Pairing: [Beca M., Chloe B.] side [Aubrey P., Jesse]
Summary: The idea of Comic-Con is to be on the side of the table without the celebrities. Unfortunately for Beca Mitchell, a hit DJ-turned-actress, Chloe Beale's boundaries were very different from those of the other 10,000 people at Comic-Con.
Inspired by my obsession with everything True Blood and Comic-Con. Really, I didn't see Anna Camp in Pitch Perfect first, nope, it was Sarah Newlin nee. Crabtree for me. But this fandom is so much nicer so… easy choice to write Pitch Perfect fanfiction. I also do have a wattpad account, and a tumblr, my tumblr is the same as my penname, but my wattpad is Rxinbxw, do check those out. Being in England, I have never been to Comic-Con, so most of this is based on pictures and how I imagine it would be.
DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN ANY TV SHOWS MENTIONED OR ANY CHARACTERS, ANY REAL-LIFE PERSONALITIES MENTIONED ALSO DO NOT BELONG TO ME.
Chloe sighed as she entered the main convention hall of the San Diego Comic-Con. Tom had ditched her in favour for some sport thing that The United States wasn't even competing in. She knew he wasn't amazingly keen on tv shows such as True Blood, Supernatural, Orphan Black or Once Upon A Time, but still, friends did things for one another. She had been to various baseball and football games, so why couldn't he come to Comic-Con for a day, it wasn't like she was expecting him to dress up or anything. It would be nice, but it wasn't necessary.
Chloe looked around, it was every fangirl or fanboy's dream. The stalls selling merchandise, cosplayers walking around and mingling with people dressed in costumes from the same show, and the timetable that showed everything wonderful happening in the day, from signings to panels and meet-n-greets, it was all here. All of the actors and actresses Chloe loved would be here, and she was going to try and get to a signing for a show she religiously watched, and the panel for another show she had discovered thanks to her friends. She was able to have one and a half minutes for a toilet break between the two events, it would be tight, but it was nothing for the mighty Chloe Beale.
She had an hour before the signing, enough time to do some merchandise shopping she thought. Chloe walked through the various stalls until her eyes landed on the ones she was looking for, True Blood and Once Upon a Time. She loved Beca Mitchell, who played Emma Swan. The brunette was two years younger than Chloe was, and it amazed Chloe how she could have made the move from the music industry to the film and TV industry, it baffled her how someone so young could be so successful.
Chloe looked through the various t-shirts and posters, finally settling with a season one cast poster and a Swan-Queen top, displaying Emma Swan and Regina Mills. Chloe paid for the latest additions to her vast collection and smiled at the third Comic-Con bag she had acquired. It was a habit of hers to post pictures of her acquisitions to her tumblr and twitter pages, both dedicated to Once Upon a Time, Beca Mitchell and True Blood. Her next stop before the Once signing, the True Blood stall, she needed the latest figurines they'd released, Tara and Sarah Newlin. The figures had always been pricey, but it was worth it. They were what had enabled her to become Truebie of the week three times. She wasn't obsessed, she was dedicated. She liked to point out that there was a difference.
The figures were easy to find, and Chloe purchased them with ease, hoping that her mom wouldn't mind the extra charges onto her credit card. She had offered to pay for Chloe to go to Comic-Con, and this was paying for Comic-Con, wasn't it?
Chloe checked the time on her phone, if she wanted to get into the True Blood panel, she needed to head towards Ballroom 20 now. Chloe quickly put her phone back in her back pocket before she walked out of the main convention hall and towards her destination. It was her goal to be able to ask a question this year. She was going to do that, she was going to be the first person to ask a question. She would not fail, especially with this being the final season of True Blood, meaning that the cast would never be at another Comic-Con, ever. The fact it was ending made Chloe feel sad, she had been watching it since it came out. She eventually reached the ballroom and joined the queue to get into the panel.
"Now it's time for the audience to ask their questions to the cast, so if you want to ask a question go and queue up."
Chloe smirked, she was first in line to ask a question. This was it, she would finally get her question answered by one of her favourite actresses on the show. If the rest of the day went to plan, it would be one of the best days in her life. Except, of course, graduating high school and college. They were good days. Now here she was, about to ask her question.
"First question please."
Chloe took the microphone from the Comic-Con volunteer and took a deep breath. "I've been trying to ask questions since the beginning of True Blood," she smiled when the cast thanked her, "but my question is for Aubrey... Will Sarah finally get her just deserves?" Chloe handed the microphone back to the volunteer and watched as Aubrey Posen pondered over her answer. Aubrey was tall and blonde, she had perfect Hollywood teeth and Chloe managed to get lost in her moss green eyes, even when they were in a TV screen.
"She definitely gets her just deserves. I wish I could say what it is, but I can't. She definitely doesn't get off lightly." Aubrey smiled.
"Yeah," The show's producer, Brian Buckner jumped in on the answer, "her boyfriend wasn't happy about it. He turned up on set with the script and was being defensive towards Sarah."
"I remember that," Deborah Ann Woll, who played Jessica, chimed in.
Brian continued, "I said to him, 'I'm not being mean to her, she deserves this. Have you seen what she did?' he was rather pissed of if I remember correctly."
Chloe smiled as she left the panel, she couldn't have asked a better question, and she couldn't have received a better answer. Just being there was an amazing experience, but to have her question answered was the icing on the cake. Now if she could just get the Once Upon A Time cast's autographs, she'd be as happy as can be.
Chloe looked at the long line of people waiting to get Once autographs. She mentally cursed, she had been two minutes in the bathroom instead of one and a half. This could have been her final chance to get an autograph and now it was ruined. She would never meet Beca Mitchell or Jesse Swanson, her life was a failure. Sure, everyone wanted to meet their favourite actresses, but Beca felt like more than that, even though she didn't know that Chloe existed. Chloe contemplated turning back around and leaving when a man stood behind her, sliding a plastic rope across, cutting her and the people ahead of her off from everyone else.
"You just got in." The man walked off and Chloe smiled gleefully, that was a close one.
She peered ahead of her, there was at least 100 people in the queue, and that meant she was likely to get the sloppiest autographs. But that was better than nothing, right?
Chloe smiled as she finally got to the front of the queue. This was it. She fiddled with the wristband on her wrist, nervously waiting for the man behind the desk to give the first cast member her poster. Why was she so nervous? After all, it wasn't like they would pay any attention to her, she was just another fan.
Chloe's nervousness rose as she neared Beca. She had been waiting for this moment since 2011, when the cast first appeared at Comic-Con. She finally reached Beca and was blown away by the brunette's natural beauty. She was gorgeous. Her chocolate brown hair was pulled back into a bun and she was wearing a Nirvana t-shirt and a denim jacket, she could only imagine what she was wearing on her bottom half. Hopefully nothing. Chloe thought as she subconsciously licked her lower lip.
"Beca Mitchell!" The crowd surged forward and past the security guards. Beca looked up just before her face was covered by a head of red hair. The crowd had gained enough force to push Chloe over the table and into Beca's lap.
Chloe looked up from Beca's lap and smiled bashfully, "sorry..."
Boom, first chapter. I don't know how long this will be, but I'll try to update over the summer since I'm now on holiday...
