I just want to thank you all for the reviews and the favourites and the follows. This fic is winding down now with only two chapters left to go and I've really enjoyed writing it :)
I do not own Pitch Perfect or any of its characters.
Beca took a deep breath before entering the Bellas rehearsal space. She knew she wouldn't receive a warm welcome from Aubrey but she was hoping that the rest of the girls would want her back. She walked in and saw the scene of utter chaos. Chloe and Aubrey were being prised apart by a screaming Fat Amy who had thrown herself on top of the fighting girls. Lily was making what can only be described as "puke angels" in the biggest puddle of sick Beca had ever seen. Meanwhile Stacie was blowing her rape whistle while Cynthia Rose was holding her up by her ass.
"Uh, guys?" Beca said, not quite loud enough to be heard over the din. "Guys!" She shouted, drawing their attention. "What's going on?" Aubrey stood up and attempted to straighten out her clothes and surreptitiously wipe the sick from her chin.
"Nothing. Nothing's going on, this is a Bellas rehearsal." She said, ignoring the glares from the other girls. Beca's eyes found Chloe's who gave her a reassuring nod.
"I know. I just wanted to say I'm sorry. What I did was a really dick move. I shouldn't have changed the set without asking you guys and I definitely shouldn't have left." Beca said, looking around at the girls, all of whom were smiling and nodding except Aubrey. "Aubrey, if you'll have me, I want back in." Aubrey didn't speak but she felt all the girls staring daggers at her. Beca tried to make eye contact with Chloe again, hoping the redhead would tell her what to say but she was too busy glaring at the blonde. Beca nodded sadly and started to walk away from the group. She heard various murmurs from the group but when she turned around to take a nearby chair, the blonde dropped her eyes to the floor again. She walked a few more steps before Aubrey finally broke.
"Wait!" She said, her voice wobbling slightly as she tried to regain control of the situation.
"Thank you. That would have been embarrassing."
About an hour later and the girls were standing in the pool, enormous grins on all their faces.
"Aubrey would you pick a song for us?" Beca asked, taking a step forward and standing in front of girls.
"Bruno Mars, 'Just the Way You Are.'" Aubrey said brightly. Beca had never seen the girl so happy and open.
"Okay." Beca said, a little surprised at Aubrey's choice. "Chloe, you okay to take the lead." The redhead nodded and gave Beca a wink. Beca took a second to arrange the song in her before she started singing, delighted when the girls joined in, all finding their place with ease. And she couldn't stop the smile which spread across her face when Chloe's eyes never left hers as she sang. When the song came to a close, Beca wasted no time in pulling Chloe towards her and crashing their lips together, provoking whistles and cat-calls from the rest of the Bellas. Chloe grinned into their kiss while Beca flipped them off. When they broke apart they hugged the rest of the girls.
"Alright flat-butts, this calls for a party." Fat Amy said as she pulled out her phone and sent a series of rapid fire texts. Within half an hour the pool was flooded with their fellow aca-people, including the now Bumper-less Treblemakers. Despite her usual disdain of parties, Beca had to admit that she enjoyed this one. Mainly because she spent the majority of her time making out with a certain redhead. They were tucked away somewhere, several hours into the party when Chloe took Beca's hands in hers and pressed their foreheads together.
"Once for yes, twice for no." Chloe said, her voice a little husky. "Would you, maybe, like to be my girlfriend?" Chloe blushed slightly. "That was cheesy." She giggled. Beca stopped her giggles by squeezing her hands as hard as she could.
"Totally cheesy." Beca said, still not letting her hands go. "But yes Chloe, I would."
They emerged back into the party ten minutes later, still hand in hand.
"I'm gonna go get a drink." Chloe planted a kiss on the corner of Beca's mouth before running off towards the drink table, getting caught in a bear-hug from Jesse on her way. Beca laughed and took a seat next to Aubrey, who was sat on a table, watching the party and nursing a drink. Beca followed Aubrey's line of sight and saw she was staring at Jesse.
"Do my eyes deceive me, or is the great Aubrey Posen checking out a Treble?" Beca said, smirking. Aubrey blushed furiously.
"N-no! Of course not!" She spluttered.
"Aubrey, relax. The only person who cares about that oath is you. Jesse's a great guy and if you like him you should tell him." Beca said, her voice a lot softer than Aubrey had heard it before. Aubrey didn't say anything but nodded. "He likes you too by the way." Aubrey grinned slightly and finished the rest of her drink.
"Wish me luck." She said before she jumped down from the table and headed towards Jesse. She crossed paths with Chloe on the way and Beca eagerly beckoned her.
"Dude, you've got to watch this." Beca whispered one Chloe got close enough. Chloe joined her on the table and internally swooned as Beca's arm went immediately around her waist. The two watched with baited breath as Aubrey approached Jesse and tapped him on the shoulder. They don't know what Aubrey said to him but seconds later and Jesse was pulling her into a heated kiss.
"Oh my god!" Chloe squealed, clapping her hands. Beca laughed as Aubrey took Jesse's hand and dragged him off in the direction of her apartment.
"So how would you feel about crashing in my dorm tonight?" Beca said, smirking at the look on Chloe's face.
"Let me tell you, in the three years I have lived with Aubrey I have only heard her having sex once. And I hope to God I never have to hear it again, so yeah, I'm crashing at yours tonight." Chloe said.
"Awesome." Beca said, taking Chloe's hand in hers. "You wanna get out of here?" Chloe squeezed her hand once and Beca wasted no time in jumping down from the table and pulling the two as fast as she could to her dorm room.
