Chapter 7

Beca sighed "It's all good Stacie, nothing you could have done. In case you've forgotten, I've gone through this before."

"That still doesn't make it ok Beca." Stacie said.

Beca chuckled "Geez thanks for the insight."

Stacie groaned "Can you not be sarcastic right now? After everything you just told me, I just wanna be here for you and help."

"Still the same Stacie I see. Always wanting to help." Beca said.

"Of course I want to help! Your my best friend Beca and these last four years without you have been shit for me ok. I just want my Beca back." Stacie exclaimed.

"Stacie 'your Beca' died four years ago. What I am now, you wouldn't like ok. I know I've turned into this cold emotionless person that no one wants to be around." Beca shot back.

"I know the old you is still in there. You said it yourself, when I showed up you felt emotions again." Stacie said.

Beca raised a brow "Yeah so?"

"Maybe I can help you get back to the old you. I mean who's always been closest to you? We've always been able to help each other through anything; this won't be any different." Stacie said now scooting closer to Beca.

Beca shrugged "I don't know Stacie. It's not like you can just magically poof my emotions back in a day or to. It's been four years; I don't think anything can work at this point."

Stacie grabbed Beca's hands "Beca we've been best friends since we were fifteen and ever since that day you fell down when I was moving boxes, we've been inseparable. I was able to get you to open up after everything you went through with your parents split. You've said it yourself, I broke through you then. I was there when your first girlfriend did you dirty and was able to break you out of that slump. And how many times have you helped me when I got sad or depressed? Or when I was going through my own shit who was able to get through to me? You Beca. We've always been the ones to help each other, always been the ones there when the other was down and feeling out. We were more then family and the love we had for each other was astronomical. Even after these past four years Beca I know you still feel the same about me and our friendship. I know I never stopped considering you as my best friend and my love for you as never diminished. No matter how long we've been separated I know together we can overcome anything." Stacie finished with fresh tears in her eyes.

Beca once more felt the wave of sadness at the mention of Stacie and hers past. Sadness at the look on Stacie's face and the fact that she was crying once more. Whenever Stacie would cry Beca would always feel this wave of sadness and anger no matter what. Beca thought back at all the times they had been there for one another and how they always managed to help one another back up onto there feet.

"See! You felt sad right? Your face and eyes just showed it." Stacie said.

Beca nodded "Yeah I did, but it just goes away."

Stacie squeezed her hand "And that's why I want to help. Please consider it, I just want to help."

"Alright I will." Beca said.

Stacie smiled "Thank you." Stacie got up "I know you were never the most affectionate but can I hug you?" Stacie asked awkwardly.

Beca raised a brow "Uh what?"

Stacie sighed "This is the first time I've seen you in so long and I just want to hug my best friend. I miss your hugs." Stacie said with a pout.

Beca shook her head and got up "Whatever floats your boat Stacie."

Stacie beamed and quickly engulfed Beca in a crushing hug "God how I've missed this."

Beca slowly returned the hug "Of course you did. You never could keep your hands off of me."

Stacie laughed "Your just irresistible."

Beca rolled her eyes "Alright it's late and I really just want to lie down.

Stacie broke the embrace and nodded "Yeah you're right. That flight really took its toll on me."

Beca nodded "I'll show you where the guest rooms are and you can pick which ever one you like."

"How many rooms do you even have for that to even be an option?" Stacie questioned with a chuckle.

"Six. Five guest rooms." Beca answered with a shrug.

"You say that like it's not a lot." Stacie said.

"I guess you just get used to it." Beca said as she headed up the stairs.

Stacie grabbed her luggage and followed her "Guess so. Are you cool with this? I mean with me staying here?" Stacie asked a bit hesitant.

"I mean I guess. At least I actually know you." Beca responded with a shrug.

"That's nice." Stacie mumbled.

Beca sighed and turned to face the taller girl "Look Stacie, I'm sorry alright. I know how happy and excited you are to actually be here and be close to me again. But I've been by myself for four years just surrounded by business people and artist, I don't really get close to anyone anymore. Trust me I'm glad that you're here, truly am but it's going to take time to get used being around you and anyone from the past. Like I said before I'm not that same Beca, I'm going to be cold and distant and most likely going to piss you off because of that. Just know that if you want to help, you're going to have to deal with a lot of shit from my side."

Stacie nodded "That's fair and I understand that. I'm sorry I'm just really am happy to be around you again. I'm sorry I'm advanced if I'm to much or try to push you to far." Stacie said with a small smile.

Beca patted her arm "It's alright. Trust me you'll know if you pushed me to far."

Beca led Stacie to the hallway where all the guest rooms were "Alright all the rooms have a walk in closet and their own bathrooms, just pick which ever one."

"Thank you Beca. Can we talk more tomorrow?" Stacie asked.

Beca groaned "Fine whatever."

Stacie smiled "Awesome. We'll good night, see you in the morning I guess. Wait do you have work or anything?"

"Nope, I'm away from the studio for another couple of days." Beca answered.

"Great. Good night Bec." Stacie said as she backs up into the room she picked.

Beca gave a small nod "Night."

Once Stacie's door closed Beca headed to her room and closed the door. She leaned against the door and sighed.

"What the fuck." She said quietly. She reached for her phone and dialed up her dad.

Once John answered Beca spoke.

"You couldn't warn me that a certain person had my info?" She asked.

John gave a small chuckle "It was meant as a surprise sweetie."

"Well consider me surprised." Beca said sarcastically.

"So how did the reunion go?" John asked with amusement.

"Well she slapped me when I opened the door then proceeded to yell at me." Beca deadpanned.

"Well honey you did have to coming." John replied.

"I'm aware. Other then that we just talked. I told my side of things, she told me why she was here and that she wanted to help me get back to my old self." Beca told her father.

"She means well kid. This is Stacie we're talking about; the girl is one of the most selfless people out there. Give her a chance, that day you left, you took a big piece of her with you. She wasn't the same Stacie just like you weren't the same Beca. You two need each other to be fully happy. I know it isn't going to be easy but don't push her away and give up alright?" John asked.

"Yeah I know dad and alright I'll give this a chance. Just no more surprises." Beca said.

John laughed "Promise no more surprises."

"Alright I know it's late as hell over there so I'll call you later."

"Of course sweetie."

"Night dad, love you."

"Love you too sweetheart."

Beca hung up the phone and plugged her phone in to charge. She plopped down in bed and looked up towards the ceiling.

"Well this should be interesting."
