For Good: Chapter 16

Beca pulls up at the hospital and parks the car near the entrance. Instead of waiting inside the car, she steps out and walks inside. She's holding on to a little flower bouquet and nervously starts pacing in a little corner, not to bother anyone. A few minutes later a nurse walks up to her and she freezes when she sees who's standing before her. "Oh my god... y-you're... you're the Beca Mitchell?" The brunette turns around and is standing face to face with a black haired girl that couldn't be much older than her. "Hi." Beca says politely with a smile. "A-are your waiting for someone? Or did someone you know get hurt?" Beca chuckles at the nervous rambling and shakes her head gently. "I am actually waiting for someone, she started work here today and I wanted to pick her up."

The girl's eyes widen and a massive smile grows on her face. "So you're Beca? Chloe's Beca?" The brunette nods her head with an amused smile. "I didn't think you would be the same Beca, I can't believe I actually met the Beca Mitchell." Beca is used to stuff like that happening but it still makes her laugh and awkward at the same time. "I guess you should get used to it, I'll be picking up Chloe as much as I can." Beca admits with a relaxed smile. "You will?" Beca nods her head slowly. "Uhm, would you maybe like to take a picture or something?" The nurse freezes up and is at a complete loss for words.

"Beca..."

The brunette turns her head towards the chipper voice that undoubtedly comes from Chloe. "I see you met Elisabeth." The nurse shuffles her feet nervously. "I kind of did, apparently you have been talking about me?" Beca asks teasingly. She knows Chloe can't help it, it's just the was she is. "Maybe?" Chloe quietly admitted. "Are you mad?" She asks carefully. Which naturally makes Beca laugh. "Of course not Chlo, I feel honoured."

The brunette holds her arms open and Chloe instantly rushed into them. "Do you want to head home?" Chloe whispers into the crook of Beca's neck. The brunette slightly pulls away and nods her head. "Sure but uhh can you maybe first take a picture of me and your friend? Because I think I broke her." Chloe looks back at Elisabeth and rolls her eyes with a smile. She found out pretty quickly that the girl is a huge fan of Beca and knew that this would probably happen soon. "Sure, I'll take it with my phone and send it to her." Beca lets go of Chloe and wraps an arm around Elisabeth and waits for Chloe to take a picture.

When the picture is taken Beca takes her arm back and Chloe slowly leads Elisabeth back to the front desk and leaves her there. She walks back to her brunette with a smile. "So, are you ready to go home?" Beca asks, holding out the flowers for Chloe to take? "You bought me flowers? They're gorgeous."

"They're nothing compared to you." Chloe looks up and sees Beca blushing furiously at her own sappy comment, scratching the back of her neck. Chloe has no idea how to react to the sweetness before her so she does the one thing she thinks can be appropriate. She leans in and wraps her arms around Beca's neck, pulling her in for a sweet kiss. They keep it PG-13, letting out quiet chuckles when they do break apart. "Take me home." Beca doesn't have to be told twice as she takes Chloe's hand and gently pulls her out of the building towards her car. She opens the door for the redhead and waits until she's inside before closing the door and circling to the other side to get in herself.

Once both girls are settled Beca takes out her phone and shoots off a text, raising suspicion from Chloe. "Who are you texting?" The redhead asks, trying to look at the screen without Beca noticing. "Drew, I forgot to tell him that we'd need studio 3 tomorrow." Chloe raises her brow in confusion with an equally confused smile. "Oh uhh yeah, I've recorded most of the hits there or at home, it's kind of a good luck studio for me." Beca starts the car and begins pulling out of the parking lot. "If you want maybe you can come with me once?" Chloe's smile grows bigger. "You wouldn't mind me coming?"

"Yeah sure, I think I have to be in the studio most of the month to record the new songs, I'll be working from home as well but I still need to be there more than not. When you have your day off you can ride with me or come in later or something?" Beca finally catches her breath when she's done speaking. "I mean you don't have to, it's just a suggestion." The brunette quickly adds when Chloe stays quiet. She only relaxes when she sees that the redhead is buzzing in her seat.

Beca chuckles when she sees Chloe turn in her seat with a huge grin plastered on her face. "I'm going to assume by the lack of words and huge grin on your face that you're ok with it?" Chloe nods her head, still not being able to actually pronounce any words. "Once you can finally speak, just let me know." The brunette teases gently. But just like minutes ago no sound comes from the redhead. So the two drive back to the penthouse with only the radio playing in the background. Chloe's mind racing back to the first time Beca took her to the recording studio.

*Flashback*

Chloe's parents had decided to let their daughter travel to LA to see her girlfriend. She had one more week before heading to college and their little girl has been moping around ever since the brunette left, almost two months ago. Chloe had been preparing for her classes to keep hersself busy but now she has nothing to do and she locks herself in her room, waiting for her girlfriend to call her.

So that's why Henry is waking up his only daughter at 5 AM. "Hmmm da- wha- oin- on?" Chloe asks drowsily. "You're going on a trip, bug. Mommy has mad your bag, we leave for the airport in 15 minutes." Chloe slowly sits up, trying to process her father's words. Once she has fully understood what has been said she shakes her head in confusion. "What are you talking about?" She says in between yawns. "I'll explain on the way to the airport. Now get up, your mom has made you breakfast to go."

Henry presses a soft kiss on his daughter's forehead before making his way back down. "Did you wake her?" Sylvia rolls her eyes with a smile when her husband nods. "I guess she's confused?" Henry nods his head and lets out a yawn. "Mom? Where are we going?" Sylvia hands her daughter a travel mug filled with coffee and a croissant. "Well, you've been moping around for weeks now because you miss Beca so we've arranged for you to go visit her for a week. Now if you want to see your girlfriend you'll have to leave now or you'll miss your flight."

Sylvia says it so casually that at first Chloe doesn't believe her. But once the realisation hits her that she's actually going to see Beca she's unstoppable. She pushes her father out of the house, with her travel bag on her shoulder. Henry just lets it happen, too tired to actually do something about it.

Beca is patiently waiting for the flight from Atlanta to land in LA. She had pushed her morning appointments to later in the day. She had been bouncing with a huge smile on her face. Drew has been teasing her ever since. But right now she doesn't care about that, she only cares about Chloe who's plane just landed. The brunette is giddy with anticipation and stands on her tip toes as people start to walk out of the doors. As the crowd becomes bigger the more difficult it becomes for Beca to see who is coming out. Yet the minutes a flash of red hair appears she knows it's her girlfriend.

Chloe had spotted her as well and made a beeline towards her, and drops her bag on the floor to be able to wrap her arms around Beca. The brunette mimics the same action but instead wraps her arms around the redhead's waist. She pulls her as close and tight as she can, inhaling the sweet perfume her girlfriend was wearing. "I missed you so much." Beca whispers into Chloe's hair. "I missed you too." The two break apart with bright smiles on their faces, they lean in and share a short but meaningful kiss.

When they break apart Chloe notices how brightly Beca's eyes sparkle. It's one of the most gorgeous things she has ever seen and it warms her heart, believing that it's only for her. "Do you want to get going?" Beca asks softly. "I mean, I do have a studio session later and if you want you can join me? And if you get bored I can ask Drew to take you somewhere else or something?" Chloe chuckles lightly. "I will never tire of hearing you sing, I can't wait to hear your new stuff."

"You'll be hearing a lot of it soon, we started recording my first album last week." Chloe lets out a squeal. "Why didn't you tell me?" Beca rolls her eyes as she starts pulling her girlfriend towards the exit. "Because your parents called me to tell me they booked your ticket so I waited to tell you in person." The brunette finally manages to pull her girlfriend outside and flags down a cab. The car pulls up in front of them and Beca opens the door for Chloe to get in. She follows the redhead and tells the driver where to go.

They arrive at Beca's tiny apartment a little over 30 minutes later, not once did they let go of each others hands except for when they exit the car or needed to let Beca open the door. Once inside and behind locked door Chloe doesn't hesitate to wrap her arms around her girlfriend and pulls her in for a long kiss. Sadly the second their lips meet the ringing of Beca's phone interrupts them.

Each lets out a loud groan and let go of each other. "I'm really sorry, I need to get this." Beca apologises, crinkling her nose in process. "No, it's fine, I totally understand." Chloe gently smiles at the younger girl and urges her to pick up the phone.

*Phone Call*

Beca: "Hello?"

Drew: "Hi Becs, I'm outside waiting for you."

Beca: "What? Why?"

Drew: "For the studio session? We need to be there in less than an hour."

Beca: "I thought we moved it up to the afternoon?"

Drew: "No, we moved it up an hour so you could pick Chloe up.

Beca: "What? Ok, uhh yeah we'll be down in a minute."

Drew: "Don't linger, or I won't hesitate to come up."

Beca: "Yeah, yeah, I know, don't lose your socks. We're on our way."

*End Phone Call*

Beca hangs up and shoves her phone into her jeans with a frustrated sigh. "I'm really sorry Chlo, I really thought we'd have some more time to spend together before I had to head into work." Chloe just shakes her head with a gentle smile. "Don't worry about it babe." She walks up to the brunette and gives her a quick peck. "Do I have time to change? I mean I don't look like I-" The brunette cuts her girlfriend off swiftly. "Chlo, you don't have to change, you are beautiful. If anyone should change it should be me but I don't have the time either."

Chloe shakes her head with a loving smile as Beca slowly wraps her arms around her. "Well, I guess we should get going, I'm actually excited to see you in your full element." Beca rolls her eyes and takes her girlfriend's hand and starts pulling her out of the apartment.

Right in front of the building Drew is waiting for the girls, leaning against his car. "Welcome to LA Chloe, hope you'll enjoy your stay. I can show you around while DJ B-Mitch does her job." Beca almost growls at the man which Chloe finds amusing. "Come on Beca, lighten up. You convinced the studio to let you master the songs yourself which I honestly still can't believe." Chloe looks at her girlfriend in full disbelieve.

"If you really want to know, I proved that I could do a better job than the technicians they have so yes, I get full power over my album." Beca says as she holds the door open for Chloe. The redhead doesn't hesitate to step into the car. "Now, can we finally go to the studio so I can record my first song so I can finally spend some time with my girlfriend?" Beca semi hisses at her manager. "Alright, no need to get snappy. We're on our way."

Beca is sitting in a fancy chair, listening and mixing the various recordings that have been made the previous day so they can be used to record the voice over. "Hmm... uhu... alright, we got this, I'm ready to record this." Beca finally says with a smile. She gets up and steps into the booth and and shoots the technician a thumbs up when she's ready to start singing.

A fun ukulele tune fills the room and soon after Beca's voice. Chloe can only stare at her girlfriend with a huge smile on her face and tries to listen intently to the lyrics that are going to follow the little prologue.

Do do dodo do do

Do do do do dodo do

Do do dodo do do

Today

I'm laughing the clouds away

I hear what the flowers say

And drink every drop of rain

And I see

Places that I have been

In ways that I've never seen

My side of the grass is green

Ooh I can't believe that it's so simple

It feels so natural to me

If this is love

Then love is easy

It's the easiest thing to do

If this is love

Then Love completes me

'Cause it feels like I've been missing you

A simple equation

With no complications

To leave you confused

If this is love, love, love

Hmm it's the easiest thing to do

Do do do do do do do

Do do do do do do do

Do do do do do do you

Feel the way that I do?

Do I turn your grey skies blue?

And make dirty streets look new?

Hmm and the birds sing

Tweeheeheeheeheeheeheet
Tweedleheeheeheehee

Now I know exactly what they mean

Ooh I can't believe that it's so simple

It feels so natural to me

If this is love

Then love is easy

It's the easiest thing to do

If this is love

Then Love completes me

'Cause it feels like I've been missing you

A simple equation

With no complications

To leave you confused

If this is love, love, love

Hmm it's the easiest thing to do

Do do do do do do do

Do do do do do do do

Do do do do do do do

Do do do do do do do

Do do do do do do do

Do do do do do do do

(What is it that you want, Chloe?
What do you want?
You want the moon?

Just say the word and I'll throw a lasso

around it and pull it down.

Hey, that's a pretty good idea I'll nice you

the moon, Chloe.)

Ooh no

If this is love

Then love is easy

It's the easiest thing to do

If this is love

Then Love completes me

'Cause it feels like I've been missing you

A simple equation

With no complications

To leave you confused

If this is love, love, love

Hmm it's the easiest thing to do

Chloe is completely stars struck when Beca finishes the song. It takes all of the redhead's willpower not to jump up, run into the booth and kiss her girlfriend senseless. Beca doesn't seem to notice because she furiously writing something down on her scores. "Yo Mark, I need to check some things out, can you replay the track for me?"

"Sure thing!" The older man says with a thumbs up. He presses some buttons and soon the room an supposedly the booth are filled with music. Everyone's concentration is on Beca and watch the young girl listening intently and holding up her hand for Mark to stop the music. "This spot, there's something missing here... I know!" Mark swivels out of the way with his chair and gives Beca some space when she runs out of the booth. Beca hums a second voice and smiles to herself.

*End Flashback*

Chloe is brought back from her thoughts when Beca taps her on her shoulder. "I don't know where your mind went but we're back home." Beca says gently. "Nowhere..." Chloe says with a goofy grin. "... just dreaming." Beca rolls her eyes."Alriiight..." The brunette draws out. "... anyway, when you're ready we can go inside and start on dinner?" Chloe doesn't have to be told twice as she jumps out of the car with a smile. There is no doubt the new album will be great and she can't wait to hear it.
