Beca had just had a Russian lit class and was on her way back to the Bella house when she saw Chloe lent against the tree, the tree meant a lot to both of them because that tree was where Chloe had asked Beca to be her girlfriend. now Chloe had her back against the tree, her knees hunched up and her head resting on them. Beca walked towards the redhead and stood there, her shadow causing Chloe to lift her head just enough for Beca to see that the redhead was crying. beca knew what had happened immediately but she wanted to make sure that her assumptions were correct. "She's gone isn't she." chloe just nodded and went back to crying. beca picked chloe up quite easily even though she was a fair bit taller, chloe had not eaten much since her mum fell ill.
beca placed chloe on the bed once she got into her room. the redhead promptly rolled over and buried her head in the pillows. Beca went into the kitchen and prepared hot chocolate with extra cream and marshmallows. she poked chloe lightly in her side and told her about the hot chocolate in her hand. Once chloe was sat up cross legged, silently sipping her hot chocolate, getting cream on her top lip in the meantime. "you got a little something there" Beca giggled, wiping the cream off her lip and onto her cheek. chloe giggled and said thank you, kissing beca on the lips gently. Chloe stopped crying and now they were both sat on the rug in becas room, cross legged, the comforting silence surrounding them as they just looked into each others eyes. "I love you becs" chloe said into her mug. "I will never get tired of hearing that, I love you too." beca was smiling a goofy grin, just like she did everytime chloe said those 4 words.
it was 3pm and the 2 had just sat in silence, lost in their own thoughts and the others eyes for an hour before chloe broke it by saying "you have music in 30 minutes" she smiled weakly as she said it. becas heart melting as she replied with "i am not leaving you for anything at the moment" booping chloes nose on the word you. Chloes nose scrunched up at the touch, making beca giggle. Chloe booped becas nose back and beca swatted her hand away like a fly, chloe giggled then yelled " I REALLY NEED A WEE" making beca jump out of her skin and then laugh until her side hurt. "go for a wee then"
When chloe was back beca was getting her shoes on"where are we going?" chloe asked, stepping towards her girlfriend. "ice cream because i am craving ice cream, duh" chloe smiled because it had to be her, of all people, to fall in love with a dork. The redhead slipped on her sandals and went out to meet beca in the car.
"i want this one please chlobird" beca whines as she follows the smirking redhead with a pot of Oreo ice cream. "of course cutie pie" chloe replied, shaking her head at her girlfriend, who was acting like a 3 year old. "ooh can we get chocolate sauce too?" beca grabbed a squeezy bottle of chocolate ice cream sauce as her little legs caught her up to the redhead. "yes becaboo, now come stick with the trolly or you will pick up the whole dessert isle" chloe stopped walking so that beca could catch up. chloe was right in a way because when beca did reach the trolly she was holding a cheesecake, 2 tubs of ice cream, 5 bottles of sauce, brownies, hot cross buns, and a gingerbread house as big as her. "babe...what is all this" chloe said, trying to control her laughter. she heard a muffled "comfort food" from behind the mountain of sweets. "oh becs...you silly goose. just put it in the trolley" once the food was in the trolley chloe attacked beca with a hug and kissed her forehead. beca tensed but then relaxed at the warmth"you are adorable by the way" chloe said as she walked away. "no. i am a badass" beca looked like a stroppy toddler who had no toys. "you are a cute badass" chloe grabbed becas hand and she felt the tiny brunette relax at her touch. beca didn't like hugs, or any human contact for that matter, but it was different with chloe. it always had been. chloe hoped to be becas future, she knew that beca loved her with all of her heart but chloe still felt bad when the tiny brunette tensed at the touch. if anyone else hugged beca she would either run away or hit them. she never meant to, it was just reflexes.
the two did not let go of each others hands until they had to pack the car. beca turned on the radio and titanium started blasting out of the speakers. beca and chloe looked at eachother and started laughing, they didn't stop laughing until the song stopped and car radio by 21 pilots started playing.
it was drawing near to midnight when chloe finally went to sleep. the 2 cried, snuggled and just made the other feel safe and loved. beca had fallen asleep on chloes lap an hour ago and chloe was just twirling her hair when she drifted off.
