So, this is a little something I have been working on for quite a while and decided that, in honor of Valentine's Day, I would go ahead and publish it. Hope you all like it. All right to the song go to Emily Osment.
February 14, you say you wanna meet me
Chloe was with Beca hanging out when she got the text from her boyfriend Tom asking to meet her on Valentine's Day the next morning.
"I didn't think he wanted to do anything for Valentine's Day this year," Chloe said, looking at her phone a bit confused.
"Maybe he's finally coming around," Beca said, knowing that Tom had been kinda distant lately, and Chloe had been having a tough time with it.
"Yeah," Chloe said, smiling as she responded to the text.
They continued their hang out night, Chloe having needed a break from the stress of Aubrey. Beca was teaching Chloe about how she mixed music and a few other things.
"Well I'm gonna head out," Chloe said after a few more hours, "I've gotta go get some sleep before my date tomorrow."
"Have fun," Beca said, smiling as she watched Chloe leave.
She really hoped that the date with Tom went well. Chloe had been very stressed for the past few weeks and the Tom drama hadn't been helping.
I'm thinking chocolate and flowers
Chloe headed home, arriving to find Aubrey still up watching old Bella sets.
"Hey Chlo," the blonde said, looking away from the tape, "How was your night?"
"It was good," Chloe said, heading to her room.
She had told Aubrey she was going out with friends because the blonde did not like the little alt girl that Chloe had become such fast friends with.
"Got any plans for Valentine's day?" Aubrey asked.
"Tom asked me out to breakfast," Chloe said, smiling creeping on her lips.
Truth be told, Chloe hoped to stay with Tom and maybe even marry him.
"That's nice," Aubrey said, happy for her best friend even if she was a little sad she didn't seem to want to talk to her about it.
"I'm going to bed," Chloe said, heading into her room, "Goodnight."
We meet for breakfast. I'm feeling restless, been getting ready for hours
She had woken up at 5 am because she was so excited. She did her hair, then did it again before making sure her makeup was just perfect.
She paced around the kitchen for almost an hour. Aubrey got up and grumbled at her for being so awake, but the blonde sat with her nonetheless.
Chloe left for the diner much earlier than she had needed to, opting to walk despite the fact that it looked as if it might rain later.
Chloe arrived at the little diner just off campus before Tom and got their table. She sipped her water, fidgeting a little as she waited.
She looked up and saw Tom's car pull up outside the window.
Walk through the door go to give you a kiss But you turn your head to avoid my lips
Chloe stood up as Tom walked over to the table, grabbing the card she had written him. AS he approached, she puckered her lips and leaned into him for a kiss, slipping the letter into his hands as she did so.
However, as she made contact, she felt his rough face from the beard he had been growing out for the past few months.
"What?" Chloe said, pulling away, "I haven't eaten anything. Is something wrong?"
"Well," Tom said, looking at the card in his hands.
And who's this girl your with does that mean we're over, over
"Tom," a girl called from near the cash register, "Why did we stop here? I thought you were taking me to a hotel for Valentine's day?"
"Tom?" Chloe said, looking at him, hoping that what she was seeing and hearing had some logical explanation, "Who is that?"
"Well you see Chlo," Tom said, "That's my new girlfriend Laura."
I gave you my heart and a sweet love letter
But you gave it right back, said I like her better
That's when my whole world came crashing down
And she's walking around like the girl of your dreams
With her Angelina lips, double zero jeans
Can't believe I didn't see this coming round
She's just so beautiful, I'm just an average girl
Laura Chloe thought, I can't believe I didn't see this coming. She's so perfect. I bet she doesn't weigh more than 100 lbs. soaking wet. Why am I never good enough. I'm so fat and ugly.
He says I'm sorry
"I'm sorry Chlo," Tom said as Laura came walking over to them, "I should have told you earlier. I just haven't seen you recently, and I didn't want to do it over the phone."
"Come on Tom," Laura said, hanging on his shoulder, "Let's go."
I just keep smiling inside it feels like I'm broken I say it's ok. Happy Valentine's day. Biggest lie I've ever spoken
"It's alright," Chloe said, forcing out a smile as she looked at him confidently, "I hope you two have a good Valentine's day."
"Thanks Chloe," Tom said, wrapping an arm around Laura, "I'm sorry."
They walk out the door, and I wave goodbye Soon as They're gone I start to cry
Chloe watched the two of them walk out the door, making sure they were in the car before she allowed the tears that were in her eyes fall. She grabbed a napkin, pressing it to her eyes.
"You alright dear?" the waitress asked, coming over with the coffee Chloe had ordered.
"Yeah," Chloe said, nodding as she took the coffee, "Thanks."
"Can I get you anything else?" the waitress asked.
"I'm good," Chloe said, trying to hold back the tears and offer a smile.
Put my faith in the wrong guy, it's over, over
She thought about the last three and a half years and realized that she had wasted her life with a major loser.
I gave you my heart and a sweet love letter
But you gave it right back said I like her better
That's when my whole world came crashing down.
And she's walking around like the girl of your dreams with her Angelina lips double zero jeans
Can't believe I didn't see this coming round.
She's just so beautiful. I'm just an average girl.
Now they're gone, and I feel fatal.
Chloe sat in the diner, tears running down her face. She knew she looked like a hot mess and should leave. She tried to keep her eyes dry as she looked for the waitress to come back.
Scratched his name out on the table
This had been their place, so much so that she had scratched his name lightly in the table on her side. She took her pen out and scratched at his name as she waited for the waitress to bring her check back. Tears stung in her eyes as she thanked the waitress and headed out of the restaurant.
He's a jerk, he's a loser, he's a love abuser
She started heading home as the rain started. She was so devastated that Tom left her that she didn't even care. She knew deep down she could do better, but she hurt so much. She couldn't believe that he just left her.
February 14, I'm feeling sad and lonely
As she walked home, she felt completely alone and miserable. She watched a few couples walk into the restaurant cuddling happily under umbrellas. Chloe felt more tears welling up in her eyes as she watched everyone enjoying Valentine's day. She kept walking home, getting soaked by the rain as she did so.
Nobody here wants to hold me
She got back to the apartment she shared with Aubrey and just stood outside the door for a minute. Chloe just didn't want to face her best friend. She knew Aubrey would be there for her, but she knew the minute she told Aubrey, she was going to fall apart all over again.
I gave you my heart and a sweet love letter, buy you gave it right back, said I like her better
That's when my whole world came crashing down
And she's walking around like the girl of your dreams with her Angelina lips, double zero jeans
Can't believe I didn't see this coming round
I gave you my heart and a sweet love letter, buy you gave it right back, said I like her better
That's when my whole world came crashing down
She's just so beautiful, I'm just an average girl
Eventually, Chloe headed into the apartment.
"Hello?" Aubrey called from the kitchen, coming out of the kitchen, "What are you doing home? What happened? You're soaked. What happened?"
Chloe looked at Aubrey and tears welled up in her eyes and she just walked into Aubrey's arms, tears running down her face.
"Ok," Aubrey said, rubbing her back, ignoring the fact that Chloe was literally dripping on her, "It's ok. Come here."
Aubrey took her to the couch, holding Chloe as she sobbed. Eventually, Chloe cried herself to sleep, Aubrey running her fingers through the ginger's wet hair.
She decided to do something that she never imagined she would—she texted Beca and asked her to come over. The brunette was confused but said she would be right over when Aubrey said Chloe needed her. Aubrey told her to just come in when she got there because she didn't want to disrupt the sleeping girl on her lap.
Beca arrived about twenty minutes later and quietly let herself into the apartment.
"What happened?" she whispered, sitting down on the couch next to Aubrey, "Why is she soaked? Was she out in this weather?"
"I don't know exactly what happened," Aubrey said with a sigh, "She walked to breakfast and came home from her breakfast with Tom like this."
"I wonder what happened," Beca said, seeing how red and swollen Chloe's normally bright eyes were.
The two just sat in silence for a while until Chloe woke up.
"Hey Chlo," Aubrey said, rubbing her friend's back, "How are you feeling?"
Chloe just buried her face in Aubrey's lap.
"What happened Chlo?" Beca asked, looking at her friend, hating seeing her like this.
"Beca?" Chloe said, looking at the brunette, moving to hug her.
Beca was a little overwhelmed as the ginger flew at her, but she just wrapped her arms around the her. Once Chloe calmed down a little bit, Beca puller her away a little.
"What happened Chloe?" Beca asked as Aubrey handed her a box of tissues.
"Tom," Chloe said, tears welling up again, "He, he broke up with me and…and… he has another girlfriend."
Chloe broke down again after that both Aubrey and Beca helping to comfort her. Beca was pissed as was Aubrey, but they both knew it was more important to comfort Chloe at this point in time.
"It's alright Chloe," Aubrey said, rubbing her back as Chloe leaned into her shoulder, "It's gonna be ok."
"Yeah," Beca said, rubbing her back, "You deserve someone better than that."
The rest of the night was a challenge as Chloe continued to have breakdown after breakdown. Beca convinced Chloe to change out of her at this point damp clothes. Aubrey made some dinner around 6, but Chloe wouldn't touch it.
Eventually, Chloe said she was going to bed. They let her go, but when her sobs filled the apartment, Aubrey went into the room to comfort her.
After another hour of tears, Aubrey came out looking worn down and exhausted.
"Is she asleep?" Beca asked as the blonde came out.
"You stayed?" Aubrey asked, looking at the little alt girl, "And yeah, she finally cried herself to sleep."
"Good," Beca said with a sigh, "Of course I stayed. I actually do care about Chloe and I've never seen her like this."
"Neither have I," Aubrey said glancing at the bedroom, "This is really bad. She started dating Tom our sophomore year, and since the beginning of this year, she has talked about marrying him. I want to kill him for doing this to her."
Beca nodded in agreement as Aubrey sat down on the couch next to her.
"Do you want to stay the night?" Aubrey asked, looking at the little brunette, "She's a mess and I know she would like it if you were here."
"Are you sure?" Beca said, looking at Aubrey suspiciously.
"Yeah," Aubrey said, nodding, "As much as you make me nuts, Chloe really likes you and she's the one who needs you."
"Thanks," Beca said, smiling at Aubrey. The two of them sat on the couch for a while watching a movie.
Eventually, Aubrey headed to bed after helping Beca pull out the hide-a-bed .
