Rehearsal's were just tiring. They had been going at it forever, Beca was tired. She had a shift the night before at the radio station and all she wanted to do was go back to her dorm and sleep the day away. But no, she was stuck here.

They had gone on their warm up run around the Bella's rehearsal hall then they ran through the dance routine until Aubrey said that it was perfect. Which is why they're still going through it, two hours later. Beca thought it was crazy, how can they go through the routine for two hours and still manage not to get it right?

As if reading her thoughts, Fat Amy leant over and whispered into Beca's ear.

"This is the craziest the aca-nazi has been. Wonder what has her bra in a knot."

"That's not the saying." Beca whispered back, but as she leant back she caught Chloe's eye in the mirror, the redhead flashed her a smile. Beca just grimaced.

"Okay ladies, let's run through the routine one more time. I think we are nearly done." Aubrey turned and faced the group.

She was met with tired faces and a few annoyed ones as well. Which is what she expected, she had been running them into the ground. Which is what was necessary to be perfect.

"No." Aubrey heard a voice say from the back of the group.

Once she singled out who just refused to obey her, she rolled her eyes. Of course, it had been Beca, that girl has been a pain in the neck since she joined the group.

"I'm sorry?" Aubrey questioned, who does she think she is?

"I don't think we need to go through the damn routine again. We've been at it for nearly two hours now. I don't know about anybody else, but I am exhausted, I have other things to do. So, no." Beca refused to back down, her legs were close to shaking, she hasn't had to stand for this long at once before.

"You must have a lack of air to your brain because I thought I actually heard you just tell me no." Aubrey said back.

"No," Beca took a deep breath, "plenty of air up there."

Aubrey narrowed her eyes as she heard snickers from the group in front of her. She clapped her hands, her cheeks reddening.

"Again!" She got back in her position and turned in a flash, glaring at Beca in the mirror.

Beca opened her dorm door with a huff. She couldn't believe today's practice. Dancing for 2 hours straight really drained her. She looked to the left of the room, noticing her roommate wasn't there. She breathed out a sigh of relief.

Walking over to her bed, she took off her shoes and threw her bag by the end of it. She pulled back the covers and hopped in.

After what felt like 10 minutes of sleeping, Beca is brought out of her slumber by a loud knock on her door. Sighing, she threw back her covers, glanced at herself in the mirror to make sure she looked presentable. Walking to the door, she unlocked it and opened it.

"Hey Beca! How are you feeling?" Chloe's enthusiastic voice rang through Beca's ears. How can someone be so peppy?

"Great, until you woke me up." Beca stared at Chloe with a blank voice, unaffected, Chloe just smiled.

"Well seeing that you're awake now. Are you interested in coming to study on the grass with me?" Chloe asked with hope, she had studying to do, sure, but she would love to get to know Beca a little more.

"I don't know if I can, I'm really tired plus I have some remixing to do." Beca tried to come up with an excuse.

"Just bring your laptop! You can do some remixing outside, I promise I won't distract you." Chloe tried to bargain.

Letting out a sigh of defeat, Beca just nodded. She turned and went to grab her things. An excited squeal coming from behind her.

Once Beca and Chloe had found a comfortable place to sit, under a tree, they pulled out their things and set to their tasks. Luckily, Chloe thought of bringing a blanket, so Beca's pants wouldn't get dirty.

Right before putting her headphones over her ears, Chloe's voice stopped her.

"Wait, why can't you keep the headphones off?" Chloe asked Beca.

"Because, I won't be able to hear all the transitions and stuff properly, it helps with getting a good job done." Beca said, right before putting the headphones on. She just wanted to mix, no talking.

Chloe's shoulders slumped but she just turned back to her work. At least she had got Beca outside.

After staying outside for an hour and a half, Chloe decided she was going to head back to her apartment. Closing her book, she rubbed at her temples. Classes were so hard, why did she want to become a vet again?

As if sensing her stress, Beca placed a hand on Chloe's shoulder.

"What's up, red?" Beca asked. Chloe smiled a little at the nickname.

"School is just stressful that's all." Chloe sighed as she gathered her things and put them into her bag. She waited for Beca to finish putting her things away before standing. Beca standing with her.

Wrapping her arms around the brunette, she felt the smaller girl stiffen at the embrace. When she released, her stomach let out a rumble.

Beca just chuckled,

"somebody must be hungry. Well, it was nice studying with you, see you at the next rehearsals." Beca gave a small wave before turning to walk away.

As if a lightbulb lit above her head, Chloe got an idea. Quickly catching up to Beca, she tapped her shoulder. Beca whipped around, hand on the whistle attached to her bag strap.

"Woah there girly. I just had a great idea, why don't we get some pizza and then go chill at my apartment?" Chloe asked the younger girl. Giving Beca her best attempt at the puppy dog eyes. After a couple of seconds, Beca sighed in defeat and nodded.

"Sure, why not?" Chloe smiled and wrapped her arm around Beca's.

Beca, still getting used to the amount of affection from the ginger, stiffened at first, but relaxed more and more with each step they took.

Eventually, they got to the pizza place just off campus. Walking into the shop, Beca and Chloe's noses were immediately met with the smell of pizza.

"God, this smells so good." Beca could feel her mouth water just from the smell alone.

"I know right, just wait until you taste it." Chloe walked up to the counter and greeted the cashier with a smile.

"Hi! Can I please get a BBQ pulled pork and a Hawaiian pizza please?" Chloe asked nicely.

Beca raised her eyebrows, this girl must be hungry if she's ordering two pizzas. As if reading her thoughts, Chloe spoke.

"One's for Aubrey." Of course, Beca completely forgot that the two lived together. Was it too late to go back to her dorm now?

"Well, go get your pizza." Chloe nudged Beca with her elbow.

"Right, uh, can I please get a Buffalo chicken deluxe? Thank you." Beca handed the cashier some cash before getting her change.

"Right, so let's grab a seat and wait." Beca grabbed Chloe's arm and pulled her to a chair to the side of the counter.

"I kind of forgot you and Aubrey lived together." Beca told Chloe, face blank.

"Yeah, we've lived together since our second year, after we didn't have to live in a dorm anymore we decided to find an apartment together, we haven't moved since." Chloe informed Beca, they've been living together for three years.

"How haven't you killed each other? Or more importantly, how haven't you killed her yet?" Beca questioned with teasing lacing her tone.

"Ha. Ha." Chloe smacked Beca's arm playfully.

"No but really, it was a bit hard at first, her being a clean freak and whatever, but once I realised that I had to keep my shit tidy it was smooth sailing from there. She's not a bad person like you think." Beca just snorted as a response.

"No seriously, that girl has helped me through so much shit. Plus, she sometimes proofreads my assignments." Chloe raised her eyebrows, Beca just sighed.

"It's not that I don't like her, no actually, I don't. It's just the Bella's, she's just so controlling over it." Beca said, she wanted to say more but she was interrupted by their order numbers being called out.

"That's us." Chloe said before getting out of her chair, Beca followed.

When they got to Chloe's apartment, Beca knew she had to keep her cool and keep the talk about the Bella's to a minimum.

Opening the door, Chloe stepped into the apartment before calling out.

"Honey, I'm home!" Chloe grinned as she heard steps approach from the hallway.

"Oh dear! I'm so glad, I thought you had run off with your secretary aga-" Aubrey's words caught in her throat as she noticed that Chloe was not alone.

Beca just awkwardly gave Aubrey a little wave before Chloe spoke through the awkwardness.

"Well, we bought you pizza. Got you your favourite." Chloe sang as she handed the pizza over to the blonde girl.

"Thank you. Beca, what are you doing here?" Aubrey was going to try and keep civil, for Chloe's case of course.

"Oh, uhm. Chloe and I were studying on the grass when she decided to get some pizza and come chill out here. If you want me to go, I can." Beca pointed her to thumb to the door she just came through and has yet to close.

Aubrey had never seen the girl so quiet before.

"No, it's completely fine." Aubrey was going to say something else, but she was cut off by Chloe's voice ringing from the lounge.

"Get your asses in here! We have a movie to watch!" Both girls not wanting to keep the redhead waiting, went to the lounge without a word. After Beca shut the door of course.

After sitting down and getting comfortable, Beca realised that it was probably a good time to admit that,

"I don't like movies." She said as she opened the lid of her pizza box, she heard a gasp from her left.

"What?! You're joking." Chloe exclaimed, she couldn't believe it. who didn't like movies?

"No, seriously." Beca stated.

"Well, why not?" Aubrey asked Beca, Beca turned her head to look at the girl on the right, looking straight into her eyes, Beca felt her cheeks redden under the blonde's stare. Tearing her eyes away, she focused on pulling a slice of pizza and taking a bite. Once she had swallowed, she glanced at the two girls on either side of her.

"They're always just so predictable. The guy gets the girl, darth vader is Luke's father."

"Oh right, cause you just happened to guess the greatest reveal in cinematic history." Aubrey gaped, she never saw it coming. She was still shocked to this day.

"Vader means father in Dutch; his name literally means Darth Father." Beca said amused. Chloe couldn't believe it.

"So, you know Dutch?" Chloe asked, she was gonna enjoy this. She loved other languages. Plus, Aubrey spoke Dutch, they have something in common!

"Yeah, since I was little. My grandmother was Dutch, and she always spoke in Dutch, never English. So, I kinda had to learn or I would never speak to her." Beca told the two.

"Aubrey can speak Dutch! Can't you Aubrey?" Chloe said. Aubrey just glared at the redhead.

"Yep, sure can." Aubrey said through gritted teeth.

"You can? How come?" Beca asked her, Beca barely meets anyone who can speak another language, let alone Dutch.

"My father's father was Dutch, so it was the same kind of situation as you." Aubrey smiled at the memory of her grandfather. He taught her so many things.

"Is that a smile? Holy shit, I never thought I'd live to see the day." Beca teased, Aubrey's smile disappeared but there was still a little turn up of her lip. Beca just smiled.

"hou je mond." Aubrey said to the brunette.

Chloe gasped excitedly and clapped her hands. This was so cool and exciting!

"dwing mij." Beca smirked at the blonde, who's mouth dropped open.

Chloe quickly grabbed her phone and opened google, immediately searching google translate, she hit the record button and waited for Aubrey's response.

"jij wenst." Aubrey replied, Chloe's curiosity and shit translation got the better of her.

"What are you saying! Tell me! This is so unfair." Chloe pouted, the other two just chuckled at her.

"I just told her to shut up, Beca said make me, then I said you wish." Aubrey clarified for the redhead.

"manier om de geheimen te morsen" Beca spoke to the blonde.

"But it's okay red, I'll always have English with you." Beca placed her hand over the redheads with feigned concern.

"Oh, thank you so much Beca, now, what movie should we watch?" Chloe removed her hand from underneath the brunettes and picked up the remote, she wanted to watch a movie, one that wasn't predictable. She would break Beca's hatred towards movie's, one way or another.

Beca chuckled and used her now free hand to grab another slice of pizza. But not before turning to look at the blonde seated beside her. Aubrey had a distant look on her face, Beca couldn't describe it. So, she just raised her eyebrows and smiled, looking back at the TV.

"Oh, hell no we are not watching Salt." Beca complained.

"But Angelina Jolie is so hot." Chloe begged.

"It's true." Came a response from Beca's right. Beca gaped at the now blonde's bright red cheeks.

Aubrey chastised herself, calm yourself, she slowly felt her cheeks cool. Why the hell was her body reacting this way? Especially to Beca, the alt girl that pissed her off at Bella rehearsals, yet the same girl that seemed to grind her gears in all the right ways.
