"Chloe Beale!" Quinn said loudly stepping to the redhead, wrapping her arms around Chloe's waist effectively picking her off the ground and spinning in a circle.

Chloe squealed and wrapped her arms around Quinn's neck. After a couple rotations, Quinn returned Chloe's feet to the ground and pulled out of the hug far enough to kiss Chloe's cheek. "I have missed you."

"I've missed you too Quinn."

"You have, have you?" Quinn questioned teasingly. Chloe nodded and winked in response. It was surprisingly easy for them to fall back into their flirting routine. "I'm sure this one can handle the show by herself" Quinn nodded her head in Beca's direction. "You know, that will give us some time to catch up." She teased.

"And how would your wife feel about that?" Chloe asked with a raised eyebrow.

"She's totally okay with it. You're in my top three so she gave me a pass."

"Well in that case" Chloe teased.

Tom cleared his throat loudly announcing his presence in the room.

"You guys, this is my friend Tom Jennings" Chloe said releasing her hands from Quinn's neck to introduce her friend even though most of them had seen pictures of Tom and Chloe together and knew exactly who he was.

"So what are you doing here?" Quinn asked effectively ignoring the tall brunette man.

"I'm in New York for a little bit and Jess told me about this hot duo closing Mysteryland tonight and I couldn't pass up the chance to see them live."

Beca had busied herself in the corner of the room reviewing the playlist while her best friend Quinn and Chloe caught up but she stole glances at Chloe every few seconds.

"Sorry to break up the fun but it's time" Cynthia Rose announced.

Chloe walked over to Beca to wish her luck before she headed to the stage. "I've missed you too you know."

"Yeah" Beca whispered. "Me to Chlo. I've missed your face. It's a nice face."

Chloe blushed slightly and slid her hands into her back pockets.

"Let's go B" Quinn said loudly making her way out of the dressing room toward the stage.

"Will you be around after?" Beca asked.

"Yeah"

"Maybe we could grab something to eat or get a drink?" Beca asked. Chloe smiled brightly.

"Great. I'll let Quinn know you and the boyfriend will hang out later."

"He's not my boyfriend Becs" Chloe said placing a hand on her friends forearm.

"Does he know that?" Beca asked looking at Tom who was watching them closely.

Chloe frowned slightly not knowing what to say to Beca. She didn't want to have this conversation right at this moment as Beca was trying to leave. "We can talk about that later Beca. Okay?" Chloe asked.

"Not much to talk about Chlo" Beca said as she began to walk toward the door.

"I'll see you after." Chloe called out as her friend disappeared.

"You okay?" Jessica asked joining her friend followed closely by Ashley.

"Yeah" Chloe answered sadly. It had been two years since she and Beca had decided that they would take some time and focus on their emerging careers with the promise of revisiting them as a couple when things settled down. That hadn't happened and they had grown apart. Missed phone calls, unreturned text messages and emails, the occasional skype conversation and flings with other more convenient people had killed their friendship.

After they graduated from Barden they had decided to go to LA together. They got an apartment together while Beca tried to get into the music industry and Chloe decided to try her hand at acting and modeling. With some help from her boss at Residual Heat in Atlanta, Beca got a steady gig at an up and coming LA nightclub. She got Chloe a job there as one of the stage dancers. Chloe was quickly noticed by a talent scout and landed a couple of jobs in magazine spreads and eventually commercials. She built her portfolio and took acting classes that eventually landed her some small roles on the big screen. She was a working actress and couldn't be happier with her early success. Beca had met Quinn Richards, another house DJ at the club, and they clicked instantly. They would later realize with Chloe's help that they were musical soulmates. They were instantly drawn to each other's talent. Quinn was outgoing and more interactive with the crowd during her set and as Beca put it a 'musical genius'. Beca was in awe of the songs she was able to mix together and the way she got the crowd involved so easily. It was like the crowd had forgotten they were there to dance with their friends, partners or lovers and all of their attention was focused on Quinn. It was a different experience for Beca seeing that she could be more than just a DJ but she could be a performer. A headlining act that people would come to see spin, and not just come to hear her mixes. Quinn was immediately drawn to Beca's ability to mix and her willingness to add her own voice to the tracks to manipulate them in a certain way. Quinn's love for 90's alternative music, hip hop and top 40 hits and Beca's affinity for all genre's brought another level to each woman's mixing ability. They spent hours, days and weeks talking about nothing but music and creating new beats. After a couple of months of working with each other, the pair took a chance and formed a duo. They made some demos and landed a music contract with Capitol Records as artists and producers. Beca definitely steered the pair when working with other artists and producing new music while Quinn took the lead during their live shows.

About a year after moving to LA, Beca and Chloe were both working their way up in their respective businesses and they had grown even closer than they had in college. Everything changed immediately the night that Beca came home from the club to find Chloe sleeping on the couch with a script resting on her stomach. She had walked over to the sleeping redhead with the intention of waking her up and helping her to bed. She sat down on the couch next Chloe and took a couple of minutes to admire her best friend's obvious beauty. Chloe awoke with the feeling of eyes on her. She smiled softly seeing Beca looking at her with something more than friendship in her eyes. Beca returned the smile easily. This was the moment that both of them had been waiting for but were too afraid to confront. Maybe that night it was the late hour or Chloe's sleepiness or the buzzed feeling Beca had from her shots of tequila, who knows but neither girl was running from it anymore. Chloe pushed herself up to support her upper body with her elbows and Beca leaned down slowly. Once their lips met they knew it was what each had been wanting. They fit perfectly together as friends and as lovers. They were finally together and had the support of their friends and family and they were each achieving their professional dreams.

Their first year together as a couple passed quickly. Not much changed between the two with the exception of the amazing, slightly adventurous sex they now shared. They were best friends, loved each other unconditionally and supported each other's career. Beca and Quinn began touring small venues and making the festival circuit after settling on the stage name of Vision. They both wanted to take their music in a different direction and be something unique, so the name seemed to fit for the pair. This pulled Beca from Chloe more often than not and as the universe saw fit when Beca was able to be in town, Chloe would be booked on a job that left her with little to no free time. They still tried to make as much time for each other as they could and they consciously made the decision to surround themselves with the people they trusted most in the world, the Bella's.

Jessica's entertainment business degree came in handy when Chloe ran into her one afternoon in LA at a coffee shop. The two old friends spent a few hours catching up with each other and they had decided almost instantly that Jessica would become Chloe's manager. Chloe hated the negotiating part of Hollywood and was more than happy to have Jessica acting on her behalf. Jessica quickly noticed that Chloe's agents weren't working as hard as they should be, in Jessica's opinion, to book Chloe jobs so she made the suggestion to hire Stacie as her new agent. It was a no brainer to Chloe and she became one of Stacie's first clients. The second became Vision. Stacie's law degree and passion for everything entertainment lead her to grow her business quickly. She hired Fat Amy as one of her agents while Amy worked on completing her Law degree. Amy's eye for talent and outgoing nature made them the talk of the town in Hollywood and many new up and coming stars and acts sought after their representation.

While on the road, Beca and Quinn both realized that they needed some help. With developing new music, playing shows almost every night and traveling to different cities each day they knew they wouldn't be able to keep this up much longer. After a night on the phone and some much needed advice and suggestions from Chloe, Beca spoke to Quinn and they decided to call and speak with Stacie. She had some ideas for them and soon after Ashley was acting as the group's manager to help in negotiating with the Studio and fellow artists and Cynthia Rose was their road manager putting together everything necessary for their tours and shows.

Everything was falling into place. They were surrounded by their closest friends, they were both up and coming people to watch in their respective industries, money was rolling in, they were nominated for a couple of awards and it should have been the best time of their life. In most ways it was but the success and the drive to be more professionally was tearing their relationship apart at the seams and again one night changed everything.
