Chapter 7
Beca's POV
I'm sitting at my desk working on a mix when I feel a tap on my shoulder. I prepare myself to yell at whoever decided to barge into my room and interrupt my flow. I turn around and instantly see red hair. Chloe. I can't help but smile. She smiles back at me as she pulls out a black cloth bag from behind her back. I'm slightly confused and slowly pull my headphones off.
"Hey Becs I'm going to need to put this bag over your head, but I thought I would give you a heads up before kidnapping you. I knocked a few times but you didn't answer, so I figured you were working. Why don't you go ahead and save what you have and change and put some shoes on."
"Thanks Chlo" I say as I save my mix and head over to my closet. "Any chance you don't have to walk me around campus with that on my head?"
"You know what just for you I won't, but I'll have to put it on before we go into the auditorium. Also, don't tell Bree. She'll kill me for not following tradition."
I finish getting dressed and put my shoes on. We head out of my dorm and start to walk towards the auditorium. As were walking Chloe slowly slides her hand into mine. Surprisingly, I find myself accepting it and holding her hand back. I find myself enjoying it, which I normally don't enjoy physical contact of any kind with anyone. Chloe suddenly stops walking before we get to the auditorium.
"Becs, I need to put the hood on now. Don't worry I'll hold your hand and lead you where you need to go. You can trust me." She slips the black cloth over my head and I can't see anything anymore. I usually wouldn't want to trust anyone with anything at all, but somehow I don't question it. Somehow, I actually feel like I can trust her. I feel like I could trust Chloe with my life.
I feel her soft hand slip into mine. I can smell her floral perfume. Suddenly I feel her breath by my ear through the material over my head.
"We're going to walk straight for a while, then we're going to walk through the door. After that we will be on stage." She pulls on my hand to start walking.
After what feels like forever, we finally stop. I hear Aubrey announce peoples names and suddenly I hear mine and my hood is being ripped off. I take in my surroundings. Aubrey is standing up front by Chloe holding a cup of a liquid giving some stupid speech. I'm standing in a line of about 10 girls. What have I gotten myself into.
After we were forced to take an oath, it was announced that there was a party, so we are headed there now. When I get to what looks like an ampitheater I see a bunch of people I recognize from auditions. I even see Jesse, so he must've gotten into the Trebles. I find a good spot halfway down the rows of seats and stand there taking it all in. Parties aren't really my thing.
I see Jesse making his way over to me. He is wearing his stupid grin on his face and I know he's going to tease me.
"Well, well, well, you're a Barden Bella. I can't believe it."
"And you're a Treble." I say with a smirk as he hands me a drink.
"Now here's the real question. Did you join for the club or did you join because of Chloe?"
"I'm going to just let you decide that." I look over and see Chloe walking over to me. Jesse follows my gaze.
"I guess that's my que to leave." I turn to see him walking off to some fellow Trebles.
"Hey Becs!" Chloe shouts at me as she comes over. Suddenly she's right in front of me grabbing my arm and pulling me close. "I think we're going to be really fast friends" She whispers.
Her face is so close to mine. I keep staring at her lips. I want nothing more than to just lean in and close the gap between us. Instead I decide to make a sarcastic comment.
"Well you saw me naked soo…" I add a wink and my signature smirk.
"And I enjoyed every minute of it." Chloe replies with a smirk of her own. "I know parties aren't really your thing, so if you want we can go back to my apartment and hang out for a bit."
Is she really asking me to come back to her place? Is Chloe into me? I must be crazy, Chloe couldn't possibly be into me. Plus we can't do anything because of Aubrey.
"Sure. We should let Bree know that we're leaving though."
