Forever

9. Pop the Question

BECA

Emily's wedding was beautiful. Even though she is technically Mrs. Benjamin Applebottom, I personally think that Benji is Mr. Emily Junk. And that's what got me thinking. When Chole and I are married, would I be Beca Beale? Or would she be Chloe Mitchell? Or would we be Mitchell-Beale or vice versa? I just couldn't wait till I married her. My fiery red-head. Her graduation was in a few weeks. I was going to ask her to marry me the day before. Soon. So soon.

"You ready for this Beca?" Aubrey asked me, her camera hanging around her neck.

"Yes." I responded with such certainty in my voice. This was the one thing I was ever certain of anymore. I wanted to spend the rest of my life with Chloe.

"Alright then. Let's do this thing." Aubrey went to hide somewhere so she could get pictures. I stood there in the center of the Brooklyn Botanic Gardens. It was simiallar to the green back at Barden. The place where we first met about 12 years ago. I saw her bright red hair approaching me. Dark skinny jeans, black boots and a green flannel. My green flannel. I putt my hand in my jeans pocket. My fingers brushing the ring. My mom's ring resized to fit Chloe's finger.

"Hey." She said lacing her fingers in mine.

"How is it that you look better in my clothes than me?" I joked.

"I have no clue." She smiled. We walked around for a bit before we got to the spot where Aubrey said she would be.

"I have a question."

"What's up?'

CHLOE

"Chloe, you've been my rock for like 12 years now. And I know we've only been dating for like a year of it but," Beca got down on one knee and pulled something out of her pocket, "Chloe Beale, Will you make me the happiest girl in the world, and marry me?" She held out a ring. It was simple and beautiful. A gold band with a diamondin the center.

"Yes. Yes! Of course I'll marry you." I pulled Beca to her feet. She Slide the ring onto my finger. "A perfect fit. When did you buy me a ring?"

"I didn't."

"Then how...?"

"It was my mom's. When we visited your family I went to buy you one but people were really homophobic. So I got mom's resized to fit you. It's what she would have wanted."

"Its beautiful."

"Just like you."

I smiled and pulled her in for a kiss.

Then next few months were filled with wedding planning. Neither of us really understood how much effort actually went into planning a wedding. But Aubrey was more than willing to help. We ended up asking her to be our wedding planner. She accepted obviously. Beca and I started counting down the days till we were married. I could not wait for the day when I was Mrs. Beca Mitchell. We decided that I would take Beca's name as Beca Beale sounded strange. And Chloe Mitchell actually had a nice ring to it. 

**AUTHOR'S NOTE**

Sorry It took so long to get a new chapter up. But now that school is closed because of COVID-19, I have more time to write. I'll try to get a chapter up once a day but if I skip a day or 2 don't come at me. I hope everyone is staying save. I love you awesome nerds. And as always. 

MAKE GOOD CHOICES!
