A/N: As promised, here's Chloe's chapter.

Thanks for the comments so far.

Almost at the home stretch.

I don't own pitch perfect.

Chloe was a little confused at the scene that was going on as soon as she opened the door to her apartment, her hand gripping Beca's tighter than ever.

Beca gave a squeeze back, trying hard to suppress a chuckle, as they stepped into the living room, Chloe clearing her throat to get everyone's attention.

But they were all a little engrossed with their own business.

What was going on exactly?

Well…

A rather tall and dashing Italian guy in a suit - Dantes, the head of Alex's security detail – had Jesse raised slightly above from the floor. Bash was trying to get him to put Jesse down. Some of Alex's other guards were trying to manhandle the Bellas, mainly Flo, Jessica, and Ashley were being subdued, Alaric trying to calm them down. Amy was wrestling on the floor with one of them while Lilly's tied some of them, mouths gagged and all, to one side of the room. Emily was too busy trying to help Benji whose nose was apparently bleeding. CR was busy trying to get one of the suits to let Stacie go while Stacie was too preoccupied by said suit and the verbal smack-down that was quickly escalating between Alex von Albrecht and Aubrey.

Chloe tried clearing her throat a little louder this time.

Still nothing.

Truth be told, Chloe was a little impressed that their neighbors haven't complained with all the racket they've been making.

"Should we cough even louder or just stand here until they all notice our presence? I mean we can probably slip away now if that's still what you want Becs, I don't think they'll be any wiser."

Beca laughed a little, finally letting Chloe's hand go as she placed two fingers in her mouth and whistled loudly.

That did the trick.

"Beca!" they all exclaimed. Dantes finally let Jesse down, Bash got all of the other suits to back off, the Bellas simply hanging around, waiting for something to happen – because they were sure that something was going to happen.

Alex didn't waste any time and crossed the room towards where Chloe and Beca were standing, Chloe positioning herself in front of Beca feeling rather protective of her.

"I'm guessing it was your idea to leave the phone and Beca's car in the parking lot, and take her where? Huh? People are worried sick and you decide that the two of you can take a vacation?"

Chloe sighed. "I'm guessing you're the reason for all this commotion? Believe it or not Alex, that whole thing was all Beca."

"Really?" Alex scoffed, trying to reach out to Beca but Chloe pushed her back.

"No. You don't get to just grab her and take her away. Beca has the right to make a decision, which ever one she makes." Chloe argued.

And truth be told she was afraid that if Alex reached her then she might just take Beca away.

That she'll never see her again.

And Chloe knew she couldn't live with the thought of it.

"And what? You're thinking she'll just go back to the way things were with you before all of this." was Alex's reply.

"No, I don't expect that. But she has every right to do as she pleases and lead her life the way she decides to."

Which was the truth Chloe knew whole-heartedly.

And wherever those decisions take Beca, Chloe was sure to follow this time.

She's not going to waste any more time.

She wasn't going to let her slip away again.

"Yeah, I'm sure your intentions are all but pure. That's why it took you what, a good ten hours before you came back here with Beca?" Alex retorted rather venomously.

And that stirred Chloe's anger even more.

Despite the fact that she was doing her best to be calm and civilized.

"She's not yours to claim Alex, and she wanted time to think. I just gave her that."

"Yeah, but apparently she didn't want time away from you." she spouted back.

"Well excuse me for being the only one who can understand her, for being the one who actually wanted to be there for her. She just found out the…"

"Being the one there for her? Really Chloe? Where were you the last five years? I was the one who nursed her back to health? And what did you do? Mourned her lost and moved on?"

That definitely hit her the wrong way.

Because really, they were back to that argument again.

"We thought she was dead because of you, you selfish…" Chloe started to say but Alex never stopped speaking,

"Yeah, and it didn't even occur to you to…"

"Whatever justification you think you can give, I already know it is going to be pure and utter bull." Chloe simply said.

Talking to the supposedly brilliant doctor was like talking to a rock.

"Just like it's pure and utter bull you spent a night at some motel with Beca."

"How do you – do you have no respect for privacy at all? If you knew where we were all along then why didn't you just storm in like you did here last night?"

"You were already gone when I did. And believe me, I would've."

"Oh, of course, because what? Beca's a possession to you? And I was what, stealing her away?" Chloe threw back.

"I'm only looking out for her wellbeing."

"NO!" Chloe all but shouted. "You are not. You're being obsessed at keeping her with you!"

"And you're not obsessed at chasing away the past? Hold onto whatever little of it you can still cling on to? You honestly think that what, that while you dreamt of her every single night she was holding onto you somehow too? Is that how much of a fool you are? Beca's never even been yours to begin with. She was his." she argued, pointing at Jesse. "Did you dream about her too back then? Want her so much but didn't know how you could have her? Until what? Until you finally get what you want from her, I mean you probably already – " Alex started to say.

That is, before Chloe slapped her.

Hard.

Like her hands were thunder and lightning all at the same time.

Fast and heavy.

Alaric looked a little surprised, and before the suits could reach Chloe for slapping Alex, he had managed to stare them down.

Chloe was also pretty sure all the Bellas gasped.

Aubrey completely speechless too.

Because as scary as Chloe could get when she's really mad, they've never seen her actually slap someone in the face before.

Chloe can plot all the take downs of different acapella teams that she want, and maybe she'd sometimes suggest doing more than plotting, but she was never really the violent type.

She wouldn't even dare hurt a fly.

But she's really had enough.

How dare she!?

How dare she say, or even attempt to insinuate what she was saying?

Chloe could feel a numbness in her heart as her anger rose.

"You have no right." she said, her voice distant and cold. "You don't even love Beca. You're stuck in whatever fairytale land you've constructed for you to live in, trying to desperately want to live out the days you've lost with her. With Julianne. But Beca's not Julianne. And it will never account for the fact that you stole her from us. That you stole five whole years from us. Five years we could've spent with her. And if you honestly think you can get your hands on her again without going through me at the very least, then you're wrong."

Alex had no response to that.

She was pretty stunned to say the least.

Chloe wasn't sure what was going to happen next.

But she really didn't have any more time to think.

Because right after her little speech Chloe felt her heart sink, her stomach lurch with a fear that had suddenly filled her.

Bash jumping through the furniture to reach the other side of the room.

He was the first to see it coming.

The Bellas all rushing in to reach what was behind her too within seconds of Bash.

Jesse and Benji were on their feet too.

Alex starting to come her senses.

It was an unexpected turn.

All thanks to one DJ.

And a soft little thud.
