Brooke's POV

"Coming Dad!" I yelled down the stairs as I threw my phone in my purse, grabbed my bags and headed down to the car. I was headed off to college/university, I wanted to become a vet and my parents supported that but they insisted that I take a few years of regular college first. I was going to some place called Barden University and I was excited.

"There you are sweetie" My Dad said as he kissed my forehead, grabbed my bags and put them in the trunk. I climbed into the backseat of the car and looked at my mom who was sitting in the passenger seat." Hi Mom" I said as I grabbed my iPod out of my purse to listen to music," Hi sweetie, you ready?" she asked me as she turned to face me." Yup" I said as my Dad got into the car and we left.

The whole way there I was looking out the window and saying mental goodbyes to my house, street and friends.

When we arrived at the University there were people everywhere, they were carrying bags, boxes and almost anything you could think of. I got out of the car, grabbed my stuff and said bye to my parents, they would have stayed to help me settle in but they had stuff to do.

I was about to go find my room when a preppy blonde girl stepped right in my way and started talking to me "Hi there and welcome to Barden University, what hall?"" Umm tracker hall" I answered looking at her in an odd way." Okay so what you're going to do is go all the way….." that was all I heard from her before I zoned out while looking at a giant fair type thing going on in the giant grass area.' And here is your official BU rape whistle, don't blow it unless it's actually happening" she said with a smile on her face. I grabbed the whistle and headed off in the direction that she pointed me to hoping that I would find the right building.

When I finally found my room I walked inside to see that nobody else was in yet, sweet I can pick whatever bed I want I thought to myself as I choose the bed closest to the door.

I was unpacking my bags and making my bed when the door opened, I turned around to find girl with dark brown hair and only a few bags." Hi, I am Brooke" I said as I walked up to shake her hand." Hi, I am Beca" she said as she put down her bags and shook my hand. I finished unpacking while Beca got her side of the room ready." Want to head down to the activities fair? I asked Beca," Sure" Beca said as we left the room and headed to the fair.

When we got to the fair through the crowd of people me and Beca split directions and headed off into different directions, I was walked down a sidewalk when I found a animal studies booth so I walked over and met a girl with black hair who's name was Arianna," You like animals?" she asked me as she handed me the sign up sheet," Heck ya, love them" I answered as I took the sheet and signed it." Well bye, see you later" I grabbed a pamphlet and waved goodbye to Arianna.

I was walking down the sidewalk looked for Beca when my phone went off, It was my dad asking me how I was doing. I was about to answer the text when I heard some singing, I looked up to see a group of guys singing Whip It. I liked that song but I thought they were weird. I tried to stay away but a short guy who looked like the leader walked up to me and started talking while the other guys kept singing," Hi hot stuff what's your name?" he asked me as he took my hand and kissed it." Out of your league" I answered as I smirked and walked away.

I heard the guys say "Ohhh you just got owned Bumper",

"Did not, she was ugly anyway" Bumper replied to them before he continued singing.

His name was Bumper, weird name but oh well I said to myself as I spotted Beca. She was at a booth that said Barden Bella's," Hi Beca" I said as I walked over to her.

"Hey Brooke" she said while she was looking at a pamphlet

"What's this?" I asked her

"It's the Barden Bella's, an all girl A Capella group. Would you like to join?" the blond and red head that were standing behind the booth asked me." I don't know, I love to sing but I have HUGE stage fright, but I will think about it okay" I told them." Ok, by the way I am Chloe and this is Aubrey" they red head said as she pointed to herself then the blond." Cool" I said while Beca and I walked back to our room.

"So did you join any groups?" Beca asked me when we were back in our room eating dinner," yes, I joined an animal studies group" I told her as I took the last bite of my sandwich." Cool" Beca said as she finished her sandwich too and we went to sleep.
