Chapter 2: After the retreat
The Bella's bounded into their house, having just returned from the retreat where they had rediscovered their sound. They were all exhausted, both emotionally and physically.
Mainly physically.
Like, seriously, Amy just fell asleep on the steps.
"Amy, legit, you need to move, like now," Beca mutters, nudging her friend, receiving a groan from the Australia. Rolling her eyes, the brunette grabs Amy's leg, trying to pull her out of the way so she can go up to her room, but her efforts are in vain.
She feels a gentle hand press into the small of her back and a shiver goes up through her spine.
"Here, let me try," Chloe whispers and leans down, whispering something in Amy's ear.
Well, whatever Chloe said, it certainly worked, because Amy was up and out the door so fast, Beca didn't even have time to blink.
"Do I even want to know?" Beca laughs and Chloe shakes her head, gently grabbing her friend's hand.
"C'mon, I'm tired and I wanna cuddle," Chloe murmurs cutely, and Beca feels the heat rise to her cheek.
The young brunette doesn't object when the redhead brings her to her room, opening the door for Beca.
The two don't bother to change as they lie on the bed, curling up to each other automatically. Chloe wraps her arms around Beca, stroking the younger girl's hair gently. Beca hums in appreciation.
"Hey, Chlo?"
"Yes, Beca?" Chloe softly replies, twirling a strand of Beca's hair.
"I've been thinking about what you said at the retreat…y'know…about that regret?"
Chloe's bright blue eyes lit up in excitement, a grin spreading across her lips.
"I'm all ears, Becs."
