Chapter 26: A Chance To Prove Myself
"So, this is it. Are you more nervous or excited?" Jesse asked, watching Beca as she paced back and forth around the music room. Today was the day that the brunette was going to ask Chloe to prom, so it was understandable why she would be nervous or excited, or both.
"Nervous," Beca answered, running her fingers through her hair. "What if I mess up the song and she breaks up with me? So many things could go wrong. This is one of her favorite songs of all time, and I don't want to screw it up," she stated, continuing to pace back and forth.
"Hey, relax," Jesse said, walking over to Beca and then putting a hand on her shoulder. "You know this song like the back of your hand. You know it so well that you can play it in your sleep. You're not going to mess this up," he told her in a reassuring voice.
Beca nodded and then took a deep breath before she spoke again. "Alright, let's do this. Did Benji get her to the auditorium?"
Jesse took his phone out of his pocket and saw a text from Benji. "Yeah, he actually just texted me to tell me that she's there."
"Okay, let's go then," Beca said, grabbing her guitar and walking with Jesse to the back door of the auditorium. The two walked out onto the stage to see Benji talking to Chloe. "Hey, babe," the brunette called out, smiling and waving at the the redhead. "This is that surprise I told you about. It's a special performance by Trio just for you," she said as Benji and Jesse got to their instruments.
"Ooh, really?" Chloe asked, biting her lip as a smile spread across her face. "I can't wait to see what it is, then." After she finished speaking, the redhead sat down in one of the front row seats in the auditorium and waited for the performance to begin.
"Sit back, relax, and enjoy the show," Beca said, smiling at her girlfriend one more time before plugging her guitar into the amp. She took a deep breath before turning and nodding her head at Jesse and Benji, signaling for them to start.
"I Saw Her Standing There"- The Beatles
"Well, she was just seventeen.
You know what I mean.
And the way she looked was way beyond compare.
So how could I dance with another?
When I saw her standing there."
Chloe's smile grew even wider when she recognized the song. The redhead couldn't help but tap her foot on the floor and nod her head along with the rhythm of the song, her eyes on Beca the whole time.
"Well, she looked at me
And I could see
That before too long,
I'd fall in love with her.
She wouldn't dance with another,
Oh, when I saw her standing there."
Beca smiled and continued to rock out as she sang the song. Her nerves were long gone, and she found that she was now able to let loose and have fun as she performed.
"Well, my heart went boom
When I crossed that room,
And I held her hand in mine
Oh, we danced through the night
And held each other tight.
And before too long,
I fell in love with her.
Now I'll never dance with another,
Oh, when I saw her standing there.
Well, my heart went boom
When I crossed that room,
And I held her hand in mine
Oh, we danced through the night
And held each other tight.
And before too long,
I fell in love with her.
Now I'll never dance with another,
Oh, when I saw her standing there.
Oh, since I saw her standing there.
Yeah, well since I saw her standing there."
When the song was over, Beca put her guitar down and then went backstage to grab the bouquet of roses that she had bought for Chloe. She then went back out onto the stage, a big smile on her face as she walked towards her girlfriend, who was walking towards her at the same time. "I bet by now you've figured out why I brought you here," Beca said when they met at the middle of the stage. "I won't dance with another at the prom, because when I see you standing there, I fall in love," she stated, making Chloe's face turn as red as her hair. "Chloe Beale, will you go to prom with me?"
The redhead put her hand over her mouth, tears of joy welling up in her eyes. "Of course I'll go to prom with you, Becs. Thank you so much," Chloe said, throwing her arms around the brunette and bringing her into a hug.
Beca smiled and then picked Chloe up, spinning her around a couple times. "Thank you," she said, smiling before leaning in to kiss Chloe's cheek. "There's no one I'd rather go with."
"The same goes from me to you, Becs," Chloe replied. The redhead then leaned in and pressed a sweet kiss to the brunette's lips. "I love you," she whispered softly once their lips parted.
Those three words made Beca's heart stop for a split second. "W-what?" She asked in a high-pitched voice. "Y-you love m-me?" A small smiled started to appear on the young girl's lips.
"I know we haven't been together for very long, but I do. I love you, Becs," Chloe said, looking down so the brunette didn't see how hard she was blushing.
Beca's smile grew even wider, and she lifted Chloe's chin up before leaning in to give the girl a sweet kiss on the lips. "I love you too, Chlo," she whispered.
"Good. I'm glad we're on the same page," Chloe mumbled back, chuckling and then deepening the kiss a little.
Jesse then cleared his throat. "Uh, hello," he said, smiling and chuckling a little. "We're still here."
"Oh, sorry," Beca said, pulling away from the kiss. "Can we have a minute, you guys?" She asked Benji and Jesse.
Benji nodded his head. "Yeah, of course. You guys were already having a minute just now, but it's whatever," he said with a chuckle before he and Jesse walked off the stage, leaving the two girls alone.
Beca then turned back to Chloe, both a smile and a blush on her face. "So, as your official prom date, I would like you to know that we can do whatever you want on our day date," she said. "Also, you're going to love the song I wrote for that night," the brunette added.
"You wrote a song for me?" Chloe asked, biting down on her lip as she tried to keep herself from blushing even harder than she already was.
"Yeah, that's the one I've been working on for awhile," Beca said, smiling and holding Chloe by her hips. "I want to get it just right before I sing for you."
"And I'm sure you will, babe," Chloe said, smiling back at her girlfriend. The redhead wrapped her arms around the brunette's neck and then leaned their foreheads together. "You writing a song for me means a lot, Becs."
"Well, I write a lot of songs about you. It's actually pretty easy to write about you because you inspire me so much," Beca said with a smile before leaning in and kissing Chloe's lips gently. "So, you love me?"
Chloe nodded her head. "Yeah, I do. Did you think I was lying to you?" She asked with a giggle.
"No, I just wanted to hear you say it again, that's all," Beca said, gently tucking a few stray pieces of Chloe's hair back behind her ear. "If that's alright with you."
"Of course that's alright with me," Chloe said, giggling a little more. She then started gazing into Beca's eyes, her smile growing as she did so. "I really do love you, Beca," she murmured softly.
"I really love you too," Beca said before sitting down on the piano bench and pulling Chloe onto her lap. She pressed a couple kisses to the girl's upper arm and shoulder before looking up into her eyes. "You coming to the concert tomorrow?" She asked.
"You bet I am," Chloe replied, smiling back at her girlfriend. "I'd be crazy if I missed the show tomorrow," she added.
Beca then took a deep breath. "My dad's coming to the show with my mom," she said, biting her lip nervously.
"Wait, really? That's awesome, Becs!" Chloe said in an enthusiastic voice. "I knew he'd come around sooner or later. I just knew it."
"It's all thanks to you, you know?" Beca said, smiling up at her girlfriend. "Whatever you said to him must've worked, because now he's going to give my dreams a chance. I can't tell you how much I appreciate you doing that for me, especially since you didn't have to."
Chloe shook her head. "You don't need to thank me, Becs. I was just doing the right thing. I knew that you really wanted him to come to one of your shows, so I decided that I would do whatever I could to make that happen."
"Still, you did it even though you didn't have to, and I'm very grateful for that," Beca said, leaning up to kiss Chloe on the lips. "You're an amazing girlfriend."
"So are you, Becs," Chloe said, smiling as they pulled away from the kiss. "You make me so, so happy. I've never been happier."
"Good, because I feel the exact same way," Beca replied before leaning up to kiss Chloe again.
The following night, Beca was in her bathroom getting ready for the concert. She was wearing a black blazer and a white tank top along with black jeans and dark brown combat boots. She looked in her mirror as she applied her mascara, taking a few deep breaths as she did so. Her father was coming to the show tonight, and Beca knew she had to give the best performance of her life in order to convince her father that LA was where she belonged and that she could make her dream a reality.
She felt her phone buzz in her pocket and then pulled it out to see that Jesse wanted to FaceTime her. She pressed answer and then set her phone on the sink so it was leaning back against the mirror. "Hey buddy, what's up?"
"Not much, Becaw," Jesse replied, smirking when Beca rolled her eyes at him. 'Becaw' was a new nickname that he had come up with recently and the brunette absolutely hated it, which was why he used it whenever he could.
"Dude, I'm really nervous. I still can't believe that my dad is actually coming to the show tonight," Beca said, taking another deep breath before finishing her mascara. "What if he hates it and doesn't let me go to LA?"
"Don't be silly, Becaw. He's going to let you go to LA. I guarantee that he'll be blown away by your performance tonight," Jesse said in an encouraging voice.
"I have to perform as good as Bono from U2 if I'm going convince my father to let me go to LA. It's not going to be an easy task," Beca said as she put her makeup away. She then walked out of the bathroom, grabbing her two guitar cases and her keyboard case before going back to get her phone.
"Sure, it's not going to be an easy task, but you'll be able to do it. I believe in you, Becaw. Benji believes in you, Chloe believes in you, even Aubrey believes in you," Jesse said with a little chuckle. "We all believe in you, Beca. You just have to believe in yourself."
"You're right," Beca said with a sigh as she opened the trunk of her car and put her instruments inside. "By the way, how are things with Aubrey? You never really talk about it."
"Things are good. Great, actually," Jesse replied with a smile. "She's an amazing girl, and I'm really glad that I finally worked up the courage to ask her out."
"Yeah, I'm glad you did too. You've been eye-screwing her since sophomore year so it was about time you took her out on a date," Beca said with a chuckle, making Jesse laugh as well. "I'll see you in about twenty minutes, okay?"
"Alright, I'll see you then," Jesse said before they ended the FaceTime call.
Once everything was loaded up in the trunk, Beca closed it and got in the driver's seat. She sat there for a few moments, taking deep breaths and looking into the rearview mirror. "You've got this, Beca. You can do this. You just have to believe in yourself," she thought aloud. The girl then pulled out of her driveway and headed down to the venue where the concert was being held. She gripped the steering wheel tightly as she drove even though she knew it wouldn't helping her nerves. As she drove, the brunette thought about what songs they should play. They had to play songs that her father would like.
When Beca arrived at the venue, she parked her car and then got her instruments from the truck before going inside via the backstage door. Benji and Jesse were already there, and the two boys waved to the brunette when they saw her walking in. "Hey, Beca," Benji said with a smile. "Are you ready for tonight?"
"As ready as I can be," Beca said with a nervous chuckle. "Listen, you two. Since my father is coming, we have to play a different set. We have to play songs that we know he'll enjoy. This means we probably can't perform 'Locked Out of Heaven,' because I don't think he'd want to hear his daughter singing a song about sex."
Both Jesse and Benji nodded their heads in agreement. "Yeah, I don't think that would go over too well," Jesse said, chuckling a little. "So, do you have any ideas for what we should play instead?" He asked.
"Well, we have plenty of songs that aren't about sexual relations, so why don't we just pick them as we go?" Benji suggested with a shrug of the shoulders. "That's what we normally do, anyways."
Jesse thought about Benji's words for a few moments and then nodded his head. "Yeah, I guess so. That sounds good to me. What about you, Beca?"
Beca nodded her head as well. "That sounds good to me too. We should probably pick a song to start out with, though, just so we're not standing up there awkwardly as we try to figure out what to play," the brunette said.
"Hey, I have an idea," Benji interjected. "Why don't we start off with 'The Sound?'" He suggested.
"That should be the perfect song to start out with. Good thinking, Benji," Jesse said, patting his friend's shoulder. "Alright then, let's go out there and do our sound check. The doors open in twenty-five minutes."
"Alright, let's go," Beca said, following Jesse and Benji out onto the stage. She set up her instruments and made sure they were all plugged into amps before doing her mic check. Then, a sound check for each of their instruments. Once those things were done, they played a couple songs to warm up and then went backstage to wait.
Chicago, Chloe, Aubrey, Emily, and Stacie were all waiting in line to get in. They had decided to go support Beca since it was the first show that her father was going to. Every single one of them had cancelled any previous plans they had to come to the show.
Beca, Jesse, and Benji were sitting backstage and listening to the chatter of people waiting in line. The noise got louder when the doors were finally opened and the venue began to fill up. "It's pretty loud out there. There must be a lot of people," Jesse commented.
"Good. That means it'll probably be harder to spot my dad," Beca said, biting her lip nervously.
"Unless he's in the front row," Benji pointed out with a chuckle. "Don't worry, Beca. He's going to enjoy the show."
"How do you know that? How do you know that he's not going to walk out during the middle of the concert because he hates it so much?" Beca asked.
"You just gotta have some faith," Jesse said. "Just have fun tonight and try not to think about it. The worst thing you can do is worry."
Beca then looked down at the floor. "You're right," she said after a few moments of silence. "It's just hard not to think about it, you know? I really want him to enjoy the show."
"Then just do what you always do, you're a great performer Beca." Jesse said smiling and patting his friend on the back.
Soon, it was almost time for the show to start. Jacob and Cala were standing in the fifth row as they waited to their daughter's band to come out. "Wow, I had no idea her band had so many fans," Jacob said as he looked around.
"Yeah, they're pretty big. One of the most popular bands in Seattle, actually," Cala told her husband.
"That's pretty cool," Jacob said, nodding his head. He looked around for another minute before turning to his wife. "Cala, do you really believe that Beca can make it?"
Cala looked back at Jacob. "Of course I think she can make it. She's the most talented person I know and will probably ever know. If anyone can make it in LA, it's our daughter," she said in a genuine voice.
The man took a deep breath and then nodded before turning to face the stage as the crowd got louder. Beca, Jesse, and Benji made their way onto the stage and waved at the crowd. "How are you guys doing tonight?" Beca asked through the microphone, getting a loud response. "Awesome! We're going to mix things up a little bit by performing some songs that we haven't done in awhile. Also, my dad is in the audience tonight, so let's give him a warm welcome." The brunette paused so the crowd could give her father a round of applause. Once they were done, she continued. "This song is called 'The Sound.'" Beca then stepped away from the microphone and turned on her keyboard, waiting for Jesse to start playing his part on the drums before she started playing her own part. A few moments later, Benji came in with his bass guitar and the song began.
"The Sound"- The 1975
"Well I know when you're around cause I know the sound,
I know the sound of your heart.
Well I know when you're around cause I know the sound,
I know the sound of your heart.
Well I know when you're around cause I know the sound,
I know the sound of your heart.
Well I know when you're around cause I know the sound,
I know the sound of your heart."
Beca's eyes scanned the crowd and she smiled once she saw her friends. She then continued scanning the crowd until she saw her father. The brunette's smile grew and she waved at him before going into the first verse of the song.
"I can't believe I forgot your name.
Oh baby, won't you come again?
She said 'I've got a problem with your shoes
And your tunes but I might move in.
And I thought that you were straight, now I'm wondering.'
You're so conceited, I said 'I love you.'
What does it matter if I lie to you?
I don't regret it, but I'm glad that we're through,
So don't you tell me that you 'just don't get it'
Cause I know you do."
A small smile appeared on Jacob's face as he watched his daughter. She definitely knows how to perform for a crowd, he thought to himself. couldn't keep the smile off of his face as he continued to listen to Beca sing.
"Well I know when you're around cause I know the sound,
I know the sound of your heart.
Well I know when you're around cause I know the sound,
I know the sound of your heart.
It's not about reciprocation, it's just all about me:
A sycophantic, prophetic, Socratic junkie wannabe.
There's so much skin to see,
A simple Epicurean philosophy.
And you say I'm such a cliche.
I can't see the difference in it, either way.
And we left things to protect my mental health,
But you call me when you're bored and you're playing with yourself.
You're so conceited, I said 'I love you.'
What does it matter if I lie to you?
I don't regret it, but I'm glad that we're through,
So don't you tell me that you 'just don't get it'
Cause I know you do."
As she finished the second verse, Beca looked back into the crowd and saw that her father had a huge smile on his face. This made a big smile appear on the brunette's face as well and gave her even more energy for her performance.
"Well I know when you're around cause I know the sound,
I know the sound of your heart.
Well I know when you're around cause I know the sound,
I know the sound of your heart.
Well I know when you're around cause I know the sound,
I know the sound of your heart.
Well I know when you're around cause I know the sound,
I know the sound of your heart."
Once the song was over, the crowd cheered really loudly. Beca couldn't help but smile when she saw the look of pride on her father's face. She waved his way before winking at Chloe, who was standing in the front row. The brunette smirked a little when the redhead winked back at her before turning to Jesse and Benji. "What song should we do next?" She asked, putting her hand over the microphone so that it didn't pick up what she was saying.
"What about 'When I Come Around?'" Jesse suggested. "We haven't played that one in a long time."
Beca got a nod from Benji and then she turned back to the crowd. "This next one is an oldie, but it's definitely a goodie. This is actually one of the first songs I wrote. Here's 'When I Come Around!'" She yelled before Jesse tapped his drumsticks together.
"When I Come Around"- Green Day
"I heard you crying loud all the way across town
Cause you've been searching for that someone.
And it's me out on the prowl
As you sit around feeling sorry for yourself.
Well, don't feel lonely now
And dry your whining eyes
I'm just roaming for the moment,
Sleazin' in my backyard, so don't get so uptight.
You've been thinking about ditching me.
No time to search the world around
Cause you know where I'll be found
When I come around."
The crowd instantly cheered when they recognized the song and some people began clapping their hands to the beat. This made Beca smile as she went into the second verse.
"Well I heard it all before, so don't knock down my door.
I'm a loser and a user, so I don't need no accuser.
To try and slag me down because I know you're right
So go do what you like, make sure you do it wise.
You may find out that your self-doubt means nothing was ever there.
You can't go forcing something if it's just not right.
No time to search the world around,
Cause you know where I'll be found
When I come around.
No time to search the world around,
Cause you know where I'll be found
When I come around.
When I come around,
When I come around,
When I come around."
The crowd roared when the song was over. The cheering was so loud that Beca almost had to cover her ears. "Wow! They loved that one," Beca said to Benji and Jesse with a chuckle.
About an hour and a half later, the band had come to their final song, but Beca had a few words to say before they began playing. "This last song is one that I recently wrote with Jesse. It's a love song to his girlfriend, Aubrey, who is in the building tonight. Jesse, would you like to say a few words to your girl before we start?"
Jesse nodded and then stood up. He walked to the front of the stage, taking his microphone with him. "I'm gonna keep this short and sweet because I know that you guys want to hear this last song," he started, getting a chuckle from the audience. He then made eye contact with Aubrey before speaking again. "Aubrey, this next song is for you. I'm not the best at putting my thoughts into words, which is why I had Beca help me with it, but I hope you like it. Thanks for being the best girlfriend ever," he said with a smile.
"Well said, Jesse," Beca said before slinging her acoustic guitar over her shoulders. "This duet is called 'Seeing Blind,' I hope you all enjoy. You've been a great crowd tonight."
"Seeing Blind"- Niall Horan and Maren Morris
Jesse:
"I have seen, seen it all in paper dreams,
Watched it unfold on the screen,
But I never understood.
I have heard, have heard you speak a million words.
Now you're talking to me first,
Never thought you would."
Jesse & Beca:
"Oh, my, my, you just took me by surprise,
And I can't believe my eyes.
Oh, I must be seeing blind.
Oh no, now you're too good to be all mine.
Now I'm looking in your eyes.
Oh, I must be seeing blind."
By the time the first chorus was over, a good amount of people in the crowd were holding their phones up with the flashlight on and waving them back and forth. Beca looked over at Jesse and smiled at her friend before singing her verse of the song.
Beca:
"When I was young, my heart was always on the run.
But you make loving fun,
I never knew it could be.
I see you from a different point of view.
I feel it's too good to be true.
I found my missing piece."
Jesse & Beca:
"Oh, my, my, you just took me by surprise,
And I can't believe my eyes.
Oh, I must be seeing blind.
Oh no, now you're too good to be all mine.
Now I'm looking in your eyes.
Oh, I must be seeing blind.
Oh, oh."
Aubrey smiled up at her boyfriend as he sang with Beca, swaying to the song and holding up her phone to videotape the entire thing. She could feel her heart skip a beat when Jesse winked at her before the two went into the last chorus.
Jesse & Beca:
Oh, my, my, when I look into your eyes,
It's a sight I can't describe.
Oh I must be seeing blind.
Oh, my, my, you just took me by surprise,
And I can't believe my eyes.
Oh, I must be seeing blind.
Oh no, now you're too good to be all mine.
Now I'm looking in your eyes.
Oh, I must be seeing blind.
Oh, I must be seeing blind."
As the final song finished, the crowd went wild and the three people onstage smiled and waved goodbye before heading off of the stage. "Guys, we killed it out there!" Jesse said enthusiastically once they were backstage, giving high-fives to both Beca and Benji. "That was awesome!"
"Yeah, it was awesome!" Beca said, smiling and hugging her fellow band members. "My dad, he stood up and cheered."
"See? What did we tell you? We knew he was going to love it," Benji said with a smile.
Then, they heard the backstage door open and multiple people walk inside. "Beca!" Chloe called out as she ran up to her girlfriend, giving her a big hug. "The show was amazing! Your dad was cheering the whole time!"
"Yeah, I saw," Beca said with a smile as she hugged Chloe back. "I can't believe that he actually enjoyed the performance."
"I can believe it. The performance was amazing, babe," Chloe said before leaning in and giving Beca a sweet kiss on the lips.
After she had packed up all her instruments and bid farewell to their friends, Beca gave Chloe a ride home. When she pulled into the redhead's driveway, the brunette took a deep breath. She spoke up once they had gotten out of the car and went up the stairs to Chloe's porch. "Do you think I changed his mind?" She asked.
Chloe paused for a moment. "Well, if I were him, my mind would have definitely been changed by your performance," she started. "But the only way to know if you changed his mind is to ask him."
The brunette girl nodded and then took another deep breath. "How did you like the new song?" She asked. "I know I wrote it with Jesse for Aubrey, but I was thinking about you the entire time we were writing it."
These words made Chloe smile and blush a little. "I loved the new song, Becs. It was really sweet of you to help Jesse write a song for Aubrey," she said.
"I've written songs with Benji for Emily before, but this was the first time Jesse asked me to write a song with him," Beca said with a chuckle. She then looked at her front door, knowing her father was waiting for her inside the house. "I'll tell you how it goes in the morning, okay?"
Chloe nodded her head. "Okay, I'll talk to you tomorrow morning," she said, leaning in and giving Beca a sweet goodnight kiss. "I love you, babe."
"I love you too, Chlo," Beca said, giving Chloe one last peck on the lips before she headed over to her own house. "Mom, Dad! I'm home!" She called out once she was inside.
"We're in the kitchen, sweetie!" Cala called out.
Beca took off her shoes and set down her stuff before going into the kitchen. "Hey," she said, smiling at her parents. "So, did you guys enjoy the show?" She asked, biting her lip nervously.
Cala smiled and then looked over at Jacob, who cleared his throat before talking. "Beca, I'm so sorry that I avoided going to your shows for so long. I realize now that I was more concerned with what I wanted for you than what you wanted," he said, taking a deep breath. "And for that, I apologize."
"It's okay, Dad," Beca said, shrugging her shoulders. "You were just doing what you thought was best for me."
Jacob shook his head. "It's not okay, though. I completely disregarded your feelings, and I shouldn't have. I'm very sorry, Beca. I hope you can forgive me."
"Of course I forgive you, Dad. You've always told me that's it's good to forgive," Beca said, smiling at her father.
"About LA," Jacob said, leaning back against the kitchen counter. "While I'm still scared to let you go there on your own, I think we can come to an agreement."
"Really?" Beca asked, her eyes lighting up with excitement. "What would the terms of this agreement be?"
"Your mother and I were talking, and we came up with a few conditions that we think are pretty reasonable," Jacob said, smiling at his daughter. "Until you can make a stable living on your own, you're going to live with your cousin Zachary. He's got a nice apartment in Beverly Hills and he's willing to let you live with him as long as you pay rent."
Beca nodded to signal that she was listening. "Alright, that seems fair. What else?" She asked.
It was now Cala's turn to speak. "We aren't going to pay for your rent, so you're going to have to get a job while you're living with Zachary. We also want you to take a few college classes while you're there. You can take music classes if you want to. We want you get at least some college can work on your music in your free time, but you have to put school and work first."
Beca nodded her head again. "Don't worry, I will," she said. "Is there anything else?"
"Once you go there, it's going to be awhile before you're able to come and visit us," Jacob said, scratching the back of his neck. "We'll come and visit when we can, but flights to LA are pretty pricey. So, to make sure we get to talk to you as much as possible, we want to call or FaceTime you at least twice a week. Other than that, we don't really have any other conditions."
Beca then hugged both of her parents. "Thank you so much," she said, the smile on her face growing impossibly wider. "You letting me go to LA means so much to me. I promise I won't let you down."
"We know you won't, darling," Jacob said, a smile on his face as his daughter wrapped him and Cala up in a bear hug.
YAY! Beca is going to LA! Jacob came through and is now in support of his daughters dream.
Also, Chloe and Beca are going to prom together, which is going to be super fun! What did you think about Beca's promposal?
Until Next Time!
