Beca Mitchell is a lot of things. She's determined, sarcastic, goal oriented. She's definitely not scared of thunderstorms. No, definitely not.
Beca woke up with a jolt, sitting right up in bed. The sky rumbled and lit up like a Christmas tree. Rain was pouring harder than she's seen in a long time. The wind so strong it was shaking the glass on her windows.
Beca immediately checked her weather app on her phone. Storms all night long.
"Fuck," she sighed.
The lights flickered. "Oh shit!" Beca opened her nightstand drawer to pull out a flashlight. Everything went dark except for a huge flash of lightning followed by a loud clap of thunder.
Beca grabbed her phone and quickly typed out message to Chloe.
Um, hey Chlo. Are you awake?
She tapped her fingers on her knee frantically waiting for a response. Unfortunately none came. Beca sighed and grabbed her flashlight. She walked down the hall to Chloe's room. The door was slightly cracked. Beca didn't want to shine the flashlight in the older girl's eyes so she pointed it down.
Beca opened Chloe's door slightly more peering in to see if she was awake. She could hear the soft sounds of sleep. At that moment, a flash of lightning struck which caused Beca to see Chloe curled up asleep. To Beca, Chloe looked absolutely breathtaking even if she could only see her for a brief moment as the lightning lit up the room.
Beca walked into the room quietly and stepped towards Chloe's bed. She leaned down and tapped the redhead on the shoulder.
"Chlo?" Beca said in a louder than normal whisper.
"Hmmm?" Chloe responded still pretty much asleep.
A loud boom of thunder made the windows shake. This caused the older girl to stir a bit. She opened her eyes slightly taking in Beca's appearance.
"Becs? What's going on?" Chloe asked in a concerned tone while staring at Beca.
"Um, so yeah. The storm is keeping me awake I was just seeing if you were too so maybe we could watch a show on my laptop," Beca answered innocently. She was trying her best to keep her voice steady to pretend she wasn't in Chloe's room for any other reason.
Chloe looked at her phone to check the time.
"It's two in the morning, Beca. Why would I be awake. Shouldn't you be sleeping?" Chloe said in her super sexy sleepy voice that Beca loved to hear.
Another bolt of lightning struck followed by the loudest clap of thunder Beca had ever experienced. She jumped nearly a few feet.
Chloe sat up grinning. "Don't tell me that bad ass Beca "effin" Mitchell is afraid of storms. She chuckled
Beca was thankful that the power was out so Chloe couldn't see her blush. Chloe scooted over and patted the spot right next to her.
"Climb in you poor baby" she teased.
Beca rolled her eyes and got in the bed next to Chloe. They both turned to lay on their sides facing each other. Lightning struck again allowing Beca to take in how beautiful Chloe is.
"Still scared?" Chloe whispered.
"No, I always feel safe with you" she replied back.
