Trigger warning for self-harm and suicidal themes.

Hey guys! I'm deeply sorry I haven't updated this sooner. Had a lot of school work to do but I've found myself free to write again! :) Just another answer to reviews, to the guest that made the comment about Jesse and also replied to my authors note; If you could make an account and PM me that'd be great, same goes for anyone else, feel free to send in any ideas or if you just want a chat and I'll reply as soon as I can!:) The last chapter was quite cute and fluffy so this one is quite the contrary. There will be more bechloefluffsoon enough, anyway I'll stop rambling. Please review, favourite and follow. I hope you enjoy! :)

P.S. I'm very guilty of typos, but I try to avoid them!

Chloe was woken by Aubrey urgently gripping her arm and shaking it. She managed to briefly look at her alarm clock for the time, it was 2am and she was confused as to why she was being woken up with such urgency.

"Chloe wake up! I think something's happened to Beca! You've got like 3 missed calls and god knows how many texts!" Aubrey said aggressively, not quite shouting due to the ungodly hour at which she was being woken. The possibility of anything happening the Beca made Chloe completely lose any fatigue she may have had. Without a word she desperately grabbed her phone off the side and looked at the screen. 3 missed calls. 9 unread messages. Chloe's heart sank as she unlocked her phone to view the texts.

Hey Chlo'... you awake?

Please say you're awake..

Chloe I need you..

Please Chloe.. Please text back..

I'm in apartment 3b in Baker hall, please come.. I need you here..

I'm sorry.. I must sound so pathetic right now. Fuck.

Don't worry about me Chlo' I'm fine.

I hope I didn't waste your time and wake you..

Chloe was getting dressed and ready to see Beca already, running round her room and gathering everything she would need for the night. Then she looked down at her phone to read the final message. She had to read it over and over. But it still wasn't sinking in.

You were amazing for the short time I knew you.. Thankyou.. Bye Chlo'.

Tears where glazing Chloe's eyes as she ran out of the house and got in her car, speeding towards Baker hall which was ten minutes down the road. The last text had been sent to Chloe only a few minutes before so she knew she still had time. She must have ran at least 3 red lights but she didn't care. The only thing she could concentrate on was Beca. As she came round the corner she spotted the large apartment building and skidded to a stop outside, getting out and locking the car as quickly as possible before bolting up the large staircase. Beca was on the second floor and the pain in Chloe's chest from the crying, the panic and the running was becoming unbearable. Once she reached the top, she steadied herself before finding Beca's door. Outside Beca's door Chloe found a lose key that seemed to have been placed there not dropped. The redhead took her chances and rammed the key in the lock, struggling to open it, when she managed to open the door she heard the lose clang of thin metal in a nearby room. The apartment was dimly lit by lamp light and there was a strong smell of alcohol.

Chloe looked around the apartment and she saw bright clean light coming from what must have been the bathroom, she ever so slowly approached the door, with thoughts flying through her head. She was okay a few hours ago. What happened? Was it me? How could this happen so fast? Why did she call me? What if I'd answered the call?Would this be different? What's wrong with Beca? Chloe was knocked from her thought process when she tripped over an empty bottle of gin. Oh shit. Chloe thought to herself. Beca had been drinking, and this was bad. Very, very bad.

"Beca?" Chloe said hesitantly. "Becs? You in there?" She said before slowly pushing the bathroom door further open. The brunette was curled in a ball, head buried in her knees with one lose arm falling to her side, covered in blood. Beca was crying hard, quivering with every sob. Chloe immediately knew what had happened. She slowly lowered herself to Beca's level and lightly held her shoulders. Beca shrank away from Chloe's hands.

"Beca its okay I'm here. I've got you." The redhead said which much more confidence than she actually possessed. "I'm gonna' help you get cleaned up okay?" Beca barely nodded in reply to Chloe. The redhead moved in closer to Beca and placed a light kiss in her head. She wasn't quite sure why she had to kiss her but she had to find some way of comforting her. She ran into the kitchen to find a first aid kit and when she returned a couple minutes later, she found Beca reaching for a razor blade on the floor about a meter away. Chloe grabbed it up off the floor, she was just about to speak when Beca starting murmuring something.

"thr- throw it aw- throw it away. Please." Beca said through the sobs and her barely conscious state. Chloe immediately binned the razor and then moved down to the small brunette to clean up her arm.

"Shit Beca. This is deep. We're gonna' have to take you to hospi-"

"No! No no no no no no. I am not going there! They'll lock me up and call me a physco. Please Chloe just help me, I won't do it again I promise, just don't tell anyone. I'm sorry." Beca was dissolving into hysteric tears. Her words were almost inaudible. Chloe nodded hesitantly in agreement and continued to clean up Beca's arm.

"Right this is going to sting, just hang in there okay?" Chloe said in a reassuring voice. She was training to be a doctor so she knew what she was doing. Beca knew this so the brunette put a thumb up to show she understood. She gritted her teeth as Chloe brushed the antiseptic wipe against her cut. Her touches where delicate and Beca was relieved she was here but god was it painful. When Chloe had finished cleaning the cut she placed a clean dressing on top and expertly tied a bandage on top of that. The redhead leant down and placed the lightest of kisses where the cut was, making Beca feel more reassured than she had ever felt. There was a silence until Chloe spoke with the quietest, most calming voice she could.

"Come on let's get you to bed." She said as she stood, still holding the brunettes hand. She had stopped crying now, and she was tired. Eventually Beca stood, there were no words as they made their way into the bedroom. Chloe helped Beca get changed, she couldn't help but notice the faint pink lines that overlapped across the smaller girls thighs, some looking older and some newer, she could tell that none where more recent than a few months though. Once Beca was changed, Chloe made her drink a glass of water to help with the hangover in the morning. Whilst Beca was drinking and getting into bed, Chloe moved out of the room to change into her usual nightwear. When she came back in, Beca was curled up on side of her large double bed, staring at the blank wall in front of her.

Without hesitation, Chloe got into the bed and shuffled behind Beca, placing her arm around the brunette's waist. They weren't together or anything, but she wanted to help Beca, make her feel safe, and that's exactly what Beca felt. Beca knew that if Chloe hadn't arrived, she would have kept going, until she had removed herself from the world, but now she was led in bed, being held and protected. For the first time in years, Beca felt truly safe.

"Thank you Chloe." Beca whispered. "Are you going to stay? You're not going to leave are you? I'm not going to wake up with you gone?" Her paranoia was setting in. Of course she's going to leave. She thinks you're freak. A fucked up little girl. She thought. Only to have her thoughts silenced by a light kiss on her shoulder.

"I'll never leave you okay? I'm here for you always." Chloe said quietly.

"Okay." Beca said in thought of what she was going to say next. "Look Chlo', I'm sor-"

"It's okay Beca. We'll talk about this all in the morning. Get some sleep okay?" Chloe interrupted. Beca nodded and closed her eyes to sleep, she wondered what she felt about this girl who had only met her a few days ago. She drifted off with Chloe's arms keeping her secure and safe.

Maybe what she thought was the end for her, was just the beginning of something much bigger.
