Bechloe Week 2021 - Day 7
August 1st: Superpowers or Wait for me
Read on AO3
A short and sweet one to finish out Bechloe week. I’ve had a lot of fun writing these prompts, I honestly only planned to do one or two but then I kinda got caught up in this universe I made for them. If you’re interested in the chronological order of the prompts I wrote, I’ll be posting something tonight or tomorrow probably (I’ll pin it!)
Hope you like it even if it is a day late - thanks to everyone who has liked and reblogged and commented on my stuff all week 💖
-
They’d been talking for hours. For days, really, on and off.
They were talking in circles, making the same promises and reassurances that actually hadn’t done anything to reassure either of them.
It was Beca’s final night in their Brooklyn apartment. Her stuff was packed in boxes that were stacked around their tiny living space, and her clothes were in a suitcase by the door.
They’d been dating for a few months and it had been going better than either could have dreamed.
And then Beca got the call from Theo. DJ Khaled was ready to meet with her. He was going to help her put out an album - he’d even let her sing on one of his new songs - and she had to come out to L.A..
“For how long?” Chloe asked when Beca told her the good news.
“I think… I think it’s gonna be permanent.”
Chloe wasn’t coming with her. Not yet. She still had to finish her final year of veterinary school.
And so despite their promises and plans and talk of how they could handle long-distance, Chloe felt like they were breaking up.
“What time is your flight in the morning?” Chloe asked, looking down at the time on her phone.
“Ten,” Beca said, finishing another beer. A half-eaten pizza sat on the table in front of them, with several empty bottles of beer.
“It’s getting late,” Chloe said, doing everything she could not to cry.
“Yeah,” Beca said, making no move to get up. She let out a small laugh. “I don’t wanna go to bed. I don’t want to fall asleep. I don’t want it to be tomorrow.” She wiped her eyes with her hand. “I don’t wanna go. Not yet.”
So stay, Chloe thought. Stay with me.
“I know,” Chloe said. “But you can’t waste this opportunity Bec. It’s everything you’ve worked for. Everything you’ve wanted.”
Beca shook her head. “I just wanted to be a producer. I never wanted to be in the spotlight. You’re everything I’ve ever wanted, and I don’t want to lose you.”
“You won’t,” Chloe said. “Remember, I promised you that you could never lose me. I meant it. You just have to wait for me.”
“Of course I will,” Beca said. “I don’t care how long it takes.”
Chloe smiled. “I don’t plan on failing vet school like I failed Russian Lit. 7 months, and then I’m packing what’s left of this place and turning up at your front door.”
Beca grinned and kissed Chloe, tugging her into her lap. “I can’t wait,” she said between kisses.
“Just make sure you wait for me.”
-
The next day was a whirlwind for Beca. It was a mad rush to get to the airport on time, and she and Chloe had only enough time for the quickest goodbye before she had to run to her gate.
Theo met her at the airport, and took her straight to the studio to meet DJ Khaled and his team, and she didn’t end up getting to her new apartment until close to 11 pm.
Her stuff wasn’t due to arrive until Monday - Theo had arranged for a moving company to collect it from Brooklyn and drive it to L.A. - so she only had what was already in the apartment and what she’d brought in her suitcase.
It turns out that wasn’t a lot.
She wondered if the money left over from the advance she’d gotten from the record label would be enough to cover the cost of a car as she dragged her suitcase into her new bedroom. She’d need to make a trip to Target, and she didn’t think she’d survive walking there in the L.A. heat.
The apartment was nice and clean, but Beca wished more than anything that she was back in Brooklyn with Chloe.
Today had been amazing, and all she wanted to do was tell Chloe about it.
As if reading her mind, Chloe’s name popped up on her phone.
“Hey,” Beca said, smiling when she answered. “Why are you still up?”
“I wanted to hear your voice,” Chloe said. “Plus I can’t sleep without you.”
“Same,” Beca said. “It doesn’t help that my bedroom literally consists of a bed frame and a mattress.”
“No sheets?”
“Nope. Not even a pillow.”
“Bummer,” Chloe said.
“Put your camera on,” Beca said. “I wanna show you around and I wanna see you.”
“Yeah, I kinda can’t right now,” Chloe said.
“How come?” Beca asked, frowning.
“You’ll see.”
Beca heard a knock at the door and felt a jolt of fear. Who would be calling on her at this time of night?
“Hang on, Chlo’, someone’s at the door. If you hear me get murdered can you call the cops?”
“That isn’t funny,” Chloe said.
Whoever they were knocked again.
“Do you think I can pretend I’m not home?”
“All the lights are on and you don’t have curtains yet,” Chloe said.
“Yeah, good point. Wait. How do you know that?”
They knocked again.
“Are you gonna get that?” Chloe asked.
Beca swallowed. “Chloe?”
Knock-knock.
Beca opened her front door, and almost burst into tears at the sight of Chloe standing there.
“What are you doing here?”
“School doesn’t start for another week, and I just…” Chloe moved into the apartment and closed the door behind her.
She then got down on one knee.
“I couldn’t wait,” she said.
“Chloe…”
“Beca Mitchell,” Chloe said, tears shining in her eyes as she pulled out a ring. “Will you marry me?”
“Yeah,” Beca choked out, dropping to her knees and pulling Chloe into a hug, kissing her messily as they both laughed and cried. “I love you.”
“I love you too,” Chloe said, sliding the ring onto Beca’s finger.

Ahm. .39 please? Thanks!*
39. “Please come home, I miss you”
First of all thank you so much for sending me this, it was my first prompt ever! I really hope you like it, it came out way longer than I expected 
WARNING: this was written listening to ‘Lover’on shuffle, so read it at your risk
Mostly based on Taylor Swift’s ‘False God’ but honestly it’s inspired by Taylor swift in general 
Words count: 4809
Rating: I’d say a light M, there’s no smut but sex is mentioned and implied many times, also there’s a bit of cursing…
We still worship this love
Beca was on her first (of many, hopefully) Europe tutor. After signing with DJ Khaled two years before, her career in pop music took a leap and she had published two albums already, the first one took her around the US for a sold out tour that set the ground for her second one to be a worldwide success, which lead her to Paris, Nice, Rome, Milan, Berlin, Dublin and currently London. She had still two cities in the UK before moving to Holland, Spain and finally head back home, home where her girlfriend was waiting for her.
Since they got together Beca and Chloe had spent more time apart than in the other’s presence; the two best friends had very recently found the words and the courage to talk about what their feelings for each other really were and Beca had to leave for her tour almost immediately after that.
-
Beca didn’t really think about the consequences when she wrote a painful song about pinning / unrequited love, way too detailed for Chloe or any of their aca-friends to have any doubts on who the person she wrote it for was, and the release of said song as the first single of her newest album lead to their group chat blowing up for a day straight and a sobbing redhead showing up to the front door of Beca’s apartment in the West Village. Beca feared the worst at the sight of her friend that upset about her feelings, but she soon found out that those feelings were the same ones Chloe had bottled up for as long as the brunette did. 
They spent the night together, kissing and exploring each other’s bodies, learning how to please one another, discovering how it felt to be with a woman and how it felt to be with someone they both had spent years fantasizing about. In the morning, when Beca woke up curled up to Chloe’s naked back and realized it wasn’t just another one of her dreams, she felt an happiness she’d never felt before, it was like she’d been asleep for this whole time and she was just now seeing the daylight.
She felt the redhead stretch in her arms and turn to face her with a soft, calm smile “good morning” she whispered before gently kissing her “I love you" answered Beca after their lips parted, which caused Chloe to kiss her again, more firmly. It wasn’t the first time any of them phrased her feelings like that, they shared many ‘I love you’s during the night, but it still sounded new to them and made both of their hearts burst out of happiness. When their kiss came to an end Beca pushed back a little to be able to look at Chloe, the golden morning light illuminating her face and body made the petite girl think she didn’t want to see anything else for the rest of her life. Just Chloe.
The group chat was still blowing up, ignored from the both of them until then. “Oh my God, when are they going to calm down?” groaned Beca and Chloe giggled shifting under the sheets to reach for Beca’s phone on the nightstand before going back to snuggle into the brunette, she made sure to cover every ‘indecent’ part of their bodies before snapping a selfie of them and sending it to the Bellas chat “DUDE!” gasped the brunette grabbing her phone but it was too late, the photo was delivered and their friends were already starting to completely lose their minds about it. “Why did you do this?” she whined staring at her screen filling with celebrative messages and a ‘FUCKING FINALLY! Pun intended 😏😏 ✂️✂️✂️✂️’ by Stacey that made Beca’s mouth fall open and go incredibly dry, while she was blushing in horror and embarrassment. “To answer to all their questions at once” explained Chloe taking the buzzing device from Beca’s hands and abandoning it somewhere on the bed before starting kissing along the brunette’s neck making her inhale sharply “yeah, o-okay but… we better put this away" she observed escaping from the redhead’s arms and putting her phone back on the nightstand “…unless you want to send them a video too" she joked with a fake annoyed voice that made Chloe giggle and move to straddle the brunette “Nope. This is just for us" she purred pushing her back on her back, looking at her with the sweetest sexy expression Beca had ever seen. She’d never wrapped her mind around the fact that Chloe could be so incredibly hot and adorable at the same time, it took her breath away.
“I have to take off next week” sighed Beca sadly; they were still laying on her bed on top of each other, Beca’s right ear near Chloe’s navel while the fingertips of her left hand traced random paths on her abdomen “I know…” huffed Chloe, gently stroking dark locks of hair.  
Suddenly Beca sat up straight startling the other girl a little “we can do this, right?” she asked panicking “hey…” whispered Chloe sitting up and cupping Beca’s cheek “…I’ve waited too long for this to let it go now, we’ll make things work" she assured her “I want to be with you and a couple of weeks apart won’t stop me" she added “it’s almost a month Chlo… with different time zones and-“ Chloe cut her off with a kiss. Beca was always the pessimist between them and the redhead was used to having to convince her things were gonna be alright, but this time she felt like her life depended on that. “Listen to me, do you trust me?” she asked “always” answered Beca without losing a beat “then would you close your eyes and just jump in this with me? I know it’s gonna work, I feel it" she begged her touching her own chest “can you do it for me?” she added swallowing, it was barely whispered, so quietly that Beca wouldn’t have heard it if Chloe wasn’t basically sitting on her lap. The brunette delicately wrapped her fingers around her wrist, gently tugging at it and lacing their fingers together “I would die for you" she assured looking into the watery blue eyes in front of her with such a seriousness that let Chloe knew she really meant that, it made her chest rise and a hint of a smile appeared on her face “please don’t ever do that" she breathed out resting her forehead on Beca’s.
-
“We were crazy to think Crazy to think that this could work Remember how I said I’d die for you? We were stupid to jump In the ocean separating us Remember how I’d lie to you?”
Things went downhill pretty quickly when Beca left. The two girls were just in the honeymoon phase of their relationship and only the fact of not being able to be all over each other the whole time was enough to drive them crazy. To worsen the situation Chloe had her finals at vet school and Beca had those goddamn paparazzi following her everywhere.
The petite girl was always very closed up and kept her personal life super private, she never thought about officially coming out because it was nobody’s business and she couldn’t see why that mattered. She told her friends she was bisexual a few years ago and was pretty sure her father always knew. None of them made so much of a deal about it, as it should be, but the most obsessed fans were speculating on her sexuality and constantly talking about the fact that choosing George Michael’s ‘Freedom! ’90’ as a debut song was a pretty clear statement and her not mentioning a man in the single nor in the whole album just increased their theory about her being gay. Some of them even guessed the song was about her former college friend and co-captain Chloe Beale, stating that they always had good chemistry during the Bellas’ performances, but they were wondering why she wasn’t on tour with her (like if she had nothing else to do with her life). So yeah, everyone was up in her business and she hated it. They were constantly taking pictures of her making up stories about her and Theo or her and some member of her security team or her and some random people she didn’t even know.
Beca and Chloe were constantly fighting about nothing; their conversations usually started with the right foot, but as soon as one of them said something that wasn’t exactly what the other wanted to hear things escalated quickly.
“are you still or already awake? These time zones are messing with my brain. Anyway I just got to the hotel room after the concert, I really wish you were here with me right now" lamented Beca through the phone “how’s the study going?” “ugh it’s so boring, please come home, I miss you” whined Chloe in response “baby…” sighed Beca heavily “you know I can’t do that, there’s a contract and… and even if there wasn’t one, there’s people who’s been waiting to see me for months, they look forward to this! I can’t let them down like t-“ “you mean you don’t want to” interrupted her Chloe. Beca wasn’t that keen on the idea of having screaming people who worshipped her and would do anything to see her, but she felt the sense of responsibility that came from all of that and she didn’t want to disappoint anyone. After a pause Beca cleared her throat and replied “no… no I don’t want to, that would be rude and unprofessional.” “of course you don’t” stated the redhead “why should you? You’re living your best life, sorry for being so boring that I have to study to be a vet and can’t be your groupie” “excuse me? My what now!? Where did that come from?” exclaimed Beca outraged.  
“And you can’t talk to me when I’m like this Daring you to leave me just so I can try and scare you You’re the West Village You still do it for me, babe They all warned us about times like this They say the road gets hard and you get lost When you’re led by blind faith Blind faith”
After not getting a response she scoffed “you know what Chloe? I can’t talk to you when you’re like this. Call Amy or Flo… see whoever’s in New York and go get some fresh air because these fucking finals are driving you insane" “yeah sure, blame it on my exams, on the fact that I’m stressed out, say what you want. The truth is that our lives are different, you should just break up with me… I’m just a burden for you, you should be out there enjoying your celebrity life" Beca knew Chloe wasn’t serious about that, that she was just trying to provoke her for some reason, to scare her maybe, and in all honesty she succeeded. Only the thought of not being with Chloe, to lose her, knocked all the air out of Beca’s lungs ‘Chlo, you know you’re everything to me, don’t say things like that please’ was what she wanted to say, but instead what came out of her mouth was “bullshit! Stop throwing your fucking insecurities at me Beale, it’s not my fault if you think that of yourself” and then hung up.
She knew she screwed up, if Chloe was insecure about their relationship her job was to let her know how solid it was, how deep her feelings for her were, not to yell at her like that, but Beca was like a wild animal (a rather small one, like a raccoon or one of those flying squirrels) and as such she tended to bite when bothered. Fighting with Chloe was the absolute worst, no matter who ‘won’ the fight, she always ended up wounded or at least bruised, it pained her to hurt Chloe just as much as it did when Chloe hurt her. She knew it was the situation they were fighting, that they didn’t really mean any of the things they said during their fights, but it hurt all the same.
Aubrey warned them, she flown all the way to New York, sat them down one evening before Beca left and told them it would have been hell, that they would have been frustrated most of the time, that Beca would have hated the tour and Chloe wouldn’t have passed her exams as brilliantly as she could have. But they (Beca actually) fought her about it, explaining to her how what they had was stronger and different and that they would have been okay, that she knew that. Chloe’s heart felt so full seeing her girlfriend, who was so pessimistic about it only a couple of days before, so sure about them; just because Chloe promised her that morning they spent in her bed. And she believed her, she believed her like people believed in God, with no proof, just blind faith.
“I’m not saying that I have doubts about your feelings for each other, I saw this grow before my own eyes, I’d be a fool to doubt that. I’m just saying that this is the worst way to start a relationship. You should wait until the tour is over and you’re both in the same city again" stated the tall blonde standing in front of them in a power pose with her hands on her hips “Aubrey, I feel like I’ve been waiting for my whole life. I can’t wait anymore.” At that confession Beca made looking into Chloe’s eyes Aubrey let her arms fell on her sides with a sigh “okay. But don’t say I didn’t warn you"
“But we might just get away with it Religion’s in your lips Even if it’s a false god We’d still worship We might just get away with it The altar is my hips Even if it’s a false god We’d still worship this love We’d still worship this love We’d still worship this love”
The night after the fight Beca was a wreck and her concert wasn’t as good as the others. When Chloe read about it on the online gossip magazines she felt terrible. She hated it when Beca was upset and knowing the reason was her, destroyed her. She wanted to support Beca and celebrate her and be there for her, not bring her down and less than anything she wanted to set her free like she told her the other night. When she knew Beca had arrived in Manchester she sent her a text
Hey babe, give me a call when you’re settled? Promise I won’t pick up another fight. Love you xx (♡C)
Love you too (-> ♡C)
Was all Beca replied, she was tired from the sleepless night and still grumpy from the fight but she appreciated the message and didn’t want to make things worse by ignoring it or replying something stupid. Chloe took her reply as a win, at least the brunette still felt like letting her know she loved her.
Chloe let out an heavy breath running her fingers through red locks, she couldn’t wait to tell Beca how sorry she was and how much she loved her. The sudden buzzing of her phone made her jump and then smile “hey b-“ “I was an idiot” Beca’s voice through the phone interrupted her and she raised her eyebrows in surprise “I don’t know why I always do this” continued the brunette “maybe it’s some sort of self destructive behaviour or maybe the trauma from my parents’ divorce” she scoffed “but anyway… I tend to break the things that I love, but I won’t do that to us. I-I don’t wanna hurt you, like… ever! It’s the most painful thing for me to do. And I don’t want to lose what we have” she stopped to take a breath and Chloe took the opportunity to jump in “Becs that’s… that wasn’t your fault, I’m the one who should apologise for being an idiot and saying stupid things” “Chloe… you and me, that’s my whole world. That’s what I should have told you instead of snapping at you okay? I should have told you that I count the days and the miles that separate me from you and even if this life is crazy and exciting, I don’t want it if I can’t share it with you" “Beca…”  “and I am so proud of you for graduating at vet school baby, don’t ever think I’m not, okay?” she added with a soft voice “Beca I love you so, so much. I don’t… I don’t know what to say y-your speech was…” sobbed the redhead “you don’t have to say anything I just needed to make sure you knew exactly how I feel" “I do. I know how you feel because it’s exactly how I feel Beca, I-I love you more than anything in the world and I just want to make you happy” Chloe wasn’t crying anymore but she still struggled to keep her words even “you do, more than anything” answered Beca with a smile.
They talked for hours until Beca had to leave to get the last things ready before the sound check “have fun baby, I love you" “oh I will, Amy is coming to see me, she asked me three VIP passes and I’m not sure what to expect from her… oh by the way she said she’s streaming the whole thing live on her Instagram… so you can try to watch some of it maybe? Though I know it’s a crazy time for you so if you’d rather sleep is okay, don’t worry" “I wouldn’t miss it for the world” said Chloe before hanging up.
“Hi guys, thank you all for coming! Uhm… I know most of you have the setlist for this and I promise you, I’ll sing all those songs, but tonight I wanted to open with a song for my girlfriend” at that the fans went crazy, some of them screamed so hard that Beca feared for their vocal chords. When the crowd calmed down a rearranged version of ‘The Only Exception’ by Paramore (that Beca had mixed in half an hour before the concert) started playing.  
After the concert Beca found a lot of texts from her friends who had apparently been watching Amy’s live:
BECA THAT WAS ACA-AWESOME OMG SO ROMANTIC!!! 💕💕💕😻 (Legacy)
I love you. You’re worth the risk too baby ♡ call me when you can, I’ll be awake (♡C)
I am proud of you Mitchell! And for the first time, I’m glad I was wrong ;) (Posen)
OMG Beca did you just came out to the world like this!?!? You’re such a rockstar!  (Jesse)
YO GIRL, the concert was amazing, as usual 💥💥💥 (CR)
Someone is whippeddddd 😜😜😜😜 proud of you, babe 💋 (Stace)
Love wins!! 🌈🌈🌈🦄🦄🦄🌈🌈🌈 (Jessica?Ashley??)
Wow Beca, amazing concert! Didn’t expect that first part 😍 (Flo)
Love wins!! 🌈🌈🌈🦄🦄🦄🌈🌈🌈 (Ashley?Jessica??)
Hey I saw the live, it was great!! (Benji)
👏🏼👏🏼 💪 (Lilly)
She only quickly replied to Jesse and Stacey before calling Chloe immediately
Wow dude, I was actually gonna call you tomorrow about that… I mean, I didn’t want to erase our story or anything… that song was a bit extreme… (-> Jesse)
Shut up bitch! (-> Stace)
“Hey baby, you should be sleeping” “how am I supposed to sleep after that!?” asked Chloe, her voice was bubbly and Beca could hear how wide her smile was, it made her smile too. To make Chloe happy was what she was in this World for, she was sure about it “that was the most romantic thing anyone ever did for me! I don’t know what I did to deserve you, honestly” “must have been something bad…” joked the pop star “so you’re not mad, right?” she checked even though the answer was pretty obvious “mad? Beca, the only mad I am is mad for you" “cheesy” laughed Beca “said the girl who just dedicated a love song to me during her own concert” scoffed Chloe “look babe, I gotta go, Amy decided we have to go get drunk to celebrate… in the end the one pass was for her date, he’s not that weird this time by the way, and the third one was for a dude she paid to hold her phone the whole time so she could enjoy the concert, can you believe that?” asked Beca laughing again “…I mean yeah, that’s totes something she would do" replied Chloe giggling “go have fun baby, I love you" “love you too, goodnight”
All cool. I know what we had and I know she’s something else, she always has been. I’m happy for you (Jesse)
🤐 (Stace)
Thank you Jesse (-> Jesse)
-
After that night to her concerts started to appear pride flags and Beca had to admit it felt nice, but what really got to her was one girl in Spain that stopped her on the ‘Ramblas’ while she was visiting Barcelona “hi you’re Beca Mitchell, right? I don’t wanna bother you I just wanted to thank you for what you did in Manchester. I am a lesbian and to know that my favourite female singer has a girlfriend makes me so happy, you have no idea how much this means to me. You have given me the courage to come out to my best friend and to my brother” Her eyes were watery as she spoke and Beca just looked at her speechless “representation matters, and I wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart” she concluded and Beca, for the first time in her life, felt the need to hug someone who wasn’t Chloe, maybe it was because the girl must have been thirteen years old or maybe because she was so considerated to respect her space and not asking for a hug or a photo, but she decided that it was almost certainly because of what she said, because she’d never thought about being a role model or someone that made others feel like they belong, that there is nothing wrong with them “uhm, you want a hug?” she asked screwing up her face cause she knew how awkward she sounded “oh ohmygod really?” answered the girl over the moon “c’m here" she said hugging her.
-
Beca couldn’t wait to be back home, before leaving she had given Chloe the keys of her apartment and she knew she would have founded her there waiting for her. What Beca didn’t know was that Chloe had organized a little ‘welcome back’ party with all the Bellas, only Amy, Flo and Stacey could make it but it was still something.
The pop star didn’t see that coming and she had to admit it was a nice surprise to have a small reunion with some of her best friends after being far from home for so long, but despite their presence in her apartment and the scare they gave her screaming “surprise” when she opened the door, the first thing she did was to go hug Chloe, who met her halfway. The two girls hugged for a long time whispering how much they missed each other and how happy they were to be in the same room again. After a while Beca pulled back to look at her girlfriend, still holding her waist while Chloe had her arms wrapped around the brunette’s neck. They were looking at each other with so much love and happiness in their eyes that the room was frozen, their friends were standing there looking at them with proud expressions, and then  there was Amy who was taking pictures of them, the two girls didn’t notice any of it, they were too busy staring at each other’s lips licking or biting their owns, until Chloe made the smallest move towards Beca, knowing that the girl didn’t like pda she was being very careful to any sign that the brunette made to understand if she was okay with kissing in front of their friends, even if she really wanted to. While Chloe was worrying about that Beca crashed their lips together and the two girls shared a passionate kiss that ended only because  the ‘woop’s and wolf whistles coming from Amy and Stacey were starting to piss Beca off.
Only when she was satisfied with how she greeted Chloe, Beca went to say hi to her other ‘guests’. They spent the evening drinking and chatting, but even if they were socializing with their friends Beca and Chloe were never far for too long, they would lean over the other to pour a drink or brushed their hands on the other’s back passing her while moving around the living room or less subtlety going to sit on each other laps every time one of them was chatting on the couch. At dinner time they decided to order Chinese food and eat it sitting in circle on the living room floor like they used to do in Barden (even if Beca’s dining table was more than big enough for all of them). This time Chloe was sitting between Beca’s opened legs and the brunette was leaning towards not to be cut out of the conversation. It wasn’t the best position to eat, but the two girls needed to be as close as possible. After she finished eating Beca wrapped her arms around Chloe and leaned her forehead on the taller girl’s shoulder yawning “girls, I think this is our clue” stated Flo starting to collect the food boxes off the pavement “oh no leave it, I can take care of that" said Chloe starting to move “nonsense” stopped her Stacey helping Flo “I’m not throwing you out guys, I’m just-“ another yawn cut her off “just very tired” she added rubbing her eyes “don’t worry shawshank” said Amy suspiciously gently “we know you can’t wait to have us out of the way” she added with a wink and a way exaggerated bite of her lip that made Chloe laugh “I think I’m gonna take her to bed tonight, but there will be no funny business involved this time" she said still laughing and Beca just hummed, too tired to form words.
As soon as the girls left, Beca and Chloe were laying in bed curled up together. “I’m sorry there’s no funny business… I really want it to be but I am literally dying” apologised Beca snuggling closer to the warm body beside her “hey, it’s totes fine. I’m happy to just be able to hold you right now, I don’t need anything more than this" assured her Chloe before kissing her forehead.
The next morning Beca woke up much earlier than Chloe, due to the jetlag and decided to wake her beautiful girlfriend up by going down on her. Chloe appreciated it so much that they stayed in bed until noon having the best sex Beca ever had. They were about to get up when both of their phones buzzed, it was the group chat. Amy had sent a bunch of photos of them hugging and kissing writing ‘BOOM’ under the last one
Oh come on Amyyyy! Now I have to worry about paparazzi even in my home? WTF ( -> Bellas💕)
Beca was nervous. They had just finished lunch and she decided it was a good time to ask Chloe to move in with her. She tried to dry her sweaty palms on her jeans before hugging her from behind while she was washing the dishes “stop this" she told her placing a soft kiss under her left ear “I’m gonna finish it later, you don’t have to do it all" she added letting the tip of her nose brush on the shell of that same ear “okay" shivered Chloe drying her hands before turning to hug her and kiss her slowly “so, I was thinking…” started Beca biting her lip nervously “I know this might sound crazy but… why don’t you move in with me? You’ve been basically living here already and I know you love this place! Maybe this is soon but… we didn’t really follow the rules since the beginning so… why start now?” “yes" “I mean we’ve lived together already and it only made me fall harder for you if anything, I know all your habits and I learned to live with them and you did the same with mine and-“ “Beca. I said yes” repeated Chloe with a wide smile “yes?” echoed Beca excited “yes” whispered again the redhead.
They were lying on the couch and Beca was staring at one of the pics Amy sent them, the one that captured the moment right before their kiss, it was the quintessence of happiness “can I post this on my Instagram?” she asked turning the screen to let Chloe see it “I would love that" answered the redhead with a wide smile “is this about what that girl told you in Spain?” “Mhm” nodded the brunette “and this would make those stupid paparazzi stories stop” she added and then stopped to think “but it would put YOU on their radar… are you sure? Do you really want to live in this fucking fishbowl with me?” “baby, I want to live with you I don’t care about the paparazzi” she assured her and Beca kissed her before posting the photo with the caption ‘finally back into her arms 😍’.

3-5, 15, 35-37!
3.    a song tied to a specific moment in your life
after i took my dog to the vet and basically found out that he was really sick, i played the Italian Yu-Gi-Oh! theme on repeat while we drove from the vet to the animal hospital. I can still listen to it because the song fucking rocks, but it’s always going to be associated with that moment
4.     a song that is not sung in your native language
Jacques Brel’s Ne Me Quitte Pas has always been so important to me (and also I got in trouble in French class once for saying that Jacques Brel had horse teeth which in retrospect was rude but I had meant it in the most complimentary way imaginable, i think he is so handsome) but also this song has super informed my love of a specific type of romantic angst. “laisse-moi devenir l’ombre de ton ombre, l’ombre de ta main, l’ombre de ton chien“ let me be the shadow of your shadow, the shadow of your hand, the shadow of your dog UNNGH
5.     a song over 5 minutes long
Dolly Parton’s Stairway to Heaven Love this original song that Dolly wrote and that belongs to Dolly and Dolly alone 
15.   something to BELT SHAMELESSLY/do DIVA HANDS to
hard to pick just one but.... Charlene’s I’ve Never Been To Me!!
35.   a great song you discovered thanks to a movie
Ronne Blakley’s Dues from Nashville! Because I Love To Cry!!
36.   a great song you discovered thanks to television
Mississippi Mud by Black Blood and Chocolate Pickles (which was in Hemlock Grove)
37.   a song you’re ashamed to have in your music library
ugh probably For Free, the DJ Khalid/Drake joint because like... fuck him but also the song kinda slaps

University Challenge 2017/18, THE FINAL: review
St John’s, Cambridge: 145
Merton, Oxford: 100
Behold! Something to be truly proud of on this St George’s Day! The arrival of something unutterably exciting! No, it’s not the birth of the new royal baby but the final of University Challenge 2017/18! Oh wait, what? It’s an Oxbridge final? Hmm, I take it back. Gimme dat babyking.
Tumblr media
Sketch by @ChesterScribble
Team Vibe:
St John’s: Mid-century modern, circa 1969, Palm Springs
Merton: Arts and Crafts, circa 1910s, The Red House, Bexleyheath
Grandad Count: Wiberg would quell any high jinks from the other seven with one curt word. I’m more scared of him than of Jeremy! (Both teams actually have an average age of 23.)
Gender Diversity Count: Two, ie two more than last year.
Tumblr media
Style News: Merton were all very inoffensive in pastel - UGH! Over at St John’s, Captain Devine-Stoneman and Hazell The Vet clearly decided the final meant turning it up a notch, and by turning it up a notch I mean throwing on the only shirt, jacket and tie in their respective wardrobes. Someone get the Queer Eye quintet on those boys! Thankfully, St John’s McKeown was sporting a pillar-box red shirt, which transpired, at the trophy-giving, to be a perfectly exquisite dress.
Cult Hero Of The Episode: Ahhh, Merton. I confess I totally expected these bruvs to win. Peplow as usual was quick off the mark, before Captain Woodland did her thing, answering a slew of bonuses and brushing off Wiberg’s feeble attempts to help her at probability. I adored her delicately blinking ‘oh...’ if the team’s guess was incorrect. But alas! They crashed in incorrectly several times, Woodland included, and St John’s began to pick up their game.
Tumblr media
McKeown stretched her arms, sat up a little straighter, and started casually tossing out starter question answers like they were orders of drinks at a bar: ‘Danse Macabre’; 'corpuscles’; ‘ontological’; ‘snail’; as well as rattling off a line of a Marvell ode. Sure, the bromance of Devine-Stoneman and Hazell teamed up for some bonuses on organic compounds and spectroscopies, but without McKeown, they would have been nothing. All hail our leader!
Tumblr media
Handsome Person of the Episode: I preferred Hazell with the beard and jumper. Rosie McKeown, you are glorious in all ways and I bow before you.
Horror Round: ‘Three bonuses on the ineffable, Merton.’
Tumblr media
Dream Bonus Question Round: I am beyond proud that I got 3 out of 4 in the critical theorists word-cloud round (Derrida, Judith Butler and Foucault).
Regular Classical Fail By Composition PhD-owning Composer, Kerry Andrew: University Challenge have been pleasingly notable on featuring female musicians this year, have you noticed? So rejoice! The subject of this bonus round is on music conducted by Marin Alsop in the BBC Proms. Commiserate! They are all from operas. I spent the whole time going ‘Rule Britannia is from AN OPERA???’ Also, I didn’t get the Handel.
Speaking of female musicians…
Trophy Presentation Bonus Feature: Oh. My. God. I’d had my money on Mary Beard presenting it this year, but UniChall went one better, with Master of the Queen’s Music and all-round composer legend, Judith Weir. I can tell you from personal experience that Judith is the most gorgeously humble and splendid person, and it was sooo cool to see her on there. 
Judith Weir fun anecdote #1: I played a set at my birthday party recently under the DJ name Judith Weird.
Judith Weir fun anecdote #2: she has done tutorials at the composition summer school where I teach. My staff and I prepped our students for her impending arrival by singing the words ‘JUDITH WEIR IS HERE’ over and over to the tune of the national anthem in choral harmony and with a piano part, not realising that she was standing at the door. 
Jezza Watch: There he was, swapping awkward pleasantries with Dame Judith, as if both of them were at a party but really wanted to be at home with a Horlicks and the last few episodes of Breaking Bad. ‘It’s amazing what people know, isn’t it?’ he said, affably, which is quite an about-turn from barking meanly at everyone for not knowing about macroscopic particles, like he normally does.
Kerry and Andy’s Score: 15! Not bad, given the excitement. I got 9, because I know about Turkish wars, American poets and early English kings, y’all.
Tumblr media
Brain Food: Andy’s birthday! We went out for a stonkingly good Sri Lankan curry in Tooting (ask for the green banana bhajis at Apollo Banana Leaf).
I’ll leave you with an après-series photo of these bad boys (by which I mostly mean GIRL), with the bonus of Hazell’s beard being back. Note Levin’s unyielding polo-neck/jacket combo.
Tumblr media
Tweets of the Day:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Please feel free to share, retweet, etc, and tell me if you’ve enjoyed reading. I’m mostly a musician but a writer now too, and every little helps. Look! I wrote a novel which has recently been published!
