Chapter 5
Press tour is starting and Beca's really anxious. She couldn't sleep properly since the vacation because she never felt at ease afterwards. For the first week, they're at London because of fashion week. Beca and Blake are known as two of the most stylish celebrities in the world. Their attendance is a must.
Chloe's spending the night at Beca's because the younger woman asked her to help for packing. Her opinion is important to Beca and she was always present during the most crucial times of Beca's career.
"You'll be everywhere, Becs. I can't wait to see your outfits." Chloe was excited helping Beca choose from the designer bags that were dropped off by Silver.
"Silver does a great job of styling me too. It's like she's the jack of all trades. I'd look like a newbie beside Blake." Chloe's facial expression changed hearing Silver's name.
"You two are getting real close lately, huh?" Chloe tried her best to be modest about it.
"Really close. We have to decided everything together, go everywhere together, and even go to this press tour together. I have to give credit to her, she knows how to take care of her clients." Chloe wasn't her biggest fan though.
"As long as she's doing her best to keep you from doing terrible decisions."
"Getting a bit protective, Beale. Thanks for watching out. So are these clothes your final choices?" She asked the redhead as she tries to change the subject.
"Yes, Becs. I can't believe you'll be going on tour for a month straight." Chloe got sad thinking she won't be spending time with her for the next month.
"Me too, Chlo. There's a first for everything. Don't miss me too much." Beca tried to joke but Chloe got sadder.
"Okay, Chloe. Now it looks like you're the raincloud to my sunshine, and that can't happen. I'll fly back here if my schedule gets cleared up. You can stay with the other girls for a while."
"Fine. Just make sure you'll be back in time for Thanksgiving. The girls want to spend it together."
That was Beca's weakness. Her girls.
"Of course I will. Now let me cook dinner for you before you cry." Beca teased Chloe.
"Jerk. But thanks for cooking dinner. Last meal before you leave for press. I have to get used to this."
Beca looked at Chloe for a while, she never thought she'd see Chloe like this. The redhead seemed to miss her BEFORE she even left. She wasn't alone though. This is how Beca feels whenever Chloe leaves. She misses her all the time.
After dinner, Chloe decided to call Aubrey because she can't contain her feelings anymore.
"Aubrey Posen, good evening."
"Bree, you sound like a machine. It's just me." Chloe chuckled.
"I thought it was a client. I'm about to sleep so shoot. I know something's up."
"Beca's leaving tomorrow for a month of press. I don't think I can take it."
"You'll be busy working at the clinic, Chlo. Don't worry about it. You can always hang out with me and the girls to drown out your sadness."
"Thanks, Bree but I think it's time that I tell her."
"Would you look at that. Chloe Beale is finally confessing to the love of her life after years of hiding toners and heartbreaks."
"I called you for comfort not to attack me like this. But what do you think? The truth please." Chloe begged her best friend.
"About time, Chlo. I'm with you a hundred percent. Both of you are single and have gone through failed relationships. It's time you realize what you have is something special."
"Thank you so much. I just really don't think I can take it if she rejects me?"
"If you weren't my best friend, I won't reject you. How about that?"
"You love me that much, Bree. I'd see you real soon. I have to go spend time with Beca before she leaves. Bye."
"Love you, Chlo. Bye."
Aubrey's words are the second most important to her. She's been thinking about opening up to Beca when she got back from her tour with Khaled but they never had the right time to talk to each other deeply. She wasn't ready to risk it all especially Beca's just starting her career. She'll wait until everything's settled.
