A/N: So I have a love for classics and I love Can't Buy Me Love from the 80s. I was watching it the other day and decided in the famous words of Beca Mitchell "Let's remix this business". Sooo for anyone who also knows and loves the movie there are bits that follow but more that don't...soooooo without further waiting...

Can't Buy Me Love!

Beca scrolled through her phone looking for one of her mixes to listen to while sitting at a table in a semi secluded area outside on the quad while everyone else ate their lunches and conversed. Her scrolling came to a halt as someone slid in next to her at the table she was sitting at. She didn't need to look up to know that her best friend Jesse sitting next to her. She stopped her music and took her headphones from over her ears to let them hang from her neck.

Jesse has been her best friend since preschool and was alright being an outcast to their school with her. The two were nobodies at their school. As their classmates all found their niches in the cast system of popularity in high school, Beca and Jesse had their own. Beca's passion being music and creating mixes, while Jesse's was also music, but more of knowing the vast knowledge of cutting and scoring movies.

It was the first day of their senior year and just like the previous three years of high school the duo was already unnoticed by everyone. For as long as Beca and Jesse have been friends this has never been an issue for them, except this being their senior year it seemed looking back that they wanted to try and have some amazing memories to look back on. Like the fact that any sporting event they have ever attending, as hard as it is to believe they even went, they spent the games in the visitor's section.

"How were your morning classes?" Jesse asked as he pulled out his sack lunch and reached into the paper bag for his peanut butter and jelly sandwich. He handed half to Beca as he started to nibble off the other.

Beca sighed holding the sandwich up in front of her as if trying to figure out which side to take a bite from before answering. "You know, same old same old bullshit."

Jesse chuckled a little bit took a drink of milk and then turned to look at Beca. "Any of those classes have a certain redhead in them?" His eyebrows shooting up in amusement as Beca scowled and nodded.

She still regretted ever telling Jesse about her crush. Beca didn't regret the fact he knew she was out, but she regretted the fact he got out of her who she had feelings for. Not that he couldn't have ever guessed it since Jesse had caught Beca staring in a trans at times at her ginger crush. He had even found when shuffling through Beca's playlists on her phone that she had an playlist even named red and blue, which was super weird to him since all the other playlists were classified by dates. When he had asked her about that particular playlist though she freaked out on him and didn't talk to him for about a week because she had accused him of snooping. After a week though she caved to talk to him again because life and school without him were super lonely.

Beca's eyes lifted up and looked across the cafeteria to look to the table where her biggest inspiration and crush was seated. The redhead who was constantly on her mind but she had no chance of ever dating let alone talking to. Chloe Beale was her name and she was everything that a high school girl ultimately could be. She was the most popular girl in school the co-captain to the cheerleading squad as well as the schools acapella club. Not to mention she was probably one of the most genuine and nicest people that Beca has ever met in her life. Not that Beca has ever talked to her, nor has she even been within 10 feet of the girl. Even in classes they had together Beca always sat in the farthest away possible seat just because Chloe always seemed to be surrounded by so many people.

Chloe was also dating Tom Walker who had been the ultimate athlete star of Barden High. He had graduated the previous year and went on to accept a full ride scholarship to an stuffy preppy college. Well that's what Beca tried to tell herself anyways since about 5 different colleges were begging for Tom to attend there. Even now his first year at his University he was making the news as a star athlete, which made Chloe even more popular at the school since she was dating a nationally known star athlete. Beca scoffed in her mind knowing she would never be able to compete with someone like Tom, especially since as far as Beca knew Chloe was straight, but it didn't mean she couldn't have a crush or admire the girl from afar.

She was brought out of her thought clouds be a gentle nudge from Jessie. Oh right, Jesse, what did he ask her again? Oh right, classes.

"Yeah, somehow fate has decided to sync our schedules perfectly," Beca sighed. She'd much rather not have class with the girl, only because all she had to listen to this morning was the hundreds of questions being asked to Chloe about Tom and how wonderful and amazing the jockstrap was.

Jesse laughed though at his friends grumpy huff of a reply. "Ah Beca, don't even pretend like you don't like it." Beca shot him a glare which he just shrugged at and he turned to look over at the popular kids.

"You know," His voice breaking the short silence, "maybe this year we should actually try?" His voice raising in a question at the end.

"Try what?" Beca scoffed clearly knowing where Jesse was going with this. "Try to fit in with a bunch of students who clearly don't acknowledge that we even exist? Sorry Jess, but I'd rather just stick to my mixes."

Jesse sighed, "Beca, I don't want to look back on High School and wonder what if…" His voice soft. "I want to know what it's like to take a chance like Julia Roberts in Pretty woman."

"Are you saying we should become prostitutes?" Beca laughed somehow knowing the movie reference even though she thought they were predictable and pointless.

"No," Jesse chuckled a little bit, "I'm not saying that I was kind of seeing if you'd know the movie, but what I mean besides that is that she took a chance in that movie to try and become someone who she wasn't to try and fit in with a different class. She was given a chance and she took it. All I'm saying is…" He paused looked over to Beca then back to the popular kids. "If we're given a chance to this year we should take it!"

Beca didn't agree nor did she exactly bite down the idea either. There have been so many years that she wondered if she would ever get noticed or have a chance to fit in. She had never really tried before and nor did it ever matter to her prior to fit in, but something about Jesse's words about not wanting to live with regrets and asking what if really resonated with her like a sick base beat.

Jesse cleared his throat ready to change the subject to a lighter topic. "Soooo," his voice drawing out the o's in an excited manner. "How close are you to being able to buy your new mixing board?"

Beca's posture relaxed and a genuine smile started to grow before she realized it and turned it into a smirk. "Just about there, I just have like $50 more dollars to go and it's mine!" Her lighter and happier compared to her usual sarcasm.

"Awesome!" Jesse's voice enthusiastic. "How many more lawns do you have to mow and bushes do you have to trim up?"

Even though Beca worked at a radio station she was paid next to nothing and for the aspiring DJ and producer having a new mixing board was a must. She has been saving since last spring and was able to mow different neighbors lawns and do some lawn care also to save up, since her dad wasn't willing to indulge her silly hobby as he liked to put it. Beca wasn't one for doing much physical labor, but she was determined to get the newest mixing board because she knew she would be able to do that much more for her mixes and music once she had it and the software program that came along with it.

"I have just like one or two to do after school today to do to reach my goal! So I might need a ride tomorrow after school to go buy it."

"Oh for sure dude!" Jesse said zipping up his backpack as lunch was just about over. When he finished he set his backpack on his lap and turned to Beca, "So has it been weird having to take care of Chloe's lawn all summer and never once talking to her? I still don't see how that's even possible, I mean the girl is so friendly!"

Beca rolled her eyes at her friend before answering. "Well it's easy when said person is gone for most of the summer to camp, which in a way I'm grateful for."

Jesse quirked a brow in question at his friend. So Beca continued.

"No weirdness then for me and plus her parents were working, so I was able to get a lot of work done faster." Beca tried explaining.

"Oh you mean, you wouldn't get caught staring at Chloe if she was out tanning in her bathing suit?" Jesse teased earning him a punch to the shoulder from Beca as she got up from their table to head back into the building since the bell had just rung. Beca's shoulders slumped a little, back to class it was.

"So Chloe, what are you going to wear to Bumper's back to school party tonight?" Stacie asked as she plopped down onto Chloe's bed sprawling her long toned limbs in every direction.

Chloe gave a sigh, "I don't know, nothing seems to catch my attention." She was standing in her walk-in closet pushing hangers out of the way to look at the next outfit.

"Still haven't heard from Tom?" Aubrey bluntly asked taking a poised seated position on Chloe's bed next to Stacie.

Chloe popped her head out of her closet with a frown. "No, I mean he's been really distant lately and I think it's mostly just from all the training camp hours he has had to put in."

"Or all the girls he's been putting it in," Stacie mumbled softly but not quite softly enough to earn a smack from Aubrey and a glare.

Luckily Chloe hadn't heard her and was already back in her closet onto the next rack of clothes. All of a sudden her head popped out again and she had a worried look on her face.

"Oh my Gosh guys! Her voice shrill, what time is it?!" Chloe darted out of the closet and over to her tv grabbing the remote and heading over to sit on her bed next to Stacie and Aubrey. "I completely forgot that ESPN was doing an interview with Tom today at 4:30! Fat Amy Just texted me! Channel 5!"

Aubrey looked over to the clock to see it was 4:31.

Chloe fumbled through stations but finally found the ESPN station and there on her TV screen was her boyfriend smiling into camera next to a news anchor.

Stacie groans, "Ughhh Chloe, you're soo lucky! Does he buy you tons of stuff with all the money he's making?"

"Shhh! He's on He's ON!" Chloe squealed in excitement.

"So Tom, I we have covered almost everything in this interview, but I have one last question for you," The news anchor paused to see Tom give a small nod, "which is living somewhere new, what is the one special thing that you miss about the old home town?"

"O. . GEEEEE! He's going to say you're name on national tv CHLOE!" Aubrey screeched excitedly next to a bouncing Chloe.

"Do you mind if I get a little personal?" Tom started and the girls squealed. "What I really miss the most always made me feel soooo good after all of my games" Even bigger squeals erupted. "Is that old hydromassage machine we had in the school gym."

"Are you fucking kidding me?" Stacie and Aubrey screeched while Chloe looked down her heart shattering just a little bit.

"Well Tom, I bet the old school misses you too! Thank you for your time today Tom and good luck with your season." The anchor turns towards the camera. "Back to you in the studio"

Aubrey grabbed the remote from Chloe and immediately turned off the TV and turned to Chloe in comfort. "Aww Chloe."

Chloe quickly shook it off and put a smile on her face that didn't quite meet her eyes. "Don't worry guys! It's not like a felony to not mention your girlfriend!" She shrugged. "Really it's no big deal." She tried to persuade the duo that was giving her odd looks.

Chloe jumped up from her bed and headed back to her closet too look for something to wear again. "Now come on and help me figure out what I should wear tonight!"

A sudden knock at the door stopped all three girls in Chloe's closet on their mission to find Chloe something to wear for the party. Chloe's mom stuck her head into the room with a smile stretching across her face. Chloe was like a younger version of her mom in physical appearance from the red curls to the blue eyes although Chloe's seemed to be a little bit bigger and brighter and held just a little more life and light in them.

"Hey Girls!" Her mom's cheery voice breaking a silence.

"Oh hey Ms. Beale!" Aubrey and Stacie answered.

Ms. Beale pushed open the bedroom door and leaned against the door frame crossing her arms across her chest.

"Need something mom?" Chloe asked smiling at her mom.

Chloe's mom chuckled a little before answering, "I just want to remind you that I'm going on a dinner date this evening."

"Oh yeah! Get it Ms. Beale!" Stacie said giving Chloe's mom a wink.

Chloe's mom chuckled a little bit while Aubrey gave her an elbow and a disapproving look. Chloe meanwhile whispered a gross to Stacie's remark then looked over to her mom.

"Yeah, I remember." Chloe assured her mom also giving a little nod.

"Ok good! Also, the girl who has been doing lawn care for us all summer is going to be stopping by this evening to finish up trimming the grass and some hedges." Chloe gave her mom an inquisitive look as if asking how this was her issue. "I'm going to need to you to give her, the money I'll be leaving for her when she's done."

Chloe nodded "Sure, but hopefully it isn't too late…" She gives a pause as her mom gives her a look. "Bumper's having a back to school party…and I was going to stop by to make an appearance."

Chloe's mom smiled and nodded. "Don't worry she never really stays too late. You might know her, since you go to school together. Rebecca Mitchell?"

All three girls cocked their heads to the side and then looked at each other trying to figure out if any of them had heard of her before. They looked back to Chloe's mom all with confused faces.

Chloe's mom just smiled at them then pushed off the door frame. "Well I'm going to go start getting ready for my date! You girls have fun tonight!" She turned and started to head to her own room. "And Chloe, curfew is 11 since it's a school night."

Chloe shook her head with a smile before answering with a "Yes Mom."

Stacie and Aubrey both hollered out a "See you later Ms Beale! Good luck with your date!"

"Thanks Girls!" Ms. Beale sang out.

"I still can't believe how much of a MILF your mom is!" Stacie gushed turning to Chloe.

Chloe shrugged, "It's the Yoga-laties." She turned back to the rack and pulled hangers across the rod with a frown. "Guys, I'm never going to find anything to wear tonight."

"What about this?" Aubrey pulled out a conservative blue dress.

Stacie rolled her eyes, "Yeah only if she was going to church maybe." Aubrey frowned and put the dress back while Chloe laughed.

"What about this combo?" Stacie said holding up low cut blouse and short skirt.

Aubrey huffed out, "Yeah and that if she wants to get some dollars tucked into her panties."

Chloe laughed at the two, "Come on you two, this is serious."

She pulled a few hangers until she found a top she had bought a week ago. "What about this?" She pulled it off rod and held it up for the duo to see. The two tilted their heads a little bit. Chloe turned and pulled a black skirt and held it underneath. Stacie and Aubrey both smiled and nodded in approval.

A/N: Starting with T...buuuuut will probably go to M if enough people want the details later.
