"To me, where the wild things are is a place that exists in our minds. The place of liberty and shamelessness.

It can take a split second or a lifetime to find it.

But once you do, you will be free."

- Alessia Cara


" Yo losers! Spot. Now." Beca called as she ran down the street notebook and pen in her hand. She caught the attention of her friends who were all scattered on her street "Let's go, let's go!"

Chloe smiled as she grabbed her camera from its place next to her on her steps, she ran to Aubrey's house and knocked on her door. It opened seconds later and Aubrey ran out as she grabbed Chloe's hand. Next, to join the three running was Jesse and Benji, the only boys of the group, they caught up quickly. Benji had his laptop bag while Jesse carried his messenger bag filled with god knows what. They soon slowed as they entered the woods of their neighborhood. It was silent and peaceful, secluded to the noise of the busy streets. The group found this area when they were exploring as 11-year-olds.

"Hey Becaw, what was this call for?" Jesse asked walking up to Beca who held her notebook close to her chest.

"I wanted to show you something-"

"Like a song?" Chloe interrupted excitedly

Beca smiled at Chloe's excitement and nodded, causing the girl the squeal happily. Beca covered her ears and rolled her eyes "Not that exciting Beale," As they entered a small clearing in the woods they saw Stacie and Emily laying in the grass talking to each other quietly, Beca called out to them causing them to scream and jump up.

"Shit Mitchell!" Stacie yells clutching her chest in fear "don't do that shit you fuck!"

Beca set her book and pen on a rock that was as tall as a table and went up to Stacie. As she came closer, she tackled Stacie to the ground. Stacie and Beca began tackling each other for dominance over the situation. Jesse and Aubrey cheered as Chloe helped Emily up before she was attacked. After a couple moments of wrestling, Beca gave up and let Stacie pin her to the ground, straddling her Stacie smirked down at the short brunette. "I win."

Beca smiled up at Stacie before looking down at her chest and smirking mischievously "Yeah but at least I get a nice view." Beca placed her hands on Stacie's hips and winked.

Stacie rolled her eyes and stood up, the five-person audience cheered as she bowed and smugly smiled down at Beca. "Do I at least get a participation award?" Beca pouted crossing her arms as she sat up. The six others gathered in a circle as they sat on the grass. Chloe next to Beca on her left, Aubrey next to Chloe, Jesse next to Aubrey, Emily next to Jesse, Benji next to Emily, and Stacie next to Benji, on the right of Beca. This is the order they always sat in since they were 11, they don't know when this seating arrangement started or why they still remember but they don't question it.

"No, you lost fair and square!" Stacie teased.

"You were also the one to draw first blood by tackling her to the ground" Jesse states matter-of-factly

Beca laid back down on the ground and whined: "Technically I forfeited!"

"Then you're not a loser, just a big pussy!" Aubrey says causing the other 5 to laugh. Beca grabbed a pebble that she had been playing with and launched it at Aubrey, hitting her in the head. "Dude fuck you!" Beca laughed as she clutched her stomach. Aubrey whispered something into Chloe's ear causing the girl to smile and nod.

Chloe tapped Beca on her shoulder causing the brunette to sober up fast "Hey Beca" Chloe purred "Still want that award?"

"Oh hell yeah, what do you have for me red?" Beca says smirking at the ginger currently shifting so she was directly in front of Beca.

"This." Chloe attacked Beca's lips forcefully causing the brunette to fall back in awe. Chloe laughed and wiped her lips before sitting back down next to Aubrey. Jesse and Stacie cheered and whooped while Emily rolled her eyes at her friends antics. Benji was laughing while he pulled out his laptop.

"Damn Beale, do that to me too!" Stacie says from the other side of Beca "I am the winner after all"

Beca sat up quickly and shook her head "Hell no, only I get to kiss red."

"You can't keep Chloe to yourself Beca," Emily quietly says causing them to look over at her. She quickly turned away and blushed "Uh I mean-"

"Awe Em, do you want a kiss too?" Chloe says in a baby voice to tease the youngest in the group. Emily was the last to join the group and respectively was the youngest. While her friends were 16-17 she was only 15. They took her in as the younger sister that no one thought they needed so much. Although she was the youngest she was the one to keep them grounded and not get into too much trouble.

"N-no..." Emily hides behind her hands as she blushed. Suddenly Emily was being attacked by Chloe's lips on her face. "Chloe gross! Stop it!" Emily pushed the redhead away and vigorously whipped her face.

"Look at you Legacy, getting more girls than Beca-" Stacie received a punch in the arm before she could finish. Stacie slapped Beca back and they started wrestling again. This happens all the time between the two brunettes, you would expect this kind of behavior from Benji and Jesse but nope, Stacie and Beca could go at each other's throats if they wanted. Which they would never do seeing as they were best friends.

Once again Stacie came out on top. The circle cheered and clapped once more. Beca pouted as she looked up at Stacie, such a baby. "This isn't fair, I'm smaller! You're basically a fucking giant!"

"That's been your excuse for six years you dork," Jesse says.

"Wait Beca, you said you had to show us something?" Benji says tearing his eyes away from his laptop for the first time since he pulled it out.

"Uh yeah," Beca pushed Stacie off of her and stood up, she walked over to the rock that held her notebook and pen. She grabbed it and opened it, flipping through pages and skimming through various words and paragraphs.

"You write a lot.," Chloe says, her blue eyes trained on Beca's notebook.

Beca flinched and groaned "What are you? A fucking ninja?" Chloe nodded and winked. Beca rolled her eyes and continued searching for a certain page "Ah here." She passed the notebook to Chloe and she read it aloud.

"Find table space

Say your social graces

Bow your head, they're pious here

But you and I, we're pioneers

We make our own rules

Our own room, no bias here

Let 'em sell what they are sellin'

There are no buyers here

So gather all the rebels now

We'll rebel rouse and sing aloud" Chloe smiled and handed the notebook back "That's so good!" The circle, who had gathered around Chloe and Beca, and the rock, all praised Beca. Sure it was short and simple but it was amazing, Beca's writing skills will always be praised in her small group of friends. She fed off their constant support that she didn't receive from her own parents. It made her feel important and appreciated other than just another face in a crowd of people.

Beca let out a breath she didn't know she was holding and smiled genuinely back at Chloe "T-thanks..." She blushed as Chloe placed a kiss on her cheek.

"No Prob, B!" Stacie says throwing her arm over the girl's shoulder, breaking the staring contest that Beca and Chloe were having. "So when can we hear the final product?"

Beca shrugged and ran her fingers over the cover of the notebook, that was nearly close to ripping off. "I don't know, this is the only thing I could think of so far.."

"Maybe we can help!" Emily says smiling excitedly "Benji has his laptop"

"You would do that?"

"Of course," Emily bounces "I do songwriting also, a-and I could show you? So you know where- where I'm at?"

Aubrey and Chloe cooed at how cute Emily was being and Stacie patted her head. "Ah stop! I am not cute!" Emily pouted. The three girls stopped before they attacked Emily in a giant hug saying "Awe" In unison. Weirdos.

Beca chuckled and rolled her eyes before pulling out her phone. 6:49 pm "Fuck I have to go." Beca shoved her phone back in her pocket "My dad is bringing his girlfriend over and if I'm not there he will kill me."

The group of friends made their way back to the street as the sky darkened a beautiful pink/reddish color. Beca bid her friends goodbye and she made her way to her house. Thoughts ran wildly through her mind about her song and other random things. Wildly- Wild...Random things...things. Wild Things. Beca smiled as she ran up her steps to her house.

Where the wild things are...
