This is a character study about Chloe Beale from Pitch Perfect. Only it's an AU where she's into bdsm.
Summary: Chloe
's always known she was a little different.
By age thirty she can
't figure out if she's simply a masochist or an enthusiast sub. The one thing she's certain of...she's a sexual deviant.
ββββ-
Chloe's known since a young age that she was a little different.
Chloe assumes that when most kids fall off of their bicycles after having the training wheels taken off, they don't scratch their scars and cuts because it tickles their brains. Don't press on their bruises because some force within them compels them too.
Chloe likes the soreness. She enjoys the stinging pain. What a goofy little girl she is.
By the time high school rolls around the passionate and outgoing redhead makes the track team. Which means a lot of running practice. Which sometimes means sore or strained muscles.
It also means that Chloe stretches those muscles as many times as she can because it feels good when her legs shake uncontrollably and the discomfort fogs up her brain.
She's a very weird girl. And it's not because she thinks girls are pretty and might want to date them instead of boys. Chloe's parents assure her that there's absolutely nothing wrong with that. They tell her that if she's gay then it's a beautiful thing and she should be proud of who she is and anyone who tries to tell her any different is wrong and not very nice.
No. Chloe thinks she's weird because when she tells people that she likes to push on her bruises or scratch her cuts and scabs or strain her already sore muscles because it feels good, they give her a weird look.
That doesn't stop her from doing it every chance she gets. Chloe notices that eventually her body tells her to stop. She likes that because decisions aren't her strong suit.
Chloe knows she likes helping people so she thinks going to college to become a doctor might be her calling. She also likes how medical school is competitive because Chloe is a driven and competitive person.
Barden University is full of pretty girls. A lot of them don't seem to mind her dorkiness and lack of boundaries, they think it's part of Chloe's charm, and it is.
Chloe has sex with a couple of different girls during her first year. It's wonderful and exciting her first few times but in the back of her mind, Chloe can't help but feel...agitated. Restless.
The feelings only get worse from there as the remaining three years are torture for the odd ginger who struggles to find her balance or any way to cope with the stress of placing in the upper percentile of her class so that she can get into a good medical school.
Chloe becomes a lot more cranky. She lashes out at friends and good people who don't deserve it. A fire rages within her which she just cannot seem to tame.
It's late in her senior year of college when a bed buddy suggests something new to take her mind off the stress, when Chloe's life changes forever.
Something savage and primal comes alive inside of her while she's tied to the bed, blindfolded and powerless while a girl she barely knows enough to call a friend, goes down on her for what seems like hours.
Chloe's never orgasmed harder in her life.
This fire, this animal hunger that rages inside of her, which screams to be set free is at last sated and finally silent.
Chloe experiences newfound focus and everyone from teachers to her friends notice a change in Chloe. Her hostility seems to have waned.
Old Chloe is back and renewed with purpose.
The sudden revitalization allows Chloe to find what she needs deep inside and she finishes college and is easily accepted into a top ten medical college. Her parents even offer to help her pay for an apartment, and she eagerly takes them up on it.
Like all good things though, it doesn't last long. A few months later the animal hunger, this...fiery demon dwelling inside of her, manages to crawl out of its cave to rear its ugly head and torment Chloe once more.
Demon.
That's a good name. Chloe likes it.
Now that she has a name for it she isn't so hesitant to feed it.
Chloe spends the next couple of weeks researching everything she can about BDSM. She even creates a Fetlife profile thinking that might satisfy her demon.
It doesn't.
Don't get her wrong, she's grateful for the tips, tricks, and experience. Grateful for opportunity to network and find solidarity amongst like-minded people, but something is still missing.
Her demon is still very very hungry.
One girl
almost
feeds it. They connect on FetLife and agree to meet up at the local gay club. Dancing and drinking ensue then the decision is made to go back to Chloe's apartment. After a wonderful make-out session, they take things back to Chloe's bedroom.
Breath play is something Chloe's never tried before and being the wild adventurous spirit she was, naturally she says yes when her partner suggests it.
This girl, though, she's too...easygoing. Knowing Chloe is fairly new to the lifestyle she simply doesn't want to take any chances. She takes it easy on Chloe much to the redhead's frustration.
"Harder," Chloe begs. "More." Her partner's fingers are still around her neck.
"I'm sorry
ZOEY.
I don't feel right about it."
"Ughh," Chloe groans. "My name is Chloe. Not Zoey."
"Sorry," she says.
"Please baby," Chloe whines in the most seductive voice she can muster. "You aren't going to break me, baby."
"Hon, I just don't feel comfortable squeezing any tighter."
Chloe still comes and then returns the favor but the sex is wholly bland and uninspiring until moments after the girl leaves when Chloe is stricken with some last-minute inspiration. Suddenly she's grateful that she met this rando after all.
She reaches for her laptop and begins researching until she stumbles across something she wants to try, but it's incredibly dangerous.
