Hello all, I'm new to this world of fanfiction. Don't kill me! Lol. I've read a lot of fanfiction and finally decided to give it a shot. I have a lot of ideas for this one and by the time I'm done there's going to be A LOT of chapters probably, so I hope you all stick around with me.
Pre-warning: Its going to be heart felt, emotional, sad, happy, exciting and there might be times where you might want to hurt me for messing with your emotions.
Also, I'm always looking for suggestions and even things to get better as writer so feel free to leave a review!
Last thing! This first chapter is a bit of nonsense, but I had to write it just to give background to the story, bare with me the good stuff is coming up!
"Chlo!" Aubrey yelled from the kitchen as she ravaged through the refrigerator, and cabinets looking for something to cook. Normally she and Chloe kept their humble abode of an apartment stocked with food, and assorted drinks but right now it wasn't looking so stocked. After looking through the last cabinet and finding nothing yet again, she called for Chloe again but still no sign of the perky red head. She walked into their living room to see a smiling and giggly Chloe on the phone.
Chloe looks up at her blonde best friend and quickly tried to end the phone call. "Let me call you back in like 5 minutes, k? Better yet I'll just see you later." She smiled as she whispered the last part into the phone before hanging up. "What's up, Aubs?"she questioned as she stood up and walked closer to the blonde.
"Well I was thinking about making dinner but It appears that our cabinets and refrigerator are empty." she sighed in between though she didn't really want to make dinner anyway but it wasn't like she had anything better to do. "I was going to go to the store but now I might just order something, so what do you want?"
"Oh don't worry about me, I made plans with Beca tonight."Chloe answered happily.
"O-Oh...of course. I should have known." The blonde replied with a less than pleasing tone as she walked out of the room and back into the kitchen.
Chloe noticed her best friends change of tone and followed behind her determined to kill her curiosity. "What exactly did you mean by you 'should have known'?" Aubrey simply shook her head and grabbed a glass to get some water. "Nothing's wrong Chlo." She put up a fake smile before turning her back to her as she filled up her glass.
"Aubrey, I know you well enough to know that you don't just change your tone when it's 'nothing'" she air quoted getting closer to her friend.
A long sigh escaped Aubrey's mouth after she took a sip from her glass and the put it down. "It's just you're always spending time with Beca, it's like we never hangout anymore. If we didn't live together I probably wouldn't see you ever. " she finally admitted with a shrug. This was something she had been holding in a long time. She thought eventually she would get used to it but it wasn't working out that way.
"Aw, why didn't you say something earlier? You know I'm bad at balancing friendships and relationships." She took her hands in hers, squeezing them softly offering a small smile.
"Because I know how happy she makes you and I didn't want you to sacrifice your happiness just because I'm lonely." There it was the truth behind the matter. This had nothing to do with Chloe, it all had to do with Aubrey.
Something in Chloe felt like a magnet and just flung her into Aubrey for a hug. She felt like a terrible best friend but was determined to make up for it. She was going to get Aubrey a man, or woman. "You know what I'm going to do for you right?"she raised a mischievous eyebrow.
"No, Chlo. Please, no hook ups. I'll be all right. Besides I need to focus on my studies. My father isn't paying for me find a soulmate. Or any type of mate for that matter."she slurred the words of the last phrase. Pleasing her father wasn't easy and wasting time on feelings and emotions for someone else wasn't going to help that.
"Oh, Aubrey, let me help! Besides who knows who'd be better for you other than you very own best friend!"the red head pleaded. "I'm finding someone for you whether you like it or not, and you're going to love me for it. So there!"
"I guess I really have no choice here." She sighed trying to hide the small smile. A tiny part of her was really excited to meet someone , but most of her knew that this wasn't going to be a good idea.
"You don't, and yay! This is going to be great I promise. " Chloe practically jumped into Aubrey's arms happily and hugged her. When she pulled back, she glanced at the clock instantly remembering she had plans with Beca. "But for now, if you'll excuse me, I have plans."
Just as she was about to leave the room, Aubrey stopped her for a moment. "Have fun, and don't make plans for tomorrow. We have the mini Bella's reunion, even though it hasn't been that long." Chloe just nodded her head and scurried off to go get ready. Aubrey couldn't help but be anxious for the nights where she could tell Chloe that she too had plans with her own special someone.
~The next day~
All of the Bella's were gathered around chatting and laughing as they each caught up with one another. If it hadn't been for the Bella's, most of them would have probably never met each other. Aubrey smiled as she looked around seeing almost everyone and figured it was time to let everyone start eating.
"Is everyone here?" She stood up and did a head count noticing that everyone wasn't there yet.
"No, we're still waiting on Stacie."said a voice that belonged to Cynthia-Rose. Aubrey wasn't at all surprised that she was the one to notice.
"Ugh, you would think after all the practices and rehearsals that she would know that I don't like tardiness." Aubrey went on and on for what seemed like forever until finally a tall brunette strolled into the room with two guys at both of her sides. Everyone's eyes in the room immediately went to her as she came in. Some whispered comments, but it wasn't news to them that she had a lot of male attention. Stacie smirked while she leaned up and whispered something in one of the ears of the men and immediately they turned around and left the room. "Hey ladies!"she said as she joined the rest of the group.
"Nice of you to join us. And thank you for getting rid of your...friends." Aubrey eyed the brunette for a moment and then returned her attention back to the rest of the group. "Now that we're all here, I would just like to say a few words before we eat." She cleared her throat and looked at each of them again. "This has been one of my better years at Barden and as a Bella too and that's because of you all. I know I haven't been the best to all of you but you've been the best to me and I just want to say thank you and.."she paused as she could feel tears ready to come. "And before this gets too emotional, let's eat and enjoy each other's company!"
After the somewhat emotional words given by Aubrey, the rest of the dinner went smoothly. Laughs, giggles, and smiles everywhere. Chloe stood up as if she was going to follow suit and share a few words with the group but she had a better idea in mind. "Now ladies, this was a lovely dinner but how about we head back to Aubrey and I's apartment for some drinks and karaoke?!"she jumped up excitedly as the rest of the girls nodded their heads and seemed to be interested.
"But Chloe, we don't have any drinks at our place, remember?" Aubrey tried to say discreetly to Chloe but Fat Amy was doing a bit if ear hustling.
"I'd be happy to go get some, you know , one of my boyfriends works at a store," she paused looking at Stacie as if it were some competition as to who had the best and most boy toys. "he can get us a discount as well as some stuff that may or may not be legal."
All the girls kind of blankly stared at Fat Amy unsure of if that was a good thing or bad thing but none of them said a word. "Um, ok that works, I think. I'll come with you,I need to pick up a few other things too."Chloe finally spoke. "So I guess we're done here, let's go ladies."
As all of the girls shuffled out of the room, Aubrey stood up and tried to stop them seeing that they needed to clean up the place a little but no one seemed to stop. She turned and noticed one girl still there sitting in here chair doing something on her phone, Stacie. She walked over and grabbed some of the plates that were around Stacie. "I hope that text is important because I think you missed the part where you all leave." Stacie finished up her last text before she looked up at Aubrey and finally noticed that everyone had left.
"Oh, whoops. And it was, I had to cancel my plans with those two guys I came in with earlier." Stacie said as she stood up and gathered her things and got ready to leave. "Aren't you coming?"she asked.
"Yes, eventually. I need to clean up first. Chloe was supposed to help but she's left me yet again. I guess that's becoming a thing now."the older girl simply shrugged her shoulders as she continued to clean up.
"Well let me help you. And then we'll both go."the darker haired girl offered as she too began throwing away the dirty plates and cups. Not wanting to clean in silence she decided to pry into Aubrey's words a little bit. "If you don't mind me asking, what'd you mean by Chloe leaving you becoming a thing?"
Aubrey sighed, she didn't want to talk about it but at the same time she could finally vent to someone about it. "It's just that ever since Chloe and Beca started dating, Chloe hardly spends time with me. The only reason why I see her at all is because we live together. But there's always times when Beca comes over and then it's like I'm not even there. It's not that I have anything against Beca, at least not anymore, I just wish it were different. And I don't want Chloe to think I'm not happy for her because I am, and I don't want her to feel like she has to pick between us but I just don't known what to do."
Stacie grew wide-eyed as the blonde opened up to her. She wasn't expecting this at all. "Oh I see. You're coming second to the girlfriend and you don't like that. I completely understand that, and that's probably why I don't have many girl best friends. But there's not much you can do, besides try to find someone else to hangout with. "
"I guess. Chloe's already on that, she's determined to hook me up with someone but I'm not so sure that'll go well."
Speak of the devil, Chloe quietly walked back into the room where she saw the two girls. Seeing that she hadn't been noticed by the two, she stepped back and hid by the wall listening as the two spoke. She normally wasn't an eavesdropper but when she heard her name, she was curious.
Stacie couldn't help but laugh, she didn't take Aubrey for the hook up type. "Is she really? That's hilarious." She walked over to Aubrey and put her hand on her shoulder and looked her in the eye. "But if you ever need someone to hang out with, just give me jingle. I may not be your first choice of person to hangout with but I'm not that bad either."
"Well thank you Stacie, I might just take you up on that offer. "She smiled and two girls continued to clean up.
Hearing the conversation was nearly over, Chloe had forgotten what she came back for and just decided leave again. The two girls seemed fine and she didn't want to ruin that.
