(Chloe's POV)

I woke up to my wife laying next to me. I smiled at the beautiful brunette, her hair was up in a bun, she had no makeup on, and she was wearing a huge T-shirt. Her breathing was slow and rhythmic, she would occasionally scrunch her nose or twitch her lip, telling me she was dreaming. I moved a stray strand of hair behind her ear and took in a deep breath before getting out of bed and making my way to the kitchen. Aubrey was already there drinking coffee. "Morning Bree, did you sleep well?"

"Just fine, how did you and the little troll sleep?" Aubrey asked without looking up from her magazine. 

I rolled my eyes and grabbed my coffee mug. "Beca and I slept just fine, thanks." I poured myself some coffee and added creamer, and a few sugars. "You know, I have never made fun of any of your boyfriends, and you've dated some weird guys."

"Like who?" Aubrey got defensive and finally looked up from this month's Vogue. 

"Like Ronny? He was the biggest nerd. He brought over fucking bugs! Who just randomly collects bugs and keeps them in jars?" I laughed. "And more importantly, who thinks it's a good idea to bring said bugs over to their girlfriends apartment?" 

"Ronny was interested in entomology! He just figured since I'm a biology major that I'd be interested too." Aubrey shrugged.

"Were you?" I sipped my coffee. Aubrey just pursed her lips and went back to reading her magazine. "Exactly! Now what is it about Beca that makes you dislike her so much?"

"She's just very... alternative. She has those horrible ear monstrosities, a bunch of tattoos, and her attitude is just terrible." Aubrey explained. "It's like absolutely everything I say, I get a sarcastic comment or she fights me on it."

"Well, maybe if you would just be a little more open to change you wouldn't find her to be so argumentative, but more helpful." I suggested. 

Aubrey gave me a pointed glare and I knew I crossed the line. I took a step back and ended up bumping into Beca. I turned around to see the sleep shorty fazed from our collision. I placed my hands on either one of her shoulders and smiled. "Hey there cutie patootie."

"Oh my God, please never call me that again." Beca chuckled. Beca grabbed her coffee mug and poured her coffee, leaving it black. "What's up, Aubrey?" Aubrey just motioned to her magazine and Beca gave me an irritated look. "How are you, babe?"

"I'm fine." I nodded. "You seem to be in an okay mood this morning, usually when you wake up this early you're annoyed and grumpy."

"How do you know her usual wake up moods?" Aubrey butt in. "How long have you two been at it to know your usual wake up patterns?"

"If I'm honest, we kind of started everything the afternoon of the activities fair." I admitted. "I saw her in the showers and we kind of... just did it? That's how I convinced her to audition for the Bella's" I smiled at Beca and she gave me a shy grin. 

"Dude, what the fuck? You just randomly see some chick in the showers and decide to do it with her?" Aubrey looked so confused. "And yet you make fun of Ronny?"

"Who's Ronny?" Beca asked.

I waved him off "Some weird bug kid."

"I'd make fun of him too." Beca agreed. "Seriously, who would be obsessed with bugs?"

"He was into entomology!" Aubrey snapped. "You both have bug tattoos, why the hell are you judging?"

"Tattoos are different than actual bugs." Beca pointed out. "I'm actually really confused on what's going on here, if I'm honest. I feel like I barged in on a weird conversation and now I'm getting the backlash."

"Aubrey and I were just discussing weird people we've dated in the past." I lied. 

"Oh?" Beca looked intrigued. "Who's the weirdest person you've dated, Chlo?"

"Umm... I dated this girl in my freshman year of high school. She was really into stuffed animals. I thought it was just like a cute little collection, but when I went to her house one time I found out that she actually spoke to them and treated them like people." I recalled. "It was so weird, like she had a mental break down when I accidentally sat on one. What about you, Bree?"

"Believe it or not, but Ronny the bug guy is not the weirdest relationship I had." Aubrey said. "I dated a guy my sophomore year of college, he was obsessed with clowns. Like he wanted to be a clown in the circus. One time he sent me a video of him working a kids birthday party, and I nearly cried. Clowns freak the shit out of me. Who's the weirdest person you've dated Beca?"

Beca was silent for a while. "If I'm honest Chloe's the closest thing I ever had to a girlfriend or boyfriend, and even that wasn't official until we got married. I never really dated anyone. I just had friends with benefits relationships, so I guess the weirdest person I have ever had one of those with was this guy named Jarred? He had a weird foot fetish."

"A foot fetish?" Aubrey was suddenly interested in something Beca was saying. "What do you mean a foot fetish?"

"You know, like he got turned on by my feet for some reason. I don't know why he liked my size sevens more than my tits, but he did. He use to like to kiss them, and massage them, not that I really minded the free foot massages, but the rest of it was just... odd." Beca shook her head. "He would ask me to send pics, and in other benefit relationships I had, that would mean nudes, but nope. With him it was pictures of my feet. I ended whatever we had going on after a few weeks." Beca pressed her lips together. "So yeah, that's my weird relationship."

"You win." I giggled. "You totally win."

"Yeah, that's just fucking weird." Aubrey agreed. "Gold medal goes to Mitchell."

Beca made a weird face and leaned into me. "Though I must admit, Mrs. Mitchell, you are a little bit of a weirdo yourself."

"Is that so?" I said as I wrapped my arm around the smaller girl.

Beca nodded "Yeah, you're a total weirdo. I think that's why I married you." Beca booped my nose, finished her coffee and went back into the bedroom. 

"Where the hell did that Beca come from, and what happened to the asshole I see at rehearsals?" Aubrey was astonished.

"I told you she's different around me!" I smirked. "You have to admit, this Beca is a pretty cool chick."

"I could live with her." Aubrey shrugged. "Just make sure sarcastic Beca stays in her lane, otherwise we may just have to kick her out, married to you or not."

I finished my coffee with a smile on my face. As I went back into my room, I noticed that Beca wasn't anywhere to be found. The door shut behind me, and I turned around to see a naked Beca locking the door. I bit my lip at the sight of her. She gave me a seductive look and with a raspy voice she said "We haven't done really anything since we got married, and since we can't go on a honeymoon, I say we make the most of this free weekend while we can, don't you?"
