.Beca's point of view.

Tom and Kaitlyn cut a path through the crowded club as they make their way over to us. I don't like Tom around Chloe.

,,Incoming drama in three, two -" Jesse says and shrug my shoulder. I can't look up or say anything. I just want to be with Chloe and not with her ex-boyfriend.

,,Hey, guys. What are you all doing here?" Tom asks.

,,Who cares? Tonight's supposed to be about us, Tom. You can see your roommates any old time." Kaitlyn claims. Really? Did Tom told her that Chloe is his roommate? Does he want her back or something?

,,Really? Cause it kind of feels like we never see you anymore, Tom." I know Jesse and Benji are good friends with Tom, but I can't help to tense up about his presence. I only hope Chloe don't notice.

,,Yeah, it's only Beca's birthday... but I guess that's not a big priority for you." Emily say. I look up to her. Why did she has to say that? I don't want him to know when it's my birthday. He doesn't have the right to be here. Kaitlyn is a good girlfriend for him. They're both unbelievable and evil. Chloe doesn't say anything, unfortunately.

,,Tom. I guess we should just steer clear of each other." Chloe says, but just as loud so only we can hear it. It is not even convincing.

,,Perfect. Glad we can all agree on something." Kaitlyn says with a grin. ,,Come on, Tom... let's go find somewhere with a little more privacy." As Kaitlyn leads Tom away, I toss back the rest of my drink and slam the glass on the table.

,,Ugh, I can't believe they're here on my birthday!" I say frustrated.

,,I mean, this club is open to the public. It's not like you reserved it." Ashley says and in the hook of my eye in see Emily give her a dead glare.

,,Yeah, I know that, Ashley."

,,Aren't your friends, like wondering where you are?" Thank you Em! Maybe now she will disappear.

,,No need to be nasty just because you're jealous of me." She laughs and I just want to grab her shirt and punch her. ,,I'm going to use the restroom, Benji. Dance with me when I get back?"

,,Yeah, sounds good." I shoot a look to Chloe and whisper.

,,This is our b-big chance. Emily needs to m-make an m-move now or she could lose B-Benji forever!" Chloe nods and lean over to Emily.

,,Hey, Em. Ask Benji to dance while Ashley's gone." Emily glow after Ashley as she disappear into the restroom and downs her drink.

,,You know what? I think I will." Emily stand up and grab Benji by the wrist, pulling him onto the dance floor.

,,Where are we going?" Benji asks surprising.

,,We're dancing, okay? Just go with it."

,,W-woo! G-get it, Em!" I yell and take another shot.

,,Where did that came from?" Jesse points to Emily and Benji.

,,I may have told her to steal Benji while Ashley's out of the picture." Chloe says happy.

,,You are officially m-my hero." I give her a hug. The three of us watch from the booth as Benji and Emily dance close together, nearly touching. ,,Should w-we g-give them some privacy or k-keep staring?"
