AN: Final chappy.

Chapter 7: Hurtful and happy truths

-moments after the end of the last chapter, beca pov-

They then went to eat, going to their usual pizza place. When they had all sat down and ordered Chloe looked up at Beca whom was listening to something Denise was talking about.

"Beca. Why do you look so exhausted and why do you seem thinner than you usually are?" Chloe asked and Beca stopped breathing for a second as everyone's attention turned to her and the group started to study her.

"Chloe's right Becs. You look like you haven't been eating and sleeping. Whats up with that?" Cynthia said and Beca sighed.

"As you know I used to do drugs." Beca said and everyone nodded before Chloe seemed to realize what she was about to say.

"Please tell me you didn't..." the red head pleaded and Beca just closed her eyes, not wanting to see the look on the girls face when she admitted it.

"I fell off the wagon and the entire first week of spring break I was high." Beca said, the whole table just stayed silent before Beca felt someone's hand connect with her face and looked up to see Chloe glaring at her. Beca just looked down before finishing her side of the story. "So now I can't sleep nor eat much and I can barely write my name when the shakes get bad enough. There is not a person that regrets this more than me since I was doing good, I didn't feel the urge anymore until everything went to hell because I was an idiot. And I'm sorry."

Beca felt someones hand on her shoulder and looked up to see Cynthia give her an understanding look and the african-american then gave her a hug. Aubrey was talking quietly to Chloe who looked like she was crying. Amy just gave Beca a hug as well.

"We will support you in getting you back on track. Becs. Do you have any drugs left?" Stacie asked, for once sounding serious and Beca nodded solemly.

"They are in my room, but I don't want them anymore because I got reminded how much of an idiot I am being." Beca replied as the pizzas were brought to them and Chloe and Aubrey sat back down, Chloe sitting across from Beca once more while Aubrey got the seat beside her.

"Beca. Are you going clean again?" Aubrey asked, since she hadn't heard the conversation earlier and Beca looked at her.

"Yes." Beca said and Aubrey studied her silently for a few moments.

"There are meetings for former drug addicts not far from here. My brother goes every friday. You should go with him." Chloe said, her voice sounding rough and Beca nodded slowly.

"I will...thanks Chloe." Beca said and the bella's continued asking her questions.

"How about we go over to your dorm room later and we throw the drugs out? Get rid of the trash and all that." Chloe suggested and Beca nodded before they finished eating and then left. Aubrey joining them for the cleaning up along with Cynthia, Stacie and Amy. They walked in complete silence and Beca opened the door to her room. Only to be grabbed harshly by someone and pushed up against a wall. She looked up to see Andrew looking murderous and knew he must have found her drugs. Looking over his shoulder at her bed she got confirmation of that as the stash was on the bed.

"What the hell Mitchell, weren't you clean?!" Andrew yelled and Beca flinched at the anger in his voice.

"I was- I am Andrew. I just fell off the wagon for awhile during spring break and I'm not doing it again. I haven't used anything for a week now." Beca said and she saw the girls looking at them with an worried look on their faces except for Chloe whom just looked indifferently at the stash on her bed.

Andrew then let go of her and pointed to the stash. "Prove it by getting rid of that. The old Beca, the one that went to jail would bury it and then crash into it once things turned to hard. If you want to show you have changed, then come with us to the beach and burn it." The boy said and Beca raised her eyebrow before nodding slowly.

"Fine." Beca said when it was obvious he wasn't going to take her nod as an answer. They then took the stash and put it onto a bag before leaving, walking to a nearby beach. Beca was nervous since she could feel the desire for a dose and it would not be easy to burn the stash but she knew she had to do it. She felt someone take her hand and looked over at Chloe whom was the culprit but the red head was just staring forward as they walked.

Beca just sighed before pulling her hand out of the red heads grasp before turning back to looking forward as they arrived at the beach. Andrew gathered some firewood for a fire that would be big enough to burn the stash quickly, they did not want the police finding out about this after all. Beca then started trying to start a fire with matches but her hands were shaking rather badly due to her withdrawal.

Chloe seemed to notice this and helped her out. Once the fire was big enough Beca took out the stash and threw it on before she could hesitate. Her friends stared at her and Andrew seemed surprised that she had actually done it. She just stood up straight and glared lightly at him.

"Believe it now?" Beca asked and the boy smiled before nodding.

"But now I wonder what caused this change. You didn't even hesitate." Andrew replied, causing Beca to roll her eyes at him.

Beca turned to Chloe but it was obvious she was still talking to Andrew when she said. "I fell in love and then got my heart broken." She then turned around and left. Not waiting around for the others.

-Chloe's pov-

Chloe watched the girl leave with a sinking feeling in her stomach. Beca hadn't exactly been unkind to her the whole day but she had been indifferent to her, almost cold. It reminded her of how the girl had been when they first met. After putting out the fire they headed back, Andrew flirting shamelessly with Aubrey. Andrew and the others then left Chloe alone and the red head headed up to Beca's dorm room to speak with her.

Beca answered the door after the first knock and let her in though she did not look particularly happy to see her there.

"Beca. I know you are hurt. But how dare you ignore me the whole time during spring break and then act like I'm the only one at fault here? I called, texted and tried everything short of coming down here to apologize." Chloe said, glaring lightly at the brunette who just sighed.

"I'm not putting all the blame on you. I didn't want to talk to you while I was high. After I saw your text explaining what happened I stopped using drugs. After that I couldn't bring myself to talk to you out of shame. And when I have you before me again I am scared of what you are thinking. So I push you away."

"Beca. The only thing I am thinking is that I want to help you. I want to bring back the girl you were before this happened to us. I have been feeling guilty all spring break because of how spineless I was in defending you against Aubrey. I know I should have stood by you and have your back. And I'm terribly sorry I didn't."

"You are forgiven. But I want to take things slow from now on. We got in too deep too fast last time. And I can't afford to get hurt again. And besides, you deserve better than me pushing you away all the time. I have to work through that." Beca said after a moment of silence and Chloe felt her heart break a little at that but she just nodded, accepting the girls terms.

"I should go. We have practice early tomorrow." Chloe said, making a move to leave when she felt the brunette grab her hand.

"Can't you stay? I miss my cuddly buddy." Beca asked, looking her in the eyes and the red head felt her resolve break and she nodded, sending a quick text to Aubrey to let her know she was staying with the brunette that night.

They then changed into night clothes and got in bed, Beca taking the part of big spoon with the red head and Chloe fell asleep with a small smile on her face.

-Beca's pov, 2 weeks later.-

Beca smirked as she stood once more in the booth at Timber, this time with the curtain open and saw the shock on her friends and favorite red head's face as they saw her Deejaying. After she finished playing she walked down to join them in having fun. She was bombarded with questions from them about her being the DJ as she got some water to drink.

"Beca what the hell I didn't know you were a DJ at this club" Cynthia said and before Beca could reply she was bombarded with more questions and she tried to answer them calmly. She saw Chloe giving her an amused look which she returned before drinking the rest of her water and told the girls to follow her outside for some fresh air.

She was ambushed by a blond woman who flirted shamelessly with her for a few minutes and told her to come find her for some fun later. Beca just nodded dumbly as she noticed Chloe shooting the woman a murderous look and she just grabbed the girls hand and led her outside before leaning against a wall breathing in deep as the rest of the Bella's followed them.

"So. Beca. How come you were working as a DJ tonight?" Aubrey asked, one arm around Andrew who was beaming at her. The two had gotten together the night that Beca burned the rest of her stash and had been going strong ever since, causing Beca to be insanely happy for her friend despite it being Aubrey that was with him.

"Luke, my boss at the radio station offered me a gig here the night I shot shot since he knew I mix tapes in my free time. He is friends with the manager of this club. It's good money and I was offered a position every other Saturday for 5k per hour. I have been doing this ever since. The pay went up to 8k per hour too." Beca replied and she got showered with congratulations and good job for a few minutes.

"That is great Bec. But you will be buying drinks the rest of the year." Andrew said, smirking and Beca just raised her eyebrow at him as the girls around them cheered.

"what makes you think that?" Beca asked and everyone around her looked at her in shock and she could tell they were wondering if she was really that stingy with her money.

"You have the cash..." Andrew said, a little unsure.

"No I don't. It's all locked up in a bank." Beca said and the boy looked at her like she had grown a second head.

"Why?"

"Because I want to be able to move to L.A."

"Oh yeah. Are you still going at the end of the year?"

"No. You guys are stuck with me until I graduate. I will be declaring my major next year, gonna take music production and business." Beca said and she felt someone grab her in a tight hug from behind at that and she looked over her shoulder to see Chloe hiding her face in her shoulder.

"That's good B. Then we can conquer the ICCA's four years in a row." Cynthia said and Beca smirked at the girl and nodded. They would definitely be doing that. Beca turned around in Chloe's arms after awhile of talking with the bella's and the girls went inside to give them some privacy.

"Chlo..." Beca said gently and the girl looked up from her shoulder at that, her eyes a little red from crying. "What is wrong?"

"I expected to lose you at the end of the year. I thought you would leave me to go to L.A after everything that has happened. So when you said you were staying... I guess I just got a little overwhelmed with relief."

"I would never leave you Chlo. We have our rough patches like all couples do. I will admit I considered it, but only until I got you back into my life. My life is too empty if you aren't around Chlo. I would not make it in L.A, without you there. And while we are currently on a break then I believe that we will be fine when I get back to normal."

"I know. I feel the same way. I'm just being stupid."

"No you aren't." Beca said sternly and the red head looked her in the eyes at that. "This is normal Chlo. I would be more worried if you weren't affected by everything. That you were overwhelmed by the news I was staying just shows me that you care enough to want me to stay. So don't think you are being stupid." Beca said and kissed the tip of the girls nose. "Now lets go inside and have fun. I will buy you drinks the rest of the night." Beca said and the girl nodded before they headed inside.

-the finals, Beca's pov-

Beca gnawed at her lip as they waited for their time to go on stage. The building was full of people that night and Beca saw Andrew, her father, step-mother, mother and Aubrey's father talking in one of the rows, her mother clearly being angry at seeing Ethan again. Said man just looked at her with a face that showed how disgusted with her he was. Aubrey stood beside her and was looking at the same scene as her, also gnawing her lip. The other bella's just studied the two girls with worried looks on their faces.

"Beca. I know we haven't been much of friends most of the year." Aubrey said, looking at Beca who looked at her in shock. "But I have been thinking. We are kind of step-sisters despite Susan disowning you. And I think that... no matter how tonight goes that I would like to have the honor of calling you my sister."

Beca gaped at the girl at that, not believing her ears before Chloe cleared her throat from beside her, snapping her out of the shock. "I would be honored to call you my sister Aubrey. But that means I will have to have the hurt-my-sister-and-you-will-die talk with Andrew..."

"True." Aubrey said as she pulled Beca into a hug, shocking the little DJ who just awkwardly hugged her back. The bella's all cheered at that while Beca just scratched the back of her neck with an awkward smile on her face along with Aubrey.

"So. Shall we go and kick some treble ass?" Cynthia asked, smiling and Beca just nodded before taking a deep breath. The bella's all looked different, gone were the up-tight flight attendant clothing and skirts and instead the girls looked more wild with their hair down and more free style clothing. (an: you know how they are in the movie...)

"We shall." Beca said as they walked out onto the stage as the trebles vacated it. She heard the crowd gasp in shock at their new looks and saw her mother sneer in disgust as they took up their positions. Beca blew the pitch pipe and counted down before Aubrey and Chloe began to say price tag with them slowly joining in. The crowd went wild as they began to up the speed with Cynthia taking the lead. They then switched over to don't you forget about me and Beca took the lead, walking in between the girls who formed a line and she saw Jesse look up at her with a smile, obviously realizing she was trying to apologize to him.

After that they all sang together give me everything tonight and Chloe hit the low note she had gotten from her nodes surgery, smiling at Beca all the while as they continued to sing. They switched over to Cynthia rapping a part of the song and Beca saw Aubrey taking off her jacket like Amy had done in the regionals and then they switched to Amy singing. Then it was Beca's turn again and the other girls all joined their voices with hers and then it was over and the crowd went wild.

Andrew ran up onto the stage as the Bella's laughed and grabbed Aubrey in a huge hug before kissing the blond and Beca grabbed Chloe who stared at her in shock until Beca pressed their lips together with a smile. The red head returned the kiss with passion after a moment of shock and she heard the crowd and Bella's wolf whistle as they parted. She saw Cynthia and Denise kissing as well and smiled at the girl finally getting the girl back. The bella's then vacated the stage and she saw Jesse waiting for her and the boy gave her a friendly hug before saying he forgave her and congratulated her on doing well. That was when her mother came over with Aubrey's father and Beca's father and step-mother. The bella's all took their positions beside Beca and Aubrey who gave her a reassuring smile.

"Aubrey. What the hell was that monstrosity?" Susan hissed out and said girl flinched lightly so Beca grabbed her hand and squeezed it once to reassure her.

"That was the Bella's winning the ICCA's for the first time. All thanks to Beca." Aubrey replied, looking at Beca who glared at Susan who was now murdering her with her eyes.

"Figures she would taint your mind with bullshit like this. I knew I should have done something about you being here Beca. I should have stopped this from happening. The old performance was brilliant." Susan hissed and Beca just raised her eyebrow at that.

"Only you thinks so Susan. The crowd loved our performance." Beca replied coldly and the woman glared even harder if that was possible.

"Scum. That's what you are. I recognize the way you look tired and starved Beca. Did we start using again? Have you perhaps gotten Aubrey and the rest of the girls into your shit too like you did with Andrew?" Susan said and Beca glared at the woman at that, clenching her fists at her sides. "You just ruin lives Beca. That's all you have done since the day you were born. You ruined my life and yet you get it all perfect and happy. But no more. I will end you tonight." Susan said as she took out a pistol from her purse and aimed the gun at her daughter before pulling the trigger twice before anyone could react.

Beca felt one bullet enter her stomach and go out her back and hoped no one had been behind her. As she stared in shock at the woman in front of her as all the noise in the room went out being replaced with white noise as she felt the other bullet enter her chest. She saw Ethan knock Susan out and take the pistol out of her hands as Nathaniel stared in shock and she felt Aubrey and Chloe grab at her as she fell to her knees, her wound bleeding heavily. Andrew came in front of her, talking on a phone as Jesse joined him and it was obvious they were trying to ask her if she was alright.

She felt someone press something to her wound on both sides and saw Chloe crying beside her and the Bella's were all going crazy along with everyone around them. Beca's hearing tuned in as she looked up at the lights above her.

"Chlo.. I'm...sorry. I love you." Beca said quietly as she started to bleed from the mouth and she felt the girl tense beside her as she saw Andrew go from panicked to him being obviously terrified as paramedics rushed to them and started to try and help her as she passed out.

-Chloe's pov-

Chloe was pulled gently away from Beca as the paramedics started to work on her along with Aubrey who was crying. Andrew looked terrified and so she knew the wounds were bad if he was that worried. The paramedics were barking out information that she held no understanding of as the police rushed in and they then lifted Beca onto a stretcher and started to run with her outside after putting something on the wound to stop external bleeding. Ethan followed them and the Bella's all rushed out to take cabs to the hospital that the girl would be taken to. The police in the meantime arrested Susan whom was waking up slowly.

Chloe just rushed to the hospital with the rest of them and hoped her girlfriend would survive. When they arrived they were forced to wait in the waiting room as the doctors worked on the girl. Chloe simply sat in a chair and stared forward while the others either sat down or paced around, shooting worried looks or tensing every time someone came into the waiting room to get someone and eventually they were the only people there. Hours later they were joined by a doctor and a nurse.

"Those here for Beca Mitchell?" The doctor said, looking serious. When everyone in the room stood up at attention he looked confused for a moment before clearing his throat as Ethan came forward, claiming to be her father and Chloe went forward as well to hear what was said with Aubrey.

"It was a close call and we lost her a few times but we managed to stop the internal bleeding and while she is in critical condition and unconscious then we have faith she will be alright. The bullet that went into her chest thankfully escaped the heart but went into her lungs causing the lungs to collapse. The next few hours will decide whether she makes it or not." The doctor said before apologizing that he couldn't do much more and leaving with the nurse in tow.

They were offered to go to the hotel after that by Ethan but they all refused, wanting to be there in case something happened and Ethan looked proud at that. Obviously happy that Beca had so many friends that cared deeply for her. Everyone just sat around for the next few hours until a nurse came up and offered for three people to go see her. Chloe, Andrew and Ethan went in at first. But when Ethan saw his daughter was at least alive he fetched Aubrey to allow her to be in the room instead. Knowing they got closer through the year.

The three of them just sat in chairs on one side of the bed and stared at the girl in silence. Chloe having grabbed one of the small DJ's hands and was playing with it in worry. They got startled the few times the machines around the small girl starting beeping irregularly and a nurse came into the room to check on her but she remained stable the whole night. Eventually they fell asleep while watching over the girl, Chloe never letting go of the girls hand.

-Beca's pov, 2 weeks later-

Beca woke up slowly, blinking due to the brightness of the room. She sat up slowly in the bed she was in and breathed slowly and shallowly due to feeling sore in her chest area. She saw she had bandages wrapped around her whole torso and tried to clear her head to remember what had happened. When she remembered she growled low to herself before coughing due to the dryness of her throat. She saw a glass of water beside her and grabbed it to take a sip before taking in her surroundings.

She was alone in the room, and the city outside her window was obviously not Atlanta so she guessed she was still in New york where the finals had taken place. Which meant that her friends were all back in Barden. She heard a gasp come from the door and saw a nurse rush out of the room and just raised her eyebrow as a doctor ran in a minute later.

"It is good to finally see you awake Beca. You gave us quite a scare there." The doctor said before introducing himself as Dr. Smith.

"So how long have I been out? And where is everybody?"

"Two weeks. Your friends mostly left the day after you arrived and we knew you were going to make it but a red headed girl, a blond haired girl and a guy with blond hair all stayed here until the weekend when your father basically kicked them out since they had school to worry about. He himself has gone as well but is being contacted right now so he can come get you." Dr. Smith said and Beca just nodded slowly.

"So I'm free to go?"

"Yeah. But you will have to do some rehabilitation for your lungs and you will have to take it easy. You took a lot of damage. You were critical for awhile and it was a long shot that you would survive."

"what of the woman that did this to me?"

"She has been arrested and charged with attempted murder the last I heard. She is pleading insanity."

"I can imagine..." Beca muttered at that and then the doctor just said he would like to run a few tests just to be sure she was fine. After getting her agreement he quickly ran his tests, having her do a few things before obviously being satisfied. He then left and a nurse helped her get dressed into clothing her father had left for her when he was there last before bringing her some paperwork she needed to fill out.

After filling everything out she just stayed in the room. When she heard her father couldn't get her until the next week she asked if it was fine if she took a plane back or something. When the doctors agreed if she was careful. She just got herself tickets back home by getting to use a computer in the reception and then took a cab to the airport and flew home 2 hours later, being careful to not strain her injuries. She then caught a cab to campus.

When she arrived at campus it was 10pm. She just walked slowly to her dorm room and took as deep of a breath as she could before unlocking the door and entering. What she saw shocked her, the room was full of flowers and get well cards or gifts. She couldn't see Andrew anywhere and sighed a little at that as she sat down on her bed which actually looked like someone had slept in it while she was away.

She had just taken out her phone for the first time that day and was plugging it in to charge it when she heard someone open the door to the room and turned around only to see Andrew walk into the room, looking exhausted and worried. When he saw her he froze and Beca could see he was having a hard time believing his eyes.

"Hey Andrew."

"B-Beca?" the boy stuttered out, his eyes filling up with tears as it dawned on him that she was actually in front of him.

"Yeah. Aren't you going to come over here and give me a hug you big oaf?" Beca said smiling as she stood up and the boy let out a choked sob and walked up to her before giving her a gentle hug, being mindful of her injuries and Beca just wrapped her arms around the boy as well.

"W-when did you wake up? When did you get back? How did you get back? We have been so worried, Chloe has-"

"I know. I woke up this morning feeling fine. Well as fine as I can be and got a clear bill from the doctors so I caught a plane from New york. I arrived just a few minutes ago. My phone was dead and I didn't have my charger, otherwise I would have called." Beca said and the boy just let go of her slowly before giving her a huge smile.

"The others are going to be so happy to hear you are awake and back Beca. Especially Chloe and Aubrey. We have all been like zombies around campus. I should give them a call." Andrew said as he took out his phone. Beca just stopped him before sighing gently.

"Can you please leave it for tomorrow? I am exhausted after today and seeing everyone again will be tiring and stressful so I would like to take tonight to just rest before I meet them all tomorrow." Beca said and the boy just nodded before giving her another hug and kissing the top of her head.

"I have missed you. When Susan shot you I wanted nothing more than to kill her but I knew that was not what you would have wanted. According to Chloe's dad then she will probably face some time in jail if she isn't sent to the nearest asylum. Either way he doubts we will see her again."

"That is good news." Beca said smiling a little and they spent the next hour going over what had been going on with the Bella's since she had been shot. She learned that until yesterday Aubrey and Chloe had been staying in her room with Andrew and Chloe had slept every night in her bed and barely ever left it except to go to class since Aubrey forced her to. The red head was apparently extremely worried for her and Beca wanted badly in her heart for the boy to call the girl but knew that meeting her was not a good idea at the moment. So after she was all caught up on happenings around campus they went to sleep.

The next morning Beca was delivered some meds by her father who gave her a hug and a smile in relief that she was back safe. She took in some painkillers and the antibiotics before nodding to Andrew. He summoned the Bella's to his room at that, all of them minus Aubrey and Chloe since Beca wanted to get the others out of the way before facing her sister and girlfriend. He didn't tell them why he was summoning them, just that they should come see him. So when the girls all arrived at the same time, having been hanging out obviously they were shocked to see Beca sitting on her bed.

"Hey guys. Long time no see." Beca said, her signature smirk in place and the girls all let out happy squeals at that and ran to her before Andrew stopped them and told them to go in one at a time and gently since she wasn't fully healed. Fat amy was first and the girl swept her up into a hug with tears in her eyes.

"I knew you would come back. You are after all even tougher than me, the toughest thing in Tazmania with thumbs." Amy said as she released her and the rest of the girls swept her into their arms one by one. Cynthia and Stacie hugging her the longest.

"Of course I would return. I couldn't leave you guys after a win like that." Beca said and they all just joked around after that for a bit before all of them left since they had classes. Beca just laid down on her bed heavily, being tired after the emotional flow. She heard Andrew speaking softly on the phone with Aubrey and saw him give her a questioning look, silently asking if he could tell her she was back, she just motioned for him to place the blond on speaker.

"Aubrey, I got news." Andrew said and Beca could suddenly hear Aubrey's voice as he put the phone on speaker.

"What news? What's going on Andrew?"

"Is Chloe with you?"

"Yeah, we are getting coffee and then coming to your room. What news Andrew? Did you hear something about Beca? Has she awoken?"

"I did more than wake up Sis. I'm back in Barden." Beca suddenly spoke up and the other side of the line went silent as they heard the blond drop the phone in shock.

"B-Beca?! When the hell did you get back? Hold on we are coming over right now!" Aubrey said as she picked up her phone and then the line went dead.

Five minutes later there was a knock on the door and Andrew unlocked it, only for it to fly open as Aubrey and Chloe practically ran into the room and saw her sitting up slowly on the bed. The next thing she knew was her being picked up in a tight hug by a flash of red and let out a small pained yelp as she was squeezed. The red head jumped back at that before freaking out only for Beca to pull her into a gentle hug as Aubrey hugged her as well, gently.

"It's ok Chlo. You just squeezed a little to tightly. I'm still injured. But I'm alright, I'm here. And I'm not going anywhere. I promise." Beca said in order to calm the girl down.

"God I have missed your annoying little ass Beca. You have no idea how worried all of us were when you got shot." Aubrey said, glaring lightly at her.

"I had no idea my ass was little and annoying... would you like me to tell it to stop?" Beca said sarcastically and the blond slapped her shoulder harshly but said nothing as she went over to Andrew and gave him a kiss.

"She's definitely still the same irritating idiot." Aubrey said to the boy like they were alone in the room and Beca just rolled her eyes before releasing Chloe from their hug before laying down on the bed with the red head beside her. The red head just laid her head on her chest above her heart.

Aubrey and Andrew then left the room to give them some privacy. The moment they left Beca managed to pull the girl higher and kissed her lightly.

"I missed you." Chloe said almost so quietly that Beca didn't hear but the brunette just smiled sadly before leaning in for another kiss.

"I know. And the 24 hours I have been awake I have missed you like crazy. I wanted so badly to have Andrew call you when he came home last night but I knew I was too tired and too sore to be able to talk to you then."

"I wish you had. I would have respected that you were tired Beca. I'm not an idiot. I know you nearly died, which is why I stayed with you until your dad forced me to go home along with Aubrey and Andrew." Chloe said to her, sitting up with a frown on her face.

"I know Chlo. And while I would have loved to have you by the side of my bed or in it when I woke up then my dad was right to do that. You are graduating. But let's not fight over this. I made my decision last night out of love and care. Not anything else that might be flashing through your beautiful mind Beale."

"Alright. But you are not off the hook until you take me out on a date."

"Agreed." Beca said, smiling lightly while the red head just laid back down and snuggled lightly into her chest before falling asleep.

-10 years later-

Beca Mitchell smiled as she watched her soon to be wife walk down the aisle towards her, led by her father. Chloe was stunning in a white dress with a veil over her head and a beaming smile on her face. Andrew was standing beside her with a huge ass smile on his face as he kept sneaking glances at his own wife who was Chloe's maid of honor while he was Beca's best man. All of the Bella's were Chloe's bridesmaids or Beca's ''groomsmen''.

Beca was by now a world famous DJ and Chloe was her manager, taking care of the law side of running a record label. The bella's and Andrew all worked at the label so they stuck together throughout the years.

When Chloe reached Beca and the priest and the man started the ceremony Beca smiled at her soon to be wife, happiness shining in her eyes. After both of them said I Do and shared their first kiss as a wife and wife they headed to the celebration. Partying most of the night away and then headed to a honeymoon in Rome, Italy. After arriving at the hotel suite Beca saw her wife out on the balcony, looking over the city so she walked up to her wife and wrapped her arms around her waist.

"What are you thinking about Ms. Mitchell." Beca asked, kissing the shoulder of the red head who smiled before turning around.

"Just about how lucky I am to have walked in on your shower. Twice." Chloe said, kissing her gently and Beca just smiled at the memory.

"Yeah. It was major awkward. But I'm kind of glad you did." Beca said and then smirked. "I got to see that rocking hot body of yours underneath all these clothes."

"Rocking hot eh?"

"Super hot. I just can't believe that you were an a capella dork."

"Says the other a capella dork. You led the Bella's to four ICCA wins. No one has ever managed to do that before." Chloe said as she led Beca into their hotel suite and started to undress herself and Beca.

"Well. I had this foxy red head come and convince me to become a dork. She had this way of doing that. It was quite scary." Beca said as she laid the red head on the bed and kissed her. "But I ended up falling in love with her and she saved me from my demons."

"Oh really. Well aint she lucky." Chloe said and then she tangled her hands in Beca's hair. "Now shut up about this foxy red head and show me how much you love me."

"As you wish, Ms. Mitchell." Beca said as she leaned down to give her wife a passionate kiss. She was finally free from her prison in that moment, and she was no longer a prisoner.
