Chloe was right, Amy didn't mind her bringing Beca at all. In fact the Australian quite liked having someone new to tell all of her ridiculous stories to and Beca seemed quite amused by them all. Especially the one where she demonstrated mermaid dancing and how she learnt it.
"So why do you call yourself Fat Amy?" Beca asked curious to why anyone would call themselves that.
"It's so twig bitches like you don't do it behind my back." Amy shrugged.
"Alright aca-bitches let's play some volleyball. Stacey and I are a team." Aubrey yelled and Beca looked at Chloe.
"Aca-bitches?"
"Aubrey is also an acapella nerd and thinks she has to make aca a prefix to everything." Chloe explained for her. After picking teams they began playing a little 2 on 2 tournament. The first one to 15 won and moved on in the tournament. Beca and Chloe were on the same team. The other teams included: Aubrey and Stacey, Denise and Lily, Ashley and Cynthia Rose, and Amy and Jessica.
Chloe was quite impressed at how good Beca was. Actually everyone was. Everyone was equally impressed on how well Chloe and Beca worked together. No one would have ever guessed it was their first time playing together. Beca was a great defensive player and setter. She could even spike the ball if the ball was a few feet away from the net. Chloe was an awesome hitter and had an amazing jump serve. They had just won their second game and were relaxing by the pool as another game started.
Some of the girls were drinking but neither Beca nor Chloe had any. Beca had offered to drive if Chloe wanted to drink but Chloe declined. After an unfortunate experience with what Chloe called jiggle juice the summer before sophomore year she opted never to drink again. That little trip landed her in the hospital with alcohol poisoning among a few other things she wasn't quite over yet. Plus she really wanted her and Beca to win even if it was just for fun. She and Aubrey were so competitive with each other. And unfortunately in the past if she wasn't teamed up with Aubrey then Stacey was Aubrey's partner. And no one had beat them yet…so this was about pride. And everyone was having a good time getting to know Beca it seemed.
"You know Beca you should really play on the team." Amy said as she swam over to them. Beca and Chloe were sitting on the side in ground pool with the feet in the water talking to Cynthia Rose and Ashley, both were on the softball team. "You're like really good and you and Red here make an awesome team. Almost as good as me and Kerry Welsh was the summer we played together in Tasmania." She said making Beca laugh.
"Well I would like play to but softball season is at the same time."
"I can't wait to see what you're like in softball." Chloe stated.
"Why?" Ashley asked.
"Beca said she was better at softball than she was at volleyball. If she's this good at volleyball then I can't wait to see how incredible she is at softball." Chloe complimented bumping the brunette's shoulder making her smile.
"Trust us Chloe, Beca is the shit out on the field." Cynthia Rose spoke up. "None of us can get a hit off of her when she pitches and nothing gets past her at short."
"Short stop? Do you play that position because you're so short?" Amy said making herself laugh.
"Ah! Four days I was here before a short joke!" Beca said making Chloe and the others laugh.
"Don't worry short stack I won't let another day go by without one. You can count on me." Amy said.
"Great!" Beca sarcastically drew out. "I'm not even that short guys." Chloe nudged her shoulder.
"Don't worry Becs if she gets out of hand just throw a cotton ball at her."
"You keep those demon balls away from me!" Amy yelled swimming away making everyone laugh.
"Amy has an irrational fear of cotton balls. No one knows why or how she developed it. Every time someone tries to ask she curls up in the fetal position mumbling something about crocodiles and dingos." Chloe explained and Beca didn't think she ever laughed so hard in her life. About five minutes later Aubrey and Stacey came strutting over.
"Okay guys championship game time, Stacey and I versus Chloe and Beca." Aubrey said with her arm around Stacey. "So get your asses up so we can kick it."
"Not this time Brey. Beca and I here have it in the bag." Chloe said standing up then helping Beca.
"Chloe you've never been able to beat us before, nothing's gonna change now." Aubrey trashed talked.
"Yeah well I didn't have Beca before so…you are going to lose." Chloe tried to trash talk?
"Chloe honey, you really need to work on your trash talk." Stacey said linking her arms with Chloe's as the rest of the girls followed behind. They weren't going to miss this. "You gotta be tougher, meaner. Like this." Stacey turned and looked at Beca. "Yo short stuff you gonna be able reach the net or do you need a step-ladder." She mocked turning back to Chloe. "See." Not waiting for Beca's reaction.
Chloe gave her a playful shove. "That wasn't very nice, she can't help she's short." Beca came up beside Chloe.
"It's ok Chlo, I can take a little trash talk. So Stacey you going to be able to jump without your boobs knocking you out?" Beca gave right back and Stacey laughed lifting her breasts proudly.
"Maybe not, but at least you won't have to worry about hurting yourself diving for a ball." Stacey said waiting for someone to take the bait.
"Why?" Thank you Chloe. Stacey thought as Beca rolled her eyes. She could see where this was going.
"Because she's already so close to the ground it'd be impossible. AAAOOO!" She answered making everyone laugh.
"Chloe you're my teammate, you're not supposed to set me up like that." Beca teased and Chloe threw her hands in the air.
"I suck at trash talking! Let's just win, that will shut them up." She said pulling Beca to the court.
Beca smiled. "That will definitely shut them up."
The rest of the girls gathered around the court to watch the game. Cynthia Rose and Amy were even betting on which team would win. Cynthia Rose picked team Staubrey while Amy was all the way with team Bechloe. (Amy came up with the names) Aubrey and Stacey won the coin flip so they would serve first.
Aubrey served over the net to Chloe who bumped it to Beca. Beca set the ball for Chloe at the net. Red hit it hard and Stacey was able to dig but hit it a little too hard and sent it back over the net. Beca bumped it back to Chloe who set the ball for her away from the net. Beca was able to kill it over the net in between Aubrey and Stacey earning them the first point. Chloe jumped in the air excitedly and high-fived Beca. Amy cheered and Chloe went to serve for team Bechloe. Using her jump serve she sent it flying over the net. It looked like it was going to be out so Aubrey let it go past her, the ball landed and they looked at Ashley who was acting on a line judge.
She motioned her arms forward. "In!"
"What! It was clearly out!" Aubrey argued but shut up when Ashley showed her the bump in the sand where the ball landed. 2-0 was the score as Chloe went back to serve. The next point went to Stacey and Aubrey making it 2-1. The game went back and forth with long volleys until the game was 12-13 with Stacey and Aubrey up by one. Beca took a deep breath a served sending it over the net. Stacey tried to spike it but Chloe was able to block it making the ball land just on the line tying it up 13-13.
"Nice Red!" Beca shouted giving her a high ten this time. While Aubrey tapped Stacey's behind.
"It's ok babe, come on we got this." She said throwing the ball back under the net. The girls on the sideline where yelling their encouragements for whoever they were rooting for. Beca sent the ball over in a hard serve to Aubrey who bumped the ball to Stacey. Stacey set the ball for Aubrey who sent the spike into the corner. Beca had to make a diving dig to keep it alive. She couldn't control where it went and sent it in the air on the sidelines. Chloe ran over it having no choice but just to volley it back over the net since there was no chance for a kill. Aubrey tried to spike it back over but again Chloe came up big blocking it. It still made it over the net but Beca was able to set up perfectly for Chloe to kill the ball. She hit it hard in the corner, Aubrey tried to save it but it ricocheted off her arm where Stacey couldn't get to it.
"Yes! Awesome kill Red! One more to beat Boobs McGee and that skinny blonde bitch!" Amy yelled and Aubrey glared at her causing Amy to back pedal. "I mean…I love you Aubrey." Amy smiled. Chloe caught the ball that CR retrieved for them. She walked over to Beca who still had the serve.
"Ok Becs one more, you can do it." Chloe encouraged and Beca nodded. They all took their positions for the first match point. Beca took a deep breath and backed up a bit. She threw the ball high in the air towards the serve line and ran towards it jumping in the air hitting it hard. She delivered her first jump serve of the night and it took Stacey and Aubrey by surprise. Stacey barely got to the ball bumping it too close to the net. Aubrey and Chloe both jumped up trying to spike the ball. They both hit it hard making it pop out of their hands causing it rolling across the net finally landing in the sand. On Aubrey and Stacey's side. Chloe threw her arms straight up in the air.
"We won!" She squealed running towards Beca tackling her into the sand hugging her. "Becs we won!" She said sitting up on top of a smiling Beca.
"You were awesome Chlo."
"No we were awesome." Chloe smiled and stood up then lending a hand to Beca. She pulled her up and they were standing closely to one another. They locked eyes for a moment and Chloe briefly glanced down to Beca's lips then back up.
"Now that's what I'm talking about!" Amy yelled and they jumped apart. They watched her counting her winnings. "Here's twenty for you." She said giving Beca twenty dollars. "Twenty for you." Handing over a twenty to Chloe and pocketing the rest. "And sixty for me." They were soon joined by everyone else.
"How come Chloe and I only get twenty a piece and you get sixty?"
"I made the bet and took on all the risk of losing all the money. Be grateful I like you enough to share my profits." Beca shrugged shoving the bill in her shorts.
"Hey guys that was a great game." Chloe said pulling Aubrey and Stacey into a hug showing there were no hard feelings.
"I have to admit, you guys we're great." Aubrey said making Chloe smile. "And wow Beca where the hell did that jump serve come from?"
"No kidding that was surprising." Chloe complimented and Beca shrugged.
"Just trying to get on your level Chlo."
"Awww you're so sweet."
"Alright bitches let's get back in the pool, I'm wore out from watching that game." Fat Amy said leading the group back to the pool. Chloe grabbed Beca's hand pulling her along.
"Come on let's go swim." Chloe said.
"I can't. I don't have a swim suit."
"Just wear what you have on, it's basically the same thing." Chloe suggested. Beca had changed into the pair the athletic shorts she had given Chloe the night before and a sports bra. Most of the girls were in similar clothing except they actually had bikini tops on. Most of the girls already jumped in by the time Beca and Chloe made it. While Beca emptied her pockets Chloe removed her shorts revealing her black bikini bottoms.
"Holy shit." Beca thought and Chloe turned.
"What?"
Shit. Did I say that out loud? "Uhhh, what?"
"You just said 'holy shit'." Chloe paused then smirked walking closer to Beca stopping right in front of her. "Were you staring at my ass again?" She asked Beca started backing away from her.
"Wh…What…no." Beca stuttered scrunching her face. "Don't be ridiculous and I never stared at your ass." But Chloe wasn't buying it and Beca was running out of room.
"Don't lie. I saw you during my game." Chloe was right in front of her at this point. "You know what I think?" She asked placing her hand just under Beca's sports bra making Beca gulp.
"What?" Beca's heart was beating so hard that she was sure everyone could hear it. Chloe ran her fingertips down Beca's tight stomach leaning in Beca's ear.
"I think you need to cool off." She whispered just before pushing Beca backwards into the pool. Chloe laughed and jumped in right after. Everyone was cracking up having watched the entire scene. Beca came up choking on water when she opened her eyes she came face to face with a smirking redhead.
"You are such a jerk!" She said before tackling Chloe taking them both under. They came up sputtering. Beca had her arms around Chloe's waist while the redhead had her arms around her neck pulling them both under again. When they came up they were laughing. Soon they realized all eyes were on them and everyone was silent.
Chloe still had a smile on her face and shrugged looking at them. "What?"
"Do you want us to leave so you two can get it on in my pool?" Amy blatantly asked.
"Amy!" Aubrey chastised her. Both Beca and Chloe blushed profusely.
"What I'm getting horny just from-"
"Amy stop talking! You're embarrassing them." She said and all eyes went to them again. If it were possible they turned even redder. Beca just gave up she sunk under the water hoping that she could just drown there. She could still hear the conversation as it started above.
"Really guys? Thanks for completely humiliating us. Poor Beca's trying to drown herself." Chloe scolded them crossing her arms. "Amy you're going to apologize when she comes back up." She demanded and Amy nodded. They all waited for Beca to come up, apparently she could hold her breath longer than Chloe thought. About after a full minute of being underwater Chloe huffed and grabbed Beca's arm pulling her up. "Really Beca? What are you going to do drown yourself?" Even Beca couldn't escape Chloe's wrath at the moment. Beca gasped trying to catch her breath.
"Uh, I can try." Beca admitted and Chloe rolled her eyes then looked at Amy.
"Amy," she said gesturing to Beca. "Go ahead."
"Right, uh sorry about that Beca. Didn't mean to embarrass you or anything."
Beca smiled. "It's fine, you don't have anything to apologize for. Really." Amy smiled and nodded. "Just be on the lookout for flying cotton balls." Beca added wiping Amy's smile off causing everyone to bust up laughing breaking the awkwardness of the situation.
"You wouldn't?" Amy asked and Beca shrugged smirking. "You're evil." Amy nodded and slung an arm over Beca's shoulders, "I like you short stuff."
"Ok! Let's play some chicken." Chloe suggested grabbing Beca back from Amy. "You're on my team. You guys go first." Chloe backed Beca up to the end of the pool. "You ok? I'm sorry about them. Amy doesn't really have a filter." Chloe explained taking Beca's hands between them linking their fingers.
"I'm fine." Beca rubbed circles on the back of Chloe's hand and looked her in the eyes. "Sorry I kind of left you for a minute to deal with that by yourself." Chloe smiled.
"It's ok I'm used to them." Chloe leaned in kissing Beca on the cheek. "Come on let's go kick some ass at chicken." Pulling her back towards the others.
"Geez, competitive much?"
"Shut up, like you're any better."
"Touché."
