4 Years Too Long

Chapter 4

Luisa and Pieter were talking when the Bella's finally made their appearance at the creepy acapella fan's house. Before they had shown up Luisa was actually thinking they wouldn't. That was honestly the only reason Luisa even considered showing up to it.

"Please Luisa, ve are here. Ve might as well stay and see vhat the, as ze American's say, hype is," Pieter was almost begging his leader.

"Enough Pieter," Luisa barked at him. "You know as well as I zat zere is no point in being here if ze Bella's aren't. Ve need to be practicing. Ze only reason ve are here is to see vhat the Bella's are made of. If zey are not here, zen ve do not need to be," Luisa stated matter of factly.

Luisa was right, and Pieter knew it. Pieter also knew that they needed a night off. All of their performances were running the group out of energy. The group needed a way to remind them of why they started singing acapella to begin with. Not just because of the cmptetion, but for their love of singing. Pieter was about to speak up about that, but the Bella's had just walked in.

-

 Damn it. I didn't even think that DSM would be here. I'm not ready to face her again. Beca thought to herself.

"Tiny Maus, we meet again," Luisa points out, drink in one hand, and the other on her hip.

Beca's heart flutters at the sound of her old nickname. Hoping that meant Luisa remembered her after all.

"Another verbal beat down. Highlight of my day," Luisa's sidekick says.

 He is really getting on my nerves.

"So," Luisa begins, "have you abandoned your foolish plans to face us at the worlds?"

"You wish, you gorgeous specimen." Fuck, did I just say that out loud. Beca looks to Chloe and says, "she's really in my head." Beca clearly cannot control her words around the woman that held her heart. Not that she would have cared, if it were just the 2 of them again.

"Very well. I'll be happy to send you there. I'll mail you. Large envelope. Cost nothing," Luisa replies with a smirk. Remembering their old joke about Beca saying she would just ship herself to Germany instead of a letter.

"Well it would cost more than nothing, but still cheaper than shipping like a horse or perhaps an adult moose," Pieter adds on to the conversation, clearly feeling left out of the back forth going on between the blonde and brunette.

Beca was irritated at that point. Want to just say fuck everyone and spill her feelings all over the place. Instead she said the one thing that came to her mind. "Did you ever think that maybe you're too big? It would take a fortune to mail you." Beca asked, clearly irritated. Chloe deciding to take it upon herself to drag the brunette before she did something she'd regret. "You're enormous," Beca adds on before being out of earshot.

Beca sees Jesse, and is relieved because he's the only one that knows about her love for the German, and she hopes he can keep her from making an ass out of herself. "What are you doing here," Beca asks, giving him a hug. Before Jesse can reply though, there's a sound. Something sounding awfully like a gong.

"I guess I gotta go," Jesse says to her.

"What? Why," she asks, fearing to be left without him, know she can't be trusted in this dark room with the love of her life.

"I don't know," he states apologetically, going back to the Treblemakers.

In all honestly, Beca wasn't paying attention when the bald guy, which she found out later that his name is Sir Willup Brightslymoore, started talking. Beca understood that it was a riff off, and that's all she cared to pay attention. All her thoughts were on the blonde getting into her teammate's beatboxing with someone from the Tonehangers. She could see that she wasn't as hardcore as she made others think. Beca say the acapella nerd in her eyes. It was just another reason to love the blonde.

Sir Willup announced the theme for the first round. "Songs about Butts."

Beca looks to Chloe and asks, "anything on the radio, right?"

Sir Willup announces that Das Sound Machine will start. Of course they chose Thong Song, and of course Luisa had chosen to sing the line, "let me see that thong." What Beca was not expecting was Luisa pointing at her when she sang it.

When it was the Bella's turn to sing, Stacie took it upon herself to sing "Low," and decided it was necessary to drop it low in front of Luisa. Stacie, back the fuck off my girlfriend. Beca thought to herself, contemplating dragging her away from Luisa. Where had that thought come from. Luisa isn't mine. She probably doesn't even have feelings for me.

The riff off was a blur to Beca. Her only thoughts were of Luisa, which is why she wasn't surprised that DSM actually won the gift card, although she was certain they had never even heard of Dave & Buster's before.

Beca started walking over to congratulate DSM on winning, but Jesse stopped her. He knew she would do something stupid if she were to talk to Kommissar. "Hey Becs, let's go meet the Green Bay Packers."
