Moments Like These (Bechloe)

Chapter 8

"What are you doing?" Chloe asked when Beca reached in her jacket pocket Chloe was still wearing.

"Getting this." She held up the ten dollar bill with a goofy grin. "I lost a bet to Emily."

Chloe nodded with a small laugh and Beca walked over to the younger girl to hand her the cash.

"Thanks, Bec," she smiled, sticking the bill in the back pocket of her jeans before running up to jump on Benji's back.

Beca watched her two friends with a small smile, laughing when Benji almost fell when the girl jumped on his back without warning. The two of them laughed when they got situated and he started turning in circles.

"Hey," she heard and turned to look beside her to find Chloe with her cute smile.

"Hi," Beca replied as they stopped in the middle of the park they had decided on running off to.

There was green grass that didn't even look green due to how dark it was outside. There was a jungle Jim with a slide off to the side and a few benches sat around the large park. Stacie, Aubrey, and Jesse were all running around like little kids, the last two seemed to be flirting.

"How are you and your family doing with your grandma's passing?" Beca carefully asked and the redhead shrugged.

"Still the same," she said not really wanting to continue on her loss even if it was Beca she was talking to about it. "I actually wanted to ask you about what happened earlier with your dad."

Beca looked down at her feet and inhaled. "My dad and I haven't been on the best of terms lately and we're both stubborn as hell so I guess it's just going to have to run its course and work itself out."

"I'm really sorry to hear that," Chloe said looking down at the younger girl. "Can I ask about your mom?"

At the mention of her mom, Beca shot her head up and stared into blue eyes before shaking her head. "I'd rather not talk about it right now."

"That's okay, but I'm always here if you ever decide you want to," Chloe smiled and Beca wrapped her arms around the taller girl's torso, Chloe's arms immediately going around Beca.

"Thank you," Beca whispered and then smirked when she pulled back to look at the other woman. "You're right; I really do smell good."

Chloe's mouth dropped with a smile and shook her head before playfully rolling her eyes. "Wow, Beca you really are egotistical."

Beca just laughed and pulled away from the hug completely. "You're the one who started it," she laughed and playfully pushed the other girl. "You're a loser."

Chloe smirked before saying, "You don't know how fast I am, Mitchell."

The brunette's smile turned into an even bigger smile and began running away from the older student.

"Are you sure about that?" she called out and only seconds later, Chloe had brought the both of them to the ground laughing as they landed on the grass, Chloe on top of the soccer player.

"What was that you were saying?" Chloe whispered with a smirk as she looked down at the younger girl's lips. "I didn't quite get it."

Beca didn't say anything but just looked from Chloe's lips to her eyes. The redhead's arms were beside of Beca's head attempting to hold her weight until she started leaning down and by then, the two were chest to chest. A piece of paper probably wouldn't even be able to slip between them.

"Do it," Beca whispered as she looked into the blue eyes she loved so much. Chloe couldn't help but instinctively lick her lips before pulling her bottom lip between her teeth as her eyes didn't leave the other girl's lips.
