A/N: Hey people of the internet. I just wanted to say that this is my first story and I have absolutely no idea on what I'm doing. Also, this chapter is just to let everyone kinda get a sense of Beca's past and how it made her who she is today. Anyway, I hope you enjoy and feel free to leave feedback.
Beca was never someone who let people into her heart, she knew that always lead to heartbreak. After her dad left her and her mother for a another woman and her mom becoming an abusive alcoholic, Beca decided to bulid her walls up and lock her heart in a web of chains and solitude, letting no one to get close to what all she had left.
Beca has always noticed that she was different, she never really had someone to call a friend. Beca remembers her first day of Kindergarten, how everyone already made a whole lot of friends with the amount of kids she had in her class and Beca was left there all alone without a soul to even speak an single syllable to her.
Everything went down hill from there. When Beca was in the fourth grade her parents split. Her mother walked in on her father and a woman named Shelia having sex in their bed. Her mother was furious and Beca knew she felt betrayed by the man she loved, she even felt betrayed by the man she called her father.
After the divorce, her mother went down in a spiral, gaining a alcohol addiction and becoming verbally abusive towards Beca. Having to deal with the kids at school and now having to deal with her mother at home, Beca couldn't decide which was worse.
It was then when Beca was in the seventh grade when her mother started to take her anger out on Beca. She remembers when her mother would come into her room at night after she came home from work and leave bruises and cuts on Beca's young body.
Her mother would shout cruel things at Beca saying that it was her fault that her father left them. She would say these things to Beca often and Beca started to believe them.
Beca was engulfed with self hatred, she hated herself so much that she knew she didn't belong here. She wanted to end it, but for some strange reason, everytime she tried to cut it all off, she felt this weird tug at her heart telling her not to do it. For some unknown reason, Beca listened to her heart.
It was when Beca was in the eighth grade when she finally fount someone she could lean her head on. He was a new boy from some far out city in Tennessee and he was the first one to actually talk to Beca.
Jesse Swanson was his name, a boy who didn't have many friends himself but he knew how to keep a strong friendship going from the start. Jesse was what you called a movie dork, he could recite any line from any movie. He was also the one person that knew of Beca's secret passion for music and he cheered her on from the bottom up.
The first year of high-school was very eventful for Beca, it was when Jesse brought her first set of DJ equipment . Of course Beca didn't want to take the expensive gift from Jesse, she knew it was far too much. But Jesse encouraged her to go after dreams saying that " You don't know how much time you got left here, so might as well take your chance and follow your heart to achieve your dream while you still got the time." Beca agreed to take the equipment as long she could pay Jesse back, which he didn't mind at all.
Beca practiced and practiced her DJing, only getting better in the process. She soon mastered the technique and started to make her own mixes. Beca felt out of harms way when she was creating music, but there still would be late night meetings between her and her mother. Beca felt like she was unworthy of anyone's love, including Jesse's or anyone else's for that matter.
In the tenth grade, Beca developed her first crush. It was on an upperclassman named Elizabeth. They met in her AP Biology class and they were forced to become lab partners for the year. Beca was so confused on the subject of liking another person of the same sex so she didn't take any actions involving her feelings.
It was Elizabeth who made the first move on Beca. They were at Elizabeth's house working on some lab report that was due the next day and Elizabeth bought up the subject of kissing. Kissing was something that Beca had no experience in, Elizabeth must've sensed Beca's discomfort on the topic. So she asked Beca of she ever kissed anyone and before Beca could even reply, Elizabeth's lips were against hers. Beca couldn't help but noticed how soft her lips were or how her body was flooded with heat. They continued with massive waves of kissing but as soon as things were going out of hand Beca knew she had to stop.
After that night, Beca and Elizabeth formed a relationship between one and another. Beca never said anything about herself in their relationship, she kept all her information about herself locked up. Their relationship continued on for a few months but it soon ended because Elizabeth had to move to California with her grandparents. But in those few months, Beca learned so much about herself, like she definitely didn't like boys at all and that relationships were out of the question until she finds someone who was worth it.
Beca's father was never in the picture ever since he left her and her mother for Sheila. He, of course, got Beca anything she needed when she needed it the most. But Beca didn't really want a relationship with her father, not after him not being there for her during her time of need. Beca just felt like it was her against the world, well except Jesse.
The rest of high-school went by in a blur for Beca and Jesse, graduating at the top of their class and even getting a few college offers here and there. Beca didn't feel the need to go to college, she wanted to go off to L.A. and chase after her dreams. But of course something would always change her plans. The day of her graduation, her father was there saying that she would be attending Barden University in the fall.
Jesse was excited that Beca would be attending college along side him. Beca felt devastated and held back at the news from her father. After Jesse had left, Beca was in her room making a new mix when her mother, drunk out of her mind, stumpled in and started to beat Beca as hard as she could. Beca couldn't feel anything, just numbness and emptiness. It wasn't until Jesse came over the next morning finding Beca beaten on the ground. Beca remembered running down the hall in a stretcher being pulled by a dozen of people.
Beca woke up to the news that she had four broke ribs, along with a broken nose and arm. Beca's father soon came to her in the hospital demanding what happened to his daughter. Finding out the truth, he filed for a case in court, which he soon won and sent her mother straight jail on the charge of child abuse.
Beca was taken in by Jesse and his family, not wanting to live with her father. Beca went to therapy and slowly regain her strength but kept all the scars on her skin that was left from her mother. Beca and Jesse soon packed up for college, closing one door and opening another.
Beca remembers her first day at Barden University, it was the day that changed her life forever. It was the day that her eyes landed on a full head of red hair and two beautiful sparkling blue eyes.
