Aubrey immediately collapsed to the floor crying. How could this have happened? Anya, what am I goanna do?"

Anya just sighed and pulled Aubrey's head into her shoulder, "I can't tell you what to do for the ultimate choice, only you can make that decision, but I think no matter what Chloe deserves to know."

Aubrey just nodded, of course Chloe deserved to know. "I just don't know when to tell her. I mean, do I wait and tell her in person? Or do I tell her now?"

"I honestly think you should tell her now. I think the sooner she knows the better. Then you have the most time possible to talk about what you're goanna do."

"Go grab my phone from my purse."

Anya obeyed. When Aubrey had her phone, she sent the red head a quick text asking when she would be free the next week. The Posens would be heading back to Augusta in three days and Chloe lived just outside of Atlanta, a mere two-hour drive. Aubrey knew that her father would not like her taking an entire day to see her friend from that distraction of a singing group instead of spending time with him at the shooting range, cigar bar, or country club.

Chloe quickly responded back saying that for her, she was free any day. After a few texts back and forth, the couple decided that on Tuesday, they would meet in Athens for lunch.

After everything was sorted out between Aubrey and Chloe, the blonde pulled her cousin in for a hug and said, "Thank you."

When Tuesday came around, Aubrey was definitely nervous, it had been difficult to persuade her father to let her have even a couple of hours to visit Chloe, but eventually he gave in when she said that trip wouldn't be over night and they could get dinner at the club that evening.

The drive was painstakingly long, and every second was spent imagining how Chloe would react to Aubrey's news. In some scenarios, the red head walked out and never saw her again. In a couple, Chloe was unhappy with the timing, but happy. And in a few, she would berate the blonde and tell her that it was her fault.

Aubrey was pulled from her thoughts when she arrived at the diner the couple had agreed to meet at and already saw her bubbly girlfriend at the entrance, waving and running over to Aubrey. When the ginger reached the blonde, she nearly tackled her with the force of her hug and crashed their lips roughly together. Aubrey quickly broke the kiss, "Ouch, Chloe I think my lip is bleeding!"

The redhead pulled her lips back, but kept her hands on Aubrey's lower back and flashed a sheepish smile. "Sorry babe. I just really missed you."

"Well let's go inside and talk over a burger."

When the girls entered the dinner, they were seated at a booth right away. "Bree, why can't we sit at the counter? We're at a diner, it's what you're supposed to do." The redhead whined quietly.

Aubrey looked around to make sure no one was listening, before leaning across the table. "I wanted more privacy. I have to tell you something and I don't want a bunch of strangers to overhear."

"Ok Bree, you're really starting to scare me. Did you cheat on me over break or something?"

Aubrey's eyes started to sting with tears, the moment she was dreading was finally here. Chloe noticed that Aubrey was uneasy and took her hand rubbing soothing circles on the back of her hand. The action significantly calmed the blonde down. She took one final deep breath before squeaking out, "I'm pregnant."

Chloe furrowed her brow and leaned closer to Aubrey, "Come again? You were so quiet, I don't think I heard you correctly."

"I said I'm pregnant, Chloe."

Chloe's eyes widened in shock, "How's that possible? You told me at the last Bella's practice before finals that you were going on the pill to help make your periods less painful."

Aubrey shrugged her shoulders, "I don't know Chloe, I just know the test was positive and you're the only person I've ever slept with who has a penis so it has to be yours."

As the initial shock wore away and the realization hit the red head that she had gotten the blonde pregnant, tears began to slowly trickle down her face. Aubrey wasn't sure if Chloe was crying out of fear or joy. "Chloe, you're making me nervous."

The ginger whipped her tears away and looked at Aubrey with a huge grin on her face. "Don't worry, these are happy tears. Sure the timing isn't ideal, but I really want kids. Especially with you. I'm just really excited that's all." It was after this that a realization came to Chloe, "I mean, if you're keeping it. I totally support whatever decision you make."

"Honestly, I don't think I could go through with an abortion. If anything I would probably choose adoption. But even that would feel weird, knowing that we have a kid out there and could potentially hate us for giving them up."

Chloe just nodded, before taking Aubrey's hand under the table again. "I agree. Just take the rest of break to think about it and when we get back to Barden we'll go to the doctor and get everything checked and talk about our options together."

Aubrey looked at Chloe sheepishly, "Thanks for not flipping out on me."

Chloe gave Aubrey a confused look, "Why would I flip out on you?"

"I'm pregnant. If I choose to keep it, it's going to screw up both of our lives."

Chloe gave Aubrey a stern look in the eye. "This is just as much my fault as it is yours. I should have put a condom on even though you were on the pill. If you keep the baby it's going to throw both of our lives off a bit, sure, but we'll figure it out together."

Aubrey couldn't hope to hold back the smile on her face. She couldn't begin to express how grateful she was to have Chloe as her girlfriend in a situation like this. The couple sat in a content silence until a waitress came over and took their order. Aubrey ordered a burger and fries while Chloe ordered a double bacon burger, fries, and a shake. The blonde raised an eyebrow at the ginger, "How can you eat like that and have a supermodel figure?"

Chloe simply shrugged, "I have a naturally fast metabolism, and I workout every day."

When their food arrived the couple ate their food and talked about their breaks and what they thought Bellas rehearsals would bring. Eventually both girls finished their meals, Aubrey was still repulsed and slightly impressed at how much food the ginger had eaten. When the check came, Aubrey tried to grab it to see what she owed, but Chloe slapped her hand away. "It's OK Bree, lunch is on me."

"Chlo, you don't have to do that," the blonde responded.

"I know I don't have to, I want to buy my girlfriend lunch."

Again, Aubrey couldn't help the large grin that graced her face. The blonde wasn't used to having nice things done for her unless it was out of obligation or to reciprocate for something nice she had done for that person. The redhead paid their bill and the couple made their way across the parking lot hand-in-hand to Aubrey's car. When they reached the blonde's car, Chloe let go of Aubrey's hand before grabbing her hips and pulling her in for a kiss that was slow and passionate. The couple eventually broke apart, knowing that they would eventually have to leave the other eventually. "I love you Aubrey. Don't forget that."

A single tear rolled down Aubrey's cheek, "I love you too Chloe. I'll see you in 11 days when we get back to Barden."

Chloe opened the blonde's door and closed it when she sat down. As Aubrey drove off, Chloe waved excitedly and saw her girlfriend give her a wave of acknowledgement. When the blonde's car was out of sight, the red head turned around to her own car. After sitting down, Chloe took in a deep breath before letting out a heavy sigh as she ran her fingers through her hair. "You screwed up big time Beale."
