Hello everyone! This is a Pitch perfect story. However, although it mostly follows the storyline of Pitch Perfect, a few things have been changed. The acapella groups are not really enemies, just rivals. There is no scary oath of any sorts. Beca and Aubrey get along, and Bumper is not such an ass. The main part of the story really focuses on Beca and Jesse's relationship, and I did not want to have any of those additional problems. Therefore, there are some of the funny parts of Pitch perfect within the story, but there are also some , basically, read the story to find out. I hope you enjoy! Thanks everyone! Reviews are awesome :D -

Beca Katherine Mitchell had always been somewhat of a unique child. Throughout her life, she went through so much that she became somewhat reserved in her ways. Her mom often described her as snarky and sarcastic. Her dad probably couldn't describe her correctly if he tried. And her step mom, well Beca was not even sure that Sheila knew her middle name. But that did not matter at all to Beca. All she needed in life was her music. And that one other little thing that made her so excited once a week.

To be honest, Beca had not always been a, well, bitch. She gained that with time. When you're four and your dad leaves your mom because she cheated... it's not really easy to handle. Her mom, Katherine, had always loved Beca. But the marriage Beca somewhat remembered witnessing had not been full of love. In fact, her mother and father, Greg, had often fought to no end. Sometimes even waking Beca up in the middle of the night. Often preventing her from ever falling back to sleep. Then, one day it had all happened.

Her dad got a new job. Everything seemed to be perfect. They lived in a big house in New York. It was great. But then, her mom was suddenly pregnant again. Something that she could not have accomplished with the help of her husband. Then, Beca remembered the next parts vividly. Her dad moved away. Far away. To Georgia. To work in some university. Her mom moved in with some guy, Tom, from their big three bedroom house to a tiny two bedroom apartment. Beca's dad called, and at first, she had been happy to talk to him. Then, things began to change. Dad found a new wife, Shiela, and that's when Beca became bitter. How could her dad have just walked out like that? Left her with her mom and Tom. She hated him for it. By the time she was eight, she barely answered his calls anymore. And when she got a cell phone, his texts were rarely noticed.

Beca's mom learned to live a new life with Tom and her new baby, Haley. Often, Beca learned to ignore their constant bickering. And honestly, she didn't mind having Haley around. But then, Tom, just like her own dad, had left. And there they were. Three girls; one woman and two little kids, all alone in a shitty New York apartment. And Beca was barely six. That was when the world really became blocked out. Beca just didn't wanna deal anymore. And, quite frankly, it was easier to just not deal.

The one person that mattered in Beca's life was Jay. And Beca was pretty sure that wasn't even his real name. From the time Beca was five, she had always been a pretty good writer. Her dad, the only thing she would ever thank him for, had gotten her a pen pal. Jay. He was perfect, or so Beca thought. They knew everything about each other. Except what they weren't allowed to tell. Beca addressed herself as Bee with him, but everything else she told him was the truth. And Beca knew deep in her heart that it was the same with Jay. She imagined his name as Jason, and she had an image of him in her mind. But, because of the 'rules' of being a pen pal, they had never been allowed to share pictures or real names.

Jay had been her only friend throughout her lifetime. Sure, she had a few girls and guys she sat with at lunch. Once, she even had a sleepover. But that was the extent of Beca's social life. She spent a lot of time with her sister. That was what she liked. They both loved music, and that was where she wanted to be. Jay and Haley were the only two people who knew anything about her. And one of them she had never even met.

Beca didn't care though. She was happy with that. Beca knew that meant she could be as invested as she wanted with no real strings attached. Plus, she planned on moving out to LA as soon as high school was done, and in January of her senior year that was fast approaching. She would miss her sister, but that was it. I mean, maybe her mom a little. But she would be on her own, and that was what she really wanted more than anything. To be in LA, making music.

"Beca!" Her fourteen-year-old sister came into the room they shared. "Letter from Jaaaaaay."

Haley held the letter in front of Beca and chuckled as Beca tried to reach for it, "Haley! Would you quit it?!"

"God. Don't be so snarky." Haley was mocking their mother and Beca couldn't help but half smile, no matter what front she wanted to put on, Haley did make her laugh.

"I'm going out." Katherine yelled from downstairs, "Money's on the table for dinner."

"K!" the two girls yelled in unison.

"Now could I please see that?" Beca pleaded.

Haley sat on the bed and handed Beca the envelope. "You're in love with him."

"Please Haley. I don't even know the kid." Beca tried to hide the blush on her face.

"Mhm." Haley smiled sneakily. "Sure. Keep telling yourself that Becs."

"Go order some pizza." Beca shot daggers at her and she laughed then left the room. Beca grabbed the folder from her bedside table. In there was almost thirteen years of the relationship she and Jay had built. Beca had them all in order, from the first letter he sent to the one she had gotten last week. She smiled at the overflowing folder and pulled out some of the older letters. Dating all the way back to 1999.

Beca smiled at those first two letters. That had been the beginning of her and Jay's 'friendship'. She giggled at all the spelling mistakes, but loved the innocence of it all. As they grew older, their letters grew longer. They talked about more of the things that bugged them, stuff they could not tell anyone else. Jay became the one confidant that Beca had. And Beca became the one confidant Jay had. It just always made Beca laugh that they didn't even know each other's real names. Beca pulled out a letter from a few years later. It had been when they started middle school.

September 3rd 2005

Hey Bee,

It is so, so, so weird being in middle school. I cannot believe that you and I are already eleven and in SIXTH grade. You know what that means? We've been best friends for six years. C'mon, that's pretty damn awesome. I mean, I must be the greatest friend you've ever had, and you aren't even positive that I look good. Which I do, so don't worry. Plenty of the girls in school get possessive over me. They all wanna be my best friend. Don't worry though, I tell 'em they don't have any chance.

School's strange now. Since my city's so big, I'm mixed with a whole bunch of new kids. It's weird. Plus, I have seven different teacher's everyday. My English teacher is some old batty woman. She screams a lot and is always foaming at the mouth. Like a fricken dog! Can you believe that? It's so strange and I can't deal with it. Honestly, I know like five kids in all my classes. And it's so weird. All I can feel is myself changing. it's like I'm getting older y'know.

Oh! Guess what? You know my oldest brother Matt, the twenty-three year old. He's getting married. I told you all about his girlfriend Estelle. My mom HATES her. And you know how cool my mom is. She says she likes you a thousand times more and she's never even met you. I mean, c'mon, isn't that crazy? But Bee, really, Estelle is SO mean to Matt. And Matt bought her this reaaaaally expensive ring. Like, so so so expensive. My mom and dad are not very happy. They keep trying talk him out of it. It'll be interesting to see if it all happens or not.

I can't wait to hear how school's going for you. Oh, and I hope you got that great music mixer thing for your birthday! I haven't talked to you in awhile so I don't know. Tell Haley I said hey. She still funny or are you two getting on each other's nerves yet? Her seventh birthday's coming up, right? I'm gonna make her a card. Hahaha. Okay Bee, I can't wait to hear from you. Love you. xxxx

Love,

Jay

Beca smiled at the memory lost in time. Jay had been the best friend she could ever ask for. He remembered everything, yet at the same time, almost knew nothing. Jay could have lived down the street and Beca would have never known. Beca pulled out another letter and looked at the date. It was the day Jay had turned sixteen. He had been so excited. She smiled again as she began to read.

May 16th 2009

Hey Beeeeee!

Guess what today is?! Your best friend in the WHOLE ENTIRE WORLD just turned sixteen. And guess what?! He fucking got his license. That is what the fuck is up. And you know what Keith and Renee got their favorite son for his sixteenth? A CAR! I have a car. Bee, I am so freaking souped. Like, you have no idea. This is the second best present they have ever gotten me. The first, being you. And you should feel pretty awesome considering I've never seen a picture of you.

Bee. I'm so happy today. The only thing that could make this day any better is if you were here to share it with me. I love you Bee. xoxo

Love,

The Birthday Boy ;D Jay

Beca laughed as she read it. The next few letters spanned over the last couple of years. Now, as she sat on her bed, in January of her senior year, she knew that they were really going to start their lives in a few months. Jay was going to college, and Beca was not. Or at least not willingly. All of a sudden, her father was trying to get her to go to that stupid school he worked at. And for some reason, she felt like they were going to force her. One year. That's what they had promised. If she hated it, she could move right after that. Now, the only letter left in front of Beca was the one she had received today. She smiled as she read it and laughed. Jay was the kid she was totally in love with. But Beca had no idea who he really even was.
