Chloe's shift had just started and it was very crowded. The bar was almost full and she was running around trying to serve everyone. She liked to be friendly with every customer.
"Hello! Welcome!" She said to a man who had just walked in walked in and he sat down.
"Hi." He replied.
"What can I get you?" She asked in her usual energetic voice.
"Just a beer would be great thanks." He replied.
She got him a beer immediately and gave it to him. She went to serve the next customer.
"Wait Miss!" He called out.
"Yes?" She asked and walked over to him. She needed to carry on the process.
"Call me sometime." He said and slid her a napkin.
"Sorry I don't date men." She replied and walked away. He was left confused.
Beca walked into the bar. She had just moved to a new apartment right above the bar and wanted to check it out.
She walked in and sat down in the seat next to the confused man. She could only see the back of the redhead and Chloe couldn't see her.
"Hey what's wrong?" She asked the man.
"I tried to give the bartender my number, but she said she doesn't date men. Does that mean she's gay?" He asked.
"Yeah, I mean I'm gay too." Beca replied.
"Great!" The man said sarcastically and left.
Beca cleared her throat to get the redhead's attention.
"Oh I'm so sor..." Chloe began but couldn't continue upon seeing who was sitting at the bar.
The second she saw those bright blue eyes, Beca immediately knew who it was. It was Chloe Beale.
"Hi Becs. It's been a while." Chloe said and walked over to Beca.
"Yeah." Beca replied.
Beca had left for LA, but never got her big break. Now she lived in a small apartment in New York with her roommate.
"So how was LA?" Chloe asked in a sassy tone.
"You don't care." Beca said, even sassier.
"You're right I don't. You left me." Chloe said.
"I know and I'm sorry." Beca apologized.
"Anyway, what do you want?" Chloe asked.
"Nachos and a beer please." Beca said.
"Pork or beef?" Chloe asked.
"Pork. Thanks Chlo." Beca said.
Chloe made Beca nachos and got Beca her drink.
"So, how have you been?" Beca asked.
"Alright, except I work her to make enough money to pay rent and I have an awful roommate who does not respect my privacy." Chloe complained.
"It's okay. Just lock your door." Beca said.
"I've tried Becs. It's like she wants to know every little detail about my life." Chloe said.
"I don't blame her. You're pretty interesting." Beca said and smiled.
"Are you flirting with me?" Chloe said in a fake offended tone.
"No." Beca said and winked.
From that day on, Beca went to the bar almost every day and talked to Chloe. Eventually they started dating and got married. Their lives were great all because Beca decided to go to a bar.
