Pitch Perfect one-shot: Prank night
''A lovely retreat my ass'' Fat Amy grumbled under her breath. ''I expected a foot massage and a key to the minibar, not a dodgy tent like this'' she added as they arrived at their sleeping place for the night.
''Don't moan, we all have to sleep in here'' Beca whispered to Amy, she heard pieces of what her friend said and she actually agreed. ''If anything we should blame Chlo''.
''Who's to blame for what'' Chloe's usual chirpy voice broke through Beca and Amy's silent conversation. Both girls jumped apart and looked at the redhead now standing infront of them.
''For the smell around here'' Amy made up, waving a hand infront of her face emphasising what she meant. ''We blame the animals who life here in the forest'' she pointed to Beca and then herself.
''It does smell a bit here, doesn't it'' Chloe agreed. Beca and Amy shared a quick glance both trying to hide a smile before turning back to the blonde infront of the group.
Aubrey started talking about the next two days and the normal rules around the place and from the look on all the girls faces, especially Fat Amy's they weren't at all in the mood for this.
''I thought you by now knew that I don't do any cardio'' Amy raised her hand to the tall blonde.
''Fat Amy, there are no exceptions'' Aubrey told the girl. ''You're not here to sit on your ass and have a lovely time, you're here so the bellas can find their sound again. So man up and don't whine''.
''Rude'' Fat Amy said between coughs. That was the only thing she didn't miss about Aubrey, the uptight side.
''Are there further any questions'' Aubrey turned to the other girls.
Lilly put her hand in the air and everyone's attention was turned to the raven haired girl. ''I hide ninja stars in my hair'' the girl said so soft that like always no one heard what she said. The girl looked with her eyes from side to side, which was a bit creepy, before she just sighed and shut her mouth.
Beca shook her head and turned her gaze to Aubrey again. ''How is this going to help us find our sound again'' Beca spoke up, always the one for stating what no one else really wanted to say. Especially when it comes to Aubrey.
''That's a good question Beca'' Aubrey smiled. ''You girls need to learn to get back in harmony, and what's better then a few days of teamwork'' she clapped her hands together when no one said anything more, and told the girls that they could put their luggage in the tent now.
''I love it'' Emily grinned. The girl really was too happy sometimes. While the other girls stood there with a bored and annoyed expression on their faces, Emily couldn't wipe away the smile on hers. Becoming a Bella is all she dreamed about since her mom told her about the legacy. And besides the yelling and constant bickering she really loved it more and more everyday.
''Dude, too happy'' Beca porred the girl with her elbow in her side.
Emily ignored Beca's comment and kept smiling, as she picked up her luggage and followed the other girls to the tent, most of them already inside.
''Aubrey's gonna pay'' Beca heard Amy say as she walked past her to the tent, making the alt girl laugh.
''Come on Bec'' Chloe pushed her best friend to the tent. ''Can't have them pick the best places in the tent''.
Beca rolled her eyes, but followed her friend to the tent, passing a very happy looking Aubrey.
It was now around 3.30 in the monring and all the girls were asleep, except for Fat Amy. Amy awoke a few minutes ago because of a pointy thing stabbing her in her back. She really was still not over the fact that they had to sleep in a tent and lay on the ground just like dogs. She agreed with Flo, no one willingly goes on a camping retreat. She knew that Chloe was the one bringing them here, but Aubrey was the one making her do cardio like stuff. So with that in mind she woke up the brunette beside her.
''Let me sleep'' Beca said sleepy as she turned around, away from Fat Amy. ''It's not morning, yet'' she moaned.
''Beca'' Amy shook the girls shoulder, this time making the girl open her eyes.
''Amy, what do you want.'' Beca turned around again, now facing the blonde. ''If you again need someone to sing, because you got to dump, then you have to wait a few hours'' Beca said sarcasm dripping from her voice, as she wiped the sleep out of her eyes. Amy rolled her eyes, the girl couldn't leave the sarcasm for one minute could she.
Fat Amy whispered a 'shut up' to the girl and just pointed to the tentdoor. ''Don't wake the others'' Amy whispered as she climbed out of the tent, Beca close behind her after realizing that her good friend wouldn't let her get back to sleep.
''Why are you waking me anyway'' Beca asked as they successfully made it out of the tent, without waking anyone.
''We're gonna prank Aubrey'' Amy replied, determination clear as day on her face, as she put on her shoes.
''Really'' Beca gave the blonde an unamused expression.
''Aye, no one's forcing me to do cardio like things'' Amy huffed, as she stood up from the ground. ''By the way, don't tell me that pranking Aubrey isn't on your bucketlist'' Amy raised an eyebrow to the girl.
Beca looked away for a few seconds, before sighing ''Alright I'm in''.
A smirk came onto Fat Amy's face, which made Beca second guess if it really was such a good idea to help the Australian. She knew Amy for a while now, and she should know by now that she has some crazy ideas up her sleeve when it comes to pranking. It's probably the Australian gene, Beca thought as she took her shoes from the side of the tent and sat down on the ground to put them on.
''Okay, first we need our phones'' Amy said. ''And I mean everyone's with that''.
''Wait, what'' Beca frowned, looking up to the girl. ''We can't just take their phones''.
''They can't use them anyway'' Amy shrugged, not seeing the big deal. ''Aubrey took our phones when we came here, so they won't miss them''.
''Uhmm, okay'' Beca said unsure. ''Do we need more'' the brunette asked catiously as she went back to lacing up her shoes.
''We need to get into the kitchen'' Amy replied.
''For what'' Beca stood up from the ground, wiping away the grass from her butt.
''Plastic cups'' Amy smirked.
''God, you're going overboard aren't you'' Beca put in words what she had been thinking the moment Amy mentioned pranks.
''You know me, go big or go home'' Amy said matter of fact.
''True''.
After making a stop at the kitchen for the plastic cups and the reception desk for something Amy almost forgot, they were standing infront of Aubrey's cabin. They had the luck that the dark was turning into dawn, so they didn't get lost on their way to the cabin. Not that you could really get lost here, but you never know it's still the forest.
''It's locked'' Beca said as she turned the handle of the frontdoor.
''I already thought about that'' Fat Amy said, as she pulled a bobby pin out of her hair.
''You're telling me that you can open the door with that thing'' Beca raised an eyebrow, for probably the tenth time since they arrived here. There were just a lot of things to raise an eyebrow for here. ''It's not a movie, you know that right''.
''I know'' Amy nod. ''But you don't know about the gang's I've been in back in Australia''.
Beca bit the inside of her cheek to keep from laughing, her best friend really was something else. Amy dropped to the floor to get eye level with the lock and started twisting the bobby pin in the lock. After a minute of twisting and turning the lock made a clicking sound and Beca looked up surprised. While Fat Amy gave the girl a knowing smile.
''That's pretty awesome'' Beca looked surprised. She didn't think it would work, but now she got to ask Amy about how to do that. It could come in handy sometime.
''I told you'' Amy smiled. ''Alright you ready to pull the prank of the year''.
''Hell yeah''.
The two girls walked into the cabin, making sure to be as quiet as they could. First they searched for the phones the tall blonde took from them the day before. They found them in a basket in Aubrey's office. Beca took the basket with her while Fat Amy carried the cups. They walked further into the cabin and found Aubrey's bedroom, with the girl soundly asleep in the bed.
''Aah she's much cuter when she sleeps'' Amy commented, when she saw Aubrey curled up in the bed. If you didn't know better you would think that this wasn't the same uptight, controlling and barfing girl they came to know.
''Don't wake the beast'' Beca harshly whispered, she was in on the pranking but she didn't sign up for getting caught in the act.
''I was just saying'' Amy shrugged.
''What now'' Beca asked as she waited for Amy to tell her what to do.
''Set all the alarms on the phones'' Amy answered. ''But set them all a minute apart'' a smirk forming on her lips.
''Damn, you're a bad influence'' Beca teased.
''You love me, so you put up with it'' Fat Amy teased back.
''Sadly enough, that's true'' Beca sighed. ''How late has Aubrey her alarm''.
Amy walked quietly through the darkness to the sidetable of the bed, where she saw Aubrey's phone. She unlocked the phone, in luck that the girl doesn't use a code to lock her phone, and checked the alarm time.
''Jesus, that girl really wants to kill us'' Amy muttered. ''The alarm is for 05.30 am'' she replied to Beca.
''That's early''.
''I know, right''.
''When the alarms are set, what then'' Beca asked.
''Then comes the fun part'' Amy grinned as she walked to Beca. ''We hide them''.
''You're cruel'' Beca narrowed her eyes.
''That's what I live for'' Amy winked. Beca just shook her head, a smile on her face.
''Hey, we forgot one thing though'' Beca said when she realized something.
''What''.
''How can we set the alarms when we don't know the codes to unlock them''.
''Already thought about that'' Amy replied as she took a piece of paper out of her bra, getting a weird look from Beca. ''Bra pocket, really handy'' was the only thing Amy said.
''You're weird you know that'' Beca grinned.
''I know'' Amy smiled. She heard that one many times before, she's used to it by now. ''Here are all the codes'' she gave the alt girl the piece of paper.
''Sneaky'' Beca said as she took the piece of paper from the other girl.
''Alright, I'm heading to the kitchen with these cups'' Fat Amy said as Beca began setting all the alarms.
After she had set the alarms she made her way around the room to hide them. Once in a while she took a glance to the bed to see if their prank victim was still asleep, but with luck on their side she stayed asleep. After putting the last phone between the cushions of a chair in the room Beca made her way to the kitchen. Wanting to know what Amy was doing there.
''How many of those are you gonna fill'' Beca looked amused as she walked through the kitchendoor.
''Aaah, I've got about fifty now'' Amy replied, making a quick count of the filled cups on the counter. ''So another fifty''.
''So that's why you needed so many cups'' Beca said.
''Yep'' Fat Amy nod.
''Is there something I can do'' The brunette asked.
''Start putting these in Aubrey's room'' Amy answered. ''But don't put any on her side of the bed, yet''.
''Why not''.
''Still got something left before we lock her in with water filled plastic cups'' Amy replied as she got further with filling the cups. While Beca started bringing the cups to the bedroom, leaving a space open so Amy could still reach Aubrey. After quite some trips from the kitchen to the bedroom and back they only had about twenty cups left. With that Amy took out the marker she took from the reception desk and walked up to Aubrey.
''Classic'' Beca snorted as Amy started drawing things on Aubrey's face. Amy had made sure that she didn't take the waterproof marker, but took the one that still left a mark behind on the skin, but was washable. While drawing, Amy made sure that the wet point of the marker didn't wake the girl.
''Nice work'' Beca bumped her shoulder with Fat Amy's, when the girl pulled back to admire her work.
''Thanks''.
''Lets arrange the cups and then get the hell out of here'' Beca said, when she noticed the time on the clock hanging above the bed. ''It's nearing 04.45am''.
''Wait'' Amy stopped Beca from doing the cups yet. The girl tiptoed around the cups catious not to kick the cups and opened the curtains. Beca shook her head, knowing why Amy did that as the the girl tiptoed back.
''I noticed that we can see the bedroom from our tent'' Amy explained her actions, Beca just gave a smile not even replying to that.
The girls took the last cups from the kitchen and set them around the bed, leaving a small path so they could walk out of the bedroom safely. Beca shuffeled the cups around as she walked backwards to the door. When they stood in the door of the bedroom they took a look around the room. Both could already imagine the outburst the blonde probably will have, when she woke up. Around the whole room were ten phones hidden, all set to go off a minute after the other. Then the whole ground from the door to the bed and around the bed was filled with water filled cups. And on top of that Aubrey's face was full with little weird drawings.
''Come on, don't want to get caught'' Amy pushed Beca to the frontdoor, the two quickly made their way out of the cabin and with the click of the frontdoor both girls bursted out laughing.
''Aubrey's gonna hate us'' Beca laughed.
''So worth it'' Amy put her hand up for a high-five, which Beca gave.
''It's a miracle she slept through all of that'' Beca said, they had been inside for at least half an hour, so it really was a miracle the girl slept through all of that.
''The girl is a deep sleeper'' Fat Amy told the brunette
''How do you know that'' Beca eyed the blonde.
''I once shared a room with her, remember'' Amy said, thinking back to the summer a few years ago. The Bellas were asked to perform as an openings act for a show a few hours from the college. But because they couldn't return the same day, the show had booked a hotel for them. With that came that they needed to double, and in the end Aubrey and Amy ended up together in a room. ''I literally could do what I wanted, without the girl ever waking up''.
''Ooh, I remember, now'' Beca nod.
''So it's no wonder she slept through all of that'' Amy pointed with her index finger to the cabin.
''Alright, but now lets get to the tent, see if any of the girls are awake'' Beca grabbed Amy's arm, dragging the blonde with her.
An hour later all the girls were woken up by a scream. They all quickly got out of the tent to see where the scream came from. Beca and Fat Amy being the last one leaving the tent. They already knew where that scream came from. From the tent you could see the small cabin Aubrey lived in and everyone had a good view of what was happening inside the bedroom, with the curtains being open. Both Beca and Amy had a smirk on their lips they hid with a hand infront of their mouth. The two gave each other an amused glance before turning their gaze back to the cabin.
''Isn't that Aubrey's cabin'' Chloe asked concerned.
''I think it is'' Stacie replied with a nod of her head.
''Why don't we take a look'' Emily suggested. ''See if everything's okay''.
''Yeah, good idea'' Fat Amy agreed, getting an elbow in her side from Beca. The girl turned her head to the short brunette beside her, who was only giving her a side eye. Amy just shrugged.
Chloe took the lead and made her way to the cabin, the rest of the girls following quickly. Beca and Amy didn't want to come over too obvious so they acted as if they saw the scene for the first time when they looked through the window of the bedroom. Through the window they could hear the alarm clocks go off one by one, and see a helplessly looking Aubrey search around the room to make them stop. While trying not to step on the cups filled with water. But from what they saw Aubrey was in such a frenzy that many of them were spilled over or were stepped on, anyway, making the wooden floor have spots of water everywhere.
The sliding door opened and a now angry Aubrey walked in her pjyamas outside onto the patio. All the girls turned as a group to the girl, and with one look at Aubrey they all burst out laughing. Chloe walked up to her best friend, trying to keep her laugh in, to help her. But it was hard, it was just too hilarious not to crack a laugh.
''Who the hell did this'' Aubrey said furious. If it was possible to have steam come out of your ears, Aubrey would have had that right now. That's how angry and red she looked.
The Bellas all looked at each other, but no one spoke up. Beca and Amy now knowing Aubrey's reaction to their prank, knew better then to admit they were the ones.
''Aubrey, relax'' Chloe came up beside her, with a hand rubbing her back to calm her down. But they all saw that Aubrey had a hard time controlling her anger, which made the girl gag. The Bellas looked with wide eyes to their old team leader, they all knew what probably comes next.
But instead of a barf fest, the blonde started doing breathing technics she learned to stop the gagging. And just when the girl had her gagging under her control, another alarm went off.
''How many are there'' Aubrey threw her hands in the air before getting back inside, she didn't even care for the cups of water anymore she just wanted the alarms to stop going off. And she didn't know at all how many were hidden in her room.
''I'll help Bree'' Chloe said with a small smile on her lips, she really tried not laughing but it didn't really help. The redhead went inside and helped her friend look for the phone before she would go completely crazy and broke down her own bedroom.
While Chloe was helping Aubrey, the rest of the girls turned to each other.
''The person who did this, is genius'' Cynthia Rose spoke up, as she looked around, trying to figure out who did it, though she has some idea. She knew it must've been someone from their group, because the phone that just went off, was her own.
''You got to have a crazy mind to pull this off'' Stacie raised a suggesting eyebrow towards Fat Amy.
''Why are you looking at me'' Amy said innocently, which made everyone turn to her. ''Why are you all looking at me'' she took a step back, glancing to Beca who stood arms folded beside her, waiting on how this would unpack.
''Oh come on, you're the only one I know who would pull something like that'' Cynthia smirked. ''And the smiley faces and stuff on Aubrey's face, kinda gave it away''.
''Don't give all the credit to Fat Amy'' Jessica interrupted Cynthia, as she saw the way Beca and Amy were looking at each other.
''Yeah, Beca, why are you so silent'' Ashley said, realizing where her best friend was heading with her comment.
''No, shit'' Cynthia laughed. ''You guys did this together''.
''Gotta give her payback for our freshman year, didn't we'' Beca only said.
''And no one is forcing sport activities on me'' Amy added.
''Remind me to never ever get on your bad side'' Emily shook her head, her eyes showing a tiny hint of fear for the two seniors.
''I hope for the pranker that this marker is washable'' Aubrey again stepped out of the bedroom a wet cloth in her hands now, Chloe close behind her with a dry towel. With now all the alarms turned off and no cups of water left, Aubrey finally realized that her face was drawn on with a marker.
''It's washable'' Fat Amy said, realizing only too late that with saying that she gave herself away.
''So you did this'' Aubrey turned her head so fast to Amy that it was a miracle the girl didn't pull a muscle. Aubrey walked up to the shorter girl, the rest of the girls all watching on to what will happen next. Most of them trying to hide their snickers of amusement.
With the tall blonde so close and angry infront of her, Amy was a bit intimidated. But she soon remembered that she wasn't the only one who did this, she had her best friend who she can pull into this blame thing.
''Beca helped me'' Amy said, pointing to the brunette beside her.
''Guilty'' Beca said, her hands coming up infront of her in surrender. With the way Aubrey was acting it wouldn't be long until the girl would probably really throw up. So Beca thought it was better to surrender in hope that, that didn't happen. The gagging was enough of a reaction for her.
''I should've known'' Aubrey murmered, folding her arms, making herself ready to give them an ear full. ''It wasn't funny, you know that''.
''It was funny, we all laughed'' Amy tried to save them from a speech.
''I didn't'' Aubrey pointed out. ''And because of that you two are cleaning up this mess'' the blonde gestured with her hand to her bedroom. ''I want every drop of water, dry''.
Beca wanted to protest but got cut off by Aubrey. ''And without a word''.
''I run a grown up business here, not a daycare'' Aubrey added, with a glare.
Beca and Amy muttered some incoherent things under their breath, before following the tall blonde into the cabin. This time to clean up the mess they created. From behind they heard hollers and whistles from their fellow Bellas. Which made the two smile, knowing that everyone got a laugh out of this. Well except for Aubrey.
''So worth it'' Amy smirked, bumping her fist with Beca's.
A/n: Just what I thought would be the perfect opportunity for these two to prank the hell out of Aubrey! By they way Beca and Fat Amy are my brOTP, love their scenes and moments together.
