Chloe walked into the lunchroom with a sigh when she saw Kate once again sitting next to Beca. Kate had been here for a little over a month now and was sticking to Beca like glue. She hardly got any alone time with Beca anymore because of her and it seemed like Beca was starting to get really close to Kate. Chloe sat down across from them with a small smile. "Hey guys.."

Beca looked up at Chloe with a smile. "Hey Chlo how was your weekend?"

"Boring, I did absolutely nothing... I should've called one of you guys."

Kate nodded. "You should have, Beca and I spent the whole weekend together, it would have been nice having you around too."

Chloe's eyes widened at the new information. "Yeah I bet... Beca can I talk to you for a minute?"

Beca stood up. "Uh yeah sure, we'll be back Kae."

They walked into the bathroom and Chloe took a deep breath. "What is going on with you and Kate?"

Beca shrugged. "Nothing.. we just like hanging out."

"Hanging out like you and I do or hanging out like couples do?"

Beca shut her eyes and bit her lip.

"Beca!"

"Maybe both.. we may or may not be together.. we're not exactly exclusive yet... it's not serious."

Chloe's heart dropped. "You said yet.."

"What?"

"You said that you're not exclusive yet.."

Beca nodded. "Yeah..."

"Do you want to be exclusive with her."

Beca shrugged. "I don't know.. maybe."

Chloe sighed. "How come you haven't talked to me about this.."

"This is all new Chloe, I haven't talked to anyone about this! All I know is that Kate is a really awesome girl and I like her a lot."

Chloe nodded. "Okay.." She gave Beca a sad smile and watched as she walked out of the bathroom. Chloe walked back into the lunchroom a few minutes later and saw Kate sitting on Beca's lap with her arm wrapped around her. "Have you guys seen Bree?"

Beca nodded. "She's running lines with Stacie, we start filming today."

"Oh okay.. should you and I practice?"

"I don't think you guys need to, you both have a natural chemistry.. I don't know what it is, but I think it'll turn out great!"

Beca smiled and kissed Kate's cheek. "Thanks for believing in me."

Kate grinned. "Of course!"

Chloe nodded. "Okay then, so when are we doing this?"

"Um around four-thirty... I have some things to take care of after school, but after that I'm free."

"Alright sounds good."

"Will you be able to drive me home Bec?"

Beca looked at Kate and shook her head. "I can't I have to that thing.."

"What thing?"

"You know.."

Chloe watched as Kate came to realization. "OH! That thing.. I can help you, it easier when I do.."

Chloe looked at them in confusion. "What are you guys talking about?"

Beca stood up and looked at Chloe. "I uh.. it's nothing... I'm gonna go get a soda."

Chloe watched as Beca left, she looked at Kate with a frown. "What's going on?"

"Chloe I can't tell you.."

"Kate." Chloe whined.

"It not my place to tell you okay!"

"How do you know things about her that I don't? I was her friend first!"

Kate shrugged her shoulders. "I guess I'm closer to Beca than you are, speaking of that.. we kind of have this thing going, but I know you and Beca are close so I just wanted to tell you I plan asking Beca to officially be my girlfriend later."

"I-I what?"

"What do you think?"

Before Chloe could respond Jess sat down at the table. "Hey losers!"

Chloe let out a sigh of relief. "Jess hey!"

Kate stood up. "Hey Jess. I'm just gonna go get me a soda too, I'll be back!"

Chloe sighed as Kate walked away. Jess looked at Chloe with a small frown. "What's wrong?"

Chloe buried her face in her hands. "Everything." She mumbled out. "This whole thing with Beca, we had a nice thing going and then it started slowing down.. now I know it's because she's getting kinda serious with Kate..."

"And that bothers you?"

"YES! Beca's suppose to be sharing secrets with me and spending her weekends with me, but instead she chooses to do it with her... what does she have that I don't?"

"Feelings for Beca.."

Chloe scoffed. "If anyone has feelings for Beca it's definitely me." As soon as she said it her hands covered her mouth. "Oh my god!"

Jess grinned. "You finally admitted it! I don't know what the hell is wrong with you girl but you need to get it together. Beca is crazy about you still, but you have to make your move before Kate does."

"I-I can't do that to Kate.."

"I think Kate knows how you guys feel about each other. She always makes little comments about how the two of you are so cute and how you guys would be perfect for each other."

Chloe frowned. "Then why is she doing this? Why is she pursuing Beca?"

Jess shrugged. "I don't know.. I think she genuinely likes Beca and knows Beca has a great heart so maybe she thinks that if you won't give her the love she deserves then she will... or you know it could be something completely different."

Chloe laughed. "Yeah.. Thank you Jess for being here for me."

"No problem.. I kinda feel guilty."

"Why?"

"I first came back here because of Stacie... she uh she wanted me to take Beca's attention and keep her away from you, and the first two days I was doing it.. but then I saw you guys together. I saw the sparkle in Beca's eye when she saw you, and like I told Stacie, Beca comes first no matter what so I stopped my antics and instead tried to help you guys get together, but then Kate came and well you've seen what's been going on this past month."

Chloe nodded. "Wow.. Stacie is such a fucking bitch."

"Yeah, for some reason she doesn't want you to have her."

"I KNOW! She isn't getting into fights with Kate. I don't understand."

"Me either, but you're gonna get Beca today..."

"How?"

Jess smirked at her. "Let's just say we're gonna have to make some changes to the script..."

Kate walked up to Beca with a grin. "Hey."

Beca smiled at her. "Hey.. why'd you leave Chloe?"

"I didn't, Jess came so I figured I'd come and wait in line with my favorite brunette."

Beca smirked. "Well your company is always welcome."

Kate leaned in and kissed Beca. "So I was thinking after we take care of your sister we could go out on a date? Like a real one.."

"You have a sister Beca?"

Beca looked at Chloe with wide eyes. "I uh.. yeah."

"How come you never told me?"

Beca shrugged. "It wasn't much of secret.."

Chloe frowned. "So what is the secret?"

Beca sighed and Kate wrapped an arm around Beca. "Just tell her Bec."

Chloe slightly rolled her eyes at Kate but looked back Beca. "Well.."

"My sister lives with me.. an only me, my mom is dead and my dad, well I know I told you he's dead but he isn't, he's a drunk and he's never around. My grandmother knew of the situation my family was in so she left everything to me when she died. My sister is sick and I'm not suppose to be taking care of her because I'm a minor myself. I'm only seventeen, if people found out about us the state could take her and I'd lose her... I just- I can't lose her..."

Chloe looked at Beca with sad eyes. "I understand Beca but you could've told me.. is that why you take off sometimes?"

Beca nodded her head. "My sister is eight and she depends on me a lot.. she needs me, I have to be there to give her her medicine, make sure she eats what she is suppose to, help her with her homework, everything! So I decided to stop fucking around, stay in school, do everything I can to be the best person I can be so that I can take care of her."

Chloe nodded and pulled Beca to her wrapping her in her arms.

"Chlo you're fucking up my rep."

"Bec I don't give a damn about your reputation right now."

Kate smiled at the two. "You should come with us after school, you can meet Riley.."

Chloe looked at Beca for confirmation and she smiled and nodded. "Okay cool." The bell rang signalling the end of lunch. Kate hugged Beca and gave her a quick kiss on the lips before making her way to class. "She looked pretty comfortable kissing you.."

Beca nodded. "I told you things are moving forward with us."

"Yeah.. let's head to class."

Beca smiled and nodded. "After you m'lady."

They walked into the classroom and sat down at their seats. "So do you want to go straight to my house or do you want me to drop you off at your house and pick you up later."

"Um I guess we could go straight to your house, I don't have anything to do anyway."

Beca nodded. "Ms. Mitchell, Ms. Beale is there something you would like to share with the class?"

Chloe looked at her teacher with wide eyes. "I uh.. um.. w-"

Beca jumped in. "We saw what was written on the board about the project and decided to start talking about something we'd like to do, assuming we are able to pick our own partners."

The teacher raised an eyebrow up at Beca. "Oh really? And what exactly did you come up with?"

"We were thinking a seven layer density column, you know getting different liquids and seeing what is more dense than the other and seeing if we can pour them into a column."

The teacher nodded before looking at Chloe. "And what do you think about it Ms. Beale."

"Um I think it would be something cool for us to do, we haven't exactly decided because we just started talking about it, but um I think we might go with that. Layering different liquids and seeing if they will stay in place seems cool."

The teacher smiled. "Very well then, class I hope the rest of you follow in Ms. Beale and Ms. Mitchell's footsteps and get serious about your work, this is the year that counts. Everybody pair up and we'll discuss projects. Beca and Chloe, you two may continue to discuss your density column."

Beca nodded. "Thank you Mrs. Archer."

Chloe looked at Beca with wide eyes when the teacher turned away. "Look at you, quick thinker."

Beca smiled. "Yeah. I'm glad I noticed the board."

Chloe nodded. "Yeah and you came up with a project on the spot that sounds kind of awesome."

"Yeah.. I know a think or two about science."

"And she's smart too! My my Mitchell you're adding on to the list of things I like about you."

Beca smirked and moved her desk closer to Chloe's. "You have a list?"

Chloe nodded.

Beca leaned closer. "Name five..."

Chloe smirked and looked around the room before leaning closer to Beca. "Your eyes... your tattoos... your piercings... your personality... your heart... do you want more because I could keep going..."

Beca looked Chloe in the eyes and smiled at her. "You are amazing Chloe and I am so glad you came into my life."

Chloe grabbed Beca's hand and smiled at her. "I'm glad too Bec, I-"

*bzzz*

Chloe looked down at her phone. "Hang on a sec."

[Stace 12:15 PM] I was watching you, come in the hallway!

[Chloe 12:16 PM] What the hell does that mean? Why were you watching me, and for what?

[Stace 12:17 PM] Just come to the fucking hall way!

Chloe sighed and raised her hand, gaining the teachers attention. "Yes Ms. Beale?"

"May I be excused for a moment?"

The teacher nodded. Chloe looked at Beca and gave her a small smile. "I'll be right back, start working on a hypothesis or something, I won't be long."

Beca nodded and watched as Chloe walked out of the room. Chloe walked into the hallway with a sigh and was immediately pulled away from the door. "Stacie what the hell?"

"What the hell is wrong with you Chloe?"

Chloe frowned. "What did I do now Stacie?"

"I saw you and Beca, I was walking past the classroom and saw you guys flirting. How could you do that to Kate?"

"I didn't do anything wrong Stacie! Get off my fucking back about this, it isn't your business!"

"It is my business, Kate is my friend and you're trying to take her girlfriend away."

"Stacie, Beca is not Kate's girlfriend, not yet anyway.. and why the hell are you so accepting of them having a relationship, but when you thought Beca and I did it was an issue."

Stacie just rolled her eyes and started walking away. "I'm watching you Chloe.. I'll see you tonight."

Chloe sighed and walked back into the classroom. "You okay Chlo?"

Chloe shrugged. "I think I need to reevaluate the people I call friends..."

"What happened?"

"Stacie.. She's telling to me to back off of you and that you are Kate's.."

Beca frowned. "I don't understand that girl."

"Me either."

Beca grabbed her hand. "But you don't need to listen to Stacie.. you're not doing anything wrong, and if you were I'd tell you.. Kate and I aren't committed to each other yet. I can do whatever I want." Beca looked around the classroom then back at Chloe. "For example, I could do this if I wanted to..."

Before Chloe could question what she meant, Beca had her lips pressed against hers. It was over far to quickly for Chloe's liking. "W-What was that?"

"That, my beautiful redhead was me doing something I've been wanting to for awhile. I've missed being weird with you.."

"Well it wasn't my fault, you started messing around with Kate.."

Beca smiled. "Kate and I haven't done anything except kiss, we get close but I always stop it.. honestly I always feel like I'm cheating on you.."

Before Chloe could say anything the bell rung signalling the end of class. Beca smiled at Chloe and kissed her on the cheek. "I'll see you after school."

Chloe nodded with a smile on her face and watched as Beca walked out of the classroom.

"Chloe?... Chloe!" When Chloe's eyes came back to focus she saw Aubrey and Stacie staring at her.

"Yeah?"

"Where'd your mind go off to?"

Chloe shrugged. "I was thinking about something.. what's up you guys?"

"Class is almost over, I was asking you if you needed a ride home."

Chloe shook her head. "Nah, I'm going to Beca's house after school. We're gonna start filming and stuff."

Stacie frowned. "Does Kate know about this?"

Chloe looked at Stacie and rolled her eyes. "Yes she knows about it, she's gonna be there too."

Stacie's frown stayed in place. "How come Bree and I didn't hear about the get together at Becs?"

"Stacie it isn't a get together, we're filming."

"But we're in it too!"

Aubrey nodded. "I think we should be there too, we are in the film."

Chloe sighed and nodded. "Okay.. how about we all walk out together and you guys can come with me while I wait for Beca and you guys can ask her yourself."

Stacie nodded. "Fine by me."

They walked out of the classroom after the bell rang and went into the parking lot to wait for Beca. After a few minutes Beca pulled up and looked at the girls in confusion. "Hey.."

Stacie walked over to Beca and leaned in the window. "Hey Bec, how come you didn't invite Bree and I to your house to start filming?"

"I was going to text you guys later.. I've got some things to take care of and I wanna get everything together before you guys come."

"Oh... okay." Stacie kissed Beca on the cheek and stepped away from the car. "See you later then."

Beca wiped off her cheek in disgust and watched as Stacie and Aubrey walked away. Chloe got in Beca's car with a grin. "You look like you enjoy that kiss on the cheek."

"Ha ha ha, laugh it up Chloe." Beca started to pull off until she heard someone yelling wait. She look out the window and saw Kate running to the car. "Shit! I forgot Kate."

Chloe laughed as Kate ran up to the car out of breath. "What the hell Beca, why were you about to leave me?"

"I'm sorry Kate.. I sort of forgot."

"How the hell do you forget your girlfriend?"

"You're not my gir-" Beca stopped seeing the look on Kate's face. "I'm sorry Kate.. we were talking to Aubrey and Stacie and I guess I got distracted."

Kate nodded and got in the backseat. "I see you remembered Chloe."

"Kate.."

"What? I'm just saying."

"Chloe was waiting for me.."

Chloe turned in her seat and looked at Kate. "Yeah and even if she did remember me over you, that's your problem.. maybe your not making yourself memorable enough."

Kate's eyes widened. "Oh really.. please do tell what I have to do to become memorable.."

"Guys can we not do this.. please!"

Chloe sighed and reached over to grab Beca's hand. "I'm sorry Bec."

Kate leaned forward and turned Beca's face to hers and kissed her. "Yeah. I'm sorry babe."

Chloe frowned and looked out the window, Kate smirked and sat back in her seat and Beca just cleared her throat and started the car. "Let's go..."

They pulled up to the house twenty minutes later and Chloe's mouth fell open. "Wow.."

"It's not much.."

"Not much? Beca your house makes my house look like a shed... it's beautiful!"

Beca smiled. "It was my grandma's she left it to me."

"This place looks great!"

They walked inside and soon heard the rapid sound of footsteps approaching them. Chloe smiled as she saw a little brunette run to Beca. "You're home!"

Beca hugged her and kissed her on top of her head. "Of course I am! It's three-thirty I told you I'd be here, did you make it home from school okay?"

The little girl nodded and looked at Kate with a grin. "I missed you Kate!"

Kate smiled and hugged her. "I missed you too Ry."

"Who's that?"

Beca smiled and pulled Chloe closer to them. "This is Chloe.."

Chloe watched as the girls eyes lit up and she hugged Chloe. "I'm so glad I could finally meet you! Beca talks about you all the time!"

Chloe smiled and hugged her back. "She does does she? What does she say?"

Beca blushed as her sister started telling her the things she said. "She always says how pretty you are and how nice you are. She told me you always smell sweet and she was right." She leaned in closer to Chloe and whispered in her ear. "Don't tell Kate this, but I think she likes you more."

Chloe smiled and nodded before whispering back in her ear. "I like her too."

She grinned at Chloe and stuck out her hand. "I'm Riley by the way."

Chloe smiled. "It's so great to meet you Riley, I can't wait to get to know you more."

Beca smiled at the two and grabbed Riley's hand. "Okay Ry let's get you your medicine while Kate makes you something to eat." Kate nodded and walked to the kitchen leaving Beca, Chloe, and Riley.

"Chloe doesn't have to leave does she?"

Beca shook her head. "No she can stay, I told her the truth like you told me too."

Riley smiled. "Really! She knows what's wrong with me and that it's just you and me against the world?"

"Hey there's nothing wrong with you Ry, but yeah I told her how I was taking care of you and how she couldn't tell because someone could try and take you away." She looked at Chloe. "Can you sit with her for a minute, I've gotta get her medicine."

Chloe nodded. "Of course." Beca walked out the room and smiled at Riley. "Sooo.."

"How come you won't date my sister?"

"What?"

"Beca and I are close, she tells me everything.. well almost everything, but she told me she really likes you and that she asked you out a couple times but you always say no. Beca was really sad one time..."

Chloe frowned. "Really?"

Riley nodded. "Yeah, she had came from your house and she told me that she kissed you and you kissed her back and that you guys were gonna start dating, but then later on in the night I came in her room and saw her frowning at her phone. I asked her what was wrong and she wouldn't tell me, but I saw her phone and I saw you said you didn't want to be with her. She was upset, so I comforted her like she does me and we fell asleep."

Chloe sighed. "I- she told me it was fine.."

"Beca always says things are fine when she's hurt."

Chloe thought back to all the times Beca told her everything was fine and sighed. "I made a mistake, I really like your sister, but now Kate, who is basically my cousin likes her and they sorta date."

Riley nodded. "I can distract Kate if you want me to.. You and Beca can talk things out... my sister does so much for me, I just want her to be happy and be with the one she wants. Hopefully things will get better.."

"What things will get better?"

They turned their heads and saw Beca walking back in the room with the medicine. "Nothing sis.."

Beca nodded and sat next to Riley. "Ready?"

Riley nodded her head and shut her eyes as Beca poked her with the needle. Chloe watched, silently wondering what was wrong with Riley. It was as if Riley had read her mind as she started to speak. "I have diabetes, if I'm not properly taken care of things can get real bad for me.."

Chloe nodded. "It looks like you're in good hands."

Riley grinned. "Yeah.. I am."

Kate walked in the room a few minutes later with a smile. "Someone must be hungry."

Riley nodded. "Yeah I am... Can you and I eat in the kitchen? I wanna tell you about my day at school."

Beca frowned. "Hey! Don't you wanna talk to me about your day?"

"Later, you can talk to Chloe." She winked at Chloe and walked out of the room with Kate.

Beca looked at Chloe. "What was that about?"

Chloe laughed. "Your sister wanted us to talk alone... she's trying to hook us up."

"What?"

"She told me that she wants you and I to be together.."

"I'm sorry Chloe she-"

"No it's fine.. I want us to be together too.."

Beca looked at Chloe with wide eyes. "What?"
