A/N Okay guys, we're coming to the end of the movie here, and I've still got at least a couple chapters in me. So please write reviews so I can be inspired to do more. It's harder for me to keep going if I don't know whether what I'm doing is something people like. On that note, the end of this chapter will make a lot of you very upset, but please please please bear with me because I can guarantee you I will get y'all back onboard with the next chapter. So just be patient! As always, thank you for reading and I don't own songs, characters, things like that. Again, don't hate me, it's all part of my plan! #jessestheworst

Outside the Hotel

The bus pulled up to their hotel and Chloe reluctantly woke the still sleeping Beca. Chloe glanced at the other girls. Most were also waking up from naps. Aubrey was listening to Fat Amy's story about how she wrestled a kangaroo, or an aboriginal, or something like that. Beca's eyes fluttered as she woke, one of the most adorable things that Chloe had ever seen. She bit back a smile as she spoke. "We're here, Beca"

Beca yawned loudly and stood up to stretch. Chloe couldn't help but glance at Beca's midriff when her shirt rode up. Beca caught her looking and flushed, quick to pull her shirt down and mutter. "Behave yourself." Chloe grinned and looked away as all the girls clamored off the bus with their bags.

Chloe went with Aubrey to check everyone in. Usually Aubrey and Chloe would share a single room since they spent most of their time preparing, while the rest of the girls split a suite. Tonight was no different and soon Aubrey and Chloe were alone in their room, getting ready.

Aubrey hadn't said a word and Chloe could feel how tense she was. After they had gotten dressed, Chloe came up behind Aubrey in front of the mirror and they both stared at their reflections for a full minute before Chloe spoke. "We got this Aubrey. We practiced our asses off, and we've never worked so well together as a team. There is no way that we can lose."

Aubrey gave herself a reassuring smile before turning to Chloe and giving her a huge hug. "God Chloe, I really don't know what I would do without you. No matter how low or nervous I feel, you're always right there to make me feel better. It means a lot to me" Aubrey pulled away to look at Chloe. "Beca's a really lucky girl"

Chloe rolled her eyes and tried to hide her blush. "Oh please" They both giggled and gave themselves one last look in the mirror before going to meet up with the other girls.

On the Bus

After meeting up with the girls outside the bus, all of them checked each other out, making sure hair and makeup were flawless. Everybody sat down and Aubrey stood up at the front. She called Beca to her side and began her little speech.

"Alright you guys. Now we might not have spent as much time practicing our new routine as the others, and that's my fault for being so stubborn. We could have had a year of amazing, and thanks to Beca we can at least make our end of the year awesome." She turned to the obviously uncomfortable Beca and smiled. "Beca, you are the one who brought us together as a team. Something I didn't have the vision to do. And so from the bottom of my heart, I want to say thank you. Win or lose tonight, we never would've made it this far, as a team or as friends, without you!"

The whole bus started cheering, and Beca couldn't help but grin. "You guys! Thank you! That's really sweet, but it was really all of us that made this happen. Now come on! Let's go before we're late!"

Competition

The bus started up and everyone sat down. Aubrey took the seat next to Chloe and spent the short bus ride mentally preparing herself. By the time the bus pulled up to the venue, you could feel the excitement buzzing off of the Bellas. They climbed off the bus and all filed into the building. As Chloe and Aubrey went to check them in, the rest of the girls were checking out their competition. When Aubrey and Chloe returned, they all made their way backstage.

As they watched the others, they were feeling more and more confident about their number. Then the Treblemakers took the stage. Beca was watching Jesse perform in a way that made Chloe incredibly jealous. Then Benji came out for his solo and took the house down.

Even Chloe had to break her gaze from Beca to watch him. His confidence had shot up since his last minute induction into the Treblemakers. He was in his element up there and the audience was loving it. Chloe even thought she saw a few girls swooning. She was really happy for him. Since she saw his rehearsal at the beginning of the year, she knew there was something special about him. She wished she could say she was surprised when Bumper didn't let him in, but Bumper always cared more about image than talent.

As Jesse and Benji finished, the auditorium went mad and a tiny seed of doubt finally entered Chloe's mind. She pushed it away as Beca, then Fat Amy, gave a last minute pep talk, and then finally it was time for the Bella's to take the stage. Chloe gave Beca one last reassuring smile before they started.

After the Show

They absolutely killed it. The Treblemakers brought the house down, but the Bellas built a bigger one and absolutely crushed it. And once the winners were announced, it turned into mayhem. Aubrey and Chloe immediately embraced, all of their hopes and dreams finally coming true after all that hard work. And now it was over and all Chloe could think about was Beca and how there was nothing holding them back now. Her eyes searched the crowd for Beca until finally she saw her. Running towards Jesse, and promptly locking lips with him.
