Soulmates

.9.

I'm finished getting ready and look to myself in the mirror. My hair is in loose curls and I have makeup on. I sigh, grab my phone and walk out of my room. I hear a bunch of people and I can tell this party is going to be big. I walk inside and immediately Aubrey walks over to me.

,,Chloe, I almost thought you weren't coming."

,,Of course." I look around but don't see Beca.

,,Who are you looking for? Tom isn't here, you know."

,,I'm not looking for Tom. Have you seen Beca?"

,,Beca's at the bar, but be careful she didn't look very happy to be here."

,,She will, thank you." I say goodbye and walk over to the bar. ,,Beca, you did come!" I say enthusiastically. She turns around and looks me in the eye.

,,Wow Chlo, you look -" She has a look on her face, which means that she doesn't know what to say.

,,Is it too much?" I look down at my dress. It's a black lace dress and I've chosen to wear a pink blazer over it. It's sexy, but not too sexy.

,,No, you look very sexy." I look up to her and smile.

,,You think I'm sexy?" I say with a little flirt in my voice.

,,That's not even a question. You're drop-dead gorgeous, everybody can see that."

,,Did you just gave me a compliment?" Beca laughs and gives me a friendly soft push.

,,Don't get used to it. Do you want something to drink?"

,,Yes please." Beca nods and orders the same drink I had in Los Angeles during summer break. We cheer with each other and keep eye contact. I have to kiss her. I put down my drink.

,,Don't you like the drink? Do you want another one?" Beca is obviously confused.

,,It's going to be the best drink ever, but we need to continue this later."

,,We?" I nod, grab her drink and place it on the bar. I step closer to her while my eyes keep looking into hers. ,,Chlo, what are you doing?" I ignore her question and grab the back of her head. I look to her lips and lean in. My lips touch hers and we both are closing our eyes. I kiss her for a few seconds, without Beca kissing me back. She's probably shocked that I'm kissing her. I open my eyes once again and see Beca already looking at me. I don't know what she's thinking right now, but the silence is killing me. Did I cross a line? Shouldn't I have kissed her? Why isn't she say anything? The silence lasts for only a few minutes, but a few minutes too long. I shouldn't have kissed her! I made a complete fool out of myself! I feel some tears prick in my eyes and turn around. I can't be here anymore! I take a step forward, but don't get further because Beca grabs my wrist and turns me back around. Our eyes meet once again and I swallow.

,,Becs I'm so sorry, I -" Before I can answer, Beca kisses me hard and pulls me closer to her body. I kiss her back with all the power in my body and I think I'm more in love with Beca than I am with Tom, but how can I tell him that? Beca plays with my bottom lip and I give Beca access to my tongue. We both lose ourselves completely in the kiss and it's even getting a little heated. My hand caresses her cheek and she pulls me closer if that's even possible. Her hands touch my bare skin on my back and the goosebumps are forming on my entire body. After a few more minutes, we pull apart and look each other deeply in the eyes. Wow, that was awesome!

,,Wow." Is the first thing Beca says and smiles.

,,My thought exactly." I smile back at her and grab my drink. I take a sip and can't stop looking at her. How am I suppose to tell Tom that I think I'm more in love with Beca than with him? He has anger issues and has beaten me before.

,,Chlo, what did that mean? You have a boyfriend and still, you're kissing me."

,,I needed to kiss you, because I didn't know what I felt for you."

,,And do you know that now?"

,,Yes, I really like you Becs."

,,So what you're trying to say is that you want to be my girlfriend?" Now her eyes fill themselves with hope, but I can't.

,,No." The moment that word came out of my mouth, Beca's expression changes completely. Is she really going to be mad? I patiently wait for an answer and sit down on the bar-stool.

.Beca.

What the heck Chlo?! You kissed me, you wanted to kiss me and now you don't want to be my girlfriend? You just told me you liked me?! I'm really lost in thoughts right now. How can you say that you like somebody and kiss them and don't want to go any further? Does Chloe know how I feel about her and is she just playing with my feelings?

,,Why did you kiss me?"

,,I told you that already, Becs. I really like you, but we can't be a thing."

,,And why's that? Is it not the case that if two people like each other, they have to go further than just kissing? That they have to go on dates and get to know each other more?"

,,Yes, but it isn't that easy. I love Tom and -"

,,And yet you kissed me! Chlo, I'm not stupid. You've used me for your own pleasure, you don't care about me at all!"

,,That's not true. I care about you a lot, but we can't date. Tom will not only destroy me, but he'll come after you too and I don't want anything to happen to you." I sigh a little, drink my drink in a gulp and walk away from her. ,,Beca!" she yells. I turn around and look her in the eyes.

,,I just need some air, I'll be fine." I tell her, give her a little smile and walk out.

The cool air hits my face and calms me down. I can't believe her! How am I suppose to look at her again? Why am I letting her use me? Why does she say that Tom will hurt me? Ugh, she drives me nuts!

,,Beca just the girl I wanted to see." I look up and see Lindsey.

,,I'm not in the mood to be happy." I honestly say.

,,Oh damn, who hurt you?" She asks while sitting next to me.

,,Chloe." I look at her and I'm glad she's here. We aren't dating for real, but I can sense that she cares about me either way.

,,You don't have to tell me if you don't want to. I'm here for you either way."

,,Thank you, I don't really want to talk about it." I take a deep breath and look back at her. ,,Why were you looking for me?"

,,It's about our deal. We can't pretend to date anymore."

,,Why not? I can see it's working because sometimes Chloe's being jealous."

,,I know, but I came from the doctor this morning. Beca, I'm pregnant."

,,But that's awesome!" I stand up and pull her with me. I give her a loving hug and she looks at me surprised.

,,Wait, you're not mad?"

,,Why would I be mad? You wanted to have a family with Kyle right?"

,,Yeah, but now I can't help you with making Chloe jealous."

,,It's okay, we just tell everybody we grew apart. We have maintained our fake relationship for weeks, so thank you for that time."

,,So what are you going to do about Chloe now?"

,,I really don't know, but I know one thing, I won't let her hurt me again."

,,Good for you, don't lose yourself trying to impress some girl."

,,I won't. Thank you again for having my back and I wish you all the best with Kyle and the little one." I point to her belly and she smiles.

,,Thank you and don't worry too much about Chloe, I know she'll love you eventually. You're such a sweet and helpful girl." I give her another hug and watch her leave. Lindsey is great, but Chloe's way cuter and prettier. Too bad I can't have her!
