Part of this World Chapter 1, a pitch perfect fanfic

Chapter 1 – The Adventure

(Song performed by Angels and Airwaves)

"Twenty years from now you'll be more disappointed by the

things you didn't do than by the ones that you did."

– Mark Twain

No ones POV

It's a typical story really. Boy meets girl, boy falls in love with girl, girl tells boy she's a lesbian, boy and girl become bros. That sums up the story of how Beca and Jesse became friends.

And that brings us to now.

Still No ones POV

"Becawww!" Jesse yelled as he stepped into his friends apartment.

There is four weeks left of their summer vacation so the pair decided to head to Europe and tour some of the most beautiful cities of the world.

Jesse heard no movement within the apartment so made himself at home and poured himself a glass of juice.

"Beca! You better be showered, dressed, packed and ready to head to the airport!"

As Jesse headed to the door of Beca's bedroom, the door flew open and a half naked blonde girl (covered only by a baggy tee and panties) with legs to die for practically flew out of the room and almost out of the apartment.

"Hey Alice! Call me!" Beca shouted from her bedroom.

The blonde halted at the door for a second before turning and sending daggers at Beca.

"My name is Alicia…Bitch!" And with that, Alicia was out of the apartment.

Beca looked to Jesse in disgust as she moved past him and into the kitchen. She too was only covered by a baggy tee and panties.

"Dude, you scared her away. What the hell!" Beca scolded Jesse as she too poured herself a glass of juice before going back into her room to get ready for their adventure.

"I would say I'm sorry, but you're the one who's going to be sorry if you don't move your midget ass! Im going to take your bags to the car while you get dressed. And hurry up, the taxi's waiting."

"Oh Jesse; you do have coffee and juice boxes, right?"

"Course I do, Beca. Now run along and make yourself look pretty."

Jesse smiled at his friend before turning and getting on with packing the car. Beca, on the other hand, only needed to fix her hair and makeup and change into the outfit she had picked out the previous night. Contrary to what Jesse thought, the small brunette was getting ready to leave before her blonde 'friend' decided to pop round for a morning booty call. Therefore, it only took Beca 10 minutes to get ready and get into the taxi.

The journey from Beca's apartment to the airport was relatively peaceful. Beca was still tired, whereas Jesse was mentally mapping their route around Europe.

"So, if we land in Rome later today, or rather in the morning, then we have four full days to see Italy before we have to fly to Madrid…"

"What you saying?" Beca had heard the muttering of her organised (and, in her mind, slightly OCD) friend, and had decided to see if he wanted to properly verbalise his thoughts.

"I was just wondering how were going to fit Europe into four weeks."

"Well, if I have been listening to you at all recently, I will know that Rome is six hours ahead of us, therefore after a 9 ½ hour flight, it will approximately 5:00 when we land so there will be no point trying to sleep, meaning we get a day to explore Rome, before getting a train to Naples so I can see the ruins of Pompeii. Then we can fly to Milan from there and spend a day there before flying to Madrid. We can spend a day there and go to other cities with historical stuff and attractive locals and have fun until we make our way round to London and then we fly home and go back to college."

Jesse just looked at Beca in shock for a few minutes while she absentmindedly sipped on her now cold coffee. When she noticed the stare she put her coffee back in the cup holder and looked back at him questionably.

"I never knew that you'd thought this trip through, I'm amazed Becs."

"Ha ha. How long until were at the airport?"

"We are just round the corner Miss." Replied the driver.

The driver wasn't wrong. Soon after his response, they were pulling up into a vacant parking space near the entrance to the airport. The driver and Jesse unloaded the luggage while Beca packed her iPad and Jesse's book before finding her purse and handing the money to the driver. They gave him their thanks and he replied kindly.

"Enjoy your trip, you're only young once." With that, he nodded his head and then was gone.

Since it was morning, there were many travellers in the airport, both checking onto their flight and returning home. Despite this, it didn't take long for the pair to check in their luggage and go and find a decent restaurant near their gate.

Once they'd settled into their booth with their coffee in hand and the food on its way, the friends relaxed into a discussion about music and their upcoming year at college.

"So, do you think you'll actually join a group or club this year Becs?"

"I don't know, maybe. I think I'll definitely try to get a job though. It was difficult to not ask my dear Father for money. I'll probably join the radio, try and get my mixes heard? Maybe you're lame ass a capella club could sing some of my mixes?"

"Why must you mock my a capella?" Jesse shot back with a hurt look in his eye, a look Beca knew wasn't real… he was only joking.

"I'm sorry. Maybe I'll go and join that girls only club, the members were hot last year."

"As much as I would love to see you in one of their performance outfits," he paused to creepily wink at her, "you will throw that plan in the trash when you find out who the new captain is, or co-captain, but lets face it, she probably runs their training sessions like an army trainer would."

"Dude, just stop your babbling and tell me who!"

"Chloe and Aubrey." It didn't go unnoticed that Beca smiled at the mention of the redhead, but that quickly faded at the mention of Aubrey Posen.

"Urgh never mind. Do your group want me? I'll wear slutty clothes to rehearsals!"

The waitress looked at Beca with concern as she only appeared at the table to hear the rear of that sentence. While Jesse was amused by the look that Beca received, Beca looked ashamed yet slightly amused.

Both muttered their thanks to the woman before digging into their food.

"As much as I'd love for you to join the Treblemakers, 1. It's a boys only group, sorry. And 2. Bumper is the captain this year."

"Barden has made really crappy choices regarding leadership this year."

They both knew that Beca was not only referring to the a capella captains, but too the newly appointed head of the English department… her Father.

They still had 30 minutes before boarding began, so the pair ordered more coffee and chatted away for the duration of their wait.

The other side of the airport

Still No ones POV

"Why did we have to come so bloody early!? We have three hours before boarding Aub!"

Chloe was not in the mood to play nice with her best friend right now. She was dragged out of bed two hours before her alarm was scheduled to go off.

"I'm sorry that you're not a morning person Chlo, but were here now so you can either mope around or you can help me find the first class lounge."

Both girls knew that wasn't a request, it was an order. Aubrey didn't joke or play around when it came to organisation and planning.

It didn't take long for the girls to find a sign post leading them to the lounge, and for Chloe to find a comfy sofa in the corner where she proceeded to kick off her boots and lie down on, hoping for some well deserved and needed sleep.

"I'm going to look around the shops." Aubrey stated, but deep down she knew Chloe was already in sleep land.

Aubrey casually made her way around the majority of the shops, scanning the contents before swiftly moving on. She did this until she had realised that she had pretty much walked the perimeter of that floor of the airport.

When she returned to the lounge, she found her best friend awkwardly sitting between two guys who were (in Aubrey's mind) presumably attempting to flirt with Chloe. She eventually made eye contact with Chloe and immediately saw the pleading look in her eye, Aubrey knew that look well.

She quickly went to the coffee stand and requested two hot chocolates because, being chloes best friend, she knew that the redhead preferred the chocolatty beverage but felt she felt like it was a childish order so she refrained.

Once she'd payed for the order and received the drinks, she returned to her friend with a faux apologetic look on her face.

"Sorry that took too long, babe. The barister got the order wrong, who are you're friends?"

Chloe immediately caught on to the 'babe' and kissed her girlfriend on the cheek before sipping on her boiling beverage.

"No problem sweetheart, its perfect. This is Gavin and Chuck." Chloe nodded to each boy when noting their names.

"Actually, I'm Gary," the blonde mophead boy corrected, "and this is Chase." He motioned to his friend with his hand.

"And why are you here?" Aubrey was not in the mood for horny teenage boys to waste their time.

"We were hoping that this cute little redhead would like to accompany us." Gary spoke rather confidently (or, in Aubrey's eyes, cocky).

"Well, I can assure you Gavin, that Chloe would much rather spend her wait with me, hopefully doing things that you guys would only ever see on porn sites. So, if you don't mind, leave."

Many members of the first class lounge looked up rather awkwardly at the mention of "porn", and were clearly curious as to why this commotion was occurring.

The young men quickly took the hint when they saw Chloe's hand subtly up Aubrey's thigh and under her skirt, an act which was unnoticed by bystanders since the boys were now stood in the way.

"DUE TO A STORM QUICKLY BREWING IN ROME, ALL FLIGHTS IN OR OUT OF THE CITIES AIRPORTS HAVE BEEN SUSPENDED! CAN ALL TRAVELLERS SCHEDULED ON FLIGHT RO-6378 PLEASE VISIT THE NEAREST ATTENDANTS DESK FOR INFORMATION REGARDING THEIR TRANSFERS ONTO ALTERNATE FLIGHTS HEADING TOWARDS NEAR BUT SAFE DESTINATIONS! THANK-YOU!"

Chloe and Aubrey paused their conversation in order to listen to the notice, but since it wasn't anything to do with their flight to Madrid, they shrugged it off and continued to discuss the upcoming college year and the 'Barden Bella's'; Bardens all female a cappella group.

"But Chloe, we need beautiful women, not just good singers. Maybe we can recruit attractive women, and since you are the better judge of that ill leave that task to you."

Chloe had recently accepted her attraction to women, something that she has been conflicted over for many years due to her strict religious upbringing. Something which, despite having, didn't stop her for having many one night stands with obviously beautiful women during the previous academic year.

Back at the restaurant

Still No ones POV

"ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME!?" Beca almost shouted once the announcement had ended.

Jesse stood up, collected his hand luggage from beside him and proceeded to the nearest desk. Beca, sensibly, followed.

By the time she had successfully caught up, Jesse had already asked the attendant the most obvious question… "What happens now?"

The attendant looked up their names on the system and found that they, and their suitcases, had been moved to "Flight MA-6602 to Madrid." Upon reciting this, the woman also told the duo that "There were no coach seats remaining so they had be upgraded to first class for free, and were welcome to go and relax in the first class lounge near the gate for the duration of their wait."

With an exchange of smiles, the pair proceeded to find the lounge.

It didn't take them long, and when they entered the room, they heard a voice speak in the corner.

"Oh God!"

"Oh, crap!"

Beca and Aubrey spoke simultaneously.

This is going to be an interesting wait...

A/N

Hey guys, I'm back!

And, I know I have probably said this before but I am fully invested in this story, I have had the plan in my head all summer but I've actually had a life so it kept getting put off, but you guys don't care so I'll stop rambling.

If any of you have read my previous completed fics, then you'll know stuff about me and you'll know that my personal life ends up in these fics somehow, and this is no different; I've always wanted to go travelling with someone I love, being a friend or family or partner.

Anyway, I hope you liked the first chapter of "Part of this World". Feel free to send me suggestions for future chapters or any one shots you'd like (for this ship or any other, if I'm familiar with the ship then I'll do my best).

Thanks for reading, please review.

Peace.
