"Stace, get up now were gonna be late getting Jessica. You've been moping around for two days. You won't talk to me. I have no fucking idea what's wrong with you. Can you just get up so we can go? I packed all your bags. Now move." The small brunette says trying to push the taller brunette out of her bed.
"Go without me Beca. I'm not going anymore, so go get Jessica and go." She says still not moving from her position on the bed.
"Nope Stace, not happening it's an all Bella's must come event. You are a Bella and you're coming weather you like it or not. Get your lazy ass out of bed now before I make you." Beca states in a very assertive tone.
Stacie finally decides to get up out of bed but only to go to the bathroom. She comes right back and gets into her bed again ignoring everything Beca just said to her.
"Fine, have it your way, stay here moping around all week feeling sorry for yourself. We will all have fun without you. Especially if you're gonna be like this. Honestly Stace it's like Aubrey broke your heart all over again. You've not seen her for two years; it's time to get over her." Beca walks out the room once she says this and goes into Stacie's kitchen and grabs a cup and fills it with water. She walks back in the bedroom and goes to Stacie's side and pours the water from the cup over her making her scream and jump up out of bed.
"Good you're out of bed now go get dressed were leaving in 10 minutes to get Jessica." Beca walks out the bedroom into the living room and sits on the couch waiting for Stacie to come out.
Fifteen minutes had come by Beca had been getting frustrated that the taller brunette had been taking so long to get ready.
"I'm done can we get this torture over with please." She says as she finally enters the living room.
The two girl leave and drive off to Jessica's both being silent, just listening to Beca's mixes that were being played. They pull up outside of Jessica's house waiting for her to come out so they can head to the retreat.
"What's wrong with you Stace? I know you don't wanna see Aubrey again but that doesn't explain your lazy ass staying in bed for two days." She says turning in the car to look at Stacie who was staring out the window.
"Why bother asking if you already know the answer? I don't want to see her again no. She showed up at my work the other day. I stupidly went for coffee with her, well sort of I ran out on her. It got too much for me Beca, now I don't know what to do. I just don't wanna go to this stupid retreat and be stuck with her all week." She says with slight tears coming down her face. Jessica approaches the car being bouncy and excited.
"Hey Stace, Becs." She says as she enters the car after putting her stuff in the trunk.
"Hey Jess." They both say in unison with each other.
Beca starts to drive off so they can head off to the retreat all three women not really saying much to each other. They arrive at the retreat after an hour and 30 minutes of driving from Jessica's house. Chloe sees them arrive and runs right over to them.
"Yeay you all made it. I was so worried you weren't going to come Stace. Aubrey told me what happened in the coffee shop. I'm so excited all the Bella's are now finally here. Our rooms are all ready just go to the guy at the desk give him you're last name and you'll get your room key. I'll catch up with you all later." Chloe says this to them really fast and then rushes off the second she finishes speaking being too busy to stop and talk.
"Okay what's up with her she's on a major high. They better have a bar here I need a drink. I'm gonna get my key and then find the bar. I'll see you guys later." The tall brunette says this and walks towards the desk to get her key.
"Name?" The receptionist says as he sees Stacie standing in front of him.
"Conrad" she stands there waiting impatiently as the man looks up on the computer what room she is in. He gets the key and gives it to her.
"Have a nice stay Miss Conrad" he says as she walks away from him.
Stacie finds her room and puts her stuff down on the bed. She sits down on the edge just thinking what she was going to do. A whole week with Aubrey was terrifying her. She had no idea what was planned or how much alone time Aubrey had planned for the two of them. She just wanted the week to be over. After a few minutes she decides to go explore the retreat and find some of the other Bella's who were all sitting outside on the decking area talking and drinking. Jessica spots her and waves her hand telling her to come and sit down with them.
"Hey guys, sorry I'm late to the party. Why didn't anyone come and get me? I'm never the last one at a party you all know that." She says jokingly as she approaches the table and takes a seat next to Beca. Not realising the seat she took was facing Aubrey.
"I need a drink. Oh and keep them coming all night." She says to all of the girls as a general fact.
"Someone's looking to drink away her night" Amy said a few seats down from Stacie.
"It's the only way I'm gonna cope, so gimme a drink I'm dying here." She says back to Amy being over dramatic. All the girls knowing the reason she wanted to keep drinking.
Chloe and Jessica go to get drinks for all of the girls from the bar talking as they do.
"Stacie doesn't look very good today. She was crying in the car on the way here. Do you think she'd notice if we didn't get her any alcohol and said we did? I don't think she should be drinking tonight." Jessica says referring to how Stacie has been all day.
"Jess, you can't do that it's Stacie she would know. I have a plan to fix everything with her and Aubrey though. We need to get them alone together. Eventually they will talk and they will be back together. They are both miserable without each other. I've not seen Stacie since they broke up but I can already tell she is still in love with Bree. She's just too stubborn to take her back." Chloe says as the two of them grab drinks from the bar and start heading back to the table.
"Yeah, she is still in love with her. She hasn't moved on with anyone no matter who Beca and I set her up with. She just went back to the usual Stacie having sex with whoever he hunts for. So how are we gonna get them to be alone?" Jessica says while they are walking back to their table holding drinks in her hands.
"I'll tell you later." Chloe says placing the drinks on the table In front of the girls.
Time had passed and all the girls had been drinking throughout the night most of them getting drunk. They all started to head off to their rooms one by one eventually leaving Aubrey and Stacie alone at the table.
"I'm going to go too. You wanna walk with me Stace?" Aubrey says talking to the brunette for the first time since they got there.
"Yeah" was all Stacie responded with trying to get up but not being able to stand straight Aubrey links her arm into Stacie's trying to hold her up as they start walking back into the building. Waling silently together to the rooms.
"I love you Bree." Stacie says as they stop as they approach the corner near all the rooms.
"I love you too Stace, I never stopped loving you. God you're not gonna make it down to your room. Mines just here you can stay here tonight." She says as she notices Stacie almost collapsing on the floor outside her room. She opens her door and leads Stacie into her room. Shutting the door behind them.
