UPDATE! Alright so I updated this chapter and corrected a few things but nothing major changed.
Alright you aca-nerds, again here is where I say I am sorry about the slow updates but college is just that way. Though honestly I write in my classes it is the typing it up that is the problem. But I really appreciate your patience and I Hope you enjoy this chapter.
Beca sniffled sipping the whiskey.
"Sorry to just show up," Beca said hoarsely as she sipped some more, welcoming the familiar burn.
"It's fine Sis. Plus, from the sound of it I wouldn't want to be there. Man, I can't believe he did that to you. I'm so sorry," Tommy said through a yawn, he was still fighting off the sleepiness the meds gave him.
"Yeah," Beca whispered downing the whiskey. TJ started crying. Tommy sighed and started to get up.
"I'll get him," Beca said getting up and putting her glass on the table.
"You sure?" Tommy asked.
"Yeah," Beca nodded. "I need to see him. He always cheers me up," Beca said going to TJ's room. Beca smiled slightly when she saw TJ bouncing up and down the baby bed.
"Hey little man," Beca said picking him up and feeling his forehead. "No fever, let's get you changed and then fed," Beca said changing his diaper. When she came out she went back to the living room and smiled at the sleeping Tommy.
"I think daddy needs a nap," Beca whispered against TJs ear who giggled. Beca went over and put a blanket over Tommy then went into the kitchen. Beca put TJ in the high chair and began humming Don't You Forget About Me as she made TJ some baby food. Beca fed him of few bites as she started singing, eventually dancing as she fed Tommy and sang to him.
Tommy giggled and clapped. Beca smiled at him feeling tons better, for some reason TJ always could bring a smile on her face.
Beca spun around and instantly stopped when she saw who was standing there.
"Uhmm…how long were you standing there?" Beca asked with a blush.
"Long enough to get a recording of it all," Tommy smirked.
"Yeah, well, you don't look like shit anymore," Beca said. Tommy chuckled.
"You don't look so bad yourself," Tommy said picking TJ up.
"Thanks," Beca said with a chuckle and rolling her eyes at her brother. "I'm gonna go," Beca said picking up her jacket.
"You aren't driving, right?" Tommy asked. "Mom would kill me if she found out I let you drink and drive," Tommy said.
"No, I'm going to walk. I don't want to head back just yet," Beca said going over and hugging him then kissing TJs head.
"Be careful Beca," Tommy said watching his sister leave.
Beca froze when she saw the last person she expected to be in Boston and sitting in her secret spot, on her rock.
"Aubrey?" Beca asked with a raised eyebrow. Aubrey jumped looking at Beca.
"Beca? Hey," Aubrey said wiping her eyes. "What are you doing here?" Aubrey asked.
"This is my hometown; my whole family is here. What are you doing here?" Beca asked.
"My father decided to come to Boston and have Thanksgiving here," Aubrey said with a sigh then looked at Beca a little more closely. "Beca is that a hand print on your face?" Aubrey asked with a frown. Beca tensed.
"N…no," Beca said weakly as she looked away.
"I'll share my pain if you share yours," Aubrey said, her voice laced with vulnerability. Beca looked at her and nodded sitting next to her. Aubrey took a deep breath and looked away from Beca.
"My father told me that I was a disgrace, he found out about Stacie and I," Aubrey said tearing up again. "So, now I need to break up with her," Aubrey said wiping her tears away.
"Dude, that is fucked up. Why? Why would you do that? You are a grown ass woman," Beca said.
"Because all I want is to make my father proud of me Beca, that is all I want," Aubrey said then looked at Beca. "Haven't you ever wanted to make someone proud?" Aubrey asked.
"Well yeah, but my mom always told me never to put my own happiness to the side just to please others," Beca said. "Is pleasing your father really more important than your happiness?" Beca asked. Aubrey didn't say anything for the longest time.
"You are actually right Beca," Aubrey whispered. Beca gasped dramatic.
"Oh my God the world may end right now. Did Aubrey Posen just admit I was right?" Beca teased bumping her shoulder. Aubrey laughed bumping Becas shoulder.
"Yes, even Nazi Posen can admit when she is wrong," Aubrey said with a chuckle.
"Wow, I never would have guessed Aubrey Posen was fun outside of the Bellas," Beca said.
"Yeah. Look Beca, I'll make you deal. Outside of the Bellas we can be friends and I promise I won't comment on you being with Jesse. I know you would never cheat on Chloe. I just…I fight with you because you push my buttons Beca, you challenge me and no one has done that before," Aubrey said.
"So you will let me change the set now?" Beca asked.
"No, I'm not changing the set list," Aubrey said. "Good try though," Aubrey chuckled. Beca smiled and shrugged.
"Had to try," Beca said with a smirk then sighed. "The slap was from my uncle. When I was growing up all he would call me was a freak and that I should have never been born. Today my sister came out and he blamed me, so, he hit me," Beca whispered biting her lip.
"Beca, no one deserves that," Aubrey said placing her hand on Becas arm and squeezed it.
"Thanks Bree, it means a lot to hear you say that," Beca said. "So…Friends now? Except for Bella practice and performances when we try to kill each other?" Beca asked. Aubrey chuckled and nodded.
"Friends," Aubrey said. "I'm glad we ran into each other," Aubrey said.
"Surprisingly me too Posen. You aren't so bad when you aren't controlling," Beca said.
"Beca," Jane called out from behind her. Beca tensed getting up off the rock.
"I'll see you around. Do you need a ride?" Beca asked.
"I drove, thanks though. Tell Chloe I said hi," Aubrey said. Beca nodded and went over to Jane and they walked to her sister's car.
"How…how did you find me?" Beca whispered, shoving her hands in her jacket pockets.
"I'm a detective Beca, I checked Tommy's I figured you would be here. TJ always did make you feel better. But when Tommy said you were not there anymore I knew to come here to your secret spot," Jane said.
"Oh," Beca whispered as she turned away from her leaning against the passenger side, Jane now in front of her.
"Rebecca…" Jane whispered.
"Oh great," Beca muttered before Jane could keep going.
"What?" Jane asked with a frown.
"You've only used Rebecca when telling me something upsetting, like when my mom had cancer, or when you ran over my bike, or when Frankie went into my room and messed up my computer," Beca said. "So just spit it out Jane," Beca whispered crossing her arms.
"Maura told me what you two were talking about earlier today. Why didn't you tell me Becs? Or Ma?" Jane asked.
"And what? Ruin your family? Be the reason why your parents split so everyone could think of me as the freak who ruins the family," Beca spat out.
"Beca you are not a freak. You are family and we love you," Jane said wrapping her arms around her and hugging her tightly. Beca tried to get out of it but Jane wasn't having it.
"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry," Beca cried into Janes shoulder finally accepting the affection.
"Shh Beca, you have nothing to be sorry about. I'm sorry I didn't see it, I'm the one who should be sorry, not you," Jane said holding Beca tightly as she cried. They were like that for a while until Beca stopped.
"Come on Beca, everyone is worried. And you need rest," Jane said helping her up. Beca sniffled and nodded.
Beca starred at Maura's front door from inside Janes car.
"I'm sorry I ran," Beca whispered, sorrow laced in her voice.
"I understand. I would have done the same," Jane said.
"I'll be inside waiting," Jane said kissing her sister's temple and going inside.
Beca sighed and pulled down the visor, fixing her makeup. When she fixed, it she got breathing in the cold air she quietly made her way into the living room where she heard everyone talking as soon as she walked in everyone grew quiet.
"Oh Beca," Angela said going over and hugging Beca tightly. Beca tensed at her Ma's affection and wrapped her arms around her Ma hiding in her neck and breathing in her motherly scent. Beca was all cried out and just enjoyed the comfort of her Ma.
"I'm sorry I ran," Beca whispered squeezing her Ma tighter. Angela rubbed Beca's back.
"It's ok. But, don't you ever keep something from me again," Angela said kissing her daughter's temple. Beca nodded pulling back and looking at her Ma.
"I promise," Beca said as her Ma let her go. Chloe went next and hugged Beca tightly.
"What's a family get together without some drama," Beca said as she hugged Chloe back. Her family chuckled and agreed.
"Well, I'm heading home. I'm glad you are ok Becs," Frankie said hugging his sister.
"It's good to see you Frankie. Oh, and your bike is still safe," Beca teased. Frankie chuckled.
"I'm glad you are enjoying it," Frankie said leaving.
"I'm going to bed, it has been a very…eventful day," Hope said.
"I actually agree with that," Beca said running her hands up and down Chloe's back. It made Beca feel better to touch her girlfriend.
"The rule still stands, I don't want you two sharing a room," Angela said with a stern look that Beca recognized easily.
"We know," Chloe and Beca both said and chuckled lightly. Maura went over to Beca.
"I'm sorry for telling Jane," Maura whispered so no one else could hear but Beca. Beca shook her head.
"I knew you couldn't keep a secret. I think a part of me needed you to tell her because I couldn't do it," Beca whispered. "So, thank you," Beca said puling Maura into a hug. Maura smiled and hugged back.
"Take care of my sister Beca," Maura whispered into her ear.
"And you take care of mine," Beca said as they pulled back.
"Cards, later right?" Constance asked. Beca smirked and nodded.
"You bet your ass," Beca chuckled, hugging Constance then letting go. "Night guys," Beca said going up to her room with Chloe. Angela was following them just in case.
"Ma seriously? You are going to follow me?" Beca whined making Chloe giggle at her girlfriend's behavior.
"I'm making sure you two go to separate rooms," Angela said. Beca rolled her eyes and went to her room. Chloe giggled and went to her room to get ready for bed.
Jane passed her Ma while heading upstairs to Becas room.
"I'm going to head home too, I'll see you in the morning," Angela said kissing her daughter's cheek. Jane nodded.
"See ya Ma," Jane said as she made her way to Becas room.
"Hey Becs," Jane said just as Beca was about to close her door.
"What's up Janie?" Beca asked opening the door and leaning against the door frame.
"Well, I officially moved in here earlier this week and while packing I found these," Jane said holding up a small box that said 'Mom's tapes'. Beca looked at it with shock.
"I…I thought it was lost," Beca said, taking it with shaky hands.
"I did too. I was going to give it to you as a birthday present. But, I thought you could use it now," Jane said scratching the back of her neck. Beca threw her arms around her sister and hugged her tightly. Jane smiled and hugged back.
"Thank you Jane," Beca said to her sister. Jane squeezed her and let go.
"Your welcome Becs," Jane said kissing her head. "I'll see you at noon," Jane teased.
"I like my sleep," Beca said and chuckled as she closed her door. Beca changed into her pajamas which was just boxers and a t-shirt then crawled into bed with her computer and started watching the discs.
Chloe waited a few hours before leaving her room, squeaking when she ran into Constance. Constance chuckled.
"Sneaking to see your girlfriend?" Constance asked with a chuckle and a teasing smile.
"Uhmm yeah, I thought everyone would be asleep," Chloe said with a blush.
"I'm having a nap cap," Constance said holding her drink up. "So, as far as I am concerned, you are just a figment of this drinks imagination," Constance said with a wink and went to her room. Chloe chuckled and blushed going into Beca's room. Chloe smiled seeing Beca propped up in bed and watching something on her screen that had her girlfriend teary eyed.
"Hey," Chloe said softly making her way to Becas bed. Beca sniffled moving over for Chloe.
"Hey," Beca said hoarsely. Chloe undid her robe; she was wearing a tank top and short shorts. Once the robe was discarded she crawled into bed with Beca. Now having a better view of the screen Chloe saw a woman smiling at a younger looking Beca.
"Is that your mom?" Chloe asked. Beca nodded sitting the computer on Chloe's covered lap and laid her head on her girlfriend's chest.
"So, when I was out I went to my secret spot and guess who was there," Beca said.
"Uhmm, was it your secret lover? Oh, no, I've got it, it was your secret wife and kid, right?" Chloe asked teasingly. Beca chuckled.
"Oh yeah, how'd you know?" Beca joked back with a wide smile.
"All red heads are psychic," Chloe chuckled. "Who was there babe?" Chloe asked running her hand through Beca's hair.
"The one and only Aubrey Posen," Beca said.
"And the world is still here? You didn't kill her right?" Chloe half joked. Beca laughed and shook her head.
"Don't worry your best friend is still very much alive," Beca assured her. "Actually, we talked. She isn't so bad outside of school. She was actually pretty cool," Beca said. "Dude, I thought I would never say that about her," Beca chuckled through a yawn. Chloe giggled kissing her girlfriend's head.
"She is just controlling of the Bellas and of school. Outside of all that she is a pretty great person," Chloe said.
"We actually agreed to be friends outside of the Bellas. But at practice and Bella related things we are still going to be at each other's throats," Beca said.
"I think you just like working on her nerve," Chloe said with a smirk. Beca chuckled.
"I will not accept nor deny that comment," Beca said looking up at her. Chloe looked into Becas eyes.
"Beca, I love you with all my heart ok. And I promise to do my best to not hurt you," Chloe whispered.
"I didn't know we were doing our wedding vows now," Beca said glancing at Chloe's lips.
"Oh totes," Chloe chuckled. Beca smiled.
"I...I'm not ready to say it," Beca whispered, pulling Chloe closer hoping she didn't leave because she wasn't ready to say it. Chloe smiled softly and pulled Beca into a soft loving kiss. They pulled back when they need to breath.
"What was that for?" Beca asked.
"Because even if you aren't ready to say it, it is ok," Chloe said pulling her girlfriend to her so she was laid back down on her chest. Beca yawned while she pressed play on the computer. The sound started again and it was Beca's mom singing Don't You Forget About Me while dancing with a little Beca. Chloe smiled at the video watching it till the end, glad that Beca was sharing this with her.
"Goodnight Grasshopper," Becas mom said in the video and then it ended.
"Goodnight mom," Beca mumbled in her sleep. Chloe kissed Becas head and put the computer on the bedside table. Chloe laid down and pulled her girlfriend as close to her as she could. Chloe was glad Beca was safe and in her arms now.
"I love you so much Becs, night," Chloe whispered and fell asleep. but not before catching Beca smiling in her sleep.
