I had a little trouble writing this out, especially the part between Chloe and Emily. It was hard to come up with what Emily was trying to say and Chloe responding to her. Hopefully you guys like this!

Also, please feel free to give me some more suggestions on what to write.


"Hey Chlo, can I talk to you for a sec?" Emily asks as she sits down at the kitchen counter.

"Sure thing." Chloe leans across the counter, opposite the younger girl. "What's up?"

"I… uh…" Emily frowns, trying to think of the right thing to say.

"You know you can tell me anything, right?" Chloe says, reaching over to grab Emily's hands.

"I know, it's just that… I don't know how to say this right." Emily sighs, looking down at their joint hands. "I love you guys so much, but sometimes I feel as though I'm always being treated as a child. Not really for my age. And I'm only a few years younger than you guys. I mean, I guess I've been asking for it the way I act most of the time."

"I'm sorry if you feel that way Ems. You know we do it for fun. If you want us to stop, we can." Chloe looks at Emily.

"You don't have to stop. I'll admit, it's fun to act like that sometimes, forget about responsibilities and stuff like that. But I guess it's just that moving away from home, I feel like things have changed. I mean I'm releasing an album soon!" Emily says exasperated.

"Can I ask what brought this up?" Chloe questions the younger girl who looks a little stressed.

"I just feel like I'm different to the Emily that was in Barden. And I've been working so hard in the studio with Becs. And I'm trying to look for an apartment close to you guys. And everything is just happening so quickly!" Emily says in a rush, confusing Chloe.

"Emily, sweetie. Slow down. Take a deep breath." Chloe watches as Emily inhales slowly before exhaling. "Now, tell me. How did this come up?"

"I was talking to Benji and he asked why you guys still treated me like a child. Like Beca being over protective and you telling me off for swearing and all that." Emily tries to explain.

"So, you're saying that you feel like an adult but not really because of the way we treat you?" Chloe tilts her head.

"I guess, that's what I'm trying to say. I want to try and be an adult for once and have my own responsibilities without you, Becs or the rest of the Bella's dictating my choices. If you know what I mean."

Chloe nods in understanding. "I get it Em. You want to take on your own responsibilities and be independent. I know that the swearing part was more for fun, because let's be honest. None of us could ever see you swearing, but then here you are." Emily grins and Chloe giggles. "But a lot of the overprotectiveness is more Beca. But it's within reason. You're family. We always look out for each other. But it was also your mother who requested it."

Emily frowns. "What do you mean?"

Chloe sighs and smiles. "Your mother asked us to look after you since she's not here to do that. She's just worried because it's the first time you're living in a different state that is far away from home. She just wants you to be safe. We made a promise to her."

Emily nods slowly. "Mum was always worried about me. Even when I went off to Barden."

"We can still keep your mother's promise, just being less dramatic over it. You will still be our baby Bella. We are family. And we are all super proud of you. I'm super proud of you and I'm so excited for the album. Myself, Becs and the rest of the Bella's all support you Em." Chloe moves around the counter and wraps her arms around the taller girl.

"Thanks for understanding Chlo. I love you guys so much and I can't thank you all enough for all the support you have given me. Especially when I moved here. I guess I just want to try and be the bigger person for once and take on my own responsibilities." Emily smiles, tightening her hold on the older girl.

"We will always be here for you Em. Bella's for life." Chloe grins.


Emily takes a deep breath and grins widely at the wild screams she hears from backstage. She jumps up and down in her spot, shaking off all of her nerves. A hand lands on her shoulder and she turns to see Beca with a soft smile.

"You ready Em?" Emily nods.

"I'm a little nervous. This is the first time I'm going to perform in front of so many people! By myself!" Beca chuckles.

"It may seem a little intimidating at first. But once you get into it, you'll enjoy it. You'll forget about your nerves." Beca reassures the taller girl. "Plus, all the Bella's are going to be front and centre. Supporting you and being your number 1 fans."

Emily giggles as she imagines each of the Bella's in the front row doing crazy things. "Thanks, Becs."

"You'll be awesome! Now get ready to crush it." Beca smirks.

"You've been spending too much time with Amy, haven't you?" Emily raises her eyebrows, grinning.

Beca rolls her eyes. "Whatever nerd."

"Love you Becs!" Emily wraps the smaller brunette in a quick hug before moving off to the side of the stage. She peaks around to see the arena full of people, screaming and shouting. Beca comes up beside her as the stage darkens. The screams and squeals get louder and people begin to chant Emily's name.

"EMILY! EMILY! EMILY! EMILY!" Emily's jaw drops, turning to Beca.

"They're chanting my name! Do you hear that Becs!" Emily squeals excitedly.

"Get out there and show them some real talent." Beca smirks and Emily takes a deep breath before walking out onto the dark stage. Emily takes a look around her, landing on the front row where the Bella's are jumping up and down. Emily smiles to herself before nodding and starting off.

"Hey!" The music to 'Love Myself' starts to play and the audience scream loudly, almost deafening. Emily grins as the lights flash to the bass and she walks closer to the front of the stage as she sings the first verse. "When I get chills at night…"


After singing her final song from her EM. J album which was 'Rock Bottom', she grins widely as she observes the crowd. "How are you doing tonight LA?"

Wild screams echoed through the arena. "I see you guys are just as excited as I am. Thank you all for coming out tonight. Although I'm guessing a lot of you are here for Beca, right?"

At the mention of Beca, the screams seemed to have gotten louder. Emily laughed. "I'm so grateful for Beca allowing me to be her opening act. It's been really fun. Now before I get Beca here. I would like to sing a song that I wrote which was the first to be recorded with the one and only Beca Mitchell. Some of you may know this from a certain acapella group performance. It's called 'Flashlight' and I want to dedicate this song to the Bella's who are my family and are here right now!" Emily points directly to the group of girls in the front row and laughs as they go crazy.

"WE LOVE YOU EMILY!"

"GO JUNKIE!"

"WORK IT LEGACY!"

Emily shakes her head at their craziness. The stage lights fade to darkness and a spotlight shines directly on Emily. The piano begins, and Emily sees Beca backstage giving her a thumbs up. Emily returns it and looks directly at the Bella's.

"When tomorrow comes, I'll be on my own…."

Halfway through the verse, phone lights turn on and begin waving back and forth. Emily tears up slightly, reminding her of her final Bella's performance with the girls. How she's here now, standing on stage and singing it by herself.

She can hear the Bella's in the front row singing with her quite loudly and she smiles softly as she continues singing.

"You're my flashlight, you're my flashlight, you're my flashlight…. Ohh" Emily ends the song with a wide smile as the audience cheer.

"You've been amazing tonight LA! Thank you so much! Now, for the moment you've all been waiting for!" Emily grins as the audience seem to scream louder than she's ever heard. "LA! Make some noise for Beca Mitchell!"

The audience go crazy wild as Beca runs up on stage, giving Emily a hug.

"That was amazing Em. You're doing well!" Beca says to the taller girl before pulling away and facing the audience.

"What's up LA!" Emily grins as she moves off stage, so she can quickly make her way to the rest of the Bella's. Emily quickly gives her mic to one of the tech guys as well as her ear piece before heading to the front row where Chloe tackles her in a hug.

"You were aca-awesome! I'm so proud of you!" Chloe squeals.

"I should teach you some more dance moves Em, those were pretty great." Stacie winks at her. Emily giggles.

"Nice one Emily! Now! Group hug!" Amy shouts and they all crowd around, pulling Emily in a massive hug. They then pull away to watch Beca's performance.

"If you know this song! Sing it with me!" Emily, along with the Bella's screamed wildly as the song starts.
