Friday:
The entirety of Friday is spent with Chloe being pampered by her girlfriends in attempt to make up for the crappy week. It starts out with Aubrey wearing Chloe's favorite lingerie set, the maroon lace, and Beca in her own black set.
And Chloe did, for the record, have every intent for them to kiss ass in every way that Aubrey did to Beca all week.
But since they started with the lingerie, it took up more time than she intended, and well, Chloe's certainly not going to complain about that fact maybe messing up the rest of the day they had planned for before Aubrey had to leave.
Beca was perched on her arm looking down at Chloe. Her breathing was still uneven, but she managed to get out her question. "So," Beca smirked, "whats next on the checklist again?"
And this had to be considered cheating in this game Chloe was playing, and it wasn't fair that they were ganging up on her. Between the smirk and the way she felt a certain blonde's index finger trace up the side of her hip bone and do swirls around her lower abdomen, there's no way this was considered a clean, fair, game.
Chloe's head whipped toward the blonde at the touch, who sighed a heavy sigh. "I believe make you breakfast was next, and if we wanna have time to then we better get up…" And suddenly her touch was gone and she made a move to sit up further. Chloe quickly reached her hand out, stopping Aubrey from any further movement. She glared.
"You're kind of evil you know?" Chloe asked. Aubrey raised her brows. "And you realize you're not going anywhere right now, right?" A smile pulled at Aubrey's lips as she settled back to her side.
"Order in then?" Beca asked behind her. Chloe looked behind her and then flipped to straddle the brunette.
"You better order quickly then." She mumbled as she traced her lips down the younger girl's throat.
(Chloe would later hear that apparently, when Beca answered the door in nothing but a throw blanket, the delivery boy's face was priceless, so Beca tipped him a bit extra.)
(Chloe thinks that seeing Beca in nothing but a throw blanket should have been tip enough, but she keeps that to herself.)
They're eating waffles from their regular breakfast place in bed, when the doorbell rings for a second time that morning. Chloe's confused until she sees the blonde smile, grab the throw blanket Beca was wearing earlier, and slip out of the bedroom.
"I hate to see her go, but I love to watch her leave," Beca says through a mouth full of food. Chloe laughs and makes a mental note to get Beca out of this rap phase, because this isn't the first time she's quoted a Lil Wayne song in the last several hours.
Aubrey returns a couple minutes later with a dozen red roses in a vase. Chloe can feel herself beaming as she accepts them with a thank you kiss. (Apparently delivery boy #2 also was a little more than surprised at her girlfriend's attire, or lack there of.)
"Lingerie, check." Aubrey says.
"Breakfast, check." Beca chimes in.
"Flowers, check."Aubrey finishes. Chloe hands her the flowers and she puts them on the night stand.
"What's next?" Beca asks.
Chloe smiles, because, really, even after a crazy week, she isn't sure how she got so lucky. But also, again, it's been a crazy week, and she's going to soak this up as much as she can. "Playlist?"
Chloe looks to Beca for this. "I already made it last night." Beca smiles. She grabs her phone from the night stand on her side and connects to the bedroom's bluetooth speaker. The first song that fills the room is none other, than Taylor Swift's "Mine." (Beca makes it through almost the whole song without a snarky remark, but she eventually slips one in there toward the end.)
"Are we missing something?" Aubrey asks, looking at the ceiling like she's going down the checklist in her head.
"You brought me my headphones because Chloe told you too." Beca stated.
"Oh yeah!"
"I knew it!" Beca pointed her plastic fork at Chloe, who rolled her eyes in return.
"Whatever, you're welcome." Chloe retorted.
And, because its not like they could recreate that scenario this very moment, Chloe took this as an opportune time to tell them everything about whats going on with her own work, and her struggles with it. And Chloe's not sure if she forgot this week, or she was too distracted with their own stuff, but she seemed to remember something as the girls were giving her feedback. She remembered that all three of them led a group of crazy girls in a cappella for years, and she should have just asked them for help to begin with. They gave her great ideas, and Chloe felt much better about it by the time the playlist came to an end.
Unfortunately with the end of that, they realized it was now afternoon, and Aubrey had to get ready to leave.
Beca insisted on driving her, because really that meant she got to spend more time with her. The two of them also insisted on Chloe coming, for the same reason.
They listened to the playlist Aubrey had made for Beca, for real this time, on the car ride there. Chloe was surprised to hear that it was very Beca-esq.
When they got to the camp ground, they all got out of the car to say their goodbyes. Chloe kissed her girlfriend and then moved to get her duffel bag out of the trunk for her.
She was about to close the trunk when she caught the two of them in the corner of her eye. They were just embracing each other for a long while. Aubrey was holding the other girl tight, and whispering something in her ear.
Chloe thinks she might not always understand them, but she does know that she loves these two women more than she has ever loved anything. She thinks, no matter what crazy they will ever put her through, they will always be worth it.
