Hey it's Ariana! Sorry I couldn't answer your call right now, but I' promise to get back to you as soon as I can! . -BEEP-

With one hand pushed into my pocket, and the other behind my head. I held the phone up to my ear again for the fifth time in under an hour.

"Hey, I'm not exactly sure what I did wrong-no wait. That was wrong. Anyway, uh what I mean is I know I upset you and I'm sorry. But I think we need to talk about some stuff- so just if you would pick up or call me back that'd be great." I groaned again as I walked down the streets of Las Vegas, NV.

It was late and I was alone. I'm trying to figure out what to do about Ariana. It's been 3 days and she hasn't said a word to me.

So, I've been trynna figure out a way to get her to talk to me. I would have asked the guys for help, but those idiots have don't nothing but put me in this mess in the first place.

As soon as she left and I realized why she was so pissed, I tried to catch her at the show that night. But all she did was pretend that she didn't see me.

Then I had Victoria starting unnecessary arguments with Dove for absolutely no reason at all. It was all just a huge mess. So after a few failed attempt of that, and then we stated our three day break.

I told myself to not even care. Like there's been plenty of times that shit didn't work for me. So ok, Ariana wasn't talking to me. It really shouldn't have bothered me that much. She's just another girl that saw something in me she didn't like.

But, then I couldn't keep pretending that it was ok. I called and called her. I wanted to get her attention, I guess I just wanted her to let me know what I could do to make shit right.

Now I'm about to take things a step further and go and see what's up myself.

I just can't take this silent treatment anymore.

After standing there for a couple of seconds, I knocked on the door and took a step back. After a second the door opened and Victoria came into view. She said nothing, all she did was stare down at me.

"Hey, umm is Ariana in there?" I asked as I ran my fingers through my hair.

"Who's asking?"

I slapped my hands down to my sides. "Victoria, seriously. You clearly see it's me."

The rain began to come down even harder and I stood there shivering. My arms wrapped around my body.

"Will you please let me in? It's pouring down out here."

Next thing I heard were the sound of crocks gutting the floor.

"Vic. Let him in."

I eyed her as I stepped on to the bus and she did the same to me.

She jumped at me making me flinch back.

"Ha, pussy."

"Victoria, be nice!"

Ariana shouted and I stuck my tongue out at her.

"Just be lucky she's here to save your lanky ass." 

I rolled my eyes as she pushed passed me.

"Man, she does not like me." I mumbled shaking my head.

Ariana shrugged. "Hmm she's just protective."
