Little Big One Shots Chapter 26: Don’t mess with the captain pt 2 prequel, a pitch perfect fanfic

rejection-isnt-failure

Promt Yes yes yes yes. I've read this so many times my friend. High school aus are amazing, especially when cheerleading and other sports are concerned! Amazing! Can you continue doing this type of au?
Ooooh. Could we also maybe have a prequel, where Beca gets up the nerve to ask Chloe out?! Ie. Where Beca first sees Chloe and makes an idiot out of herself because she has a crush, but maybe Chloe has a bf on the basketball team, which is why she initially tries out before finding out she's really good at it... and Chloe finds herself charmed by Beca's attempts to talk to her... I dunno. You get my drift ;)

WHEN I READ THIS I OPENLY CRIED FOR AN HOUR! THIS IS THE CUTEST THING THAT HAPPENED IN THE PAST 2 WEEKS! I COULD NOT NOT WRITE THIS AS SOON AS I GOT THIS SOOOO HERE WE GO

One Shot 26:

Beca is nervously pacing in the locker-room. She had told the rest of the girls to go and warm up and that she would join them in a minute. She has been thinking of telling Chloe about her feelings for her but the fear of losing her forever kind of puts a hold on that. The redhead had been one of her best friends since they were little kids and her feelings had grown over the years and she always pushed them down. But she couldn't do it anymore, she has to tell her.

The brunette is so deep in thought that she doesn't hear the door open nor does she see Aubrey and Stacie walk in. "Beca? Are you alright?" Stacie's voice sounds worried as she watches her tiny friend freeze in shock. "W-what are you doing here?" Aubrey rolls her eyes in annoyance. "We came looking for you when the team ran in but you weren't with them. Chloe got worried." At the mention of the redhead's name Beca tenses. "What's going on? Why are you being so weird?"

Beca mumbles something inaudible. "Ok, what did you just say? I didn't get that." The short brunette takes a deep breath before answering Aubrey's question. "I like Chloe, like I like-like her." Beca cringes at how weird and pathetic that just sounded. "Freaking finally!" Stacie shouts throwing her hands up. "What are you still doing here? Go and tell her." Aubrey adds pointing at the door. "You really think I should?" The two girls roll their eyes. "I swear to god Mitchell, if you don't go out there and tell her how you feel I'm going to kick your ass."

"Relax Posen, I want to tell her but I also want to do something special?" The longer she talks the more insecure she gets. "What were you thinking about doing?" Stacie asks genuinely interested. "If I want this to work I'll need help and I mean all the cheerleaders, I'll talk to the team and maybe we can make it happen during the finals." Aubrey nods. "Of course we'll help you out with whatever you need."

Beca puts up a nervous smile. "Relax Mitchell, she'll say yes. Trust us." Aubrey nods in affirmation before pushing the two brunette's out of the locker-room. "Let's go, we need to get to practice. And you need to train your team so we can claim another victory this year."

The three girls walk into the gym. Aubrey and Stacie slam into Beca when she suddenly stops. "What the hell?" Stacie wants to shake the tiny captain but stops when she sees what Beca is looking at. They are watching Chloe getting hit on by Tom. He's a senior and it was no secret that the older guy had a crush on their redheaded friend. And apparently he said something funny and Chloe is laughing out loud. The girls watch as the tall basketball player leans in and kisses Chloe on her cheek. The two cheerleaders watch as Beca tenses up right before their eyes. "Beca-"

"I'm fine… I'll be alright." Beca shakes her head. "Team huddle up!" Beca runs off towards her co-captain Jesse and ignores everything else around her. "Bree, please tell me that everything Chloe told you about Beca was real because if any of it was a joke I'm not sure… I'm not sure how this is going to end well." Aubrey looks at her girlfriend, then at her best friend and then at Beca. "Chloe has always had feelings for Beca, and right now I'm going to talk some sense into our cheer captain."

Stacie watches Aubrey walk over to Chloe. The tall brunette looks over to Beca and their eyes meet. Stacie waves her over. Beca hesitates for a brief moment but decides to join her best friend anyway. "Before you get mad or walk away please hear me out." Beca rolls her eyes but waits for the speech she knows will come. "I have an idea, at the finals game during halftime we can plan something huge for you to ask Chloe out. She won't be able to say no."

"And what do you suppose we do huh? By the time we do it it'll be too late." Stacie groans. "Have some faith, we'll get the teams together today after school and plan the perfect surprise." Beca lets out a sigh. "Fine but how do we get Chloe away from the team?" Stacie smirks. "Leave that to me." Just at that moment Jesse runs up to them. "Talking about a perfect opportunity… Hey Jesse, I need a favor."

Stacie quickly explains the situation and Jesse and the co-captain grin at his tiny friend. "Sure, no problem, anything for my favorite girls." Beca hits Jesse against his shoulder. "Alright lets go we have teams to train… Thank you for everything you guys." The three high-five and Stacie quickly joins the rest of the girls. So all

Both basketball teams and the cheerleaders are sitting outside on the grass. Well, everyone except for Chloe, Jesse and Tom. "So if I get this straight you want us to get all of this ready by the finals in 2 weeks?" One of the cheerleaders asks incredulously. "If we all pitch in we can make it work." Aubrey says. "Well, I guess it's the least we can do for our amazing captains and friends." A girl from the basketball teams says with a little whoop at the end.

Beca chuckles at the cheers following. "Hey what are you guys cheering about?" Chloe's bubbly voice finds its way to the group. "Chloe… uhm-uhm-uhm…" Beca is starting to panicking and everyone is starting to notice so they try to help out by shouting anything that springs to mind.

"Nothing"

"You"

"Just talking"

"Love"

"Memories"

"The game"

Before it can get out of hand Aubrey shushes the group. "What they are trying to say is… we were talking about how amazing the final is going to be in two weeks." Chloe raises her brow in confusion. "Uhm are you all ok? You're acting weird." Beca jumps up with a slightly forced laugh. "Whaaaat? Nooo," Aubrey rolls her eyes at the high pitched brunette waving her arms around. "everything is fine, right guys?"

Chloe laughs at the brunette's antics. "Relax, I believe you Becs." Beca awkwardly scratches the back of her neck. "I don't know about you guys but I need to study for a test so I'm going home." One by one the others follow Stacie's lead and slowly the only people left are Beca, Chloe, Jesse and Tom. "Hey Chlo do you want to go and study together?" Tom asks with an unusually large smirk. Beca's face falls and she prepares for the hard sting that's going to follow when Chloe accepts.

"Actually Beca and I always study for our tests together and I am having some trouble with math and she knows how to explain things to me." Beca tries to stifle a laugh when she picks up Tom's scowl. "I mean only if that's ok with you?" Chloe turns around to face the brunette with a soft smile. "Of course, I would never let you down."

Not in a million year Beca could ever say no to the adorableness that's Chloe Beale. "Great, can we go get some take out on our way? My parents are out tonight and we have no food." Beca quickly agrees and takes Chloe's bag from her because she always does. All Chloe can do is smile and peck Beca on the cheek because arguing about it is a lost cause.

2 WEEKS LATER

The game is about to start and Beca is freaking out internally. She's going over the plays with the rest of the team. "Alright, we're going to rock this. BHS Bulldogs on 3… ONE-TWO-BULDOGS WHOE WHOE WHOE!" The team gets cheered on even more by their awesome cheer squad. That's the last push the team needs before running out on the field.

The game has been really intense since the very beginning. The score is tight until the break when the opponents knock Beca down so they can steal the ball when the buzzer sounds. The team quickly makes their way towards their captain on the floor. "Are you ok?" One of the girls asks slightly panicked. "I'm fine but that was a dirty trick." The brunette grunts when she gets up. "Hey I don't want to be a spoilsport but if you want to get that surprise going you should get ready."

"Oh shoot yeah you're right." Beca makes her way to the side line so she can give Aubrey and Stacie a sign. They get the clue and take Chloe down while Beca makes her way to the manager who is totally in on the plan. Music starts playing and the whole field gets extremely quiet. Chloe is just confused, she recognizes the song because it's one of her favorites.

Her heart stops for a moment when she hears the sweet voice that can only belong to one person. The person she has been crushing on forever. The one person she couldn't live without. "Beca?"

I wanna follow where she goes
I think about her and she knows it
I wanna let her take control
'Cause everytime that she gets close, yeah

She pulls me in enough to keep me guessing
And maybe I should stop and start confessing
Confessing, yeah

Beca makes herself fully visible so she can really see Chloe's reaction to everything. The girls from the cheer squad make their way down and start dancing to the beat.

Oh, I've been shaking
I love it when you go crazy
You take all my inhibitions
Baby, there's nothing holding me back
You take me places that tear up my reputation
Manipulate my decisions
Baby, there's nothing holding me back
There's nothing holding me back
There's nothing holding me back

She says that she's never afraid
Just picture everybody naked
She really doesn't like to wait
Not really into hesitation

Pulls me in enough to keep me guessing
And maybe I should stop and start confessing
Confessing, yeah

The boys from the other Barden University Basketball team run out and join is as best as they can.

Beca is standing on the middle of a perfectly formed circle while Aubrey and Stacie lead Chloe toward her. The redhead is gently crying with a huge smile plastered on her face.

'Cause if we lost our minds and we took it way too far
I know we'd be alright, I know we would be alright
If you were by my side and we stumbled in the dark
I know we'd be alright, I know we would be alright
'Cause if we lost our minds and we took it way too far
But I know we'd be alright, I know we would be alright
If you were by my side and we stumbled in the dark
I know we'd be alright, I know we would be alright

Chloe has no idea when the girls had broken the circle – who would blame her, she's mesmerized by the most amazing girl in the world – to come back with huge boards with the words 'WILL YOU GO OUT WITH ME?' being spelled out.

The song ends and Beca sheepishly smiles at the redhead before her. She drops her arm that's holding the microphone. "Sooooo," Beca drags out awkwardly. "I guess the signs kind of speak for me but… Chloe Anne Beale will you go out on a date with me?"

Chloe stays extremely quiet and Beca starts panicking. The brunette takes a few steps back preparing herself to bolt if Chloe turns her down. Aubrey and Stacie see this happening so step up and stop her. "Chloe?" Aubrey questions her best friend. "Beca I-I would be honored…" the redhead runs forward and leaps into the brunette's arms, wrapping her arms around her neck to pull her in for a long, tight hug. The field erupts in loud cheers and the girls break apart with huge smiles.

The announcer clears his throat hesitantly. "I'm really sorry folks, I hate to interrupt this wonderful moment but we have a game to play." Beca looks up to the booth and waves at the guy to show him it's ok. Chloe pecks Beca on the lips whispering "Go win this game."

With a new found boost Beca pumps her fist up. "Let's go team." The teams all go to their initial places. The basketball girls on the field, the basketball boys sitting on the bleachers and the cheerleaders making their way to the side to cheer even louder for their team.

30 seconds left on the clock and the score is 99 – 98 and the BHS Bulldogs are losing by one point. Beca is open wide and gets passed the ball.

15 seconds left on the clock. The brunette still has to get to the other side of the field but it's going to be a very tight stretch.

8 seconds left on the clock. She decides to make a run for it but the opposing team does not make it easy for her.

3 seconds left, Beca's far behind the three point line and the shot is risky and maybe too far away. Now or never… Beca takes the risk, and shoots.

2 seconds… the ball travels through the air.

1 seconds… the ball hits the ring.

The buzzer sounds the end of the game but no one makes a sound, no one even dares to take a breath. The ball goes around the ring once… twice… thr-

Beca's world freezes and she doesn't hear the loud cheers erupting from the crowd. She gets crushed by her team and the rest of the high school teams. They won only 2 points difference but they still won. The brunette gets lifted up by the boys. Chloe is beaming right up to her. Beca taps the boys on their shoulders to let her down which they quickly comply to.

The brunette gets tapped on her shoulder before she can reach Chloe. She turns around and is being offered the cup by the team captain of the opposing team. "Great game you guys are amazing opponents." She takes the cup and holds out her hand so the two captains can shake on it. "Not so bad yourself can't wait to see what you have in store next year." The two girls part with smiles and no hard feelings.

Beca finally gets to turn around to face the redhead she's been waiting to hug. "Hey…" Chloe looks down at her shoes, looking extremely adorable. "Hey…" Beca chuckles. Stacie rolls her eyes and can't take it. "Oh for crying out loud Beca, just kiss her already." Beca cups Chloe's cheek to make her look up, straight into her eyes searching for a sign from the girl that she might not want to be kissed. But luckily her smile only grows wider. They both lean in to press their lips against the other's.

It feels like thousands for butterflies just escaped their bodies and fireworks are being lit around them. They thought it something like this would only happen in movies but boy were they wrong. They don't want to break apart but have too, seeing that they're still surrounded by way too many people.

Life couldn't get sweeter for our two high school basketball and cheerleading captains. And it would only get better.
