Chloe could tell she had a rough night. The first this year, but it wasn't due to schoolwork or nothing to do with the Bellas. It was because she stayed up all night helping Beca. She held her head back when she threw up, which only happened three times, and held a cold cloth against her forehead to stop the pain.

When the brunette finally fell asleep after the pain was over, Chloe was able to go to sleep. Beca insisted she should sleep on the couch and Chloe decided to let her, seeing how stubborn the girl was being.

The next morning, all Chloe had to do was have a cup of coffee and she felt brand new. She then looked at the girl sleeping on the couch and sighed, feeling bad for her, she had thrown up all her dinner the night before and she knew she was going to need the energy. So Chloe decided to make her breakfast. She knew the girl ate a lot, so she made French toast, pancakes, waffles and scrambled eggs. And hot cocoa, knowing Aubrey loved it.

She then decided to wake Beca up, knowing Aubrey would also be up in a few minutes. She knelt down in front of Beca and shook her lightly by her shoulder.

"Beca? Beca, wake up." She said softly.

Beca stirred and stretched her arms out, sitting up.

"Morning, Pocket Size." Chloe said and laughed when Beca groaned. "I made breakfast, are you hungry?"

"Starving." Beca said.

"Come on." Chloe said and the two went to the kitchen.

Beca sat down, amazed at the quantity of food Chloe had prepared.

"Are you feeling better?" Chloe asked.

"Yeah, a lot, thanks." Beca said. "I'm still a little sensitive to the light and a little bit nauseous. I won't throw up, though, it'll be gone in a few minutes."

"Okay then." Chloe said. "Do you get these migraines often?"

"When I was fifteen, I used to get them every month. My doctor said it was because I was too stressed. Now, I rarely get them." Beca shrugged.

"They seem horrible." Chloe said.

"You have no idea. After you have a migraine like I do, you'll endure any pain." Beca said.

Chloe nodded and poured her some hot cocoa and put it in front of her.

"You made a lot of food, Red, it smells delicious. I think I'm gonna have a little bit of everything." Beca smiled.

"Goody!" Chloe smiled.

"Chloe, who are you talking to?" Aubrey entered the kitchen and saw Beca sitting there.

"Hi Aubrey." She said.

"That answers my question." Aubrey said.

"Beca, Fat Amy and I went out to dinner last night and Beca had a migraine crisis, so I offered her to stay here with us for the night." Chloe said.

"Sure." Aubrey said, sitting down on the table with Beca. "Are we having a football team over for breakfast?"

"I just eat a lot." Beca said.

Aubrey was quite surprised that Beca wasn't being rude to her and wasn't giving her cold replies, so she decided to lay off the girl.

Chloe was glad to see the two were not at each other's throats this time and they could have a peaceful meal.

Beca was enjoying her hot cocoa, when her phone started ringing. She saw it was her dad and she rolled her eyes, sliding the screen to answer it.

"Hi dad." She said. "Yeah, no, I spent the night at some friend's house because I had a migraine crisis last night… No, that's okay, I'm fine now." Beca frowned. "Chloe."

Chloe smiled at the mention of her name.

"Yeah, I did. Chloe and Fat Amy made sure I ate a proper dinner and now Chloe made a huge breakfast." Beca said. "I will, I have it already in my bag… Okay, bye dad."

She hung up and put her phone on the table, rolling her eyes as she went back to her breakfast.

"My dad said thanks for babysitting me." She said.

"If he means taking care of you, that's no problem." Chloe said. "Now Beca, Aubrey and I have to go to rehearsals, if you want to stay, take a shower and change, please do."

"You're gonna let her get to rehearsals late?" Aubrey asked.

"It's fine, we can do cardio until she's there, when she gets there, we'll rehearse." Chloe said.

"My doctor told me to exercise less." Beca said. "Don't worry Aubrey, when she says I'm free to run around the world, I'll invite you to come with me."

Aubrey rolled her eyes.

"Alright then, I'll let this slide because of your migraine last night, but don't make it a habit." Aubrey said. "You come early to rehearsal and… rest when you start to feel bad."

"That's… thanks." Beca said, shocked that Aubrey had said that. "I won't be longer than forty minutes."

"Forty minutes?!" Aubrey exclaimed and Chloe nudged her gently. "Okay, then."

Beca nodded and Aubrey and Chloe began cleaning up the kitchen.

Beca took a shower, cleaned herself up, feeling great about being alone in a place where she could shower and change, then went to rehearsals.

oO0Oo

The Bellas performance at the frat house couldn't have gone worse and they were kicked out of the party, feeling horrible.

Beca was blaming the old songs and choreography, but she knew the girls weren't ready to perform yet, they had just been rehearsing for a week.

Beca noticed Chloe seemed pretty upset, when she was about to ask, Aubrey started bitching on her and it made the brunette want to start yelling again, but then Chloe turned around and confessed to having nodes.

"What are nodes?" Beca asked.

"Vocal nodules." Aubrey said. "The rubbing together of your vocal chords without proper lubrication."

"They stand on your windpipe and they crush your dreams." Chloe said.

"Isn't that painful? Why would you keep singing?" Beca asked.

"Because I love to sing!" Chloe shrugged.

"Chloe, this is horrible." Aubrey said and Chloe nodded, looking down.

"Well, at least it's not herpes." Fat Amy said and everybody looked at her. "Or do you have that as well?"

"Okay!" Aubrey clapped her hands together, trying to change the subject.

Now, they had to find a way to pay for Regionals. The only way Aubrey and Chloe knew was a bikini car wash, but they were reluctant, well, Aubrey was reluctant, because the Bellas weren't all 'attractive' anymore.

Aubrey was talking to Chloe in private about it and Aubrey was rolling her eyes a lot, Beca didn't know whether it was a good sign or a bad one.

"Okay you guys, go rest or study, we'll talk tomorrow morning in rehearsals." Aubrey said. "I'll see what we'll do."

The girls all nodded and started going back to their dorms. Beca stayed, though. She was worried about Chloe, the girl took care of her when she had migraine, she had to do something back for her.

She approached the redhead quietly and eyed her carefully.

"Are you okay?" she asked her.

Chloe looked up at her with a sweet smile.

"I'm fine, my throat just hurts a little bit." Chloe said with a shrug.

"Is there anything… I can do? Can you drink something that'll help?" Beca asked.

"The doctor said tea or water would help." Chloe said.

"Okay… wanna go out for a cup of tea?" Beca asked.

Chloe chuckled.

"Sure." Chloe nodded. "Shall we go then?"

"Alright." Beca nodded and the two started walking to the coffee shop on campus.

"So, I'm trying to convince Aubrey to let us do a bikini car wash." Chloe said.

"That sounds like something cheerleaders would do." Beca said. "No offense."

"None taken, that's true. But we used to do it before and it was really fun. Plus, I don't want Aubrey to worry about physical appearance, we need money." Chloe said.

"Well…" Beca said.

"You worry about physical appearance?" Chloe asked, surprised. "Why?"

"I just do." Beca shrugged. "I mean, I know I'm not fat, but…"

"Beca, you have nothing to worry about, if what I saw in that shower was anything to go by." Chloe said.

"Well… thanks?" Beca said, unsure, making Chloe laugh.

"You're welcome." Chloe said as they walked into the coffee shop and took a seat. "So, how's your blood pressure?"

"It's okay." Beca nodded.

"And your migraine?"

"Okay too." Beca nodded. "I hope I don't have another crisis."

"Yeah, me too." Chloe said. "Hey, I had an idea. Aubrey's gonna study for the next two hours, how about we go back to my apartment and watch a movie?"

"I'm not really a fan of movies." Beca said.

"Really?" Chloe asked. "Never met someone who didn't like movies. Well, we can turn the TV and talk while we eat something."

"If you're gonna rest your vocal chords, then okay." Beca shrugged. What are you doing? You can't get close to people, they're gonna run out on you!

oO0Oo

Beca tried to focus on whatever movie Chloe wanted her to watch, but she was so exhausted she ended up falling asleep.

Chloe knew the brunette had fallen asleep during the movie and she was okay with that, she didn't like movies after all. She was just happy that Beca was near her.

The movie Chloe was watching ended and she decided now would be a good time to wake Beca. She turned to the brunette with a smile and started shaking her by the shoulders lightly.

"Hmm, what?" Beca asked, rubbing her eyes.

"The movie's over. Want something to eat? We haven't eaten yet." Chloe asked.

"Umm… I'm not sure." Beca said.

"What happened, Beca? You eat like an elephant, I thought food would cheer you up." Chloe said.

"It does, I'm just…" Beca sighed. "I have to be in the station at two and normally I eat lunch nearby and I go to the station right after lunch."

"You could eat lunch here or we could go out." Chloe suggested.

Beca made a face as if she was uncomfortable and Chloe's smile fell slowly. She looked at her hands and she felt something bad inside her. She was disappointed that Beca didn't want to do anything with her, but she just looked up at Beca, nodded and faked a smile.

"Okay then. I'll talk to Aubrey about what we're going to do and I'll let you guys know." She spoke.

"Okay." Beca said and stood up.

Chloe took her to the door and closed it after she was out and sighed, going to the kitchen to get something to eat.

Beca felt bad. She knew Chloe was disappointed, it was written all over her face, but she couldn't help it. She had to stop spending time with her. Her initial plan was to just go to college and not make any friends because she knew people would just leave her.
