Chapter 5: Healing
It's been almost 2 weeks after Chloe came home from hospital and Beca never leaves Chloe's side ever literally ever as she had swore to herself. Chloe has been on her meditations because apparently that drugs were highly dangerous and it was miracle Chloe is still alive, that drugs leaves some side effects behind though. As doctor said Chloe wouldn't make a day without her medicines.
"Beca...becs...baby...bebe..." Chloe gives Beca lots of variations in expression from whine to pout.
"No. Don't ... look at me like that. I said NO." Beca says knowing where is Chloe going with her little act.
"But Beca it's almost a 2 weeks I haven't been outside this room let alone outside this house. Are you planning on keeping me hostage forever?"Chloe says back with irritation filled in voice.
Beca look back at her wife who is currently looking out from the window. She knows that she is being overprotective towards her wife. Doctor said to himself that Chloe can work as normal person as long as she takes her medicines. She sighs lightly make her way behind Chloe she stretch her hand and placed on her waist as Chloe slaps her hand.
"Chlo?" Beca rubs her stinging hand while Chloe chose to remain silent.
"Okay." Beca says as she once again place her hands on her wife's waist from behind luckily not being slapped again. "We'll go tomorrow to your favorite park and we can watch movie if you want or we can go for dinner to that fancy restaurant you are dying to go? What do you say, dear?" Beca place her chin on Chloe's shoulder wrapping her arms tightly to her waist. As soon as words left from Beca's mouth Chloe spins around to see if Beca is serious or not which results Beca to lose her balance slightly. "Really?"
"Of course baby. This is the least I can do for you. This could be our date, if you want to" Beca says putting her both hands on Chloe's shoulder.
"Oh thank you so much Becs. It would be totes our date." Chloe says with huge grin on her face.
"Your welcome Mrs. Mitchell. Now excuse me miss I have to go and plan a special date for my amazing wife." Beca replies while taking her phone from bedside table and winking at Chloe. She feels so content seeing her wife so genuinely happy after months even her work couldn't provide this feeling.
Chloe sequels and run towards her wardrobe quickly go through her clothes, drops some clothes on floor while doing so.
"Jeez women! Slow down. You gonna ruin my side of wardrobe" Beca says while checking her mails.
"It won't because it's already ruined. It never been neat from the start." Chloe says back without glancing at Beca.
"Meanie." Beca replies while stuck her tongue at Chloe though she forgot Chloe wasn't even looking at her.
"Beca... I can't find anything suitable for wear tomorrow. Please help me." Chloe finally looks at Beca who was engrossed in her laptop. Chloe huffs and take on of Beca's top balled it to throw at Beca's face to which Beca instantly replies as Chloe expected."Hey!DO you want to go date with bruised face wife?"
"It's just a piece of cloth, Beca. Don't be such a baby and help me here." Chloe replied back without moving from her spot.
"Ummm... whatever. Why don't you wear that blue dress that I bought you last Christmas?" Beca says nonchalantly.
"Because I already wore it at Sophie's wedding. Weren't you there with me?"Chloe replies in disbelief.
"Oh yeah so that black one" Beca says pointing at one dress which was buried under dozens of clothes.
"Seriously? That one I don't think so. Maybe we should go for shopping. I need new dress and you are coming with me. Tomorrow morning it's settled then." Before Beca could protest anything Chloe collects all her clothes and lazily put it back in wardrobe and hurried to bathroom. Beca just shook her head at her wife's antics.
The rest of the day passed by as usual other than an overly excited redhead. Beca was just happy to see this side of her wife again after long time. She feels like she is getting back at her college days.
...
...
Next morning, Beca woke up early. She rolled into side and look at Chloe.'How lucky am I to have this angle in my life.'
"Hey, morning..." Chloe says while stirred little without her eyes opening.
"Good morning, honey." Beca greet back placing a gentle kiss on Chloe's forehead.
"Mmmm..." Chloe quickly pulled her down and give a not-so-innocent kiss on lips which leaves certain brunette speechless.
"Wow.. someone's is in mood, I guess." Beca tease her wife knowing their are few chances of teasing Chloe beale.
"Hell NO. I know where are you going with promised me we are going for shopping. Maybe you'll get what you want after you sweep off your wife's feet." Chloe says pushing Beca off back. She climb from the bed and make a new line for bathroom before adding" Now get up you lazy ass."
"Aye aye captain." Beca makes an fake salute action and starts to making her ( their ) bed. She loves their morning playful banter.
Once Chloe re-enters from bathroom she sees her wife sleeping on perfectly made bed. She laughs at the adorable brunette that's how she got an idea. She quietly reach for drawer of bedside table and pick up the Bellas pitch pipe blows it as hard as she could."come on girls. Let's Wake up. Let's do this. Pick up the pace girl, pick up the pace." As soon as Beca heard the whistling and yelling, she jumps instinctively which leads her into landing on a floor on her butt. Not a soft landing. On the other hand Chloe fell on the floor laughing historically.
"It's not funny, beale." Beca yelled as she recovered from her traumatic experience. "You know that days are worst days of my life."
"That's not true besides your reaction is more hilarious. No other thing can wake you up like this." Chloe says in between her laughing fits.
" of course you think it's hilarious. You liked that blondzilla captain all riled up against 't you?" Beca glares at still laughing Chloe realising she is not calming any time soon Beca stomp at floor and disappeared into bathroom.
After a while Chloe shook her head against her wife's antics and help herself to preparing breakfast for both of them.
Once Beca and Chloe started their breakfast in usual light conversation."You make world's best pancakes. You know that right? "Beca says with mouthful of half chewed pancakes.
"Yeah. I've been told before." Chloe smirked."Their is another one on pan. Help yourself with it_" Chloe gets cut off by Beca. "I have world's best wife." Beca grin sheepishly. "Then wash the dishes. I'm going to change now. Don't Take too long. Remember we have to go for shopping." Chloe finishes her sentence. "Oh I take my word back." Beca mumbles into mouth. "I heard that."
When Beca enters into her bedroom after finishing her task all she can see is Chloe wearing sky blue short top and white skirt ending just above her knees. All Beca can think is wow just... wow.
"Take a photo I'm sure it'll last long." Chloe says glancing into Beca's reflection at mirror.
"Can't blame me. You are looking too... I can't even find right words for you." Beca says while making her way to Chloe stretch her arms behind Chloe and pulls her close.
"Come on now. Go get ready." Chloe says before relaxing into Beca's touch.
"You are becoming too bossy today. I'm rethinking about taking you on date." Beca tease her.
"You wouldn't dare." Chloe shove her off towards her wardrobe.
They were shopping for days okay maybe Beca is exaggerated it after all it's just few hours but well shopping was never Beca's forte and with some overly bubbly, enthusiastic women such as Chloe it gets worst. Chloe is dragging Beca all the shops possibly every shops which are present in town and if Chloe has more time she could drag around whole America's shopping center yeah Beca could never doubt that. Top of that Chloe drag her into grocery store insisting that they should buy groceries for this weekend. To which you think Beca didn't argue, you are wrong she did, didn't she?
( "why Chloe? For go sake today we are going for a date. 'Date' Chloe. Why we are in grocery store?" Beca air quoted the word date.
"We don't have to do it if you could able to bring every items in list that I gave you yesterday." Chloe marched into store.
"You could do it some other day."
"I don't think you will let me go outside of tiny room of our anytime soon and I want to eat exactly what I want this weekend Beca which is very minimal if I leave it to you." Chloe says with less playful but bitter at same time and Beca has her fair share of years experience to not argue further.)
Just remind Beca next time to not lock up her wife for very long duration.
