Beca faints (or falls unconscious) during a Bella's practice one day it taken to the hospital where the Bella's learn a shocking truth about their favorite DJ. (You decide what they learn. I'm thinking like an illness or something but you can decide) Set in PP2 or PP3 but can be in either.
Don't Scare Me Like That
One Shot 37
The Bellas are practicing their new set for the Regionals. Chloe is making the girls run up and down the stairs to get some cardio in. No one is complaining, not even Fat Amy. Or at least not yet. Ever since Beca became captain and Chloe her co-captain the girls have been having more fun. Rehearsals have been more relaxed. But today was a more stressful day than usual. Regional's are in 2 weeks and the choreography was still off and it's partly because they're all pretty much out of shape. Chloe is really considering to call in help from Aubrey.
Chloe does notice something's off with Beca though. The tiny brunette is panting more than she usually does and looks pale. Ok she always looks pale but this time she's also sweating excessively. "Okay girls, let's take 5 minutes and then we'll continue with the choreography!" Chloe shouts through the room. She follows Beca with her eyes and goes to her to check up on her. "Hey Becs?" The brunette jumps a little when the redhead sneaks up on her. "God Chloe, please don't do that."
The redhead puts her hands up in defense. "Sorry, I just wanted to see if you're ok. You don't look too well." Beca rolls her eyes with a groan. "I'm fine Chloe. Just tired, I didn't sleep much last night so I could finish up the set list and catch up on choreo. Thank you for that video by the way, it was really helpful." The brunette tries to put up a smile but it really is more of a grimace. "Are you sure you're alright?" Chloe asks once more, just in case. "What about I'm fine don't you understand?"
The little freak out doesn't go by unnoticed by the rest of the Bellas who make their way towards their captains. "Easy there shawshank, red only asked if you're ok, no need to snap." Fat Amy is the only one brave enough to talk. But maybe it wasn't the best idea. "The next person that brings up my name and not being fine in one sentence again will do laps until they throw up. Am I clear?" The Bellas all take a tentative step back. "Did I make myself clear?" The girls quickly mumble a 'yes', 'yeah', 'loud and clear' in a jumble. "Alright now get into positions and let's take the set from the top."
Beca walks over to the piano and puts on the music so they can practice the routine. Everything is going just fine until they are in the middle of their 4th run through. Chloe sees Beca struggling with the steps and her arms don't match the beat at all. Just as the redhead is about to call it she sees Beca's eyes roll back into her head and fall backwards. Stacie is the first one to react and lunges forward to catch her tiny captain. She quickly lowers her to the ground. The Bellas watch Beca's body stiffen up and her limbs start jerking.
Chloe immediately falls to her knees and rolls her brunette to her side. She calls out Beca's name while tears stream down her face. "Hello?... Yes my friend is having a seizure and we need an ambulance… Barden University, we're at the auditorium… Thank you very much." Stacie hangs up and looks down at the situation beneath her. No one really knows what to do so all they can do is wait for the paramedics.
A long 10 minutes later the paramedics are lifting Beca into the ambulance. Chloe steps closer to the back but gets stopped by one of the paramedics. "I'm sorry, family only." Stacie pulls the redhead back and puts her arms around her. "I'm really sorry girls. You can try to come to the hospital maybe they'll let you in but I doubt it." The Bellas nod at the paramedic. They know Chloe will be on her way to the hospital the second the ambulance leaves. "Thank you sir."
The girls watch as the car drives away. "Okay Chloe, I'll drive you to the hospital. Jessica or Ashley, can one of you call Beca's dad? He needs to know." Chloe shakes her head at the tall brunette. "No, I'll call. This happened during practice. As co-captain it's my responsibility." The girls all share a concerned look but decide not to fight against her at this particular moment. "Ok, but let us know when you have an update." Fat Amy says in a very concerned tone. "How about we all go? I think Beca would appreciate it."
The Bellas are sitting in the waiting area. Beca was brought in an hour ago. And there was still no news whatsoever. Doctor Mitchell hasn't shown up either and it annoys Chloe to no end. She's staring down at her phone at a picture of her the brunette. It was taken when they went away for the weekend. Just the two of them. It was a distraction for Beca after Jesse broke up with her. So she pushed aside her own feelings and made sure she was the greatest best friend she could be. "Uhm is there a Chloe Beale here?"
The redhead jumps up at the mention of her name. "That's me." She looks up at the doctor before her. "Uhm could I speak to you in private?" It's only then that Chloe notices the other Bellas staring at her. "Yes of course." She follows the doctor into the hallway. "Is everything ok with Beca?" She asks when she's sure the other girls can't hear her. "Yes, she's awake. You can go up to visit her in a minute only not all at once."
Chloe nods. "Yes of course, I completely understand." The doctor smiles gently. "I called you over because I wanted to talk about your friend Beca. Her father is not coming, I don't know why so before you asked I wanted to make that clear. But I wanted to ask you a few questions about miss Mitchell." Chloe raises her brow in confusion but nods anyway. "Beca has diabetes, did you notice any symptoms before she fainted?"
The redheads jaw drops. "S-she has what?" The doctor furrows his brow. "She didn't tell you?" Chloe shakes her head. "Maybe it's better if you talk to her first. She's in room 426, she has been asking for you." With a shaky heart and wobbly legs Chloe walks down the hall and makes her way to her best friend's room. She hesitates before actually walking in. It takes her a few minutes to wrap her mind around the new bit of information she had just gotten. She can't believe that Beca didn't tell her about this. What's even worse is that she didn't notice before.
"Get in here Beale, you're gathering dust out there." Beca's voice brings her out of her thoughts. It jumps starts the redhead and she steps into the room. "Hey Becs." Chloe awkwardly waves at the brunette in the bed. "Hey Chlo." Beca smiles weakly at her best friend. She can see that she's in trouble and boy is she right. "Why didn't you tell me you have diabetes? You really scared me today."
The brunette's smile drops in its entirety. "I'm sorry Chlo, I never wanted to scare you. Can you forgive me?" Chloe lets out a shaky breath and lets her tears fall while walking over to the bed. "Of course I'll forgive you." Beca hates it when Chloe cries so she scoots over to the side of the bed and opens up her arms for the redhead to cuddle into them. She hates cuddling but Chloe loves it and she… well, she really likes Chloe. "Oh sweetie please don't cry. I'm really sorry for not telling you but you don't have to cry about it."
Chloe shakes her head against the brunette's shoulder. "When I saw you falling to the ground I was so scared that I was going to lose you. I don't know what I would do if I would lose you." The redhead's voice breaks time after time, and each time Beca's heart breaks more and more. "Chloe I-" She gets cut off immediately. "You don't understand Beca, I can't live without you. From the first moment I saw you at the activities fair I knew we had something special. Today only amplified those feelings and I know you don't feel the same way but I had to get it out in the open. I love you and I'd rather have you in my life as a friend than lose you forever."
"Did you… did you just say that you love me?" Beca feels Chloe freeze in her arms. "Chloe, I need you to carefully listen to me. I know I should have told you about my… condition. I didn't want to tell you because I knew you were going to worry. You're the only one that ever cared enough to worry. Not even my own dad cares enough… Anyway, what I'm trying to say - in a very weird way – is that I love you too. I would do anything for you. I can totally understand if you never forgive me for not telling you because if anything would ever happen to you I wouldn't know what to do either."
The two stay silent for a while. It takes Chloe a few minutes to stop crying and shortly after her breathing evens out an Beca realizes that the redhead fell asleep. So she reaches out and manages to grab her phone and shoot Stacie a text to come up. It's time to tell the Bellas the truth.
[From] Beca ; 1.37 pm
I know you're all down there, come up I need to talk to you.
[From] Stacie ; 1.38 pm
We're on our way
[From] Beca ; 1.38 pm
Be quiet though. Chloe is sleeping.
The Bellas are hard to miss when they're walking down the hallway. A few short lived moments later the entire groups walks in. They instantly get shushed by Stacie and Beca. "Sorry." Amy whispers when she notices the sleeping redhead. "How are you feeling captain?" Beca rolls her eyes with a tightlipped smile. "I'm fine but I won't be for long… I need to tell you guys something and you're going to be mad."
The girls raise their brows in confusion so Beca decides to continue before she gets bombarded with questions. "All of this happened because I haven't been honest with you girls. I uhm I have Type 2 diabetes. And the last few days I have been eating badly and not getting enough sleep. I've been stressed out with deadlines and rehearsals. I had to go buy new pills but never got around to do it. Today it finally caught up with me. I should have told you guys that I wasn't feeling well instead of snapping at you. I hope you can all forgive me one day."
The girls look around and share some looks before turning to the tiny brunette. "We do forgive you Beca, but you have to promise to let us help you. And if you're not feeling well you should tell us. Or at least Chloe. She really cares about you." Beca nods her head. "I know, she told me. And I feel really bad for scaring all of you and starting today I'm going to try and make up for it."
Fat Amy lets out a loud whoop which makes Chloe jolt awake. "What happened? Beca!" The brunette in question immediately pulls the older girl into her arms and hugs her tight. "Shhh relax, I'm right here. I'm not going anywhere." Chloe relaxed into the touch and a chorus of awes fill the room. "Oh shut it you guys, it's nothing you haven't seen before." The Bellas start laughing and soon Beca joins while Chloe tries to hide her face in the brunette's neck.
"Hey you guys, can I talk to Chloe alone for a minute?" The girls nod and make their way out. Chloe sits up a bit so she can look into Beca's eyes. "I know that we kind of started things a bit in a well I don't know… reverse way but I do want to do this the right way. So Chloe Anne Beale will you go out with me? Like on a real date? I mean of course a real date because why would I ask you out on a fa-"
"Beca!" Chloe stops the brunette's rambling and giggles. "I would love to go out on a date with you." Without further notice or any more words Chloe leans in and presses her lips onto Beca's. The kiss is soft and sweet but way too short. But the good thing when they break apart is that they can do it again and again and again… And no matter what would happen in the future, they would never keep anything from each other again.
