Drama is ahead dun dun duuuuunnnnn!
Beca sighed as she down next to Chloe. Chloe and Jane frowned seeing Beca's mood change. Chloe placed her hand on Beca's leg. Beca looked at her and shook her head pushing Chloe's hand off. Chloe frowned.
"Where's Tommy?" Frankie Senior asked.
"He couldn't make it. Tommy and TJ are at home sick. I went over this morning and gave them some medicine and homemade soup," Angela said. Beca deflated wishing she could see TJ.
"That's too bad," Frankie Senior said.
"Janie, why don't you say grace?" Angela said. Jane nodded and everyone bowed their heads while she said grace. Once grace was over everyone dug in. Beca stayed silent and ate. Chloe was looking at Beca, her odd behavior worrying her.
"Janie, how has the station been treating you?" Frankie Senior asked.
"Good, everything is going great," Jane said nervously. Maura and herself had decided to officially tell the whole family at dinner.
"That's good, Frankie how is working along with your sister?" Frankie Senior asked.
"Good, it's good," Frankie said awkwardly.
"Becoming a hot shot detective like you sister," Frankie Senior said proudly then looked at Beca. "And what are you doing Rebecca?" Frankie Senior asked, his voice turning hard a little. Beca clinched her jaw.
"I'm better than ever. I'm going to college and making a lot of friends. I'm probably going to put off LA for a while," Beca said.
"It's good you got your head out of the clouds and going for an education. How about our…discussion we had last time. Are you finally over it?" he asked. All of the family frowned, not knowing what they were talking about.
"No I'm not," Beca said squeezing her hands and clinching her jaw tighter.
"You need to work on it," Frankie Senior said.
"Excuse me, I think I lost my appetite," Beca whispered getting up and fleeing from the table. Beca went to the back door and opened the closet door to put on her jacket.
Beca grabbed her jacket and roughly shoved her arms inside. Beca pushed the door forcefully and walked out of the house, the cold air feeling her lungs. Beca went to the back of the yard towards the swing, punching a tree next to it.
"Fucking hell," Beca screamed as she kept hitting it and then stopped and sat down holding her hand, holding the tears back. She took in deep slow breaths trying not to cry.
"I don't think that tree did anything to you," Maura said from behind her. Beca sniffled wiping her eyes with her uninjured hand.
"It made fun of my lap top," Beca whispered weakly. Maura took Beca's injured hand.
"I couldn't help but notice your body language changing when you saw Frankie Senior," Maura said examining Becas hand.
"I don't know what you mean." Beca whispered.
"It's not broken but it will swell and we need to clean it up," Maura said. "What discussion was he talking about?" Maura asked. Beca chuckled letting the tears finally fall.
"Let's just say when you and Jane make your orientation known I'll be blamed," Beca sniffled.
"Why would you be blamed?" Maura asked with a frown.
"Because I'm a good for nothing freak," Beca whispered as she stood up and grabbed some snow to put it on her knuckles.
"Beca did he abuse you?" Maura asked softly.
"No," Beca said quickly. "He never laid a hand on me, he…he berates me and calls me names, but that's about it," Beca whispered wiping her tears away and composing herself. Breathing the cold air in and out.
"Beca, that is mental abuse. Why didn't you tell Jane?" Maura asked tightening her jacket.
"And ruin her image of her dad?" Beca asked shaking her head. "I couldn't do that to her. And I couldn't be the reason Angela and him fought and I just…I couldn't do that to my family. You make the small sacrifices for family," Beca whispered then chuckled. "I did get pay back. He hated when I was flirty and so forward with girls. Well girls in general. So, I flirted and did my thing just to piss him off," Beca whispered.
"Beca, you need to tell Jane," Maura said placing her hand on Becas shoulder.
"No," Beca said shaking her hand. "I can't do that to her. She loves her dad. And you won't say anything. This is my burden and it has been for a long time," Beca said. Maura sighed and nodded, seeing that she wasn't going to talk Beca out of her decision.
"Let's go inside, your fingers are starting to turn white and if we don't get them warmed up soon you'll start to get Raynaud's disease," Maura said.
"Ok, I understood like half of that. So, I'm just going to go in before I get a lecture," Beca said. Maura chuckled and followed.
"Thanks for leaving me guys. Your dad is like super uptight" Chloe said as she watched them put their coats up.
"He's not my dad," Beca said her voice harden.
"I'll go make you some coffee," Maura said going to the kitchen.
"Hey, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make you upset," Chloe said sadly, looking down at her feet. Beca sighed.
"It's not you Chlo," Beca whispered taking Chloes hands. "It's just him. He makes me…. fuck he pisses me off so much, and it makes me angry and frustrated," Beca said growing red as she got angrier and angrier talking about it.
Chloe let go of Beca's hands and hooked her fingers in Beca's loops to bring her closer and kissed her.
Beca gasped shocked at the movement but it didn't take long for her to start kissing her girlfriend back. Beca closed her eyes and the anger melted away with each second kissing Chloe.
"Hey Becs, you…oh I guess you are ok then," Jane said teasingly. Beca tensed pulling away from the kiss, she had a light blush in her cheeks.
"Yeah, I'm fine now," Beca whispered hiding her hand away from her sister.
"Beca, I can see you tensing. What's going on?" Jane asked with a frown.
"It's nothing I can't handle Jane," Beca whispered not looking at her. Jane sighed not wanting to push her sister.
"Alright, I won't push. But when you are ready to talk I am here," Jane said softly and left.
"Come on, lets clean up that hand," Chloe said taking her to the kitchen, thankfully the family had moved into Maura's new game room and they had privacy.
Beca jumped up on the counter using her bad wrist and hissed holding her hand.
"If you keep using your injured hand it will just get worse," Maura said.
"And here I thought it would just get better," Beca said sarcastically.
"Well, if you are going to be smart with me then maybe I shouldn't give you this coffee," Maura threatened. Beca gasped.
"You wouldn't take away coffee from me," Beca said dramatically. Maura and Chloe both went into a fit of laughter. Maura and Chloe's laughing caused Beca to start laughing with them. Maura handed Beca the coffee with a smile.
"Alright, let me see your hand now," Chloe said once they calmed down. Beca lifted her hand up to Chloe as she sipped her coffee with a sigh, the hot liquid warming her throat.
"So, are you some kind of doctor or something Chlo?" Beca asked as Chloe started cleaning it.
"Yes, I plan to anyways. I want to become a doctor and work with kids," Chloe said. Beca hummed taking a sip. "Or be an exotic dancer," Chloe added. Beca started chocking on her coffee, coughing and trying to catch her breath.
"I'm sorry what?" Beca asked hoarsely once she caught her breath a little.
"Doctor or exotic dancer," Chloe said with a shrug like it was no big deal.
"Maura?" Beca asked in disbelief.
"It's her own choice," Maura said with a shrug. "I would like for her to be in a safer environment, but, it all comes down to her choice," Maura said. Beca shook her head.
"Well, as your girlfriend I say no on the exotic dancer. There is no way in hell I'm letting someone else see you naked," Beca said possessively. Chloe smirked at how possessive Beca was being.
"It's kind of hot seeing you give orders Becs," Chloe said kissing her now wrapped hand softly. "All done. It's not broken but it is bruised and it will be sore. Don't use it for about three or four days and you will be fine," Chloe said letting go of Beca's hand.
"Thanks Chlo. And I'm sorry for running out like that," Beca whispered to them both.
"We should get back out there with dessert," Maura said putting her cup down and going to the fridge. "Chloe, Beca, will you help me?" Maura asked holding a bowl that neither one couldn't see in at that moment.
"Sure," Chloe said happily, going over to her sister and taking one of the cakes from the fridge.
"I guess," Beca whispered going over to Maura. Maura handed her a medium size bowl with some green stuff in it that Beca had no idea what it was.
"Dude, what the hell is this? Is it even edible?" Beca asked starring at it.
"It's a healthy dessert, it's why it looks so foreign to you," Maura said rolling her eyes at Beca. Beca chuckled and went into the dining room, her mood returning when she spotted Frank Senior.
"I've got Maura's green goo," Beca said sitting down.
"Beca, what happened to your hand?" Angela asked in concern.
"It's nothing Ma. Just me and a tree got into an argument. You should see the tree though, it looks worse," Beca said as Chloe sat next to her. This time Beca allowed Chloe to keep her hand on her knee. Everyone started eating their dessert except Beca, she was still upset and food just made her feel sick at the moment.
"So, Maura and I want to tell you guys something," Jane said. Beca tensed looking at Frankie Senior. "Now, a lot of you already know this but we want to make it official for everybody. Maura and I are officially together and I am moving in with her," Jane said nervously. Maura was just as nervous maybe even more then Jane.
"What do you mean together? I mean, I know you're best friends and if you can't pay the rent or anything on your place I can help you out Janie," Frankie Senior said confused.
"No pop, that's not what I mean. Maura and I are a couple now, we are dating each other," Jane said. Frankie Senior clinched his jaw and looked at Beca. Beca flinched at the hate filled look.
"This is all your fault, if you weren't so misbehaved you wouldn't have rubbed off on her," Frank Senior said to Beca. Beca looked away from him and to Maura, giving her an I told you so look. Maura frowned hating that Beca was going through this.
"Now hold up…" Jane said trying to defend her sister but Frank Senior interrupted.
"No, it's true. She is always causing trouble and bringing attention on herself. Hell, you have enough attention on yourself now because of the freak that you are," Frankie Senior spat out. Beca clinched her jaw fighting the tears.
"You bring disgrace to the church and this family," Frank Senior spat out at her his voice raising.
"That is enough," Angela said slamming her hands on the table and standing up.
"No, it isn't enough. She ruined this family. She has ever since she was born," Frankie Senior said slapping Beca across the cheek. Everyone froze from shook. Beca was the first to move and she took off running out of the house.
"Beca!" Chloe shouted trying to chase after her but she was already gone. Angela's jaw locked and she walked right up to him and punched Frankie Senior right in the nose, a break could be heard and blood started coming out.
"Don't you ever talk to her like that. That is my daughter and you will never speak about her like that again," Angela said red in the face from anger. "Don't you ever come near this family again," Angela said.
"Get out, and don't come back," Jane said disappointed that the man she once adored was capable of hurting her family like that.
"Janie," Frankie Senior said sorrow in his voice and holding his bleeding nose.
"No, do not Janie me. I looked up to you. And you just did that…to Beca…to family. Get out, I don't want to talk to you ever again," Jane said throwing a napkin at him. Frankie Junior grabbed his dad and forced him out of the house.
"Where's Beca?" Jane asked just now noticing that Beca was gone. Chloe came running back into the house panting.
"I don't know, she ran to quickly for me to catch up," Chloe panted, worried about Beca.
"We will find her," Jane assured her squeezing her arm, the whole family went out to start looking for Beca. The only one staying at the house was Maura, Constance, and Hope in case Beca came back.
