Chloe, Beca, Stacie and Aubrey are sitting around Chloe's dining room when the first reports of Beca and Trish's "breakup" hit social media and the mainstream media. Many of the reports showed pictures and video of Trish's dramatic exit on the heals of telling Beca she wanted a divorce.

"Listen to these headlines," Beca said.

"Up and coming music producer Beca Mitchell splits from Trish Compton, her wife of less than 6 months."

"Trish Compton dumps wife Beca Mitchell and files for divorce."

"Beca Mitchell, part owner of Triple Badass Records, splits from wife and co-owner of the label. Divorce is imminent."

"Social media is split 50-50," Chloe said. "Some think you cheated on Trish, some think Trish cheated on you. Some think that Trish was only using you for your money and health insurance."

"Health insurance?," Beca said with a laugh. "She's using me for my money? Boy, do these people need to get their facts straight."

"Here's one that says the label is probably going to shut down because of your split," Stacie said.

"Shit," Beca said. "I need to nip that one in the bud right now. I don't want our employees to think they're losing their jobs. I'm calling the PR folks."

Beca got up and made the call. They discussed a press release and agreed on the wording. The PR folks said they'd run it by Trish and have something out in less than an hour. Beca thanked them and hung up.

"Don't be surprised if you start getting media calls," Beca told Chloe. "You're part owner of the label, too, and they'll want to know where you stand."

"What do the PR folks say?," Chloe asked.

"They want to use Trish's cancer diagnosis," Beca said. "And, how she was scared and wanted to be married when she died. We love each other but we're not really in love with each other. We asked for understanding during this time. Same old, same old."

"What about the label?," Chloe asked. "What should I say?"

"If they ask," Beca said. "Just tell them that we have no plans to shut it down. We were friends first and foremost and we will continue working with each other."

"Okay," Chloe said. "It's getting late. I need to get ready for our date. What are we doing?"

"I thought since the whole divorce thing is out there," Beca said. "That I could cook dinner for you at my place. If you want to get ready and just come over that will work."

"Okay," Chloe said. "I'll see you before 6:00. Can I bring wine or something?"

"Wine would be good," Beca said. "I'll see you later. I need to go to the grocery store on the way home."

Chloe gives her a quick kiss and Beca leaves. Chloe goes and takes a shower. She calls Stacie and Aubrey in to help her pick out an outfit.

"Chloe," Aubrey says. "Calm down. It's not like it's your first date with Beca."

"But it is," Chloe says. "It's our first date since we broke up five years ago. I want this to go well so she'll see how much I really do love her and we can have a future together."

"She loves you, too," Aubrey said. "Stop panicking."

"Here," Stacie says handing Chloe a pair of light blue skinny jeans and a read tank top. "Wear these with your leather jacket and your red Keds and you're good to go."

"Thanks, Stacie," Chloe said. "This is actually perfect."

"You're welcome," Stacie said.

Chloe gets dressed. She grabs a bottle of wine and heads for the door.

"Don't wait up," Chloe sing songs to Stacie and Aubrey as she leaves.

Chloe arrives at Beca's a little before 6:00. She checks her hair and makeup in the rearview mirror and steps out of the car. She takes a deep breath and goes to the front door and rings the bell. Beca answers almost immediately.

"Hey," Beca says looking Chloe up and down. "You look nice."

"Thank you," Chloe said. "So do you."

"Come on in," Beca said, moving aside to let Chloe enter.

"Here's the wine," Chloe said handing Beca the bottle.

"Great," Beca said. "Would you like a glass now?"

"Sure," Chloe said, following Beca into the kitchen.

"I'm making fettuccine alfredo," Beca said. "Hope you like it."

"I'm sure I'll love it," Chloe said with a smile.

Beca poured the wine and handed a glass to Chloe. Chloe took a sip and looked around, not sure of what to do.

"You want to sit while I finish up dinner?," Beca asked Chloe.

"Oh, sure," Chloe said and sat down at the counter. She watched as Beca pulled the makings of a salad out of the refrigerator.

"Can I help with that?," Chloe asked.

"No thanks," Beca said. "I got it."

Beca threw some mixed greens into a bowl and then added some thinly slice red onions. Next she sliced some strawberries and took some mandarin orange pieces and put those in the salad. She then opened a can of walnuts and threw a small handful into the salad. She shook up the Raspberry Walnut Vinaigrette and set it beside the salad bowl.

Chloe just sat and watched Beca. She was so nervous and jumped when Beca called her name.

"I'm sorry, what?," Chloe said.

"I asked if you were ready to eat?," Beca said with a small laugh. "We can eat here or in the dining room."

"Let's eat here," Chloe said. "I don't feel like moving."

"Okay," Beca said.

Beca poured some dressing on the salad and tossed it all together. She plated some and set it in front of Chloe. She then made herself a plate.

"This is really good," Chloe said. "I don't think I've ever had strawberries and oranges in a salad like this before."

"I had it at a restaurant once," Beca said. "I loved it and started making it at home. Oh shit, I almost forgot."

Beca got up and opened the refrigerator. She came back holding some feta cheese crumbles. She opened the package and sprinkled some on hers and Chloe's salad.

"This will make it taste even better," Beca said.

Chloe smiled and took another bite of the salad, making sure to get some of the cheese.

"Wow," Chloe said. "The cheese really does add a little something more. It's really delicious."

"Thank you," Beca said.

The two eat their salads in silence, stealing glances at each other. The salads are done and Beca plates up the fettuccini alfredo and sets the plates on the counter. Chloe takes a bite and then just pushes the food around on the plate.

"What's wrong?," Beca asked. "You don't like it?"

"No, it's not that," Chloe said putting her fork down. "I know it's silly, but I'm so nervous that my stomach is in knots."

"Thank God," Beca says with a chuckle. "I'm nervous, too."

"I've thought about nothing but being with you for the past five years," Chloe said. "And, now that we're together, I'm nervous and scared. I don't want to screw this up again."

"It's just us," Beca said. "We'll figure everything out together. I love you, Chloe. I'm all in for this."

"I love you, too," Chloe said.

Beca leaned over and kissed Chloe. Chloe kissed her back. Without breaking the kiss, Beca stood and got between Chloe's legs. She put her arms around Chloe's waist and pulled her closer. Chloe put her arms around Beca's neck and deepened the kiss. They only pulled back when oxygen became an issue.

"Would you think I was some kind of slut if I suggested we move this to the bedroom?," Chloe whispered.

"No, to the slut part" Beca said and kissed Chloe again. "And a definite yes to the bedroom part."

Beca gave her another quick kiss and took Chloe's hand. She gently pulled the redhead with her and they quietly walked to Beca's bedroom. Once there, Beca gently laid Chloe on the bed. They spent the next couple of hours relearning each other's bodies. They were laying wrapped in each other's arms and Chloe looks at Beca and smiles.

"I love you," Chloe whispers.

"I love you, too," Beca whispers back.

They settle together and drift off to sleep. The next morning Chloe wakes up feeling sore in all the right places. She smiles and reaches for Beca only to find an empty bed. She sits up and looks around. Her face scrunches up in worry.

"Does Beca regret this?," Chloe thinks getting lost in her thoughts.

Just then the door opens and Beca walks in carrying a tray. Chloe smiles brightly at her.

"Oh, good," Beca said walking over to the bed. "You're awake."

"I am," Chloe said as Beca set the tray on the bedside table.

Beca looked at Chloe sitting up with the sheet bunched around her waist. Beca couldn't help but stare at Chloe's naked chest.

"My eyes are up here," Chloe said with a laugh.

"I know," Beca said with a smirk and walked over and kissed Chloe.

Chloe wrapped her arms around the DJ and pulled her down on top of her.

"I'd love to continue this," Beca said. "But, I definitely need to refuel before we do."

Chloe laughed and let Beca go. She sat up and Beca put the tray over her lap.

"Wow, Becs," Chloe said. "Did you make this?"

"No," Beca said. "I had Mrs. Newman put it all together."

Chloe smiled and dug into the breakfast. She and Beca made small talk while they ate.

"Um, Chlo," Beca said. "Last night was one of the best nights of my life. I realize now what I've been missing the past five years. And, no, I don't just mean the sex. I mean, the connection and love that we had. It's still there."

"I know," Chloe said. "I felt it to."

Chloe kissed Beca and things heated up quickly.

Trish fixed the scarf around her head. Her hair had started growing back but it was still too short to hide the scar from her incision. She finished getting dressed and called for a car to take her to Beca's. She needed to talk to her about a few things. Trish arrived at Beca's and Mrs. Newman let her in.

"Is Beca here?," Trish asked.

"She's in her bedroom," Mrs. Newman told her.

"Thank you," Trish said and headed upstairs.

Beca and Chloe fell back on the bed both trying to catch their breath. They both jumped when Trish walked in calling out Beca's name.

"Oh, my God," Beca yelled scrambling to grab the sheet to pull it over her and Chloe.

"Wow," Trish said. "I'm rethinking not having us consummate our marriage. Kind of looking hot there, Becs."

Chloe starts laughing and Beca's face is redder than a tomato.

"I'm sorry," Trish said. "I was expecting to find you asleep."

"It's okay," Chloe said. "We were pretty much done anyway.

"Speak for yourself," Beca mumbled, causing Chloe to laugh.

"I'll be downstairs," Trish said. "We need to talk about some things regarding our divorce."

"Okay," Beca said. "I'll be down in about 20minutes."

"Oh," Trish said. "Chloe, you should come too. We need to talk about the studio."

"Okay," Chloe said.

Trish left and Beca fell back on the bed with her hands over her face. Chloe laughed at her and said she was going to shower first. The two took turns showering and got dressed. They walked downstairs together to find Trish and Mark in the living room.

"Hey, Mark," Beca said. "I didn't know you were here."

"I asked him to meet me here," Trish said. "Can I talk to you alone for a minute?"

"Sure," Beca said and led Trish to her home office.

"What's up?," Beca asked as soon as they sat down.

"I want to tell Mark the truth about our marriage," Trish said. "I really like him and I don't want their to be any secrets between us."

"Okay," Beca said. "Mark's a good guy. I think he'll understand. Why don't I send him in here and you guys can talk now. Okay?"

"Thanks," Trish said.

Beca went to the living room and told Mark that Trish wanted to talk to him. Mark stood and went to talk to Trish.

"Everything okay?," Mark asked as he walked into the office.

"Yeah," Trish said motioning for Mark to sit. "I need to tell you something and it's going to have to stay between us. Okay?"

"Okay," Mark said looking a bit confused.

Trish proceeded to tell him about her and Beca's marriage. She didn't leave out anything. When she was finished she looked at Mark.

"I'm telling you all this," Trish said. "Because I really like you. And I think this thing between us could be something."

Mark sits there with his brows furrowed. Thinking.

"Can you say something?," Trish said nervously. "Please?"

"So, you and Beca," Mark said. "Didn't have a real marriage?"

"Only on paper," Trish said.

"Okay," Mark said.

"Okay?," Trish said.

"Yeah," Mark said. "I totally get why you did it. I'm glad you were honest with me. I really like you, too, and I want to see where this might go. Do you think it would bother Beca if I asked you out?"

"Beca won't mind," Trish said said with a smile. "She's already dating. Although they are keeping it on the down low until closer to our divorce being final."

"She is?," Mark said. "Wait. Is it Chloe? They are old friends from college, right?"

"Yep," Trish said. "They actually dated in college."

"It all makes sense now," Mark said. "Whenever they were in a room together there was this sexual energy. I thought I was going to have to tell you Beca was cheating on you, because it seemed like that's where it was headed."

"I knew about Chloe," Trish said. "They were both being respectful of our marital status and promised they wouldn't do anything until the divorce was in the works. Beca and I had a talk and we both agreed that we should be able to pursue someone else since the papers have been filed.?"

"Got it," Mark said.

Mark and Trish joined Beca and Chloe in the living room. Mark smiled when he saw them holding hands and talking with their heads close together.

"Everything good?," Beca asked.

"Everything's great," Trish said.

"That's great," Beca asked.

"Yeah, it is," Trish said. "Now, let's talk about our divorce."

"Okay," Beca said. "I got the papers and it's pretty generic. We will have to discuss our assets though."

"I agree," Trish said. "I think we should just walk away with what we brought to the marriage. I'm leaving you in my will because you are still the one person I trust more than just about anyone."

"You can change it later," Beca said. "Do you want this house?"

"What?," Trish said. "No. This was already your house when we got married. I'm not asking for anything from you, no alimony, no property, no anything. Seriously, we just walk away with what we brought to the marriage."

"Okay," Beca said. "I can live with that."

"As for the studio," Trish said. "We will leave everything just as it is. We three will continue to run it just like we have been. We won't be closing it down or having to buy each other out. Agreed?"

"Agreed," Beca said.

"Agreed," Chloe said.

"Did I leave anything out?," Trish asked.

"Um," Mark said. "Do you think you might want to talk about what you're going to say when the paparazzi see you out dating?"

"Our PR people put out a statement last night," Beca said. "Basically saying that we still love each other but we're not in love with each other. That Trish was scared of being alone because of the tumor. Now that she's better, she realizes that she wants to be married to someone she's in love with. I agree with that and wish nothing but the best for her. That sort of thing."

"Okay," Mark said. "When are you going to come out as dating?"

"Well," Trish said. "I think we should start tonight. All of us having dinner as friends. After a couple of times then maybe we can say it became something else."

"Oh," Mark said with a grin. "I like that."

Trish smiled.

"Beca and I can do the same thing," Chloe said. "I mean, people already know we knew each other in college. It won't be weird for us to be out together. Maybe we can even double sometime just to show that we're friends and then to show that you two are okay with the other dating someone else."

They all agreed to have dinner together that evening and Mark and Trish left. A little it later Chloe said she should probably go as well so she had time to get ready.

"Do you to stay here again, tonight?," Beca asked.

"As much as I'd love to, I can't," Chloe said. "I have work tomorrow and if I stay here, I won't get much sleep."

"Okay," Beca said. "I'll pick you up at 6:00. I love you."

"I love you, too," Chloe said kissing Beca once more.

Beca opened the door and watched Chloe leave. Chloe got back to her house and found Aubrey and Stacie sitting on the couch watching a movie.

"Well at least you're wearing your own clothes," Aubrey said with a laugh.

"Ha, ha," Chloe said with a smirk.

"Do you have a habit of coming home wearing someone else's clothes, Chlo?," Stacie asks with a suggestive wink.

"She did," Aubrey said. "There were many mornings she'd come home wearing Beca's clothes when we were at Barden."

"So," Stacie said. "Did you two reacquaint yourselves last night?"

Chloe let out a squeal and flopped down on the sofa.

"We did," Chloe said with a grin. "Five times. And two more times this morning."

"Good for you," Stacie said with a laugh.

"Seriously, Chloe," Aubrey said. "I didn't want to hear about you and Beca back then, and I don't really want to hear about it now."

"Jealous?," Chloe asked.

"Jealous?," Stacie asked. "Have you met me? She is definitely not jealous."

"Stacie!," Aubrey said cheeks turning redder than a tomato.

Stacie and Chloe laughed. The girls spent the day just hanging out, watching movies, and talking. Around 5:00 Chloe excused herself and went to take a shower. After her shower she picked out an outfit to wear to dinner with Beca, Mark and Trish. Beca was there to pick her up at 6:00 and they met Trish and Mark at the restaurant.

The paparazzi were out in full force tonight. The two couples were both photographed as they entered the restaurant. There were more flashes from outside once the two couples were seated at their table.

"God," Mark said. "Do they ever stop?"

"Beca's a grammy winning music producer," Trish said. "And, I made a big scene when I officially asked her for a divorce. They'll be around until something bigger comes along."

"Yeah," Beca said. "Plus the fact that we're out together only a week after her big dramatic scene at the diner, they're definitely going to be on us all night."

The four enjoyed their dinner. Mark and Trish definitely wanted to go out together again. Chloe and Beca were both happy for the couple. Dinner was finished and the couples were ready to leave. Beca called for her car and offered Trish and Mark a ride. They accepted and left together and were ready to face the cameras.

"Beca, are you and Trish getting back together?," a reporter asked.

Beca stopped and smiled.

"No," Beca said. "Trisha and I both agree to this divorce. We still love each other and will remain friends."

"Trish, did Beca cheat on you?"

"Seriously, dude?," Beca said.

"No," Trish spoke up. "Beca did not cheat on me. Since my prognosis has changed for the better, I realized that I wanted to be in love with the person I was married to. I do love Beca with all my heart, but we're not in love. I want us both to get our happy ending."

"Trish, who's the guy?"

"This is Mark," Trish said. "He's a lawyer at our label."

"Chloe, do you think the divorce will hurt Triple Badass Records?"

"No, I don't," Chloe said. "We are all friends and the label will continue to run just as it has been."

"Our car is here guys," Beca said. "We'll see you around."

The two couples got in the car and waved at the photographers as the driver drove off and dropped everyone off at their respective homes.

One month later, Beca and Chloe are having lunch together.

"I can't believe," Beca said. "That I'm officially divorced as of today."

"I can't believe ," Chloe said. "That you got a divorce in like a month."

"According to our lawyers," Beca said. "A month is pretty normal if the divorce is uncontested and all the papers were filed."

"So," Chloe said. "Does this mean we can stop pretending to be just friends hanging out?"

"Hold on," Beca said pulling out her phone.

She found the number she was looking for and pressed call.

"Hey," Beca said. "It's me."

"Hey, ex-wife," Trish said. "What's up?"

"How would you feel if you saw a picture of me, taken by the paps, kissing Chloe?," Beca asked.

"Is this your way of announcing that you two are an item?," Trish asked with a laugh.

"Yep," Beca said. "What do you think?"

"If you check your twitter you'll see I beat you to the punch this morning," Trish said.

"What?," Beca said. "Chloe pull up Trish's twitter."

Chloe pulled up twitter on her phone and found a picture of Trish and Mark and reads the caption.

"Getting a kiss from my new fella. #Trishsnewguy"

"You bitch," Beca said with a laugh. "Well, I guess it won't matter now. So, I'll see you back at the studio ex-wife of mine."

"See you later," Trish says and hangs up the call.

"Chloe Beale," Beca said. "Will you be my girlfriend?"

"Beca Mitchell," Chloe said with a smile. "I'd love to be your girlfriend."

Beca leaned over and kissed Chloe. And the paparazzi were there to capture the moment. Beca and Chloe laughed and even waved at the paparazzi. The finished lunch and were ready to leave.

"Ready to face the inevitable questions?," Beca asked.

"I am if you are," Chloe said.

Both girls walked out of the restaurant holding hands.

"Beca, are you and Chloe dating?"

"Yes, we are," Beca said. "And, she just agreed to be my girlfriend."

"Beca, how do you feel about Trish dating?"

"I'd be a hypocrite if I said it bothers me," Beca said. "I wish her and Mark all the best. Mark is a great guy and they'll be good for each other."

"Chloe, do you think Beca is 'the one' for you?"

Chloe stopped and looked at Beca. She smiled and turned back to the reporter.

"Yes," Chloe said. "Yes, I do."

Beca smiled and kissed Chloe. Their car pulled up and both girls hurried to get in. The driver pulled off and Beca kissed Chloe again.

"So," Beca said. "You think I'm the one for you, huh?"

"You've been the one for me for years," Chloe said. "I was just too much of a coward before. I"m not a coward anymore. I love you, Beca."

"I love you, too," Beca said and gave Chloe a lingering kiss.
