Thankyou so much for all of your support! I've decided I will be doing 43 chapter and have planned the rest of the story! Be warned MAJOR BECHLOE SCENES FROM CHAPTER 40 ONWARD!

"Becs." Chloe walks into Beca's hospital room to find a freshly made bed and not her girlfriend. Leanne strolls past the room, noticing Chloe in Beca's old room at the last moment.

"Chloe? What are you doing here?" Leanne asks, seeing that Chloe looked depressed and had been crying recently.

"Uh where's Beca?" Chloe asks as she walks over to the chair on the side of the room and sits down. Leanne makes her way into the room and sits on the seat next to the bed and turns to Chloe.

"Look Chloe, after you left the other day. Beca… She had another breakdown last night. Saying something about her brother and you. Her doctor has sent her to the mental hospital this morning for treatment and she will remain there for three months now instead of one." Leanne explains and Chloe breaks down into tears.

"There's more… Beca has stated she wants no visitors during her time there. She said she would do it to get herself healthy to come back to you. She doesn't want you to see her this way. She said and I quote, 'I have to do this to be in a healthy relationship with Chloe. I need her in my life but not while I'm like this.'" Leanne adds and Chloe lifts her head to meet the nurse's eyes. They were filled with hope, Beca wanted to do this for her and she had to respect that, knowing she would wait for the brunette.

"She wanted me to give you this." Leanne says again, handing Chloe a small folded piece of paper. Chloe nods her head before taking it and leaving the room, unfolding the note as she leaves the hospital and reading it.

Dear Chloe

The last time I wrote you a letter, I abused you in it and I can't apologise enough for that. If you have this note, it means you've spoken to Leanne and it also means you know what is happening with my current state.

I want you to know that I am going away and doing this for you, so we can be together in a healthy and honest relationship. I love you Chloe Beale and I want to be your girlfriend but I can't while I am like this, while I still have nightmares, and dissociate myself from the real world, while I'm recovering from almost killing myself and still can't look at a razor or pills thinking about doing it again.

Chloe Beale, you are the best thing that has ever happened to me and I want to spend my life, even just part of my life with you, every second, minute, hour, day that I have spent with you will be my most cherished and I will always think of those as I go through my recovery. I managed to get a photo of you from Aubrey and I have it with me to always remind me that I have you.

Aubrey also told me that yesterday you quit the Bellas which was part of my reason for breaking down. Chloe, the Bellas is something you and I both love and enjoy. Go back and make good with the girls, explain to them what's on your mind and allow them to be there for you as I can't be right now. I know you and Stacie have a lot to resolve but she was right, I asked her not to say anything but I've told her that if you speak to her then to show you the letter I gave her explaining my entire past, my confession. You deserve to know if you are going to be my girlfriend after all.

Go and talk to the Bellas, Aubrey and Stacie in particular, they are your friends and kick ass at Nationals like I know you guys will. I'm sorry I won't be able to be there but Aubrey has agreed to get a copy of it on YouTube so I can watch it.

You are and always will be the love of my life Chloe Beale.

I'll see you in 3 months.

Beca

"Oh Beca." Chloe cries as she puts the letter from her girlfriend in her back pocket, knowing that Beca was doing the right thing and fully supports her trying to get better. Chloe couldn't help but miss Beca but she knew that Beca needed her space and was finally ready to accept what Beca wanted. She also knew that Beca was right about needing to make things right with Aubrey and Stacie. Chloe loved being in the Bellas, she loved to sing more importantly and she loved being with Beca, Aubrey and even Stacie at times. Aubrey was Chloe's best friend and Stacie made the blonde happy and Chloe had to be happy for her best friend.

"Aubrey, she'll be back. If there is anything I know about Chloe Beale, it's that she loves singing more than Beca Mitchell. I'm really sorry I riled her up. I didn't think she would explode like that. Beca asked me not to tell anyone. Please baby, forgive me." Stacie sits down opposite Aubrey, taking the blonde's hands in hers. Aubrey hadn't spoken to Stacie or Chloe since the fight the morning before, she hadn't eaten or slept either, Stacie worrying for her girlfriend.

"Bree, you have to eat or at least get some sleep, please. For me." Stacie pleads, moving closer to Aubrey and placing her hands on her cheeks, leaning forward and touching her forehead on Aubrey's.

"Please Baby." Stacie adds as she leans in to kiss Aubrey, placing her lips gently on the captain's. Aubrey trying not to respond but can't help but give in to her girlfriend. Stacie had apologised over a hundred times in the past 24 hours and Aubrey had forgiven Stacie before she had apologised the first time. She was just worried about Chloe and didn't think about how bad Stacie had felt. Aubrey immediately deepened into the kissing, missing the contact with Stacie and Stacie stands up, picking Aubrey up from where she sat.

"Bedroom." Aubrey whimpers and Stacie obliges, taking Aubrey to the bedroom.

Chloe walks back into the dorm room and notices Stacie's bag on the coffee table immediately. Chloe takes a deep breath before looking to Aubrey's door and finding the do not disturb sign on the door knob that Chloe made a couple of days ago after walking on them. The redhead makes her way into her room and shuts the door quietly, moving over to her keyboard and playing around with different chords until she finds something she likes. She starts to play and sings the first thing that comes to mind.

Aubrey and Stacie lay in bed together. Aubrey watching Stacie's chest move up and down to the rhythm of her breaths.

"You are so beautiful." Aubrey murmurs and Stacie moves her head to meet Aubrey's eyes. Stacie places a hand on Aubrey's neck and pulls her in for a kiss but a noise from the room next to them makes them pull apart.

"Chloe." They breath out and listen as they hear Chloe play around with chords on her keyboard. Aubrey knew it was Chloe because Chloe had a certain way of playing and Aubrey had learnt it very well. Suddenly, Chloe starts to play the chords as a song and the two listen as Chloe starts to sing.

Did you lose what won't return?
Did you love but never learn?
The fire's out but still it burns
And no one cares, there's no one there

Did you find it hard to breathe?
Did you cry so much that you could barely see?
In the darkness all alone
And no one cares, there's no one there

Well did you see the flares in the sky?
Were you blinded by the light?
Did you feel the smoke in your eyes?
Did you? Did you?
Did you see the sparks feel the hope? You are not alone
Cause someone's out there, sending out flares

Did you break but never mend?
Did it hurt so much you thought it was the end?
Lose your heart but don't know when
And no one cares, there's no one there

Did you lose what won't return?
Did you love but never learn?

But did you see the flares in the sky?
Were you blinded by the light?
Did you feel the smoke in your eyes?
Did you? Did you?
Did you see the sparks filled with hope? You are not alone
Cause someone's out there, sending out flares

"Chloe." Aubrey knocks on Chloe's door before opening it to find Chloe sitting at her keyboard. She turns around in her seat, her head down as she faces Aubrey.

"Chloe. I'm so sorry." Aubrey runs over and envelopes Chloe in a hug. Chloe immediately wraps her arms around her best friend.

"I'm sorry too." Chloe whispers before looking up to find Stacie standing in the doorway, her arms crossed over her chest as she watches the two girls hug out all the issues that have developed over the past month. Chloe takes a deep breath and lets go of Aubrey, standing up and moving over to Stacie. As Chloe stops in front of Stacie, she finally looks up and meets Stacie's green eyes.

"I'm so sorry Stacie. You were right." Chloe cries into the brunette's shoulder. Stacie wraps her arms comfortingly around Chloe, Stacie had felt bad for the fight with Chloe, knowing that the two needed to sit down and work out the angst between them.

"Come on, let's go talk." Stacie says quietly as she helps Chloe out into the main area of the room, Aubrey following the two girls out of Chloe's room.

The next day:

Chloe enters the rehearsal space, Stacie, Aubrey and herself had sorted out what had happened two days before, given their apologies and agreed for Chloe to come back to the Bellas on the condition that they all sit down and let out anything on their minds. Aubrey believed it would help make the Bellas better as a team, as one unit.

"Okay girls, we've been rehearsing hard and I think we all need to just sit down and talk for today then after we can show Chloe what else we've done so she can catch up." Aubrey suggests and all the girls comply, taking chairs and sitting down in a circle allowing them to see each and every one of their teammates. Aubrey takes a deep breath before speaking.

"Okay so I'll start. I'm scared that my father won't be proud of me no matter what I do. I want to become a doctor but he wants me to be a lawyer like him. When I told him I was going to be a doctor, well we haven't spoken much since then. I'm afraid he's ashamed of me for not following in his footsteps." Aubrey confesses and the other Bellas watch as she starts to tear up but she manages to hold them back.

"B, if he doesn't approve of you then screw him. You are a smart and determined chick who knows what she wants. Don't let him bring you down for that." Cynthia Rose comments and the girls all agree, nodding their heads and smiling. Aubrey happy to hear that although her dad may not approve, the Bellas, her friends did and that made her smile.

"Well I got something, this is kind of hard for me to say." Cynthia Rose adds, standing up from her chair. Fay Amy leans in whispering a comment about Cynthia Rose's sexuality in Aubrey's ear.

"Lezbi Honest." Fay Amy finally calls out causing Aubrey to choke on a laugh.

"Well, for the last two years, I've had a serious gambling problem." Cynthia Rose admits and the Bellas all look to her.

"What?" Fat Amy says without thinking.

"It all started after I broke up with my girlfriend." Cynthia Rose adds and Fat Amy finally got what she was after.

"Whoop there it is." Fat Amy chimes before noticing that CR was looking next to her. Fat Amy notices Denise next to her, mouthing something back to CR. Fat Amy thinks for a second before working out that Denise was Cr's ex-girlfriend, nodding.

"Okay. Well I just…" Chloe says hastily, standing up as CR sits down. All of the girls watch as Chloe starts to tear up, trying to push them back.

"I miss Beca, it's not the same without her here, even if she wasn't here for part of it, she still was part of this team and I know she still is but we need her here. I miss her so much and I feel responsible for everything that has happened to her." Chloe bursts into tears and the girls feel bad for the ginger. All of them moving to Chloe and gathering in a group hug. Aubrey was right, this is what she needed, to make her team a family again.

This chapter was a filler but still important as it was a resolution to the angst that had become so suffocating in the Bellas. Chloe blaming herself being the shock to everyone.

When it comes to Beca, all I can say is that I have a plan.

Also there will only be about 4 or 5 more chapters :(

I'm going to miss this story but I'll be focusing more on League of Angels which I really enjoy writing at the moment. I am about 5 chapters ahead.
