Chapter 6

One month later

It had been once month exactly since Beca's song with Justin had come out and in that time Beca's popularity has skyrocketed. Her career was recalling hitting it's stride with so many artist calling to work with her. She kept true to her word and told everyone she was currently tied to Demi and Halsey and would happily work with them when she finishes. This although meant that her team was also always busy, weather it be in the studio or handling people/press. This was something no one would trade however; they couldn't be happier with all the success Beca was having.

Speaking of Demi, this is where Beca finds her self at the moment. The two were talking about Demi's new album and what direction they wanted to go in. It was originally supposed to be only one song but after talking to Demi, Beca told her she had an idea for the first two songs that'll be released. The idea was to tell both sides of a breakup, the heartbreak side of things and then the getting past side. Something Beca had experience in, Demi immediately agreed and that's where there at.

"Alright so the first song that'll be released will be is Tell Me You Love Me and then Sorry Not Sorry. Is that what you want Demi?" Beca double checked.

"Yup, I like the idea of releasing them on the same day one after the other. I love these Beca, something tells me you've been through that heartbreak." Demi said laughing.

"You have no idea Lovato. Just got past all that tbh." Beca said while taking a sip of water.

"You know Beca sometimes we say we're over them, but we never really know till we see them in person." Demi stated taking a bit of her sandwich.

"I'm sure I'm over wanting her back." Beca stated.

"But are you still angry? You may not want her back but the hurt or anger can still be. That's how you'll know when your over them, when there's absolutely nothing there." Demi added patting Beca on the back.

"Alright enough of this . Let's get back to the music." Beca exclaimed wanting this to be over. Demi nodded with a chuckle and the two got back to the finishing touches. Demi wanted these out no later then the day after tomorrow. These were going to be the main singles off her knew album.

The next day Beca was still in bed after the late night studio session and was peacefully sleeping till her best friend wanted to disrupt her.

"BECAAAA! BECS!" Stacie screamed at the top of her lungs while rushing into her house then room.

Being scared half to death, Beca jumped up and ended up on the floor with loud thump. Snapping her head up with a glare "What the fuck Stace! Ow!"

Giggling Stacie walked over to help Beca up "Smooth landing there Mitchell. But come on we got stuff to do."

"What are you talking bout Stace? I'm free today." Beca said once she got back on her feet.

"Exactly, WE got stuff to do. Best friend date day." Stacie said smirking.

"Stace I love you, I really do but no." Beca said walking to bed.

"Oh no DJ." Stacie picked Beca up "Conrad put me down" Smirking and putting Beca over her shoulder "No way Mitchell. We're spending the day together and you'll getting ready right now." Stacie said as she carried Beca to the bathroom. Putting her down "Now shower and I'll pick something out for you to wear. Don't worry I'll get something comfortable and to blend in."

Grumbling and cursing under her breath Beca got into the shower. Cursing whatever spell Stacie had on her causing her to never be able to say no to her. Going all the way back to college Stacie was always able to get Beca out of her comfort zone. There were things that Chloe couldn't even get Beca to do that the taller brunette was able to. For example, the sex jokes and references, with Stacie they can natural, with anyone else she would get shy and flustered.

Hopping out of the shower she headed to the sink to brush her teeth and finish up. Walking out she saw the outfit Stacie had picked out. Black ripped jeans with a white crop top and a pair of vans, topped of with a camo bomber jacket and a beanie. Looking towards Stacie "See Stace, this is what we call normal attire. Not what every you wear." Rolling her eyes and standing up "Don't act like you don't stare shorty" Stacie added a wink.

"Kinda hard not to when it's all out there in your face." Beca said while getting dressed.

"Flaunt what you got babe." Stacie smirked.

Shaking her head "Alright let's go to where ever it is your dragging me."

"We're just hanging out Becs, you know go eat and visit a couple spots. I need to get some stuff for home." Stacie said heading out to her car. Stacie currently had just bought a brand new matte black Range Rover with red interior and red details.

"Wow Stace I see being a model is treating you well." Beca commented while running her hand over the car.

"Well not to brag or anything but you are looking at the face of vogue. Plus, you know I am a big popular." Stacie said laughing.

"Understatement of the year folks."

Later on in the day after the girls went to a few stores that Stacie needed to hit up, they met up with Jesse and Aubrey for dinner. The four were enjoying each other's company, it had been a long time that they could go out without it being work related. Beca had no problem treating her friends out to a fancy dinner considering everything they've done for her in the past few years. Everything was going excellent until they stepped out of the restaurant.

Once they stepped out they were met with non-stop flashes and questions. Beca being the way she is decided to stop and answer a few questions. She knew eventually she'd have to answer questions about Demi's songs "Beca can you comment on the songs with Demi?" One reporter asked.

"Yeah the songs are amazing, I'm so proud of the final project. They tell the two sides of heartbreak. The sadness then moving on." Beca said with a smile "They should be out real soon. Alright I gotta go guys." Beca said while trying to walk towards her friends. They were fine till a block later when the paparazzi started pursing. They had one block to go till they got to Stacie's car.

"Beca! Beca Mitchell!" Paparazzi were running up to Beca, and were taking pictures of her while she was trying to walk faster. Slipping on her black aviators to try and block out the flashes she kept on walking. "Beca! Are you currently seeing anyone?" Hearing this she rolled her eyes.

"If I am, I'll say on my own time." Beca smirked knowing how people will analyze that.

Beca obviously had given her bodyguard/driver Xavior the day off seeing as she was on a "best friends date" with Stacie. While Jesse and Aubrey were on an actual date. Jesse, Aubrey and Stacie were having a tough time trying to walk without getting snapped and asked questions. But Beca? Beca was getting swarmed by the guys. And being as small as Beca is made it that much more difficult.

Aubrey and Jesse were starting to get really annoyed at how close the paps were getting towards Beca. But they knew Beca could keep the guys quiet and at a good distance. Stacie on the other hand was reaching her boiling point, she wanted to curse everyone of them out. She was trying her hardest to use her frame to shield the smaller girl from everyone. Someone had obviously tipped the paps off for them end up in the situation. Stacie just kept on pushing Beca through the pile.

"Guys please I know you're just trying to her job but can you please give us some space. I can't see anymore." Beca said agitated. Stacie and her were separated from Jesse and Aubrey, she was clinging onto Stacie's arm like a lifeline. She gets claustrophobic when she gets mobbed by the paparazzi, and the paparazzis didn't seem to care at all. That's how she was feeling at the moment.

"Ow! Fuck dude. Please back off." Beca said when some got to close and elbowed her. They didn't hear her plea, they just kept on asking questions and flashing pictures. Stacie however did hear and see, that was the last straw for her. Stacie had taken a few steps back to hold people from catching them form behind but they were getting her by the side. Beca was pissed as well, she tried to walk faster but got dragged down and feel onto the sidewalk. Stacie immediately ran over to her friend.

"Hey! Back the fuck up! She's hurt!" Stacie shouted as she pushed a guy away from Beca, Stacie actually pushed him so hard the guy fell onto his back. "What the fuck is wrong with you guys!?" Stacie bent down and gave Beca a hand to help her up "Come on B let's get out of here."

Aubrey channeling her lawyer voice came rushing over "Guys our friend is hurt so I suggest you have respect and back off." Hearing her voice, they all backed off.

Stacie helped Beca back to her car and wrapped her arms around her protectively. Stacie was absolutely livid at those idiots. Beca was hurt and was obviously in shock that people would get that crazy and not listen. Aubrey and Jesse were not happy to say the least. What was an amazing day for everyone soon turned into a nightmare.

Arriving back at Beca's house Stacie turned off her car and turned towards Beca "You ok Becs?" She asked softly.

"Kind of. Like I never expected them to be that crazy." Beca said shakily "I felt so suffocated and they weren't listening. I couldn't breath Stace."

Stacie held Beca's hands "I know sweetheart. How about we head in and relax?"

Nodding her head "Can you stay here tonight please?" Beca asked in a low voice.

"Of course B" Stacie kisses her forehead and hands.
