Fighting for Love
As Beca quickly dressed, she could feel Dr. Banks' angry stare burning a hole in her back. She refused to look at the fuming doctor. Once she was dressed, she headed out the clinic door.
"BECA?" Dr. Banks firmly asked in a tone that stopped Beca in her tracks.
"What?" Beca mumbled, still refusing to turn around.
"Please don't hurt Chloe anymore," Dr. Banks softly pleaded.
Beca angrily spun around and flared at Dr. Banks "HURT HER? HURT HER? SHE HURT ME! SHE…," she sputtered off.
Dr. Banks walked over to Beca and guided the angry young woman back into the clinic. She sat Beca in the closest chair.
"Beca, you and I both know how Chloe feels about you," Dr. Banks softly stated.
Beca nodded.
"The longer you deny your feelings for Chloe, the longer you hurt her," Dr. Banks placed a reassuring hand on Beca's arm.
"BUT I don't swing…," Beca trailed off, "…that way."
"Really," Dr. Banks said.
"YEAH! REALLY!" Beca exclaimed.
"Then why did you get so upset when Aubrey expressed her interest in Chloe?" Dr. Banks asked.
Beca opened her mouth, but nothing came out, so she closed it. After several attempts, Beca realized she looked and felt like a fish out of water, so she crossed her arms and fumed.
"Chloe spoke to me about her emerging feelings a while ago, but she wouldn't disclose who she was interested in. Up until recently, I had no idea you were the one she was interested in. Personally, I thought it was Aubrey," Dr. Banks answered Beca's unasked question.
Beca arched one eyebrow, "Seriously? Posen?"
"Why not? Aubrey cares a great deal for Chloe," Dr. Banks retorted.
"BUT…she hooked up with Stacie," Beca smugly stated.
Dr. Banks countered with, "That's because Chloe is in love with you," and added, "Please tell me you didn't expect everyone to keep their love lives on hold for you."
"HEY! I'm not that selfish," Beca snapped.
Dr. Banks smiled at Beca.
"Are you done with me now?" Beca stood and headed towards the door.
"Beca?" Dr. Banks asked.
"Don't worry doc, I promise I won't hurt Chloe anymore," Beca reassured and walked out the clinic door in search of Chloe.
Chloe was halfway home before she realized she was still wearing the paper gown from the clinic. She slipped on her jacket and zipped it all the way up to her chin. As she rounded the corner to her block, she saw a familiar figure leaning against the fence near her house.
The redhead stopped and asked, "What are you doing here?"
"I was worried about you little one," Kommissar answered.
"Well, I'm fine, so you can go," Chloe waved Kommissar away and continued walking.
"Yes, I can see. I like your paper dress," Kommissar laughed.
Chloe abruptly stopped, spun around, and angrily stormed back to Kommissar. She glared at the laughing tall blonde.
"Stop laughing!" Chloe demanded.
Before Kommissar could say anything, she and Chloe heard a loud "SHIT!" They looked down the street and saw Beca's back running away. Chloe stared frozen in shock.
"Little one? Are you alright?" Kommissar asked, "Shouldn't you run after her?"
Chloe shook her head, spun around, and headed towards her house. Kommissar looked at Chloe's sad retreating figure, rolled her eyes, scooped Chloe up in her arms, and took to the skies. The terrified redhead looked down and buried her face in Kommissar's shoulder. The tall blonde scanned the area for Beca. Once she found the angry brunette, she roughly grabbed the young woman and flew to the top of Mount Bella. Once at the peak, she unceremoniously dropped Beca on a patch of soft grass.
"DUDE! That was NOT cool!" Beca yelled as she brushed herself off.
Kommissar gently placed Chloe down next to Beca.
"You two need to talk…," Kommissar stated and added, "…uninterrupted."
"I have nothing to say to her," Chloe huffed.
"Me? You're the one who…," Beca motioned towards Kommissar, "…with that!"
Kommissar rolled her eyes and unfurled her wings, "Well, it looks like you two are spending the night up here."
"WAIT!" Beca and Chloe yelled at the same time.
"Talk!" Kommissar ordered.
"Chloe, after you stormed out, Dr. Banks explained everything to me and asked me to stop hurting you," Beca sheepishly admitted.
"What? Why?" Chloe softly asked.
"I'm sorry if I hurt you with my indecisiveness, but I wasn't sure if my feelings for you were the same as your feelings for me," Beca said.
"And now?" Chloe inquired.
"Well…after Posen declared her feelings for you, it bothered me. I didn't know why, but it did. I wasn't sure if it was me not wanting to lose my best friend to the biggest pain in my ass or something else. After everything went down in the compound, I realized it was something else, but I wasn't ready to deal with it. After you told me you and…" Beca motioned towards Kommissar, "…made love…"
Kommissar interrupted Beca, "I did not make love to this little one. She let me feed on her, so I would have enough strength to fight with my queen."
"Kommissar, what happened to the queen?" Chloe asked.
"I have her locked up in the compound. I guarantee she will not be fulfilling her vendetta against this one," Kommissar motioned towards Beca.
"Would you do me a favor?" Chloe asked.
"After you two talk," Kommissar stated.
Chloe turned to Beca, "You heard her, let's go talk over there."
A couple of hours later, after Kommissar witnessed the two best friends hug; she flew them off Mount Bella and dropped them off around the corner from Chloe's house.
"Give us an hour, okay?" Chloe asked.
"Yes little one, I shall return in an hour," Kommissar leaned down and kissed the surprised redhead on the cheek.
"HEY!" Beca yelled.
Kommissar laughed and flew away.
Chloe started walking towards home. Beca gently grabbed Chloe's wrist and lightly pulled the redhead to her.
"Beca?" Chloe asked.
"This emotional relationship stuff is all new to me and I promise to get used to it, but I can't guarantee I'll ever get used to her," Beca pouted.
"Beca, it's okay. I'm not sure I'll get used to her either," Chloe laughed and kissed Beca lightly on the lips.
Beca's eyes widened in surprise and she blinked several times, before she finally smiled and pulled Chloe in for a deeper kiss.
"Beca, I love you," Chloe sighed.
"I l…lo…lov…you know, you too," Beca stammered.
Exactly one hour later, Kommissar returned to pick up Beca and Chloe. They went to Dr. Banks' clinic.
Kommissar led Beca, Chloe, and a reluctant Dr. Banks to the holding cell deep in the bowels of the compound. She unlocked the cell door and all four of them stepped inside the inner safety chamber. Kommissar locked the cell door behind them. Astrid glanced up from her book. Kommissar flipped on the speaker system.
"Mother, I have brought someone who wants to see you," Kommissar stated.
"Astrid?" Dr. Banks asked.
Astrid's eyes widened in surprise and she dropped the book she was reading. She blinked several times, unable to believe her eyes.
"Lizzie?" Astrid incredulously asked.
Dr. Banks turned to Kommissar, "Please let me in there."
"No, she might kill you," Kommissar refused.
"I don't care!" Dr. Banks yelled.
Kommissar looked to Chloe for permission. Chloe nodded. Once the safety door unlocked, Dr. Banks pushed through and ran towards Astrid. Kommissar immediately closed and locked the door.
"Lizzie? Is it really you?" Astrid stared at Dr. Banks.
"Yes," Dr. Banks smiled.
"I was informed the humans killed you after you returned to them, because they accused you of killing that coward," Astrid sniffled.
Dr. Banks cautiously stepped closer to Astrid, "Astrid, my love, I'm deeply sorry. I was the one who sent word of my death, because I didn't want you coming to town and getting killed."
In the blink of an eye, Astrid wrapped her arms around Dr. Banks and hugged her tightly.
Kommissar, Beca, and Chloe watched the reunion and happily smiled.
"Can you forgive me?" Dr. Banks asked.
"Only if you can forgive me," Astrid replied.
The reunited lovers hugged and kissed…and kissed.
"I think it's time to leave them," Kommissar stated.
The tall blonde led Beca and Chloe out of the cell.
"Would you two like to come upstairs for something to eat?" Kommissar asked and waggled her eyebrows.
Beca and Chloe looked at each other and laughed, "Nope, we'll never get used to her."
