Chloe felt her heart rate pick up as what her dad said replayed in her head. "What are you talking about dad?"

"Christmas night when everyone was sleep, I know she was in our home." Richard said

Chloe let out a small sigh of relief that he didn't what she was currently doing. "I-I'm sorry, I love her."

"I want you to be honest with me Chloe Beale, has she been in our house again?"

Chloe sighed, she knew she was gonna have to lie to him. "No.. She said goodbye to be that night. I haven't heard from her since, she's probably moved on already.."

"Okay, I'm trusting that you're telling me the truth."

Chloe bit her lip and let out a sigh. "Gram is calling me so I gotta go, tell mom I love her, bye." She hung up before he could say anything else and took a deep breath before walking back to the living. She smiled seeing her grandma and Beca talking and not arguing. "How's everything going here?"

Beca looked up at Chloe and smiled. "We're good here, how'd everything go with your dad?"

Chloe sighed. "I had to lie to him and I hate that I did... He knew you came over Christmas night and he wanted to know if you'd come back again."

Beca nodded. "We'll make things right, it can't be this way forever." Beca said as she grabbed her hand comfortably.

Linda smiled at them. "Everything will workout Chloe, my son just needs some time. What do you two have planned for today?"

"We're gonna go back to the hotel and swim in the indoor pool they have. Then we'll probably just relax for a bit."

Linda nodded and arched her eyebrow. "What'd you guys do last night?"

Chloe blushed and Beca smiled. "We had some amazing dinner and Chloe gave me my Christmas gifts... We talked for a bit and watched some movies."

"That's it?" Linda asked accusingly.

Beca smirked. "That's all you need to know about."

Chloe cleared her throat before her grandma could say anything. "Okay we should really get going." Chloe said as she grabbed Beca's arm and started pulling her away. "Bye gram, bye Caleb!" She shut the door once they were out of the house and dragged Beca to the car.

"Anxious much?" Beca asked with a smile.

Chloe frowned but had a small smile playing at her lips. "You are so embarrassing!"

Beca pulled Chloe into a kiss with a smile. "Yeah but you love me."

Chloe sighed and kissed Beca again. "Yeah I do."

Beca pulled up to her house with a smile. "One more short stop and we're back at the hotel, your aunt, uncle, and cousin are inside."

Chloe nodded. "Let's head in!"

Beca opened the door and walked in the house. "Hello?"

Janine poked her head out of the kitchen with a smile. "Beca! Chloe! Hey!"

Chloe smiled and went to hug her aunt. "Hey aunt Janine!"

"What are you girls up to?"

Beca followed Janine into the kitchen with a small smile. "We're just stopping past to get my swimsuit, where's Tim and Michelle?"

"Your friend Jess came over with Riley and they're showing them where the store is." Jess said with a smile. "So how are you two doing?"

Chloe sat down and looked at her aunt with a smile. "We're great, thanks for telling her about Tom by the way."

Janine laughed and sat at the table with Beca and Chloe. "I was just saying that Beca was much better in comparison to Tom and your Uncle Tim agreed."

Beca smirked. "Oh I definitely think I'm better than him." She said with a wink.

Chloe gasped and playfully slapped Beca on arm. "Beca!"

Beca laughed. "What?" She asked feigning confusion. "I was just saying how I take much better care of you than Tom."

Janine grinned at the two. "Sure you were Beca.. Do you guys want breakfast?"

"Nah we already ate, thank you though." Chloe said with a small smile. "So how are you guys liking Atlanta?"

Janine shrugged. "Haven't really seen much of it yet but it's nice, much warmer here than in New York."

Chloe nodded. "So would you consider moving here?"

Janine laughed and shook her head. "New York is home for us."

Beca smiled. "Well you're welcome to come and stay here whenever you feel like it."

"Thank you Beca."

Chloe smiled and kissed Beca. "You are so sweet."

Beca grinned and shrugged. "Your family is my family."

Janine smiled. "You've got yourself a keeper Chloe Beale, don't let this one go."

Chloe nodded. "I don't plan on it."

Beca and Chloe walked out of the house with a smile. They had spent an hour talking with Janine and enjoyed getting advice from her about how to stay happy in a relationship. "Do you wanna make a stop anywhere before we go back to the hotel?" Beca asked as they walked to the car.

Chloe shook her head. "No we ca-"

"Beca..."

Beca turned to see who said her name and eyes widened when she saw who it was. "Bumper... W-What are you doing here? How do you even know where I live?"

Bumper smirked. "You know I have my ways.."

Beca looked at Chloe and sighed. "Wait in the car."

Chloe shook her head and grabbed Beca's hand. "I'm not leaving."

Bumper rolled his eyes. "Come on I'm not gonna fucking hurt you, I need to talk to you. You know me Beca.."

Beca reluctantly nodded and walked closer to him. "What is it?"

"I need your help, being fresh out of jail is hard when you're trying to get a good job so I'm just doing a little work here and there around the neighborhood like old times..."

Beca frowned and folded her arms. "Let me guess, you got mixed up with some people and now you need help selling to pay your debt."

Bumper nodded. "You've always got my back Beca and I'll split it with you, I'm sure your grandma only gives you pocket change."

"She's not doing that." Chloe said angrily. "And she sure as hell doesn't need drug money."

Beca grabbed Chloe's arm and gently rubbed it to calm her down. "I've got this babe."

Bumper nodded. "She's got this.. So what do you say, you'll be able to buy your lovely girlfriend something nice."

Beca sighed. "My grandma died a while back Bump, it's just me and my sister so I can't get into all of that.."

"That's all the more reason to work with me, you need to be able to take care of yourself, your sister, and your girlfriend... I'm sorry about your grandma by the way."

Beca nodded. "Thanks, but I definitely don't need any help.. My grandma left me all of her money and her house. Notice my car and this.." She said gesturing to the ring on Chloe's finger. "I don't need to get into that."

Bumper frowned. "So because you're loaded with cash now I don't fit in your life? I kept you fed and clothed Beca, I gave you a roof to live under I fucking went to jail for you!"

Beca sighed and nodded. "I'm gonna help you."

Chloe's eyes widened. "Beca!"

Beca smiled reassuringly at Chloe. "I'm not gonna help you sell but I'll give you money to help you pay off your debt, I'll also look into getting you a job I know someone who owns a diner she owes me... I'd let you stay here but I've got my sister and Chloe's family is visiting at the moment."

Bumper nodded. "Thank you Beca and don't worry about my living arrangements, I'll figure something out."

Beca smiled. "I kinda owe you.. and you did take care of me out there. Bumper I don't want you ever coming here again unless I invite you. Do you have a phone?"

Bumper nodded and pulled it out. "Government phone, I get free minutes."

"Okay call me in a couple days and we'll handle this, right now I'm trying to enjoy some alone time with my girl." Beca said as she typed in her number.

Bumper smirked. "Look at you all grown up... I'm proud of you lil B."

Beca laughed. "Remember the first time you called me that?"

"Yeah you slapped the shit out of me and I never said it again." Bumper said with a grin.

Beca nodded. "Let's not relive that."

Bumper nodded and started walking away. "I'll be calling you in a few days."

"Alright, stay safe until then."

They watched as he walked away before getting into the car. "Are you sure this is a good idea Beca?"

Beca shrugged. "I'm just helping him get on his feet."

"These people could ask for a lot of money, and I know it's not really an issue but if you keep spending you might find it all gone sooner than you expect."

Beca nodded. "You're right and I've actually been thinking about getting a job... Just a little something to put in the bank as I take some out."

"I think that's a good idea Beca, any idea's where you would want to work?" Chloe asked with a small smile.

Beca shrugged. "There may or may not be a radio station I have interest in and they may or may not have interest in me.."

Chloe eyes widened. "Really?"

Beca grinned and nodded. "Yeah, they called me a little earlier trying to get me to officially be on board."

"You have to tell them yes! This could be the start of your career babe!"

Beca smiled. "I know! I'll call them tomorrow."

Chloe nodded and kissed Beca. "I'm so excited for you!"

Beca smirked. "Me too! You know I might need a sexy redheaded assistant..."

"You could do that?"

Beca nodded. "They told me I could have an assistant if I wanted."

"I'll think about it." Chloe said with a smile.

Beca quirked a brow. "I'm offering you a job that will pay good and will have me around and you'll think about it?"

Chloe shrugged. "Some people say working together can ruin a relationship and I don't think my parents would be happy with me working with you."

"Working together will not ruin our relationship and your parents don't have to know that I work there.." Beca said slowly. "Problem solved!"

Chloe nodded as a smile formed on her face. "Let's do it!"

Back in The Bahamas...

"Richard what are you doing?" Laura asked as she watched him pack their bags.

Richard folded a shirt and put it in the suitcase before looking up at her. "We're going home, we shouldn't have left in the first place Chloe is detaching herself because of Beca!"

Laura rolled her eyes and stopped him from folding anymore clothes. "Richard you're making this into something it doesn't have to be, they had sex in school, yes it's a big deal and she was punished but enough is enough. You did not have to forbid them from seeing each other. Beca is an amazing young woman and she is very responsible. You use to get along with her quite well before all of this, it's not the end of the world. She's detaching from us because you took away the love of her life s-"

"I'm sure Beca isn't the love of her life Laura, she thought Tom was too but you see how that ended.." Richard said with a scoff.

Laura sighed. "Look me in my eyes and tell me you don't think Chloe is gonna marry that girl..."

Richard frowned and looked down. "She won't if I have anything to do with it.. Maybe we should move back to New York."

"RICHARD!" Laura yelled angrily. "What the hell is wrong with you? They had sex, get over it! Beca is great and she makes our daughter happy, she went out of her way to give out entire family a good Christmas, lord knows how much money she spent, we're here in this beautiful place because of her and all she asks in return is Chloe's love and you're taking that away from her! Grow up and get over it!" Laura yelled before walking out of the room angrily.

Richard sighed and looked at his phone. He looked at the picture he still had as his background thanks to Chloe, a picture of him, Beca, and Chloe all smiling happily at each other. He couldn't even remember why he was so angry or why he wanted them to be apart so bad so he sighed and clicked Beca's name so he could call her. It went straight to voicemail and he let out a groan before talking. "Hey Beca it's me, Richard... I uh just call me back so we can talk. Bye."

Chloe moaned as Beca kissed down her body. "I thought we were going to the pool..."

Beca smirked and looked at Chloe as her fingers rested at the hem of Chloe's bikini bottom. "That was before I saw you in your bikini, the pool can wait.."

Chloe bit her lip in anticipation as Beca pulled the bottoms down her legs very slowly. "You love teasing me don't you."

Beca kissed her thighs and smiled. "It makes your release all the bette-" Beca was interrupted as her phone started to ring.

"Don't even think about getting that Rebeca.." Chloe said with a warning.

Beca nodded and pressed reject with out looking at the phone. "Let's get back to the important stuff than shall we?"

"We shall." Chloe moaned out as Beca licked her way up and down her body.

Beca hovered over Chloe with a smirk. "Are you read-" Her phone beeped and she frowned. "People only leave voicemail's if it's important..."

Chloe sighed but nodded. "Check it, it could be about Riley.."

Beca nodded and grabbed her phone. "Holy shit.."

"What!" Chloe asked as worry started to seep in.

"Y-Your dad called.."

Chloe's eyes widened. "What?"

"Yeah.. And left a voicemail."

Chloe nodded. "Listen to it!"

Beca bit her lip. "What if he's threatening to kill me, I don't want you to hear that."

"I wanna hear what he has to say to you Beca, play it!"

Beca nodded and went to her voicemail. Hey Beca it's me, Richard... I uh just call me back so we can talk. Bye.

Chloe frowned. "I don't... He didn't seem angry."

Beca nodded having the same confusion Chloe did. "I know, what could he want from me?"

"Maybe you should call him.."

Beca shook her head. "I'm not gonna do that while you're here... naked."

Chloe frowned. "Beca.."

Beca sighed. "Fine.." She dialed his number and waited for him to answer. "Stay quiet." Chloe nodded.

"Hello.."

Beca cleared her throat. "Mr. Beale.. You called?"
