Bestie's

When Beca woke up the next day it was to an empty bed, a note and a bandaged hand. She frowned. She couldn't blame Chloe if she did feel like whatever happened yesterday was a mistake. She did hope that one day though...I shouldn't even think about going there. She took the note that was placed on the pillow Chloe laid on last night.

Hey Becs...

I just wanted to apologize for not being there when you woke up. I also wanted to tell you that what happened yesterday, I do not regret one bit. Just. Please understand that this is all new to me. Also the bigger fact is I don't know if I did those things because of how you make me feel or because I was hurting because of Tom. This is way too confusing. Let me figure this out. You don't need to wait for me. I'd totally understand if...well...just know that I would understand.

Chlo

After reading that Beca honestly didn't know if she should cry or if she should storm over to Chloe and Aubrey's place and just kiss the red head to make a point that it's okay to be gay...it's okay to be confused...or that she doesn't need to label herself...or...Beca shakes her head. She sighs. She lets the tears go. This was a very big warning sign. Beca didn't know yet if it was a good sign or bad sign that Chloe wanted to figure out whatever it was she was feeling or if it was a bad thing because there was a chance that what Chloe was feeling was all because Beca was different. Beca had always been different. She didn't want to think about this anymore. She grabbed her stuff and headed for the showers. Maybe a cold shower would clear her mind.

The VERY cold shower did not help at all. She was still too deep in thought. In-fact she was so deep in her thoughts that she did not notice Blonde hair and Cobalt blue eyes glaring daggers at her. Perching on her bad was Aubrey Posen. Beca did not notice her Commander General. Sorry. Captain. Well not until said Harpy cleared her throat. With a *ehem ehem* that would make Umbrige jealous.

Beca raised an eyebrow and gave her 'captain' a what the fuck are you doing here look. Aubrey took in a deep breath before speaking.

"Mitchel." She says in a crisp voice laced with controlled anger.

"That is my name...yes..." Beca remarked in a snarky manner.

"Enough! I came here because I had to comfort my best friend when she came home this morning. I am assuming that you know why she had to come home bawling her eyes out?" Aubrey replied using the same tone of voice.

"Well...that depends on what you already know doesn't it? Plus I am not bound by anything to tell you about Chloe's personal life. Aren't you supposed to be like her bestest friend or something?"

"Don't try to wiggle your way out Mitchel. I am her best friend. That is why I am investigating."

More like interrogating. Beca thought rolling her eyes in her head. She is trying not to lose her cool. Aubrey is Chloe's best friend. She repeated that mantra over and over in her head.

"Well for starters I need to know what Chloe told you so I know where to begin Posen. I don't want to break Chloe's trust by sharing something that I shouldn't and before you cut me off I personally do not care if you are her best friend. I do not want to break her heart. I do not want to make her cry and I do not like seeing her broken and if possible I want to make her happy. I'd give up my life for her in a heartbeat Posen. Now...speak." Beca knew that she had just basically confessed her love for the Redhead to her best friend but she didn't care. Aubrey needed to get her head out of her ass and realize that she is definitely gay and not faking it.

"Mitchel...You do realize that what you just told me was basically a confession of...love right?"

"Yes. What of it Posen?"

Aubrey squealed. Like school girl happy squeal. It surprised Beca. Hell that was not the only thing that made Beca think that the apocalypse was coming. Aubrey Posen gave her a bone crushing hug and began spinning her around.

"Finally!"

"Did I miss something Posen?"

"Sorry! Sorry! God! Beca! You have no idea how long I've been wondering about who you had a thing for Stacie or Chloe. It was driving me mad!"

"Why would it matter to you if I have a thing for either of them?"

"Don't give me that tone of voice Beca. Even I know you would be relieved to know that your best friend isn't into her own best friend."

"Waiiiit. Did I get that right? Are you actually telling me that you are into Stacie? Then What the hell is this interrogation for?! I am not some middle man Posen you dig the girl-" Beca was cut short when Aubrey decided to put in her two cents.

"Yes! Okay! I like Stacie I may even Love her if I could get closer to her. But I am so God damned terrified of getting close to her Okay?!" Aubrey began tearing up.

"Aubrey! Jesus Christ! I'll help you if it means that much to you just don't start crying I don't know what to do around emotional people if you haven't noticed my awkwardness when interacting with anyone else...then well you're not very observant are ya?"

"Sorry Uhhh well back to Chloe. All I got from her was broke up with Tom, You were right, Beca and I kissed, and Scared. So mind telling me what happened from the very beginning? Like from when you guys got out of juvy?"

"Seriously Posen? Why is that night significant?"

"Just humour me. I need to piece together the puzzle that is one Chloe Beale. Trust me. I'm trying to help you here. Get the girl so to speak."

"And why would you help me get together with your best friend? Why would I just begin to trust you when you've been this cold bitch to me ever since we met at the activities fair? You squealing and hugging me was a shock Posen. You being here and being all friendly is making me believe that I am currently experiencing an odd version of the apocalypse."

"Beca. You have to know. It was just my defence mechanism. It's how I operate when I feel threatened. I thought you liked Stacie you know...uhhhm...That way..."

"Geez...is there anyone in the Bella's who isn't bisexual or downright lesbian?"

"I don't think Amy is BI or straight up gay...and for the record Beca...I'm sorry if I have been singling you out a lot and well being a bitch. I have walls too you know."

"I get it Posen. Let's just start our story time so you can explain to me why you're really here. I highly doubt it's just to get the full story from me."

Beca recounted to Aubrey everything. Yes. Even the kiss though she was loathe to do it. Aubrey did deserve to know she is Chloe's best friend.

"So now you know the whole story..." Beca let her sentence drag hoping Aubrey would catch her drift.

"Right well. Beca...I want to help you. Believe me. I've never seen Chloe as happy as she is whenever I see her around you or when she's thinking about you. Hell even just a text message from you lights up her whole face. What I need you to understand is...Chloe is scared. Her parents...well we don't know where they stand with the whole homosexual thing. For her whole life Chloe had been straight. Well was straight...until she met you. Give her time Beca. That's all. Even if she says that she doesn't want you to wait for her secretly it's what she's hoping for. Annd...I know that this is sort of out of line for me since we aren't even close or well friends for that matter but...I wanted to ask you...about...uhhhm...well you see...I have a thing...But I already told you that...but well..."

"Jesus Christ Posen yes you have a thing for Stacie one of my Best Friends. You want my help? The answer is maybe. I need to see you mean what you're telling me before I even consider it. Stacie and I go way back and if it weren't for Chloe...well...let's not cross that bridge shall we? I will give you a hint though...Stacie's not just looks...She's got-"

"Brains...I know Mitchel...She's in my advanced Chemistry class."

"Oh. Well that kinda explains how you get to ogle her outside of Bella's. So yeah not that I don't appreciate whatever this is...but I want to make sure Chloe is okay...so yeah if you don't mind-" Beca stopped herself when she saw Aubrey's reaction. Her face looked like she had been slapped. That was not a good sign.

"She made you come here didn't she?"

Aubrey only nodded. She couldn't speak nor look at the brunette.

"She regrets it."

"No! Beca! She-"

"Save it Posen. Please Just...go...I'll stay away. Don't worry. Whatever she wants. Don't try to help my love life Posen. If she doesn't want it I won't push."

"But-"

"I said go!"

Aubrey then got up and left. She felt bad for the brunette. She meant what she said though. About helping Beca and Chloe get together and about Stacie. She left Beca's dorm and trudged back into Chloe's and her apartment. She did what Chloe had asked but she also went behind her best friend's back by getting Beca to tell her exactly how she felt about her best friend. She was now determined to get them both together. Chloe could be thick headed sometimes but that was why she would be there for her. To help her get her head out of her arse.
