This wasn't the chapter I told you guys about on Tumblr... I don't know if I'm gonna post that one, it ended up weird. This was a quick write up to give you something since I told you I had something started~ Also this is basically just because I wanted to write sleepy cuteness. Sorry it's not the best!

dating for 6 months


The apartment was dark when Beca slipped through the door, sighing when she noticed only the kitchen light was on. She had been playing a gig at The Hole that Chloe had missed. It was a Thursday night, Beca only had one class at two on Fridays so she didn't have a problem with staying out until three in the morning playing at the little bar. Her girlfriend, however, had a test bright and early Friday morning. Chloe was stressing about it all, having studied her ass off to make sure she got a high mark on this test since this was her worst class. Music History was killing her, mostly because of all the dates. Chloe could tell you who wrote what even if they didn't get the credit but the dates and times of things threw her off. That and the class was so boring that she didn't always end up going or she'd forget the homework. This test was big for the redhead so Beca had basically forced her to stay home from the gig to get one last night of studying in.

She had hoped to get in before too late but there was a large crowd and they ended up playing well past midnight, The Hole staying open until two on most nights. Quietly slipping off her coat, she kicked her shoes off to the side and padded to the kitchen. One water bottle and a plate of re-heated pizza later and she was plopped in front of the TV to eat before bed.

Twenty minutes later, she was nodding off on the couch with an empty plate on the coffee table in front of her. There was a shifting behind her and just as she started to turn her head to see what it was, she had her arms full of Chloe.

"Well hello there, Red." The grin that had plastered itself onto her face as soon as she felt her girlfriend's warmth faltered a little when she caught how tired she really looked. All week Chloe had been studying her ass off, her history test was not the only one she had that day. Even in the dim light of the TV, Beca could see the circles under Chloe's eyes and felt the way her hand just gently held onto her shirt, not clutching it to prevent any escape like usual. Her girlfriend was working her ass off this semester but it was taking it's toll on the bubbly redhead. Placing a soft kiss to the top of her head, her smile returned and softened when Chloe let out a content little sigh and buried even more into her arms.

"You smell like boy." Nuzzling in more, Chloe gave her a little kiss to her chest. "Also, hello to you too, Rockstar."

Rolling her eyes at the muffled response, Beca just nodded and set her chin on top of Chloe's head, her hands moving to rub her back. "I put my body spray on today, that's why." When she hit a particularly tense spot, Beca felt Chloe squirm a bit before relaxing as she focused her motions. "Sorry I didn't get here till now. We had to drop shit off at the apartment before I could come over here, the boys didn't want to leave the equipment."

"It's okay, you're here now." There was obviously something on Chloe's mind, her voice a lot clearer in that moment than it was a second ago. Tilting her head down, Beca gave the top of her head another kiss as encouragement. "I know your dad is paying for the apartment but it's become mostly the boys place, right? They all moved in when they realized the whole band would be able to live there."

"Yea, that's right." Beca was slightly confused but figured this would end up in a good point.

"Well why don't we make it a little more permanent. Like actually make it a thing."

At this point, Beca was grinning wide at what Chloe was asking, even if her girlfriend was asking her in the most awkward way. "Go on."

Chloe gave a bit of a groan, squirming even closer as Beca caught sight of her flushing cheeks. "Beca." It was a little pleading and she almost gave in, almost. "Will you just move in with me?"

Her grin grew even more, eyes going a little misty as she tilted Chloe's head up to catch her gaze. "Of course I'll move in with you, Red. I was systematically moving my shit in anyway, just biding my time until you finally asked me." At the look she got, Beca just laughed and gave her girlfriend a kiss. "I've been dropping huge not so subtle hints that I wanted to just move in for a while, baby, I just didn't want to push it. You needed to ask me when you were ready."

At that, Beca was smacked lightly on the shoulder and then attacked with kisses, Chloe laughing a little at the situation. "You're telling me I could have just told you to move in with me a month ago when you first took over my spare dresser?" Beca simply nodded, smirk firmly in place. "Wow, I was oblivious wasn't I?"

"A little bit." Chloe gave a little yawn, tucking her head down on Beca's shoulder now that she had the answer to the question that had been predominantly on her mind. Shifting her a little bit in her arms, Beca flipped off the TV and slid off the couch, Chloe kept safely in her grasp. The redhead gave a happy little squeak, hands clutching her shirt. "Let's go to bed, Chloe, get some sleep and then you can go rock your tests. This weekend we can start moving my shit in, though most of it is already here."

"Good plan." The answer was soft, breathed against her skin as she easily moved into the bedroom and set Chloe down on the bed.

Changing into clothes that didn't smell like a bar, Beca slid into bed and immediately had Chloe curling up into her arms. "I love you, Red."

Smiling sleepily, Chloe was finally able to fall asleep comfortably with a whispered, "I love you too, Beca"
