Beca paused as her fingers gently hooked under Chloe's panties. She looked down at the older teen before her. This was kinda a big step for both of them, Beca having had absolutely no experience in giving oral sex. She'd gone from being the experienced one of the two of them to being a total novice. Not that she imagined Chloe had had any experience giving oral sex to women, but the amount of blow jobs that Beca had heard that Chloe had given to guys in the past had her assuming that the girl had received many an oral session in return.

Chloe swallowed loudly. She felt a little nervous as she looked at Beca knelt between her legs, but only because this was the first time she'd ever received oral sex. And she honestly didn't know how the jocks at school could receive them so casually.

"A-are you sure you're ok with me doing this?" Beca asked cautiously, having seen a flicker of nerves on Chloe's face. Of course Chloe was nervous, Beca thought. She was about to have a girl go down on her for the first time. But little did Chloe know, Beca had absolutely no idea what she was doing.

"Yeah" Chloe said with an exhale, a soft smile spreading across her face. Because she did want this. She wanted this because Beca wanted this. And she trusted Beca. And…loved Beca. But as she watched the brunette slowly slip her panties down her legs and off her feet, she noticed Beca's expression change to a more nervous one. And then it hit her.

"Wait." Chloe said quickly, and as Chloe's pantie's left her hand to land on the floor beside the bed, Beca froze, staring down at the redhead, "Are you ok with doing this?" Chloe asked quietly.

She watched as Beca scrunched her face up, trying to ooze confidence, but Chloe could tell that something was off, "Pfft, yeah, of course I'm okay with this!"

Chloe saw her hesitate and the brunette letting out a heavy exhale, adding, "I um..I just..haven't ever..done..this..before.."

Beca felt her stomach flip with nerves when she watched Chloe slowly sit up, the redhead wrapping her arms around her petite waist. Beca rested her hands on Chloe's arms and she felt a moment of calm as she stared into those bright blue eyes of her girlfriend.

"Well for what it's worth," Chloe whispered, "I've never had this done before so..we're both novices in that department." and the redhead nudged her nose against the tip of Beca's nose playfully, a soft encouraging smile on her face.

"Right.." Beca began, pausing as she drifted her fingertips up Chloe's arms, noting the feel of goosebumps that trickled over the teen's skin in their wake. And as they held each other's eye contact, they both let out gentle sighs.

Chloe's smile broadened as she watched Beca bite her bottom lip, seemingly having an internal battle over something.

"What?" Chloe asked curiously.

"I uh.." Beca said, pushing her long brown hair back from her face while scrunching her face up again, "..I'm gonna be really forward here.."

"What, more forward than telling me you want to taste me?" Chloe asked cheekily, cocking her eyebrow while she grinned, thrilled that Beca revealed a coy smile in response.

"Yeah, uh.." Beca paused, swallowing loudly. Her heart was racing and if it hadn't been for her girlfriend's arms around her waist Beca felt sure she might have needed to lay down. But despite all the nerves she felt calm and at ease being able to reveal something for the first time to someone she trusted with her feelings. The first person she'd truly ever trusted.

Beca let out a huge sigh, her hand returning to Chloe's upper arm, her fingers twiddling a lock of the teen's long red hair while she looked into the girl's bright blue eyes, "I'm in love with you"

And Beca knew what she had just confessed was true because she'd only known Chloe a couple of days, and yet she felt a love for her far stronger than she'd ever felt anything for anyone before. To her relief she saw Chloe's grin soften to a kind and calm smile while she felt her arms tighter a little further around her waist.

"Yeah?"

"Yeah." Beca confirmed, though her expression dropped as she began to panic a little, "But you don't have to say it back. That…that's not why I said it…I just…" the brunette paused, still relieved that Chloe hadn't backed away from her. That that beautiful smile was still on her face. So Beca let out another sigh, raising her eyebrows to emphasise her final words, "…I'm crazy about you."

Chloe felt as though her entire body became lighter than air and a broad smile immediately wiped over her face. Beca loved her. Beca was in love with her! And sure they might only be eighteen and seventeen respectively but that didn't make their feelings any less real.

"I'm in love with you too." Chloe said quickly, just as her lips crashed onto Beca's. And the two teens shared a deep kiss, their tongues lapping at one another's mouths while they smiled goofily at each other's words that echoed in their minds, "I love you so much" Chloe added, mumbling it against Beca's lips, smiling as she felt the younger teen's fingers snaking into her hair and between her red locks. God she was so in love with Beca right now. And nothing could happen to ever make her change that feeling.

Suddenly there was a brief knock on Chloe's bedroom door, and it opened.

"Chloe, your Mom asked me to-" but Greg Beale froze as he stepped into his daughter's bedroom and caught the eighteen year old quickly breaking a kiss with her 'study buddy'. Her female 'study buddy'.

"WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?!"

Beca felt as though she was having a heart attack, her chest tightening as she felt Chloe release her body. Chloe felt her heart racing at a million miles an hour as she looked around her girlfriend at the figure of her father who stood just inside the door of her bedroom, his stunned and horrified expression being one that she'd never seen before. Her father never swore.

"Daddy!" Chloe started in a pleading tone, snatching her hands from where they'd been placed (cupping Beca's ass cheeks over the girl's plaid skirt).

Beca, meanwhile, scrambled off the bed, hissing a low "Shhhhhhit!", making sure she backed a few paces away from the bed and from her girlfriend's furious father.

"Mr Beale - I - um.." Beca stuttered, her stomach twisting. She felt so sick. And as though she was about to have a panic attack. Shit. This couldn't be happening. And not like this. To her horror, Chloe's father snapped back a loud, "Shut UP!"

Chloe scrambled off the bed after her girlfriend, moving to stand beside her and in front of her father. She was certain she'd never seen him look so angry before, as he bellowed, "Chloe, what the HELL were you doing with HER?"

Chloe could feel tears prickling in her eyes as she held her hands up to try to calm him down, "Daddy, please…"

"Oh God," Greg Beale said, his eyebrows rising as suddenly something seemed to make sense, "is THAT why she was in our yard last night? You two were..doing…" he waved his hands between the two teen girls who had stepped a little closer together, as if united against him in some way, "stuff together?!"

Chloe felt sick. Beca felt sick. Greg felt sick. And little did the teen's know both their mothers were on the end of the phone that Mr Beale held in his hand at that very moment.

The three mothers sat in the stationary car, holding their breaths as they listened though Dee Beale's phone at the sound of Greg Beale wandering up the stairs of the Beale family house.

"What's going on?" Claire Posen asked, leaning forward to she could poke her head between the two front seats and look at her friends, both Dee and Melissa glanced at her, both with uncertain expressions.

"We think Beca and Chloe are-" Melissa Mitchell began, but she didn't have a chance to finish her sentence, because all of a sudden Dee's phone erupted with the loud voice of her husband.

"WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?!"

Dee felt the colour drain from her face, looking at Melissa who seemed as equally perplexed. Her husband never swore. And he sure as hell never yelled. Which was really all the evidence the two women needed to know that their curiosity had been right. And the dialogue that followed seemed to back it all up a treat.

"Daddy!" Dee heard her daughter call out.

"Shhhhhhit!" Melissa heard her daughter say through the phone.

There was the sound of some sort of scrambling which seemed a little too far away from the phone for the two mother's to assume it was Greg Beale going after Beca. But neither woman would put it past the man who had been renowned for being protective ever since they'd all gone to high school together.

"Mr Beale - I - um.." Melissa couple hear her daughter stuttering, and her stomach was in a knot as she tried not to think about what sort of state he'd found the two teens in.

"Shut UP!" Greg was heard yelling, before evidently turning his attention to his eighteen year old daughter, "Chloe what the HELL were you doing with HER?"

"Daddy, please.." Dee heard her daughter pleading, but Greg didn't seem to be finished.

"Oh God, is THAT why she was in our yard last night? You two were.." Dee and Melissa felt the pits of their stomach twist, both feeling somewhat sick. It was all a huge thing to have to come to terms with. But to hear it about to be said so plainly by Chloe's father? It was almost too much. "..doing..stuff together?!"

"Um IIIIIIII might give choir a miss tonight ladies.." Claire Posen said awkwardly, sitting back and reaching for the passenger door, "..It sounds like you've got a lot on your plate.." but she remained still while she waited for permission to leave, Dee still holding the phone to her ear, Melissa and Claire staring at it.

There was a pause down the phone which had the women in the stationary car holding their breath, trying to listen hard to anything that might be said. But whatever was said must've been done without words because suddenly a groan of dismay came out of Greg Beale's mouth, before his voice could be heard more clearly down the phone.

"Dee, I'm going to need you to come home!"

Dee turned around in her seat, giving Claire an apologetic look and Ms Posen simply shook her head gently, as if telling her friend not to worry about it, then climbed out of the car. As the car door slammed shut, Dee turned back to Melissa just as her husband added, "And you might as well bring Mel with you."

Beca swallowed loudly as she watched Chloe's father end the call to his wife with those final words "you might as well bring Mel with you." Shit. Her mother was on the way too. And she now knew about her and Chloe. Oh she was in deep trouble.

Chloe watched as her father took several deep breaths then let out a heavy sigh, "Your Mom's will be here soon. I'll see you both downstairs."

The man turned on the spot and left the room to go downstairs, yelling behind him, "AND KEEP THE BEDROOM DOOR OPEN!"

Beca and Chloe stood frozen to the spot, their mouths dry and agape. Both equally terrified and in shock. Everything had happened so quickly. Was happening so quickly. And neither of them had any idea what they were going to do.

The front door opened then closed and Aubrey furrowed her brow as she looked up from her laptop. She was sat at the kitchen table of her mother's home, trying to cram the last of her studying into one evening before her history test tomorrow. She always had been blessed with a photographic memory..

"That was quick.." Aubrey said with a curious smile on her face as she watched her mother wander into the kitchen and over to the fridge.

"Dee and Mel have had a bit of a situation with their girls.." Claire said with a light chuckle as she tugged a bottle of wine out, then gathered two wine glasses.

Aubrey hesitated, "What do you mean their girls ?"

"I mean Chloe and Beca.." Claire said with another chuckle, shaking her head slightly as she poured wine into the two glasses, still unable to believe what she'd heard in Dee Beale's car.

"No Mom, I meant what about them?" Aubrey said with a roll of her eyes as she accepted a glass of wine from her mother.

"That they've been secretly seeing each other.." The mother said, her eyes widening with the reveal, excited to be able to share the gossip with her daughter.

Aubrey felt like she'd been punched in the stomach. Of course! That was what had been going on! Aubrey had suspected it for a couple of days now but she'd never imagined she'd actually been right. After all, Chloe had had almost as many boyfriends as she had. Chloe had been with Drake the past couple of weeks! Well..Aubrey had kinda been with Drake too but Chloe hadn't needed to know that..

"I can't believe you never told me!" Claire Posen said with a broad grin, nudging her daughter's arm, "Chloe's supposed to be your best friend!"

"Yeah.." Aubrey said quietly, taking a large gulp of wine before looking down at her phone, remembering the photo she'd taken of the ring-imprint on Drake's jaw earlier in the day, "..yeah she is isn't she.."
