Five years ago Beca Mitchell watched the love of her life walk away.

Five years ago she lost the only girl she's ever loved.

Chloe Beale stood in front of her and told her she needed some time away.

Away from LA, away from the fame, away from Beca.

She will always remember the look on her face as she spoke. Beca couldn't see the love she'd grown use too. She could tell Chloe was never coming back.

Today, five years after Chloe left her, She's playing a show in their hometown.

All the Bellas came to support her, even Chloe. She couldn't tell if she was happy about that or not.

Every year on this day she tries to distract herself by preforming a show somewhere. This year she happened to be on tour and the Atlanta Georgia show fell on this day. Every year she preforms the same song that she wrote the day after to help her heal a bit. It was always her last song of the night.

"You guys were amazing tonight. It's always a pleasure to preform in my hometown." She smiled.

"As a lot of you may know, today is a rough day for me." She began until she heard a fan yell something.

"The anniversary of your breakup right?" Someone yelled and Beca could feel the pang of heartbreak again.

She took a deep breath, "Yes" she answered.

"How long were you together?" Someone else asked.

"Almost nine years." She says.

The fans kept yelling questions at her and she began to feel overwhelmed. She stumbles back from the mic trying to keep her panic attack at bay.

"She's having a panic attack." Chloe said in urgency to Aubrey and Stacie, "You need to get up there, I'd go but I don't want to make it worse." She says.

The two girls rushed to the security guard who let them on stage, Stacie pulled Beca into a hug to calm her while Aubrey went on the mic.

"Hey guys, Beca is really sensitive on this subject and all your questions are overwhelming her. Please please please respect her and don't ask anymore questions. We understand your curious but this is something she'd like to keep out of the spotlight other then when she preforms the song." She says.

Beca calms down and pulls away from Stacie, wiping her eyes before taking the mic from Aubrey.

"Sorry guys, I don't think I can answer any of your questions now. Maybe someday in the future." She gives them all a soft smile.

"For now lets end the show." She takes a step back to grab her guitar before beginning the song.

I could tell by the way you kissed my lips that day
There was something missing, something not the same
You were there, but you weren't, didn't care, didn't hurt at all
Said it was what it was, then the feeling of us was gone

Beca closed her eyes as she felt the emotions run through her.

I watched you fade away
But I turned my head and closed my eyes
And prayed you'd stay
And I told myself that it'd be fine
I wish I could have just said somethin', oh
When you said you needed time
I heard goodbye
Goodbye

It was way too easy to say those words you said
And the look on your face, I could tell there was nothin' left
Almost wished we were fightin', screamin', and cryin', but
Not a drop of a tear, didn't know how to feel, I was numb
