(BECA'S P.O.V)

Wow Beca, this is really good." Stacie said taking my headphones off.

"Thanks" I was showing Stacie some off my mix's because she wanted to help me get my mind off of Chloe.

"So do you want to do something else?" Stacie asked. "How about watching a movie?"

"Umm, can we do something else besides watching a movie?"

"Why not? Do you not like movies?" Stacie asked confused.

"Yeah, I don't really like movies."

"Okay, so-" I interrupted Stacie before she could say anything else.

"Wait seriously? That's all your gonna say about that? You not going to give me a whole speech about not liking movies?" I asked confused.

"Yeah, you said you didn't like them so I am not gonna force you to watch one or talk about it."

"Wow, okay." I was surprised.

"Why?"

"Well, when I had told Jesse that I wasn't a big fan of movie's he gave me this whole speech about how it's crazy not to like them. Then he would like make me watch them when we were dating. So-"

"Wait, you broke up with Jesse?" Stacie said a bit confused.

"Oh yeah, sorry," I said trailing off. "Kinda forgot to mention that."

"Was it because of Chloe?"

"Yeah, I guess he could kinda tell that I wasn't really that into him. But he said that it's cool because he had feelings for someone else."

"Really who? Do I know them." Stacie asked

"Yeah, actually it's-" Than I stopped mid-sentence realizing I was just about to tell Stacie that Jesse liked her girlfriend.

"Who?"

"Oh, it's no one you know," I said then tried to change the subject. "What if we played a board game, we could play-"

"Why won't you tell me?" Stacie said interrupting me.

"You wouldn't know them, so it would be pointless," I said trying to sound as casual as possible.

Stacie stared at me a bit longer, I felt uncomfortable under her gaze and tried to look around the room. "I know them, don't I? Is that why you are acting weird. Oh! It's one of the Bellas isn't it?"

I hesitated before answering but apparently, that was enough to let her know she was right. "I knew it!" Stacie said triumphantly.

I huffed before answering, "Yes it is one Bellas. But Jesse doesn't want me to say anything, so I really can't tell you."

After I finished that sentence Stacie just stared at me before blurting out, "You're lying."

"What, I am so not lying," I said my voice getting slightly higher.

"Listen, in my psych 101 class we are learning about the signs that someone is lying and right now you are showing multiple." She said confidently.

"Really? Then what signs am I showing." I said that to challenge her, but I knew she would be right. Stacie is an absolute genius and her mind is filled with so much information that it would be impossible to win against her. I had once talked to Aubrey about Stacie and asked what she saw in her that really made her say that she is made for her. Aubrey's answer was simple she told me that it's her mind that has made her fall in love with Stacie, but not what we see or hear from Stacie, she only really speaks her mind when it's just her Aubrey.

"Changes in vocal pitch. Difficulty making eye contact when speaking, or shifty eyes. You distant yourself away from the lie, you are using terms such as we instead of I. Then you have a desire to shut everything down. You say no and then pull the attention away from it." Once Stacie finished she then stood up off the bed and began walking towards the window. "But why can't you tell me? Jesse barely even knows me what am I going to do with this information?"

Then suddenly she froze and turned to face me. I noticed she had this saddened look on her face, a look that made my stomach drop because you could feel the hurt radiating off of her. "It's Aubrey isn't it."

I replied quietly, looking away from her. "Yes"

Stacie then let out a sarcastic laugh, "Of course, the boy that Aubrey has had a crush on since the beginning of the year likes my girl."

I was shocked "Aubrey liked Jesse? When was this, you guys got together after sectionals."

"It was towards the beginning of the year, but it goes back much deeper than that. Over this summer she volunteered at this program to help teach kids about music and singing. It wasn't really ideal but she had to complete a certain amount of volunteer hours for the grad school she wants to get into. Anyway, Jesse was one of the camp leaders there as well. She told me they hit it off right away but nothing was ever done about it. She said she wished that maybe she should have given him a sign that she was interested because then maybe he would have asked her out. But since they were in an environment that was exactly ideal for a blossoming relationship, she said she was sure that it wasn't more than a small crush because they shared the same passion in music and that was it. I believed her until we saw him sitting with you one day, I think he had movies and juice boxes, but when I glanced over towards her face I could tell she wasn't over him. When I had asked her out after sectionals I was surprised she had said yes. I thought she was using me to get over Jesse. I had the biggest crush on her since auditions that I didn't care about the circumstances or why she said yes. I just wanted to go on a date with her." Stacie then sighed before sitting back down beside me. "But lately I was thinking that maybe I was wrong. That she likes me and said yes because she wanted to, not because she had to get over someone. I guess I just felt like this was all too good to be true."

"What was too good to be true?" I said slowly, still surprised at all this new information I had just learned.

She was looking down, trying to peel the nail polish off of her nails. "That this amazing woman, someone who could keep up with me intellectually and let me be my real self around them and not just the Slutty Stacie everyone else knows, actually feel the same way. I have never been happier in my life and I truly believe that I had found my soulmate."

"I don't understand if she likes you-" But then she interrupted me.

"If she finds out that Jesse likes her, then everything we had will come crashing down. Something she told me before I had said I liked her was that one thing she regrets is not giving him a chance." Stacie then looked up at me "I can't lose her. I think I am falling in love with her and this might be the only time I will feel this way in my life."

(CHLOE'S P.O.V)

I knew that I shouldn't be doing this, but I had to. As I walked over to Beca's dorm I was preparing myself for what I was going to say to her.

I knew I had told her that I couldn't remember about last night, but that was a lie. I could remember the kiss and the small conversation we had afterward. I should have just told her how I felt then because then there would be no more what ifs. I could have just said that I at least tried knowing that there isn't anything that could possibly happen between us and then just move on.

As I got into Baker hall, I ran into Stacie who looked a complete mess. "Hey, what's wrong?" I said filled with concern.

"What?" she said confused and then looked up at me, "Oh hey Chlo, everything is fine we had just watched a sad movie that's all."

"But Beca doesn't like movies?"

"I got to go." She said before giving me quick hug, "Good luck up there, just don't break her heart." Then she gave me a half-hearted wink before walking away. I'll have to make a mental note to ask Beca what that was all about.

I as got to Beca's door I just took a second to calm down my nerves. All of the worst possible outcomes keep coming to my head. I mean, it's not like Beca actually has feelings for me anyway, but I guess it's just the rejection I'm nervous about because I know that's is gonna hurt.

I knock on the door and I hear Beca yell from inside, "One Sec, I'll be right there". I heard her move somethings around than she opened up the door.

"Chloe? What are you doing here?" She said a bit confused.

"Oh, I just wanted to talk to you about something."

"Okay." When she said that I could tell that she was a little nervous. She opened up the door and I walked in. I came in and she walked over to her computer, going to turn it off. "So what did you want to talk about?" She said still facing her computer.

I took a deep breath before answering "Last night". When she heard that I could see her tense up, but then quickly relaxed. "Oh, uhh... What about last night." Her voice cracked when she said the first part.

"I remember the kiss." She stood straight up when I said that. Her back was still facing me so I couldn't see her reaction. We stood there a little bit before I started talking.

"Listen last night, I was drunk. But-" I took a deep breath before continuing." But do li-"

She cut me off before I could finish saying it. "Before you say anything about how the kiss was a mistake and you want to just forget about it, I just want to tell you how I felt about it." She turned around and was now facing me.

I tried telling her that I wasn't going to say that but she cut me off, "Chloe, please. I'm not very good at opening up to people, and you know that, so please just let me say this."

I just nodded waiting for her answer.

"I really like you Chloe, and last night that kiss meant everything to me. I know how you said that you don't have feelings for me, but..." She paused for a second to collect her thoughts. "I just... well if you came here to tell me that, I already knew. And that's fine with me. I'm totally cool with still being friends. But I'm gonna need some time to move on." While she was talking, I hadn't noticed that she had started moving closer to me. We were only about a foot apart.

I just stood there staring at her in shock, probably looking like a complete idiot. Beca just stood there with a hopeful look on her face but it soon quickly faded. She sadly smiled and just shook her head lightly, "It's okay, I wasn't expecting you to feel the same way."

As she slowly turned away from me, but I quickly grabbed her pulling her into a kiss. Her lips met with mine and I put my hands around her waist pulling her closer. I was trying to convey everything that I wanted to say into that kiss. She brought her hands up and wrapped her arms around my neck.

"That's why I came here, I was just about to give you my little speech about how I like you but I guess I don't have to." She said then giggled before kissing me again.

The kiss went on for a while until we broke apart for air, we stood there in each other embrace, trying to catch our breath. I couldn't stop the smile from forming on my face, and as I looked down onto her face I saw she had the same smile.

I just let out a little giggle and pulled her closer into a hug where I buried my head into the crook of her neck. "I really like you too Becs." I let out a happy sigh, but suddenly my breath itched with realization. Jesse. Beca still had Jesse, and just kissed her. "Chloe is there something wrong?" I heard her whisper into my ear.

"Beca, we can't do this," I said pulling back from her. She looked at me very confused. "But... why? I-I thought... you just said you felt the same way." Her face went from confused to hurt and I hated seeing her like that. "It's not that I don't want to be with you Becs, because I do and you have to know that. But you're still with Jesse. And that wouldn't be fair to him. He-"

"What?" She said looking at me confused.

"You know Jesse, your boyfriend?"

"Oh." Then she thought for a second. "OH! We broke up. I was going to tell you but you ended up getting drunk. Sorry, that completely slipped my mind, I should have told you."

"Okay, but don't you think that you are moving on pretty fast, I mean I don't want him to be hurt by-"

"No worries Chloe, the break up was kinda mutual. He had feelings for someone else."

"Oh, who?"

"Aubrey." I remained still after hearing that. Of course! That's why Stacie was a mess.

"Stacie found out didn't she?" I said.

"Yep, she left here really upset. She thinks Aubrey is gonna leave her once she finds out how he feels." Beca told me before pulling me into another hug.

"Yeah right," I said with a small laugh. "Stacie is smart but he can be so oblivious. We had just finished talking about this the other day and I had asked how Stacie and she were doing and Aubrey said she believes that Stacie is the one, that she has fallen in love with her. When I asked about Jesse, it was like she had forgotten all about him. I have never seen her this way about someone. She only was in one other serious relationship during her sophomore year but even then, it was nothing compared to this."

After our discussion about our friend's relationship, Beca and I just sat there and must have talked for about an hour or so. Before she said how tired she as from last night and we took a nap together. And as I laid there in her embrace, I felt very content. And for the very first time since my suicide attempt, I was glad that Aubrey saved me that day.

I have been asked to do another ending for the Staubrey part in this chapter. It would be about what happens to their relationship once Aubrey finds out about Jesse. Let me know if that is something you guys would like to read.
