THE NEXT MORNING
The Beale-Mitchell family drops by at Beca's studio and give the two girls a tour. Aubrey called her early in the morning to tell her that she needs to be there or a while to talk to some of their sponsors for her concert at the end of the month.
It only took her 15 minutes to talk to them because she promised Bailey and Chloe that they are going to eat outside and do some shopping later. When they arrive at the mall, their daughter told them that she wants to do shopping first before they eat.
But the thing is, Beca and Chloe are being awkward to each other after what happened last night and Bailey wanted them to talk while she does her thing. She left her mommies at the bench as she looks at the display of shoes on the shelf.
Her phone rings and sees that her Aunt Stacie is calling her.
"Hello?" she answered while looking at the two "Hey B, what's going on there now?" she asks.
She and the little redhead have been texting since she wakes up and told Stacie that her mommies kissed last night… on the lips!
"Well they've been acting weird like they don't know each other. They are not even talking inside the car!"
Stacie lets out a chuckle and heard Bailey sighs "Sometimes I don't know why older people act that way."
"Once you're old enough, I'll explain it to you for now, keep an eye o those two and give me progress."
"Okay Aunt Stacie." And Bailey ended the call that lasted for more than five minutes and her mother's didn't do anything except for giving each other an awkward smile.
Do I have to do all the work around here?!
BECA'S POV
Okay I need to stop this looking-at-your-wife-discreetly contest with Chloe. She and I didn't speak to each other since this morning and its killing me inside. I didn't get enough sleep last night for thinking that she might be mad at me.
Of course she's mad at you! She's going to marry Beth and you kissed her on the lips… though it's not on purpose but still you kissed her!
I saw our daughter walking towards us and boy she has this serious look on her face. Her arms are cross on her chest and her eyes are bore into ours.
She looks like Chloe when she's like this but her mother is scarier!
Bailey stands in front of us, looking back and forth at Chloe and me.
"What's the matter?" she asks "What do you mean by what's the matter?" Chloe asks back.
"Oh come on mom! Don't ask me that kind of question and don't answer my question with a question too!"
"You're using the word 'question' a lot kiddo." I butted in but she glares at me.
And can you believe that?! My own daughter just glared at me!
Chloe and I look at each other then to Bailey and both of her hands are on her hips right now.
"WHY YOU AND MOM DIDN'T TALK SINCE LAST NIGHT? WHEN WE WERE EATING BREAKFAST, ALL YOU DO IS SECRETLY LOOKING AT EACH OTHER LIKE WHAT YOU'VE BEEN DOING A WHILE AGO! WHY ARE YOU TWO ACTING STRANGE ALL OF A SUDDEN?!" Bailey said.
"Young lady, it's not right to yell at your mothers!" Chloe answered "I'M NOT YELLING! I'M JUST EMPHASIZING ALL THE WORDS I'M SAYING! IT'S JUST A KISS! A GOOD NIGHT KISS! MARRIED COUPLE DO THAT AND YOU'RE STILL MARRIED!"
Okay I need to stop Bailey before she can say things we'll regret and she's getting a lot of attention from the others.
I smile at them then pull our daughter towards us "Your mom and I will talk about this later okay? For the meantime let's buy the things you need then we'll eat."
Bailey nods her head but look at Chloe "Do you promise you'll talk to momma later?"
"I will sweetheart; you've got nothing to worry." Our daughter gives us a small smile and we both know that we disappoint her on the way we react with each other.
"Go and get your cart so we can pay for it." We watch her run to where she came from and I look at my redhead sitting beside me "Do you really want to talk to me about what happened last night?" I ask her.
She stares at me for a while and sighs before she answers "Yeah and there's something I need to tell you." I nod my head at her and saw that she's playing the ring on her finger.
Maybe she's going to tell me about her and Beth, that they are going to get married in three months.
I feel my blood boils and went straight into my head but I bit my lip to stop myself from saying something.
I won't let that happen, I'll do anything so you can give me chance… a chance to have you again and stay with me until my last breath.
Bailey told the two that she wanted to eat at IN-N-OUT because she's craving for a burger. The couple agrees immediately and Beca is the one who ordered their food. She came back as they waited for the food.
Chloe is laughing at Beca and Bailey's banter about the brunette being so small. The DJ defends herself and says that it's not her fault; it's her grandfather and grandmother's fault which made Chloe laugh again.
I hope I can hear that laugh every day for the rest of my life.
Beca smiles while she's looking at Chloe so she didn't saw a tall girl with strawberry blonde hair and brown orbs waving at her.
"Hey baby! It's been a while since I saw you." The girl said and this time the smile on Beca's face disappears.
Please not now! Oh please God spare me this time!
Chloe who stops from laughing looks at the pretty girl standing beside their table. She then looks at her wife who is staring at the human being.
I can't make her stare at me like that.
"Uhm Beca? You okay?" the girl asks "Oh yeah hi! Ah yeah it's been a while." The brunette answered.
"Are you alone? Do you want some company?" Bailey and Chloe waited for Beca to answer though the little redhead likes what she's seeing. She's looking at her mother and the way she glares at the girl.
But she knows how scary her mom can be if she's jealous or sit with someone she hates and doesn't like.
"She's with me and my mom." Bailey answers, the girl looks at her then to Chloe and gives a small smile "Yeah I'm with my daughter and my… uh wife!"
Bailey wanted to laugh on what her momma says 'Wrong answer momma.' Bailey whispered to herself.
Beca looks at Chloe and saw how serious her face is. Her heart starts to beat faster and she knows that she just unlea0sh the beast inside her.
Oh what have I done?! – Beca
What does she mean by 'uh wife'? It seems like she doesn't want the girl to know she's married with?! And who the fuck is this girl?! Why am I being jealous?!
'Oh fuck I'm not jealous.' Chloe whispered as she reminds herself "Oh well, I hope your wife won't mind if I join you guys for lunch."
Beca was about to say something when Chloe speaks up "Sure you can join us, it will be my treat."
The food Beca ordered arrives and she told her wife and daughter that they can eat while waiting for her friend's order.
Friend my ass!
She's trying hard to focus on her food but her mind is telling her that she's not hungry and all she can think about is the mysterious girl flirting at her wife. Bailey notice that her mother is playing with her food.
"Hey mom, why aren't you eating?" she ask and stuff some fries into her mouth "I'm not yet hungry sweetheart, don't mind me and just eat your food." Chloe answered.
All she wanted to do is to walk-out and not watch the girl being too close on her wife but she's not rude to just stand up and leave. Little did she know that Beca is also looking at her too.
"Where's mine?" she heard the girl asks "I think they are still making your burger, we ordered ahead of you." Bailey is the one who answered her.
The girl smiled at her and winks "What's your name little girl?"
"My name is Bailey. Bailey Mitchell." And she extends her hand at her and the girl gladly accepts it "Wow! So it is true huh? The bachelorette DJ Mitchell already has a kid."
"Yup so she's off the market because she is still married at me mom, by the way she's my mother, Chloe Beale."
The girl raise an eyebrow at her and Chloe did the same "Oh really? But why Beca never mentioned you before?" she asks Chloe. Beca wanted to slap the girl's head for saying those things.
I don't think I'll live and see the daylight tomorrow! – Beca said to herself.
Before Chloe answers, she took a sip from her cup and force a smile on her face "Hmm, Beca knows I like my privacy and she doesn't need to brag about me."
The girl opens her mouth to say something but Chloe didn't let her "Didn't you know? Study says that those who brag about their relationship are the ones who are insecure… So for us, it's better to shut up and live peacefully."
Beca smirk at Chloe but the latter didn't see it. She's proud to say that the redhead is her wife "But she hid you from her fans and supporters." The girl says.
"That's our decision. I mean, her fans love her so much and they will still support her, single or not. Did you get my point?" The girl nods her head then look at Beca.
"What about you? Do you have plans to have a kid?" Chloe asks her and steal a piece of fries from her daughter's "Yeah but every time I mentioned it to Beca, she always ignores me."
"It's because she already has a daughter with me and she only like to have one, right babe?" Chloe looks at the brunette who nod her head furiously "One and only daughter and she's already sitting in front of me." Beca answered.
Bailey smiles but deep inside, she wanted to laugh at her them especially to her mother who is obviously jealous at the girl.
"Won't you introduce us your friend?" Chloe asks Beca who almost spit out the soda in her mouth. It's not that she's shock to hear that from Chloe but the truth is, she doesn't know the name of the girl.
I've been with many girls; way too many to even memorize their name! Okay Mitchell you must think and use all your brain cells to remember her name or Chloe will know that you dated hundreds of girls!
"Oh yeah right, uhm guys this is…" as she looks at the girl but even though she think hard, she can't remember her name "Her name is Lenny Seacrest!"
The girl furrows her eyebrows at her and corrected her name "It's Lilianne, Beca."
Chloe narrow her eyes at her and ask "Who's Lenny?"
Bailey on the other hand giggles at her momma who looks like a deer caught in the headlights.
After an awkward silent after the question and answer, the girl decided to split right after she finished eating. On their way home, Chloe sits at the back seat but it took ten minutes before she convinced Bailey to sit at the passenger seat in front. Beca and Chloe have been quiet and the brunette keep on looking at her wife through the rear view mirror.
Is she jealous? But why?! She's going to get married in three months!
Beca let out a frustrated sigh; she's confused on how Chloe reacted. She can't lie to her that she's jealous. They've been together for 3 years (1 year being married). Once they arrive at Beca's place, Chloe immediately went to the Bailey's room and lock the door.
"Oohhhh someone is in trouble!" Bailey says while they are both looking at the little girl's door "But I didn't do anything!" Beca answered.
"Well instead of stopping her from inviting the girl to join our lunch, all you did was nod your head and smile creepily." Bailey answered.
"Hey! I don't smile like a creep and besides who would know if she's being sarcastic inviting Lenny at our lunch."
"It's Lilianne momma."
"Whatever her name is, I don't give a fu—fudge!" she walks towards the living room and slump her body on the sofa.
I don't know what's going on in your mind right now but if I want to ask you to give me one last chance, I need to do something right now so you'll know that you're the only girl in my life.
Bailey sits beside her and looks at her "What can I do huh?" Beca ask the little one "Err I don't know. She's your wife!"
"And she's your mom!"
"Look momma, if ever I made her upset, I always try to cook something for her or wrote a poem. Well you're a singer then why not sing her a song." Beca smiles and hugs her daughter when she gave her an idea.
"Yeah and I know what will I do." Beca stands up and extend her hand at Bailey who holds it and they both goes inside her room. She took her guitar and pluck the strings.
"Come now; let's make your mom smiles." Beca says to her daughter "Can I sing too momma?"
"Sure love, do you want me to pick a song for you?"
"Nope, I want to write something for her." Beca smiles sweetly and can't wait to her what their daughter will write for her mother.
15 minutes has passed and the two girls, Beca and Bailey, are now standing in front of the door.
"Okay, are you ready?" Beca asks her daughter "Yes momma and you?"
The brunette nods her head at the little girl "Do you want to sing with me?"
"Yes! Let's get this started!" Beca then starts to play her guitar at the tune of Are You Lonesome Tonight?
"Are you lonesome tonight…" the brunette starts to sing
"Dudududum…" and Bailey joins her "Do you miss me tonight?"
"Dudududum…"
"Are you-"
"Dudududum…" the brunette stops on playing and Bailey smiled at her sheepishly "Baby can we ah stop with the 'dudududum'?
"Sure momma, okay from the top." Chloe who hears the two from inside the room laughs and shook her head.
"Are you lonesome tonight" Beca starts to sing again
"Do you miss me tonight?
Are you sorry, we drifted apart
Does your memory stray to a brighter sunny day?
When I kissed you and called you sweetheart?" and the two saw the door slowly opening.
"Do the chairs in your parlour seem empty and bare?
Do you gaze at your doorstep and picture me there?" Beca starts to walk towards Chloe and smiles sweetly at her.
"Is your heart filled with pain, shall I come back again?
Tell me Chloe, are you lonesome tonight?"
Chloe smiles and looks down at the floor "I'm sorry for the way I reacted." She said "No, I should be the one to say sorry. I shouldn't let her join our lunch." Beca answered.
She then hold the redhead's hands and squeezes it "You're the only girl I want Chloe, you're the only one who owns my heart."
"Beca…"
"I know, let's talk tonight okay?"
"Yeah, I'd like that."
"So you're not mad at me?"
"No I'm not and why would I?" Beca was about to say something at her wife when Bailey interrupts them.
"Hey! I still have to sing my song!" she said, Chloe looks at Beca and crosses her arms on her shoulder "You? Singing?" the older redhead asked.
"Yes! As you can see, I do have some of my momma's genes so I'm sure I can sing too and I wrote a song for you." The little girl answered.
"Really? Then let me hear it." Bailey winks at her mom; fish out a paper in her pocket and some bling bling she borrowed from her mother. She also put the hat she's holding "Do you need some—" but Bailey cuts her off.
"It's okay momma, I can do this on me own." She motion for the two girls to follow her at the living room and let them sit on the sofa.
"Okay, the song I'm about to sing is the rap version of Are you lonesome tonight and also my own lyrics."
'Is she really serious?' Chloe whispered to Beca who shrug her shoulders "I listened to the rhythm of the song so here it goes."
The couple are both smiling and excited to hear their daughter and the little redhead starts to rap.
"Are you lonesome tonight
Coz you feel like crying overnight
When you got jealous over that girl
Because you still have feelings for your old girl."
Beca is shock to hear the song Bailey wrote for Chloe and she's also scared to look at the redhead sitting beside her.
"And all you want to do is throw the cup you're holding
So Lilianne can stop on flirting
If the glare you gave can kill
She'll be now buried at the hill
Momma is now confused
On why you are jealous and so obvious
You should be honest and tell her what you feel
All the love you have
The smile, the smirk and even the kiss
Oh mom let's be real
For this is the real deal
Break it down yo!"
Beca's jaw almost drops on the floor while Chloe don't know how she'll react.
"So, do you like it?" Bailey asked the two, the brunette smiled at her and nods her head but then felt an elbow on her side. Chloe on the other hand, stands up and walks towards her daughter.
"Did you really write these?" she asks "Yes! I told you I have her genes."
"I don't believe you wrote this ALONE."
"I'm not lying to you mom."
"You're just 8 and you used some words there that you don't even know the meaning."
"Of course I do!"
Chloe crosses her arms on her chest and raise an eyebrow at her "Where did you get all those words huh?"
"Online Dictionary!" Beca laughs but stops when her wife looks at her and Chloe counts from one to ten and closes her eyes.
The nerve of my daughter! Why is she doing this to me?!
"Mom? Hey mom!" she hears Bailey calling her, the older redhead opens her eyes and she saw her daughter looking intently at her "What?!" she ask.
"Why are you blushing?"
"Bailey!" Chloe shouted and the little girl run towards her room and lock the door before her mother follows her.
