Chapter 11: Double Date

BECA'S POV

Chloe and I are getting ready for our date with Leila and Megan at her dorm, simply because the ginger was too nervous and afraid to get ready herself in fear that she would end up cancelling. She's currently in the shower while I am trying to figure out what to wear. I brought over a small bundle of clothes from my dorm that would be appropriate, I mean we're only going out for a bite to eat at a diner so nothing too fancy. I'm opting for a leather jacket, grey beanie, white t shirt with a black and blue flannel tied around my waist with a pair of black skinny jeans and combat boots. I'm doing my makeup a little more subtle than usual with the exception of my trademark dark eye makeup however, my hair is going to be flowing messily under my beanie which was the excuse to wear it just so I wouldn't have to do my hair.

"Chloe? You nearly ready I gotta pee!" I shout into my friend who has literally been in the bathroom for what feels like forever. She brought in a pile of clothes with her to try on just completely disregarding the fact that I am a human and humans have bladders. "Yeah can you zip me up Becs?" I hear her shout back out to me and I roll my eyes before walking towards the bathroom, I give a small knock to the door and soon I see a very beautiful looking Chloe Beale in the doorway.

"Woah..." I trail off, I'm completely gobsmacked, her hair is up in a ponytail, which is something Chloe rarely does. She has this light silver eyeshadow on that makes her eyes pop her eyeliner is so sharp that she could literally cut someone but the best part is her outfit. She went for this black lace blouse with a baby blue collar which really helps to make those beautiful blue orbs pop. She's wearing a pair of denim skinny jeans that just hug her body in all the right places and some canvas shoes but her look is so natural that it highlights that ever so stunning and naturally beautiful Chloe Beale.

"Beca? The zip on the back of the blouse... can you?" She asks while biting her lip, I shake my head and come out of my trance to walk behind her and zip her up. "Chloe seriously you look amazing! Megan is going to be in awe!"

"She isn't the only one I presume!" She quips turning and winking to me causing me to blush suddenly before turning away and hiding my face. Beca Mitchell is a badass and doesn't blush, why did I blush? More importantly how did Chloe make me blush, we're friends nothing more! It must be the temperature Chloe's dorm is always super warm for some reason.

"Did I just make the Beca Mitchell blush?!" She asks with a shocked expression in the mirror to which I roll my eyes and zip up the back of her blouse. "Chloe it's like always warm in your dorm c'mon! And I don't blush mkay?" The redhead giggle a little and we walk out of the dorm and down the stairs towards the parking lot. I take the keys out of my back pocket and start twirling them around my finger as we make our way towards my car and I begin to whistle the intro to Titanium. "Beca what are you doing?" Chloe asks a little hesitant and worried, turning to face her I give her a dumbfounded expression and say I was whistling the tune of the first song we sang together.

"God I know that silly! But why do you have your keys out?" "Umm... coz we're going to meet the girls and I'm driving?"

Chloe walks forward and snatches the keys from my hand before shaking her head. "Sorry Becs but there's a possibility that we could be drinking and I don't want you to drink and drive okay? I'll order us a taxi." I sighed and went to say something but Chloe held up her finger to shush me as she took her phone out and dialed for a cab. "Red seriously we are going to a diner, we're not going to be drinking okay?"

"I'm a party girl Mitchell you know this! There's a possibility that we could be now take that look off your face taxi will be here soon!"

Rolling my eyes I decide to sit on the nearby steps of the door we had just come out of, taking out my phone I give a text to Leila telling her we're waiting for a taxi. I look up and see Chloe finish the phone call, as she walks over to me I see her lip quiver a bit and she rubs her hands up and down her arms. "Cold Beale?" I ask jokingly and she nods slightly while giggling again. I smirk as I take off my leather jacket and hand it to her as I sit there in my t shirt, she refuses it so I press for her to take it off me again. "You sure? Beca you're going to be freezing!" I shake my head and say I won't, she takes the jacket eventually and drapes it over her shoulders before turning to me and smiling. "Thank you Becs."
