She's The Boss ✔️

Chapter 4

The next morning Beca would wake up to the light shining through the blinds into the bedroom. She'd look around the room remembering that the girl went home and didn't stay the night this time. Beca would put some comfy clothes on walking through to her kitchen where she'd pour herself a coffee.

Her phone would start ringing next to her on top of the counter showing Chloe's name as she'd sip her coffee. Placing down her mug she'd answer the phone call putting it on speaker as she'd lean across the kitchen counter.

"Morning boss", Beca would grumble picking her coffee back up.

"Good morning, I hope you're not feeling too hungover", Chloe would answer on the other end of the call.

"Uhm.. it depends on what you are about to ask me to do", Beca would smirk looking down at her phone as a message would come through from the girl she slept with last night. Beca would roll her eyes before looking at the message deciding to then reply.

"The record label want to get you in to start coming up with ideas for your first single and show you around the recording booths and writing rooms, as well as meet the team you'll be working with", Chloe would list off.

"Yeah that's fine, I can be ready in an hour", Beca would be biting her lip as she'd be reading the flirty messages from the same girl.

"Okay, I'll send a cab over and meet you there"

"Wait why aren't you coming with me? We can pick you up on the way like normal?", Beca would furrow her eyebrows focusing back on the conversation and ignoring the incoming message.

"Oh I'm uhh.. I'm not actually at home", there was a small pause as Beca would be shocked, "I'll explain later, see you in an hour. Don't be late Mitchell!", Chloe would hang up the phone with a smirk not letting Beca answer back to her.

...

An hour later Beca would pull up outside the front of a tall building. She'd open the door of the cab stepping onto the sidewalk and would look up at how tall the building was.

Holy shit!

She'd take a deep breath before walking inside the building where she'd see Chloe waiting by the elevators smiling down at her phone.

"Hey Beale!", she'd walk over to her and would smile at Chloe when she'd look up at her.

"Hey, good you're not late", she'd put her phone in her bag pressing the button for the elevator.

"So when you gonna spill the gossip about last night then? Where did you go?", Beca would try and hide the slight jealous feeling she had by smirking as the two of them would step into the empty elevator.

"Well while you and Jesse was off chatting up those girls which I assume you then took home", Chloe would glance over waiting for Beca to confirm her suspicions.

Beca would smirk again looking at the ground confirming what Chloe said. Trying to hide her disappointment Chloe would continue with a smile, "I met this guy at the bar when I was ordering a drink and we just hit it off. He's really sweet and funny and so cute, we had a couple of drinks and then we got a cab back to his and just fell asleep talking"

"You fell asleep... talking?", Beca would raise her eyebrow glancing over at Chloe.

"Yeah I didn't sleep with him Beca, I'm not like y-", Chloe would stop herself from finishing the sentence as the doors would open on their floor.

"Gee thanks Chlo, never knew you thought that about me", Beca would mumble loud enough for Chloe to hear as she'd walk out of the elevator and over to the reception desk in front of her.

...

The next couple of hours Beca would meet her new team who were going to help her record and eventually release her album. Chloe would keep herself away from Beca after annoying her earlier but would find company in Tom who had been constantly texting her since she left that morning.

As they'd be driving back to Beca's apartment, Chloe would be trying to fill the awkward silence that was between them.

"Are you doing much tonight Becs?", Chloe would turn to face her, finding Beca staring out the window.

"Nope, nothing planned", Beca would continue to look out the window being blunt with Chloe.

"Come on Beca, I'm sorry for what I said earlier I didn't mean it in a bad way"

"Well what did you mean then Chloe?", she'd look over at her now for the first time.

"I just- I meant it-", Chloe would sigh looking down at her hands sat on her lap. "I meant it in a way that you find it easy to sleep with someone and not talk to them every again", she'd look back up at her again, "I can't do that"

Beca would nod at her not showing any emotion on her face. "So you really like this Tom guy?", she'd feel herself wanting Chloe to say no but would be confused as to why.

"Yeah", Chloe would continue looking into Beca's eyes deep down wanting her to show any signs of liking her back.

Beca would clear her throat running a hand through her hair as she'd look out the window noticing they were outside her apartment. "Well, I'm happy for you.. You deserve to be happy Chlo", she'd open the cab door looking back at Chloe before stepping out. "I'll speak to you later"

Beca would walk over to the elevator and would spend the ride up to the floor of her apartment trying to calm down the jealousy in her with Chloe and Tom. She'd shake her head mumbling to herself as the door of the elevator would open, "Stop thinking about her like that Mitchell"
