The Bully

"You feeling better?" Chloe asked. It was a little later and they were sitting on Chloe's bed, chatting.

"Yeah." Beca replied. "Sorry I threw up on you."

"It's fine." Chloe laughed a little. "Can I talk to you about something?"

"What is it?" Beca asked.

"Do you ever, I don't know, want to have sex?" Chloe asked.

"What?!" Beca asked.

"Do you want to-"

"I got it the first time." Beca interrupted.

"It's just, we've been dating for a year now." Chloe said.

"I know, Chlo." Beca said. "I just, haven't really thought about it."

"Well, think about it with me right now." Chloe said. "Positives and negatives."

"Chlo-"

"Come on Becs." Chloe whined.

"What is up with you?" Beca asked, laughing a little at Chloe desperation.

"You're so hot." Chloe confessed. "How about you do me and then you can stay a virgin, technically. Is that how it works?"

Beca laughed. "Why are you so desperate?"

"I just am." Chloe said. "I'm a teenager!"

"I'll think about it." Beca said.

"It's just every time I look at you I imagine how hot you'd look naked and then I imagine how good it would feel if you-"

"Chlo, stop. You're starting to sweat." Beca laughed.

"Sorry." Chloe laughed. "You want to stay the night?"

"Um okay." Beca replied with a smile. "Let me just call my sister."

"Is that why you threw up?" Chloe asked out of the blue.

"What?" Beca said, confused.

"Is it because you were afraid to 'do it'?"  Chloe asked.

"Yeah." Beca sighed. "It's not you, it's just that I'm scared."

"That's okay." Chloe said. "I'll wait as long as you want me to."

"Really?" Beca asked.

"Really." Chloe confirmed with a smile.

A few days later, at school, Beca and Chloe were eating lunch when the secretary came into the lunchroom.

"Can I have Chloe Beale to the office please." She said.

Beca and Chloe looked at each other. Chloe shrugged. She had no idea why she was going to the office.

When she got to the office, everyone gave her a sympathetic smile.

"Why am I here?" Chloe asked.

"Your moms were in an accident this morning." The secretary said.

"What?!" Chloe asked. "Are they okay?"

"They're in the hospital. Your father has volunteered to pick you up from school." She explained.

Chloe didn't feel like arguing, so she left in tears. She arrived back in the lunchroom and sat next to Beca.

"What happened?" Beca asked, noticing her girlfriend's red eyes.

"My moms were in an accident." Chloe said. "My 'dad' is picking me up. I don't want anything to do with him! Why does he keep showing up?!"

"Calm down, Chlo." Beca said, rubbing the redhead's back.  "It's going to be okay."
