Welcome to the last chapter of the last part of this series. It was quite difficult to end. This series is so special to me that I wanted to give it an end it deserves. For you guys too who's been here since Part 1.

I wanted to give everyone a glimpse of their future too. So here it is, fluffy and soft bechloe.

Chapter 13: The Final One (we made it)

Beca and Chloe eventually learned to ignore the paparazzi. They didn't care anymore if they were spotted eating out or watching basketball games together or attending concerts and shows. They didn't have photos that were scandalous going around the internet and they were very careful with public displays of affection when they were out.

It was almost like everyone knew they were together at the same time everyone didn't really. Stacie as Beca's sort of PR continues to prepare draft joint statements for them to approve and get it over with.

"We have to control the narrative" is what she would always say while Beca and Chloe still doesn't feel the need to do anything.

It doesn't even bother them when they were spotted outside each other's workplaces. It just made it all the more harder to surprise each other sometimes. Beca secretly enjoyed reading things about them they were mostly good anyway. It was like her guilty pleasure.

When Chloe's work schedule allowed it, she found herself offering to pick up Beca from work. It started when she was able to surprise Beca at work one day and even if Beca won't say it out loud, Chloe knows it made her day. It doesn't happen as often as she would like though. In her most recent visit, Chloe arrived a little too early and Beca was still in a meeting.

It turned out it wasn't only Beca that was getting a surprise. As soon as Chloe stepped out of the elevator Cynthia Rose and Stacie was there to greet her. They weren't expecting her but they were definitely happy to see her.

"Chloe it's good to see you. Does Beca know you're here?"

"Is she done for the day? I wanted to surprise her."

"Beca's just in a meeting but she won't be long."

"No worries. I'm not in a rush."

Chloe would usually wait for Beca in her office but it was always nice to catch up with the girls too. She noticed there was something up with them today but couldn't figure it out. She didn't pay much attention to it either but when Chloe ran her fingers through her hair and saw how their eyes followed it everything clicked for her.

She hated assuming things but when she saw how their faces fell each time they saw it without any ring it really made her think they know something.

"What do you two lovebirds have on for tonight?"

"Nothing planned really. Just the usual staying in and having a quiet one at home."

"Speaking of your home. Beca mentioned something about a housewarming party?"

"Yes. That's happening. But we'll finalise the date once we've finished unpacking everything."

When Katie joined them, she too was not so subtle in sneaking a peek of her finger and Chloe caught the way she looks at Cynthia Rose and Stacie when there was no ring. Chloe saw how her face fell the same way Cynthia Rose's and Stacie's did when they saw it ring less.

She didn't comment on it and no one actually brought it up. She also didn't want to assume, it could be just her overthinking with this proposal that's been looming over their relationship ever since they decided to move in together.

"Hey Katie."

"Doctor Beale. Sorry. I just wanted you to know something came up and Ms. Mitchell's preparing for another meeting. I told her you were here, she said if you could meet her in her office quickly before she goes in for her meeting?"

"Of course." Chloe stood up and excused herself from everyone.


Beca was in the studio working on a track. She's been at this for hours. She looked at the time and only got more frustrated. It was another night where she's missing dinner with her family. She dropped the headphones and took a step back from the equipment. She felt like she needed that space to clear her head.

"What the hell is wrong with me? Why is this fuckin' track being so difficult?" Beca said without even trying to hide her irritation. She rarely felt this way but when she did it was always hard to get out of. She grabbed the headphones again only to slam it harder on the table. She didn't care. It was technically hers anyway.

"Hey. Easy easy."

Beca jumped when she heard Cynthia Rose. She thought everyone else left already. Though she still didn't feel slightly guilty.

"Dude. You scared me. Didn't expect anyone to still be here."

"Is everything okay? What are you still doing here?"

"What do you mean?"

Cynthia Rose pointed knowingly at the headphones. "You've been at this track all week. What's the problem?"

"What do you mean?" Beca asked again. "If I knew what the problem was then it would've been done by now." Beca didn't mean to snap at her.

Cynthia Rose knew Beca too well. "I think you're in a funk. Is everything okay at home?"

Beca looked at Cynthia Rose a bit confused. Beca's surprised that she would even suggest such a thing. Cynthia Rose took that time to grab the chair beside Beca and sat down next to her.

"She's not gonna say no, you know? There is absolutely no chance that Chloe will turn down your proposal."

"Why does everyone keep saying that? I know she won't say no to me."

"Then why haven't you asked her yet?"

"I'm waiting for the right time, okay? I just want it to be special. Why is everyone making a big deal out of this? It's not that I don't want to do it, I just haven't found the perfect time to do it."

"I think you're missing the point Boss." Cynthia Rose teases Beca. She knows it makes her queasy being called boss.

Beca doesn't say anything. She looks away from her and busied herself with the buttons in front of her. Cynthia Rose continued. "The fact that you're proposing to Chloe makes it special no matter what, it doesn't matter how, when or where you propose to her."

Beca sighes. "Yeah I know that but."

"No buts." Cynthia cut her off. "And the sooner you propose the sooner you'll get that track done. You can't do anything if you're distracted."

Beca let the words sink in. Was she really overthinking this whole thing? Did she get so distracted that she's lost sight of the real meaning of why she's proposing to Chloe?

Beca sighed. "It's not the proposal per se that's bothering me. It's all the missed opportunities. It's so frustrating. It's like there's something preventing me from asking her. There's always something that comes up. Every single fucking time."

Cynthia Rose let out a light laugh. "Maybe you're not trying hard enough."

Beca looks at her. "Are you kidding me?"

Cynthia Rose raised both her hands in defeat. "All I'm saying is that at this rate, Chloe might just beat you to it."

"What makes you say that? Do you know something I don't? Did she say something to you?"

"No no, nothing like that. It's just a feeling."

"What's wrong with me?" Beca groans as she buries her face in her hands.

Cynthia Rose pats her on the shoulder. "You're just overthinking it and that's okay. We know how much you love her and we know how much this means to you."

"We? I swear you guys have got to stop talking about me and Chloe."

"Can you blame us? You two are so entertaining. Even your fans agree. Hell even the paps and tabloids agree. I bet even your kids agree."

"Shut up, stop it. What more do you want from us?" Beca doesn't even know why she was blushing.

"You know you two will literally break the internet when you guys come out."

"A big if but yes I can't deny that."

Cynthia Rose tries to stifle a yawn. "How much longer will you be? I'm heading off soon. You should too."

"I'll be just a few more minutes."

"Perfect. I'll wait for you outside then."

"Okay. I won't be long. Give me 10."

Cynthia Rose knew how much Beca didn't like making people wait for her. It was one way to get her out of the studio at least.

Beca's been coming home just after midnight for most of this week and she hated it. She never liked working late since she had Nate and now she had Chloe too so she hated it all the more.

When she got home, the first thing she'd do was to check in on Nate then Chloe. Chloe didn't like it when Beca would kiss her or get in bed without changing first so Beca tiptoed her way to their bathroom after kissing a sleeping Nate good night.

Their room was dimly lit, just like the rest of the house. Beca had to turn the lights off as she passed. That was one of the things about Chloe's thoughtfulness; she always left a light on for Beca.

She finished washing up and was looking forward to cuddle with Chloe. But as she walked closer to their bed, she saw Chloe's side of the bed was empty. She immediately patted the pillows and blanket with her hands as if seeing it wasn't enough and it felt cold.

The first thing Beca thought was she got called into work. But that couldn't be right. There was no way Chloe would leave Nate all alone. Beca grabbed her phone to see if she had any messages from Chloe and saw there wasn't any. She dialed Chloe's number, but Chloe's phone on her bedside table lit up as soon as she did. Before she completely panicked, there was one more room in the house left to check and she almost ran to Chloe's makeshift office.

Beca was a little out of breath and stood outside Chloe's home office. She took deep breaths before opening the door slowly. The light was on which made Beca relax a bit.

She found herself releasing a big sigh of relief when she saw Chloe curled up in the sofa asleep. Her laptop was left open on the table next to a half empty wine glass. Beca chuckled at that.

She walked slowly towards Chloe and knelt beside her. She shook her head and closed her laptop slowly and set aside the wine glass. Chloe wasn't usually a light sleeper but she woke when she heard her laptop close.

Beca put an arm around Chloe's waist. "Hey. Sorry I didn't mean to wake you." Beca whispered.

"Bec? What time is it? Have you eaten?" Chloe was sitting down now, rubbing her eyes and stretching.

Beca stood up and waited for Chloe to wake up a little more. "I'm good. Come on, let's take you to bed."

Chloe wrapped her arms around Beca's shoulder and allowed Beca to drag her to their room. "I missed you."

"I missed you too. I'll try to be home earlier."

Chloe shook her head. "You don't have to. I understand it's your work."

"No. But I want to be here."

BREAKING NEWS! Bechloe is engaged! Beca Mitchell was spotted wearing an engagement ring. Photo credits to realclassylady. At this time, there are no pictures of Doctor Chloe showing off a ring and the couple has been mumm on social media. We would like to invite everyone to keep an eye out. Despite there being no confirmation from either parties, there had been an outpour of congratulations for the two.

It's been a slow process with their work schedules and all but Beca and Chloe finally finished 'moving in'. They have unpacked the last box and stowed it away.

Chloe was dusting off her hands. "And that's the last of them. Welcome home Bec!" Chloe said with her arms now wide open as if presenting the lounge area.

"I don't think that's everything Chlo. There's one thing missing."

Chloe looks around and thinks. She even goes through every room in her head but she couldn't figure out what was missing.

"What is it?"

"I don't know Chlo. You tell me." Beca smirked at Chloe.

Chloe sighed. "I'm too tired to think. Whatever it is. I still think we're done." Chloe said falling into their couch. "You better be happy with this place cause we are not moving for a while."

"I wouldn't mind it as long as it's with you." Beca cracked open two bottles of beer and handed one to Chloe as she settled on the couch next to her.

Chloe clinked bottles with Beca and they drank together. She put her other free hand on Beca's leg out of habit. Beca liked the feeling of Chloe's hand there. They sat there in silence and Beca started playing with Chloe's fingers. She lingered a bit on her ring finger.

"When I had Nate and you weren't in my life, I didn't really see myself ending up with anyone else. I was hoping it was Jesse but we all know what happened to that. So I focused on my work and Nate. They were all I had left. Call it whatever you want but it was like I was punishing myself sometimes. I just felt like it was exactly what I deserved."

"Bec we talked about this."

"No no I know. I promise I have good reason for bringing it up."

Chloe then turns to her and held Beca's gaze for a bit. "And what's that?"

"You'll see."

Chloe stared and Beca could only stare at her back. She couldn't resist and leaned in to kiss her. Sometimes there were not enough words to express what she's feeling and Beca hoped her kisses conveyed those unspoken.

When they pulled back, Beca added. "You know I read somewhere that anyone who loves must know how to lose herself and find herself again."

"Oh here we go."

"What?"

Chloe catches herself before she rolls her eyes. Instead, she looks at Beca as if saying 'go on'.

"I love you so much and I will forever be grateful for this second chance. I don't know how I got so lucky and I've been kicking myself everyday since I thought about it. All I know was I wanted it to be special. I didn't know whether I should go all out or surprise you but every time I had something planned, there was always something that came up, there was always something to ruin the moment. And honestly it has gotten to a point where."

Chloe was in the middle of drinking her beer when she choked on her drink. Then she started laughing at herself interrupting Beca. Beca was not expecting Chloe to be choking on her drink or laughing right now so she looked at Chloe almost slack-jawed. She couldn't believe what was happening.

"Yeah exactly that. You laughing and choking on your beer when I'm trying to be serious are the things that ruin a moment."

Chloe just kept on laughing. She had her head pushed back and her whole body was shaking from her laughs. "I'm sorry."

"Are you okay? What's so funny?"

Watching Chloe laugh her heart off, Beca couldn't help but join in and laugh along with her. She didn't even know what they were laughing about. How could Beca resist when Chloe was being adorable.

"Stop it. Be serious. You're killing me here." Beca felt like crying herself. Sometimes she just wants to grab Chloe's finger and put the ring on to get it over with.

"Why are you laughing?" Chloe asked Beca the same question.

"I don't know. I was just copying you."

They fell into a comfortable silence after all the laughing. Originally, Beca wanted her proposal to come as a surprise to Chloe and catch her off guard. She was waiting for that 'perfect moment'. She's slowly realising that those moments don't exist. Perfect moments don't just happen out of nowhere; they are the effects of what they make of it. It's them who make it to be perfect for them and not waiting for that perfect moment to present itself.

"Remember when you kept asking me hypothetical questions. I have a couple for you now." Chloe spoke up and Beca's whole body had an instant reaction upon hearing Chloe say those words.

When Chloe saw she got Beca's full attention, she continued. "Hypothetically, do you want to get married someday?"

"Of course I do. To you." Beca doesn't know why she felt like she had to make that clear. "Do I not give off that vibe?"

Chloe chuckled at Beca's answer. "Well it better be to me."

"There's no one else I'd rather marry. And in this hypothetical situation where we get married, I'm the one who proposed to you." Beca was feeling braver in the pretense of a make-believe scenario.

At the same time she was hit with a little bit of déjà vu. She's hid behind hypothetical questions and scenarios as a coping mechanism for her blossoming feelings for Chloe all those years ago.

Chloe didn't expect Beca to take the bait so easily. If Chloe was truly honest with herself, she was happy to wait for Beca. But it has now become almost ridiculous how Beca couldn't just ask the question. It's not that she was done waiting for Beca but if Beca doesn't get to it tonight, she might not be able to stop herself from asking it herself. She was seriously thinking about the pros and cons of her actually doing just that.

"And how would you propose? Hypothetically." Chloe had to add the last bit in haste. She was scared that she pushed it too far and she meets Beca's gaze as she waited for her response.

Beca was in her own head thinking about the many missed opportunities and the increasing number of times that she considered to be the perfect time for her to propose.

"Remember when we were back at the Hamptons and we were watching the sun rise together for the first time."

Chloe sighed and rested her head on Beca's shoulder. "The sun rises everyday you know. It's part of it's magic."

"You know what fuck it." Beca then stood up and reached for the necklace she's wearing.

Chloe watched Beca struggle removing her necklace. "Do you need help with that?"

"No. Stay there. I almost got it." Beca wasn't sure how much longer it took her to unclasp the necklace. Her shaking hands were not helping at all.

Chloe painfully watched Beca struggle with the clasps but remembers something. "Okay. You wait there too."

"What? Chloe where are you going?"

Chloe ran out of their living room and up the stairs. Beca couldn't protest, as she was too busy with her necklace. When she finally unclasped it, she could hear Chloe running down the stairs already. Without thinking, she went down on one knee.

Chloe was slightly breathless when she got back down. She was taking big breaths when she turned the corner but she froze when she saw Beca.

"Bec?"

"Will you marry me, Chloe Beale? No more monologues and long speeches or waiting for sunrises. I love you. Will you marry me?"

Chloe almost skipped to Beca and grabbed her face to kiss her. They were both crying and they could taste their tears in their kisses.

"I thought you'd never ask."

"Wait." Beca pulled back and finally put the ring on Chloe's finger. "I love you Chlo."

"Now will you marry me?" Chloe held the ring in front of Beca.

"What?"

"I lied before. Chicago never asked me to safe keep a ring for him."

Beca just offered her hand nodding and let Chloe put it on. She didn't trust herself with words right now. Chloe slipped on the ring and kissed her hand. They were both laughing and crying and swaying around their living room in each other's arms to music only they can hear.


It was another weekend where Beca and Chloe will have the boys over and they made plans to pick them up on Friday after school. Unfortunately for them, Chloe got called into work that same day. So that left Beca to entertain the boys on her own.

To make matters worse for Beca, Jesse called her at the last minute asking for a swap. She doesn't really say no to these things especially when they had nothing in particular planned for this weekend. She said yes to the swap as long as it was good with Nate too.

So here she was in her work clothes, a little too fancy for just picking your kid up from school, waiting for Jamie to step out of the school gates. She could feel eyes on her from some of the parents that did recognise her but she kept her eyes on the door.

She saw Nate first and beside him was Jamie. She waved at them and Nate ran towards her.

"Hey bud."

"Hi mom." Nate then saw Jesse walking from behind Beca. "Dad?"

"Hey buddy." Jesse then looks at Jamie too who he has met several times before. "Jamie good to see you."

"Hi Nate's dad." Jamie gave him a small wave.

Nate then gave Beca a questioning look. "He asked for a swap. I'm okay with it if you are of course."

Nate then nodded. "I don't really mind either way. Are you going to be okay Jamie?"

"Yeah for sure. We'll miss you though but we're gonna be alright."

"Are you sure you're okay with it Ma?"

"I'm sure. You go have fun with your dad and I'll see you Sunday."

Jesse looks at Beca and she knows what it means. "Or Monday. I'll make sure to pick you up."

"Thanks Becs." Jesse reached up to Nate's hand and started walking the opposite direction, leaving her with Jamie.

They just both stood there, shifting their weight from one foot to another. Beca could see Jamie was looking around for Chloe.

"So I guess it's just you and me Jame. You good to go?"

"Where's mommy Chloe?" Jamie finally asked.

"She uh got called into work. She hopes to be back later tonight though. Wanna start walking? The car's that way." Beca points to somewhere.

Jamie just nodded. Beca's not sure whether Jamie was disappointed that Chloe's not here or that he's stuck with just her or both.

Beca cleared her throat again and offered her hand out. "I mean I'm not Chloe but you can hold my hand."

Jamie looks at it and Beca can see that he's hesitating, she starts to put herself in Chloe's shoes, 'what would Chloe do?' is what she would keep asking to her self. Chloe wouldn't hesitate and just go for it. So that's exactly what Beca does. She bends down a little and grabs his hand. He doesn't pull away and she can swear she saw a little smile there.

"This okay?"

Beca looked down at him waiting for a response. He finally gave in and looked up to her nodding with a smile.

Beca was happy about that but as she looked around, she saw all the attention they were getting. "Sorry about the looks that we're getting. We're almost at the car."

Jamie just shrugged. Beca was actually intrigued that he was unbothered.

"And it appears that doesn't bother you at all?" Beca said to him with raised eyebrows.

"Not really. We get stared at a lot as well when I'm with Mommy Chloe too. I'm used to it."

"Really? And it doesn't bother her?"

Jamie seemed to consider it. "I don't know. We never actually talked about it. I don't think so."

Beca laughed a little at what he just said. It won't surprise Beca if it turned out that Chloe wasn't even aware of all the attention she was getting. Their conversation was cut when they were near the car and Fred stepped out.

"You've met Fred, right?" Beca asked Jamie but she could tell by the way Fred was looking at him that they already knew each other.

"Yes I have. Hey Fred."

"Jamie." Fred gave him a nod. "Always a pleasure."

They were now standing awkwardly outside the car. Beca cleared her throat – again, she's lost count by now – and opened the door. "Uhm. After you?"

Jamie gets in first and mumbles a thank you. Beca mentally slaps herself for being awkward before getting in. She does that some more when they were in the car. She just didn't know what to say.

They were less than halfway when she thinks she heard Jamie say something. "Sorry can you repeat that." She said leaning a little towards him.

"There was something I wanted to ask you."

"Of course anything."

Jamie looked down at his hands. He busied himself with a few loose threads from his shorts. "Is it okay if I call you Auntie Bec? Or will that make you sad? Especially that Nate is now calling Chloe mommy too. I don't want to make you sad and I don't want mommy Chloe to feel bad. I can work on calling you mom too."

Beca almost melted. "Auntie Bec would be perfect."

"Really?"

"Yeah dude, just Beca would've been okay too but I think I like Auntie Bec more."

"You do?"

"Yeah. Now can I ask you something?"

"Sure."

"You like me right?"

Jamie then blushed before he started laughing to himself. "What?"

"I mean, you know. You're okay with this, just us two hanging out."

"I would prefer to have mommy Chloe with us but I guess this is okay too."

Jamie was being playful and Beca finally felt they were getting somewhere. "Challenge accepted kid. Challenge accepted."

Beca and Jamie prepared dinner together that night and Beca didn't call him out on it but Jamie was singing while they were working in the kitchen. She stopped herself from singing along with him cause he might not even realise he's been singing in the first place.

Chloe called them to say that she won't be home tonight and we'll be there first thing in the morning. Jamie was okay with it but his face said different. Jamie really was Chloe's knight in shining armour in many ways.

They were hanging out in front of the TV with Jamie browsing through Netflix and Beca thought of a good bonding activity with Jamie.

"Hey Jame. I just remembered I needed your help with something. If that's okay with you, we can still watch a movie after I don't mind."

"Help with what?"

"Let me show you. Follow me."

Beca led Jamie to her home studio. She briefly described her equipment and what they were for.

"Wow. Nate always talked about these."

"Really?"

"Yeah. He loves to watch you work."

"Come on. Sit here." Beca tapped the seat next to her.

Jamie sat down with wide eyes. He looked around the buttons all over the equipment and the screens. Beca put on headphones on both of them and Jamie had a goofy grin. He was almost bouncing in his seat.

"I wanted you to listen on something I've been working on. Now, it's a work in progress so be nice."

"I'm sure it's amazing already."

Beca prepared the track and watched Jamie's reactions to it.

"Do you like it?"

"Yeah. It's good."

"But?"

"But it's missing the words."

Beca couldn't help but smile at Jamie's answer. "Exactly."

Jamie nodded but didn't really understand.

"I was wondering if you would sing with me? I mean I've been working on this track and I've been trying to figure out what's been missing. Chloe tells me you two always sing together. I mean obviously I don't have Chloe's voice and her singing is so much better than mine and your voices probably blend better."

"But I don't know the song."

"We can learn it together."

"Okay."

"Okay?"

Jamie nodded and Beca grabbed the lyrics to put in front of them.

Chloe had close to zero sleep. She was like a zombie walking into their house. She smelled the bacon as soon as she stepped in and her tummy rumbled.

She could hear laughing in the kitchen and saw Beca and Jamie cooking with their backs facing her.

"Well aren't you two a sight for sore eyes."

Beca and Jamie both got startled and faced her. The first thing Chloe noticed is how they were both wearing matching aprons. Jamie placed the bowl he was holding on the counter and ran to Chloe.

"Mommy Chloe!"

"Hey little man. I missed you."

Jamie then pulls on Chloe to take a seat at one of the bar stools on the counter. "Sit sit. Auntie Bec and I cooked breakfast."

Chloe raised an eyebrow and looked at Beca. "Really, is that so? Well I'm famished. I would love some."

Beca knew Chloe caught on the new name Jamie had for her and just gave Chloe a light shrug. "Coffee?"

"Yes please. Thanks." Chloe then looks around. "Where's Nathaniel? Still asleep?"

"Jesse actually asked to swap weekends last minute."

"Oh. So what have you two been up to then?"

Chloe really didn't know but the way Jamie's face lights up as he got ready to tell her all about it said it all for her.

BREAKING NEWS! Bechloe has been living together for more than a year now. Right under our noses, sneaky sneaky! We also got a hold of leaked photos from their secret wedding. Stay tuned.

"Who's going to be your maid of honour? Have you decided yet?"

"It's a toss up between Cynthia Rose and Stacie."

Chloe just nods and Beca continued. "What about you? How did the rest of the gang feel when you said you were choosing Aubrey?"

"They were very understanding. Aubrey's the one who's in the same state as me so it was a no brainer."

"Lucky you."

Chloe hummed. They were folding sheets on a Saturday morning.

"What if I choose Jesse to spite them both?"

Chloe stopped folding. "Seriously?"

Beca didn't even realise that she actually said what she said. "Fuck I'm so sorry. I didn't mean that. But he is going to be there you know."

"I know. Sorry I didn't mean to react like that."

"No it's okay." Beca cleared her throat. "Right. So anyway do you want to do pros and cons with me if I choose Cynthia Rose over Stacie?"

Their wedding was four months away. They decided to have an intimate garden wedding of less than fifty or not more than a hundred guests depending on who you ask. The guest list wasn't finalized yet but some invitations were ready to be sent out; mostly on Chloe's side of the list.

"I don't know how you did it Chlo." Beca said who was getting frustrated preparing her list of people to invite.

"I don't know what you mean Bec. Who else am I supposed to invite?"

"I don't know, more med school buddies or colleagues maybe. You literally have fifteen people on your list including plus ones and your parents. How?"

"Yeah, cause those people are the ones closest to me. That's exactly what an intimate wedding means. Not everyone invites their electrician or mechanic or the delivery guys to their wedding."

"Hey. I've known Phil for as long as I've been here in LA. I didn't know you didn't like him. I thought you guys got along. You were very happy when he fixed the outlets in your office. Were you faking it this whole time?"

"That's not the point. It's not a question of whether I like him or not."

"So you don't like him? Wow."

"I didn't say I didn't like him. I like Phil." Chloe noticed how her arms were flailing around indicating she was getting very annoyed. She took a deep breath. "You know what, you're being impossible right now. I have a surgery to go to. I've done my bit so I'll leave you to decide on your bit. Go home, have a think about it, take a walk I don't know. I'll see you later, okay?"

Beca just huffed and focused back on her laptop typing out what Chloe could only assume were guests she wanted to invite to their wedding. Chloe grabbed her white coat and kissed Beca on the top of her head. She left without either of them saying a word.

With three months to go and only the venue, officiant and the guest list set, they decided to hire a wedding planner, Amber. As soon as they had Amber, she also came with a photographer, videographer, florist and caterer. She would've organised a band as well but Beca wanted to handle everything to do with music.

"I'm so sorry. I tried to get here as quick as I can." Chloe leans into kiss Beca, who was not very happy with her right now.

They had a busy day ahead of them today filled with dress fittings, cake tasting, choosing their wedding bands and a meeting with Amber. First stop was cake tasting and Chloe arrived thirty minutes late.

"Funny. When you insisted on hiring a wedding planner I didn't expect you to not want to make any decisions about our wedding." Beca said with her arms crossed.

"Don't start Bec. I'm here now ready to literally make decisions." Chloe said pointing to the different cakes in front of them.

"Okay ladies, should we start with the classic vanilla buttercream?" The lady in her apron cut in their conversation holding out a slice of cake.

Everyone expected that between the two of them, Chloe would be most likely to become Bridezilla even Chloe herself thought that but to everyone's surprise it was Beca who turned out to be more of the Bridezilla and the worst part of it all was that she won't even admit she's turned into one.

"Please just look at it one more time. It's not the same. This wasn't the arrangement we chose. Even the colours are off."

"Bec sweetie. It's the same one. I don't have to look at it to know."

"No I swear this one looks a bit yellowish, almost a bit beige. Are these even roses? Do these look like roses to you?"

"That doesn't even make any sense. You're not making any sense. It's probably the lighting. They're white roses. Trust me."

"Yeah but look at this photo and now compare it with the actual one." Beca was holding the bouquet in one hand and her phone in the other.

Chloe shrugged. "They look the same to me."

"Oh come on Chlo. Be serious. Look at that." Beca zoomed in on the picture and showed Chloe again. "And don't get me started on those napkins."

Chloe looked around the room apologetically as she almost drags Beca to a corner and started whispering. "Bec listen to me. It's the same and if it's a tiny bit different, we need to communicate our specific instructions and stop shoving pictures in peoples' faces. Set aside your phone and that photo and look at the actual thing. I like it. What about you?"

"What's the point in sending them what we want if they won't prepare it the way we want it to look?" Beca hissed back.

"Beca."

"I can't help it. I had my heart set out on what it looked like in the photo."

"Okay so if you like that photo so much then I suggest you get that printed out and hold it at our wedding day."

"Wow you're being so mature right now. I expected more from you Chloe."

It was close to about a month to go before their wedding day and everything was just about ready. Beca and Chloe found themselves in their own home offices one night. Chloe rarely had her door shut and she could see in her peripheral Beca was leaning on the doorframe.

"Are you getitng cold feet? Be honest." Beca blurted out without entering Chloe's office.

"What?" Chloe swung her chair to face Beca.

"It's okay. It's totally normal. I think it's important we talk about these things and communicate our feelings with one another."

"Bec I don't know what sort of self-help book you've been reading this time but no I'm not getting cold feet."

"I think that's exactly what someone who's getting cold feet would say."

"This is ridiculous. What made you say I'm getting cold feet?"

"It's your reluctance to choose anything, you keep hesitating. Like when we were choosing our wedding bands the other day."

"It was just hard to make a decision right away. I'm sorry if that wasn't fast enough for you."

"What about the flowers and the motif?"

"What about them?"

"Just admit it Chlo. It's okay we can talk about it. I'm not mad."

"No I'm not getting cold feet. In fact, I would marry you right here right now if I could."

"Oh there it is. So which part of the wedding do you not approve of?"

"I see what's happening here." Chloe leaned back and crossed her arms. "You're nitpicking. Stop it. I understand it's a stressful time for all of us so I'm gonna let this one slide."

"Newsflash Chloe, I don't think you're stressed at all and that's the problem."

"Just cause I stress differently than you doesn't mean that I'm not just as stressed. Maybe I'm just handling it better."

"Of course you would."

"Beca. Again nitpicking. Stop it and get your cute butt to bed. I'll follow. Or I don't know do some work, I have to watch some more surgery videos. Now if you'll excuse me." Chloe turned back her attention to her laptop.

Beca sighed. "Cuddles in an hour?"

"Perfect."

Chloe could see in her peripheral again how Beca dragged herself out of her office. She could hear Beca shouting her a quick I love you and she could only roll her eyes and shake her head with how Beca was acting.

Two weeks before their wedding, Beca was brushing her teeth getting ready for bed when Chloe went into the bathroom with her. This wasn't unusual, as Chloe would usually brush her teeth at the same time beside Beca. It was part of their nightly routine.

But instead of grabbing her own toothbrush, she hugged Beca from behind and started to plant kisses on her neck. Her hands were roaming under Beca's shirt too and it was sending tingles all over Beca's body. She almost choked on the white foam in her mouth. She started to spit it out and gargled.

Chloe doesn't say anything when met with Beca's raised eyebrows through the mirror as she wiped her face.

"I'm not complaining about all this but what's up?"

Chloe shook her head to answer Beca's question and Beca kept her eyes on Chloe. "I've been thinking about our wedding."

Beca felt Chloe bite on her neck. The sensitive spot just below where her ear and jaw met. Beca was biting her lip now. She leaned back and tilted her head to one side to give Chloe more access as she trailed more kisses on her neck. She didn't even try to quiet the moan that escaped from her.

"And?" Beca asked a little breathless. She knew whatever Chloe was doing was going to leave marks but she didn't care.

Chloe kept sucking and biting on Beca's neck until she was satisfied she had Beca's full attention. Then she kissed Beca on the cheek and rested her chin on her shoulder. "How do you feel about spending the night before our wedding apart?"

It takes a while for Beca to process Chloe's question. Her eyebrows furrowed when she slowly understood what she was implying and Beca turns around to face her. She doesn't say anything right away and Chloe can't tell what she's thinking. It's like she was still riding on the high of Chloe sucking on her neck. Chloe kept Beca pinned to the sink though and she closes the gap between them.

When they pulled back and Beca still hasn't said anything, Chloe continued. "As I was saying. I was thinking that we should book somewhere separately to sleep the night before the wedding. So after the rehearsal dinner we each go our separate ways to our own hotel rooms."

"Why? Chlo if you're going for the whole build up thing for the big reveal that won't be necessary. Obviously."

"Come on Bec, think about the excitement and the anticipation. I think it'll be fun."

"It's not fun to miss you."

"Think about the mind blowing sex we'll have after."

"That's not fair. We've talked about using sex as wager."

"Fine." Chloe pulled back a bit and unbuttoned three buttons of her pyjama top.

"What are you doing?" Beca caught herself staring at Chloe's hands playing with her buttons and she bit her lip.

"You choose then. Either we stop having sex from tonight until our wedding night or we spend the night before our wedding apart. Those are your only choices."

"Chloe. That's literally using sex as wager."

Chloe just shrugged. Her pajama top all undone. She then pulls on Beca's shirt over her head and Beca raises her hands to make it easier for Chloe to rid of her shirt. Beca tried so hard to resist Chloe and to think straight. She knew this was a trap, a way for Chloe to get what she wanted and she was falling for it.

Beca shivered at the contact when she felt Chloe's hands on her. "Oh you are evil."

Chloe continued to tease Beca with her touches, squeezing and light grazing of her breasts until her hand was cupping Beca's left breast already and her thumb lightly flicking her nipple causing Beca to jerk.

Beca bit her lips harder and inhaled through her nose. "Do you really want to spend the night before our wedding apart?"

Chloe stepped closer to Beca, closing the gap between them some more. Her leg in between Beca's legs pressing onto her centre and her hands were massaging both her breasts, making continuous circle motions. She watched Beca squirm in front of her and Beca grabbed hold of the sink for balance. "Do you really not want to have sex tonight?" Chloe purred.

"How the fuck is this fair?"

"How the fuck are you still fighting this?" Chloe asked her amused and before Beca could roll her eyes, Chloe dipped in and put one of Beca's breasts in her mouth and started sucking and flicking her nipple with her tongue this time.

"Fuck Chlo." Beca instantly put a hand over her mouth to cover up the sound of her moans. Her other hand is still tightly gripping the sink.

She let out a squeak when Chloe bit a little before letting go of her boob and started trailing kisses up to her neck and ended with a peck on her lips. "I need a decision Bec."

"Are you serious?"

Chloe nodded.

"You're being beyond real right now. I can't even think."

Chloe steps back but as soon as she does Beca is reaching for the collar of her top and starts pulling her back to her. "Fine you win. My only condition is that we stay in the same hotel."

"Deal."

Beca removes Chloe's top by pushing it off her shoulders. "Now can I ask why it's so important to you that we're apart the night before?"

"It wasn't really that important. I enjoyed teasing you more."

Beca was relieved. "Oh so does that mean that we –"

"Nope. No take backsies."

Their wedding was tomorrow. The rehearsal dinner was a success and at the end of it, Beca and Chloe went into separate cars to go to the hotel Chloe's booked for them. Beca felt silly when she started tearing up as she watched Chloe walk away from her to get into her own car.

"What the hell is wrong with me? It's one night and we're literally getting married tomorrow."

She looked around the lobby when she arrived hoping to find Chloe. Chloe wouldn't even tell her which room she was at cause she didn't want Beca to cheat. As if she would Beca wanted to say but she knew she totally would go to Chloe's room.

The only thing she got was a selfie from Chloe wearing a robe to prove that she was at the same hotel. Beca stared at the photo all night. She was tossing and turning in her bed trying to sleep. She grabbed her phone again and texted Chloe.

As soon as Beca saw the dots that meant Chloe was typing she quickly dialed her number.

She was glad Chloe answered after a couple of rings. "Hey."

"Hey you."

"Can I just say this is a terrible idea?" Beca really did hate the idea. She was hoping Chloe would not push through with it.

"Oh come on, it's not that bad."

"I can't sleep and I miss you. I'm miserable." Beca tried to hide a sniffle. She really was getting teary. Their wedding was tomorrow she felt like she could get a free pass at being emotional.

Chloe giggled. "Stop being dramatic Bec."

Beca sighed but she liked hearing Chloe's laugh. "So are we not going to talk about it?"

"About what?"

"About me being all psycho during these wedding preparations?"

"You, psycho? When? I wouldn't have been able to tell."

Beca groaned. "I'm surprised you still wanna get married to me after seeing that. Ugh, everyone probably thought I was a bitch."

"That's okay. Don't worry about it too much. I charmed them all for the both of us."

"They're all probably wondering why you're marrying me."

"Who cares?"

"I can't wait to be married to you, Chlo."

"Met too, Bec."

"Now is there any chance that you've changed your mind about tonight?"

Chloe laughed. "No chance. It's just for a few more hours."

"It was worth a try."

"I'm going to try to sleep now. You good?"

"Not really but I won't stop you from sleeping. I do have a weird request."

Chloe perked up at that. "What weird request?"

"Can you like not end the call and we just stay on the line until we both fall asleep."

"That's not a weird request at all especially from my soon to be wife. How come you're never this clingy when I'm at work?"

"That's different."

Chloe yawned. "I'm falling asleep."

"Go ahead."

Beca waited and listened. She could hear the crackling sounds and maybe a bit of Chloe's light snores.

"Chloe?" Beca whispered. She didn't want to wake Chloe but she couldn't help but think how easy it was for Chloe to fall asleep while here she was struggling.

She pressed her phone to her ears listening closely to Chloe's breathing or anything Chloe really. The knocks on her door made her jump. Her heart started racing. She looks to her phone again. "Could it be?"

There were knocks again. Beca jumped off the bed and almost ran to the door. Her face fell when she saw through the peephole that it was housekeeping.

Beca opened the door. "Sorry to bother you Ms. Mitchell but here are the extra pillows you requested."

"But I didn't request extra pillows?"

"Oh. I'm so sorry." The hotel employee wasn't sure what to do and Beca felt bad about it.

"You know what it's okay. Thank you." She grabbed the pillows. "What's two more pillows, right?"

"Thank you Ms. Mitchell. Have a good night."

Beca smiled at him and closed her door. She was hugging the two pillows and started walking back to her bed. She hasn't taken three steps from the door when there was another knock.

She opened the door. "Yes? More pillows?" Beca joked.

"Something like that."

Beca dropped the pillows when she heard Chloe's voice. She looked up to see Chloe wiggling her eyebrows at her and she literally threw herself at Chloe. Chloe almost fell backwards before she found her balance catching Beca and laughing.

"Wow. You really missed me that much."

"What are you doing here?"

"You sounded like you were crying on the phone and I didn't want you to have puffy eyes tomorrow at our wedding."

Beca was crying anyway and Chloe wiped her tears. "Why are you crying? Come on you go back inside. I just wanted to check up on you." Chloe teased.

"Don't you dare." Beca shook her head and wrapped herself around Chloe again. She almost dragged Chloe inside her room. "There's no way I'm letting you go."

Chloe was laughing all the way to the bed. Once they were lying down, Chloe lifted Beca's arm and nestled to her side. She kissed Beca's cheek and yawned.

"This is more like it." Beca said.

"Night Bec. I love you."

"Love you too."

"And you were right." Chloe said with her eyes closed already. "This was a terrible idea."

Beca chuckled at that and held Chloe tighter. She sighed in relief and is able to finally slowly give in to sleep now that she had Chloe in her arms.

It was less than half an hour before their wedding. Chloe was all ready in her wedding gown and her hair and make up was all done. She had a few minutes to herself before everything. In another room somewhere, Beca was in the exact same boat. There was so much build up until this moment of calmness.

The both of them looked back at their journey; all the ups and downs, the dating, the heartbreaks, the exes, their unexpected reunion, proposing, planning the wedding. Whoever said that these memories come crashing down on you when you start walking down the aisle was very wrong.

Who knew how long they were just standing there. One staring at herself in the mirror while the other at her reflection on the window. It wasn't long until someone would knock at their doors and let them know their cars were ready.

Beca and Chloe arrived in separate cars with their parents. It felt like they were both underwater and the only way they can come up for air is when their eyes finally find each other's and holding each other's hands.

"Alright. Everything is in order. We only need to know one last thing." Amber, their wedding planner, was seated across from them in the conference room.

"What's that?" Chloe asked.

"The entrance. Who walks down the aisle and who waits at the altar."

"Oh." Chloe paused. "We haven't really talked about that."

"Chloe will walk down the aisle." Beca said.

Chloe turned to look at her. "But what about you? I think we have to discuss this more. Can we reschedule another time?" Chloe asked Amber.

"I can't tomorrow but what about sometime in the weekend?"

"Yup that works for us."

"Chlo, I don't think there's anything to talk about. I want you to walk down the aisle."

"Bec there's really no rush and I really feel like we have to talk about this."

Beca was reluctant. She wanted the preparations to be one hundred percent done. She felt like she couldn't relax if they haven't finalized everything.

Chloe stood up and shook Amber's hand. "Thanks for your time today. We'll see you Saturday."

"It was my pleasure. I'll see you then."

As soon as they were both inside the car

"Chlo I don't know why you're making this into such a big deal."

"I don't know why it isn't for you. Everything else seemed to be so why not this one too."

"To be honest. I've never actually given it much thought."

"That's why I want us to talk about it. Why does that upset you?"

"On the contrary I think it's upsetting you."

Chloe scoffed at this and held her tongue. Their emotions were running high and she thought it was best if they continued their conversation at home. Instead she reached for the radio and turned the volume up.

Once parked outside their house, Beca pulled the hand brake and turned to Chloe.

"Look Chlo, all I know is that I want to marry you and when I think about our wedding day, I see myself anxiously standing at the altar staring straight ahead waiting for you to appear. I'm waiting to be blown away by you and nothing will prepare me for that. Then I'll be holding my breath until we're face to face. All the while trying not to cry."

Chloe's face softened as she listened to Beca's perspective.

"I didn't want you to think that I haven't thought about this when I said I haven't given it much thought. I have. A lot actually and that's why I said what I said."

"I wasn't thinking that." Chloe finally said. "Come on, let's talk more inside." She added unbuckling her seatbelt.

Beca nodded and followed. As soon as they were inside, Chloe's silence was killing Beca.

Beca reached for Chloe's wrist to stop her from walking ahead of her. "I'm really sorry that I upset you."

Chloe held Beca's face with both her hands and kissed her softly. "I'm not upset. It's just that I realised how different we picture our wedding day. But that's okay it's not a bad thing. There are no wrong answers here." Chloe quickly added when she felt Beca stiffen.

She squeezed Beca's hand to assure her. "I imagined all the different scenarios, me walking down the aisle like how you described it but then I felt like I wanted to see you walk down the aisle too. So I imagined the feeling of you walking towards me and we look at each other as if there's no one else there."

Beca smiled at the image but she doesn't say anything.

"You want to know which scenario I liked most?"

Beca was nervous all of a sudden. What if Chloe wanted her to walk down the aisle? Would she insist on what she wanted, which was for Chloe to walk down the aisle or will she give in to Chloe's wishes?

"It's neither of those."

"What?"

"I haven't really worked out how we're going to do it but I want you to think about this. We walk down the aisle together, hand in hand, just you and me and we're laughing and crying too for sure. We're both nervous and we're squeezing each other's hands trying to be brave for one another. But I want to be next to you."

Beca wasn't expecting that. She never even considered a third option.

"I didn't know we could do that." She admitted.

Chloe laughed. Finally there was no more tension between them. "It's our wedding, we make the rules. I thought you'd know that by now."

BREAKING NEWS! Bechloe is pregnant… and it's a girl! They have been keeping their relationship very private and low-key since getting back together and the two tying the knot almost two years ago now. But to everyone's surprise, Beca Mitchell made the announcement on her personal instagram.

With shaking fingers, Chloe gingerly picked up their baby girl from Beca's arms. Beca has known Chloe for the longest time, but she has never seen this expression on Chloe's face before. She was watching Chloe hold their baby and Beca was smiling but suddenly everything went black. That's the last thing she remembers.

Chloe was holding their baby girl and was swaying a little. She seemed so tiny in her arms but she was perfect.

"Hi Annie, mommy's here. You gave your mom such a hard time." Chloe was teasing Beca but froze when she looked up to see an unconscious Beca laying on her bed.

"Bec? Beca?"

She immediately pressed the buttons calling for the nurses. Several nurses went in and paged the doctor. One nurse took Annie away and another led Chloe out of the room.

Everything went quiet and slow for Chloe. She was usually better at situations like these at her own capacity as a doctor but when it came to Beca, she couldn't move. She remembers resisting and not wanting to leave her side until she felt hands around her shoulder. She didn't even realise she was shaking.

Chloe fell asleep on the edge of Beca's bed. Her head was resting on Beca's arm not wanting to miss the moment she wakes up. Beca was slowly getting back into her senses and she could feel something heavy on her arm. She cleared her throat first and slowly opened her eyes. Chloe jolted up when she felt the slightest movement from Beca.

"Hey. Welcome back."

"How long was I out?" Beca croaked. Her throat felt dry.

"A few hours."

"Oh."

Chloe then hit Beca on the shoulder. "Ow. What was that for?"

"Don't ever do that to me ever again." Chloe sniffled. She was in the verge of crying.

"I'm sorry I was just probably tired. Where's Annie? Are you okay?"

"She's fine. She's sleeping now. How are you feeling?"

"Like I've been run over by a truck."

Chloe wanted to say something but no words came out. When Beca saw her, all she could do was open her arms for Chloe.

"Hey come here. It's okay. I'm okay."

"You really scared me."

"I know, I know. I'm sorry. I'm okay now I promise."

Chloe then realised how silly she was being. "No, I'm sorry. You're the one who just gave birth and lost consciousness. You're not supposed to be the one comforting me."

"That's nonsense and you know it."

"You should go back to sleep and get more rest. We'll see our baby girl first thing in the morning."

"You too. Thanks for being here."

"Of course. Where else would I be?"


Chloe found that her favourite time is when they're all gathered around the table, whether it's for breakfast lunch or dinner. The boys were inseparable and if it wasn't Jamie staying over their place it was Nate going over to theirs.

Chloe remained full time at the hospital and if she and Beca were too busy, Linda and Ben were happy to watch the kids and have them for a night or two.

Annie was sometimes difficult in a sense that she was clingy to both her moms. It's like they were both her favourite and she couldn't decide who she liked more so she wants them both all to herself.

Beca got off work earlier than usual one day. She sent Chloe a message that she was on her way home. When she got home, she found her little family in the living room.

Nate and Chloe who had Annie balanced on her hips stood up to greet her. Beca would've found it suspicious if Annie didn't distract her. She went straight for her and Chloe happily passed Annie to Beca.

Beca kissed Chloe and played with Nate's hair. "What have you three been up to?" She said while touching her nose to Annie's nose to make her laugh.

"Chi. Day. Bo." Annie, who was one and a half, mumbled.

Beca was nodding her head trying to figure out what her daughter was saying. "Say that again honey."

"Chi. Day. Bo." Annie said again much clearer this time.

Beca was racking her brains but not getting anything. She looked to Chloe for help and Chloe was biting her lip. Nate also looked like he was about to burst.

"Chlo?"

"Well. We were out on a walk this afternoon and came across two kittens."

As soon as Chloe said kittens, Beca knew. "You didn't?"

"I did." Chloe admitted.

"Two kittens?"

"And a dog." Nate said. "They're so cute mom."

"Super cute." Chloe added.

Beca wasn't opposed to having pets but three? "Chloe."

Then she hears it. Meows and barks from one of the rooms. Beca followed Nate and Chloe and she could feel Annie being excited as well.

"Mom. Meet Chip and Dale." Nate picked up the two kittens to show Beca. "And Bolt." A Jack Russell terrier.

Annie was begging to be put down to play with the pets too so Beca puts her down gently. Chloe quickly occupied her spot putting an arm around Beca's waist. "This is okay right? I couldn't say no Bec. I mean look at them."

Beca kissed the side of her head. "Who are you kidding? You've wanted to have pets for the longest time. I feel like I'm the one being played here."

Chloe starts giggling then. "You love us."

"I want another one." Beca suddenly said.

Chloe turned to her. "Really? Kitten or puppy?" She thought three pets were enough for Beca but she didn't really mind one more.

"No. Another baby." Beca said simply.

Thinking about the complications and Beca's struggles during her pregnancy and after giving birth, Chloe was a bit reluctant to agree. She always wondered what it was like to grow up in a big family but she didn't want to be selfish. She wanted Beca safe.

"What do you say? Didn't you ever wish for a sibling growing up?" Beca asked. She and Chloe was both an only child.

"As long as it's safe for you."

"Let's set an appointment to see the Doctor ASAP then."


Chloe was staring at their latest family picture. It was beside pictures of just them two then now their family consisted of two teenagers, a kindergartener, a toddler, four cats and two dogs. She was at home with their youngest, Beverley, while the boys were at soccer practice and Annie was at school when she received a call from Beca.

"What happened?"

"I'll explain when I see you. Fred's on his way to pick you up." Beca said on the phone.

"Okay. I'll see you in a bit then."

Fred dropped Chloe off at Annie's school. She saw Beca standing at the front of the steps waiting for her. She waved when she saw her and Chloe with Beverley glued to her hip, walked towards her.

"Hey. Is she okay?"

"Yeah." Beca took Beverley and led Chloe to where Annie was.

Annie ran to Chloe and hugged her as soon as she saw her. "I'm sorry Mommy. Please don't be mad."

"Mommy's not mad, baby. Your mom and I will just have a quick word with Mrs. Johnson, okay? Will you be alright here? Fred's outside, did you want to wait in the car?"

"No. I'm fine here. I'll wait for you here."

"Okay. Be a good girl. We won't be long." Chloe kissed the top of her head before following Beca to the principal's office.

"Doctor Beale. It's good to see you." Mrs Johnson offered her hand to Chloe. Chloe shook her hand. "Mrs. Mitchell." She did the same with Beca.

"And this must be Beverley."

Beca answered for them. "Yup. This is the little rascal."

Chloe, who was getting impatient, wanted to skip all the small talk and courtesies and started to ask about Annie. "What happened?"

"Annie's a good kid. She's very bright and she speaks up a lot."

Chloe nodded. She glanced at Beca beside her who was fidgeting in her seat.

Mrs. Johnson continued. "She's always been respectful and polite to her teachers and classmates. She got along with almost everyone. But as you may or may not know, P.E. is not her strong point but she's very competitive and she does her best and refuses to quit."

Mrs Johnson cleared her throat. "There's a boy in her class that was reportedly teasing her earlier today during P.E. They were playing soccer this week. Annie enjoys soccer the most."

Chloe smiled at that. "She gets it from her brothers."

"So to cut the long story short, she punched the boy and called him a little s-h-i-t."

"She did and said what?" Chloe leaned forward.

Mrs Johnson looks to Beca quickly. "When the teacher asked her why she did what she did, she said her mom told her to do it."

Beca winced. Chloe scoffed. "She said her mom told her to do it?"

"Yes Doctor."

Chloe crossed her arms. She turns to Beca for the first time for support but saw her guilt written all over her face.

"Bec?"

Beca gulped. "Yep?"

"Is there anything you want to tell me?"

Beca couldn't meet Chloe's gaze and looked down. Mrs Johnson spoke again. "The other boy has been reprimanded. I'm sorry Doctor and Mrs Mitchell but we're going to have to suspend Annie for a week."

Chloe nodded. She looked at her wife again who was still avoiding her and kept nodding. "Thank you Mrs Johnson. We'll take care of it. I assure you this won't happen again."

"I know you will and I'm sure it won't. It's always a pleasure seeing you both."

As soon as Chloe and Beca were outside the office, Beca whispered to Chloe almost pleading. "I'm so sorry. I know you must be furious. I understand."

Chloe cut her off. "Not now Bec. Let's get the girls home first."

"Okay. Sorry again."

Chloe just looks at her. She couldn't even find the words to say to Beca right now. Chloe takes a deep breath before turning the corner where their Annie was waiting.

"Hey hun. You good? You ready to go?"

"Are you mad?"

Chloe knelt in front of her. "No sweetheart. Does it hurt anywhere?"

Annie nodded. "A little here." And she showed Chloe her knuckles. Chloe checked on it to see if there was anything broken. They were not that swollen but they were a bit red.

Chloe kissed them gently once she was sure there was nothing broken. "Come on let's go home and put some ice on that. We'll also have something to eat then let's talk about this. Okay?"

"Okay."

Chloe then stood up and Annie took her hand with her uninjured hand. She looked up at Beca with a shrug and Beca gave Annie a smile and a wink. "I bet you're hungry."

"I am actually."

"Perfect."


The girls were already tucked in bed and the boys stayed over at Aubrey's. Beca and Chloe were already in bed as well. Chloe had her back facing Beca. She could feel Beca twisting and turning and sighing.

Chloe knew what was coming but she left Beca to suffer a little. She then felt Beca inching closer to her and putting an arm over her tummy. She can also feel Beca's breathing at the nape of her neck. Beca kissed her there before speaking.

"Okay so I know you're mad."

Chloe kept her eyes closed but she was smirking. "I'm not mad Bec." She said as she puts her arm over Beca's.

"Annoyed then?"

"No." Chloe shook her head. "I'm tired."

At that, Beca winced. She didn't like it when Chloe said she was tired. She'd rather that Chloe said she was mad. "Okay okay. Just hear me out."

"Bec it's okay. I heard everything already."

Chloe and Beca sat down with Annie after dinner and they had a heart to heart with her about the importance of not punching other kids and how to stand up for yourself without being violent.

"If you're leaving me for this I'll understand."

Chloe chuckled at that. "Stop being so dramatic. You should know by now I can't resist your face. Even Annie seems to be more aware of that fact than you are."

"I just don't want you to ever be tired of me."

"I didn't say I was tired of you. I just said I was tired. We've all had a long day. And you weren't wrong. Some kids are little shits."

Beca laughs at that. "I want to make it up to you. I can feel your muscles are a bit tense. Allow me to de-stress you a little." Beca said as her hands found their way under Chloe's boxer shorts.

"Hmmm. I could use some de-stressing."

"On it."


Beca was nominated producer of the year at this year's Grammys and was required to attend the event. She wanted to ask Chloe to be her date but Chloe opted to book a hotel near the Staples Centre with the kids and have a watch party there with them instead. Aubrey offered to stay with Chloe while they waited for Beca.

Beca couldn't skip out on attending and decided to go solo and attended the event with her team. Chloe and the kids were glued to the television the moment it started. They would cheer every time Beca's name was mentioned and every time her face flashed in the screen.

When it was time to announce the producer of the year. Everyone held their breaths. Unfortunately, the announcer didn't call Beca's name. Chloe wanted to run to Beca and give her a hug. She kept checking her phone after that to see if Beca has replied or at least seen her message. They kept watching after that and only spoke during commercial breaks.

When there was a knock on their door, Jamie was the first one to jump up from the bed. "I got it."

"Check to see who it is first." Chloe called out.

"Auntie Bec you're here!"

Everyone sat up straight when they heard Beca.

Aubrey stood up first. "Hey Beca. Still big congratulations to you." Aubrey hugged her.

"Thanks Aubs and thanks for keeping them company."

"We enjoyed it. Sorry we have to go."

"No worries. Thanks again."

"Jame say goodbye, your dad's waiting."

"Sure thing Mom." Jamie went around to say his goodbyes to everyone.

When Jamie and Aubrey left, Beca looked at everyone's positions. They were all snuggled up in bed.

She put her hands on her hips and pretends to be offended. "I can't believe you guys are having a slumber party without me. I'm going to go change first. You guys choose a movie while I do that."

"Can I pick the movie?" Beverley asks raising her hand.

"Of course sweetie. What did you want to watch?"

"Tangled please."

Chloe grabs the remote. "Then Tangled it is."

Beca changed quickly. She got out the bathroom and was in her sweats. She saw everyone cuddled in bed but Chloe moved to sit on the couch.

"Alright, I'm ready. Is everyone ready?" Beca looked around checking everyone.

"Mom. Mommy. Can you snuggle up here please?" Annie asked.

Chloe was about to move but Beca just leaned into her more and wrapped her arms around her tighter.

"We will in a bit sweetheart I promise."

Once the movie started and it got everyone's attention, Chloe nudged Beca lightly.

"How're you holding up? You okay?"

"I'm more than okay. Why wouldn't I be?"

"Come on Bec. It's just you and me. You can be honest."

"It's the truth. The moment they didn't call my name, I'll admit I was sad and disappointed at first but it wasn't even for more than a minute. After that all I could think about was how to get out of there and come here to you guys."

Chloe looked at her long to see if she was telling the truth or she was just saying that to get Chloe off her back.

"Chlo. I have two of the sweetest boys, two lovely beautiful baby girls and I'm with my stunning hot hot hot wife. What more could I ask for?"

Chloe can only shake her head. "Such a sweet talker."

"It's the truth. You guys are the real prize."

Before Chloe could respond Nate, Annie and Beverley were already shushing them both.

"You're missing the movie." Annie hissed at them.

Beca then pushed herself off Chloe and ran to the other side of the bed next to Nate and Chloe slipped next to Beverley on the opposite end. Beverley almost laid on top of Chloe and Annie who was in the middle snuggled closer to Chloe's side. Beca put an arm over Nate's shoulders and rested her hand on Chloe's shoulder.

"You little rascals." Beca said shaking her head.

"Shhhh!" was all the response she got.

Chloe turned to look at Beca when she felt a hand on her shoulder and held her gaze. They had a moment to themselves while smiling to each other and looking into each other's eyes. Then Pascal, the chameleon, most likely did something funny again cause everyone was giggling again. It was music to their ears.

Before they broke eye contact, Beca mouthed 'I love you' to which Chloe responded with a wink and a kiss.

… And they lived happily ever after.

The end.
