Luckily, by the time the rest of the Bellas made their way backstage, Chloe had managed to get her crying under control. Unfortunately, seeing Beca brought back the awful feeling in her heart again and she had to walk out of the room. She felt the tears come back to her eyes.

"I'll be right back." She turned and mumbled to Aubrey, and then quickly walked out of the doors. Beca started to walk towards the door. Cynthia Rose saw her and tried to stop her from going after her.

"I just want to make sure she's okay." Beca pushed right by the girl and walked down the hallway to the restrooms. Chloe was leaning over the sink wiping her eyes. The brunette rushed to her side, hugging her.

"Hey. What's wrong?" She turned herself away to face the wall. Beca was the first and the last person that she wanted to see.

"Nothing."

"Chloe. I realize I'm not one to talk when it comes to opening up to people, but you're my best friend. Talk to me." Chloe wiped her eyes again and bit down on her knuckle.

'Best friend'

"I guess it's just all pretty overwhelming and emotional. It was all so much at once."

"Yeah I know. All of that was pretty exciting, huh?" More like devastating.

"Yeah." Beca still didn't seem satisfied with how she was acting, but she tried to brighten the mood.

"Come on. We're all going out to celebrate. I think the Trebles are going to be there too." The fact that Chloe hadn't broken down in to an emotional mess yet was more than surprising to her. She most certainly didn't feel like celebrating after what had happened, but she most definitely didn't want to go if Jesse was going to be there. That would only make it more painful.

"I think I'm just going to head back to the room. I don't feel so good."

"Chloe…"

"Don't worry about me. Just. Real bad headache. I don't think drinking or partying is really what I need right now."

"Are you going to be okay by yourself? I can stay with you if you want." Chloe bit her lip hard enough that she could almost taste blood. She hoped it would hold back the tears. She practically forced a smile to play on her lips.

"I'll be fine. I'll see you later."

Beca walked back to the room with the rest of the Bellas. They all looked worried.

"Where's Red? We're about to leave." Amy asked.

"She's got a bad headache. She said she's just gonna go back to her room for the night." Beca said with a frown. Aubrey looked anxious. "I suggested staying behind with her. She said she would be fine alone for the night."

"I'm gonna go tell her we're leaving." Aubrey walked towards the door to the restrooms where Chloe was still leaning over the sink. She was doing her best to fix her makeup in the mirror, and she was wiping her face with cold paper towels to make her face less red. There was nothing more upsetting than the sight of her best friend hurting like this.

"Chloe, we're leaving. Come on, we'll drop you off at the hotel." She grabbed Chloe's shoulders and helped her as she nearly stumbled out of the door. They walked back outside to the bus and luckily none of the other Bellas wanted to talk to her, except of course, Beca. She looked sad when Chloe didn't sit next to her like she did on the way there, instead sitting in the seat in front of her and leaning her head against the window. She didn't feel like mentioning it though, so she just leaned forward and whispered in her ear gently.

"If you need me tonight, you don't hesitate to call me, okay? I'll be there as fast as possible, no matter what." Again, Chloe couldn't say anything. She felt the hot tears in her eyes and she didn't feel like making herself look like she was crying again. She just nodded and closed her eyes. When they reached the hotel again, Beca wanted to hug her, but she got up and off of the bus too fast for any of them to barely say bye. She just muttered a quick "thanks guys" and walked off towards the hotel. When Chloe finally reached her room, she didn't bother to change her clothes or take off her makeup. She only crawled in to bed and began bawling. Then she remembered that her and Beca had decided on sharing a bed together when they got to the hotel. That wasn't going to make her feel any better. She crawled over to one edge of the bed and cried for two hours before falling asleep.

When the Bellas got back at the hotel, they all separated into their rooms. Beca, Stacie and Aubrey went to the room that they shared with Chloe and got ready for bed. Stacie was immediately under the covers with her face buried in to the pillow. She didn't want to see Beca and Chloe in the same room together like this. Beca stood watching Chloe as she slept. Something had to be wrong. If the two shared a bed before, and Beca wasn't in the bed, Chloe usually slept with an arm draped over the empty side of the bed and her head almost in the middle of the two pillows. Tonight, Chloe was facing away from Beca's side of the bed, arms and legs tucked in to her body, and the comforter up to her chin. Beca wanted to crawl in to the bed and hold Chloe, but something inside of her scared her to do so, and she found herself standing in front of the bed frozen.

"She'll be fine. Just let her get through the night, and we'll be out of here in the morning. We need to get to bed." Aubrey was getting in the bed next to Stacie and reaching for the bedside lamp. Beca slowly got in to the bed, careful not to wake the sleeping girl next to her. She lied down on her side, barely able to see the back on Chloe in front of her, and she reached her hand out to slowly rub her back for a brief moment before folding her arms underneath her pillow and closing her eyes.

"Goodnight Chloe."
