Author's 1st Note: Ahhh! So sorry for the wait! This new job has kept me busy! xD

In return for taking so long I made the Epilogue much longer than any of my previous chapters. Hope you like the conclusion!

P.S. Shoutout to the 'Guest' who gave me the brilliant idea for this Epilogue. Who ever wrote the review, "Dude! Great story. Beca could totally use her first bonus or big check or contract to take Chloe to Hawaii. Thanks for writing." Please tell me who you are so I can credit you! You're the reason this Epilogue was written the way it was! :) Thanks for the idea!

"Oh, wow! This room is beautiful," Chloe observed, as she and Beca rolled their luggage into their hotel room. Beca pulled up next to her girlfriend and Chloe looked at her, "Excellent choice, Bec."

Beca smiled and slid her arm around the red head's waist, "Well, I wanted our first anniversary together to be special."

Chloe grinned and pulled Beca in for a tender kiss. They separated but Chloe kept her thumb on the brunette's chin. She stared lovingly into her eyes, "Thanks for bringing me to Hawaii."

It had been a year since they officially became couple. In that time, all the Bella girls graduated. A new comer, Emily Junk, took the reigns and now leads the next generation of Bellas. Beca worked her way up to finally becoming a Music Producer. She started as an intern at a big record label, but with her natural talent and some luck, she quickly moved up in the company. Chloe opened up her own little studio where she teaches under privileged kids how to sing. She considered being an exotic dancer, but Beca had a thing or two to say about that. Life had only gotten better since they got together.

Beca never forgot what Chloe had done for her a year ago. She chose to not only spend Christmas with the complicated DJ instead of her family in beautiful Hawaii, but she also spent her ticket money on a really expensive gift for Beca. Her selfless deeds were not going to go unappreciated. Beca worked hard and would take a portion of any income she received to put it into savings for their anniversary trip. She decided it was only fitting to finally take the red head to Hawaii.

They finished rolling their luggage inside and the two of them examined their room together.

The front door opened to the main room that was designed with a beautiful aqua and white color theme. Their queen sized bed was to the left of the room and to the right was an aqua couch with white pillows; a drawer with a flat screen on top stood beside it. Straight ahead was the balcony. The two stepped outside onto it and stared in awe of the gorgeous view of the beach.

"Wow," the ginger gawked, "This is amazing, Beca."

The brunette couldn't reply with words. She was stunned and gaped at the sight. She had never seen anything like this in person before. All she could do was nod in agreement.

After a few minutes of taking in the fantastic view, Beca and Chloe ventured back into the room and checked out their bathroom.

The beautiful white and beige bathroom had a elegant two sink, stone counter top, and an exquisite, clear glass shower stall. Beca smirked when a thought crossed her mind.

"Hm," she hummed, "That shower looks pretty spacious."

Chloe caught her mischievous tone and smirked back, "Oh, yeah?"

Beca nodded and acted surprised, "And look!" she pointed to the stall with enthusiasm, "It has a detachable shower head." She looked back at Chloe and raised her eyebrows up and down.

Chloe nudged her and laughed, "You're so bad."

Beca shrugged, "I try."

The couple unpacked their clothes and organized their belongings comfortably in the room. Their day had been fairly long. They took an evening flight that landed in Hawaii by nightfall. Beca had been planning the trip for months. Chloe had made Beca's Christmas special last year, so this year, the brunette wanted to return the favor. Plus it was also their one year anniversary.

Beca wasn't usually into girly things like this, but she couldn't help but secretly feel giddy about the whole thing. They had been together a whole year and the entire time spent with the red head had been truly amazing. Being with Chloe was the best relationship Beca ever had; not that she had many to compare it to, but being with Chloe just felt, right.

The same could be said for Chloe. The red head never thought she would love someone as much as she loved Beca. There was something about her that just drove the ginger crazy. She knew the younger woman was going to be special to her from the moment she first spotted the DJ at the activities fair; she just never imagined they'd be where they were today.

After unpacking everything, Beca collapsed onto the bed face down and spread herself out. She enjoyed the way she slightly sank in as the bed took in her frame.

"Oh my God, Chlo. This bed feels so good," she muttered.

Chloe was in the bathroom, organizing her beauty products on the sink counter. She giggle when she came out and saw Beca sprawled across the bed sheet. She leaned on the door frame and crossed her arms, "Tired already?"

Beca nodded against the sheet, "I really don't feel like moving."

Chloe sighed, "That's too bad," she innocently spoke, slowly approaching Beca. She carefully slid herself onto the bed and ran her hand up Beca's spine; sending a chill throughout the brunette's body, "I thought maybe we could–" she glided her hand back down, and leaned down next to her ear "Break in this new bed."

Beca felt her arousal rapidly growing within her, but just before Beca could turn around, the red head quickly stood up.

"But I guess since you're so tired, I'll just go–Ah!"

She yelped when she felt Beca's arms wrap around her waist and playfully pull her down onto the bed. Beca swiftly climbed on top of the red head and straddled her.

"You're trouble," Beca smirked.

Her voice was alluring and she leaned down to capture her girlfriend's lips into a heated kiss. Beca traced her bottom lip with her tongue and Chloe happily obliged; moaning as their tongues collided. The red head tangled her hands into Beca's hair and gripped tightly onto her locks as the brunette began to roll her hips against her center.

Chloe sighed when Beca sat up and teasingly started to unbutton the red head's blouse. When she finished the last button, she roughly pulled Chloe up and discarded her top. Chloe reciprocated the gesture and pulled off Beca's tank top.

A whimper escaped Chloe's mouth when the brunette attacked her neck. Beca new where all of Chloe's most sensitive areas were and payed very close attention too them. Chloe's breath hitched in her throat when Beca bit down on one of those particular spots. The red head clumsily attempted to unclasp Beca's bra strap but was unsuccessful. The brunette chuckled and sat up to remove it herself. After throwing it aside, she came back down and brought their lips back together.

As their kiss grew more intense, Beca didn't hesitate to slide her hand into Chloe's jeans. The DJ smirked against her girlfriend's lips when she felt how moist the fabric was.

"Already?" she snickered.

"I can't help it. My girlfriend is super hot," Chloe breathed.

Beca grinned, "Oh, she is huh?"

Chloe swiftly shifted them around so she was now on top. She bit her lip and playfully nodded,

"Mhmm..." she hummed, while running her hands down Beca's exposed skin, over her breasts and down her stomach.

Chloe brought her hands up and promptly took off her bra, exposing her succulent breasts. She leant down and began placing wet kisses down Beca's stomach. She reached the hem of the DJ's jeans and rapidly removed them. While she was up, Chloe took the opportunity to discard her own pants and underwear, leaving her fully naked.

The red head climbed back on top of her girlfriend and kissed the outside of her underwear, causing the brunette to jerk. Chloe giggled and reached up to wrap her fingers around the hem of her underwear. In one swift motion, she pulled them off and didn't hesitate to attached her mouth to Beca's womanhood.

"Fuck, Chlo..." Beca groaned. She instinctively grabbed a fistful of Chloe's gorgeous red hair as the ginger expertly maneuvered her tongue against her. As the pleasure grew inside Beca, she couldn't control her hips from bucking against Chloe's face. The red head knew Beca's climax was approaching and added to her pleasure by sliding a finger into her; enjoying the moan that escaped the DJ's lips when she did.

As Chloe continued to suck on the brunette's clit, she curled her finger within her; causing the younger woman to throw her head back and moan,

"Oh my God! Yes, Chloe, right there!"

Beca vigorously squirmed and writhed beneath her. The pressure inside her built faster and faster. The sounds in the room faded and her sight became blurred. She tightly shut her eyes and screamed her lover's name as her climax exploded within her. Chloe slowed down her pace, extending Beca's orgasm as much as she could.

While Beca caught her breath, Chloe made her way back up to the younger woman's face and gave her a loving kiss. Beca pulled Chloe impossibly closer to her, grabbing onto her hair while her other hand gripped onto the red head's lower back. Chloe gasped when Beca suddenly flipped them over and she was now on top.

The brunette tightened her legs around Chloe's thighs and held her in place. Chloe loved the devilish smirk that was plastered on her lover's face,

"Feeling dominant tonight?" she asked.

Beca kept her hold on the red head's legs and wrapped her hands around her wrists, securing them above the ginger's head.

She leant down and whispered, "Something like that."

Beca captured her lips, then continued to kiss her way pass Chloe's jawline, down to her neck. She spent sometime on the red head's sensitive skin and enjoyed the little sounds and whimpers she made.

The DJ moved from her neck and planted kisses down Chloe's body. She felt the red head's wrists shift just before she reached her womanhood. Beca tightened her grip and reminded her to remain still.

Beca teased her girlfriend by gliding her tongue down the side of her stomach and continuing down her inner thigh. When she reached a certain point, she was forced to let go of Chloe's wrists in order to keep going even further. When the red head took the freedom and placed her hands in Beca's hair, the brunette responded by grabbing her wrists again and slamming them down to her sides. Chloe looked at her confused.

"No touching," Beca commanded.

As much as Chloe didn't like the idea of not being able to touch her, she couldn't help but be extremely turned on by how dominant Beca was acting. She through her head back with a surrendering groan and let the younger woman continue her torturing.

The brunette slid her tongue back up Chloe's inner thigh and hovered over her entrance. Chloe could feel Beca's breath at her core and bit her lip in anticipation. She moaned when Beca finally stopped her teasing and slid her tongue through the red head's slick folds.

As Beca quickened her pace, Chloe jerked her wrists, desperately wanting to grip onto Beca's soft hair. The DJ only clenched tighter.

Chloe groaned in frustration, "This–is so unfair!" she panted.

Beca grinned against Chloe's center and pushed her mouth deeper into her.

"Fuck!" Chloe moaned.

As the red head's climax started to rise, her body was having a hard time keeping still. Beca took the all too familiar signals that Chloe was close and removed herself from her girlfriend, much to Chloe's annoyance. The red head snapped her head up and glared at her,

"Beca, what the hell?"

Beca started to readjust herself, "Shh...I wanna try something."

Chloe remained confused and irritated as she watched her lover position herself so their pelvises were perfectly aligned.

"Beca, what are you do–...Holy shit." Chloe breathed, and instantly felt immense pleasure when Beca lowered herself, making their centers collide. Beca released a shaky moan and braced her hands next to Chloe's head.

"Oh my God..." Beca moaned, still adjusting to the new, delicious sensation. She didn't know why they hadn't tried this before, it felt amazing. Once her reeling brain settled, she started to rock her hips. They shared a moan as their wet cores rubbed against each other.

"Oh my God, Beca–This..feels...so good..." she panted.

Chloe had already been very close to her climax just moments before and now was extra sensitive. Beca picked up her pace and couldn't hold herself up any longer. She lowered herself down and wrapped her body around Chloe's, continuing to grind harder against her. Beca tilted her head and attached her mouth to Chloe's neck, sucking hard on her pulse point. That was enough to send the red head over the edge.

Chloe screamed Beca's name and dragged her nails down the smaller woman's back as the pleasure flooded through her veins. Beca hissed at the enjoyable pain and it didn't take much longer for her to reach her second orgasm that night.

The brunette collapsed onto her lover and the two took a while to recoup. Once she had her strength back, Beca rolled off of Chloe and laid faced up next to her. She chuckled, which caught Chloe's attention,

"What's so funny?" she asked.

Beca smiled and responded without removing her gaze from the ceiling,

"I love Hawaii."

Chloe was the first to wake up the following morning. She blinked her eyes and stretched out her back. She smiled when she looked over and saw Beca sprawled out, faced down, asleep on the bed. It was an adorable. The red head got up and opened the balcony curtains, allowing the morning sunlight to flow into the room.

Beca stirred and tightened her eyelids when the new light shined on her face. She felt a familiar hand caress her cheek.

"Wake up, sleepy head."

Beca groaned, "Five more minutes."

The red head laughed at how childish her girlfriend always was when it came to waking up in the morning.

"Okay..." She stood up from the bed and walked over to the bathroom. She stretched against the doorframe, "Guess I'll have to take a shower all by myself then," she teased.

Beca still had her eyes closed and grinned. She waited until she could hear Chloe give up and walk into the bathroom. When she did, the DJ instantly sprang up from the bed and dashed to the bathroom. Chloe saw this and ran inside, giggling when the brunette caught her.

The couple headed downstairs to enjoy a complementary breakfast. The hotel had an exquisite buffet, with many delicious selections to choose from. They stood in line and made their way down the options. Beca looked around and grinned at how vibrant her surroundings were.

The hotel itself had a very "Hawaiian" feel to it. From the many tropical plants scattered around the lobby, to the bright and vivid multicolored throw pillows organized on the beige couches. The surf boards on the walls and the random tiki's were also nice touches. Along with the tropical decor, Beca noticed most of the guests at the hotel were wearing floral and ver colorful outfits. Even Beca had on a color that was different from her usual black, grey or red choices.

She had on a purple tank top and ripped jean shorts. Chloe usually wore bright colors on a daily basis. Today she had on a magenta chiffon cropped cami and light blue, ripped capris. They hadn't planned it, but the pink and purple combination was really cute.

They sat down at a nearby table after picking out what they wanted to eat. Beca had grabbed some french toast squares, scrambled eggs and orange juice. Chloe on the other hand had an omelet made and had a side bowl of yogurt with fruit and granola mixed into it. Beca wasted no time in digging into her french toast. Chloe chuckled,

"Is it good?"

Beca looked up from her plate and swallowed the pieces she had in her mouth. She casually shrugged and leaned back in her chair, "Eh–" she made a face, "Not as good as yours," she grinned.

Chloe smiled back, "You know it."

After breakfast, they visited the concierge to figure out what they could do that day. They hadn't made any plans before they arrived because they wanted their trip to be spontaneous and exciting. It was Hawaii after all; perfect place to just go with the flow.

"Good morning ladies. How may I help you?" asked the concierge. He looked to be in his mid thirties and wore a purple and white floral necklace along with his uniform.

"Hi!" Chloe happily greeted, "This is our first time in Hawaii and we just wanted to know what are some fun things we could do or places we could visit around here?"

"Well," the man started. He bent down and pulled out a pamphlet from under the desk, "If you're into art or priceless artifacts, we have the grand Bishop Museum you could visit."

"Ooo," Chloe looked at the pictures and glanced over at Beca for her opinion. She quickly received an answer when the DJ didn't look very inspired.

The brunette shrugged, "I'm not much of an art person," she stated.

The concierge smiled and flipped the page, "That's alright. How about the Honolulu Zoo? They have a variety of exotic animals you could see."

Chloe considered it and looked at Beca who made a face and looked back at the man,

"Eh, not adventurous enough."

The man raised his eyebrows, "Ah, so you're looking for some adventure, huh? I've got the perfect place for you to visit." He bent back down under the desk and pulled out a separate pamphlet. The cover had a very jungly design all over it, with plants and flowers. In white cursive letters was the title, Manoa Falls.

Beca raised a brow, "What's Manoa Falls?"

"It's a beautiful waterfall right in the middle of our rain forest. There's a fantastic hiking trail leading up to it. The scenery is spectacular and you can take a dip in the refreshing water."

Chloe's whole persona lit up, "Oh, Beca! A waterfall!" she shook the shorter woman's arm, "Let's go do that!"

Beca grinned at Chloe's excitement. She had to agree, a hike through a rain forest leading up to a waterfall sounded pretty exciting. She looked back at the man and nodded,

"Yeah sure, that sounds perfect," She smiled and grabbed the pamphlet, "Thanks."

The man nodded with a smile, "My pleasure. Have fun, ladies!" He waved them off as they walked away.

"Hey if we're gonna go on a hike, we should grab our sneakers from upstairs," Beca suggested. They already had their bathing suits on underneath their clothing, but hiking through a rainforest with flip flops did not sound like a good idea.

They called a taxi and directed the driver to take them to the waterfall. The drive wasn't too long and the couple distracted themselves by watching the unfamiliar surroundings pass them by through their windows. Chloe would occasionally call Beca's attention to get her to look at something she found fascinating at the moment.

The driver pulled over when they reached the trail and the couple exited the cab together. Beca paid the driver while Chloe took out her camera and took a picture of the trail entrance.

"Beca! Come on let's take a picture together." The red head called over her girlfriend and the two posed next to the 'Manoa Falls Hiking Trail' sign. Chloe aimed the camera in front of their faces and took the picture.

They began their hike and enjoyed the wilderness around them. They followed these square, stone steps that went through an opening formed by neighboring trees that created an arch from their branches intertwining together. It was a very unique sight, they hadn't seen anything like it before. They stopped to take a few pictures under the arch. They continued the path and Chloe would occasionally stop to take photos of anything she found intriguing.

"Beca, look!" she called out. The brunette stopped and turned to see Chloe pointing up at a tree that had three bright green and yellow parrots sitting on one of the branches. Chloe quickly aimed her camera and took a few shots. "They're so pretty," she said. They continued along and Beca was grateful she decided to change into to sneakers, especially since the trail became muddy in certain areas.

They eventually reached a point that looked like the dirt path went straight through an endless sea of green wildlife. The path was protected by wooden railings to keep the plant life from growing over it.

The hike wasn't too long and after about forty-five minutes, they finally made it to the waterfall. They saw another couple taking pictures on the rocks, so they decided to take some photos of their own before jumping into the water. The couple left and Beca and Chloe started to remove their clothes, leaving them in just their bathing suits. Chloe's was white with a blue and gold design on it, while Beca's was navy blue and had boy short bottoms.

Beca was still fumbling with her shades, which had gotten caught in her hair, while Chloe finished undressing and darted to the rocks.

"Last one in buys dinner!" the red head giggled before diving into the cool water.

Beca finally untangled the shades, "No fair!" she yelled before cannon balling into the water after her, "Woo!"

The water was so refreshing. It was already hot in Hawaii to begin with, but after hiking for so long through the thick and humid rainforest, the swim was definitely rewarding.

Chloe popped up from the water and looked around, wondering where her girlfriend went.

"Beca?" she called out.

Chloe squealed when she felt small hands wrap around her waist and pull her down underwater. Beca came up for air and pulled the red head back up with her.

"You cheated," said the DJ.

Chloe giggled when Beca tickled her sides a bit, "No I didn't."

"Mhmm..." she smirked.

They separated and swam around the small pool, together.

"Ugh, this water feels so good." Chloe commented.

Beca was floating on her back, "I know, right?" She heard the sound of the falling water getting louder behind her, so she stopped floating and turned to face it. The waterfall was extremely high; Beca had to crane her neck all the way back to look up at it.

"How tall do you think it is?" she asked Chloe.

The red head swam next to her and joined in on looking up at the natural beauty, "Well the pamphlet said it was about a hundred and fifty feet. So, I'd say it's pretty tall," she laughed.

"Woah."

Beca's staring was interrupted when she felt Chloe tug at her,

"Come on, lets go swim under it."

Beca grinned and followed her girlfriend closer to the waterfall. Chloe hesitated but then leaned forward under the rushing water. Beca laughed at how she shrieked when the water came crashing down on her.

"Come on, Beca!" Chloe called out and gestured for her to join her.

"I can't believe you're making me do this, Beale," she said before taking a deep breath and plunging forward.

It was her turn to scream when she felt the heavy water landing on her head. The sound of the falling water was blaring in her ears, but she could still hear the red head giggling.

"Isn't this amazing!" Chloe shouted with a wide smile on her face.

Beca pushed her hair to the sides of her face so she could look at the girl. All she could respond with was a laugh and a nod of her head in agreement. Chloe laced their fingers together and pulled them to the space behind the waterfall. It was still loud, but definitely quieter than being directly under it.

There was a moment of silence where words didn't have to be spoken as they enjoyed looking into each other's eyes and smiling at each other. Their hands were still together under the water when Chloe brought them a little closer.

"Thank you for bringing me out here," she gave Beca one of those beautiful, genuine smiles that made the brunette go weak in the knees. Good thing she wasn't standing.

She smiled back at the brilliant red head, "Thank you for coming with and making me feel like the luckiest girl in the world."

They leaned forward and shared a passionate, romantic kiss under the waterfall. The moment was absolutely perfect and nothing or no one could take it away from them.

They swam around a little longer but decided to come out when their fingers started to wrinkle. Beca was about to pull up her shorts when Chloe stopped her,

"Wait! One more picture."

Beca dropped her face, "Really, Chlo?"

The red head pulled out her camera, "Don't worry, you'll like this one," she said confidently.

"And why am I gonna like this on–" Chloe pulled her into a kiss and took the picture with the waterfall flowing behind them.

They separated and Chloe checked the screen for the result, "Thanks, babe."

Beca laughed, "How many pictures of us kissing to you have now, anyway?"

"Forty-Seven. Including this one," Chloe said nonchalantly, without removing her eyes from the screen. She heard Beca snicker and looked at her, "What? I'm planning on making a scrap book one day."

They dried themselves off and hiked their way back to the main entrance. Beca had called for a cab right after they changed back into their clothes, so by the time they reached the road, the taxi was already waiting for them. They piled into the car and shut the door behind them.

"Where to ladies?"

"Moana Surfrider please," Chloe directed.

The driver started to drive off and noticed their hair was still damp, "Did you guys enjoy the waterfall?"

"Yes! It was beautiful," Chloe was more of the friendly one when it came to conversing with other people.

The man nodded and continued the conversation, "Got any plans for this evening?"

"No, not yet. We still haven't figured ou–"

Chloe cut Beca off before she could finish, "Actually, yes! I'm taking her somewhere special tonight."

Beca raised a brow, "You are?" Why was she just learning about this now?

The red head grinned at her girlfriend,

"It's a surprise," she winked.

Beca couldn't help the small tingling feeling she got in her stomach. Chloe always had this effect on her. She tried not to show how excited she was knowing Chloe had planned a surprise for her. Not that there was anything wrong with showing her excitement for things around Chloe, but let's face it, she was still Beca Mitchell and Beca Mitchell was a badass...well maybe not around the particular red head.

Oh who was she kidding? She was whipped.

Beca gave a tight smiled and raised her eyebrows, implying an "Oh really?" response. Chloe bit her lip and gleefully nodded.

"I'm sure she's got something nice planned for you two," the driver commented with a smile, looking at his rearview mirror and making eye contact with the brunette.

They arrived back at the hotel and exited the cab. After paying their fee, the girls said goodbye to the driver.

"Have a good evening, ladies!" he called out.

Chloe intertwined their arms together as they made their way back up to their room.

They entered the room and discovered it had clearly been visited by the maids. The bed was all made up and little turtle made out of towels sat in front of the pillows. Laying on top of the pillows were two pieces of chocolate that looked like sand dollars.

"Aw, how cute," Chloe said, picking up one of the chocolates, "Wow, they look real."

Beca joined her and picked up the other one, analyzing it, "Yeah, pretty cool." She unwrapped the treat and bit into it, "Mmm, they're good," she mumbled. Chloe laughed, making the brunette look up, "What?" she grinned.

It always amused Chloe how adorable Beca was without even trying or being aware of it. She just was.

Chloe just shook her head, "Nothing."

Beca turned her attention back to the chocolate and took another bite, "So what's this surprise of yours?" she smirked at the red head and tossed the last piece into her mouth.

"It wouldn't be a surprise if I told you, now would it?" she grinned.

Beca kept playing along and shrugged, "I just wanna know what I should wear, that's all."

"A nice, casual dress," Chloe simply stated.

Becan remained still, "I didn't pack a dress, Chlo," she admitted.

The ginger was already at her side of the closet and pulled out a cute, short black dress.

"Good thing I did," she smirked.

Beca didn't like wearing dressing but she thanked the heavens that Chloe knew her so well. The dress looked comfortable. It was made up of some kind of soft material and it was simple in design. Plus it was black. Bonus.

She walked up to her and grabbed the dress, "So how long have you known about this surprise, huh?"

"A while." Chloe proudly affirmed, "I planned it a week before we left."

Beca gave her an impressed look, "Interesting." She looked back down at the dress, "What are you gonna wear?"

Chloe quickly walked to the bathroom, hiding her outfit in front of her, "You'll see!" she giggled, before shutting the bathroom door behind her.

Beca smirked and shook her head in amusement of her adorkable girlfriend. She knew Chloe spent a decent amount of time getting ready, so the DJ took the opportunity to just relax on the bed and watch some tv.

Beca lost track of time and was currently watching a show about haunted houses.

"Oh, come on! You guys totally just turned off the lights yourselves!" she criticized.

"How do I look?"

The brunette was too busing bashing the horrible show that she didn't notice Chloe come out of the bathroom. The red head startled her and she quickly looked over at her.

Beca's eyes went wide in awe as she scanned the ginger from top to bottom; then back up again. Chloe was wearing a stunning red cocktail dress that had a slanted bottom and a v-cut neckline. She accented the outfit perfectly with a small gold necklace, gold earrings and heels. Her hair was in loose curls and she had one side pinned up with a gold pin holding it in place.

"Wow," was all Beca could reply with.

Chloe giggled and spun around, "You like?"

Beca's brain was still unable to function properly and she just slowly nodded her head, her mouth still wide open.

"Alright, now you go get ready," the red head grinned and gestured for her to get up.

The DJ finally snapped back to reality and headed for the bathroom. She stopped next to Chloe to check her out one more time, "You should wear red more often, she grinned.

"Go!" Chloe laughed and the brunette did as she was told.

Beca exited the shower and changed into her dress. Chloe looked amazing and had apparently been planning this surprise for a while. Beca wanted to look good for her. She took her hair out of it's bun and huffed trying to figure out what to do with it. She usually just left her hair straight or curled it from time to time, and mostly kept it down. After testing a few styles, she settled for the one she liked best and thought went well with her outfit.

She finished her hair and was now faced with another dilemma:

Makeup.

Her everyday makeup consisted of light mascara and maybe some eyeliner. But this was for Chloe, and it was their anniversary after all. She looked at the selections that were scattered around Chloe's sink and after going through her options she came up with a combination she thought would suit her.

Beca peeked out from behind the bathroom door and discovered Chloe wasn't around. The television was still on, but the ginger was no where to be found. Beca stepped out and noticed the red head was on the balcony watching the view. The DJ smiled and approached her girlfriend from behind.

Chloe grinned when she felt familiar hands wrap around her waist.

"Hey," Beca said, nuzzling into the taller woman's neck.

The ginger leaned into her, "Hey," she replied, before separating them, "Let me see you," she grinned.

Beca stepped back and tried to smile as confidentially as she could, but the red head knew she was uncomfortable and not use to dressing this way; even though she did look really good in the dress. Chloe was touched to see how much effort the DJ had put into her outfit. Her hair was curled, but instead of just leaving it down, she had pinned back the sides and left two loose strands around her face. She put on more mascara than she usually did and had black eyeliner not only on top but also around the inside of her eyelids. The makeup really accented her dark eyes.

"Wow, Beca," she smiled widely, "You look beautiful."

"Yeah?" she asked. She knew Chloe wouldn't lie to her, but her stupid insecurities still made their way out sometimes. Chloe grinned while bitting her lip and nodded.

"Thanks," Beca smiled, trying to hold back the blush from creeping on her face. A whole year of dating this girl and she still made her blush. "I didn't get to say it earlier, but you look amazing," Beca gestured to her red dress.

Chloe looked down and chuckled, "Thank you." She looked back at the younger brunette and leaned in for a quick kiss. She stayed close to her face after they separated, "Ready?" she grinned.

Beca happily nodded and Chloe wrapped their fingers together, "Then let's go."

Chloe directed the driver to go to some place that sounded like a restaurant. When they got out of the car, Beca's theory was confirmed. The place looked like fancy restaurant. The DJ looked up at the lit up sign but couldn't make out what it meant since the name of the place was written in Hawaiian. How did Chloe even find this place? And why?

"Come on," Chloe said, intertwining their arms and guiding Beca through the main door.

The place was nice. The atmosphere was very refined but still had the fun Hawaiian feel to it. The furniture and posts were made of dark wood and the decorative accents were white. The wallpaper was beige but had a nice palm tree design that followed an every other pattern.

They approached the front podium where the hostess stood, "Hi, how are you this evening? Reservation name?"

Reservation?

"Chloe Beale," said the red head.

The hostess looked down at her list and pointed the name out, "Ah, party of two," she looked up at them and smiled, "Right this way."

The woman led them through the place and Beca started to realize this wasn't just a regular restaurant. As they approached their table, Beca noticed they were sitting by a platform that had a grand piano and microphone on it. The person that was currently singing on it was looking up towards a screen that was positioned on the wall across from them. Beca looked over the other side and saw a bar hidden in a darker area of the place with neon lights wrapping around the borders. And then it hit her.

This was a karaoke bar! Just a much more sophisticated one. Beca thought back to how a year ago she had taken Chloe to a karaoke bar to perform and let the ginger know how she felt about her and that she knew what had happened between them. Chloe was so cheesy. Of course she would bring them back to another karaoke bar. Beca assumed this meant she was going to be singing as well.

Before they sat down, Beca turned around to face the red head, "Chlo–"

Chloe just giggled, "Shh..."

"Enjoy your evening," the hostess said after they sat down, and went back to her post.

"Really Chlo? A karaoke bar?" she teased.

Chloe gave a tight smile and nodded without removing her eyes from the menu,

"Mhmm."

Beca grinned, "You're so cheesy."

The red head dropped her menu, "You love it," she winked.

She was right.

As they waited for their food to arrive, the couple sat and watched the different singers perform on the stage; casually sipping their drinks. Chloe had ordered a Mai Tai while Beca decided to go with a Blue Sea Martini. Their attention was caught by the waiter as he started to place their food on the table.

"Thank you," Chloe smiled.

The waiter smiled back, "My pleasure. Enjoy your meal," he said before returning back to the kitchen. They only had a few bites when the announcer called up the next singer,

"Is there a Chloe Beale here tonight?"

Both girls snapped up from their food. Beca went wide eyed while Chloe grinned.

"Chloe..." Beca said firmly, holding back a goofy grin.

Chloe quickly wiped her mouth with her napkin and stood up, "I guess that's me!" she announced, and spun around to walk to the platform.

"Copycat!" Beca laughed. She wondered what song the red head was going sing. The brunette waited with anticipation. She watched as the ginger said something to the piano player and he nodded in response. She came back to the middle of the platform and spoke into the mic,

"Good evening everyone. My name is Chloe Beale and I'd like to say a little something to someone who means the world to me." She faced Beca and stared deeply into her eyes, "Beca, a year ago today, you brought me to a place similar to this one and performed in front of hundreds of people to let me know how you felt about me," she grinned when Beca smiled at her, "Well, I wanted to return the favor." Chloe turned to the pianist and cued him to start. She looked back at Beca, "This one's for you."

Beca brought her elbow up onto the table and leaned her head against her hand as she watched her girlfriend in adoration.

"This is my love song to you.

Let every woman know I'm yours.

So you can fall asleep each night, babe,

and know I'm dreaming of you more."

Beca got lost in Chloe's brilliant blue eyes as the red head continued to serenade her,

"You're always hoping that we make it.

You always wanna keep my gaze.

Well you're the only one I see, love.

And that's the one thing that won't change."

Chloe continued to sing without removing her gaze from the younger woman. She wanted Beca to know that she truly meant every single word she sang.

"I will never stop trying.

I will never stop watching as you leave.

I will never stop losing my breath,

every time I see you looking back at me.

And I will never stop holding your hand.

I will never stop opening your door.

I will never stop choosing you, babe.

I will never get used to you."

Beca could feel Chloe's sincerity and the room around them disappeared. The music continued to play and all they could see was each other. The piano picked up and Chloe sang more passionately to match it,

"You still get my heart racing.

You still get my heart racing, for you.

You still get my heart racing.

You still get my heart racing.

You still get my heart racing, for you."

Beca tried to keep them back, but the tears of joy started to form in her eyes. She will never understand why someone like Chloe loved her as much as she did. It was one of the wonders of the world that she knew she would never understand.

Chloe reached the last verse of the song and softened her voice,

"I will never stop trying.

I will never stop watching as you leave."

Chloe noticed how glossy Beca's eyes were and felt her own eyes begin to water as she finished the song,

"I will never stop choosing you, babe.

I will never get used to you..."

She slowly lowered the mic and gave a soft smile to her lover as one small tear fell from her eye. The crowd wildly applauded and the brunette stood up to join in, smiling through her tears.

Chloe snapped out of her daze and giggled, waving to the crowd and thanking them. She looked back at Beca and mouthed, I love you.

Beca smiled even wider and wiped a tear from her face, I love you too, she replied.

They enjoyed the rest of their dinner together and the restaurant gave them a desert on the house after finding out they were celebrating their first anniversary together. The meal was perfect.

After the restaurant, they weren't ready to go back to the hotel just yet, so instead, they decided to take a stroll down the beach. Their fingers were laced together while their free hands held their shoes. They casually walked aside the shore line and enjoyed the warm night air that occasionally had a light breeze. Their hands effortlessly swung as they chatted,

"I still can't believe you did that," Beca commented.

Chloe chuckled, "Well, you did it for me. It was the least I could do," she said sarcastically, making the brunette smirk.

There was a moment of silence before Chloe spoke up again,

"You know, now that I think about it, I don't think I ever asked you how you remembered what we did at the Christmas party."

Beca pondered her comment and thought back, "Really?"

Chloe thought about it a little more, "Yeah, I don't think you ever told me."

"Huh," was all Beca replied with, but Chloe was still curious.

"So, how did you remember?"

Beca looked down and snickered out of embarrassment, "It's actually really stupid."

Now Chloe really wanted to know, "Oh, come on. Tell me!" she cheerfully persuaded.

"Well, I had Amy look up online what were some possible ways to remember things you forgot after being drunk, and I guess she found an article that said you could sometimes gain the memories back by getting drunk again and trying to remember them then."

Chloe stopped them in their tracks, "You didn't," she gaped.

Beca shamelessly shook her head and grinned, "I did."

"Oh my God!" Chloe laughed as they resumed their walking, "But what if it hadn't worked? You would've gotten yourself hammered for nothing."

Beca shrugged, "I had to do something. I was willing to try anything to remember."

Chloe smiled. She never thought Beca had gone to such drastic measures to try to remember what had happened between them. It was sweet. Crazy, but sweet.

"Well I'm glad you did," the red head grinned. She watched the brunette as they continued to walk. She did look really hot in the dress. Chloe thought Beca looked great in anything, but everything she had on at the moment just brought out her God given features. The dress showed off all her curves, her hair framed her face nicely and her makeup just emphasized her natural beauty.

"We should get back to the room," Chloe suggested.

"Why?" Beca stopped and worried that maybe she had said something wrong.

Chloe leaned in to her ear and spoke alluringly, "Because the longer I see you in this dress, the harder it is for me to keep my hands to myself," she purred.

A shiver ran down Beca's spine and she gulped, frantically nodding her head in agreement,

"Oh, O-Okay," she stuttered.

They burst into the hotel room, exchanging sloppy kisses moans and stumbled while trying to shut the door behind them. Chloe pushed the younger woman up against the closest wall and attacked her neck. Beca moaned and tossed her head back, ignoring the pain that came when she hit the wall. Chloe hoisted the brunette up and she responded by wrapping her legs around her waist. They instinctively began to grind against each other and their arousals grew to be unbearable. Chloe removed Beca from the wall and collapsed them both onto the bed.

The following day was Christmas and the couple were excited to celebrate the holiday for the first time in Hawaii. They looked forward to the big celebration they heard so much about that took place right on the beach by their hotel. The festival didn't start until dinner time. The hotel was hosting a grand buffet for their guests in honor of the holiday. The girls figured they had time to spare until then and Chloe suggested they go check out the marketplace and go shopping.

Much to Beca's surprise, the stores were fairly busy. Chloe got excited and immediately started taking pictures of the place. It definitely was a charming marketplace. There were many stands all over the outside while the bigger stores that went indoors surrounded them.

Chloe had asked a man walking by if he could take a picture of them under the main entrance. They posed and she thanked the man after he took the shot. After making sure the picture came out nice, Chloe grabbed a hold of Beca's hand and they went on to shop around.

The stores and stands were selling a variety of things. From accessories and clothing, to surfboards and tikis. They stopped at one of the accessory stands and Beca made Chloe laugh by putting on different looking shades and making funny faces with them. Chloe took some pictures of her and continued to circle around and check out the other side of the stand. She spotted a pink and blue bracelet she really liked but didn't say anything. Luckily Beca knew her too well and bought the item for her anyway. It was a rewarding decision since the red head gave her a kiss on the cheek as a thank you.

The DJ spotted a 'Henna Tattoo' stand and wanted to get one done. Getting a fake tattoo while already having real tattoos seemed kind of pointless, but it was Hawaii and she was on vacation, so, why not?

She found a cool moon design and decided she wanted it placed on her wrist. Chloe wasn't going to get one done but spotted a pretty floral design on display and just couldn't pass it up. She had it put around her ankle.

They had lunch at one of the cafes there and continued to shop for another hour or so afterwards. Chloe ended up buying a tropical green and white dress and new shades, while Beca bought a little tiki statue. The brunette checked the time and suggested they get back to the hotel so they could get ready for the festival. Chloe agreed and they left the marketplace.

After showering and fixing themselves up, they knew the festival was going to take place on the beach, so they made sure to dress nice, but comfortable. Chloe wore a white spaghetti strap tank top, with a light jean blue button down shirt on top. She tied the bottom half into a knot across her stomach and matched the button down with light blue capris. Beca had on a loose, red, singlet tank top with black shorts and flip flops.

The dinner buffet was about to begin so they headed down stairs to make sure they got a table. The lobby was tastefully decorated for the holiday and the room was beaming with lively people. The girls managed to grab a table and chatted as they waited for the buffet to open.

"This is so cool, Beca!" Chloe announced as she watched the active environment around them.

The brunette had to agree. Christmas in Hawaii seemed so festive and exciting. A fairly different experience than celebrating it back home. Not that celebrating Christmas back home was dull or anything, but celebrating it on an island like Hawaii, made it that much more enchanting.

"I can't wait to see the surf competition," Beca mentioned.

"Oh, totes, me too! And the hula performance," Chloe replied.

Before Beca could comment any further, they heard the speaker come on and a man, assumed the be the hotel manager, began to speak,

"Mele Kalikimaka everybody! Thank you all so much for choosing our hotel as your place to stay and celebrating this glorious holiday with us! We would like to announce that the buffet is now officially open. Enjoy the food and don't forget to visit the beach for the festival and the lighting of our fifty-foot Christmas tree! Have a splendid evening everyone!"

Chloe bit her lip with excitement, "Let's go!"

They left some of their belongings at their table so no one would take it and got in line for the buffet. The hotel had all kinds of delicious food on display, it was almost overwhelming. The girls weren't sure what they wanted to grab. In the end, they wound up putting way more food on their plates than they could possibly eat.

After their delectable meal, Beca and Chloe were excited to get to the beach and spend the rest of the evening at the festival. They could hear the cheerful music getting louder and louder as they approached the celebration. The hotel had placed a big beautiful arch, made up of many colorful flowers, on the beach to signify the main entrance. Two giant tiki statues stood at each side with flames coming off the tops and Beca couldn't resist the urge. She posed with the tiki and had Chloe take a picture.

As they walked through the arch they were greeted by merry Hawaiians and were handed floral necklaces to wear. The couple happily accepted them and thanked the friendly people.

The beach was filled with people from all walks of life. The festival stretched out all along the beach and not one spot was empty. There were a few stands selling foods an beverages along with souvenirs and other memorabilia. In the center of the festival was the grand stage, and standing tall next to it, the fifty-foot Christmas tree.

"Now that's a Christmas tree," Beca pointed out.

"I'll say," the red head agreed.

Chloe looked further down the beach and noticed a cluster of surfers gathering together by one of the stands.

"Oh! Beca, I think they're going to start the surf competition soon," she gestured towards the direction she was looking, "We should head down there."

"Oh, hell yeah." Beca said and the two made their way down to the surfers.

Chloe was right. They got there just before the competition started the surfers were just getting into the water. The girls were impressed and watched in astonishment as the surfers did all kinds of remarkable tricks and moves with their boards. Beca was amazed they could do all those stunts while trying to balance on their boards, as they glided against the giant waves. It was incredible.

Out of the ten competitors, three of them definitely stood out the most. They were given the first, second, and third place medals. The first place winner was a chiseled young man who definitely appeared to eat, sleep, and breath surfing. His extraordinary performance deserved the reward.

After the competition, the girls started heading towards the dance floor. Beca really enjoyed the jam they were playing. She didn't recognize it, but it had a great beat. She turned to face Chloe,

"Wanna dance?"

Chloe never passed up an opportunity to dance, especially when it came to dancing with her favorite brunette.

"Sure!" she smiled.

Beca took her hand and guided them through the crowd until they found a comfortable spot. They danced and grooved in harmony with the ukuleles and drums playing on the stage. The music had an interesting combination of upbeat and light mixed with strong and passionate. Beca was definitely going to look up Hawaiian music when she got back home for potential mashup ideas.

They danced together for a few songs but the heat was getting to them. They squeezed through the crowd and looked for a beverage stand. Beca spotted one and the girls waited in line.

"What should we get?" Chloe asked, looking up at the menu displayed at the top of the shack. Beca was looking up too and read through the options. She felt Chloe hit her arm to get her attention,

"Ooo, wanna share one of those?" She pointed to a man walking by who was drinking out of a hollowed out pineapple that had a white, slushy beverage inside it.

"Yeah, sure." Beca had to agree it looked pretty good.

They made it to the front and were asked for their order,

"What drink do you guys put in the pineapple?" Beca asked.

"Piña Colada," the woman answered, "Would you like one of those?" she asked.

Beca looked to Chloe for an answer and the red head just nodded, eagerly. Beca chuckled,

"Yeah, we'll take one of those." Beca pulled out her card to pay for the drink.

The woman slid it through the machine and asked, "Is whipped cream okay?"

Before Beca could answer, Chloe quickly jumped in,

"Yes!"

Beca gave her a look and bit back a laugh.

"What? the red head asked.

"You're such a weirdo," Beca said.

Chloe made a face, "Beca..." she whined. The brunette cut her off,

"Shh, I like weirdos," she smirked. Chloe grinned and the two waited by the second window for their drink.

They were handed their drink that was decorated with a pineapple and cherry garnish, two colorful straws, and a pink umbrella. Chloe removed the umbrella and stuck it in Beca's hair.

Beca frowned, "Chlo, you know I don't like pink."

The red head adjusted the item until it sat just right, "Please? It's so small and it looks really cute on you," she smiled.

Her and that freakin' smile,

"You owe me, Beale," she grumbled.

"Yay!" Chloe gleed and wrapped their arms together as they walked around and sipped their drink.

They heard someone on the stage announce that the hula performance was going to begin, so Beca and Chloe tried to move up as close as they could to get a good view. The performers stepped onto the stage and the girls cheered along with the crowd. There were four females and two males in the group. Their dancing was great and they moved in sync to the music. The performance escalated when the two male hula dancers started to fire breath and spin two sticks around that were both lit on fire on both ends. The show was fantastic.

By the time the show ended, the sun had started to set. Many couples were sitting along the shore line to watch it.

"Babe, wanna go watch the sunset?" Chloe asked.

Beca was in the middle of taking another sip of their drink, so she just nodded in response. They walked over to an opened area and Beca sat down. Chloe pulled out her camera and took a few pictures of the beautiful sky before joining the brunette on the sand.

Chloe leaned her head on Beca's shoulders and intertwined their fingers together behind them.

"This has been such an amazing trip, Beca."

The DJ smiled, "Yeah? You like it so far?"

Chloe scoffed, "Like? I love it! I've been having so much fun."

"Good. I'm glad. You deserve it," Beca affirmed.

Chloe leaned up, off Beca's shoulder, making the brunette turn to look at her. Chloe leaned in and placed a gentle kiss on the DJ's lips.

"You know, it wouldn't be as much fun if you weren't here," the red head pointed out. Beca smiled and pulled her in for another kiss. Chloe resumed her position on Beca's shoulder afterward, and together they watched the sun go down.

After it had gotten dark, a man called for everyone to gather around the giant Christmas tree so they could light it. Beca and Chloe stood up and joined the crowd. He started the count down and got everyone to join in with him,

"Five...four...three...two...one!"

When the last number was called, the tree lit up on cue and the crowd went wild. The mixed cheers of "Mele Kalikimaka!" and "Merry Christmas!" rang around the beach. The tree was spectacular. The many colorful lights and decorations shined brilliantly around it. It was a marvelous sight and the girls were so happy to be sharing the experience together.

Chloe caught Beca's attention and gave her a loving kiss. As Beca kissed her back, she saw a bright flash go off through her eyelids. She broke the kiss and opened her eyes to see what it was. Her face dropped when she realized what it was,

"Really, Chlo?" she whined.

Chloe just giggled as she looked at the picture on the camera screen,

"Fourty-eight!" she gleed.

Beca snickered and pushed the camera away from the red head, pulling her back in for another kiss. Chloe smiled against her lips and deepened the kiss; wrapping her arms around the smaller woman's neck, and tangling her fingers into her soft brown hair.

They had only one day left in Hawaii and they had know idea how they were going to spend it. It didn't matter, however, because as long as they were together, they knew they would have a memorable time.

They separated and Chloe left her hand on the brunette's cheek,

"Merry Christmas, Beca," she smiled.

Beca smiled back, "Happy Anniversary, Chlo."

The End

Author's 2nd Note: *wipes tear* And that my friends, is the end of my first Bechloe fic: "Under the Mistletoe"

Fun Fact: I did A LOT of research on Hawaii to figure out actual places and get design ideas, and all the searching made me REALLY want to spend Christmas in Hawaii. All the places I mentioned (minus the karaoke bar. I made one up since I didn't like the designs of actual karaoke bars they have in Honolulu) are actual places you can visit. The hotel, the waterfall, the marketplace, etc. Someone take me to Hawaii! Dx

Song Choice: For Chloe's song I had her sing "Never Stop" (Wedding Version) by SafetySuit. I LOVE that song and just thought it fit perfectly into my story.

Fun Fact #2: I have a whole playlist of songs I feel Beca would sing to Chloe or vice versa. Message me if you'd like the list. ;D

Thank you all so much for taking the time to read my story! It has meant the world to me knowing you guys enjoyed it! :)

I received a prompt request on Tumblr for a quick Bechloe fic, so I will probably be posting that next. Then after that, I plan on starting my next multi-chapter Bechloe fic that will be a High School AU. Can't wait to write it! :D

P.S. Follow me on Tumblr! I'm planning on posting a collage of pictures I used that inspired locations, room designs and outfits for this story. URL: "not-so-average-fangirl" (yes, it's the same name) x)

P.P.S. I'm thinking of taking more one-shot Bechloe prompts that I could maybe write and post in between chapter updates of my next fic. So, send me your ideas and I'll see which ones I can do! :D (hopefully all of them) haha

Take care everybody! I love you all! Thanks again. :)

Love Always,

"not-so-average-fangirl" ;)
