When a Hero must return
A/N: Welcome back bechloe lovers! Thankyou all for reading, voting and following thus far and tagging along this amazing adventure. I'm glad you all have been enjoying this and stuck with it to this point, and are looking forward to the next load of surprises to come. Now I know this has been a mighty long story, even longer then the rest, but I'm sure it'll all be worth it. Also, I will try my best to make sure that "part two" of this story won't be as long as part one and moves along pretty well. So, sorry for the long a/n, just wanted to brief you guys on all of that. Without further ado, let's get moving along.
In these past few months, Beca never ceased to amaze the ginger and those around her. She said she was gonna start a new chapter in her life and retire as Spider-Woman and she has done just that. She has never once suited up to get back into the action and amazingly enough, these were the happiest months of beca's life. Chloe had watched in awe and been with her every step of the way on her new journey, and she could not be any prouder of what her amazing wife had become. In the past several months, Beca had dedicated her entire life to being a world-class music maker, a devoted loving wife, and an expecting mother.
As Chloe's belly grew bigger, so did Beca's career, and her change in life at that matter. She had grown to become the spectacular artist known as Becs. She would work her magic, come home to take care of her beautiful wife, put on shows for the radio, make a local stage performance. She's even gone on a few tours, sometimes Chloe could join her and sometimes she sadly couldn't, but Beca would always return and have a warm welcome when she did. Beca was certainly making an unexpected impression, and Chloe was loving it.
She too had been the happiest she could ever be this whole time. She had a loving, dedicated, talented wife, a job she loved and a baby on the way. And the craziest part about it was, her life in acappella wasn't even a part of it. It may have paved the way for her to get here, but it was nowhere near what was making her feel this happy and this whole. Now she was about a month in a half away from her due date and she and Beca were now having the baby shower with all the maniacs, some friends and relatives, all bearing dozens of baby gifts.
"You are such a cutie" Beca said in an adorable voice as she played with Bella-Cappella, Aubrey and Stacie's baby. "You guys did so good" she added with a smile.
"Oh please, if anybody did well, it's her" Aubrey nudged her head towards Stacie as she shifted the baby in her arms. "I was a nervous wreck the whole time and she handled it all like a pro" she stated proudly.
"Y-You did fine" Stacie laughed as she gently took their daughter into her arms. "You think they'll get along?" she nodded towards Chloe's stomach.
"I'm sure they will" the redhead nodded with a bright smile.
"Huh, you guys gonna be best friends?" Stacie asked cutely as she bounced the baby a little, making her laughing and smile.
"Ah more then likely they'll have a sibling rivalry that's really fierce" Beca smirked mischievously, receiving a nudge to the arm from the ginger and looks from the other two that were half irritated and half trying not to laugh.
"You know we could've bought them matching outfits, right?" Aubrey quirked an eyebrow with an equally mischievous smirk.
"Yea, but you know that would've been torn up the minute I saw it" Beca countered, the four ladies all giggling from the discussion.
"Hey guys" Fat Amy chimed in. "Sorry, but I wanted to give you this one while no-one else was looking" she noted as she handed Beca and Chloe the gift.
Beca quickly opened the bag to find a little red and yellow outfit inside. "What is this?" Beca giggled.
"A baby sized superhero outfit I made, just thought it be nice" she shrugged with a proud look.
The ladies wished they could say they were surprised, but this was so typical of her. "Thanx Amy" Beca rolled her eyes with a half smirk, Chloe shaking her head amusingly. Then, the brunette noticed Tony Stark and his fiancee Pepper enter the house. "Tony" she smiled.
The billionaire turned with a smile before accepting the artist's hug. "Hey Beca, sorry I'm late, and I'm also sorry that none of the others could make it" he quickly stated.
"It's alright, glad someone came" she assured as she and Chloe gave welcoming hugs to Pepper.
"Well, they did however play a hand in making these" he noted as he handed a gift to Chloe. The ginger dug through the bag to see a photograph with the entire superhero assembly together, Beca included, with signed signatures from each of em, and a whole bunch of action figures.
"Aww, thankyou" Chloe smiled with a slight laugh from the toys.
"Ur welcome, and me Tony also got you these" Pepper added as she handed the two another gift. Beca removing the ribbon on the tiny little box before finding two little heart lockets inside.
"Aww" Chloe smiled.
"You each get one, and it's so you two can have a picture of ur significant other in one side and the baby in the other" she informed.
"Why thankyou" Beca smiled as she and Chloe each took a locket in their hand. "We'll definitely make good use of these" she nodded and Tony and Pepper smiled proudly.
The night was filled with all kinds of sweet and amazing gifts, the best mostly coming from the former acappella group. Emily wrote a sweet song for them and the baby, Cynthia Rose bought a little karaoke machine, Flo got mostly clothes along with Stacie and Beca and Chloe's parents, Aubrey got them all free memberships to the lodge as well as different scout and camping programs with a gorgeous baby necklace and bracelets. As for Lily, or Ester, she actually bought em a nice little baby outfit, but then something that Beca and Chloe rather not mention. But the entire night was great nonetheless, and filled with lots of happy moments.
Now the party was over and it was time for everyone to start heading out. Just about every person has had the chance to feel or rub Chloe's swollen belly, none more then Emily, and were all now beginning to leave.
"Please, just a little longer" Emily begged in a cute way as Beca tried to get her and Amy to leave.
"Sorry, it's time to go" Beca laughed. "But thanx for coming guys, we loved seeing you here"
"Same here" Amy smiled. "I'll see you guys next friday, right?"
"Yes" Beca nodded.
"And I'll try to visit more often" Emily noted promisingly.
"Sounds great, we'd love to have you here" Beca smiled.
"Alright, see you later" she smiled.
"Bye" Amy waved.
"Bye guys" Beca waved back before closing the door. She made her way back to her wife, who she saw carrying a box of some of the gifts upstairs. "Woah woah woah, what do you think ur doing?" she ran up behind her in an instant.
"Just carrying these upstairs" she shrugged innocently, Beca raising an eyebrow at her. "Honey, it's not a big deal" Chloe rubbed her arm assuringly.
"Even so, I would feel much better if you let me do the heavy lifting, at least for now" Beca noted as she took the box from her wife. "Let me get this stuff taken care of and I'll make you something, ok?" she pleaded with an adoring smile, one that Chloe couldn't say no to ever.
"Alright" she slightly groaned with a slightly amused smile, receiving a peck on the lips in return.
Chloe sat on the living room couch and awaited for Beca to return with whatever she was making. It was only a small matter of minutes before the brunette joined her with one of her favorite drinks, a strawberry vanilla smoothie with a cherry and chocolate chips sprinkled. "Oh man you are awesome" she stated once she saw the drink placed on the table.
"I know" she smiled proudly as she took a seat next to her.
"But I don't think this falls under the 'pregnancy diet' category" she noted with a slight chuckle.
"I know, but I think you've stuck with it long enough to earn this" she smiled as she leaned her head on her wife's shoulder.
Chloe took a nice long gulp of her sweet beverage as Beca laid her head down on her lap, right next to Chloe's swollen belly. "Mmm, everything I need right now" Chloe hummed as she kept the drink next to her and ran her hand along beca's cheek and through her hair, feeling like the richest woman alive right now.
"You know, whenever I imagine ur life as a child, I always picture you being one of those girls that like fantasizes having her own mansion made out of chocolate" Beca stated.
"I may have at some point in my life" she laughed and Beca giggled. "You alright? You seemed a little off during the whole shower" Chloe revealed.
"No I'm fine, really" she assured, but Chloe still seemed a little concerned. "I guess it's just this feeling" she noted.
"You mean the fealing that ur duties as Spider-Woman haven't been fully accomplished yet?" she asked, Beca had expressed that to her long ago
"Yea, I mean it's not that I miss it, which I do but it's not that, it's just something that keeps pulling me back and I feel like there's something else I need to do" she importantly noted.
"I get it" Chloe nodded. "Maybe you do and that something you need to accomplish hasn't arrived yet, or you just need a little more time to find the serenity to let that go" she stated suggestively. "Just give it time, you'll see" she added encouragingly.
Beca smiled at her kind words. "This is exactly why I married you" she duely noted, flattering the ginger.
"And thankyou, by the way" Chloe added, Beca not knowing what she meant. "For taking care of me, even though it's not really needed" she continued and Beca chuckled. "Also, for doing all of this, being here with me, putting up with all the weirdness that comes with it" she went on and Beca giggled again. "I'm so proud of you, for doing all of this, for being so willing and for being...so good at doing all of this, you never cease to amaze me" she proudly stated.
Beca had a big blush creep in her cheeks from the kind remark as the corners of her mouth grew wider and wider. "Well, I could, and would, do anything for you" she greatly replied, now flattering the redhead. "And for you too" she turned her head towards Chloe's stomach and placed a kiss right in the center of her swollen skin, Chloe caressing her cheek as her grin grew wide and her heart sped it's pace. Then, Beca felt the tiniest little jolt from her stomach, meeting her wife's widened eyes. "Dude! That is crazy!" she scoffed.
"I guess someone is feeling the same way and wants to say thankyou" she smiled brightly.
"Hi little guy" Beca rubbed her belly. "When you get here, and you get to see how beautiful ur mom is, you'll want to do anything for her as well" she proudly stated, melting the ginger's heart. "I'd do anything for her, I'd do anything for you, and I really love you both" she stated before placing another kiss on her belly.
"And neither one of us can wait to meet you" Chloe followed with a rub on her belly, Beca kissing her hand once it was close enough. Chloe took another gulp of her smoothie and they felt the baby move again.
"Are you enjoying the smoothie?" Beca asked and Chloe giggled.
"I hope that's the case, I hate to have a kid that wouldn't like this type of beverage" Chloe stated.
"Would you rather have sugar junky energizing bunny?" Beca raised an eyebrow curiously.
"Maybe" she shrugged and the two giggled before Chloe took another sip of her drink.
"So what now?" Beca asked.
"I'm gonna finish this, and then I think there's another shower we need to take" she responded, Beca shooting up her brow.
"Do you need help with that? It is a big drink" she noted and Chloe giggled again and adorably.

The next day, Beca woke up to the absence of feeling her lovely wife and her pregnant belly next to her. She had stayed up a little later in working on a song, so she figured she may have slept later too. She got out of bed and sleepily made her way downstairs to the living room. There, she found her wife standing and staring at the t.v., unable to see the horrific look she had on her face.
"Hey, you know you shouldn't be sta-what the hell" she grew the same expression when she noticed what she was staring at on the television. It was a story about a bank robbery that occured last night. They couldn't see who exactly the robbers were, all they could see was a bunch of sand everywhere that was somehow knocking cars away and turning into arms and giant objects. Not only that, but then they saw streaks of lightning and electricity going everywhere and striking everything in sight right before the footage was cut.
Beca turned to her wife, sharing a worried and knowing expression. "I guess that moment came sooner then we hoped" Chloe frowned worriedly, but knew what Beca needed to do and couldn't stop her.
"I don't hafta go" beca assured, Chloe giving a slight smirk that her wife would say that.
"Yes you do" she nodded. "And as much as I love that you would say and do that, it would be selfish of me" she stated knowingly, beca's heart nearly sinking at her words, but also happy and relieved that she was being so understanding and accepting.
"I really do wish I didn't hafta go" Beca admitted.
"I know, but this city needs it's protector, and it can have it, as long as you come back home to me" she stated assuringly, Beca leaning in for a deep, comforting hug.
"Always have, always will" she replied promisingly with a kiss on the shoulder. "I'll see if Tony will come with, and I'll call Amy or Emily to see if either of them can come over" she quickly noted.
"Ok, I'll call em for you" she replied.
"And please don't go watching the news to see what happens" Beca begged desperately.
Chloe let out a sigh before responding. "Ok, I won't" she agreed.
"Promise?"
"You keep your's, I'll keep mine" she smiled before giving Beca a deep deep kiss that neither wanted to break, but Beca had to before long and before she lost the will to. "Now go get em tiger" Chloe ordered and Beca did just that, charging upstairs to retrieve her Spidey suit.
She went up to the bedroom and into the walk-in closet. There, at the very back wall, was a secret sliding door that Amy and Tony both played a part in installing, was well hidden behind the clothes and concealed all of her Spidey suits. She entered the closet and typed in the code on the pad on the side wall, opening the door and revealing the row of Spidey suits hanging side-by-side each other. Beca was standing right in front of the red, white and blue fancy one that Tony created, looking straight into the eyes of the mask.
"Welcome back Spidey"
