"I don't want your help moving in, so just leave." Dr. Mitchell stopped two steps into his youngest daughter's dorm. A look of disappointment crossed his face and he hesitated before shutting the door behind him. Jaiden's roommate hadn't showed up yet, so he figured that now was the best time he was going to get to talk to her.

"Come on honey, please don't be like this. I didn't know, and if I had, you know I would have stopped it-"

"Seriously, why are you doing this? I'm not sure if Beca told you or not, but her little apology plan didn't work either. I'm not here to get closer to you two. I'm here because Mom's poor and this was the only way I could go to college." The 18 year old interrupted, continuing to pull clothes out of her suitcase and shoving them into her new dresser drawers. Her father opened his mouth to respond and then paused, unsure he could say anything that wouldn't make the whole situation worse.

"I see. Well, glad I could be of some sort of help to you. Hopefully I'll see you around campus." He muttered finally. Jaiden didn't respond, just continued to unpack her belongings. Dr. Mitchell sighed before reluctantly walking out of his daughter's dorm.

Jaiden spent the rest of her evening unpacking her suitcase and becoming slightly acquainted with her roommate. And her roommate's boyfriend. The two had been making out since she had moved in, and Jaiden was beginning to think she wasn't going to get much sleep that night. Just as she was beginning to consider sleeping in the dorm lobby, there was a knock at the door. Praying that it wasn't her father again, Jaiden stood up and opened it.

"Hi!" Jaiden suddenly found herself face to face with the redhead who had wrecked into her at the beginning of the summer. The freshman frowned and glanced around the hallway, looking for her sister.

"Seriously, just tell Beca I don't want to see her-"

"Beca's not here." Chloe interrupted, gesturing vaguely to the hallway behind her. Jaiden turned her eyes back onto the redhead and stared at her in confusion.

"Well then why are you?"

"It's your first year. And by the looks of it," Chloe peered through the doorway and eyed the couple making out on one of the dorm's beds, "you'd rather get out of your dorm than stay and watch those two suck face. So let me give you a little tour."

Jaiden sighed before reluctantly grabbing her wallet and walking out of her dorm room. Chloe couldn't hide a tiny triumphant grin from her face as she led the 18 year old down the hall.

"So what made you want to come to Barden?" Jaiden rolled her eyes at the question.

"It was the only place I could get in for free. Why are you so intent on showing me around the campus?"

"I feel bad for hitting your car. And even though you two don't talk, you're still my girlfriend's sister, so I'd like to get to know you."

"Ah. So this is an "I feel guilty about hitting your car and the fact that you have family problems" tour. My favorite." Jaiden said dryly. She and Chloe stepped out of the dorm building and into the late August sunlight. Students bustled around them, trying to finish the last of their unpacking.

"I guess if you want to call it that, you can."

"Well since you finally admitted the reasons you're doing this, I'm going to say thanks, but no thanks. I'll figure out my way around." Jaiden said politely. The older girl sighed in annoyance and grabbed her arm before she could walk away.

"Then I'm taking you out for a coffee. An "I'm sorry for trying to take you on a tour because I felt guilty" coffee." She chuckled. Jaiden hesitated for a second before giving in and nodding. The redhead grinned triumphantly and began to lead the freshman towards the on campus Starbucks.

"Chloe and Jaiden!" The 19 year old stood up as her name and the girl she was being borderline harassed by's name were called. She grabbed the two cups from the front counter and nodded at the barista before returning to their table. The brunette glared across the café in annoyance as another amateur singer began to take advantage of the "Open Mic Night" that the employees had so expertly planned on move-in day.

"Somehow they always manage to spell the names wrong." Jaiden muttered, setting the two coffees down and taking her seat across from Chloe. Both of them winced as the current participant began to sing far too closely to the microphone.

"Somehow they always manage to plan these on the worst nights." Chloe laughed.

"The out of tune guitar is a really nice touch. I have to say, I think that your tour might have been less painful than this." She admitted. Chloe was about to reply when her phone went off. The redhead gave her companion an apologetic glance and answered it.

"Beca, hi….no, I'm on campus….I'm really busy right now, can we meet up later?...Okay, yeah, I'll be there then…hey, I love you…bye babe." The phone call was over within 30 seconds and Jaiden stared at Chloe expectantly after she had hung up.

"Have somewhere to be?" She asked.

"Later tonight, yes. Luckily for you, I have enough time to finish our coffee." Chloe assured her.

"So, how did you two start dating? Did she bribe you originally or?"

"I actually walked in on her while she was showering and I found out she could sing, so I made her audition for the Barden Bellas-"

"Whoa, wait, the what?" Jaiden interjected.

"The Barden Bellas. We're the only all-girl acapella group on campus and we're amazing. Anyways, I made her audition and at first she was totally into this guy from a different group, but I won her over in the end." Chloe grinned triumphantly. Jaiden stared at her in disbelief.

"Are you serious? Like that's actually how you met?" Chloe nodded and sighed in relief as the terrible cover of Wonderwall finally ended.

"And next up is Beca Mitchell? You still out there Beca?" Jaiden froze as the host for the night announced her sister's name. She shot a glance at Chloe, who looked just as surprised.

"Straight up, did you plan this?" The brunette demanded, grabbing her cup of coffee and standing up. Chloe stood up as well and shook her head immediately.

"Jaiden, I swear I didn't. But please just stay. I'm not going to ask you to talk to her or anything, but just watch her sing." Chloe begged, catching Jaiden by the wrist before she should leave the café. An irritated sigh escaped the younger girl's lips and she sat down reluctantly.

Sorry for the wait, I've been really busy. Feel free to tell me what you think.
