Chapter 2

- Chloe's POV -

She felt like she had been searching for that small brunette forever! It's been about 2 weeks since she's seen the girl and doesn't even know her name thanks to Aubrey cutting her off in the middle of the conversation they were having. She's asked around if anyone has seen her and she got one vague response from a Korean girl named Kimmy Jin. Kimmy Jin said that she was a loner and had no friends which made Chloe sad and even more determined to find her just so they could be friends...or maybe something more.

Who was she kidding? Why was she even looking for this girl so intensely? Did she like this girl? No, they've never even really talked She decided to give it a rest for the day and started walking back to her and Aubrey's dorm. On her walk through the quad she was only looking down and getting lost in thought. All of the sudden she was slammed to the side by someone running. She went to turn around to yell at this rude person, but as she did she noticed the dark brown hair and the small figure. She started to call out to her but of course since she didn't know her name it wasn't very useful. Instead she put her running speed to max tryin to catch up with the girl, 'How is this girl so fast? She's so small!' she thought. Finally she reached her when the girl was starting to slow. "Wow your quick!" She said half out of breath. The girl turned to see who was talking and stopped her movements immediately. Chloe noticed that her mascara was smudged, eyes puffy, and it looked like she had a bruise forming on her arm.

- Beca's POV -

She had just arrived at her dad's house and rang the doorbell and her stepmonster Sheila opened the door. "Beca what are you doing here?" She asked with annoyance present in her voice. Beca told her that her dad had invited her over for dinner so they could all talk, as much as she didn't want to talk with Sheila in the room she knew she had to in order to get what she wanted. Her dad got home about 10 min after Beca first arrived and greeted her.

They set the table for dinner together and started to talk about Beca's dream to become a music producer and moving to LA. "Dad I really really want to move to LA and become a music producer, I've been dreaming about it for years now."

"I know Beca but you she get a college education first just incase you change your mind on what you want to do for a profession." Sheila rudely interrupted the conversation she was having with her father and put in what she thought of Beca's dream. "Your not even good enough to do any of that shit, nobody is gonna notice you because your a nobody. Why are you even trying to get there if your never gonna make it in the big leagues anyway?" Beca felt tears starting to form in her eyes when her father only looked at Sheila and then back at his food, not even bothering to defend his own daughter. Beca looked at her food then at her dad and got up and left her father's house.

She was just so angry at him and Sheila but what Sheila said has always been in the back of her mind. "What if she's right?" She said to herself. 'She is right stupid. Get it? Nobody care about you or your music. Why do you continue to try?' The voices in her head start to become too much for her to endure. She started running, sprinting if she was being honest. She wanted to feel something to get rid of the voices that wouldn't go away. She saw a tree and decided to swing her arm so forcefully at the trunk until she was satisfied that the pain was enough. She wished she was back in her dorm, at least then she could've used her razor.

She began to sprint again when the pain in her arm had subsided and needed to focus on anything. The voices were back. 'You think you can just run away from us? Ha! It's not that easy little girl. Your just a worthless little nobody. Why don't you just end it already? No one is going to miss you. If anything your roommate would be happy to have the room to herself.' She began to feel the tears start to slip out of her eyes and roll down her cheeks, but that didn't stop her from running. She even ran into someone and acted like it never happened and continued running. She heard someone yelling but ignored it until it stopped. Beca was nearing Baker hall where her dorm was and began to slow down to a walk. Not even 5 seconds had passed when she heard someone next to her say, "Wow your quick!"

Beca had recognized that voice from somewhere. She looked up quickly to see who it was. When she did so she was met with two bright blue eyes and fiery red hair. She stopped dead in her tracks because she looked to pretty. She was stuck in that position until the girl spoke. "Hey, it's me Chloe! Remember the activities fair? Acapella group?" Beca had just registered what Chloe had said. "Oh yeah! Chloe yeah I remember you."

"Yeah I never got your name though" Chloe said with a wink. Beca was confused at this wink, 'Why was she winking at me?' she thought.

"Oh right yeah sorry, it's Beca." She noticed that Chloe had started to look at the arm she had smashed into a tree and pulled it behind her in one swift motion. Which didn't go unnoticed by the red head. "What happened to your arm Beca?" she asked. 'Shit. Come up with an excuse quick!' she thought. Beca told her it must've been when she ran into someone back on the quad. She really just wanted Chloe to drop the subject so she could go to her dorm. She remembered the whole reason why she wanted to go there and got more antsy. She mumbled a quick excuse to Chloe and ran up to her room not even caring about what the red head was going to say to her.
