A/N: Thank you all for the reviews, follows and favorites. I have alot of things in mind about the next chapters and will be putting them up soon. Without further ado, here is Chapter 10. Thanks for reading! :)
Chloe cried thinking about Grandma Millie. The woman was the only person there for her eversince she was little 'till Highschool. The ginger had to move from home to attend Barden University and live in a dorm. She had met Aubrey during Freshman year of highschool and they had been bestfriends eversince. Before highschool ended, the two besfriends knew that they would attend the same college and live together as roommates and bestfriends. Even though the redhead and her grandmother were apart for a long time, they still kept in touch through phone, and Skype.
The last time Chloe heard her grandmother' voice was when she was at the hospital three weeks ago. The old woman was confined in the hospital due to stomach cancer or gastric cancer.
For the next hour, Chloe layed on her bed not knowing what to think about. She didn't have anyone to talk to since all the girls were at Bellas practice. She could only call the one person that was left in her mind. Tom.
The two seniors dated for a few months during their freshman year but realized their relationship didn't work out. They promised each other to stay friends and keep in touch after their break up. They're both still friends now.
"Hello?" A guy answered, "Chloe?"
"Hey Tom, yeah it's Chloe." The redhead answered sitting up, "Do you have any plans tonight? No one's with me right now since Aubrey, Beca and the Bellas are at practice, and I really need to clear my mind tonight."
"Aren't you suppose to be at practice with them too? Are you ok? I have a party that I'm going to, one of the Highnotes'members is having a birthday party tonight. Everybody's invited. Do you want to come with me?"
"I'm just not feeling well to go to practice. Yeah I'd love to. What time is the party at?"
"It starts at 5 pm. I can pick you up at 4:50 in your dorm and we can walk to the party."
"Sounds good. I'll see you then. Thanks Tom."
"No worries Chlo, I'll see you then."
Chloe hanged the phone up and looked over at her clock. It read 4:15 and the redhead knew she needed to get ready for the party. She stood up from her bed and grabbed a bra, underwear, a robe and a towel from her her closet and headed down to the communal showers a few floors down.
After the senior had gotten a chance to shower, Chloe went back upstairs to her and Aubrey's dorm to get ready. She took out a pink blazer, a black short, and a white tank top to put underneath the blazer. Once she finished dressing up, she fixed her make up and curled her hair.
The ginger just finished right in time before a knock came on the door.
"Hey Chlo," Tom greeting and smiling at the redhead, "You look great."
"Thanks Tom," Chloe said back.
"Are you ready to go?" the other senior asked
The ginger nodded her head saying yes and closed the door behind her, locking it.
The walk to the party was quiet but both seniors managed a small talk with simple questions. Such as How are you and things like that. Chloe didn't mention Grandma Millie on the walk to the party because the redhead wanted to clear her mind tonight.
After 15 minutes of walking across campus, Tom and Chloe arrived at the birthday party 10 minutes after the party had started and was greeted with already drunk college students drinking too many shots and some other friends of theirs that don't even attend Barden University, or just random people who came to the party to dance, get drunk, and get laid.
As the two passed through the crowded crowd, both the tall man brunette and the ginger saw flashing lights, lasers, smoke machines allover the place. With a Dj on top of the stage. The party took place on where the Highnotes rehearsed for competitions and hung out. It was also a auditorium same as the Bellas.
Tom and Chloe made their way to the refreshments stand where the beer, wine, tequila shots and other alcoholic beverages were. Along with sodas, slices of lemons, and different kinds of foods.
"Here," Tom offered Chloe a plastic cup containing beer inside it. The redhead thanked her friend and chugged it all down in one shot. "Woah, easy there tiger." The senior brunette said. The ginger smiled and laughed. "I just want to hang loose tonight. I have a lot in my mind, ya know?" she said screaming thorugh the loud music. Tom nodded and drank a small portion of his beer.
The two stood by the refreshment stands for a while challenging each other who can down tequila shots the fastest. Both seniors were now drunk and made their way into the crowd dancing along with the other people in the party.
"Alright, we're done for today," Aubrey announced after going through the whole dance for their performance on regionals with the other Bellas.
"Finally," Amy says panting trying to catch her breath. "Bree, even if we only did one hour of this, you pushed us hard. Look at the others trying to catch their breath too." The australian said pointing around the other Bellas who were also panting and drinking from their water bottles. "I had to. We have a few more weeks to get our set ready and I'm not going to waste time. This is important." The only senior in the auditorium answered. Amy rolled her eyes, "Yes, we ALL know that."
All the girls gathered their things together and started to leave the auditorium in pairs or packs only leaving Beca and Aubrey all alone together.
"Let's go check on Chloe," Aubrey said breaking the silence as her and the freshman gathered up their stuff. Beca nodded and both headed out the door walking to Aubrey and Chloe's dorm.
"Chloe?" Aubrey said as she took the keys out of the lock of their front door, letting Beca go in first. The two looked around, not finding the redhead anywhere. "I wonder where she went." The blonde mumbled. "What if she's in to some kind of trouble? She wouldn't leave without leaving a note or anything."
"Relax, don't panic," Beca said trying to handle things calmly when she's also really worried about Chloe.
"You're right. Let's go around campus and see if she's anywhere around." The senior suggested.
"Good idea. We better split up, that way we can find her faster." The brunette said grabbing her bag. Aubrey nodded. "We'll just call each other and try to figure out where she is." Both headed out the door and went in their separate sides of the building hoping they would find Chloe soon and if she's okay.
