Beca was still thinking about that dream even a few days later, she couldn't seem to shake it from her head. She hadn't spoke to anyone about it, not even Chloe. She had something more important on her mind for the time being, making sure Barden wins the championship today.
"Lucy, what's wrong?" Beca asked softly, her, Stacie, Emily and Jennifer were trying to calm the team's nerves in the locker room before they had to go out on the field. The short brunette approached the teenager who was sitting down with her head in her hands.
The 17 year old just shook her head, taking her hands away to turn to the older woman with teary eyes.
"Woah, what's up?" Beca said in a quiet voice, trying not to draw too much attention.
"My girlfriend just dumped me." Lucy whispered, her lip quivering as she tried not to cry. "She just texted me saying she couldn't do this anymore."
Beca's heart broke for the girl. That other girl is a little cunt doing that to Lucy on her big day. She took a deep breath, trying to think of what to say. "I'm...so sorry Lucy. That's really shady of her." She mentally kicked herself for not being able to be more sympathetic.
"I just can't...I love her and hate her at the same time." The girl muttered in frustration.
Beca knew how she felt. All those years ago when Chloe slept with Ryan behind her back, she didn't know she could hate and love someone so much at the same time, it was a crazy feeling.
"I know how you feel." The brunette placed a hand on the blonde's shoulder.
"You do?"
Beca just nodded. "Look kid, I know I sound blunt but shit happens. She obviously doesn't deserve something like you. I wish I could help but there's not much I can do."
"Nah it's okay, I don't expect you to do anything. You've done enough for me already. I just don't think I can go out there, she'll be watching." Lucy hung her head.
"And that's why you need to play, you need to show her what she's missing." The 24 year old offered a smile with a playful nudge. "Focus all that negative energy on the game...just don't get too carried away and do what I did plenty of times, get a red card." She added with a laugh. "Let it motivate you."
Lucy took a deep breath before nodding.
"Come on girls!" Beca yelled from the sideline, acting more as a coach as coach Corcoran was.
"There's my captain." Coach Corcoran chuckled from beside her, folding his arms across his chest. "You girls have really lifted their spirits y'know." He smirked knowingly.
"You think?" Beca asked as she watched Lucy make a run into the box as the ball was crossed in, unfortunately she missed it completely and almost flew into the post. "Woah, she gotta be careful." She cringed.
"She's quite a clumsy. A great player but she's the one that ends up injured most of the time." The man chuckled, shaking his head.
"Hey! sounds like me." Beca laughed, holding up her cast.
"How are you doing anyway? I've barely had a chance to talk since you've been here." He nudged her gently.
"Good. A little stressed about the wedding but other than that, everything's going great." Okay, that was a slight lie.
"Oh yeah. I wish you both all the best by the way." He grinned, pointing at her ring that still had to be worn on the wrong hand. Of course he knew Chloe when she worked here, just like every other teacher but since they've been here, not one of them have questioned their relationship.
