BEALE'S RESIDENCE

Chloe is cleaning Beca's wound before they can proceed with their dinner. Emily and Bailey who are both still sitting on the chairs at the dining table wonders what happened when her momma and Aunts run all of a sudden towards the house.

'Are they afraid at my mom's reaction if she finds out?' Bailey whispered to her Aunt Emily 'Oh absolutely, you see, you still haven't seen your mother on her pissed state.'

'Is she scary? Scarier than my momma smiling like a creep right now?' the girls look at Beca who is looking at Chloe with a creepy smile on her face. Emily then nods her head at the little redhead.

The older redhead puts some bandage on her wife's wound and look at the girls. When she looks at Beth and Amy, the two girls look away immediately and made her furrow her eyebrows.

"Okay, before we head back to the dining area, can someone please tell me what happened while I was outside?" she asks.

The girls including Beca start to talk all at once making Emily and Bailey laugh.

"Stop!" Chloe said "One at a time. Now I'll be the one to choose who will explain first." She added. All the girls prays she won't choose Amy or they were doomed.

"Amy-"but before Chloe can finish her sentence the blonde girl cuts her off "Why it has to be me Chloe? Why?! I kept your secret that you travel to LA so you can check on your sick wife! I kept that from them and even lied that my late late late grandma cooked that soup!" she said.

"And now I'm the one who needs to explain things to you!" she continues 'Please stop her.' Aubrey whispered to Stacie but when Chloe looks at her she closes her mouth.

"But fine if you want to know the truth, I'll tell you…" Amy added, the girls look at each other then to Chloe but then they saw what Amy did to them when they interrogate her.

"I C-can't breathe… I can't breathe…" Chloe starts to panic and notice the other girl's lack of action "Does she has asthma?" she asks.

"Yeah, that's what she said to us." CR answered and lean back on the sofa "Then where's her inhaler? Can someone please check her bag quick!"

"Nah, she doesn't have any medicine for that." Beca said "What? What do you mean by that?"

"You just need to tell her that you're not going to ask her any more questions or let alone explain things to you." Chloe furrow her eyebrows at her wife who shrugs her shoulder at her.

"C-chloe I'm going to die. J-just say it! Say it!" Amy said "Fine! I won't ask or explain it to me." In a matter of seconds, the blonde girl smiles and stands up.

"So can we eat now?" she asks.

=/=/=/=

During dinner time, the girls forget what happened a while ago and talk about things that will take their mind off of 'Beca bought a house next to Chloe's'. They are happily chatting about their embarrassing moments and Chloe get the chance to tell stories about her college years.

She's in the middle of telling her stories when she remembers something.

"Are you doing something tomorrow morning?" she asks Beca sitting next to her "Uhm no, why?"

"There's a PTA meeting in Bailey's school and if you want you could join us." Beca happily nodded her head but thinks what a PTA meeting is.

'She doesn't know what PTA stands for huh?' Aubrey whispered to Stacie 'By the look on her face, you're right.'

"Great! So I can introduce you to Bailey's teachers and friends." Chloe excitedly said "But how are you going to introduce her? I mean you know…" CR asked.

"Oh, I'm still going to introduce her as my wife. We're still married." Chloe simply said and that makes Beca's heart warm. She promises herself that Chloe Beale will stay married with her no matter what happens.

"Do you know what PTA means mate?" here comes Amy and Beca scoffs "Of course! I'm not that stupid!"

"Okay what P stands for?" Beca swallow a big lump first and opens her mouth when she felt Chloe's hand on hers. The redhead starts to write letters on her palm.

"Parent!" Beca answered "T?"

"Teacher!" Beth, Aubrey and Stacie smiles when the redhead winks at them "And A is for Association." Beca proudly said.

"Nice one momma! See? She's one smart gal like me." All of them laugh when Beca gives thumbs up to her daughter "I thought it stands for Paternal Twins Administration." Amy butted in.

"It's Fraternal Twins, Amy." Emily said "Oh stop correcting me! I'm allergic to you and you know that!" the girls laugh once more as they continue eating the dinner Chloe made for them.

It was time to say goodbye because it's already 10 in the evening. Its way past Bailey's bedtime and the little redhead needs to rest.

"I'll see you tomorrow okay?" Beca said to her while carrying her towards her room upstairs "Can't you stay?" the brunette look behind her and saw Chloe leaning on the door.

'As much as I want to but you know I need to unpack.' Beca whispered and the little redhead giggles "Okay momma, see yah tomorrow then." She lay her down on the bed and Chloe went to their side to kiss her daughter's forehead.

"Good night little one. I love you." The redhead simply said "Good night to mom, love you more." Chloe step aside so Beca can kiss her good night too.

"Love you little bug, I'll see you tomorrow." She said "Love you too momma." The two girls quietly walk out of the room as Chloe turn the light off and closes the door.

"So what time do you need me here? I can be here at 9" Beca ask her wife as they both walk towards the stairs "Me and Bailey will run tomorrow, well basically she rides her bike and I'm sure we're still not here by that time." The redhead answered "Plus the meeting will start at 11 in the morning so if it's okay with you may be around 10-ish?

"Hmm I'll go with you girls for your morning exercise so I'll be here before eight." Chloe giggles and they both stop climbing down the stairs "What?" Beca asks.

"You don't do exercise Beca. Remember when I asked you to come run with me, you said you rather sleep than run and changing channels on TV is already an exercise for you."

"Well that's the old me. I've changed."

"I like the old one better." Chloe then winks at her and continue going down the stairs "Still I'm coming and I'll tell the girls to join us too." The brunette answered while following her wife from behind.

"Good luck with that!" Beca rolled her eyes at her while Chloe laugh out loud thinking how she'll convince the girls to join them tomorrow morning.

=/=/=/=

Chloe lend her car to Beca for the night so it'll be easy for them to go to Beth's house and they're also going to drive Aubrey, Emily and Stacie at the taller brunette's house.

"Make sure to lock the doors and windows before you go up." Beca said, the girls are all waiting for inside the car. Beca insisted to drive Stacie, Aubrey and Emily to their house because it's not out of the way.

"And call me if you need anything." She added "Yeah call her mate because she'll be there before you can even open your eyes." Aubrey slaps Amy's shoulder to stop her from talking.

"Don't mind her, go inside." Beca said "Okay, drive safe and good night Becs."

"Good night too Chlo, see you tomorrow." The two girls stares at each other for a while but then hears a loud beeping behind the smaller brunette "Oh come on Beca, kiss her alrwady!" Stacie whines who is sitting in the passenger seat in front.

"Uhm okay, have a good night." Beca said and quickly turn around to hide herself from blushing. She took a step forwards but then she felt a hand stopping her. Chloe then spun her around and kiss her on the cheeks "See yah tomorrow." The redhead said and happily went inside her house.

Beca went inside the car and she heard kissing sound behind her and know that the girls is teasing her "Stop that will ya?!" she said and starts the engine.

"You need to drive a little further. Chloe loves to look out the window for a couple of minutes." Stacie said. The shorter brunette nods her head and drive pass by 5 houses. She then turns the car around and park it in front of the house before hers.

She turns off the ignition and look at Chloe's house.

"Do you think she's already upstairs?" she asks "Well the lights on the porch so yeah possible." Stacie answered.

"Don't tell me that this is where you're going to park her car?" CR asked "Of course not! I'm going to park it in my garage but I need your help."

"Help for what?" Beca then looks at Amy and smiles "In pushing the car to the drive way."

"What?! You want us to push the car?" Aubrey glares at her friend who is nodding at her "Come on, Chloe might hear the engine. What if she looks out of the window and saw her car entering my garage."

"Fine! Let's get do this once and for all because I want to go to bed." Beth answered and went out of the car "Should that include me?" Emily asks Beca.

"Nah, stay there. Leave it with the grown-ups." The girls start to stand behind the car and push it. It start moving slowly while Beca steering the wheel.

"So Beca, can you tell us now how did you end up buying a house beside Chloe?" Stacie asked while pushing "Like what I've told you before, I let Bailey pick a house. I didn't know she'll choose one that's beside theirs. Can you push a little harder?" She answered.

"And you didn't ask the agent when you gave her a call?" Aubrey is the one asking now and the girls try their best to push harder because the brunette behind the steering wheel is complaining.

"I only call her to ask where I will send the money and what papers she needs from me. When she gave me the address, I have no idea it's on their street."

"But Aubrey gave you their address when you went here, three times in two weeks!" CR answered "Well you see Beca likes to Assume and saying things she didn't mean but don't forget that she can be stupid sometimes and doesn't remember things." Amy said.

"Hey I heard that! Well it's already done and there's no way I'm going to refund my money so I can buy a new one again."

"Then tell Chloe tomorrow that you're living next door. She won't mind, trust me." Beth said and they are almost at the garage "Just give me enough time to find courage okay girls? But I will tell her sooner." She answered and step on the breaks.

EARLY THE NEXT MORNING (6:30 AM)

Beca is already awake and drinking her juice by the window. She's looking outside to watch her neighbours. She also needs to park Chloe's car on the side of the road before the redhead wakes up.

Once done drinking, she checks on Aubrey, Amy and CR. Stacie, Beth and Emily went home last night and that the six girls refused to join her morning session with Chloe and Bailey. The taller brunette told her that Chloe always wakes up around 6:45 so it's time for her to go.

She places some money and a note on the table. She wants Aubrey to buy some food and things they need. She ordered Amy to water the plants in front while CR will clean the house while she's gone. She giggles thinking of their reactions once they see her note.

She happily steps out of her house and walk over to Chloe's. She's carrying a duffel bag where her clothes are and knock on the door when she reaches the porch. It took a minute or two before the door opens and a smiling Chloe greets her day.

"Hey…" Chloe said and give her a hug "You're early." She said and motion for her to come in.

"Yeah I know sorry. I'm just excited that's all." Beca answered trying not to be nervous again "It's okay. I'm preparing food for later. Would you like some tea or juice?"

"Thank but I'm good. Bailey's still sleeping?"

"She's in her room; you can go up if you like."

"Nah, I'll just wait for her here." Chloe smiles but notice the uneasiness on the girl in front of her "Are you okay?" she asks.

"Huh? I mean yeah of course I am okay. You know, just tired and a bit sleepy."

"You don't have to go with us Becs, you can sleep here for a while then I'll wake you up once we're home."

"No, no, I'm fine and I don't want to miss this running session with you and our daughter." the redhead nods her head and head towards the kitchen. Beca follows her from behind.

"So how's your sleep?" Chloe asks again and give her a slice of bread "Its okay, it's kinda hot and dusty." Beca answered as she takes a bite on her bread and didn't realize what she just said.

"Hot and dusty?" the brunette widen her eyes and that didn't go unnoticed to her wife "Oh yeah I mean, we rolled down the window to conserve gas though it's kinda hot, yeah." She notices the way Beca rambles and not giving herthe right answer to her question. She's asking about her sleep, not the ride back to the hotel.

"So dusty means the dust from the road?"

"Yes! Why you're so smart?" she takes another bite to cover her nervousness but Chloe knows her better "Do you want to tell me something Beca?"

The brunette shook her head a few times so Chloe just shrugs her shoulder.

"Momma!" the two girls saw Bailey running towards her and give her a hug "Hey! Morning kiddo!" she said; the little redhead then run towards her mother and did the same thing. Chloe watch the interaction between the two but still thinking why her wife is always nervous when she's around.

At exactly 8:15 in the morning, the couple Beca and Chloe together with their daughter went out of the house and starts to run. Before they left, the older redhead ask her wife if she'd like to use her bike but she said no and wants to run with her. She also told the brunette to do some stretching first but again she said that she doesn't need it.

They are now passing the house Beca bought and Chloe furrows her eyebrows "So we have a new neighbour huh? You want to say hi Bailey?"

The little redhead looks at her momma while she did the same "Ah no, let's do that later mom. I think they are still sleeping." And Bailey starts to pedal her bike again.

Minutes passes by, Chloe and Beca are exchanging some topics while running. Bailey is in front of them. They've been running for just 30 minutes and Beca looks like she's been running for more than an hour now.

Chloe shook her head and giggles but Beca who is busy reminding herself to smile and act like she's not going to collapse so she didn't see the look on her wife's face. They reach the park and Chloe told Beca to have some rest for a while.

"I'm not tired babe. I'm good!" she answered and still standing "You sure?"

"Yes I'm sure, now come on. I'll race ya!" she answered and speeds off. Bailey looks at her mother and they both giggle "Did you bring your phone baby?"

"Yes mom and I know we need reinforcement now." She then took her phone from the basket in front of her bike and sent a text message to her Aunt Stacie.

Another fifteen minutes passes by of running and biking, the Beale-Mitchell family saw Stacie, Aubrey, CR and Amy coming their way. Bailey waves her hand at them as they stop in front of the three.

"Special delivery for Beca Mitchell." Stacie said and the girls laugh "I don't need a bike." The brunette answered when her friend places the bike in front of her.

"Come on Beca, you look like shi- oh look a see-saw!" Amy said and she, Bailey and CR run towards it "So how's the running?" Aubrey ask; she looks at Beca first then to Chloe.

"It's good. I didn't know Beca's stamina is different from before." Stacie and Aubrey feel that the redhead knows her wife is going to collapse any moment now.

"You want some water?" she asks Beca who gives her a nod, Chloe run towards Bailey's bike to get some "Okay you can collapse now." Aubrey said and with that word, the smaller brunette slump her body on the bench.

"I s-should go t-to the g-gym sometimes. So y-you know p-prepare my b-body in t-this k-kind of s-situation." Beca answered while catching her breath, the two girls laugh at her and shook their heads then a group of girls saw them.

"Is that Beca Mitchell? The famous DJ, singer and producer?" the three of them saw five girls looking at them then walk towards where they are.

"Can we have a picture with you?" the one asks "Are you here for vacation or you'll be staying here?" another one asks.

"Oh yes because her wife is here." Aubrey answered which makes Stacie laughs "Are you free? Can I invite you for a drink sometimes." the girl with a long blonde hair sits beside her and places her hand on the brunette's left thigh.

'Uh oh, if Chloe's going to see this, that girl will definitely die!' Stacie whispered to Aubrey "Ah no, I already have a wife and I'm happy with her." They hear Beca answered.

"I don't care, I know celebrities like you wants to play dirty sometimes." Beca then hold her hand to remove it from her but they hear someone clears her throat.

All of the girls including Stacie and Aubrey saw Chloe's serious face looking at Beca and holding bottled water in her hand "Your water." She said and hand it over to the brunette.

"O-oh thanks babe!" Beca answered "We're heading back, you comin' baby?" Stacie chuckles but Aubrey nudges her elbow at her. They saw how Chloe look at the girl who slightly moves away from the brunette.

"Of course honey." The redhead didn't wait for her and walks back to her daughter "I'm more fun than your redhead." The girl said while Beca is standing up.

"Well maybe but she's the only girl who owns my heart and wants for the rest of my life." The brunette then looks at the other girls "Sorry but I got to go."

"BECA!" Chloe shouted "Coming babe!" Aubrey and Stacie laughs on how Beca runs faster to catch up with the redhead.

"I don't think she needs to go to gym. She can run faster whenever Chloe yells her name." Stacie said which makes Aubrey laugh more.

=/=/=/=

Beca and Chloe are on their way to the PTA meeting at Bailey's school. Chloe's original plan is to bring their daughter with her but Aubrey told her that she and the girls will babysit for them. The little redhead agrees thinking she gives her two mothers some time alone.

When they arrive, Chloe parks the car on the side of the road and they both went in. They sign their names on the paper when one of Bailey's teachers saw the redhead.

"Ms. Beale! It's good to see you again." She said and gives the redhead a hug "Hello Mrs. Irving! It's good to see you again too." She answered. She then look at Beca but then look behind her.

"You came alone? Where's Beth or Stacie?" the redhead looks at the brunette who is gives her a small smile "Oh uhm I'm with my wife. I would like you to meet Ms. Beca Mitchell."

The lady look at her then gives the brunette and apologetic smile "Oh hello Ms. Mitchell, it's nice of you to join us."

"Ah hello too, uh well I'm willing to do anything for my daughter." Beca answered "Glad to hear that because Bailey is the most outstanding student in third grade. Like last school year she won first place in every quiz bee category."

"Really? I didn't know that." Though the brunette is smiling but deep down inside, there's a guilt building up for not being there for her daughter "Are you working overseas that's why you're not here?" the teacher asked.

Beca's been missing eight years of Bailey's life and throughout the years, the redhead never mentioned anything to anyone about Beca though her daughter is using her last name. She's not the type of person to babble what happened between her and the brunette and why she's MIA in the little redhead's life.

Chloe then hold Beca's hand and squeeze it "We should get going Mrs. Irving, I think the meeting is about to start."

"Oh yes of course, forgive me. Please go inside and you'll find some refreshment on the side." She answered "It's nice to meet you again Ms. Mitchell."

"Nice to meet you to Mrs. Irving." The couple walk pass by her and went inside.

"I'm sorry about that. Mrs. Irving tends to talk too much, you know." Beca smiled at her and gently squeezes her hand too "It's okay but when we get home, can you please tell me about our daughter's achievements?"

"I will Beca and sorry about that again." The redhead answered.

BECA'S POV

We've been sitting here for 45 minutes and I don't think what time this meeting will end. It's not that I'm complaining or bored, I'm happy to be part of this and be able to spend time with Chloe. Also, to learn things about my daughter's achievements in school and how smart she is which makes me proud.

But the thing is, most of the parents look at me somewhat asking where's Beth or Stacie and who am I joining Chloe this year. I don't want my mood to be ruin but it hurts to know that I haven't been there for her. Like helping her for her homework, picking her up or driving her to school, preparing snacks for her nad her friends.

Now I'm asking myself, will there be a chance that I can be a mother to her? Will Chloe give me a chance to do those things for our daughter? To show her I can change and be good for them?

I have a lot of questions, questions that doesn't have any answers for now. I know it's not right to be jealous of Beth and Stacie. They've been a parental figure to Bailey and took my place while I'm gone and I'm thankful for them in doing that.

I let out a sigh and felt an elbow nudging at me, I look to my wife and I saw her looking at me 'Is everything alright?' she whispered 'Y-yeah, everything's okay.' I whispered back.

'I saw the distant look on your face and I know you're not listening.'

'H-how'd you do that?'

'Well it's one of the powers I have. You know; Chloe Beale's powers.' She winks at me and I bit my lip to suppress my laughter. She then holds my hand once more and looks down at it.

'No matter what they say, don't feel guilty or feel down. If you only knew, I know you won't leave me so half of it is my fault.'

I give her an assuring smile but who am I kidding? I'd been missing for ten years in Chloe's life and eight years with my daughter. I'm good at ignoring things but this… this situation, I can't just ignore it. Let's face it, no matter how hard I try, even if I learned all of what happened to my daughter's life for the past eight years, it won't cover the guilt and pain I'm feeling right now.

Am I doing the right thing? Or I'll just let Chloe go and move on with her life. Will I be able to catch up with my daughter's life?

So many questions running in my mind but no matter how I look at Chloe, I can't find the answers.

=/=/=/=

Another hour passes by and the meeting ended. Chloe continues to introduce Beca to Bailey's teachers. The brunette smiles genuine but deep down inside, questions are still running inside her mind that she didn't hear what Bailey's teacher asks.

She felt someone nudge their elbow at her and when she look up, she saw the redhead worriedly looking at her "Oh uh I'm sorry…" she apologized and let out a small smile.

"It's okay. I know the feeling of sitting there for almost two hours. Believe me or not, I almost doze off a while ago." Beca smiles and look down on the floor for a while "I know Bailey will be happy that you're here for them now and I hope to see you in some of the school activities."

"You can count on me Ms. Olsen." The brunette then look at her wife "I'll go get something to drink, do you want some?"

"Yes please and thanks babe." Beca smiled at her and slowly walk-away though she knows that Chloe is following her with her gaze. She let out a deep breath, well she really is thirsty but she also wants to be alone for a while. She stands in front of table though there are only two choices, a water and juice.

She grabs bottled water and a red plastic cup to pour some juice in it. She's busy thinking at the same time concentrating not to spill anything on the table that she didn't saw a girl walking towards her with a flirtatious smile.

"I didn't think that being a mother suite your image." Beca almost drop the cup she's holding when she hears her voice.

Oh no please no…. not her please…

She slowly turns around and widens her eyes when she saw her.

"It's good to see you again Beca Mitchell."

Hi! Okay first of all sorry for not updating my stories for days… or weeks maybe? I got busy… sort of though I'll blame it all on my laziness. Anyway, I'm going to update all of my stories (I hope I can all post it today) as my peace offering to all of you.

Like I said, this story is going to end soon and I do hope you guys ready for a heartbreak? LOL but let's see.
