Time had ground to a screeching halt. The announcers voices filled the auditorium, praising the girls on a mind blowing performance. The cheers from the crowd were so loud they made you feel dizzy.

or maybe it was what was what you saw that made you feel so dizzy.

Cynthia rose went to meet the gaze of her Co - captain, but it was focused elsewhere. The once vibrant blue eyes were now dark. She followed their gaze off the stage. She saw where they were looking.

the audience.

Where Beca stood.

Kissing Jesse.

Cynthias eyes widened. thats not what i meant...this wasn't supposed to happen

by the time she looks back, Chloe is gone, all thats left is the backstage door, swinging back and forth.

No one else notices.

She runs. She runs and she doesn't know where. She runs and runs until her legs simply can't carry her anymore. She's well out of the building by now. the streetlights beat down as the traffic rushes by. She can't hear, she can't see, she can't breathe. She can only feel. She can feel her heart shatter. she can feel the pain coursing through her veins. She can feel herself getting lighter and lighter as she looses control. She can still picture the sight. her love, her one and only true love kissing someone else. not kissing her. The ultimate tragedy of unrequited love. they choose the wrong person. They don't choose you. The truth is, they never really loved you.

She screams into the night. Over and over as the tears stream down her face. People stare but she doesn't care. It's a temper tantrum and she knows it, but there's nothing else for her to do. She screams and cries and shakes so hard she throws up. Then She starts running again, but she can't tell where. Her eyes burn from the night air. Her mascara runs down into her mouth, but she doesn't stop it. She's nearly hit by a car and she wishes she was. It honks wildly but she barely hears it.

She stands and begs for it to hit her. She looks to the sky and cries out. "JUST STOP TAUNTING ME. YOU'VE BEEN DOING THIS FOR YEARS. JUST TAKE ME ALREADY." The skies open up and thunder echoes through the air. Maybe its a sign. Maybe its just mocking her. but she doesn't care. The car still honks, but she doesn't move. Instead she collapses once more. Another flash, another grumble. She can't tell the difference between tears and rain, between the color of the pavement and her aura. The car drives around her through a puddle, splashing water on her. She doesn't notice.

She rips of the bellas scarf from around her waist and clutches it tightly as she begins to run again. She wants to throw something but she can't let it go. The rain seeps through her clothes as lightening shoots across the sky. "HIT ME GODDAMIT!" It doesn't. It surrounds her, but never touches her. She just runs.

She ends up on a bridge. She leans on the edge, looking down to the water blow her. It's dark. So dark.

She places her hands on the edge and slowly lifts herself up. She looks out over the water. The Hines center is across from her, taunting her, teasing her. Begging her to jump.

and then...shes weightless.
