"He doesn't hate you, you know. He just thinks he does." Ariana hears a masculine voice and she immediately stops crying and fixes her hair and wipes her tears.

Ariana turned around and saw Justin's friend, Za. He started walking closer and Ariana avoided eye contact.

He sat next to her and stared at her. Ariana shifted uncomfortably and sniffed.

"How do you know? Are you some type of mind reader?" Ariana smiles weakly. She saw him crack a smile and he shook his head.

"Nah, I wish I was though. But I just know it. " Za says and comforts her and rubs her back. Ariana sighs and inhales.

"Why are you here? Shouldn't you go be talking shit about me with your friends?" Ariana laughs weakly.

"I prefer talking to pretty girls." He smiles at me.

We stay in a comfortable silence until the bell rings. We both stand up and hug him.

"Thank you, for helping me. I appreciate it." Ariana said against his chest.

"Anytime Ari." He says and we both head to our classes. Ariana sees Justin and Lily walking her way and she fixes her face and hair. I will not give up Ariana thought.

Every step she took was full of confidence and fierce. Ariana catches Lily staring at her and she glares at Lily. Lily quickly takes her eyes off her and onto the floor.

Ariana smirked to herself and winked at Justin who just rolled his eyes.

~~~~~ after school

"What the fuck?! Why today!" Ariana shouts and try to turn on my car.

"Why are you dying on me baby?" Ariana frowns and gets out of her car. She shivers and looks up at the sky.

"Fuck it's gonna rain." She mutters and holds her head. She sees Justin with Lily and cringes. I can't believe I have to do this.

She walks over to him and ignores Lily.

"U-um Justin? Can you take me home?" She asks nervously. She doesn't know why she's stuttering. Probably because of what he told her earlier.

"No I'm leaving with Lily, now move." Justin says and pushes past Ariana, walking with Lily.

Ariana sighed and exhaled in a shaky breath. Her house was about an hour away by walking.

She stayed for an extra hour in the rain, hoping he would come back and pick her up, but he didn't.

It was cold and dark at the moment. She was shivering and soaked in the rain water. She took off her heels and started walking, slowly.

Ariana started crying. She hates crying, especially because it makes her feel pathetic, like Lily.

It was super dark by the time she arrived home. She couldn't move at all. She was dumb.

Lips blue-ish, red nose, teeth chattering, toes numb. She wanted to stay in a oven forever.

She finally got home around 6:00 PM.
She opened the door and heard footsteps.

"Where the hell were you?" Justin asked her, wrapping her in a warm blanket. She would've smiles or flirted, but she's too mad and numb right now. How could he do this to her?

She ignored him and made her way upstairs. Her body was too cold to form tears.

Ariana went into her bathroom and undressed herself. She took an hour long, warm bath.

She dressed in a sweatshirt and leggings. Not caring how she looked like.

Ariana made her way to the music room, which she only used. She took out a sheet of paper that had her song she recently wrote.

Just A Little Bit Of Your Heart - Ariana Grande

Ariana put her fingers on the starting keys.

I don't ever ask you
Where you've been
And I don't feel the need to
Know who you're with

I can't even think straight
But I can tell
That you were just with her
And I'll still be a fool
I'm a fool for you

A sob escaped from her mouth. Ariana never thought she was gonna be this heartbroken over some boy.

Just a little bit of your heart
Just a little bit of your heart
Just a little bit of your heart is all I want
Just a little bit of your heart
Just a little bit of your heart
Just a little bit is all I'm asking for
"Mmmm Mmmmm Mmm Mmmmm." Ariana hums and stops playing.

J U S T I N

Justin couldn't help but feel guilty for leaving her. He was mad at the time. He shut his eyes and exhaled. He decided to go apologize, working his way up the stairs.

He got ready to knock on Ariana's door but stopped once he heard piano notes. His eyebrows furrowed and knew it was from the music room.

He quietly walked to the room looking through the crack and saw Ariana playing.

He heard her sing. He was in love with her voice. He continued listening until she stopped. All he heard were her cries. His eyes softened and he was about to walk over to her until he heard her voice.

"Please, g-get out." He heard her cry out.

"What's wrong?" He couldn't help but ask. He felt bad. He knew this was because of him.

"Get. Out. Please." He saw her hands shake.

"No, tell me. What's wrong?" He asked even louder, making her flinch.

He saw her stand up and walk out of the room. Justin didn't want to admit he cared for her, but deep inside he does.
