A/N: Because yes, there's going to be a kiss… maybe a lot? Just not at the end of this chapter, so sorry about that if I even ended up building your hopes up.

Also, I found some extra time that I squished in writing this chapter so I hope you guys like it. Thanks so much for all the positive feedback! You guys are awesome! Seriously though, your reviews are what gets me going to definitely become a better writer :D

Oh, and Jesse is sort of stupid Kyle's version? I have it in my head that Kyle is actually nicer than jerk version Jesse but he can be just as much of an ass…

…we'll see when we get there ;)

Anyways, here's Chloe's chapter.

We'll have Stacie next then Aubrey to switch things up a bit. So yeah, expect some Staubrey moments…

I don't own pitch perfect.

Did Chloe know?

A part of her always did.

She came back that following summer only to find that the girl she promised to marry had moved away.

And they never saw each other again.

She didn't even hear from or about her again.

Not until she heard Beca's first mix on the radio.

Did she wonder if it was the same Beca she met ages ago?

She couldn't remember her last name. But when she saw a picture of the then increasingly popular DJ, there was a part of her that told her it was her.

The girl who's stolen her heart.

And forgot to even let her know.

Didn't even bother returning it to her.

But Beca was a star, how could Chloe even dare and dream but reach her?

She held her once, but time had passed.

Time had changed.

And she had to move on.

That's why Chloe dated.

That's how she ended up being with Jesse.

Jesse who was always sweet when she's around, who would be dependable on dates, on anniversary and gifts, who was a hard worker and beloved by her parents.

Even though she knew something was missing.

More than the fact that he and Aubrey hated each other.

And that he kept messing with Bellas heads when it came to competitions – he was incredibly competitive, he hated to lose.

But Chloe could feel, their relationship was convenient.

Safe and secure.

A sure thing.

And Beca was busy chasing away fame and fortune… and apparently women.

To try and chose Beca would meant taking great risks.

And what if she didn't even remember her?

Yes, Beca was a shooting star Chloe wished upon once.

She made her wish come true, if only very briefly, and then it was time to go.

Still Chloe knew she loved her.

And she never did stop loving her.

It was so silly, so stupid to think. They knew each other for three weeks…

…but it felt like they've known each other for lifetimes.

So when Aubrey told her about getting Beca Mitchell as the DJ for her wedding – and apparently Beca was a good friend of hers, how did she not know this any sooner? – Chloe was off to the moon.

The magic, the butterflies, that incredible high, they all came rushing back.

Yeah, it was silly and stupid.

She didn't know for sure it was the same person, the little girl Beca and the famous music producer and DJ extraordinaire Beca.

Not until they actually met.

Because Chloe could never forget those steely and stormy blue eyes reflecting the fire burning deep within her.

'Cause isn't the blue core of the flame hotter?

And she didn't even know why she was pushing, knowing that she could still end up being wrong, knowing that Beca had probably forgotten her.

She didn't even have the heart to tell Aubrey anything about it; that Beca was the girl she talked about always, like she's known her longer than she's known Aubrey.

It wasn't until Beca started talking about the girl she met when she was younger.

That was when things finally really hit her.

While her heart was thumping loudly against her chest, threating to burst.

In all those years, all this time, she was in love with Beca.

She fell for her when she was younger, with all her childhood innocence of the world.

Even when she wasn't sure after they met again, she started falling for her – all over again – right off the bat.

And falling for her never ends.

Because falling for Beca was so simple and easy.

Like a giant wave crashing against Chloe, taking her over, swallowing her whole, but instead of drowning she found that she could breathe again.

After a long time of just merely struggling to gasp for air.

Yeah, falling for Beca was so easy.

So natural.

And so different from how it was with Jesse.

Chloe had no idea why she ran, and how she found herself standing outside Aubrey's door.

But as soon as the blonde opened to answer the door, Chloe was sure about the first thing she said.

"You didn't tell me."

Chloe stormed in, past a surprised and confused Aubrey. It wasn't late that night yet but Chloe had been wondering for a good few hours as her thoughts took hold of her.

Because all her thoughts were scattered and constantly jumping between Beca and Jesse, between all that she ever wanted and what she already had.

But at this moment all she could think of was why Aubrey didn't tell her what she knew, if she knew anything at all.

"Didn't tell you what?" Aubrey asked for the second time but Chloe totally missed hearing it the first time.

Chloe wanted to know if she was mad or hurt or sad that Aubrey might have kept this from her. She settled for trying to understand and process the situation first, after all, Aubrey's always done the same with her.

"Where's Stacie?" Chloe asked confused as to the lack of the brilliant scientist in the household.

But it only worried Aubrey a little more because clearly the redhead was a little spaced out. Aubrey knew Chloe only too well, and she could tell that Chloe was thinking a hundred different thoughts at the same time.

Which was bad.

"Work. Chloe, you're shivering, and were you crying? What's wrong?" Aubrey asked, helping Chloe over to the couch, Chloe laying her head down on Aubrey's shoulder while the blonde held her best friend.

"You're her best friend Bree, how could you not know."

"What on earth are we talking about here Chloe?"

"Beca."

"Oh."

"Oh?"

Aubrey nodded slowly. She didn't know what else to say.

"So you did know then? And you didn't tell me why?"

"Chlo, you're marrying Jesse. I didn't want it to seem like I was just desperate to stop the wedding because I don't like him. That would have been unfair to both you and Beca."

"Bree, I've been in love with Beca since I was a little girl! Don't you think telling me you've found her was pertinent information? I kept talking to you about her, and you kept telling me it was silly."

"Chlo, I've known Beca for almost two years now and I only found out about a month ago. And you're still in love with Beca?"

"A month! And you didn't tell me?"

"Hey, don't change the subject, you just said you're in love with Beca."

"You're the one changing – "

"Irrelevant. You're in love with Beca?"

"I… Well…" Chloe mumbled before she took a deep breath. "Yes." She said as she sighed.

"Oh Chloe." Aubrey commented, taking the redhead in her arms.

"I don't know what to do Bree."

"Of course you do, you follow your heart."

"But it's not that simple. I'm not even sure if we're still the same people. Bree, it's been ages ago, it's been years. We've grown, we've changed. We became the people who we are now. What if we're not the same, you know? What if the Beca I fell for is gone and I'm just holding onto that image."

"I hardly believe that Chlo." Aubrey said sincerely. "I think you fell in love back then not to who Beca was, but who she is at her core, like, I don't know how to explain it to you. Just think about it this way, I think you fell in love with everything that was Beca, who she was before you met, who she was when you did, and who she will become, all because you can see her for who she truly is, all of it. And I think that's the same with Beca."

Chloe nodded.

What Aubrey said felt true.

But she was still afraid.

Afraid of who they've become, afraid of the distance the years had placed between them.

She knew Jesse. He was safe. Chloe could predict what he would do next, and if he did decide to hurt Chloe, somehow she knew it would hurt less than if Beca ends up hurting her.

Because to her Beca was the wild card. The brunette was already dubbed 'DJ Casanova' for a justified reason. Not that Chloe was a saint either. She's had her fair share of trouble. She was just afraid that the pressures, the dark days they both had to live through, would catch up to them.

And she was afraid that Beca may no longer be enamored to who she's become. That she's in love with the image of Chloe she had from her memories.

The only thing she knew for sure?

It was all overwhelming.

Because everything she's been wishing for was now right in front of her.

The dream she was all but ready to give up on.

If she chases after it, there's a chance it will fail.

So would it be better if she just gave up now?

Save herself the pain.

Stick with what she knew.

Or would it be worth it to risk it all?

And take that chance.

Maybe end up finding the most beautiful and precious of all the treasures this world has to offer.

Because Beca was like a fiery fire in her coldest winters.

The most refreshing rain.

And the way she felt about her could definitely move mountains.

Just her touch shakes her core, sends a shiver down her spine.

Like electricity was constantly flowing through her veins.

And when their eyes meet, it's like seeing fireworks everywhere.

Fireworks and sparks that never go away.

Then there's that pull, the one she feels at the pits of her stomach. Like gravity was simply pulling her to where she belonged.

And if it was gravity, then would she really dare and fight it?

Chloe was about to say something when reality came knocking at her door, chasing away the dream.

Jesse was calling. He was probably home.

Waiting for her to come home to him.

And that was what Chloe believed to be home.

So why did it feel like she was so guilty for running away?

Not from Jesse.

But from Beca.

Chloe knew the answers.

But the question is, would she allow herself to see it?
