Chapter 4 - "Ordinary" Girl
Beca sat on the couch in the living room as Chloe paced back and forth, biting her nail, thinking about how she'd tell Aubrey that a stranger showed up in their house, naked and didn't seem to have a clue how anything worked apparently.
Beca was watching Chloe intently as the redhead paced before her, mumbling to herself.
"Are there more humans?" Beca asked.
"There are more people, yes," Chloe said. "Do you know how to sing?"
"Sing?" Beca narrowed her eyes.
"You know, like," Chloe sang some notes before looking back at Beca.
"That was very pleasant!" Beca said.
"Thanks, can you do that?" Chloe asked.
Beca opened her mouth but Chloe heard that horrible noise again and she groaned, covering her ears.
"I don't know how you do that, but that hurts, please stop," Chloe said.
Chloe heard footsteps behind the door before Beca could answer her, and Aubrey, Cynthia Rose, Stacie, Jessica and Ashley came in. They all stopped and stared at the person sitting on their couch.
"Chloe, who's this?" Aubrey asked.
"This is Beca.. what's your last name?" Chloe asked Beca.
"Mitchell," Beca said and smiled proudly.
"Beca Mitchell, she's a fellow student who wants to be a Bella," Chloe said.
"Why is she wearing your clothes?" Stacie asked, confused.
"She showed up in our basement naked, I had to give her something to wear," Chloe said.
Stacie gave Beca a weird look.
"So you want to be a Bella?" Aubrey asked. "Were you already initiating yourself before you made it in?"
Beca looked confused for a moment before she laughed.
"Yes," she said.
"You're in luck because we do need another member, but you're gonna have to sing for us," Aubrey said.
Jessica closed the door and the girls piled up in the living room.
"Beca, do you know Titanium?" Chloe asked.
Beca grinned widely.
"Of course I know Titanium! It's an element! Symbol Ti, atomic number 22!" Beca said.
"No.." Chloe said, laughing as the girl exchanged weird looks. "The song."
Beca stared at Chloe for a good two minutes.
"Oh the song!" she said. "David Guetta featuring Sia?"
"Yes, that's the song!" Chloe said. "Can you sing that for us?"
Beca looked up at the ceiling, concentrated before she started singing.
Chloe was very surprised, her voice was amazing! It had an amazing ring to it, it felt like it tickled her ears. The redhead smiled widely before she looked back at Stacie, who was smiling as well.
"That was perfect!" Aubrey interrupted Beca. "You can definitely be a Bella!"
"Congratulations!" Chloe squeaked and moved to hug Beca, but the girl went stiff as a board.
"What is that?" Beca asked, alarmed.
"That's a hug," Chloe frowned.
"Oh.. a hug! It feels weird," Beca said.
Chloe giggled.
"Congratulations, Beca," Aubrey said. "You can sleep with Amy."
"Who's Amy?" Beca frowned.
"Oh she's this Australian blonde who sometimes annoys the shit out of us," Stacie said.
"Can't I stay with Chloe?" Beca asked.
"Sorry, Chloe sleeps with me," Aubrey said.
Beca looked disappointed and lost, like a puppy. Chloe giggled.
"Don't worry Beca, you're gonna see me all the time," Chloe said.
"Okay," Beca said. "But I can't stay with this Amy until she promises not to hurt me."
Beca looked scared, but only Chloe seemed to notice that. Aubrey and Stacie scoffed.
"Yeah, she can promise that but she'll end up accidentally hurting you somehow," Stacie said. "That's how Amy works."
"But.. she won't call the police right?" Beca asked.
"No," Stacie said with a confused look.
Beca looked relieved.
"Come on, I'm gonna make something to eat, I'm starving!" Stacie said, going to the kitchen.
"Oh, whatever you're having, I'll have some too!" Chloe said.
"I'm gonna make some omelet," Stacie said.
"Can I make it?" Beca asked.
The girls were all surprised, but Stacie allowed. She handed Beca the eggs and the frying pan before turning on the stove.
Chloe watched from far away as Beca placed the eggs lined up on the frying pan. Stacie had the most hilarious confused look. She was about to ask what the hell Beca was doing when the eggs exploded.
Stacie and Chloe gasped. Beca seemed to be very confused. She looked at Stacie before looking at Chloe, she frowned when none of them had smiles on their faces.
"What happened?" Beca asked, confused.
"You blew up the eggs," Stacie said.
"Beca, have you ever cooked?" Chloe asked.
"No," Beca said. "I just thought I'd try."
"Well maybe someone should teach you before you start cooking on your own, okay?" Stacie asked.
"Okay," Beca said.
"Now you need to clean the kitchen, including the ceiling," Stacie said.
"Stacie," Chloe said.
"What? She exploded the eggs!" Stacie said.
"It's her first day, I'll clean it," Chloe said.
Stacie rolled her eyes.
Beca left the kitchen and sat down next to Chloe on the couch, but the redhead got up to clean the kitchen and the brunette looked disappointed again.
oO0Oo
The next morning, the Bellas had rehearsal at 8 AM, since it was a Saturday. Chloe woke up, got dressed and went to check on Beca, the brunette seemed to be a strange one. When she saw Beca, she was already sitting on her bed, dressed in the clothes Chloe let her borrow, and looking around. When she saw Chloe, she smiled.
"Hey!" she said.
"Hi, you're ready! Wow!" Chloe said. "Wanna come have breakfast?"
"Okay," Beca said, following Chloe out of the room.
The girls were all sitting at the table, Stacie had made French toast, scrambled eggs and bacon. They had orange juice and coffee. Aubrey was having orange juice for a change, she almost always had coffee in the morning.
"Good morning," Aubrey said when she spotted Beca and Chloe.
"Morning, Bree," Chloe smiled and sat beside her best friend.
Beca sat between Cynthia Rose and Jessica. She stared at her plate with a weird look, confused. She stared at the girls eating. She watched them intently before she grabbed some eggs and bacon with her hands.
"Beca?" Aubrey asked.
Beca looked up at Aubrey and the blonde raised her fork and knife. The brunette looked down at the table and saw she had a fork and a knife too. She grabbed them and looked up at Aubrey, who showed her how to cut the bacon and the egg and put them on the fork.
Beca carefully did the same and brought the fork slowly up to her mouth. She chewed on the eggs and bacon slowly. Her eyes widened. She looked at the girls with a smile before she swallowed.
"So this is how it feels to eat?" she asked. "It's so good!"
The girls all frowned at her.
"You've never eaten before?" Stacie asked.
Beca looked lost again.
"I have⦠because I'm an ordinary girl," she said. "Just not.. food.. this good.."
Stacie smiled.
"Well thanks, Beca," she said.
"Stacie's food is delicious, maybe you should let her teach you to cook," Chloe said.
"Can you, human Stacie?" Beca asked with a small smile.
Stacie chuckled.
"Sure," she said.
Beca smiled widely.
"Thank you, human Stacie!" she said.
The girls continued eating in silence, giggling at the pleased noises Beca was making as she enjoyed the food. She ate a lot, more than the girls thought she could handle. Stacie was so happy, she loved that Beca loved her food.
When the girls started leaving and clearing the table, Beca frowned in confusion.
"Whoa, what are you doing?" she asked. "I thought we were eating!"
"No, we're finished," Stacie said.
"We have Bellas rehearsals now," Aubrey said.
"And can I come with?" Beca asked.
"You must, you're a Bella now," Aubrey said.
"Oh! Cool! Thank you, human Aubrey!" Beca said.
Aubrey chuckled weirdly, putting her plate on the dishwasher.
Beca also grabbed her plate and put it in the dishwasher. She watched the girls grab their bags and she didn't have one so she followed them out the door.
"You know, you have to move your stuff in," Fat Amy said to Beca while they walked to the gym. "I cleared some closet space for you."
"Move my stuff in?" Beca narrowed her eyes carefully.
"Yeah, your clothes, your electronics, your stuff," Fat Amy asked. "You left that in your old dorm, right?"
"Yes," Beca said. "I will move my stuff in this afternoon."
"Great," Fat Amy said. "Good to be your roommate."
Beca smiled.
The girls all went inside the gym, leaving Beca last. She looked around and smiled. It was dark, the chairs were black in that small auditorium and there was a white board down in the middle along with 8 chairs lined up in two rows.
"Alright girls, let's get started! Please take your seats!" Aubrey said.
Beca immediately grabbed one of the chairs and held it, watching the other girls, but to her surprise, they all sat down and gave her weird looks.
"Beca, sit down," Aubrey said.
Beca put the chair where it was and sat down, turning to Aubrey.
"Since we have Beca to add to the choreography now, we must work harder," Aubrey said. "Let's start by cardio while Chloe and I change things a bit to add Beca."
The girls all got up and started running laps. Beca got up and watched them, confused.
"Beca?" Aubrey asked, making the girl turn to her. "Go, you too."
Beca followed the girls and began running. She frowned when she saw Stacie running with her hands on her boobs, holding them. She watched but the none of others were doing that so she didn't do it.
After running 10 laps, the girls made it back to Aubrey and Chloe and they began. Chloe was sent to teach Beca while Aubrey helped the others.
Beca looked more lost than ever but she repeated the movements Chloe was showing her and she looked happy when Chloe smiled at her.
"You're a very fast learner, Beca!" Chloe said. "Arlight, from the top. 1, 2, 3, 4."
Chloe sang and did the steps, watching as Beca repeated. She smiled when she was done.
"Nice!" she said.
"Are you gonna sing that song?" Beca asked.
"Yeah, why?" Chloe asked.
"That's boring," Beca said simply.
"Well, you can ask Aubrey about changing but I doubt she'll hear you," Chloe said with a chuckle.
"Why not, she has ears," Beca said. She didn't even give Chloe a chance to reply before she walked over to Aubrey. "Human Aubrey, can we please change the song?"
Aubrey frowned and crossed her arms.
"Why?"
"Because that song is boring and too old," Beca said simply.
Aubrey and the girls gasped. Beca wasn't saying it as an insult, she didn't even seem to know what she said.
"See Chloe? I told you she'd hear me!" Beca said before turning back to Aubrey.
"Beca, this is your first day so I'll go easy on you, but these are the songs we're gonna sing, okay?" Aubrey spoke with a smile that didn't look at all friendly.
Beca frowned. She stared deep in Aubrey's eyes for a very long time. The blonde turned back to the front and was about to start the choreography again when Beca interrupted her.
"You have OCD," she said.
"How do you know?" Aubrey asked.
"You like it when things are under your control, you're very stressed," Beca said and raised her eyebrows. "You make a very strong leader, but you're hurt."
Aubrey stared at her with wide eyes. Beca just tilted her head to the side.
"How do you.. What?" Aubrey asked, gagging.
Chloe quickly made her way over and pushed Aubrey to the side.
Beca just stared as they whispered and Aubrey took deep breaths.
"Okay, girls. Beca has learned the steps so she'll go in her spot and learn with you," Chloe announced as Aubrey regained herself.
The girls gave Beca a weird look as they began rehearsing the choreography. The brunette definitely wasn't an ordinary girl, there was something else to her. Something that was starting to scare some of the girls, especially Aubrey.
