The Other Beale

16

"Oh look!!" Violet spoke to Jessica as they looked in shops in Copenhagen as they killed a bit more time on their last day in only hours 8 hours before their performance. "That is so cute." Jessica responded as Violet held up a top. "Definitely something you would wear." Ashley chimed before pulling Violet from the store before she bought anything. They wandered a bit before finding an ice cream stand set up for the competition as they watched people start filling up the field. The three ate their ice cream while violet held another as Emily found them. "I got you one too." Vi spoke before licking the cold treat in the other hand. "Oh my favorite." Emily smiled at the rocky road ice cream and began eating it. "Sooooo." Emily looked at vi and all three watched the ginger. "What?" She asked looking at them. "You and Beca." Jessica spoke first asking what they were each thinking. "We are not a couple if that's what you are asking. Right now we are working on stuff. Seeing if after we aren't together constantly if we will still feel the same. If not than we dodged a bullet." She wiped some chocolate from Emily's mouth before walking again. "You aren't even gonna try to date?" Ashley asked and Vi just shrugged. "It's easier this way honestly me and em are now co captains of the Bellas. I picked up a few extra classes with the help of Beca's dad helping with a scholarship to cover my programming classes so that and additional two classes each semester and I start an internship in the fall." She scratched her shoulder with her empty hand. "That's a lot are you sure you won't be to stressed between all that and the Bellas?" Ashley asked as they passed a shop that they could see Beca, Chloe and Stacy in. Stacy looked up and smiled at them before the group continued walking without being noticed by Beca and Chloe. "Hey want to meet up with my mom?" Emily asked as they rounded a corner. Violet took a bite out of the cone of her ice cream before sighing and tossing it unable to eat much more of the sweet treat. "I'm down. We do need to meet up with the others ima an hour in a half." Vi spoke checking the smart watch in her wrist and setting an alarm for when they need to be at the stage.

The small group of bellas sat at a table with Emily's mom. They were talking about everything and she was asking everyone more about themselves. "I'm so proud of you two." Mrs junk spoke grabbing ahold of Emily's hand and looking at violet. "You two have become amazing bellas. Violet I'm so glad Emily met you and has to by her side until you both graduate." "I wouldn't have had it any other way she is a great friend and Bella." Violet smiled at Emily. Emily opened her mouth and the alarm went off. "Shit. We need to go guys." Violet stood and grabbed her bag that held her clothes and headed towards the concrete grounds. She dug around in her bag and pulled out her id badge to get in. Getting inside was east but making their way through the people already filling the area was the difficult part. Violet held Emily's wrist pulling her with her through the crowd. Glancing at her watch the red head grumbled. "We are running behind. Chloe is gonna be pissed." She glanced at Ashley and Jessica who were keeping pace with them. Finally making it to the back stage and to there area to get ready they found a frustrated Chloe pacing. The older red head turned on the arrival of the group. "Where were you four. We didn't know if something happened to you or not." She sighed looking at violet who was pulling off the cut off hooding she had been wearing over her outfit. "Chloe you could have called one of us we all had our phones." She said placing her bag down and pulling out her vest for the performance. Chloe stared at her sister for a second before sighing. "Look try and be on time." She walked off leaving the group to finish getting ready. Violet walked to a mirror and fixed the red waves. She looked up from herself in the mirror seeing red hair and sighed. "Chloe I don't feeling lie arguing with you." She stood up straight and turned around but instead of her big sister she saw two males. Her blue eyes lite up with joy at the sight of her brothers. "Darry! Kota!" She yelled happily and rushed forward hugging her brothers around the neck immediately. "Do you really think we would skip on one of your shows and the opportunity to leave the country? No way sis." Darry spoke letting go and using one knuckle to rub the top of Violet's head. "Triplets support each other." Kota spoke. Violet smiled more and looked up towards where Chloe and Beca were talking. The twins followed her line of sight and looked back to her. "We didn't come for Chloe we can for you. She hasn't needed us this long but you have." Daren spoke pulling out his phone to check the time. "We better get going. You are on soon." The boys said their goodbyes and left. Violet turned on her heels and stretched cracking her neck as she walked up the stairs finding Stacie. With a smile on her face the girl shook out her arms. "Let's do this!"
