Chloe finished doing her hair and slung her purse around her shoulder. She was on her way to Baker Hall so she and Beca could go out. The redhead took out her phone and texted Beca.
'On my way'
'Okey dokey, can't wait :)'
Chloe smiled and left her dorm. It was dark outside but she knew the campus well enough to get around. She cut across the grassy area to get there faster because walking alone at night freaked her out. Chloe's heart started to race as she heard people laughing. Was she being paranoid or was it real? She took the speed of her walking up a notch, just wanting to get to Beca's dorm and be with the brunette. She kept hearing the laughter and started to hear footsteps. The redhead turned around and saw three boys running at her.

"Shit," she whispered to herself. She had really wished she hadn't gotten rid of her rape whistle as a freshman. Chloe started to run, hopefully getting away from the boys but one grabbed her arm—tight.

They started dragging her, Chloe kicking and punching at them, her calls for help going unanswered. The boys dragged her behind the science building and pushed her down. Two of the boys held her down while the other ripped off Chloe's top. Tears were rolling down the redhead's cheeks, "Stop! Stop, please!" she begged.

The boys kept laughing, like they were just having some normal fun. Chloe was scared, she was shaking as she tried to break free from the boys.

The one who ripped her shirt was now unbuttoning her jeans, sliding them roughly down her legs. Chloe clamped her eyes shut as the boy spoke, "You're not going to prefer girls after this."

Her head was pounding, she didn't know who these boys were, she was scared to death, and the constant ringing of her phone in her pocket was somehow becoming very comforting. Tears made their way out of Chloe's closed eyes, as she just tried not to focus on what was happening.

Beca paced back and forth in her dorm room, looking at the clock, 9:02. Chloe was an hour late and she hasn't answered 47 of the brunette's phone calls. Beca was so worried she thought her heart was going to explode. She just kept calling and calling, hoping the redhead would answer. Beca dialed Chloe and put the phone to her ear for the 48th time, it rang twice before it was answered.

"Beca..." Chloe had finally answered; her voice was low and shaky.

"Oh my god, Chloe! Where are you?!" Beca asked.

"Science building... Come get me... Please."

"I'll be right there," the brunette said, hanging up and rushing out of her dorm.

Beca ran to the Science building, and she was about to go inside when she heard crying. "Chloe?!"

"Beca..."

The brunette went around the side of the building and saw Chloe crawled in a ball, shaking on the ground, her clothes scattered and torn. Beca's heart immediately jumped into her throat. She kneeled down next to her and wrapped her arms around her.

"Baby, what happened?" Her voice was shaky like Chloe's was on the phone.

The redhead didn't answer, she just cried harder into Beca's arms. Beca took off her jacket and put it on Chloe, getting her jeans from the ground and putting them back on her. Beca held Chloe close as she noticed the bruises on her arms, thighs, and face. Beca grabbed her phone and called Campus Police, telling them her girlfriend had gotten raped and they needed an ambulance.

Beca helped Chloe up, and they walked to the front to the building, sitting down on the steps. They sat together, Chloe crying and Beca eventually having tears form in her own eyes.

A half an hour passed by the time Campus Police showed up with an ambulance. Beca stood enraged.

"Are you fucking kidding? It took you 30 minutes to get here after my girlfriend got raped! Look at her! She needs help! Where the fuck have you been?" the brunette yelled.

The officer ignored Beca's yelling and walked over to Chloe, "I need you to tell me what happened."

"Can you get her some medical help first, a rape kit, something? Her legs are bleeding!"

The officer sighed and nodded, holding a hand out for Chloe. Beca got in front of him and grabbed Chloe's hand herself, helping her into the ambulance. The EMT inside sat across from Beca and Chloe, and he was definitely nicer than the Campus Police officer.

"Uh... I know you probably won't want to, but I need to see you legs so..." he trailed off.

A tear fell from Chloe's face, her looking away from Beca and the man. Beca spoke up,

"Well can we stop at her dorm first so I can get her some clothes, I'm sure if she's wearing shorts it will be easier to look at her legs..."

"I can live with that, what dorm?"

"Thank you," Beca smiled, telling him the dorm.

When the man driving the ambulance stopped in front of Chloe's dorm, Beca took Chloe's keys from her purse and kissed her on the cheek. "I'll be right back, two seconds, promise."

Chloe nodded and Beca jumped out of the vehicle, running into the building. She opened the door, grabbed a long-sleeved shirt, a pair of shorts, a pair of sweatpants, and a sweater, running back outside. She gave Chloe the stack of clothing and the EMT got out of the ambulance so Chloe could change.

Once she was done, everyone sat in the seats they were in originally and they made their way to the hospital. The EMT wiped the blood from Chloe's thighs and from the cut on her arm.

"My name is Arthur by the way; can I ask your name?"

Beca looked at Chloe, awaiting her answer. The only thing she had said pretty much was "Beca" and "come get me" so she was wondering if the redhead was comfortable speaking yet.

"It's Chloe," she said just barely above a whispered.

"That's a pretty name, and what about your girlfriend here? What's hers?" Arthur asked with a smile.

"Beca," she said, this time louder, tightening her grip on Beca's hand.

"Also pretty," he smiled at Beca, then took out a small bottle of clear liquid, a pill, and bottle of water. "This is witchhazel, put it on the bruises to make them go away faster, and this... I don't know if you'll want to take it, it's Plan B."

Chloe immediately took the pill from him, swallowing it with a gulp of water. They pulled up in front of the hospital and Arthur helped Chloe and Beca out. "They'll take care of you here," he said.

Beca thanked him again, and went inside with Chloe's hand still tightly in hers. Arthur told the doctor standing there what had happened and she nodded and walked over to the girls. She had red hair, a little lighter than Chloe's, and green eyes.

"Hi, my name is Dr. Jocelynn Pierce, what's yours?" the woman asked with a small smile.

"Chloe Beale," she responded, at a normal volume.

Dr. Pierce wrote down Chloe's name on her clipboard, "Alright, if you come with me I'm going to give you a rape kit, see if the person who did this to you left a trace behind."

"People," Chloe corrected.

"What?"

"There were three of them," she said, more tears forming in her eyes.

Beca didn't think her heart could ache more. Her girlfriend was gang raped on her way to meet her. What kind of assholes would do that? And what was she that she wasn't there to protect her?

Dr. Pierce lead Chloe and Beca down the hall and into a room with a chair kind of like the one you see in the dentist's office. She asked Chloe to remove her clothing and tie on a hospital gown. After the doctors left the room, she did as she was told, sitting in the chair. The brunette leaned on the edge of the chair as the doctor returned so she could look Chloe in the eyes and block her view of the nurses and doctors at the same time.

"Don't even worry about it," Beca said as Chloe tried to look passed her.

The redhead nodded, tears forming in her eyes. "Don't cry baby, please, it's okay."

Chloe wiped her face and nodded again. Beca kept a hand in Chloe's and a hand on her cheek until they were done.

They let Chloe put her clothes back on and told her to sign some papers before she was able to leave. Once she did everything she was told, she left the hospital with Beca.

The brunette held her hand as they walked outside. Chloe seemed well collected, but Beca was still kind of antsy.

"Chlo..."

At the sound of her name, the redhead burst into tears. Beca felt the panic in her chest. She had no idea what her girlfriend had just gone through, no idea how to calm her. She did the only thing she knew to. Beca wrapped her arms around the redhead, pulling her head into her neck.

"I'm gonna call my dad to pick us up okay?" Beca said. Chloe nodded, releasing a sob as she did so.

"You want me to stay with you tonight or...?"

"Stay."

Beca nodded and called her dad. The girls sat outside the hospital, Chloe's head on Beca's shoulder, the redhead still crying.

"Chloe, you're gonna throw up. Take a deep breath."

She did as she was told through her sobs. She kept taking deep breaths until she got her breathing back under control. Beca rubbed her back until she shook her off. The girls sat there for another moment before Beca's dad pulled up in front of them. The brunette helped Chloe up and into the backseat of the car. She got in behind her and made quick eye contact with her father before he turned back around and drove away from the hospital.

Once they got to Chloe's dorm building, the girls got out of the car when Beca got called back.

"If you guys need anything, call me. Okay?" he said.

"Yeah, I will. Thanks."

"No problem, and I'll get her excused from the rest of her classes this week and maybe next week but I'll see, so don't let her worry."

"Okay, thank you."

He drove away and Chloe and Beca went inside up to Chloe's dorm room. They walked inside and Chloe was still crying but not nearly as hard as before. A few tears were falling down her cheeks. The redhead crawled into bed with her sweatpants and sweater still on, pulling her sheets up to her chin. Beca kneeled down in front of the bed and wiped the tears from her face.

"Don't cry, please. You're safe here; you have nothing to worry about anymore… I can't imagine what that must have been like for you, and I'm sorry I couldn't be there to protect you, but crying isn't going to make it go away baby. You're too beautiful to have tears all over your face. Please, take a deep breath and try to go to sleep. We can talk about it in the morning or not if you don't want to..."

Chloe nodded and wiped the rest of her tears. She took a couple of deep breaths and closed her eyes as her breaths slowed. Beca sighed and kissed Chloe on the forehead, getting into bed next to her. She laid there for a moment before the redhead grabbed her hand and pulled it against her body. Beca gave it a small squeeze and closed her eyes, trying to hold back her own tears.
