“You’re staring.”

Changkyun’s cheeks immediately heated up at being caught, a smile breaking across his features. He turned his face away from yours and stared up at the sky above the two of you. Lately this had been his favorite spot to take you to, always late at night. It wasn’t too hard to access but just far away enough from anyone to stumble upon it while you were there. It was a spot that allowed you to get lost in each other easily. There was nothing else to immerse yourself in except the person with you and the sky. Now, just before midnight, it was a pitch black background littered with what looked like big flecks of glitter. And yet even with the beautiful scenery, Changkyun still couldn’t help but look at you instead.

You pulled the joint that was burning between your fingers up to your mouth and took a drag from it before Changkyun’s hand came up to silently ask for his turn. Your hands lingered a second longer than necessary as you passed it to him, studying his features as he smoked. Now he was the one to catch you staring. “Like what you see?”

“I always do.”

He smirked, using the fingertips of his free hand to push the hair away from his eyes, “So, I’ve been meaning to tell you . . . one of my friends is throwing a party tomorrow night and invited me and the guys. I was just wondering if you would want to join us? Y’know, as my plus one?”

The invitation was out of left field so you couldn’t help but look shocked from it. His expression turned into worry when he noticed your reaction and quickly added, “You don’t have to if you don’t want to though.”

You shook your head, “No, I would love to go. We’ve just never hung out, like, with other people.”

Come to think of it, Changkyun realized you were right. The two of you met in a music store four months ago, bumping into each other when you reached for the same Elhae album. Trouble in Paradise; it was the last one on the shelf. You couldn’t deny that it was slightly awkward at first. You both quickly told the other sorry and that they could have it, to which you both refused each other. That’s when you laughed and noticed how cute he was. He was feeling the same so he was beyond ecstatic when you offered to split the cost of the album if he agreed to listen to it with you at your place. And that was how your first hook up came to be. By the seventh track you were bringing the song’s title to life on your bed and next thing you knew it turned into a somewhat common occasion. He would come to your house for a smoke and a fuck and sometimes a movie night on his days off. But never had you hung out outside the confines of your apartment. You weren’t even sure you knew what he did in his free time. All you knew was that he worked in a music studio with six other guys and travelled sometimes.

“Shit, yeah, I guess you’re right,” he took another drag before handing it back to you, “Well I’d really like you to meet the guys. They’ve been bugging me about you ever since I mentioned you to them. They’re starting to tease me that you’re not real.”

“What do they think you do when we hang out then?”

To that he shrugged then scoffed a laugh, “Probably hide out somewhere to jerk off in private.”

You rolled your eyes before smiling, “Not too far from the truth.”

“I can assure you, my time with you is much better than jerking off.”

“How romantic,” you whispered sarcastically. You had extinguished the joint and flicked it away from you before leaning over to place a soft kiss against his jaw. The smallest of sighs left his parted lips, his hands finding their way around your waist to pull you closer. Your lips found his in a tender make out session that you’ve experienced multiple times now, but somehow always felt better from the previous ones. Before it could escalate into something more you pulled away to check the time on your lockscreen. Half past midnight.

“We should get going. I have work at eight.”

Changkyun propped himself up on his elbows, bringing his foot up a little on the ground to help him before he stood. His eyes followed you closely as you stood, the skirt you wore hiking up just enough for him to see your safety shorts underneath. The sight caused his teeth to catch his lower lip before following you up.

“So about tomorrow night?”

You hoisted your backpack purse over your shoulders, “What do I wear?”

His heart beat against his chest, just imagining the two of them going together, “Whatever you want, babe. You look good no matter what you wear.”

His hands that had settled on your waist were moving south at the slowest of paces, “But what’s your favorite you’ve seen me in?”

“Definitely you in my unbuttoned shirt and your legs covered in your sheets,” he spoke against the side of your throat, his hands subtly grabbing your ass.

You rolled your eyes for what had to be the third time tonight, “Seriously, Changkyun?”

“Okay, okay,” you could feel his teeth barely against your shoulder as he grinned, “Probably that black dress you wore with the fishnets.”

“Heels or boots?”

“Boots. Always boots.”

“Someone’s afraid of me being taller than them,” you teased in a sing-song tone.

Now he was rolling his eyes, “No. I just think boots looks cooler, and honestly? Way sexier.”

“Boots it is then,” you declared before pulling his lips to yours. The kiss ended just as quickly as it started and when it did you added, “Now I really have to go. Pick me up at mine tomorrow?”

“Seven p.m. sharp.”

At seven p.m. the next day you were checking yourself in the mirror as you waited for that familiar knock to come to your door. Three minutes pass and there it was. Changkyun stood on the other side in matching attire to yours, though that wasn’t saying much. His go-to outfits, nine times out of ten, were made up of black pieces. Only this time he had chains looping around his waist and around his neck, with rings adorning his fingers. His hair was styled seemingly professionally and in the perfect way to show off a new piercing.

“You got your eyebrow pierced?” you asked incredulously, your hands subconsciously reaching up to his face, leaning his chin back to better see it in the hallway lighting. He laughed, showing off the teeth you loved to see and feel and taste.

“Like it?”

“I love it,” your eyes momentarily met his before you turned to close your door. You leaned in close to him and whispered, “It makes you look ten times hotter than before. And that says a lot.”

His arm fell around your shoulders as he led you down the hall, “Just wait until we’re alone again. It’ll be even hotter, I promise you.”

Those words rang in your ear for a majority of the night. The only time you forgot them was when he introduced you to his friends at the party. You were focused on learning names, but also the strange amount of such attractive people shocked you into forgetting most things. First and foremost, all six of his friends looked just as attractive as him. You wondered if they were made in a factory. After a few drinks and conversations you found yourself away from Changkyun, but you weren’t too concerned. He proved to be a pretty sociable person, and it was a party after all. It was only natural to socialize even if it meant breaking away for a while.

You went to refill your drink when you were approached by one of the friends you had met earlier in the night.

“Enjoying yourself?”

You looked up into brown eyes and remembered his hair from earlier. The slightly long dark waves were unforgettable, “Oh, yeah. Hyungwon right?”

He smirked, “That would be me.”

His tall frame leaned against the counter beside you, a half-filled cup dangling from one of his hands, “So, what’s the story between you and him?”

“Changkyun?”

He nodded, taking a sip from his cup.

“Well, we met a few months ago and have hung out pretty often since then. I was under the impression he mentioned me before.”

“Yeah, he did. He just never said if you guys were something serious. I didn’t want to shoot my shot if you were.”

Your heart fluttered but you weren’t sure if it was nerves or butterflies. Maybe it was both? Either way your cheeks felt warm, “Honestly? We never really spoke about labels.”

That made him smile, “I like you, and if I can tell you anything, I’ve known Changkyun for a few years now. If he hasn’t asked you to be his girlfriend yet then there’s a good chance he won’t ask you at all.”

The comment didn’t necessarily hurt, but it certainly didn’t feel good. You had gone over a conversation similar to this in your head a few times. It usually happened during or after a hang out with Changkyun. Questions like ‘what are we?’ and ‘is this the right time to confess my feelings?’ have always intruded your thoughts. But now you felt like you were being faced with reality. If you had hung out for this long and never spoke about becoming exclusive, who’s to say he didn’t have other plans? Some that didn’t involve you?

“Sorry, was that a little harsh?”

You finally met eyes with Hyungwon and shook your head, “No, I just . . . I don’t think I’m in the mood for a relationship right now.”

That was a lie, but he couldn’t tell otherwise. You wanted more than anything to call Changkyun your boyfriend, but didn’t think he felt the same, especially now.

“Well, when you are, here’s my number,” he scribbled his number on the magnetic notepad that stuck precariously to the fridge next to me. He ripped the paper away and gently placed it in my hand. “And if it makes you more comfortable, it can be our little secret.”

He said the last part much quieter, almost as a whisper. Then he was gone as soon as he approached. His absence left you wanting to find Changkyun. You weren’t sure what for, but you knew as soon as you were in his company you wouldn’t feel so . . . well, not like you did at the moment. You found him chatting to one of the guys you met—Shownu—and a girl you hadn’t met. She was just as pretty as everyone else at the party and she was speaking to Changkyun when you approached them.

“-they’re on a file in my laptop. They need a little improvement, but I figured the best rapper and producer in Seoul could help me.”

Changkyun blushed slightly as a smile was put on his face, “Maybe he could. I’d love to come check them out sometime.”

“Cool, you have my number, so call whenever.”

With that she walked away just as he noticed you, his smile growing wider, “Hey, having fun?”

“Yeah,” you answered, almost too quickly, “I don’t mean to be a party pooper, but I have plans in the morning. I was wondering if you wouldn’t mind bringing me home.”

His expression faltered but not as hard as his heart did, “Y-yeah.”

He checked the time and, sure it was early in terms of a party, but definitely late in standard time. Shownu asked if he would return later to which he reassured him that he would. After a quiet drive home you kissed Changkyun’s cheek and walked yourself up to your apartment. As you undressed you came across the ripped piece of paper you had stuffed in the pocket of your dress. You contemplated doing what you wanted before deciding to go ahead with your gut. Your fingers typed away before waiting for a response that came almost immediately.

The response? Your house or mine?

Your lip caught between your teeth as you texted back.

Mine.

Photo

Meet Laureline Schmitt, my applicant for @eeriesims‘ Clary! I’m sorry I’m so bad at editing pfffttt.

P.S, outfit shown is her “date outfit” hehe <3

All the details are under the cut :o)

The General Deetz:

Name: Laureline Schmitt.

Birthday: Currently 28 years old, born on the 23rd of June 1991.

Astrological Info: Cancer sun, Scorpio moon, and Scorpio rising.

Myer-Briggs Personality Type: INFP-A

Species: Human but has witch-blood on her mother’s side which she’s very proud of.

Height: 5’7, but does stretches she found on the internet every night before bed in the hopes of becoming taller.

Sexual Orientation: Lesbian; doesn’t matter if you are cisgender or transgender, she just loves all the ladies.

Gender/Pronouns: Female, she/her pronouns.

Nicknames: Bun by her parents and close relatives and usually Laurie and Laurel by everyone else, but she really doesn’t mind.

Occupation in Glimmerbrook: She markets herself as somewhat of a “Ghost-Whisperer” - basically, she just helps the Glimmerbrook residences with any haunted house problems and is skilled at settling any issues between the living and dead to help maintain balance in the community. It combines her love of people, her good mediating skills, and her life-long fascination with ghosts. She isn’t paid super-highly considering the amount of work she puts in, but she just really enjoys her work. Her aunt always offers to send her some money here and there but Laurie is good at staying afloat.

Hobbies: She enjoys collecting antiques and fun knick-knacks, not necessarily for the purpose of curating and selling, but it does give her comfort to know she does have a flow of income to fall back on if it ever came down to it. She also enjoys reading and baking and all the nice homebody things.

Fun Facts:

1). She really loves anything peanut-butter flavoured (PB and J? Pssshh skip the J! On second thought, maybe even skip on the bread…..).

2). She religiously wears the green eyeliner her aunty gave her back when she was a teenager (yes she’s used the same eyeliner for 10+ years…sure, her aunty who’s a witch did put a never-ending spell on it but on the other hand GROSS!).

3). She HAS to go for a bike every night after dinner….if she doesn’t she can’t sleep.

4). Broke her nose as a kid when she tried to walk through a brick wall like the ghost character in her favourite show….she did not succeed but she now has a funny ice-breaker up her sleeve!

5). Is a firm believer in ditching the bra.

6). Her dad took her to get a tattoo when she was 18 and it doesn’t really have a particular meaning, she just thought it looked cool.

7). Laurel is not all too fussed about fashion, like the outfits she pulls together aren’t show-stopping, but she always likes to match her headscarf to whatever she puts on that day.

8). Her wardrobe is made up of exclusively op-shop finds and hand-me-downs from her aunt and mum. Well, apart from shoes, because she has quite wide feet.

9). She’s been a vegetarian for as long as she can remember; she never liked how eating meat made her feel, and she has a love for all animals, especially cats…..and frogs!

10). Speaking of cats, she does have a little black cat named “Bazzy” short for Basil whom she treats like a toddler (yes she did specifically adopt a black cat for the #witchaesthetic).

Questions, Questions, Questions!:

1). How did Laurel meet Clary?

Laurel was out on her usual evening bike-ride. As she was coasting past the public library, her eyes were drawn to the entry of the building. Specifically, someone going down the steps. Someone she’s never seen before. Laurel watched as the dark-haired beauty looked up, locked eyes with Laurel, and flashed a bright-white smile. All the way home, Laurel’s mind was cloudy as she replayed the moment. She didn’t really know what she felt about the girl she later learned was named Clary, but boy was she intrigued. Over the next few weeks, Laurel began noticing the newcomer as she ran her errands; it's not that she was too shy to say hi or anything, but she just enjoyed admiring her from a distance.

2). What was Laurel’s first impression of Clary?

In the moment, she was a little stunned by Clary; not necessarily in a “love at first sight” kind of way, but stunned nonetheless. It wasn’t one thing that caught Laurel’s attention, but a culmination of details; something about Clary’s whole aura just really drew Laurel in.

3). Laurel’s ideal dates?

Laurel finds people, including herself especially, are less awkward when they have something to do, an activity, to help ground the date, therefore for Laurel the perfect first-date would be biking to a beautiful private spot of Glimmerbrook for a picnic and a deep chat.

If this is say the third or fourth date she’d be more than eager to invite them over to her house for a movie night complete with caramel popcorn made on her wood-burning stove, or going to the beach to explore around the caves in Glimmerbrook and have a swim.

4). What’s Laurel’s ideal relationship?

In a romantic relationship, Laurel seeks a balanced give and take dynamic; while she loves to give and do for others, she does appreciate being cared for too; in the past she has been taken advantage of because she is so giving. Another thing Laurel really needs in a relationship is the opportunity to explain herself; she knows she can be a bit unaware, and most of the time her intentions are 100% good. She also would like someone who matches her calm energy and optimistic view on the world. Laurel is very positive and forgiving to herself and others, so negativity will start to weigh down on Laurel and cause her a lot of pain. She also wants a loving relationship, as Laurel herself is a very loving person, which has turned a couple of people away as she can move a little quickly in a relationship in some ways, even though she takes life so carefully usually; she just wants to hurry up to the ‘married for 40 years and we still lie in bed in the morning telling each other why we’re thankful for their existence’ kind of stage.

5). What’s Laurel’s Personality Like?:

Laurel is a very calm and loving gal. One of her big strengths is being able to objectively look at things and shrug negativity off; say if someone at the fruit shop yelled at her for using the scale because she didn’t see the sign asking customers to not use it, she’d just apologize, explain it was a simple mistake, and move on with her day; she’s usually not a dweller, she prefers to focus on the present.

She isn’t very adventurous, and doesn’t like to travel very far from Glimmerbrook, its her home. She thrives on the happiness of the people surrounding her, and does her best to make everyone happy, and is the perfect shoulder to cry on.

She doesn’t like complicatedness, she likes a breezy life, so she can have the tendency to distance herself from people who are hot and cold type of people, or people who don’t make their intentions clear, and can be impatient with people who take longer to open up, but she’s gotten a lot better over the years at being more open-minded and aware of others more nuanced feelings.

On that topic, she can struggle to see things from other’s pov in the sense that she can’t fully understand that not everyone can be as optimistic and idealistic as her, which is probably her worst flaw in a lot of ways.

this is why we’ve got to touch (sometimes words are not enough) - 1/1

Summary: Chloe's jealousy manifests differently than most people's, she thinks. It's born out of the fact that she can't remember specific parts of her life. She's so grateful that Beca is always more than willing to reassure her that they're right where they're supposed to be.

Set after the events of remember the day, about 2-3 years after.

word count: 7.6k

rated M (very much so)

I’m sure I received at least five requests asking for a Chloe interaction with Kommissar within this universe. I think people were primarily curious about how this would turn out, especially if Chloe didn't remember anything about DSM specifically.

I took a liberty and combined this with a request for pregnant!Chloe and pure smut. So here you go. Some kind of fluffy mess, I guess!

Title of the fic is from "Beautiful" by Bazzi. The one with Camila Cabello because I love that remix so much!

Also on AO3.

Chloe fiddles with her wedding band, a nervous habit in order to alleviate nerves. She still finds herself a little apprehensive when meeting new people, lest a memory bubbles into existence when she least expects it. She supposes she’s fairly safe here – it’s not like there are too many a capella people at this event, with the exception of herself, Beca, and Aubrey.

They‘re at an event – a benefit to raise money for art and music programs in high schools and middle schools in downtown Los Angeles.

Being married to Beca makes for an exciting life, Chloe supposes. Their date nights, as often as they occur, are never really the same too many evenings in a row. One night, it might be an award show. Another night, driving to the nearest In-N-Out and stuffing take-out in their faces.

Chloe smiles proudly as her wife stands on stage, delivering a speech about the rewards of having strong music programs and how her own college experience was shaped by a capella itself, though she looks a little sheepish as she says so. Chloe laughs at that, noting how shy Beca gets when it comes to talking about her own life experiences, even if she is still pretty much revered in the collegiate a capella scene.

“Who would have thought?” Aubrey comments. Chloe turns to smile at her long-time friend, grateful to have some company while Beca finds herself otherwise occupied. Aubrey is there on her own merit, mostly due to generous donations to the foundation and her own active part in continuously contributing to Barden’s music department.

Chloe allows Aubrey to clink her glass against her own – water for herself, wine for Aubrey – and smiles at how far they’ve come. Nearly two years after their wedding night and Chloe finds herself happily married. As well, she’s bubbling over with additional nervous excitement at the thought of starting a family with Beca Mitchell. Unconsciously, her hand drifts to her belly, seeking the comforting presence of the bump, just a bit more present than a few short weeks ago.

“Everything okay?” Aubrey asks, eyes alight with concern at Chloe’s sudden contemplative silence.

Chloe thinks that she’s never been happier.

It’s only about thirty minutes after Beca’s speech when Chloe’s good mood takes a sharp turn.

Beca leaves her side briefly to pick up a snack for them to share. Chloe had insisted on doing so herself, but Beca had immediately gestured at her to sit down.

“I know you two haven’t told too many people yet, but she’s making it fairly obvious,” Aubrey states, maneuvering around the chairs to sit next to Chloe.

“It’s cute,” Chloe defends. She fiddles with her dress. “Can you tell?” she asks, somewhat self-consciously.

“You look beautiful,” Aubrey says gently. “Trust me, that dress is doing you all kinds of favors and you can’t honestly tell me you haven’t noticed that Beca has barely been able to keep her hands off you.”

Chloe raises her eyebrow at her friend’s honesty. “Did you down another glass of champagne?”

“A little bit,” Aubrey admits, a sheepish smile spreading across her face. “No, but seriously, I’m happy for the two of you. I know that you both went through a lot to reach this point and I’m not just talking about picking a donor. You know.” She gestures.

Chloe nods absentmindedly, hand floating to her stomach. Her eyes drift over to Beca, spotting her instinctively. She admires the low cut back of Beca’s dress, resisting the urge to sigh at how smooth that expanse of skin is.

Her line of sight is interrupted when a hand smoothly places itself right on Beca’s back. Chloe quickly follows the offending hand and sees that it is attached to a very beautiful, very tall (if the way she towers over Beca is any indication) woman. Her hair is blonde and loose around her shoulders, with a sinfully beautiful dress painting her body. Chloe blinks and does a double take at the sight.

“Who is she?” she asks, so quietly that Aubrey nearly misses the question.

Aubrey glances around. “Who?”

Chloe gestures a little helplessly, unsure if she needs to stand up at all.

Aubrey’s eyes catch the light in Chloe’s eyes before she turns to scan the crowd again. Aubrey blinks, twisting to look around Chloe’s body to search for Beca. Her eyes land on Beca standing by the food, accompanied by a vaguely familiar blonde-haired woman. They appear to be engaged in a casual conversation. Aubrey frowns, blinking at the recognition she feels, though she can’t quite place it-

Then, as suddenly as the recognition comes, she remembers with startling clarity exactly who she is and why she feels a sudden spike of disdain. Realization settles in that Beca had declined to mention anything about the Bellas’ brief rivalry with DSM, but she supposes that it likely had slipped Beca’s mind as well. Still, she vaguely recalls Chloe’s previous annoyance towards this woman – the same woman who had once seemingly rendered an unflappable Beca Mitchell a stuttering mess of hormones and attraction. She swallows. "That's just Beca and some a capella alum," she says, though it’s with hesitance. “DSM, I believe. They’re talking,” Aubrey says, somewhat unhelpfully.

Chloe can’t recall ever seeing this woman before, let alone hearing about an admittedly beautiful, tall, blonde a capella cohort member. "I see that," she says tightly. They still haven't separated. Though now Beca has broken eye contact to look at the contents on the snack table. "What are they talking about?"

"I don't know," Aubrey replies honestly, and she doesn’t care to speculate. Though, she can’t find it in her to lie to her best friend. “You should talk to Beca.”

She tightens her grip on her glass, taking care not to shatter it completely. This reminds her of how out of her element she had felt when she had first seen photos of Beca with random artists on her label and the attractive, younger interns here and there. Granted, she had felt possession primarily, with the occasional spike of jealousy. However, the foreign feeling she feels here is a distinct territorialism, which is frustrating because she genuinely doesn’t recognize this woman at all. As well, she trusts Beca without a shadow of a doubt, and she knows Beca is committed to her.

And yet, Chloe has never felt more like a high schooler or doe-eyed freshman in college.

But this isn't then. Chloe is an adult. She has grown into her own self not once, but twice. This is now. Now, she is married to the love of her life with a precious baby on the way.

And yet, Beca is—

Chloe's insides boil with rage as the blonde's hand runs along Beca's forearm in a way that can only be described as “teasingly” or even “flirtatiously”.

Beca jerks back, to her credit. She doesn’t linger or falter.

From this distance, Chloe doesn't hear the exchange, but she doesn't miss the uncomfortable expression Beca adopts and her gesturing. Chloe flushes when the mystery blonde’s eyes swivel up, directly latching on to Chloe with both amusement and assessment in her eyes. Though, something softens in her then when her eyes meet Chloe’s and Chloe can’t help but shake off the feeling that she’s not part of some inside joke. Still, Beca maintains an air of professionalism that Chloe recognizes from having watched Beca network over the years and they part amicably.

Aubrey is too quiet through this whole exchange, and fidgets a little nervously, brushing against Chloe accidentally. Chloe jumps, having forgotten that Aubrey was there at all.

Chloe turns to face her. "What did I just see?”

"It's…complicated. Maybe."

“Is it?” Chloe challenges.

Aubrey merely raises an eyebrow in response and wisely takes a sip of her drink before responding. “It’s something to talk to Beca about, I guess.” She sighs. “Speaking of.”

"Hi baby," Beca’s voice sounds from behind her. Chloe turns to find Beca’s eyes trained intently on her, holding out Chloe’s requested plate of fruits. Chloe softens marginally because she loves how Beca’s cheeks are gently flushed from a mixture of light alcohol indulgence and mingling with a variety of people, young and old. It’s nice to see Beca relaxed and carefree, especially when her day job requires such high levels of attention and stress.

Beca frowns at Chloe’s silence, walking closer still. Chloe thinks how unfair it is that Beca looks so damn good in that dress, especially when Chloe had to take special care to pick out a dress that didn’t accentuate her newly acquired curves.

“What’s wrong, Chlo?” Beca asks, picking up instantly on the shift in Chloe’s mood.

“Nothing,” Chloe murmurs quickly. She pulls Beca towards her with a hand, offering a half-hearted smile.

"Beca, were you just talking to that DSM woman? What’s she doing here?" Aubrey asks, glancing carefully between Beca and Chloe.

Beca settles back against Chloe’s side, a hand finding its way around Chloe’s waist. "We were just catching up," she replies. “It’s been a while. I barely remembered her. I guess she’s here for the benefit?” Beca looks wholly unconcerned. “She’s still based in Europe, I think.”

Unexpectedly, all of that makes Chloe stiffen, mostly because she feels like she’s missing something important. "Looked like a fun conversation," she comments quietly, accepting the small plate of sliced fruits that Beca hands her.

It doesn’t quite register in Beca’s brain the exact tone Chloe uses, but she chalks it up to the one and a half glasses of champagne she’s had so far. It’s then that recognition flashes through her and she swallows, half nervously and half guiltily. “Oh,” Beca says quietly. “She was just this…captain of an a capella team we faced when we were back at Barden.

Instead of pushing it further, she kisses Chloe’s cheek gently. “I love you,” she murmurs against Chloe’s warm skin.

At this, Chloe’s lips twitch into a smile and she turns her head, leaning in to kiss Beca softly. “I love you, too,” she says against Beca’s mouth.

The rest of the evening goes off without a hitch, though it nags at the back of Chloe’s mind as she chats with a few people here and there – that beautiful, tall blonde and her easy familiarity with Beca as if they were friends.

And, more dangerously, as if they were more than friends.

Beca catches sight of Chloe a few paces down. She can’t resist the easy smile that graces her face upon seeing her, a wholly natural reaction, especially when Chloe looks exceptionally radiant tonight.

“Ready to go?” Beca asks, making her way back to her wife. She smiles at Aubrey who is shrugging on her own jacket. She holds a hand out for Chloe to pull her in for a quick kiss. She’s pleased to feel Chloe’s instant, comforting response, having been a little concerned about their earlier conversation.

“Yeah,” Chloe responds. She picks up her bag, lacing her fingers with Beca’s.

“Nice to see you again, Tiny Mouse,” comes from a faintly accented voice to Beca’s left. Chloe and Beca turn and Chloe startles upon seeing the same woman from earlier. Chloe hoists her bag strap further on her shoulder, taking in how much taller this woman appears in person and feeling vaguely inadequate, though she’s not sure what it is about this woman that irks her.

She’ll start with the nickname. “Tiny Mouse?” she mutters to Aubrey, who has joined her in watching Beca shake hands – very professionally and nothing more – with this woman.

Aubrey places a comforting hand on her shoulder, which does anything but comfort her.

Beca returns to her side, naturally curling a hand into the curve of Chloe’s elbow.

Chloe’s not jealous – not really. After all, she hardly knows this woman and Beca doesn’t seem to care either way.

And yet, Chloe cares. So much.

She just hates that she can’t place why.

“Let’s go home,” she murmurs in response to Beca’s questioning expression.

Chloe replays the entire interaction, embellishing here and there, she’s sure, but it can’t be helped. Not when the streak of possession runs white hot through her, setting her aflame.

It is simultaneously ridiculous and overwhelming because all it serves to remind her is that she has loved Beca in two seemingly separate lives and she’s still learning how to reconcile the two, even though they’re married and well –

Her mind spins with a million thoughts, even as Beca’s hand slides over her thigh in the car, a seemingly comforting gesture, though the way Beca leaves two lingering kisses, soft and slow, against her neck and then her cheek – it seems to indicate she’s gunning for something more when they get home.

Chloe shifts at the thought, trying to let it take over, but all she can see is Beca’s limp handhold in that woman’s hand – the way Beca’s eyes had flashed with something a bit more than professional recognition, visible even from Chloe’s vantage point.

The amusement in her eyes when she had seen Chloe, who was sure her own eyes were reflecting only confusion and lack of recognition at all.

“Who was she?” Chloe asks, unable to help it any longer. She lasted about twenty minutes.

Beca hums, putting her phone down and angling her body towards her. “Who?” she repeats, questioningly.

“The – that woman who came up to us when we were leaving. You were talking to her earlier in the evening, too.”

Beca frowns, seemingly sifting through her memories of the night. It clearly hasn’t weighed as heavily on her mind as it did for Chloe, which is to be expected, she supposes. Beca must meet a hundred different people from all these events.

“The tall, imposing blonde,” Chloe says, a little irritably, though she’s not sure if she can place why she feels this way. Only that she feels justified in being jealous. The cycle of frustration continues to run through her – the reminder that she still has so much to learn about Beca’s life – though this feels like it runs like a deeper thread.

Still, she’s not sure how she wants Beca to respond exactly. Enough to placate her for the time-being, though she’s not sure what she wants Beca to say or do.

Instead, Beca says, very softly, “Oh, her.”

For some reason, the two syllables strike a chord in Chloe and, while it’s not quite the memory that floats to the forefront of her mind, a million and one hypotheticals flicker through her mind’s eye and all she feels a white-hot jealousy.

She can see, somehow, in vivid clarity, an image of Beca laughing with this woman, holding her hand, and just being with her.

While those actions in themselves are not particularly striking, it’s the happiness she sees in Beca’s eyes – the ones conjured up by her imagination; that happiness is palpable, even from the distance Chloe is afforded.

What if there were curious glances?

Subtle touches?

Cuddling during a movie night?

Stifled laughter at something embarrassing like the brush of their hands?

Vividly, with each hypothetical, she can see it in her mind. They are invasive by nature, but mostly because she feels compelled to claim those memories for herself. She feels simultaneously well-acquainted with this woman and yet, like they are complete strangers.

She wrenches her eyes shut and does her best to will away the jealous what-ifs.

That's all they are: jealous what ifs. Jealous what-ifs, conjured by her partitioned memory – the two halves representing the memory she has of Beca now and the memory she has of Beca then.

Get it together, Chloe.

But, still-

“Did you date her?” she blurts, not wanting to face Beca because she’s mortified at her own mouth.

“Oh God,” Beca says, jolting in her seat as if the question is so jarring and unexpected. It makes Chloe’s mouth twist into a half-grimace, half-smile. “No, definitely not.”

Still, Chloe can’t find it in her to smile, not when she feels remnants of emotions that she’s not even sure she’s allowed to have because it’s just another memory that she’ll never have. And yet…

“I mean, okay,” Beca says, breathing out noisily when she takes in Chloe’s neutral expression. “You’ve met her before, alright? Just. When we were at Barden. She was on a competing team.”

“I know,” Chloe mutters. “You mentioned that.” She doesn’t want to know the answer to this, but, “were you attracted to her?” she asks slowly, unsure as to why it makes her heart pound excessively.

“I was confused,” Beca admits after a long pause. She looks visibly uncomfortable and upset. “Chlo, I promise that it didn’t mean anything. I was overwhelmed by a lot of things, especially the fact that I was realizing – very slowly – that I was falling in love with you. Or that I already was in love with you.”

Chloe swallows. “Beca,” she says softly.

“But, clearly you won,” Beca points out unnecessarily. “I married you.” She winces. “That’s not what I meant,” she says softly. “I just…nothing ever happened, okay? Nothing would ever have happened because I never wanted anything from her. I have only been in love with you.”

Chloe is silent for a moment before she heaves a long sigh. She reaches out to touch Beca’s hand gently, tracing the cool metal band adorning Beca’s finger. “Why wouldn’t you tell me about her? You’ve had almost three years.”

“Chlo, there were way more important things than reminding you of some member of a German a capella team.” Beca bites her lip before tentatively reaching a hand out, this time to rest gently on Chloe’s stomach, palming the very slight bump that has begun to show – though it’s only really visible to people who would care enough to look closely. “Like this,” Beca says, with reverence in her tone – reverence that is reserved for Chloe Beale-Mitchell and now, their baby.

Chloe bristles, but the effect is lessened because Beca’s care and attention only makes her love Beca more. “Why wouldn’t you tell me about her? You’ve told me countless stories about Barden,” she says softly, hating how insecure she sounds. “If she was so important,” she mutters.

Beca sighs, taking her hand off Chloe’s body and resting it primly on her lap. “Chloe,” she says gently. “I just told you why.”

“I’m sorry,” Chloe apologizes, hating how out of her element she feels. She had come to terms with what she could and could not remember a long time ago, but these flare-ups and blips are still as jarring as ever, especially one as striking as somebody who invokes such an unexpected bout of jealousy from within her.

“No, don’t apologize,” Beca says immediately and sincerely. “I’m sorry too. I can’t really make excuses. I just…lose track, sometimes,” she admits, and it’s tinged with guilt and embarrassment. The pain leftover from the accident, even though it is years behind them, still lingers heavily over them. It had been there when they had gotten married. It had been there when they had been contemplating having children and what exactly would be within the limits of what Chloe could and couldn’t do.

It lingers over them now, even when everything has seemingly fallen into place. Just because Chloe’s life feels in place doesn’t necessarily mean that things fell into place neatly. She’s still coming to terms with the mess of things and how to live with that – though she suspects she’s going to be living with that for the rest of her life.

The tight feeling in their chests lessen considerably and Chloe tilts further into Beca’s body and fixates on the buildings they’re speeding past. She likes the comfort she gets from how nice Beca’s perfume smells – pear and freesia – as well as the gentle tickle of Beca’s hair against her shoulder.

And Beca, well, she’ll blame the mildly intoxicated state, but her reaction is sudden and visceral. She all but swoons – a little belatedly – at the sight of Chloe’s mildly angry state.

"You're so hot when you're jealous, Chlo,” Beca murmurs, shifting herself closer to her wife, secretly delighted.

"I'm not jealous of her," Chloe says, punctuating it with an exaggerated scoff. Beca can see her pout, even in the dim lighting of their car.

Beca shifts closer to Chloe, taking in the determinedly focused expression of her driver before gently kissing at Chloe’s ear. Leaning back, pleased, she notes that Chloe’s cheeks are flushed so obviously that they’re visible even to Beca’s eyes. “You’re so cute,” Beca whispers, honestly and maybe a little teasingly.

“Shut up,” Chloe mutters, though it lacks bite and anger. She smiles.

"Babe," Beca says, more seriously to direct Chloe’s attention to her. Once her favourite eyes latch onto her face, she smiles as lovingly and gently as she can, bringing a hand to Chloe’s thigh while the other dips just behind Chloe’s neck to pull her in for a gentle, albeit passionate kiss. She moans softly when Chloe responds immediately, her tongue swiping out stroke at Beca’s lower lip with expertise and sureness that never fails to make Beca tremble in anticipation. Still, Beca’s on a mission and she sighs quietly when she pulls back, resisting a smile when Chloe chases her, trying to steal another kiss.

“Bec,” she says softly – so softly that it almost sticks in her throat. Chloe feels a flush – separate from being overwhelmed by the night’s events – ripple up her body.

“You know I’m yours,” Beca says and that alone is enough to send heat right between Chloe’s legs. Just when she thinks she can hold off just a little longer – at least until the next stoplight, Beca’s eyes seem to darken.

“You’re mine,” Chloe repeats, hypnotized by the intensity in Beca’s eyes. She leans in, pulling Beca in for a crushing kiss, trying to pull at her as best as she can. Beca’s lips are pliant and willing, sensual in how tenderly they move against Chloe’s. When Chloe pulls back, she gently brushes her fingers across Beca’s cheek before thumbing Beca’s lower lip, smiling at the slightly askew lipstick. “Mine,” she murmurs, gently wiping the smudge away.

Beca is breathing a little heavier, and contemplates what to say. “Just as much as you’re mine, for the rest of our lives,” she says, so breathlessly that it makes Chloe’s own chest ache. The possession in Beca’s tone is blatant and it makes Chloe blush at how primal it sounds, but the way Beca says it makes it still, amidst everything, completely enshrined in how in love with her she is.

Chloe dozes off the rest of the ride back to their home. Beca sobers up, growing tired, but only marginally.

Beca is content to tilt her head against Chloe’s, mind still buzzing with the night’s events. Sometimes she honestly forgets that there’s a part of their life together that is a blank void for Chloe. She has simply grown so accustomed to happily being in love with Chloe that she lets it slip her mind, if only for a moment.

But in reality, Beca has nightmares about it sometimes – about whatever image of twisted metal melding with Chloe’s injured body – and it leaves her shaking and breathless because she had thought about what it might have been like to truly lose Chloe; about what it would have been like if fate had been more cruel to them both.

She thanks her driver, offering a small smile, before coaxing Chloe out of the car. Her previous simmering arousal has died down significantly and she gently helps Chloe out of her shoes before doing the same for herself.

“Bed?” she suggests, as they make their way into the master bathroom.

Chloe nods, making quick work of washing her face and putting on an oversized t-shirt. Donning similar attire, Beca tries not to stare at the expanse of Chloe’s legs poking out from beneath the shirt, but she can’t help herself an obligatory once-over, especially when Chloe smiles at her knowingly.

“We can talk tomorrow,” Chloe suggests, her voice slow and lined with sleep and something more.

“Okay,” Beca agrees. “Hold me?”

Chloe complies eagerly, unsure if she’ll be able to do so comfortably in the near future. She tucks herself behind Beca, holding her close. Beca tries not to think about how wonderful Chloe feels against her. Holding Chloe’s forearm against her, Beca resigns herself to dozing off when she feels soft lips press against her neck, then again to her ear. The kisses are too purposeful to be goodnight kisses. Beca feels more alert and she briefly wonders if this is a trap.

"Chloe."

"Beca.”

“I thought you were tired,” she says slowly, letting her body naturally wake back up so it can respond accordingly to Chloe’s advances. She whimpers as a slick tongue darts out to bathe her flesh. "Maybe I'm trying to sleep."

"Why would you try to sleep now?” Chloe asks, slipping a hand up Beca’s shirt to cup her hip.

"Maybe I'm tired," Beca says cautiously. “Going to benefits are a lot of work.”

"It must be hard,” Chloe agrees, hooking her chin over Beca’s shoulder. Her finger tips dip just barely beneath the waistband of Beca’s underwear, causing both their hips to shift restlessly.

“Hello,” Beca greets, tilting her head back to meet Chloe’s lips in a mildly uncomfortable kiss. She twists a bit more so she’s lying on her back, but still nestled in Chloe’s arms. Chloe uses her ankle to tug Beca’s legs open a bit further.

They kiss languidly and slowly for a moment, just taking in the intimacy of it all.

Her lips return to Beca's neck, licking, sucking, biting, though always gently and tenderly. Apparently, people in the music industry take notice of things such as hickies, so Chloe takes care not to mark Beca’s neck too much. While kissing Beca’s neck slowly, Chloe’s fingers crawl over her wife’s abdomen to trace the soft contours she finds there. She hisses out a pleasurable breath when Beca’s hand dips under body to curve around her waist and grip her ass firmly.

Beca shivers and swallows thickly when Chloe pushes up her shirt even more, exposing her skin to the cool air. The air does nothing to her heated skin overall, because Chloe has somehow managed to get her aroused and heated in the blink of an eye. She recalls vividly how she had imagined what it would be like to pull Chloe into her body and fuck her, either at the benefit itself or in the car – Beca hadn’t been picky, but there had been more pressing matters to attend to. While the cloud still lingers at the back of Beca’s mind, Chloe’s advances are very much welcome at the moment.

Chloe whimpers into her ear, nearly rubbing herself right on Beca’s hip and thigh. “This is okay, right?” she asks, breathlessly.

Beca swallows and nods. “What do you want?” she asks softly, pulling Chloe’s body closer. She twists, so her lips meet Chloe’s again. She raises her other hand to rake through Chloe’s hair, running her fingers through the gentle knots she finds. “Tell me,” she murmurs.

Chloe’s body is thrumming, running high on hormones and emotions. She can feel how sensitive everything is, like every inch of her skin is only just adjusting. Chloe feels like she will never be able to hide how attracted she is to Beca, especially not when her body is moving of its own accord. The fabric of her shirt rubs against her already sensitive nipples and she sighs, curling a hand into the fabric of Beca’s shirt. “Off,” she murmurs. She tugs off her own shirt while Beca complies and does the same with her own. Chloe pulls Beca back into her orbit, eyes falling shut at the sensation of skin against skin, her hips rocking back into Beca’s body.

“What do you want?” Beca repeats, adopting a tone she reserves only for Chloe and only for the confines in her bedroom. It makes Chloe’s eyes flutter shut and she pushes her nose into Beca’s neck, allowing Beca to twist and face her fully.

"You know what I want, Bec,” Chloe whispers, dropping the second syllable of Beca’s name. “Please don't make me beg." She feels out of her mind; out of her body. Chloe is sure she has more self-control than this. Just an hour ago, maybe more, she had been out of her mind with jealousy, and yet, Beca’s assurance and resilience still shines through in every situation, only making her fall for her harder every day.

Holding Chloe’s hips, she forces them to roll so that Chloe is sitting astride her thighs. Biting her lip, she can see how aroused Chloe is, mostly by the way her body is flushed and on the verge of trembling. She helps guide Chloe into a gentle rocking motion. The feeling of Chloe’s soaked underwear against her skin triggers an answering moan to leave her lips as she takes in Chloe’s expression. A soft grunt leaves Chloe’s lips and her hands immediately slide up to cup Beca’s breasts a little roughly.

"What if I like that?” she questions, returning to her previous line of thought. She smooths a hand up Chloe’s stomach and opts to rest it teasingly between her breasts. Chloe exhales noisily at the action. Beca feels her own breathing halt momentarily because Chloe’s eyes are glimmering. “What if I like it when you beg, just a little bit?" she pants out. In response, Chloe’s fingers come together to pinch her stiff nipple. Gentle at first, then a bit harder, eliciting a strangled whine.

Never one to back down – for which Beca is grateful – Chloe rocks her hips once more. "Fuck me," she groans, pitching forward so that she’s hovering right above Beca’s face. "Beca. Please, baby."

Beca's thighs clench together as the nickname is breathed right against her already-sensitive ear. Her right hand blindly reaches up to tangle into Chloe's hair. "Tell me,” she states, drawing out it. She moves her left hand to cup Chloe’s ass, aiding her movements.

Chloe moans at the sensation of Beca’s fingers pulling at her hair. “I need you."

Beca groans at the desperation in her wife's voice. Mind made up, rocks up and twists. She turns over again, feeling her core strain with the force she needs to exert. She pins Chloe into the bed and kisses her thoroughly, taking care to not completely crush Chloe’s body with her own.

She loses all playfulness then, only wanting to make love to her wife – something she has wanted to do all night since she saw Chloe in her dress. Tugging briefly at Chloe’s lower lip, she lets her teeth scrape at the soft flesh before she smiles comfortingly at Chloe and sits up.

Beca marvels briefly, as she drags Chloe’s underwear down her legs, at how Chloe’s body has changed. It still makes her heart skip whenever she thinks about how blessed she is to be able to call Chloe hers – her wife, her partner in crime, the mother of her child. Just past the thirteen week mark and Beca has never been more attracted to Chloe and her body.

Unconsciously, her eyes drift to Chloe’s midsection. The same familiar happiness washes over her at the thought what it had been like to hear their baby’s heartbeat for the first time, let alone what it had been like to see it.

“I love you,” Beca whispers with sudden emotion. Her fingers trail up Chloe’s side, lingering for a millisecond on faded scars. “I love you so much.”

Chloe’s chest heaves with the same emotion and she nods, almost desperately. “I love you, too. Now get up here,” she says, hand curling into Beca’s hair and tugging. She spreads her legs further to accommodate Beca’s body between her legs. She frowns when she realizes Beca has yet to take off her own underwear. “Off,” she pleads. “I need to feel you.”

Beca kisses her once to placate her and hastily shoves her underwear down her legs. She eagerly presses her body into Chloe’s once more and they both moan quietly at the sensation. Well aware that her wife’s body is sensitive and more aroused than usual, Beca takes care in trailing her fingers up and down Chloe’s sides, applying just the right amount of pressure to her favourite spots.

Chloe’s body responds to Beca’s without fail. Every single curve of Beca's body molds so perfectly into her own. She arches in a desperate, lust-driven attempt to get closer.

"I think you’re the most beautiful woman I’ve ever met," Beca whispers, lips moving languidly down Chloe’s neck. She heaves a sigh, hips moving slowly against Chloe’s lower body, working her up further.

“I-I am?” Chloe asks, trying to keep her eyes open. She digs her fingertips into Beca’s back, gasping out when Beca’s fingers work their way between her legs, searching; exploring. “Oh my God,” she whimpers. Beca’s index and middle finger expertly glide across her clit repeatedly – rhythmically maybe – very nearly causing her eyes to cross. She swallows, reaching for Beca’s thigh as best she can to both hold her closer and help enable the gentle rocking of Beca’s hips. She can feel how wet and warm and swollen Beca feels against her thigh, which is one of the most intoxicating feelings she can recall.

She never put much stock into the notion that pregnancy would send her hormones on overdrive, or the idea that her libido would kick in often, but she thinks that this is very much something they could both get used to.

Her thoughts stop abruptly then because without further preamble (read: teasing), Beca’s pointer and middle finger are gently easing their way inside her in what Chloe can only describe as a completely leisurely fashion.

"You are," Beca says, with an achingly quiet tone. “Gorgeous. Inside and out. I’m so lucky that you’re mine.” Her breath grows heavy, fingers curling. “I’m so lucky that you’re carrying our baby.”

And as suddenly as Beca’s fingers are expertly stroking at her inner walls, they disappear and Chloe all but cries out in frustration.

She maneuvers her leg over Chloe's thigh, slotting her other leg as firmly as possible against the wet flesh between tan thighs. A strangled moan falls from Chloe's lips as her hips pump leisurely against the firm limb pressed against her. She feels like she’s collapsing further into her pillow as her head tilts backwards. Beca takes the opportunity to lift up, resting heavily on her arm. Chloe can feel warm puffs of Beca’s breath against her cheek before she rises further.

The way Beca’s eyes track down her body as best as she can only stokes the fire. She bites her lip at the sight of Chloe's flushed skin and undulating hips. Her gaze rakes across her torso, the heat of which makes Chloe’s desire spike even further.

Chloe's entire body quakes as she thrusts steadily against the thigh firmly between her legs, sliding her aching clit against the strong, unyielding, and impossibly smooth skin of Beca’s leg.

Her hands instantly tangle in long brown curls, fisting as many strands as she can because she needs an anchor of some kind.

Anything, really, at this point.

Beca dips her head back down to kiss her firmly, lips slotting perfectly against Chloe’s. It’s a wet kiss, just the barest hints of tongue, and yet imbued with so much passion that it makes Chloe want to cry.

"Bec," she whines out breathlessly, when Beca draws back, only to press her lips against Chloe’s neck, just beneath her jaw. Beca moans wantonly against her heated flesh at the nickname, before tilting her head further down to encase Chloe’s nipple. She flicks her tongue determinedly against straining flesh before pulling away with a harsh exhale.

The desire Beca has for her, no matter how many times they've done this now, is still enough to stoke the flame that erupts somewhere in Chloe's chest.

Chloe thinks, briefly, about how unfair it is that Beca somehow manages to look so attractive even while slightly flushed and sweaty. She’s so ridiculously in love with this woman; sometimes the thought makes her want to cry, other times it makes her want to combust on the spot. It’s verging towards the latter, she thinks. The way she flips her hair over her shoulder as she curves up above Chloe’s face is absolutely maddening.

Beca doesn't seem to have the same qualms, adopting a confidence that Chloe feels was stolen straight from her because all she can do is struggle to breathe while Beca works her over expertly. She smiles down at Chloe, her hand slipping between her legs again.

“Wifey,” she all but purrs, letting her hand wander freely.

Chloe moans, partly in agony, as the action causes Beca's thigh to fall away from between her legs. She feels empty, suddenly and all but squirms to tug Beca's body closer to hers.

She’s so fucking close.

She had been close.

Now she just feels swollen, and almost uncomfortably wet. Not to mention she feels hot all over, a reminder that her body seems to be running a degree or two warmer than usual. Beca only adds to that reminder when she gently runs her fingertips over the skin on her stomach, a now-frequent habit of hers since Chloe first started showing nearly two weeks ago. "Please," she whimpers thickly, unable to find it in herself to feel self-conscious about begging. “Beca,” she whispers, somehow managing both syllables of Beca’s name.

Beca’s eyes soften and darken; her eyes become less filled with amusement and more with love – so filled to the brim with love that Chloe’s throat tightens with emotion. A softer whimper escapes her. She curls a hand around Beca’s neck to pull her down for a searing kiss.

Beca's tongue instantly slips inside her mouth to stroke against hers causing Chloe’s hands to fist into Beca’s hair. She arches into the body above her, trembling with sheer desire when her nipples meet Beca's. Her hand glides down Beca's torso to rest between her legs with ease, groaning at the abundance of wetness that greets her. Beca thrusts quickly against the hand between her legs, parting from Chloe’s mouth to pant heatedly against her neck.

"Together,” Beca says in a shaky tone. “I want to come with you, baby.”

Chloe can agree to that.

She hisses when Beca thrusts a little a harder, her hand working overtime between Chloe’s legs. Vaguely, Chloe thinks she blacks out and only just remembers to curl her fingers, eliciting a throaty moan from Beca.

Chloe thinks that this will never get old. Not just sex, because she’s sure she will always enjoy that with Beca, but just the feeling of feeling so close to the one person she trusts more than anybody. She curls an arm around Beca’s back, holding her as best as she can because the urge to protect Beca rises up as suddenly as the white-hot spike of pleasure when Beca adds another finger to the mix.

It definitely makes her eyes cross this time, and Chloe gasps out a breath, vaguely wondering why she ever cared about another woman in Beca’s life. Not when Beca Mitchell makes her body absolutely sing like this.

But, Chloe’s not going down without a fight – not before she makes Beca see fucking stars. She presses her thumb as best as she can against Beca’s clit and uses her free hand to grasp blindly at Beca’s ass, digging her fingers into the pliant flesh. God, she loves Beca’s body.

Beca’s rhythmic rocking stumbles and the sound that escapes her is absolutely sinful. It’s a half-grunt, half-whine that, when paired with the other noises echoing around their bedroom, almost makes Chloe blush.

Almost.

She’s so close that she doesn’t even care anymore. The only phrases she really knows how to say are Beca’s name and variations of “I love you” which she intersperses.

Beca’s vocabulary doesn’t seem to be faring much better, for all the bravado and confidence she had earlier. “Fuck,” Beca curses quietly against Chloe’s neck. It sounds strained, even muffled against her heated skin. Her teeth scrape against Chloe’s collarbone, not really biting, but rather lingering in a tantalizing fashion.

The sound of small whines and whimpers trapped in the back of Chloe's throat alerts Beca to the fact that she's close.

"Shit," she cries out, upping the pace of her own fingers. She loves how Beca feels around her, a sensation that she’ll never tire of. With Beca's inner muscles squeezing the way they are it's making it harder.

"You're beautiful, baby," Beca groans, a little out of left field.

Chloe opens her mouth to say something – thank Beca maybe? Tell her that she’s the beautiful person. Instead, when Beca’s fingers curl in her, against her, all Chloe manages is a strangled grunt that tapers off into a whine.

"Yeah," Beca asserts, taking Chloe’s non-response as a good sign. “You’re the most beautiful p-person I’ve ever met. Ins-inside and out – oh-oh God. I only want you.”

Her arm wraps around Beca as familiar warmth envelops her body. "Come, Bec," she moans. "With me.” She can’t manage full sentences, not when her brain feels like it’s shutting down, one area at a time.

"I'm trying,” Beca grunts out, body nearly crying out from the exertion and stimulation. A ripple of pleasure spikes up her spine unexpectedly and she all but curves into Chloe’s body, whimpering.

Chloe pulls her down with the arm wrapped around her, thrusting harder and faster. She stills her hand, letting Beca just feel the presence of her hand, her fingers, and God, the way Beca absolutely clenches around her. "Oh, fuck," Beca whimpers. "I'm coming, Chlo.” Chloe’s breath stutters in response. “I'm coming,” she repeats, her voice cracking on the last syllable.

Chloe buries her face into her favourite neck, muffling her cry as heat spreads through her from head to toe. She trembles, her body arching into Beca’s even more than she thought possible, and she feels another whine bubble from her throat, though it verges more towards a sob. Beca seems to stiffen at the sound, her back tensing under Chloe’s hands.

When they both finally calm down and Chloe thinks that the pleasure spikes have become manageable, Beca kind of slides off her body and to the side, prompting Chloe to curl right into her instinctively.

Equally instinctive, Beca’s arm curls around her and tugs her close, both of them stiffening as the sensation of their bodies sliding against each other makes for another spike of pleasure. Still, Beca’s hold is protective above all and it calms them both enough for their breathing to even out.

Chloe sighs quietly, burying her face in Beca's neck – one of her favourite places to hide away from the world. Even as she presses against Beca’s body, she can feel the changes in her own body – how it’s not the same familiar fit. It only reminds her of how much they have to look forward to.

Chloe kisses the slightly damp skin of Beca’s neck before kissing the underside of her jaw tenderly. "Thank you, baby," she whispers.

Beca seems to find amusement in that. She tilts Chloe’s head up to meet her eyes. "For the sex?" She asks, only grimacing when Chloe’s fingers pinch at her stomach quickly.

“No,” Chloe murmurs, unable to resist a smile against Beca’s neck. “Just. For everything. From the beginning to end.”

Beca swallows at that, knowing that Chloe means everything – from the beginning of their story to whatever end they’ve signed up for. She knows not to expect an end anytime soon, just that they’re in this together.

Forever, if Beca has anything to say about it.

"I'm so glad you chose me," Chloe whispers, stroking the skin above Beca’s eyebrow. Beca blinks sleepily up at her, on the verge of falling asleep, but still desperately holding on to every word Chloe says. Chloe doesn’t know how it’s possible to continuously overfill her brim with love. “Because I’m so happy that I get to love you every day. I know I was crazy. A little bit,” she murmurs slightly stiltedly. “Tonight–“

“–You weren’t,” Beca promises through a yawn. She sighs, cuddling into Chloe’s side, relishing the feeling of soft skin tightly pressed against her own body.

Chloe heaves a short laugh against her, pressing her lips as best as she can to what she assumes to be Beca’s forehead, but the mess of hair gets in the way. “I was a little jealous,” she concedes.

“Which is normal, considering everything,” Beca points out.

“Which is normal, considering everything,” Chloe allows, eyes softening even further. “But still, considering everything, you still chose me.”

“Choose. I still choose you. No matter what,” Beca murmurs, tilting her head to press a kiss against Chloe’s throat.

“And I’m so grateful every day,” Chloe whispers, feeling her own eyelids grow heavy. Beca tucks herself even closer, weaving her leg between Chloe’s so they’re pressed intimately together once again. “I love you, Bec. I love you so much.”

“I love you, too,” Beca replies after a moment, soft and quiet in the increasingly heavy air.

And as Chloe’s brain finally gives her the go-ahead to fall asleep, she hears Beca’s last murmured assurance against her skin, as quiet as a breath.

“There was never a choice, I promise. You’re it for me.”

Chloe falls asleep with the promise of an entire lifetime ahead of her, knowing that she’ll remember everything about this in the morning.

3:15- Prologue

Chapter 1

Peter Parker had to convince MJ Jones to agree to go on a date with him, back in sophomore year of high school at Midtown High. But the years of happiness that followed made MJ glad she said yes.

She and Peter were each other’s first everything, and in all honesty, they thought they’d be each other’s last’s. But sometimes, life has different paths for people, and when it came time to choose colleges, this became evident for the young couple.

They never thought distance would mean the end for them, so when Michelle kissed her boyfriend for the last time before leaving, it was a “see you later,” and not a “goodbye.”

And that had been true, that time, it was a see you later. But, as time had progressed, and they saw each other less and less, the “see you later” kisses turned into “I don’t know when I’m going to see you next” kisses and then finally, the “I sense the end” kiss, but there was never a goodbye kiss. They never had closure.

And now it’s their junior year of college, two years since they’d broken up over a lengthy phone call and a year since they’d seen each other at a graduation ceremony, and the feelings remained, but both were on too distant of terms to ask the other if they felt the same.

So they continued life, separately.

Michelle focused on her writing, since she wanted to work in journalism, and Peter focused on balancing equations for the many science classes he took for his chem major.

It wasn’t until a certain song came on shuffle on Peter’s phone that he realized he forgot how alive the girl who’s in East Lansing made him feel, and how dead he felt next to the girl—his girlfriend—in his bed in Los Angeles.

—————

Hiiiii!! First chaptered fic I’ve ever written and been confident enough in to share! I’m so excited about this ahhhhh!!

kino: shinwon hyung gifts me clothes from time to time... hyung bought it but... clothes that suit me better than hyung or... or... that kind of clothes... or clothes that i would like, he really gives me a lot of those. other than this, he also gave me another expensive shirt with printing... i think i used to wear a lot of hyung's clothes last time. like jacket... he also gave me pants. it was gray pants... but anyway...

kino read a comment "i love you." yes, me too... i haven't said, "i love you" in a long time. i'm always loving universe.

kino: to me... last time, when i'm asked what's my number 1 treasure, i would be like, "ah! they're all precious to me." but ever since i started composing, i think my recording equipment have become [my] number 1 treasure. together with my hard disk. for a few years, really... even though i did dance and singing for a few years, my body's an instrument. but these... i can live if all these disappear. i don't know what i'm saying but anyway... yes, so this is my work studio which has become my number 1 treasure.

kino: being a singer that's good at performing is actually my dream. it's still a dream for me. and so, now, i/we worry/think a lot about our performances. what would make [the audience] want to come back the next round? even though i don't have much experience, but in the 2 years that i've performed in front of everyone, the things that i've felt, as well as the times when universe reacted well [to something]... we can feel it with our bodies. we remember those times and for the next cue sheet that we'll work on we'll think about it a little more. but then, for this round's cue sheet... i don't think we've worried too much about it. [because] before that, obviously, if we focused more on the quality of the performances, then the performances this round would, of course, different/unique performances, really... for those who have come the last round, [for them to think], "oh? i came the last round but it's so different this round. it was so fun" or... the next... no, even for the people who are seeing our performances for the first time, "wow, pentagon's performances are really interesting", in order to make fun performances so that it would be interesting enough for people to share it with their friends, not just this round's but also for future performances... we have been paying much attention to these areas. they are really important things but i've been missing this out. so when we were reviewing the cue sheet again, we... the choreography, things that we need to prepare, and the things that we have to prepare again for the future, and the new things that we need to make... and, for example, either a remix or there's also areas where we rearranged the song... yes.

kino: kino shared how he ended up eating alone. hui said he's already eaten. kino also called jinho but jinho said he ate a late lunch after waking up late. wooseok ate with shinwon. after making rounds of calls, he thought that he should just eat alone so he ordered curry.

kino said he's been listening to a variety of songs recently. he said even though he isn't sure and isn't able to objectively judge how much his songs are able to connect with people, while working on good music, he still wants to let people hear lots (a variety) from him. he said although he may not be able to pull off that many music [styles] at this moment, if he does [music] consistently, someday he thinks he would be able to let us hear variety of music. so he's been thinking about such stuff lately... just the day before yesterday, #kino thought to himself... next time, when he gets a chance to perform, he wishes to do a big scale one - in a concert format that's never been done before. the title of it is, "sense of reality." kino said he likes to [imagine] about these things; for example, he wants to bring ideas onto the set, like from a fairytale chapter and with music of that vibe... and to also share stories about reality vs. ideal. and the chapter after... about the future, and the last performance, he would like to do something related to art.

kino: i've listened to r&b for almost my whole life. hip-hop and r&b are [genres] that cannot be separated. i think i've listened to hip-hop and r&b for all my life. and recently... since about 2 years ago i liked jazz. jazz... i listen a lot to jazz. recently... recently, about 6 or 8 months? around the time when 'aquatic talks' was out, i thought a lot about reggae. i'm also listening to a lot to rock. there are many genres to rock as well.so, i listen to rock too. i also listen to bossa. hmmm. i also listen to disney music. edm... honestly... i think it's still not very close to me. but someday... even though there are many good edm music, it's still a little difficult for me to [embrace] it.

kino said he used to play starcraft a lot with his dad. kino and hui were both saying that their fathers were really good at the game. kino said he really liked starcraft when he was in elementary school.

kino: to be honest, other than the ones that i find myself or receive recommendations from people around me, fans do recommend a lot in reality. [fans] recommend a lot of books, and if they [share about] what movie they've watched and what was interesting, i capture everything and later on when i have to select a movie, book or song... i have a folder that consolidates everything that our fans recommend. i go through it like this and would be like, "oh! i should read this book today.", "oh! i should watch this movie today.", "i should listen to this music today." i receive lots of recommendations [from fans], thankfully, so i think my range's expanded and i think it's fun and nice to share [such stuff].

[NEWS] 170825 Billboard: “How EXO's 'The War' Came Together: A Song-By-Song Breakdown With the Band, Its Producers & More”

A behind-the-scenes look at what went into making summer's hottest K-pop album.

From the frenetic synths of “Going Crazy” to the dreamlike melodies of “Walk on Memories,” EXO's latest album, The War, held nothing back from fans. Pulling inspiration from funk, reggae, EDM, trap and more, then weaving it all together through top-notch production, it proved a logical progression in their sonic journey and a summer-friendly successor to the group's darker previous album, Ex'Act.

With The War, EXO topped Billboard's World Albums chart for two consecutive weeks and went on to sell over 1 million copies globally, proving that the EXO-L fandom is sticking around for the boy band's evolution.

Learn what went into the hottest K-pop album of the summer from the members themselves and some of the producers behind its hottest tracks.

“The Eve”

Mike Woods: I was one of the producers on “The Eve” which was originally titled “Black Dress.” I wrote it alongside Kevin White, Andrew Bazzi and Henry Lau. Originally the song was for Henry Lau's project, but we all felt that it going to EXO would be best for everyone as it was a perfect record for them. The sound came about from us wanting something sexy and melodic, but also performance driven. We wanted to paint a dark and mysterious vibe, hence the title “Black Dress.” We wrote the song during a writing camp for SM [Entertainment] -- we basically write one to two songs a day for about 10 days and see what we come up with. “The Eve” came about on the fourth day of the camp and only took us one day to complete, from conception of music and lyrics to the final composition. We recorded the demo for the song the same day of conception.

“Ko Ko Bop”

Styalz Fuego: I went out to Seoul early November last year. It was maybe 10 of us ... and basically we were all put in the the SM studios for a couple of weeks. It was my first time out there. [You're] basically hearing a quick [overview] of the whole scene and everything that's going on in K-pop and then you're put in the rooms every day to just write songs. “Ko Ko Bop” was maybe the fourth of fifth day in. The first couple of days I was trying to get a hang of [it.] I listened to a lot of K-pop, but still, it's a different scene to write a song [for] because it's so much more complex. [K-pop songs] have so many more moving components to them, than say, if you're out in L.A. writing, trying to make things very simple and trying to get to the core of the lyric and have the beat as simple as possible.

I kinda knew as soon as we'd done the song and we played it back for everyone, just from the response we got to the song it was gonna be something, but I had no idea it'd be [EXO's]. Going into writing that song, it was basically to do something with the reggae feel, that was the main thing we were aiming for. It took a whole different direction with the crazy drop section after the chorus. We went into this doing a reggae-pop song and it transformed into what it is.

I don't think it was ever for EXO -- I think it was more for a female group. Shaylen [Carroll, co-producer] did the demo. When they did the playback for everyone at SM, [we thought] they would essentially understand this is for one of the girl groups. A girl is singing it and it's in the range of what the girls can sing. The song was actually in a higher key -- I think three semitones higher -- so it was more fitted for a female [group] originally.

But I guess it worked out well because we had a few of our voices in the song spread out, so I guess when they started picking where the song could go, it made sense for EXO because there are so many different sections vocally.

Shaylen Carroll: I wrote the lyrics and melodies with Tay Jasper, then I sang the demo. It's a “feel good” type of track, so the melodies came easily. Styalz's stuff is easy to write to. When I was recording some melody ideas I kept on singing nonsense phrases and one was “Shimmy shimmy Ko Ko Bop,” which we all thought was super quirky and catchy. So we built off that and turned it into something real. The song is about not worrying about things... Sometimes you just gotta go with the flow! Don't worry about the haters.

Jared Cotter, Shaylen's manager: [SM Entertainment] let us know it was being considered for a girl group.

Carroll: [I] definitely never thought it would get flipped to EXO, but obviously we are thrilled it did. We [knew] it was special when we finished it. I am really glad it found the home that it did.

Chen: [The members and I] wrote the lyrics separately and worked on putting the lyrics together for the song afterwards. We worked on the song using a special method, where we gathered all three of our lyrics for the song and selected which lyrics would suit the song the best. I don't think I have any regrets or wish that it could have better since it's the best result produced through all the effort that our members and other various writers have put into the process. Through the lyrics, I wanted “Ko Ko Bop” to have people shake off all their stress and enjoy themselves just as who they are.

Baekhyun: I felt that a lot of our fans were unable to fully enjoy our concerts or performances because they're conscious of what others would think. Since “Ko Ko Bop” is a reggae and EDM genre and it's easy to groove to, I wanted my lyrics to have people to become more carefree, release their stress and dance away with the music.

“What U Do?”

Ronny Svendsen: The song was written in Seoul last December. We went over to Korea to do a camp for SM with our, at the time, new publishing company called Ekko Music Rights. We tried to create a song that would be danceable and organic sounding with emphasis on real instruments -- bass, guitar, piano. The song was really based around the guitars and a simple chord progression. Sound-wise we had a reference from another boy band of SM Entertainment's called NCT, which we originally aimed for: danceable, but not “synthy.”

“Forever”

Greg Bonnick of LDN NOISE: This was written in Seoul with Kenzie and Adrian McKinnon. We knew the vibe was perfect for EXO so we worked on it for about a week on and off to get it right, trying different chords and toplines. The intro part was initially the chorus. We thought, “Great, we nailed it,” but once we listened back, it needed to go up another gear. We then added the extra section, which is now the chorus, and it came to life and made it so much bigger.

To be honest, we wanted to make a “Monster” 2.0 but still be different and bigger, you know? We always have fun when we can mix hard hip-hop verses with a bright chorus, and for a group like EXO, it gives it the perfect balance.

We wanted to make a statement: this song, this album, it's EXO forever. We feel really connected to this group and the fans so it's important we got it right, and the feedback has been amazing, so we are very happy.

“Touch It”

Denzil Remedios: From what I recall, “Touch It” came to Ryan [Jhun]'s hands first. He got the song originally from the Jackie Boyz [Carlos and Steven Battey] and the Fliptonez. I think they sent it to him while we were still in Korea and this was actually more than a year ago now, maybe close to almost two years ago when they sent that record, and it just kinda connected right away. We heard what it could be -- it already sounded like the guts of a smash was there, at least something we could put into a big group's hands. From there, Ryan and I did what we normally do, which is pick it apart and say, “Hey, what parts could get stronger? What could we do extra with the production to pump it a little bit more?” That's how we got the record, and then we just worked on all those elements over probably months back and forth.

“Touch It,” when we first heard it, already had such a non-today-ish vibe -- a classic vibe. It's not like the everyday pop EDM electronic-y sound that everyone's doing, which was refreshing when we first heard it. We were like, “Yo, this sounds like an old Justin Timberlake, almost Michael Jackson type of thing.” That old school vibe. We didn't wanna change the production or toplining to the point where it didn't sound like that anymore. When we were hearing it, sonically we were like, “Cool, this can be something that a group like EXO can take and use for the album and it doesn't sound like everything else they would normally be putting out.”

We were thinking stage performance at the time too. It's just a really fun track that doesn't have to be too serious -- you don't have to have crazy choreography where they drop from the top of the stadium.

Chen: My imagination provides the most inspiration for the lyrics. For “Touch It,” I played out the lyrics in my mind as if it is like a scene from a movie when writing it. After completing the draft, I worked on it by fixing awkward pronunciations by singing along the lyrics with the music. This helped me figure out more suitable and comfortable words that would enhance the groove when listening to the song.

“Chill”

Otha “Vakseen” Davis: We went to a song camp last year -- I wanna say it was November -- and it was probably the third camp my team has been on. Anytime we go to song camps at SM, they usually have a focus for us as far as what to work on and I know we worked on some things for EXO. For any creator, you always wanna try to make an EXO project. We fell in love with the vibe and the energy[of “Chill”] in the studio and SM's team felt the same way about the record. That happened to be one that everybody loved -- the guys loved it ultimately when they heard it.

There were certain elements like the breakdown in “Chill” that was added at the camp, but we came with the ideas already fleshed out. Ultimately, [the breakdown] was to serve as a dance breakdown. K-pop acts, especially EXO, are very performance-oriented, so you wanna have sections to show out. You wanna make something that feels good but still can allow them to move.

Chanyeol: Usually it's common to work on the lyrics based on a demo guide, but for the song “Chill” I worked on the lyrics with an empty track without demo lyrics. I think that’s part of the reason why the lyrics were able to come out pretty naturally.

“Walk on Memories”

Albi Albertsson: In late 2015, Wassily Gradovsky, who was actually interning for me as a producer at that time, brought an instrumental to me, which was later to become the instrumental for “Walk on Memories.” He had recorded a loop on the upright piano I have in my living room and incorporated it into this smooth R&B style beat.

I immediately liked the chord progression and the vibe of the track, so I sent it to Justin Reinstein, a writer from New York who we had just started working with at that time. He had a very smooth topline and vocal style that I thought would be perfect for this track, so he worked on the instrumental to craft the melodies.

From then on it was only finalizing the song: I added stacks of vocal harmonies and other details to make it work better for a group performance and make it more “K-pop,” added some vocal adlibs and then finalized the production by adding more instruments and finalizing the mix.

When I sent it to EXO's A&R, he immediately loved it but wanted a more distinct intro that reflected the fantasy theme he had in mind for the new album. So instead of the very basic intro the track originally had, I came up with a new, more mysterious and vibey intro, which is the intro you can hear in the final version of the song.

Wassily Gradovsky: The track was influenced by the genres of '90s R&B and jazz, reimagined with contemporary sounds. The arrangement of the piano chords -- being arpeggiated from bottom to the top -- was inspired by Justin Timberlake's “Cry Me A River,” but with a lighter and more positive tone. The slightly melancholic bridge, which is modulating into the final uplifting chorus, represents an uplifting, “happy ending” twist to the story.

“Going Crazy”

Otha “Vakseen” Davis: It was something that we did maybe around February of 2016. They loved it and for some reason could not find the right topline for it -- I think they had one originally and it didn't work at the end of the day. So they had this track, it was already placed on EXO and my team was presented with the opportunity to write to it. So I had one of my writers go in and do what he does. Funny enough, it was supposed to go on the Ex'Act album. It was something that they loved, but it didn't make sense then. We were persistent. Between myself and my business partner, we [would say], “Hey, what about this one? Don't forget this record!” Fast forward to now, the new album was coming out, [and] we were finally able to get them to connect. I think we had to make a couple of edits on it between that year or so passing just to make sure it was as fresh as possible.

The track's over a year old -- there's something so special about it because you drop it now, 2017, and it's still hot, still relevant. And that's the goal: create timeless music that can be good any time.
