Beca jumped in her truck after the news. There was no way in hell she was leaving Chloe. She had to do something. She hoped that she could talk Sarah into letting her live with them. If not she would stay with Chloe or even Jesse and his mom. While on her way to Sarah's house her phone rang. Seeing that it was Chloe, she chastised herself for forgetting to call.
"Hey babe." She answered.
"Hey, are you on your way over?" Chloe asked.
"Not yet, I'm going to run over to Sarah's for a little while. I need to talk to her about something." Beca could feel the tears welling up in her eyes. She didn't want Chloe to know she was crying, but her voice had cracked, giving her away.
"Baby, what's wrong?" The redhead's concerned voice came over the phone and Beca couldn't hold it in any longer. She quickly pulled over to the side of the road before she broke down.
"I can't do it, Chlo." She sobbed.
"Can't do what, baby?"
"My…mom…they're…we're…" Beca tried to explain through sobs but couldn't get it out before Chloe's voice rang through again.
"Beca where are you?" She asked and Beca could hear the anxiety in her voice.
"On Mic…Michigan and State."
"Okay, just stay there. I'm on my way." She disconnected and Beca leant her head on her steering wheel and continued to let the tears fall.
Chloe arrived in record time, pulling up behind Beca's black Titan. She jumped out of her car and ran up to the driver's side door to see her girlfriend still slumped over the wheel. She opened it, startling the other girl. "Beca?" She barely got the words out before the brunette threw herself on her and sobbed even harder. "Baby, what's going on? You're scaring me." Beca lifted her head and tried to dry her tears.
"Can you take me to Sarah's?" She asked when she collected herself. They needed to drive and Beca knew if they started talking about it, neither would be in a position to do so. "I'll tell you everything there, I promise."
"Absolutely, baby." She rubbed Beca's arms soothingly. They pulled Beca's truck into a parking lot nearby and then both hopped into Chloe's Camero. The brunette clung onto Chloe's hand the entire ride. She kept silent even though there were a million thoughts running through her mind of what had Beca so upset. "Whatever it is we'll get through it, Becs." I hope so. Beca thought but just nodded.
Soon they were pulling into Sarah's driveway and Chloe cut the engine. She turned and grabbled both of Beca's hands, waiting for the girl to spill. "Jim took a job back in Cali." She said, caressing Chloe's knuckles with her thumbs. "My mom said we're moving back in two weeks."
Chloe couldn't breathe. Tears started coming before she could stop them. "What?" She whispered, she couldn't have heard that right. Beca's tears returned too as she tried to wipe Chloe's. "No. No, you can't."
"I know." The brunette answered, taking Chloe's face in her hands. "I know." She repeated, kissing her girl. "That's why we're here."
"So she's just going to up and move again just like that?" Sarah asked, irritated that their mother was going to do that to Beca again.
"I was hoping that maybe if you're going to stay here, that…that I could stay with you and Kayden?" Beca asked nervously. Chloe was sitting beside her, ready to call her parents if this plan didn't work out.
"Of course you can, Becs."
"So you're not going to move back?" Beca asked, needing clarification.
"Not if you want to stay here." Sarah smiled at Beca and Chloe's relieved sigh. "I moved here to be closer to my sister. And besides work is going well and Kayden loves it here too." She moved to give Beca a hug. "I see how much you love it here too. You've got friends, real friends. And I this one wouldn't let you leave even if you tried." She nodded her head towards Chloe.
"You got that right." The redhead smiled. "I was already plotting the kidnapping."
"Thank you." Beca told her sister.
"Now let's call Mom and tell her the news. You guys can stay for dinner too if you want, I know Kayden would be sad if she didn't get to see you guys after her nap." Sarah said, jumping up to get her phone. Beca threw her head back against the couch and let out a long sigh feeling physically and emotionally exhausted. Chloe cuddled up to her girlfriend.
"You okay?"
"I am now." Beca answered. "It really scared me…the thought of leaving you." The brunette kissed the top of Chloe's head and held her a little tighter.
"Trust me, I wouldn't have let you go."
After the little freak out they had Beca and Chloe decided to stay the night at Sarah's and forced her to go out while they watched Kayden. She was ecstatic when Sarah told her that Auntie Becs was going to be living with them. After braiding the Kayden's hair and playing hide and seek it was time for her to settle down for the night. Beca had promised that they could watch Frozen, the little girl's new obsession. So after her bath they all settled onto the couch.
"Come on Munchkin." Chloe said, pulling Kayden to her lap.
"We gonna watch Frozen?" Kayden asked tiredly.
"Yep, we're going to have a slumber party in here." Beca put the dvd in and settled on the couch. None of them made it through half of the movie before falling asleep. Sarah came home around midnight and saw all of them cuddled up on the couch, smiling at the sight. Even though she was sad that their mother was moving back to California, she was happy that she was going to be spending more time with her sister.
