Chapter 32

Beca's POV

"I really hope your dad likes me." Chloe says, looking at me in the mirror as she finishes her makeup.

"Chlo, you've already met him like a million times. You know he likes you." I chuckle as I go wrap my arms around her shoulders from behind.

"You know what I mean Beca! I hope he likes me as your girlfriend. I know he likes me as Aubrey's friend, but this is different." I give her a kiss on top of her head before moving away to go put my shoes on.

"Listen, even if he for some weird reason didn't like you as my girlfriend, I wouldn't care. I would choose you over him any day. Have you forgotten that he is on thin ice with me and Bree? One wrong move from that man and we're gone, and he knows that, so should he really want to stay in our lives he knows to be on his best behavior. Now hurry up and finish getting ready so we aren't too late." I see Chloe go to pull out her phone to check the time.

"We aren't going to be… Oh shit Beca! We're already 10 minutes late and its a 10 minute walk! I told you we didn't have enough time earlier!" Chloe starts rushing around her room to finish getting ready.

"I'm sorry I thought we had enough time! You know when you think about it it's actually your fault because I'm usually a lot faster, so you were really off your game." Chloe stops for a minute to glare at me. I put my hands up in surrender. "Alright, my fault, noted. It's weird that Bree hasn't texted me asking where I am yet."

Aubrey's POV

"Listen Bree, if it's too much we can just cancel. Everyone will understand. It's a big deal. Seeing your step-mom and new sister, introducing your family to your new girlfriend after they disowned you but then decided they wanted to be back in your life. That's a lot for anyone to handle." Stacie is sitting in front of me on her bed holding both of my hands in hers.

"I'm sorry Stacie, I want to go, I really do. I need to do this. Plus, Beca can't go alone and if I cancel then she will cancel and... We both need this… I just need to sit here a little longer."

I've been dressed and physically ready to go for about an hour. It's taken me that whole hour of sitting here with Stacie to try and mentally prepare myself for going to this dinner. It has been a lot harder than I thought it would be.

"It's ok baby, we'll sit here as long as you need. You know you don't really need to worry about what your dad thinks of me because you're the one with the upper hand in this situation. I mean he came to you begging to be back in your life, so he can't make any negative comments about me. I mean not that he could anyway because I am amazing." Stacie flips her hair to emphasize her point, causing me to laugh.

"I guess you're right."

"About being amazing, yeah I know!" I slap her arm.

"Shut up! I meant about my dad. You are amazing though." I pull her in for a kiss

"As much as I am loving this energy, we should probably get going, if you're ready. We are already about 15 minutes late for this dinner."

"Shit! We better go now."

Beca's POV

We've been sitting outside my dad's house for about 10 minutes when Aubrey and Stacie finally pull up. I check the time on my phone to see that we are a whole 30 minutes late to this dinner. I'm honestly surprised my dad hasn't called or texted us. I wonder how long we could sit out here before he would try to contact us to see where we were.

"Let's get this over with!" I announce as soon as Aubrey and Stacie exit the car.

"Let's come up with a safe word so if someone has to leave we know." Stacie says.

"Umm I don't think that's the proper use of the term safe word, babe." Aubrey says grabbing Stacie's hand while walking to the door. Chloe and I follow them.

"Ohh I know, if one of us says the word banana then we know that they need to leave so we'll come up with an excuse to go." Chloe says looking really proud of herself.

"Or you know we could just say I'm leaving because chances are if I want to leave it's because they're being assholes and I don't need to worry about offending them." I grab Chloe's hand "If they say anything that offends you or Bree, or Stace I will say whatever I want and leave. I will be done with them forever." I squeeze Chloe's hand.

Suddenly we're in front of the door and Aubrey is ringing the doorbell. She turns around to look at us, "Alright so 'Banana' or 'I'm leaving' based on the vibe of the dinner?" We all nod in agreement just as the door opens to reveal our dad.
