Deciding not to take a shift at work after-school Beca went straight home after spending some time in the school gym. The brunette would shut the door to her car, slinging her bag over her shoulder as she'd walk towards the front door. The sound of giggling and laughter coming from upstairs as Beca would drop her bag by the front door, after entering the house, caused her to roll her eyes and scoff. "Brilliant", she'd mumble to herself as she'd make her way into the kitchen to look for food.
"Beca, is that you?", she'd hear her brother's voice coming from upstairs, probably his bedroom.
"No shit, Sherlock", she'd mumble again, forcing on a smile as she'd turn around with a beer in her hand to see both Tom and Chloe walk into the kitchen.
"We just ordered a pizza, I didn't think you was coming home until later", he'd apologise, while leaning forward against the breakfast bar.
Beca, who probably should of been focused on the conversation with her twin brother, but was more focused on Chloe's hand that was rubbing up and down Tom's back, totally ignored her brother's comment. She'd gulp and look down a little, before taking a long swig of her beer.
"Beca?", he'd furrow his eyebrows, looking confused at his sister.
"Huh? What?", she'd frown, getting bored already of this conversation.
"What are you going to do about dinner?", he'd ask again, standing up straighter this time to put his arm around Chloe.
"I'll figure something out", Beca would shrug her shoulders, quickly glancing over in the redhead's direction to lock eyes with Chloe for a few seconds.
"Well, how about I phone them up now and order another pizza and then I'll quickly drive over and pick it up?", he'd take his phone out now to phone the local pizza place.
"Yes, and while you're gone me and Beca can get started on the English assignment", Chloe would clasp her hands together before shooting a small glare towards Beca, who was now stood frozen in place with the beer bottle pressed to her lips.
"W-What?", she'd whisper.
"Perfect, I'll do that now and be back in around fifteen minutes", Tom would smile and kiss Chloe on the cheek before walking out of the room with his phone pressed to his ear.
"Let's go Mitchell", Chloe smirked and turned on her heel, swaying her hips slightly as she'd make her way out to the dining table. Beca didn't know if it was the way Chloe acted so confident or if was just the view she had of the cheerleader's ass as she turned and walked away, but it made the soccer star follow and sit down next to her. The brunette would continue to scroll through her phone and sip regularly on the beer in her hand as she'd ignore the notebooks and a copy of 'Romeo and Juliet' that was being placed in front of her. "Okay, so I'm going to start making some notes about which parts we could perhaps do our essay on and I need you to start reading the book so you can then choose and help me decide", Chloe would quickly explain as she'd click her pen and open the fresh notebook.
Beca had ignored the redhead once more as she'd try to avoid doing any work, especially work that included any reading. As she continued to scroll through her phone, texting back and forth to a number of girls on her instagram, she'd notice the small glances that kept being thrown her way by Chloe next to her. She'd smirk as she'd realise that Chloe had reached the end of her patience and turned to look at her, slamming her pen down on the table.
"Are you seriously just going to sit there and do nothing?", she'd angrily snap.
"I'm not doing nothing Beale, I'm making some deals with people", Beca would smirk and try to hide her smile as she'd continue to tease and wind Chloe up more.
"You mean you're arranging your next hook up in the janitor's closet?", she'd cross her arms, "You do realise that is the most cliche hookup spot, right?"
"Yup, but it's quick, easy and seeing as it hasn't been found out yet by anyone else then why not?", she'd casually shrug her shoulders, ignoring the eye roll she then received from the fiery redhead beside her.
"Look, I don't care", this made Beca smirk again knowing that she was starting to annoy the cheerleader, "Can you please just read some of the book?", Chloe would lean over, closer to Beca, to open the book to the first page and pointing down to the first line.
Beca would sigh and look down at the page, trying to focus on the words but feeling the frustration grow inside of her as she'd watch the words float and the letters jumble up in front of her. "Why can't you just tell me when the paper is done and I'll write my name at the top"
"What's the matter this time?", Chloe would huff and look back over at the brunette, she'd furrow her eyebrows more when she'd notice the confused and frustrated look on Beca's face. "Beca..", she'd quietly whisper, reaching forward to place her hand on top of the brunette's arm.
Switching to that cold hard exterior in a split second Beca would sigh and move her arm away, standing up, "I've just remembered that I promised I'd go and see Stacie after school", she'd quickly try to move out of the room to grab her leather jacket again.
"Beca wait, please don't leave", Chloe would catch up to her, "you don't need to make up an excuse just to get out of doing the work", she'd sigh and run a hand through her red locks, "if you really don't want to do any work tonight, I suppose we can postpone it until another time", she'd smile softly.
"And what would we do instead until my dear brother comes back and ruins our fun?", Beca would change moods quickly again as she'd wink at the redhead and take a step closer to Chloe, causing the redhead to move backwards and jump as she'd feel her back hit the table behind her.
"W-What would you.. like to do?", Chloe would gulp, feeling a heat start to rise towards her chest and cheeks as Beca would trap her by placing her arms either side, against the table.
"Oh, I could think of lots of fun things we could do", she'd wink again and allow her eyes to run down the cheerleader's body slowly, smiling as she'd watch Chloe's cheeks start to blush as her eyes would move back up to lock with the baby blue pools that she so desperately wanted to dive right into.
"B-Beca, I'm with T-Tom", Chloe would try to calm down and focus but all she could think about was the urge to lean forward and crash her lips onto the inviting brunette's in front of her. The way Beca's tongue would slowly come into view as she'd wet her bottom lip and then the sight of that lip being bitten on, was making her teenage hormones go crazy.
"Why though?", Beca knew that she had Chloe right where she wanted her, which is why she decided to take it one more tiny step further by slowly but softly moving her left hand to graze against the redhead's hip, before settling against her waist, gliding it under her shirt slowly so that she was now touching her bare skin. "He can't make you feel anything close to what I could do"
"B-Beca.. I-I.. want.."
Click!
The sound of a key being put into the lock of the front door behind her caused Beca to smirk and move away quickly, picking up the beer from the table and walking into the living room. Little did she know, that she had left a very flustered, heavy breathing, redhead stood still leaning against the table as her mind would try to wrap around everything that had just happened in the last minute but then how it ended in a matter of seconds.
Seeing her boyfriend walk in holding pizza boxes in her hand, Chloe forced a casual smile on her face and ran her fingers through her hair to help ease the feeling that was burning in her stomach. "That was quick", she'd step forward to take one of the boxes and walk into the kitchen, Tom following closely behind her.
"All I had to do was pay when I got there, they must of been having a slow night because the pizzas were already done", the taller Mitchell smiled back at Chloe, not even releasing the compromising position his sister and girlfriend were just in before he interrupted them.
As she'd grab plates out of the cupboard and would walk into the living room to sit down, Chloe couldn't help but wonder. "What would have happened if Tom didn't come home? If he had been just 5 minutes later what would he have walked in to see instead?", she'd start to feel the guilt take over her as she'd try to avoid looking up at the girl on the opposite sofa.
"Well it's nice to see that you guys didn't kill each other while I was gone", Tom would laugh as he'd join Chloe on the sofa next to her, placing the pizza boxes on the small table in front of them to take from.
"You make it sound like I hate your girlfriend Tom", Beca would smirk and look over at the couple, Chloe keeping her head down and chewing on her lip, Tom smiling back at her, smirking.
"That's because I thought you did", he'd lean forward and take a slice of the pepperoni pizza, still joking with his sister, happy that her mood had finally lifted from school today.
"I don't think anyone could ever hate Chloe Beale", as Beca would lean forward she'd look back over at Chloe, who this time was staring right back at her. "Isn't that right, princess?", she'd discreetly wink before moving to sit back in her seat, biting down to hide the smirk she so desperately wanted to show as she'd notice a slight blush creep up Chloe's neck to her cheeks once again.
...
Later that evening, once Chloe had got home and climbed into bed, she finally got a chance to think over the events of today. Beca being so cold and distant from her this morning at school, with no explanation or reasoning as to why. Then catching Beca after her very obvious hook-up with another girl at school, which brought out an unknown feeling of anger towards the brunette who seemed to think it was hilarious that Chloe had seen her. Finally, the way Beca had acted when they were alone together in not only the brunette's house, but the house in which she was meant to be spending time with her boyfriend.
All of a sudden, the redhead realised that when she thought about her day and the main events, she didn't think of Tom once. And to make matters worse, as if she had been reading her mind, Chloe's phone buzzed with a message from an Unknown Number, but was very obvious as to who the message was from.
Unknown Number: You left without saying goodbye Beale, did my brother bore you that much? - 10:23pm
Me: How did you even get my number? - 10:24pm
Before Chloe could put her phone down and turn off her bedside lamp, the phone buzzed again.
Unknown Number: I made up an excuse to Tommy that I needed your number to organise our next study date ;) - 10:24pm
Me: Made up an excuse, huh? If you wanted my number Mitchell, all you had to do was ask x - 10:25pm
"Why did I just say that? And a kiss?! Chloe, why are you flirting back with her?!", she started to feel guilty as soon as she looked over her message again and then watched the three dots bounce across the screen, signalling that Beca was typing back to her.
Unknown Number: I prefer the chase and a bit of a challenge ;) - 10:26pm
"Challenge? Is she referring to me being with Tom?", Chloe shook her head trying to rid her mind of thoughts before she replied once again.
Me: How do you know if it's worth the chase? - 10:28pm
Me: I need to get some sleep, but can we please go to the library during free period tomorrow to start the essay - 10:28pm
Chloe quickly changed the name on Beca's contact as she waited for the final reply before she'd get settled into bed.
BM: I'll let you know if it was worth it, but I'm pretty positive it will go in my favour ;), see you tomorrow Chlo x - 10:30pm
Me: Goodnight Becs x - 10:30pm
As she moved further down into the bed, her head resting on the soft pillow Chloe couldn't help but smile as she closed her eyes and started to drift off to sleep.
