Quick Plug: I uploaded a ONESHOT called Solider a few weeks ago and it would be appreciated if you could go and check it out.
Chapter 29
Beca was shocked. Her mind went blank. Seeing someone she hadn't seen in such a long time, standing right in front of her. She was angry and surprised but she had no idea what to do. The girl who had broken her heart, acting as nothing had changed, she had a bad feeling about this and just stayed quiet.
"Did you miss me, baby?" She asked sweetly walking over to Beca, her hips having a purposeful sway to them. They were now stood inches apart, Beca being the shorter of the two meant she was looking up, and it was straight into her emerald green eyes. Her brown hair was pushed to the side, hanging down by her shoulders. As they were so close Beca could smell the fresh scent of mango, the exact same one that she had used when they were together. It had been a weakness of Beca's, she had no idea why but she just seemed to give in whenever she was around it, of course, the person in front of her knew that though. They were both engaged in an intense staring battle, Beca's cobalt eyes looking into deep green both had a glimmer from the shining moon really highlighted their irises.
The girl ran her long finger with perfectly manicured nails down the middle of Beca's chest causing her to gulp.
"Y'know Becs, I've always found you hot, your whole badass vibe," the girl purred.
Beca didn't know what to do, her body wouldn't move and the fact that she had a beautiful, kind and caring girlfriend sitting at home waiting for her didn't seem to register in her head.
"What are you doing here?" Beca managed to ask, the girl's perfume was intoxicating her and she was finding it hard to form a sentence.
"I wanted to see you," the girl sweetly.
"Right," Beca stuttered out.
"I thought, we could y'know have some fun, for old times sake."
Suddenly, everything seemed to flood into Beca's mind, the pain, heartbreak and stress the girl in front of her had caused in her life.
"Olivia, what are you doing here?" Beca said strongly, taking a step back.
"I told you, I'm here to see you. I was in the area and thought I'd drop by," Olivia said innocently.
"In the area," Beca muttered with a laugh. She couldn't believe she almost fell for it, nearly fell into her trap, again. She would always do this, again and again, make Beca fall for her and then leave her or in this specific girls case, cause trouble.
"Look Beca, I didn't come here to cause trouble," Olivia said, refraining a grin knowing that, that was her exact plan, call her crazy if you like it wasn't like she was going to care.
"You cause trouble wherever you go!" Outburst Beca, she ran her hands through her hair and walked over to her desk, grabbed a beer from the small cabinet she kept there and popped the cap open letting the chilled liquid run down her throat.
"I've changed Becs, you of all people should know that," Olivia said moving to sit on the sofa, she was going to have to change her plan a little bit, oh well the outcome would still be the same, she would make sure of that.
After Beca drunk some of her beer she sat down on the sofa, away from Olivia but close enough. Her mind was in a mix of emotions, still, she knew she felt different to when she walked in and saw her standing there. The shock had worn off, but the anger was still there, all the memories were rushing back into her mind, reminding her of the past. Don't get her wrong, they had some good times, times where they laughed and had fun, but the only things that really stuck with Beca were the arguments and the shouting, the crying and the pain, the worst of it being what happened later on, after the break-up.
Neither of the girls spoke, they sat in silence the only sound being the faint droning of cars from the streets below. Beca had long finished her bottle of beer and was already on her third, she wasn't wasted, nowhere near, a little tipsy, maybe.
But what Beca hadn't realised is that Olivia had moved so she was right next to her, thighs almost touching, and she had an odd look in her eye, almost as if she was just watching her, tracing her every move.
Olivia looked behind her shoulder, everything was in place, it was game time, she hoped Beca had had fun, it wasn't like it would last, she knew her well enough to know that what she was about to do would ruin her life or at least break a piece of her.
"Hey Beca," Olivia said, Beca was shocked that Olivia was so close as she hadn't even noticed, she turned her head but was met with a pair of lips. She didn't move, she felt Olivia's hand rest on her cheek, caressing it lightly, her mind still hadn't caught up, she was stuck in shock and she had no clue what had just happened. When Olivia finally pulled away she had a smile on her face, Beca was staring blankly at her, not knowing how to react.
When her mind finally caught up with her, she jumped up and finally realised. She had no idea what happened, but what did know was that Olivia hadn't changed, she was still the same, still the same troublemaker, the same girl who didn't care what she did to others, the same girl who would do anything to get her way, and she fallen for it again.
"Get the fuck out Olivia. My god, I knew you were here to cause trouble, just stay out of my life, stay away from me and don't come back," Beca warned. Olivia just nodded and shrugged, she didn't care what Beca said, she had everything she needed. She went over to the side table and collected her bag, put her phone in her pocket and walked out, but before she left, she turned towards Beca who was pacing up and down.
"Good luck, Beca. You'll need it." Olivia said with a wink, Beca stopped her actions at her ex's voice, she had no clue what that was supposed to mean, Olivia had always been a mystery to her, she guessed some people really did never change.
Back at home…
Chloe had no idea where Beca was, she had tried phoning her but it had gone straight to voicemail, she was guessing that Beca had got herself holed up in the studio and had her phone on silent. She looked at the clock, it was half past 9 which was already quite late for the two of them, they were normally home by 8 and if either of them were going to be later they would text.
Chloe just shrugged it off and went to have a shower, as she walked up the stairs she looked back at all the memories she had with Beca, the happiest times of her life had been with the girl, and in the long run they hadn't been together long, but to her it had felt like a lifetime. Beca had shown her so much, taught her more about herself then she would ever know and made her happier than she had been in a long time, she had learnt that to get to the best times in her life she had to go through the bad. Tom was the bad times but in her heart, she believed that Beca was the good, the person she had been searching for, the person that would love her and would carry her through the dark hours of her life and finally be the one she could always rely on.
Some days she still didn't understand how a girl like Beca could love a girl like her. In her mind she was broken, she still went through phases where she didn't believe in herself, didn't believe she was good enough, but Beca kept her believing. Kept loving her, and kept caring for her.
She stepped into the shower, let the hot water run down her body, calming her aching muscles and sighed deeply letting all the stress from work out. She loved working with Beca but she couldn't lie, it was undeniably stressful. There was always phone calls and meetings to organise, it also didn't help that Beca could be an extremely forgetful and not to mention stubborn person so sometimes it was like working with a 5-year-old rather than her fully adult girlfriend. Things would constantly get changed round especially with the high profile artists coming and going as they always had busy schedules and on their end things would get moved as well. But she loved it, work had always been her way of being able to fully immerse herself, giving her no time to let her mind get invaded by things that would distract her, a reason she was always so busy when she was with Tom.
After she was finished, she stepped out and wrapped herself in a fluffy white towel, walked into her and Beca's room and changed into a black t-shirt and a pair of grey jogging bottoms, she lightly dried her wet auburn hair off and then tied it into a loose bun on top of her head.
She checked her phone as she wandered downstairs, still nothing, she quickly typed out a text to Beca, it was already just past 10 and Chloe was becoming worried especially as she hadn't heard anything all night.
Hot DJ: Hey, what time u home? Love you xx
Chloe decided to go and watch a film in the lounge so she grabbed some popcorn from the cupboard and then pulled a warm blanket over herself and curled up on the sofa and began watching one of the films that they had. Since she'd moved in, she had expanded Beca's film collection, well if you could count 3 as a collection, she had added some of her favourites as well as a few she thought Beca may like, but at the minute she was watching Fast and Furious, for some reason she could always imagine Beca being one of those racers from her love of cars, and when Chloe had got Beca to watch it she had immediately been interested in all the vehicles that they had, so in Chloe's book that was a definite keeper.
Back at the office…
Beca was sitting on the sofa her head in her hands massaging her temples, her thoughts were going a million miles a minute and she was shaking, her legs were bouncing up and down and she had no idea what to do.
She blamed herself for this whole mess, she had no clue what Olivia was doing here but wherever Olivia was there was trouble. Beca didn't know what her intentions were, coming into her office, invading her privacy and then kissing her out of the blue. She was angry, confused, sad, she just felt...everything.
The very thought of having to tell Chloe made her feel sick, which just made her feel guilty because she had no excuse. She didn't push Olivia away when it happened, why? She didn't really know, but it was something about the familiarity of it and the flooding of all their memories together that seemed to distract her from doing anything and she hated herself for it. Chloe was everything to her and she could bear it if Chloe left her, but telling her would be the right thing to do. Beca was stuck, she wanted to be selfish, didn't want Chloe to know, didn't want her to know that she had done wrong by her, but most importantly she didn't want Chloe to be disappointed in her, because she knew, once Chloe found out, it would end them.
She was angry, angry at herself, angry at Olivia, angry at everything, she grabbed a glass candle off the coffee table and threw it haphazardly at the wall making it shatter into a thousands of shards onto the floor, the wax had cracked and was now partially stuck on the wall and over the floor. She let out an angry scream, screaming at everything and trying to forget what happened.
Olivia had just walked into her office, just walked right in, that's where this mess started. Wait. How did she even get in? Beca sat up and walked down to the security, she was fuming. After the whole Tom scenario, she had employed better security yet Olivia had just been allowed to waltz through. Beca tapped her foot quickly as the lift took her down to the lobby.
As soon as Beca exited the lift the three security guards saw her and they stopped their conversation and straightened up, Beca glared at them and came to a stop folding her arms over her chest.
"Miss Mitchell, can we help you with anything?" One of asked looking a bit nervous at his bosses demeanour.
"What to tell me how someone just walked into my office who wasn't authorized to enter my building. Does the name Olivia Jenkins ring a bell to you? Because to me, she is one of the few people to never, ever be allowed to enter my building." Beca said adding emphasis on the word my.
The guy in the middle, and on the left looked worried and didn't know what to say, but the one on the right pushed his shoulders back and spoke up.
"Miss Mitchell, I can assure you no one under the name Olivia Jenkins has entered the building if she did we would know about it. We have three levels of security, are you sure it was her?" he asked.
"Of fucking course it was! I'm not stupid. Let me look at your CCTV, she's pulled this type of shit before," Beca said as a thought came into her mind. She was led into the control room where she saw multiple screens all displaying footage of her building.
"Go back at least 45 minutes ago," Beca ordered, the security guard quickly complied, they watched for around 2 minutes when a girl appeared in the corner of the screen.
"That's her!" Beca exclaimed pointing at the screen. The guy enlarges the image and slowed it down so they could see exactly how she got in. She placed a small card into the scanner and to Beca's surprise it allowed her in.
"Pull up everyone who has entered the building tonight." The security system allowed them to see exactly who comes in and out of the building as it would register their ID from the card they would bring and then it would be stored in a database.
They kept scrolling until Beca stopped him, "There!" IT was the ID of a girl she was positive didn't work with her, she knew almost everyone in the building and she had never seen her before in her life.
"That's her!" Beca said.
"But how did the scanner authorize someone who doesn't work here?" Beca thought out loud.
"Miss Mitchell, look at this," The guy said. He pointed to the profile and she saw that it had been added to the list of employees registered to have access 2 days ago. Olivia had made a fake account, she knew the girl was smart but this was a whole new level, even for her.
"Remove it now!" Beca demanded, she walked out and made a decision on her way back up to her office, she wasn't going to tell Chloe. She couldn't know the truth, it would break her, and Beca didn't want to lose Chloe, selfish? Maybe, but at this point, Beca didn't care. She picked up her phone from the floor and put it into her pocket not bothering to check it.
She looked at the clock on the wall and saw it was coming up to around half 10, she was late. Chloe was going to kill her, and she knew she was going to have to come up with some type of excuse to cover up what had happened. She grabbed her laptop, keys and her wallet then went down to her car.
She started it up and then drove back to her apartment, she was pretty sure she broke multiple of the speed limits but she wasn't bothered, she just wanted to go home, to be with Chloe and forget tonight ever happened.
But what she forgot is, that we all have something to hide, something the world doesn't know, and we hope it never finds out, and unfortunately for her, the truth always comes out.
She walked into her apartment the only light was from the TV, she could see the outline of Chloe snuggled up on the sofa, the guilt was weighing heavily in her stomach, just knowing that her beautiful girlfriend had been sitting at home waiting for her, and she was caught up in a mess with her ex, made her feel twice as bad, not to mention she was going to have to lie to Chloe something she vowed to herself never to do, but she couldn't lose Chloe. She wouldn't lose Chloe.
She slipped her shoes off and silently made her way over to Chloe making sure not to scare her, she walked around to the side of the sofa and eased herself onto the cushions and pushed herself closer to the redhead who looked startled but when she realised it was her little brunette she smiled and made space for Beca allowing her to be able to spoon her from behind.
"Where have you been?" Chloe asked, keeping her eyes on the TV.
"I'm sorry baby, I got caught up at work, you know how I get," Beca said giving Chloe a kiss on the side of her head. Her inner voice just kept chanting "Liar! Liar! Liar!" but she ignored it and kept her mind focused on Chloe.
"I missed you," Chloe said softly turning to look at her.
"I missed you too baby," Beca said tucking a strand of hair behind Chloe's ear and cupping her jaw giving her soft kiss on her lips.
"I left you some food in the fridge if you are hungry," Chloe mentioned.
"I'm fine, thank you, it's too late now for me to eat."
They continued watching the film and it was nearing 11 when Chloe's phone chimed, Beca had fallen asleep on the sofa curled into Chloe and therefore hadn't heard the noise. Chloe looked at the phone at opened up the message, when she saw it she got up out of her seat and walked away. Beca fell onto the sofa as Chloe had been supporting her head and the soft impact woke her up.
"Chloe?" Beca murmured sleepily., she got no response, she could only hear the quick but soft pads of Chloe's feet walking up the stairs. She had no idea what was going on so she got up and followed her, when she walked the stairs she saw their bedroom light on, so she walked in and the sight before her made her stop in her tracks.
Chloe had a suitcase out on their bed and was throwing clothes into it, tears were pouring from her eyes and her mascara was running down her face.
"Chloe! What's going on?" Beca asked walking into their room.
"Get away from me!" Chloe warned, her eyes were hooded, a now navy colour compared to her normal happy ocean blues.
"Chlo! Baby, talk to me!" Beca begged she was becoming increasingly worried about her girlfriend.
"Don't 'baby' me. What the hell is this?" Chloe said nearly shouting. She threw Beca her phone and on there were photos of her and Olivia...kissing. The sneaky motherfucker, Beca's jaw clenched, everything was coming out, she knew this would happen if Chloe found out, and she was pretty sure Olivia did too.
Chloe watched Beca's reaction, "So that's where you were tonight, huh? Making out with god knows who! I thought you loved me Beca!" Chloe choked out.
"It was Olivia," Beca said quietly.
"Oh she has a name as well, that's great. So while I was waiting for my girlfriend to come home she was making out with her ex, that's really great Beca," Chloe said sarcastically. She was throwing clothes into her suitcase and Beca was so annoyed she walked over to it and began pulling the clothes back out.
"Let me explain," Beca said angrily.
"No!" Chloe cut her off, "I don't want to hear it, I don't want to see you, get out!" Chloe shouted she was broken. Seeing the girl she loved so much kissing another girl had shattered her, she had been hurt so many times by Tom in the past and she finally thought she found her happy ending, but now she doesn't think that happy endings exist.
Chloe kept putting things in her suitcase grabbing the things that Beca had taken out, she zipped it up and was about to move when Beca dove forward and captured her lips and a searing kiss, she almost kissed her back as Beca was like a dug to her but the images of Olivia and her came into her mind and she pushed her away, and she saw the tears in Beca and the desperation in her eyes.
Deep down she knew there was a lot more to the story but she wasn't in the right frame of mind to hear any of it. She grabbed her suitcase and carried it down the stairs, Beca running after her.
"Chloe! Please, don't leave. I love you so much, please don't go. We can talk about this, Just let me explain!" Beca pleaded, but Chloe just kept walking, she knew that if she stopped she may not leave and right now, she had to leave.
As Chloe was about to reach the elevator to go down, Beca grabbed her wrist and held it tightly. "Please Chloe, don't leave me. I love you." Beca said tears running down her face, she was losing her, she was losing Chloe.
"Goodbye Beca." Was all Chloe said. She walked into the elevator and as the doors shut behind her she began crying, she loved Beca. She still does, she just needed time, but not like everyone else, she needed time to live by herself. She went from being in a relationship with Tom to practically being in one with Beca, and she loved it., but right now, she felt like she needed to clear her mind of everything that had happened in her past and focus on herself.
Beca was a mess she was crying uncontrollably in the same spot as when Chloe left the only difference was that she was on the floor.
She had lost her. She had lost the only person who made her feel whole, made her feel like she was on top of the world, made her feel like the luckiest girl ever to be with someone as special as the redhead, but now she had lost her. She had truly lost her.
She had lost Chloe.
And she didn't know what to do.
