I Knew You Were Treble When You Walked In
Sibling Fights
Brooke’s Pov
I was almost twenty minutes late meeting Benji I saw him sitting alone outside me my dorm
“I’m sorry, I’m so sorry I know I’m late and I still need to shower from rehearsal I still need about fifteen minutes” I huffed out all in one breath
“Whoa slow down B its cool I can wait” Benji said as we walked in to the dorm
“I’m still sorry you know I’m never late”
“I know what happened? Because Fat Amy came through here awhile back”
“I had to go over to the Treble house” I said under my breath
“What?”
“I was at the Treble house” I said louder
“What were you-“I cut him off
“The lounge is down there you can wait there until I’m done” I said rushing into my dorm I grabbed my shower stuff, then went and took a quick shower got changed and then went to meet Benji
“You ready?”
“I’ve been ready just been waiting on you”
“Shut up, so where do you want to go for lunch the café or somewhere off campus or-“Benji cut me off
“Why were you at the Treble house” I groaned hoping he would have forgot about that
“Do you remember Donald?”
“Yeah of course you know I know all of the Trebles”
“Right how could I forget, well I needed his help with my beat-boxing”
“Oh that’s it, just your beat-boxing why couldn’t you just tell me that”
“Because heaskedmeouttoo” I said really fast
“What?”
“He asked me out” I said slower and Benji stopped walking
“What? And what did you say”
“I-I said yes”
“Why would you do something so stupid?”
“Excuse me what ar-“He cut me off
“He a player, and he could get you kicked off the Bellas have you forgotten that. I mean you just took your oath last night didn’t you” He snapped at me
“Benji what did I-“
“Or have you forgotten he was just hooking up with one of your teammates last night?” He snapped at me I was completely speechless Benji has never talked like this before and I don’t even know what I did
“You know what forget lunch, I don’t want to go anymore. Oh and don’t come crying to me when you get hurt” He said and stormed off
“Benji!” I called after him but he just kept walking. I can’t believe he just went off that, I walked stunned slowly back to my room, when I got there Amy was there
“What the matter with you B?” she asked
“Benji just totally went off on me over nothing” I said still in shock
“Ok wait you got to tell me this from the beginning
“Ok we were going to lunch I was late, now before I tell you the rest of this can you keep a secret?”
“Duh bitch”
“Don call me a bitch, bitch”
“Look just finish the story…bitch” I laughed
“Whatever I had Jesse take me over to the Treble house so I could ask Donald to help me with my beat-boxing”
“Donald? Oh you mean the brown dingo?”
“Um yeah sure and he asked me out I said yes. Then I was telling Benji and he snapped on me”
“Damn that’s rough what are you going to do?”
“I don’t know what do you think?”
“Well it sounds like something more is going on with him so give him some time to calm down”
“Yeah I guess I should”
“You know I do see one big problem with your story” Amy said
“What?”
“You never got to eat lets go I’m hungry” Amy said I she got up and put her shoes on I laughed this is way I love her she’s so funny
“Alright let’s go” I said as I grabbed my purse and we left.

We barely finished the horrible performance before one of the frat guys cut us off
“Enough!” He snapped and Aubrey stepped forward
“I’m so sorry Howie I know were not performance ready but-“
“I wanted the hot Bellas not this barnyard explosion” He said in disgust
“I’m not paying for this lets go you got to go, come on” He said as people started to laugh at us. As we were leaving Aubrey started her bitching
“I hope you all remember how you feel right now so you never want to feel this way again. Chloe your voice didn’t sound Aguilerian at all, Chloe? Chloe for serious what’s wrong with you!” she snapped at her. Chloe turned to us
“I have nodes”
“Oh my god” Aubrey said grabbing her hands
“I found out this morning”
“What are nodes?” Beca asked confused
“Vocal nodules! The rubbing together of your vocal cords at an above average rate without proper
lubrication” Aubrey said as if it was the most obvious thing in the world
“They sit on your windpipe and they crush your dreams” Chloe finished
“That sounds painful why do you keep performing?” I asked her
“Because I love to sing”
“Yeah it’s like when my lady doctor told me not to have sex for six week and I did it anyway” Stacie told me
“You should’ve really listened to your doctor” Fat Amy told her
“Eh” she answered
“They key is early diagnosis, I am living with nodes, but I am a survivor. I just have to pull back because I am limited because I have nodes” She said as she finished her way overdramatic speech
“Well at least it’s not herpes” Fat Amy said making me laugh and they all looked at her. “Or do you have that as well?” she asked making me laugh harder.

After that disaster of a performance we gave I went back to my dorm and changed to go and meet up with Donald. We’ve been meeting almost everyday this past week, and I don’t think I’ve ever had more fun we anyone ever, when it’s just me and him he’s a really sweet, and funny, and dare I say a gentleman. I’m glad that I’m the only person besides his family that gets to see this side of him, we have yet to go on our date but I’m actually looking forward to it.
“No, no, no you’re doing it all wrong, it like this” He showed me the beat again the same beat we have been working on for almost a half hour.
“Ok” I tried it again and messed up
“Shit! I’m never going to get this” I snapped
“Whoa, whoa calm down let’s take a break” He said
“I’m sorry I’m just a stressed”
“Do you want to talk about it?” he asked
“Where to start? My brother still won’t talk to me, Chloe has nodes, and we bombed our performance today. Only good things going on are classes and I have a cool ass roommate. And you” I said looking at him
“That’s a lot, have you tried talking to Benji?”
“Yes he just gives me one word answers or just ignores me”
“Maybe you should stop worrying about him and focus on yourself for a bit I mean you’re always looking out for other people maybe you should start looking out for number one”
“Amy said that too, maybe your right”
“I know I am so why don’t you let me take you out this weekend”
“Okay that sounds good”
“And I’ll find us a nice dark, secluded, spot where no one will recognize us” He said leaning closer
“From the way you’re describing it I don’t know if I should be excited or scared” I joked
“Shut up” He said leaning in just as our lips were about to touch I heard someone call my name, we pulled away from each other quickly thinking it might be Aubrey but I saw a pissed off Benji coming towards us.
