Problem
song used: Problem by Ariana Grande featuring Iggy Azalea and Big Sean

i got one more problem with you girl
one less one less problem

"One less problem without you! I got, one less problem without you! I got, one less problem without you! I've got one less, one less problem!" Ariana sang, one hand lightly grazing the microphone.

"That was great Ariana! I don't know why you wanted me to help you fix it." As he was talking, Ariana pulled off the headphones and placed them on the hook of the mic. She walked out of the recording room, sighing and running a hand through her hair. "What's wrong?"

Justin wrapped an arm around her shoulders, giving the hand that she brought up to hold his a squeeze. She laid her head in the crook of his neck, before speaking, "It just..doesn't feel right."

"What doesn't feel right? Iggy?"

"No, no. Of course not. I love her in this. It sounds great. But.. The chorus. I don't like how it sounds."

"But you recorded it and everything. Is it just now not sounding right?"

"Yeah, when I was recording with Iggy, it sounded great. I recorded all my verses and the choruses and I loved it. Now, I don't like how the chorus sounds with me singing it."

"Ariana Grande finally has something she can't sing?" Justin teased, letting go of the petite girl to stare jokingly and shockingly at her.

She giggled, shoving Justin's shoulder. "Shut up Justin."

"I'm only kidding," he grinned like a dork at her. "Look, let's just go over it. We'll work on it until you like it, okay?"

Ariana nodded, grabbing a music sheet and plopping down on the couch, along with Justin. "It's only the chorus I'm having trouble with. Like, I feel like I'm just saying the exact same lines with the exact same singing style. It's kind of, I don't know, repetitive?"

"How about, you try to add some background vocals to it?"

"What do you mean?" Ariana shifted in her seat, throwing her legs over Justin's and leaned on the arm of the couch.

"Okay, um. Sing the bridge for me."

She raised an eyebrow, but listened to Justin. "Head in the clouds, got no weight on my shoulders. I should be wiser, and realize that I've got.."

Justin whispered, "One less problem without ya! I got! One less problem without ya! I got! One less problem without ya!"

"I got one less, one less problem," Ariana finished. "Oh my gosh, Justin!" She was literally jumping in her seat.

"See? Does that sound better? With your voice, it'll be great-" He stopped when Ariana stopped bouncing. "What?"

A devilish smirk appeared on her lips. "I love it, but.."

Justin looked confused. "But what?"

Ariana crawled onto his lap, arms wrapped around his neck. "Since you've been neglecting writing our duet, why don't you be in this song?"

Justin raised an eyebrow, hands moved to hold onto her waist. "What are you talking about?"

"Sing in my song. Like, the chorus. Like how you just did."

"Are you serious?"

"Yes, I'm serious! Please Justin?" Ariana whined, slumping in her position on Justin's lap. "It's such a fun and cute way for you to be on the album, and I think the fans will love it."
