Call Me Crazy (A Bechloe Fanfiction)

Chapter 5

***2 weeks later****

Chloe woke up realizing this would be her last week at the psychiatric ward, and she immediately called Beca in her excitement. "Guess what!" She asked excitedly.

"What?" Beca asked, smiling like an idiot at how cute she was.

"It's my last week here! I finally get to leave on Friday!"

"I'm so excited for you, Chlo!" Beca said. "I'm coming in about an hour and then we can hang out." Chloe didn't even consider it therapy anymore, they just hung out like best friends would. There was still the underlying crush she had on her, though.

"Ok, see you then!" Chloe replied.

She got ready and put on a pair of white skinny jeans and a black top. She had wanted to wear a dress but she felt like it was too fancy. Beca came a few minutes later and knocked on her door. "Hey!"

"Hey Becs," Chloe replied with a smile. She was so happy to see the tiny brunette that her heart almost exploded with joy.

"I got you a little something as a congrats gift," Beca said, handing her a small gift bag.

"Aw Becs, you didn't have to get me anything," Chloe said, taking the bag and looking inside. "Pink Mac lipstick? Oh my gosh Beca you're so sweet," Chloe said, pulling the tiny girl into a hug. "Thank you."

"You're welcome, Chlo! I had a feeling pink was your favorite."

"You were right," Chloe said with a laugh. "Ugh I'm so stressed."

"Why?" Beca asked sympathetically.

"I dropped out of school after I got admitted to the hospital and now I have nowhere to go after I get out of here. I really don't want to go live with my parents again because they'll just worry about me all the time. That's the reason I decided to go to law school."

"Move in with me!" Beca said almost too enthusiastically. "I've been looking for a roommate for a month now and you're like my best friend."

"Seriously? That would be great!" Chloe said. "My parents live like 2 hours away and I was really hoping I could stay around here so you could still be my psychiatrist."

"About that, the hospital asked if I could stay working here instead of taking individual patients."

"Oh...will I have to get a new psychiatrist?"

"No, as soon as you get out of here, you don't have to have one anymore, but I'll always be here if you need me too."

"Thanks, Becs," Chloe replied. "Hey do you have family around here?"

"Nope, my mom is in Chicago and I'm not close with my dad. He left me and my mom and then he moved to Georgia. The only reason I'm here is because I was forced to go to college here and then I got really attached to everything here and I can't leave."

"Aww that's sweet. I'm so sorry about your parents."

"It's ok," Beca said with a small smile. It really was hard for her sometimes, but Chloe was always there to cheer her up. "So I heard a little bit about your family but not much."

"Well it's always been me, my sister, and my parents, and we were so close until I got diagnosed. Then my parents started worrying about me all the time and my sister and I grew further and further apart. I remember if I had an episode or even just a bad day, my mom would lay in bed and cry for 2 days. That's part of the reason I left, I was sick of being a burden to them."

"Aww Chloe that's awful, I'm so sorry," Beca said.

"My sister goes to school ten minutes away from here but she hasn't visited and it makes me so sad. I love her so much and I want to show her that I'm fine and I can be normal."

"I'll call her and tell her to come!" Beca said.

"You would do that for me?" Chloe asked excitedly.

"Of course, what's her number?"

"395-053-4920."

Beca dialed the number and smiled when she got a response. "Hi, I'm Beca, I'm your sister's psychiatrist."

"Oh....I'm Allie, is she ok?"

"She's fine, she just really misses you. Could you maybe come to visit today?"

"Umm yeah, I have class in an hour but I can come at 4:30."

"Ok, thanks so much, she really appreciates it."

"No problem, see you then," Allie said before hanging up.

Beca smiled at Chloe. "She's coming at 4:30."

"Ok," Chloe replied. "Thanks so much Becs, I really appreciate it."

"No problem," Beca replied excitedly. Not only was she excited for Chloe's sister to visit, but she was also happy Chloe called her Becs. It made her so glad to see Chloe finally comfortable and happy around her. She desperately wanted to confess all her feelings, but she couldn't just yet. She didn't even know if Chloe liked girls, so she decided not say anything until she knew Chloe wouldn't get afraid and run from her. Beca felt blessed to have Chloe even as a friend, and she didn't want to jeopardize that.

"I'm so nervous, what if she doesn't want to talk to me or something?" Chloe asked anxiously.

"Chlo, she's your sister, it'll be fine," Beca replied reassuringly. "Just take deep breaths and you'll be fine. Do you need a hug?"

Chloe nodded and wrapped her arms around Beca. She was so grateful to have such a great friend in her life, but she wasn't sure how to tell how to tell her that she wanted to be more than friends, and that was the hardest thing for her.

"Alright Chlo, I have to run some errands but I'll be back at four!" Beca smiled at the blonde. "Call me if you need anything? Ok?"

"Of course, Becs, I'll see you soon!" Chloe said happily. She was so happy Beca was coming back to be with her while her sister visited.
