They were finally back in LA, on their way home from the airport. James and Taylor flew to Hawaii from LA so they were going to stay with Chloe and Beca for the night before catching their flight back out to Georgia the next day.
"Is she sleeping?" Beca asked quietly as she looked in her rearview mirror.
"Yeah." Taylor whispered, smiling at Hailee who was sat between the her and James, using the teenager's arm as a pillow. It was just past midnight so they were all tired, pining for bed, especially James and Taylor who had to be back at the airport at 6am for their next flight.
The 11 year old groaned as she woke up, rubbing her eye. "My head hurts." She whined.
"Aw honey, we'll be home soon." Chloe turned around in her seat to look at her daughter, placing a hand on the girl's knee.
"Here take a drink." James said softly as he handed his bottle of water to his niece and she took a drink from it.
"Try and stay awake so you can say goodbye to James and Taylor tonight because you won't see them again before they leave." Beca added just as they stopped at the traffic lights.
"Mhm." Hailee mumbled tiredly.
"Here we go with the big dramatic goodbye." Beca rolled her eyes playfully watching Hailee wrap her legs around her uncle as he lifted her up.
The 11 year old had already said goodbye to Taylor which had taken long enough.
"Carry me to bed, uncle JJ." The girl asked in a small voice.
"You didn't even want to hug me goodbye, you just wanted me to carry you to bed!" James protested jokingly.
"She's a 'wee chancer' as my grandpa would say." Beca laughed, poking Hailee in the back. The 24 year old talked about her Scottish grandfather (John's father) a lot but Chloe and Hailee were still yet to meet him.
James chuckled before he made his way upstairs with his niece still attached to him.
Hailee yawned as she unhooked her legs from James as they entered her bedroom.
"Right give me one last hug before I go to bed." James said, pulling the 11 year old in for a tight hug before kissing the top of her head.
"Night." Hailee said quietly into his shirt.
"Goodnight sweetheart, I love you and I'll see you soon okay?" James said softly and the 11 year old pulled away, smiling tiredly up at him.
In the next room, Beca and Chloe had just quickly gotten changed and then climbed into bed.
"I'll drop them off at the airport." The redhead said as she snuggled up to her fiancée who was setting an alarm on her phone.
"I'll do it, it's fine." Beca chuckled, placing her phone on her nightstand before turning off the lamp.
"Are you sure? You drove us home from the airport." Chloe lowered her voice once the lights went out, reaching forward to drape her arm across Beca's abdomen.
"I slept on the plane though, you didn't." Beca whispered back, only slightly being able to make out Chloe's face in the darkness. "Just go to sleep and don't worry about it okay?" The brunette laughed quietly, allowing her head to sink into her pillow.
"I love you." Chloe sighed contently as she relaxed, letting her heavy eyelids finally close.
"I love you too." Beca only managed to mumble in return before she fell asleep.
Chloe woke up at around 10am the next morning feeling pretty refreshed. She left Beca sleeping knowing she only got home a couple of hours ago. The redhead made her way downstairs, hearing the TV on as she reached the foot of the stairs figuring that Hailee was already up.
