"Beca? Chloe? Are you guys home?" Aubrey called throughout the house.
Just then, the girls appeared at the top of the stairs, with unreadable expressions plastered on their face.
"Oh there you are," Aubrey said, looking relieved as she stopped at the foot of the staircase. When she got nothing but blank stares in response, she continued a bit less confidently. "We had an emergency Bellas meeting, and decided some things. Will you please follow me?" she requested, as she turned and walked in to the living room.
Chloe and Beca wordlessly went down the steps and followed Aubrey towards the living room. All the girls were assembled on one side of the living space facing two chairs that were placed side by side in the center of the room. Set up on the TV screen was a still frame that read "Operation Bhloe".
Wondering what this was all about, the girls hesitantly entered and headed next to the two chairs that were obviously where they were supposed to sit. Gesturing for Beca and Chloe to sit down, Aubrey cleared her throat.
"This is an intervention," Aubrey stated, although the two could gather enough from the set up.
"The Bellas have put together a video for you to watch," Jessica continued, "and we want you to watch it before you do anything drastic," added Ashley.
"You may not think that you're able to get through this rough patch, but we believe in you," affirmed Stacie seriously. "Besides, when you fight, it's like watching your mom and dad fight, and we don't want you to get a divorce."
Beca seriously wanted to tell the leggy girl that they were NOT the parental units of the Bellas, but refrained from commenting.
"We're sorry, and we love you," Fat Amy finished.
Seeing that Beca and Chloe were still seemingly unmoved by the Bellas words, Cynthia Rose decided it would be best if they just let the video do the talking.
"Listen if nothing else, just don't develop a gambling problem, okay?" Cynthia Rose quipped as she pushed play on the TV.
Trying not to crack a smile, the girls watched as photo after photo of themselves popped up on the screen.
The Bellas had put together a video montage of the two girls that documented their friendship and time in the Bellas. When you are part of a group with 7 other girls who love social media and documenting everything about life, you apparently have a lot of photos to choose from.
There were photos of just Chloe, and there were even a few shots of only Beca, but for the most part, they were together. Watching the video, Beca began to see how you could really easily mistake them for dating, because every single photo in the video was taken before they had made it official. In the couple photos of Beca where she was by herself, she wasn't smiling, unless it was forced but when she was next to Chloe, even when she wasn't aware that a photo was being taken, there was a small but present smile adorned on her face.
A photo from the Bellas various holiday singing telegrams filled the screen. Aubrey was dressed as a sexy witch and Cynthia Rose was a vampire for their Halloween assignment. Next to them was Chloe dressed as a Native American and Lily who dressed as a pilgrim for Thanksgiving. Stacie was dressed in a very skimpy red velvet halter dress lined with white fur, with reindeer antlers and a stick of mistletoe for Christmas. Lastly, representing Valentines Day, there was Amy, dressed like a cherub, wearing a pale pink dress with angel wings.
Off to the side trying to hide behind Fat Amy's wings was Beca, also representing the lover's holiday, with her own pair of wings strapped to a red zip up hoodie. In her hands was Cupid's bow and arrow, and she was pretending to shoot herself in the head, looking like there were a thousand places she'd rather be than taking a picture with all these ridiculous looking girls.
