Author's POV

2 weeks have passed and Chloe is still in her coma. "Hey, were you here last night?", Emily asked as they walked into the room. "Yeah, I had a pair of change so I thought I'd keep her company", Beca replied before taking a seat next to the hospital bed while Chloe laid there peacefully. "Ah, Beca! You're a little late today", a middle-aged woman walked in. "Traffic, uh, this is my friends, guys, this is Chloe's nurse, Mrs. Forman. How is she doing?", Beca stood up. "She's doing alright so far", Forman smiled. Beca sat down and held Chloe's hand while the nurse did her daily check-up. Beca observed every step in silence until she felt a small but tight squeeze on her hand. At first. she thought her mind was playing tricks until she felt it again. "She squeezed my hand", Beca's eyes widened. "What?", Emily walked to her. "She did. I swear!", the brunette leaned towards her girlfriend and run her hand through her hair. "Chloe baby, I'm right here baby, right here", she kissed her hand. "B-beca", Chloe's small voice filled the room as her eyes slowly flutter open. "I'm here baby, I'm here", Beca's eyes teared up. Nurse Forman went out to get the doctor before they follow the procedure.

"Hey, you", Beca smiled while holding Chloe's hand. "How are you feeling, my love?", she asked. "Weird, what happened?", Chloe replied. "You uh- you got into an accident, on the night of the masquerade", she said. "And how long was I- you know?", Chloe asked. "About two weeks", Beca told her. "How long have you been here?", she added. "About two weeks", the brunette smiled. "Now, two weeks is a long time", Beca smiled as she leaned in to kiss the redhead. Their lips crashed together as they found a home in each other's mouth, Beca smiled into the kiss as she ran her hand through her hair. They hurriedly pulled away when someone walked in and cleared their throats. "God, give us a break, it's been 2 weeks", Beca said when she saw Emily. "Hi, Miss Beale!", Emily smiled, making both Beca and Chloe confused. "We thought we'd pay you a visit even though I told them you need to rest", Emily's eyes widened as she walked to Chloe, and a bunch of her classmates showed up behind her. Beca quickly let Chloe's hand go and stood up. "Kids! I missed you guys, what are you doing here!?", Chloe smiled. "Miss Lance thought it'd be nice to kind of surprise you", Kara smiled. "Lance is here?", Beca looked at Kara. "Yeah, she's on her way up. Oh and uh- Beca, I was wondering, this weekend if you-", she moved slowly towards Beca with a small smirk on her face before Chloe cut her off. "Beca, will you please help me with my pillow, it's hurting my head", Chloe said, sternly. "Yes ma'am", she smiled and ran to Chloe. "Heard the girl's up", Lance walked in with a bouquet. "Hey! How are you feeling?", she approached Chloe.

"A little weird", Chloe chuckled. Lance walked to the side of the bed and asked Beca to stand up from her seat. "Get up", she ordered. "I'm not gonna do that, sorry", Beca said not making eye contact with her and stared at her phone. "Mitchell, get up and go take your friends to the cafe downstairs", Lance told her and everyone just watched their interaction. "I don't feel like it", Beca replied, feeding more and more into her anger. Kara broke the silence, "We'll wait downstairs", she said and walked out with her friends. Lance 'lightly' slap her shoulder from the back making her stand up. "Okay, that's enough both of you", Chloe said because she knows Beca won't let that girl get away with it. They both stared into each other's eyes until they heard Chloe winced in pain. Beca rushed to Chloe's side, "What's wrong?", she asked before Lance held Chloe's hand and asked the same thing. "I'm fine, my hand had cramps", Chloe explained. "Oh I see, Beca go stand with Emily, I helped Chloe a lot this past two weeks so it's better if I stay here", Lance explained. "Oh really?", Beca walked to Emily and crossed her arms. "Yeah, for your information, when Miss Beale is in a coma, I came and visit her every day", she said. "That's so nice of you, Miss Lance", Beca held back her laughter. "Excuse me, kids, I have to do her daily checkup", Nurse Forman walked in. "Oh, who's this?", she looked at Lance. "This is Miss Beale's coworker, Miss Lance, she came to visit Chloe every day this past two weeks", Beca laughed. "Well, nice to meet ya. Chloe, honey, Chris is here with your mom", she said. "Thank you", Chloe smiled.

"Hey, mom", Chloe smiled when she walked in with Chris. "Hi, sweetheart, you're feeling better?", Cindy asked. "Thankfully, yes", Chloe said. "This is my co-worker from school", Chloe looked at Lance who stood up. "Mrs. Beale, it's good to meet you", she smiled. "You too, Beca, Emily, you kids had lunch right?", she asked. "Not yet", Emily replied. "I can get you lunch if you want, I feel more useful than Chloe's girlfriend", she joked and laughed. "Chloe's girlfriend?", Beca asked. "I mean, when your girl is up from a 2 weeks coma, you should be the first thing she sees. Right? And I've been by Chloe's side for this past 2 weeks but I haven't seen her at all", she chuckled. Beca quickly stood up ready to throw a fit before Chris stopped her. "Uh- Miss Lance, it's been a pleasure to meet you, but if you don't mind, I would like to have some family time with my daughter", Cindy smiled. "Well, yes, obviously, I'll just grab these two kids and be out of your way", Lance smiled. "No no, they're fine, they're my ride home", Cindy said. "Oh, I can drop you off if you want", Lance offered. "No, thank you very much. These kids are like my daughter", she smiled. "Bye, Miss Lance", Beca sang out with a smug as she walked out in defeat. "God, one more second with that woman, I can turn into a straight man", Beca groaned as she walked to Chloe. "Oh, quit it", Chloe shook her head. "Thank you, Cindy, for saving all of us. The society owes you one", Beca bowed down to her making her laugh.
