Chapter 1: Skylar

Beca couldn't help the smile that spread across her face. In less then 2 hours she was going to see her favorite person on the planet. It had been almost a week without seeing her little man. Beca lived a pretty simple life. She worked with her best friend Jesse, lived in Atlanta, Georgia, and spent every waking moment doing everything she could to show her son, Skylar, how much she loved him. Being a single mom was hardest and most rewarding thing she's ever done. Beca got pregnant right out of high school. It definitely wasn't her plan but there hasn't been a single day she hasn't been grateful for her son. Sky was the best thing that ever happened to her and it killed her to be away from him. She had spent the last 6 days in California for business and was now sitting on a plan, anxious as ever. She had been on the plane for close to 2 hours already and had 2 more to go. She didn't really like flying but when work calls for her to travel, she'd rather fly then drive.

Beca decided the best way to keep her mind off the flight was to pull her laptop out and work on her next mix. She was doing a mix of "Never Enough" from The Greatest Showman (Skylar's favorite movie) and "Praying" by Kesha. She had to admit, she didn't like most of what Kesha did but she was drawn to that song. The DJ put her headphones over her ears and allowed herself to be taken away by the music.

Two hours later Beca was walking down to baggage claim. She rounded the corner and suddenly spotted Stacie, who was smiling at her.

"Hey Shorty!" Stacie called out.

"Hey Legs." Beca called back and pulled Stacie into a hug the second she got to the taller brunette.

"How was the trip? Did you get Khaled to calm down?" Stacie asked, knowing that Beca had gone to convince DJ Khaled not to send someone from HQ to babysit them.

"Do I ever fail?" Beca asked, with a look of cockiness on her face.

"Nicely done!" Stacie cheered. "Did you tell Jesse?"

Jesse and Beca had a contract with Khaled and opened the Studio just over 4 years ago. With Khaled's name behind it their studio had taken off. Jesse, Stacie, and Beca all went to Barden High together and were inseparable since their Freshman year. Jesse and Stacie had been there with Beca through everything. She told them she was pregnant before she even told her own parents. They were the ones that were there nine months later when Sky entered the world. They were there for everything. Skylar had never known life without his moms' best friends, and he never would. They loved Skylar like their own and that meant the world to Beca.

"Yeah, he called in to the conference meeting and helped with all the negotiations." Beca explained as she grabbed her bag. "Khaled's actually going to send us a new artist, a girl named Emily Junk. He discovered her a few months ago singing in an A Capella group. Apparently, she's really good."

"A Capella?" Stacie asked with a funny look on her face. "Do people actually do that?"

"Apparently." Beca laughs. "Hey, where's my kid?"

"Come on, let's go. He's with Jesse, so who knows what he's doing to the poor man." Stacie laughed.

Beca couldn't hold in her excitement. The second she walked through the door she heard his voice.

"MOMMM!" The smaller version of herself called, as he sprinted, full force toward his mom.

Beca bent down and braced herself to catch him. "Oof," Beca let out the second he made contact.

"You're home!" Skylar yelled, happily, into his mothers' ear. Beca laughed.

"Hey Squirt," Beca beamed at her son. Skylar was every inch his mother. Dark brown hair, stormy blue eyes, even his nose and teeth were like Beca. "Did you behave for Uncle Jesse and Aunt Stacie?"

"Yup," He replied, popping the p. Beca looked up to confirm what he said and both adults smiled and nodded.

"He was perfect," Jesse smiled. He walked over to Beca and gave her a hug. "I'm glad you're back. It wasn't the same without you."

"I'm happy to be back." Beca smiles. "Now, not that I don't love you guys but I'm going to go spend some much-needed time with my little man. What do you say bud, pizza and The Greatest Showman?"

"Yay!" Sky cheered and began to jump up and down.

"I'll take that as a yes." Beca laughed. "Come on little man. Bye guys, thank you for watch him."

"Bye guys!" Both Stacie and Jesse called after their two-favorite people.

*Next Day*

It was the last week of summer for Skylar, so they spent the day shopping for school supplies. "Hey bud, do you have the list you got in the mail from your teacher?" Beca asked as they walked through the mall.

"Yeah," Sky pulled it out and showed it to his mom

She looked down the list ad it was all pretty basic school stuff; backpack, pencils, erasers, crayons, colored pencils, notebooks, and the last thing on the list was a plastic recorder for their music class. That mad Beca smile. She knew that Sky would get a kick out of learning how to play songs on it.

"Are you excited to start First grade?" Beca asked her son as they made their way into a nearby kids store.

"Yeah, can you come with me?" Sky looked up at his mom, with his amazing blue eyes.

"Bud, you know I can't. Mom's already been in school, it's your turn." Beca tried to reassure her son. He had gone to Kindergarten last year but it was different, he wasn't there all day. "Did you know that I met Jesse and Stacie when I was in school?"

"You did?" Sky looked at his mom excitedly.

"Yup, and I know you're going to make some great friend when you go to school, too." Beca assures him. She couldn't believe how big Skylar was. Time had flown by so fast. Even though she was only 24, having a 6 year old was crazy. She felt like he was just born yesterday.

"Mom," Skylar got Beca's attention back. "Can I get a cool backpack?"

"Of course," Beca smiles back. "Let's go look at what we can find."

*First Day of School*

"Sky, I need you to stand still for 2 seconds." Beca begged. She couldn't believe she was being one of those moms that took a first day of school picture. She made a sign for him and everything… She couldn't help but think how her 16 year old self would slap her if she could see how cringy she was being.

"Do I have to?" Sky whined.

"Dude, if you stop whining, we could be done by now." Beca explains. "Okay, just like that. One. Two. Got it."

Just as she took the picture the big yellow school bus pulled up to their house. "That's your ride, kid." With that Sky began to run to the bus. "Hey!" Beca called. "No goodbye hug?!"

Sky gave her a sheepish smile, before running back. "Sorry mom."

"I love you." Beca smiled as she hugged him tight. "Have fun! I'll see at 3."

"Bye," Skylar called as he ran back to the bus. Soon Beca stood alone watching as the bus drove down the street. Suddenly she realized there was a wet streak running down her face. She quickly brushed it away. "Pull yourself together, Mitchell." She mumbled to herself as she made her way back into the house to get ready for work.

Chloe's POV

Chloe sat at her desk really excited for the first day of school. This was her second year teaching the first graders and she couldn't wait to get started. She had her whole room decorated in bright, happy colors. She had some really fun activities for the first day and couldn't wait to get to know her new kids. Slowly as time passed kids were walking into her classroom. Some had their parents with them and she greeted everyone with her usual ray of Chloe Sunshine.

Finally right at 8 the bell rang and Chloe instructed everyone to find there name and take a seat at that table.

"Hey everyone! My name is Miss Beale and I'm so excited to be your teacher this year. You can all call me Miss Beale or Miss B." Chloe beamed at all her students. They were so cute. This is going to be such a great year!
