This is probably the longest chapter I've written for this story so far lol
Stacie bit her lip nervously as she adjusted her blouse. She had just finished her hair and makeup and now she was putting on her outfit. But it seemed like when you're nervous, everything looks wrong and that's how Stacie found herself adjusting her blouse for the fifth time. And she had to leave now. Damn.
"Stacie?" Aubrey said and she chuckled when she found her girlfriend looking about ready to explode while fixing her cleavage. "Come on, we should leave."
"Okay. Yeah, we should." Stacie said and she let out a breath she didn't know she'd been holding. She then grabbed her jacket and purse and followed Aubrey to the car.
Stacie's leg kept shaking as she pressed the gas pedal and for a moment she was afraid she was gonna cause an accident. She took a few deep breaths and calmed down. Just enough to drive safely.
After she found a spot to park, she and Aubrey walked into the restaurant hand in hand. The table that was reserved to them was in a secluded part of the restaurant, but still in the main room.
"This place is amazing! How did you find this place?" Aubrey asked as the waiter approached them to take their drinks.
"Beca told me about it." Stacie said. "She said they serve a mean shrimp toast here and I remember that you love shrimp, so."
Aubrey smiled.
"They have some great risottos! At least it seems like it." Aubrey said, reading the menu. "I think I'm gonna order one."
"Oh me too, then." Stacie said.
"Oh, Chloe and Beca asked us to babysit Charlotte tomorrow, they have another appointment." Aubrey said.
"Okay." Stacie said.
The two ordered their food. Stacie decided she'd propose right before dessert.
Stacie closed her menu and took a deep breath.
"...I'm somewhat afraid of Charlotte's questions." Aubrey chuckled. "More questions about boobs."
"She's a sweetheart." Stacie said. "You know, Bree, I can't help but thank that child.. She's the one who brought us together. And I realized that I can't live without you."
Aubrey smiled lovingly.
"Thanks, baby, that's so sweet. And that's true for me too." Aubrey said. "I realized I can't live without you, too."
Stacie took another deep breath.
"So, I'm hoping that you'd do the honors of marrying me." Stacie said, taking the ring from her pocket and getting down on one knee. "Aubrey Posen, will you marry me?"
Aubrey gasped and covered her mouth with her hands. Tears filled her eyes as she looked at the ring and the nervous brunette in front of her.
"Yes! Yes, of course I will!" She exclaimed and Stacie grinned, kissing her passionately as they were applauded.
Aubrey chuckled as Stacie delicately placed her ring on her finger and hugged her, giving her another kiss.
"I can't believe it." Aubrey said. "This is amazing, I can't wait to tell my parents."
Stacie smiled.
"Me too." Stacie said.
"And I can't wait to tell Beca and Chloe! And Charlotte!" Aubrey said at the thought of telling the little girl.
"She'll probably ask us for a baby." Stacie said with a chuckle.
"You're probably right." Aubrey giggled.
"But Beca already knows." Stacie said. "Hint the restaurant tip."
"Oh!" Aubrey said. "Does Chloe know?"
"No, because then you'd have known." Stacie said.
Aubrey was gonna protest but then she laughed, knowing her best friend all too well.
"True. Chloe's never been a good secret keeper." Aubrey said.
"Yeah." Stacie chuckled.
Aubrey looked at her ring and smiled.
"I can't wait to marry you."
Stacie smiled back. She was so excited to marry the blonde, she couldn't explain.
oO0Oo
There was a knock on the door and Chloe was about to answer when Charlotte ran ahead of her to do it.
"Who is it?" She asked and looked up at her mom, who gave her thumbs up with a smile.
"It's the wolf!" Stacie made a male voice.
Charlotte gasped and turned to Chloe.
"Mamma! The wolf ate Aunt Tacie!" She said, making Chloe and the two adults standing outside the door laugh.
Chloe just shook her head and opened the door. Charlotte saw it was actually her aunt Stacie who was making the wolf voice. She slumped her shoulders.
"Aunt Tacie, you scared me." She said.
Stacie chuckled and picked Charlotte up and gave her a kiss.
"Do you forgive me?" She asked.
"Okay. But don't do that again." Charlotte warned with a stern look.
"Yes, ma'am." Stacie said and put Charlotte down, who ran up to her room.
"Thank you guys so much!" Chloe said. "Beca! We have to leave!"
Beca came running down the stairs with her stuff.
"Let's get going." Beca said.
Aubrey wanted to tell them but knowing Chloe the redhead would make them late for the appointment so she decided she'd tell them later.
The two got in, hanging their purses and jackets before Aubrey went to the kitchen while Stacie went upstairs to find Charlotte. She found the little girl holding her doll with a smile.
"Hey Char! I see you're holding Charlotte." Stacie said.
"I'm practicing." Charlotte said.
"Yeah? For when your sister comes?" Stacie asked at awe.
"Yeah." Charlotte said.
"I'm sure you're gonna be a great sister." Stacie said. "Hey, aunt Aubrey and I have big news, wanna go down there and ask her?"
"Yes." Charlotte said and carried her doll downstairs into the living room. "Hi Aunt Aubee!"
"Hey Char!" Aubrey said. "Do you want something to eat, sweetie?"
"Strawberries." Charlotte said, hopping onto the couch. "Aunt Tacie said you have big news."
"Oh, we do!" Aubrey said excited. "Aunt Stacie and I are gonna get married!"
Charlotte gasped and grinned.
"That's so cool, Aunt Aubee!" She said. "Can I come?"
Stacie and Aubrey chuckled.
"Of course, sweetie, you and your moms are coming. And your sister too." Aubrey said.
"Yay!" Charlotte said, clapping her hands. "I'm so happy!"
Stacie smiled and sat down beside Aubrey.
"We are too." She said.
Aubrey smiled and patted Stacie's knees.
"I'm gonna get your strawberries." Aubrey said, standing up. "Oh! Hey Char, what do you say we make a strawberry and banana smoothie?"
"Yum yum!" Charlotte said. "Do you want to help Aunt Tacie?"
"I sure do!" Stacie said, standing up.
Charlotte put her doll down and followed her aunts into the kitchen.
Stacie and Aubrey were getting the ingredients and the blender, while they heard Charlotte singing softly. It didn't seem like she was causing any trouble so they didn't worry.
"Aunt Tacie! Aunt Aubee, look!" They heard Charlotte say.
The two turned around once the ingredients were all in the blender. They gasped and tried to contain their laughter: Charlotte was grinning, standing on a chair with two oranges in her shirt.
"I have boobs!" She said proudly.
"Oh my God..." Stacie said.
"Wait, wait." Aubrey ran into the living room, grabbed her phone and came back. "Smile, Char!"
Charlotte grinned widely and closed her eyes, putting her hands on her hips and Aubrey took a picture.
Stacie giggled and Charlotte giggled too, then one of the oranges fell onto the ground.
"My boob fell!" Charlotte said, holding onto the other orange as she got off the chair to grab the one on the floor.
"Char, I think you're gonna have to put your boobs down, we need cups." Aubrey said.
Charlotte pouted but put the oranges back in the fruit basket and hopped off the chair, going to her cupboard and getting three plastic cups, that fell on the floor when she tried to hold them all at once.
"Aww! I have tiny arms!" She said, grabbing one, placing it on the counter and then the other two.
Aubrey and Stacie giggled as she said that.
"Thanks, Char." Stacie said.
"You know, Char, when we have a baby, I really hope it's as cute as you are." Aubrey said, getting the attention of both brunettes.
"Wait, wait... baby?" Stacie asked.
"Well, I know you haven't talked about it but I know I want a baby someday." Aubrey said.
Stacie chuckled.
"Yeah but we just got engaged. One thing at a time, Posen." Stacie said and the two adults giggled.
Charlotte giggled too, even though she didn't quite understand the humor.
Aubrey put the smoothie into the three cups and they sat down to drink it. Charlotte was drinking it but a bit of it would drip on her shirt sometimes.
"Char I think you're gonna need a bath after this." Aubrey said with a sigh.
"Yay! I love baths!" Charlotte said. She had smoothie on her face, it went all the way to her cheeks.
Aubrey and Stacie giggled.
"Alright so finish your smoothie and we'll give you a bath." Aubrey said.
After finishing her smoothie, Charlotte put it in the sink (pushed it with her finger to the sink and laughed was more like it), grabbed her doll and went to the bathroom.
Aubrey stayed in the kitchen to wash the dishes while Stacie followed Charlotte upstairs to fill the bathtub and help Charlotte take her clothes off.
"Are you gonna take a bath with me, Aunt Tacie?" Charlotte asked.
"No, I'm just going to stay in the bathroom with you." Stacie said.
"Awwww!" Charlotte said with a pout.
"Yeah but I'll be there, okay?" Stacie said.
"Okay." Charlotte said and raises her arms so Stacie could take off her shirt.
Stacie took off her clothes and grabbed her onesie, since that was her favorite, and some panties. When she turned around, Charlotte was dancing in front of the mirror and singing.
Stacie giggled, "Char, come on. The tub is full, the water is warm."
Charlotte slumped her shoulders and pouted, still staring at herself in the mirror.
"Okay." She said. She grabbed her doll and went to the bathroom. She put the doll sitting on the toilet with a smile before she turned to her aunt. "Up."
Stacie helped her into the tub and the child sat down with a smile.
Stacie grabbed the baby shampoo.
"Char, I need your hair to be wet." Stacie said.
Charlotte held her breath and put the top of her head in the water, even though her face wasn't in the water so she could breathe.
Stacie helped her wet her hair and then she put on shampoo on her head.
Charlotte was doing a little dance as she helped Stacie spread the shampoo and then they both started doing crazy hairdos and faces, giggling.
Stacie then helped her wash the shampoo off.
"Aunt Tacie?" Charlotte asked.
"Yeah?" Stacie asked.
"How will Sophie get out of mamma?" Charlotte asked.
"Well..." Stacie said, feeling nervous. She was basically asking where do babies come from, right?
"How did I get out of mommy?" Charlotte asked again.
"The doctors had to do an operation called C-section, where they opened your mommy's tummy and take you out of there." Stacie explained.
"Ow! Doesn't that hurt?" Charlotte asked.
"No, it doesn't." Stacie said.
Charlotte seemed satisfied and started playing with the water. She then smiled at Stacie before she threw a handful of water at her face and giggled.
"Char! You got me all wet!" Stacie said.
Charlotte giggled until she realized her aunt was serious.
"I didn't like that, Char." Stacie said.
"Sorry Aunt Tacie." Charlotte said.
Stacie sighed and dried herself off.
"It's okay, just don't do that again, alright?" Stacie said.
"Okay." Charlotte said.
"Now let's wash your body and get out." Stacie said.
Charlotte grabbed the soap and tried washing herself but the soap was way too big for her hands. That and it was slippery.
Stacie giggled and grabbed the soap and started washing Charlotte's back with it before moving to her torso. She tickled under Charlotte's armpits and the child laughed.
"So, tell me Char. Are you gonna help your moms with your sister?" Stacie asked as Charlotte stood up so she could wash her girl parts and legs.
"Yes!" Charlotte said. "I'm gonna kiss her, talk to her, calm her down when she's crying.."
"And change her diaper?" Stacie asked knowingly.
"No." Charlotte scrunched up her nose in a way that reminded Stacie of Beca. "That's mommy and mamma's job."
Stacie giggled.
"Yeah?" She asked as she started washing the soap off. "And choosing her clothes?"
"Awwwww!" Charlotte said, bringing her hands to her face, making a cute face. "I wanna do that!"
Stacie smiled.
"Sounds like you're gonna be a great big sister." Stacie said.
Charlotte grinned.
Stacie started emptying the tub and she grabbed Charlotte's towel, a baby pink, mouse towel that had mouse ears and a hood, and wrapped it around the child.
"Aunt Tacie, I'm a mouse!" Charlotte announced, closing the towel around herself and putting the hood over her head.
Stacie chuckled at the child's excitement. She definitely had Chloe's personality.
"Come on, little mouse, let's get you dressed." Stacie said, picking her up.
Charlotte giggled and started talking in a high voice and doing little noises, claiming she was a tiny little mouse. When they got to her room, she quickly dropped the towel to the ground and started running around.
"Char? Char, come on!" Stacie sad.
Charlotte stopped in front of her and stepped into her underwear. She danced a little bit before Stacie put on her onesie.
"Now come on, let's go meet aunt Aubrey. Mommy and mamma should be getting home any minute now." Stacie said.
Charlotte went downstairs and stepped into the living room, presenting herself for her blonde aunt, who clapped and giggled before Stacie sat down beside her and kissed her cheek.
"Aunt Tacie, put Ariel's song!" Charlotte said.
"What song?" Stacie asked.
"The song Ariel sings because she wants to be human!" Charlotte said.
"Ooh!" Stacie said.
Aubrey chuckled while the tall brunette found the song in her phone and put it on. Charlotte smiled and started dancing dramatically, trying to lip sync even though she didn't know most of the lyrics.
Charlotte was dancing across the living room and stopped in front of her aunts.
"Do you want bigabobs?" She asked.
"What?" Aubrey chuckled.
"Bigabobs." Charlotte said. "Aunt Aubee, Ariel talks about it!"
"Oooh!" Aubrey said. She was trying to say "thingamabobs". Granted, it was a hard word for a 4 year old.
They heard keys in the door and the three ran out of the living room.
Aubrey and Stacie, as well as a jumping Charlotte, went to the front door to greet the two women, who chuckled at the attention they received.
"Hi mamma! Hi mommy!" Charlotte said.
"Hey Char!" Chloe greeted with a giggle as she kissed her daughter's cheek.
"How did everything go?" Beca asked.
"Everything went fine, we all made a smoothie, we sang, we had fun, right Char?" Aubrey asked.
"Yes!" Charlotte said. "Oh! And I got boobs!"
Beca and Chloe chuckled but looked at Charlotte with a confused look.
"Here." Aubrey said and took out her phone to show them the picture.
Beca and Chloe laughed at their daughter's cuteness and Charlotte grinned proudly.
"Well now it's time to kiss your aunts goodbye, Char." Beca said. "And thank them."
"Wait! Did you know Aunt Aubee and Aunt Tacie are getting married?" Charlotte announced.
Beca and Chloe both shot their heads up at the revelation and looked at the other couple. Aubrey just grinned and showed them the ring. The four of them squealed for a little while, along with Charlotte, who was jumping up and down in excitement.
"Mommy! Mamma! They said we can come! And Sophie too!" Charlotte said and lifted Chloe's shirt to talk to her sister. "Did you hear that, Sophie? Aunt Aubee and Aunt Tacie are gonna be married and we can come!"
Chloe smiled as she felt the baby kick and Charlotte nodded with a look that seemed like she was paying close attention to someone.
"I'm gonna show them to you. You have to meet everyone." Charlotte said.
Chloe smiled.
"Char, give your aunts a kiss. You should go to bed, we're gonna see them again tomorrow." Beca said.
"Okay." Charlotte said and raised her arms in front of Aubrey. "Up!"
Aubrey giggled and picked her up, kissing her cheek and hugging her.
"Bye Char, goodnight." Aubrey said. "I had a lot of fun."
"Me too!" Charlotte said.
Stacie kissed Charlotte's cheek and smiled.
"We should do this again." She winked and Charlotte grinned.
Aubrey put her down and Charlotte waved at them as they entered their car and drove off.
oO0Oo
Beca smiled as she climbed onto the bed beside her wife, who was quietly reading a book about babies.
Beca grabbed the covers from her wife's belly and pulled it down and pulled her shirt up.
"Hey!" Chloe said with a chuckle.
"What? I wanna talk to Sophie!" Beca said.
"You could keep me covered, Sophie will still hear you." Chloe said.
Beca giggled and put her hand on Chloe's belly.
"Hey Sophie!" She said. "It's mommy."
Chloe smiled and continued reading her book.
"I can't wait to see you, sweetie." Beca said. "You have a really excited sister who can't wait to see you. I wonder if you look like mamma, because if you do, you're gonna be beautiful. Actually you're beautiful no matter what. And I love you so much already and I don't even know you."
Beca grinned when she felt a kick.
"You're so sweet." Chloe said, putting her hand on top of Beca's. "We both love you."
Beca smiled and placed a kiss on Chloe's belly.
"Goodnight sweetheart." Beca said.
Chloe smiled.
"How did I get so lucky?" Chloe asked.
"No, I'm the lucky one." Beca said with a smile as she looked up at Chloe. "A beautiful daughter who I love more than anything else in the world, a baby on the way and.. God, the most beautiful, caring, amazing woman in the world who I love more than anything I know..."
Chloe chuckled, stroking the brunette's hair.
"Son of a bitch I guess I'm doing something right!" Beca sang and Chloe laughed louder. "I finally got something right!"
Beca propped herself up on her elbows as she sang and kissed Chloe's lips. She was gonna pull away but giggled onto the kiss when Chloe grabbed her by the back of her neck and wouldn't let go.
When they pulled apart Chloe bit her lip as she looked at Beca.
"What?" Beca asked with a chuckle.
Chloe just shrugged and massaged the back of the brunette's neck.
"Oh!" Beca said, closing her eyes and enjoying the treatment. "Ooh those hormones."
Chloe chuckled and Beca pulled her in for another kiss, a more passionate one this time.
Beca trailed her kisses down Chloe's neck.
"Think we can keep Charlotte asleep?" Beca asked.
"Yes." Chloe chuckled.
"Good." Beca said with a chuckle as she continued trailing her kisses down.
oO0Oo
The next day, the couple went out for lunch with Aubrey and Stacie and surprisingly stayed out for until 3 in the afternoon.
"How about we head back to our house for a cup of coffee?" Beca offered.
"Mommy, coffee is ew!" Charlotte said.
"You don't have to drink honey." Beca chuckled.
"I think that would be great." Aubrey said.
Beca smiled and they went to their cars.
When they got to Beca and Chloe's house, they found it strange that there was a bunch of cars on the street.
Beca opened the door and literally jumped when a bunch of people came out and yelled 'surprise!'.
"Happy baby shower, aca-bitches!" Fat Amy said and started chuckling nervously when she saw Charlotte glaring at her. "I mean.. I mean pitches! Ha!"
Charlotte continued glaring at her.
"Alright, I'm sorry." Fat Amy said.
Charlotte nodded and ran in to greet everyone, she waved and said 'hi' and smiled at people, even people she didn't know.
"Oh my God, what's that?" Chloe asked as she hugged Amy.
"We're throwing you a baby shower." Fat Amy explained and that's when Chloe noticed her mother, sister and Beca's mother were there.
"Oh my God!" Chloe said as she hugged her mom.
"Happy baby shower, sweetie." Sophia said.
Chloe still had a shocked look on her face as she turned to her sister.
"Zoe?" She said. "You're here too?"
"Well my little sister never invited me to see her new house, I had to come somehow." Zoe said.
"Where is your husband?" Chloe asked.
"Klaus is with Thomas around the city, Lily is here somewhere." Zoe said.
Chloe smiled.
"How long are you staying?" Chloe asked.
"A week." Zoe said.
"Oh that's great!" Chloe said. "I'm so glad you came."
Zoe smiled and Chloe continued greeting the others.
Chloe found her niece, now 8 years old, in the living room playing with Charlotte and a bunch of balloons.
"Hi Lily!" Chloe said and Lily ran to her and hugged her.
"Hi Aunt Chloe!" She said. "It's great to see you. I missed you!"
"I missed you too. I see Charlotte found you." Chloe chuckled as the 4-year-old kept pulling at Lily's dress with a balloon in her hand.
Lily chuckled and smiled.
"I'm gonna let you guys play. Oh! Char, why don't you take your cousin to the backyard to play?" Chloe suggested.
"Okay! Let's go, Lily!" Charlotte said, grabbing Lily's hand and running outside.
Beca and Chloe finished greeting the guests, Beca insisted Chloe sat down, she got themselves drinks and they gathered around the living room for gifts time.
Lily and Charlotte came back in and Charlotte sat beside her mothers.
Beca grabbed a big box and opened it, with Charlotte's help of course.
"Mmm I'm guessing this is.. a diaper genie?" Beca asked and the crowd clapped.
"That's great!" Chloe said.
"Yeah." Beca smiled.
"Guys, this is from us. The Bellas" Fat Amy said.
"Of course, we gave separate gifts, but we figured." Stacie jumped in to correct the Aussie.
Beca frowned in confusion but opened the small bag and took out a small shirt that said 'Mini Bella number 2' and a small Bellas scarf.
"Wow! Oh my God, you guys!" Beca said.
"It's such a shame she'll grow up, this is such a cute outfit!" Chloe said as Beca handed her the shirt and the scarf.
"Oh! And we also have something for Charlotte." Aubrey announced, giving the little brunette a small gift.
Charlotte grinned, ripping the wrapping paper and holding a shirt.
"It says 'I'm the big sister'." Aubrey explain to the girl.
"Wow! Thanks Aunt Aubee!" Charlotte said, standing up and hugging her aunt.
"You're welcome. You can wear it when Sophie is born." Aubrey said.
Charlotte grinned and ran over to her mothers to show them.
Beca smiled and she was glad Aubrey and Stacie remembered to give her something, they knew even though Charlotte had been super excited about getting a sister, she might get jealous some time.
After their baby shower, Aubrey, Stacie and some of the Bellas and the two girls' mothers and Chloe's sister helped them clean up. Zoe tried to put Charlotte down for a nap.
Chloe, of course, barely lifted a finger. She only got up to go to the bathroom and to get a glass of water. Otherwise, she was sitting on the couch the whole time.
By the time Charlotte woke up, it was dinner time so Beca and Aubrey went out to buy groceries to make dinner, they invited Chloe's parents, Zoe and her family, Beca's mother and Aubrey and Stacie for dinner. Their dining room wasn't that big but they were gonna set tables in the backyard so that everybody could eat.
Chloe hummed, reading a book. The same book she'd been reading for about two weeks now. She had one hand on her belly, feeling as Sophie would kick sometimes.
"Mamma!" Charlotte exclaimed had and sat beside her mother. "Hi Sophie!"
Chloe smiled.
"Hey sweetie." Chloe said. "Did you know grandma, grandpa, nana, aunt Aubrey, aunt Stacie and aunt Zoe are gonna have dinner with us?"
"Is there enough food, mamma?" Charlotte asked worriedly.
"Yes. Mommy and aunt Aubrey went to the store to get a lot of food. I'm pretty sure they'll want your help cooking, since you're such an awesome chef." Chloe said.
Charlotte smiled proudly.
"I'm gonna help." She said.
"Charlotte, you're up! Wanna go play in the backyard?" Lily came in and asked, excited. "Mom went out to pick up papa and Klaus."
"Okay." Charlotte said, jumping out of the couch and running with Lily to the backyard.
Chloe chuckled and continued reading her book until Aubrey and Beca got home. The two decided to make spaghetti with red sauce, so they bought a bunch of it.
Stacie offered to help Aubrey make it, eventually Lily and Charlotte joined them, so Beca could be with her wife and just relax for a while.
"Whoa. Never had so many people doing stuff for me." Chloe said.
"Me neither." Beca chuckled. "But it's nice to be a little spoiled sometimes."
Soon, Chloe's parents and Beca's mother joined them in the living room, claiming the tables in the backyard were ready and now Zoe and Thomas were just getting the silverware and napkins.
After Zoe, Thomas and Klaus joined them, they were all talking, Chloe had to resist the urge to go to the kitchen to see if everything was alright. Beca had reassure her that Aubrey and Stacie knew what they were doing, so Chloe relaxed.
"Mommy! Mamma! Look!" Charlotte came running in, holding two oranges against her chest. She stood before her mothers and put her hands on her hips and stood proudly. "I have boobs!"
The adults laughed lovingly at the child's cuteness.
"Oh, I see." Beca said.
"They're not soft." Charlotte said, pouting.
"Don't worry, sweetie, when you're older, you'll get soft boobs." Chloe said.
"Like mommy's?" Charlotte asked.
Chloe chuckled.
"Why are you so obsessed with mommy's boobs, sweetheart?" Chloe asked.
Charlotte shrugged.
"They're pretty." Charlotte said and approached Beca. "And they're soft."
Beca wasn't expecting her daughter to reach out and pat her left boob before squeezing it. That's when Chloe, while trying to stop laughing, pulled her away gently.
"Honey, remember what I said about grabbing people's boobs?" Beca asked, her whole face becoming super red.
"Yes, mommy but you said nothing about grabbing your boobs." Charlotte explained.
Beca went silent.
"Well honey, that applies to mommy's boobs too." Chloe said. "Now why don't you go back to the kitchen to see if your aunts need help?"
"Okay." Charlotte skipped over to the kitchen.
Chloe turned to Beca and the brunette was still blushing deeply and the adults were still laughing softly at Charlotte's antics.
Chloe chuckled as she saw Beca was still blushing and kissed her cheek.
"Guys! Dinner is ready!" Aubrey announced.
