Ouch" Beca Mitchell whined as she sits up in her bed. "Oh my god what the hell did I do last night", rubbing her head she feels a large lump. She tries hard to think back to the night before but her the ache in her head intensified. She groaned thinking about the day ahead being accompanied by this headache. She then slowly hops out of bed and into the shower shortly after pressing play on her ipod dock. Beca has always loved listening to music when she showered. It always helped her have a good start to the day. She sang along, got dressed and headed into the kitchen.

"Morning Chloe" Beca says with a groan. Chloe turns around, smiling slightly though with some concern for Beca "Becs how are you feeling this morning?". "Ahhh Chlo, not great. I always tell myself I will never drink again but I always seem to go back on that promise!" She grabbed a breakfast replacement meal from the fridge and skulled it after reaching into the freezer to grab a bag of peas for the unsightly lump on her head.

"Aww Beca, I just save myself the bother. I know I could never stick by that" Chloe said throwing her head back while laughing until she sits down on the couch suddenly distracted by the TV.

Beca always thought she would one day get over her best friends weirdness. But she hasn't and suddenly accepts the fact that she never will. Its been 6 months since the World A Capella Championships. They had graduated and then moved to LA after Beca got an internship at a highly prestigious record producing company. Her old boss had lined it up for her after recognising her talent when working with her and Emily on "Flashlight" which is now topping world charts. And Chloe followed her after she had been given a job teaching Russian children to dance hip-hop. After worlds she had no idea what she was going to do, but because of her extensive knowledge on Russian literature (after the numerous times she had purposefully failed the class in college so she could remain at Barden University and perform with the Bellas) she thought to put it to good use and that she did.

Beca rested her thoughts on the Bellas, looking over at the photo on mantle of them just after they had won worlds at the after party... She missed the Bellas and thought to group message them. She took out her phone and noticed her head ache had almost diminished.

*** Dudes, what have you all got going on? Including you Emily, how are the Baby Bellas coming on?***

She thought to wait for a reply but when she looked down at the time on her phone, realised she had spent too much of the short morning thinking and would be late for work if she didn't leave soon. She sarcastically told herself how it was unlike her. She grabbed her bag after putting the peas back in the fridge and headed down to the underground car park of their building. Getting in her car, she drove to work sighing as she could still feel the faint thumping of the lump on her head. What has she hit it on anyway? She wish she had taken some panadol, this would be a long day without it.

But what she didn't know was even if she took panadol and got rid of her headache, she would still have a very, very long day.

"Ladies and gentlemen, bros and hoes, sheilas and not so sheilas..."

Beca mentally rolled her eyes at her new boss. She knew he was very well respected but she had definitely decided he was one of those people who tried really hard to be funny, but really never really succeeded.

"What are we doing here? We have so much to do, I am handing off clients to all of you who are experienced long term interns but I am also turning artists away left right and centre. I cant keep this up. This is why I have decided to give out some projects to some of the new interns under my watchful eye and I need the more experienced people to be of helping hand when you are asked okay?"

Beca suddenly sat up straighter, she was very excited to hear this news though it made her nervous. She hadn't had a project of her own and only assisted others and hung around learning as much as she could. She had met some pretty cool artists so far and was excited to know that she would have a huge hand in the upcoming project of her own.

"I will be by each of your desks this morning to give you some numbers and to set up meeting times for new artists, thanks. Get back to work"

Beca tried hard to hide her excitement as she walked to her desk. She took in a large breath and played with a ring on her finger that Chloe has given had given her after she had broken up with Jesse and threw the one he gave her away. Jesse and herself had broken up after worlds, she didn't know exactly why until she walked in on Jesse and another girl in bed when she went to give his key back. Her heart was broken but only days later, she found herself feeling much happier and less stressed without him in her life.

Her thoughts were interrupted as her boss walked in to the room that she shared with two other keen interns. He started with Bryce, the young man closest to the door, pulling a chair up to chat with him about his project.

Beca thoughts went wild when she started to think about the kind of artist she will be working with and running through the mental list of huge names she has wanted to work with since she was a young teen, even though it was unlikely for the artist to be any of them

Her boss came over and sat down at the desk with Beca. He looks at her simply and says "I've saved the best for you Reggie"

Reggie had been a nick name she had accumulated at the last recording studio that people seemed to call her in the music industry.

With that, Becas heart leaps. This could actually be someone famous, someone important.

"I think you would love her, she's done allot of similar work to you in regards to A Capella and group work, but she's ready to take it solo. She has a lovely voice and I think you two would make a great team. In fact I know you will. She is coming in this afternoon, be sure to have a read of her profile before then" with that he dropped a file on Becas desk and walked away.

Beca was so excited she could barely think, picking up the file she flipped through the file quickly but not taking anything in- she took a breath and started again.

The file read "Confidential"

And the first page read

"Luisa Kommissar"

AKA Kommissar.

Feeling stunned she looked twice an as sure enough, underneath there was a picture of the blonde German Goddess that had been her rival at the worlds.

No no no! She thought to herself. This couldn't be happening! She stood up and marched herself towards her bosses office. But she stopped herself at the door. She couldn't refuse this project as it would seem like she wasn't professional. She stomped back into the office she shares with the other interns.

"Damn it damn it" cursing under her breath. She stared at the photo, trying to scowl but she started to feel the rush of blood come to her cheeks. She was blushing. She couldn't believe what she was feeling? She told herself that it was a while ago and there was no competition and wont be as intimidated by her and she would be ready to meet with Luisa this afternoon.

She had always wondered what her actual name was, and now she knew.

With that she set of to lunch without reading the file knowing enough about the German already.

After her lunch break, Beca sat at her desk with her laptop open. She felt nervous, her belly was flip flopping all over the place. But her stomach then dropped as she heard her boss come through the door again, your appointments here, are you ready?

Beca nodded and tried to wrangle a smile to her lips but dreaded walking into the meeting room while he eyes were cast on the floor and hands in the pockets of the black jeans she was wearing.

"Luisa, this is Reggie, also known as Beca.. a talented intern we have that you will be working with" her boss introduced her obviously not knowing the two had met.

"Kliene maus, it is nice to meet your aquaintance" offering her hand. Beca took the hand and shook it, annoyed that the tall blonde had called her a little mouse again. Luisa smirked slightly and Beca blushed. "Well then..." he said slowly looking between the two and obviously confused "I will let you two become aquainted, and if you need any help just let me know" and with that he walked out of the room.

"I'm sorry, look I know this is awkward.. I will go back and ask Henry to assign you to someone else because..." "Beca" Luisa interrupted her.

Beca looked into the eyes of the blonde woman standing before her.

"I have much id like to discuss with you. While I am surprised to see you standing here, we are now in a professional position yes? And I can trust that you will not let our previous relations, how do you say? Get the better of you?" Luisa said smiling cheekily.

Beca sat down with her mouth wide open, she felt the heat rise within her body and could barely form words. She was so damn attractive. How could this be happening to her? Again?

"Uhh, the.. uh.. " Beca spluttered

"Lost for words are you?" She says as she put they finger and thumb up to Becas chin. Beca choked as she tried to swallow down whatever she was feeling.

"Now sit, I'd like to tell you about what my vision is"

Louisa chatted away and even though Beca was mostly listening, she just awed at her the whole time. Beca stared at her moving lips with blood red lipstick that looked good to kiss, wait? What? She pulled herself out of the trance she was in and tried to focus on her words.

"So I was hoping that we could move away from the harsher side of music and branch into some lighter music?" Luisa then stopped and looked at the tiny little girl marvelling in the fact that the Bella was still a mess around her.

"Now I would like to know what you think about this, I will give you a few days and come back to see you and hope you have pulled yourself together and will stop staring at my lips?" Luisa smiled and then gave her red lips a lick and winked.

She got up and left.

Beca was dumbfounded that she barely said a word the entire time. She had hoped that because they weren't rivals anymore, Luisa would have toned down the seductive insults. And she wouldn't feel so intimidated. But that wasn't so. Something tells her that this project would be harder than she thought. And not because of the strange change in her choice of music.

Beca packed up and left the studio after giving Henry her boss, the thumbs up.

She had to tell the Bellas about this. She thought she she drove home.
