Chapter 2: Failure at the Activities Fair
Beca was riding in the taxi that had picked her up at the airport. She sighed as she watched the scenery pass by. She did not want to go to college, but her dad wanted her to, claiming it had done well for her sister and step-sister. She personally thought that this was a waste of time when she could be in LA and be a DJ and a music producer. Her father had been nothing but a disappointment for her since she was 10; she didn't see why now would be any better, or why she should give him a second chance.
'Oh well,' she thought. At least this is free, and that after the semesters over, he'll allow her to go to LA. The taxi slowed down and came to a stop. She got out of the taxi and grabbed her stuff, paid the guy and then made her way towards the dorms.
As she made her way to her dorm room, suddenly a perky blonde came up to her, cheerfully giving her a 'rape whistle' and explaining to use it 'but only when its actually happening!' Beca politely half-smiled, took the whistle and walked away, thinking "I'll never survive the semester, someone shoot me now."
As she continued to make her way up to her dorm room, she noticed a guy spot her, grin at her and serenade her entrance into college with, get this, an air guitar. Beca shook her head, thinking 'What a freak.' She made the rest of the way up to her dorm room.
There, she met a Korean girl, her roommate Kimmy Jin. Both women nodded in greetings, and separately started unpacking their stuff.
When Beca finished setting up her soundboard and mixing stuff, she turned to Kimmy Jin, and at first tried to explain to her at first, and then just gave up and outright told her to never touch her music stuff. It was like, literally her lifeline. Kimmy Jin just stared at Beca, which made her frown.
"Look, I really need you acknowledge that this happened, ok," Beca asked, but did not plead with the other woman. Beca never plead with anyone. All she got in response to her efforts were a few blinks. Beca frowned, but decided to take this as a 'yes, I acknowledge that this happened and I will never tough your music stuff.'
Beca then went to the school's radio ship and manages to secure an internship there. Expecting to play music, she is disappointed.
"No freshmen in the booth, and no sex on the desk," Luke lays down the rules. "But since you're alone-"
Suddenly a boy –no, it's the boy who serenaded with an air guitar earlier –ran in and started to explain, but was brushed off by Luke. "You're late," she frowns in either disappointment or dislike, Beca can't tell, although it's probably a mixture of both.
"Here, takes these CDs and start staking them. There's a lot more when you're done," Luke sternly looks at them, and then goes back into the booth to play more music.
Beca frowns, but gets to work, hoping that she'll eventually be allowed to do more in the area of playing music. The boy, who introduced himself as Jesse, tried to make her smile the whole friggin time. Beca internally frowned, not impressed with his antics. While he flirted, she couldn't help but think 'thank God I'm a lesbian- don't have to deal with dating weirdos like this guy'. She sighed, hoping he'd get the point, but no cigar.
Beca had never been so thankful to get away from someone, as Jesse was extremely annoying. She hurried back to her dorm room to some mixing, glad that she only had to that job three times a week. Later that night, Beca was frustrated and decides to call it a night as she didn't know what to do with her Titanium –Airplane mix.
A few days later, Beca was ready start mixing; when her father came in. "Hey Beca, you should get out and go make some friends," he started to say.
"But father, Kimmy Jin is my friend," Beca sarcastically responded. For the direction of Kimmy Jin, she heard a snort of derision. Warren Mitchell frowned at his daughter.
"Rebeca, I'm serious. Go out and make some friends and -"
"Whatever, father. Look, I need to go to the activities fair, so bye," Beca rudely interrupted and then abruptly left the room. Warren Mitchell frowned, shook his head and walked back to his office.
At the activities fair, Beca was feeling very bored as she wandered around the campus. She met a girl who had a great accent and called herself –
"I'm Fat Amy," she cheerfully says. "Oh, wow?" Beca asks confused. Fat Amy just smiled at her. Together the two of them wander around the fair. Beca noticed a sign read 'DJ' and headed over to it. Amy followed her.
Chloe Beale was feeling bored and but mostly upset when even Baloney Barb turned down joining the Barden Bellas. She scans the fair anxiously. In the distance she noticed a hot brunette with huge headphones around her neck with a fat blonde. She confusedly watches them go over the Deaf Jews booth, and smiled to herself as she watched surprise cross the brunette's face. Obviously she was expecting 'Disk Jockey' and not 'Deaf Jews'. She watched as the blonde joked with the boys, and saw the brunette walk away heading their way.
"Hey Aubrey, how about her, the brunette with the headphones?" Chloe asked her best friend. "Hmm, no, I don't think so. She looks too alternative for us," Aubrey dismisses the girl. Chloe frowns at Aubrey, but hands out the flyer to the girl anyways.
"Hey, want to join out a-cappella group?" Chloe called out to the hot brunette. The girl turned towards her, her eyebrow raised in a questioning glance. On Chloe's face was the most hopeful smile. Chloe's eyes widened as she took in the brunette's dark, stormy blue eyes.
"Oh yeah, this is like a thing," the brunette said sarcastically.
"Oh totes," Chloe said excitedly, "We sing all over the world using just our voices. We're looking for girls to help us make our dreams come true." Chloe turned on her pleading puppy dog eyes.
"Oh, sorry. A, I don't even sing, and B, that's sorta lame," the brunette said with what could be described as nothing else but a bored tone.
Chloe continued to converse with the hot brunette, before the Aubrey interrupted, "Excuse me, but have I met you before?" The brunette frowned, "Unless you're a stalker, then you and I have never met before." 'Where the hell did that come from?' Chloe wondered about her best friend's attitude to the brunette.
Chloe watches as the cute/hot but short brunette practically disses Aubrey, starting an argument between the two of them. Chloe quickly tries to defuse the situation by turning the conversation to the brunette trying out for the Bellas.
The brunette shot Chloe a look, then said, "You guys must be crazy if you think anyone would want to try out for the Bellas after what happened at the Finals last year." Chloe felt her eyebrows go up in surprise. The brunette seemed to frown at herself, before walking away. Chloe couldn't her but notice she took the flyer Chloe had shoved at her earlier. Chloe also couldn't help but notice, with disappointment, that she never got the brunette's name.
Chloe turned to see Aubrey shooting lasers out of her eyes at the brunette. Chloe tried to get her friend's mind off of last year's disaster, when she sees the fat blonde from before in front of them. She did the spiel to the interested girl who introduced herself as –
"You call yourself Fat Amy?" Aubrey asked in confusion. Chloe couldn't help but agree with Aubrey's question. The girl, Fat Amy, smiles and replied, "Yes, so twig bitches like you don't do it behind my back." Chloe exchanged looks with Aubrey, before they tried inviting the girl to come to the tryouts in a month. Tried, because Fat Amy seemed to find it vital to explain all of her credentials and even tried to show them some 'mermaid dancing'. After a few more minutes, Fat Amy left, leaving Chloe and Aubrey to try and convince others to try out for the Barden Bellas.
Three weeks later, it was 7 pm, when Warren Mitchell came into Beca's room. They chatted. Beca didn't pay attention, and she didn't care. It was aimless talking, until-
"Beca, you need to have a social life," Warren Mitchell told her. Beca rolled her eyes. "Yeah, whatever, father", she said in a bored voice.
"Beca, I'm serious," he gave her a look, and then sighed. "Look, Beca," he took a breath, "If you join a club and stay in college for a year, then I'll help pay your way in LA if she didn't want to stay in college by year's end. Ok? How does that sound?" he asked.
Beca gave him a look, "Hmm, maybe. I'll get back to you on that one." She smiled sarcastically, then waved good bye to him and turned back to her music.
Review are always welcome! If I get some, I might post before the weekend!
