He left me speechless.  Number?  I hardly know the kid.  He's famous and what if he accidentally spills it on Twitter or some shit? I don't need my phone number getting leaked. 

"Justin, I don't know what to say.  We hardly know each other and—" I started to say but he cut me off.

"Ariana, I know.  I'm sorry.  But, I promise you, you won't regret it.  I just can't keep waiting until I surprisingly meet up with you somewhere again.  My thoughts are all of you and have been ever since the party.  Two days, Ariana.  I haven't been writing music, focusing on anything, or even listening to anyone.  That's bad.  Because my mind is all you!"  He explained and I can tell that it was the truth by the creases in his forehead. 

Biting on my bottom lip, I hesitated on my answer.  I do want to be friends with him but it seems like he wants more. I don't want to hurt him. 

"Uh," I mumbled.  "Okay."

His eyes brightened up as I said the words and he grabbed his phone and gave it to me.  Smiling awkwardly, I grabbed the phone and typed my number down on the contacts. 

"Thank you," he whispered as he took the phone back.  Then, the black car honked and the two body guards were in the car.  Justin scratched the back of his neck and shrugged.  "That's my cue.  See you later, Ariana." 

"See ya," I whispered as he ran off to the car.

What have I just done...?

It was around five in the afternoon and I was watching some movies.  It was a movie night after all.  Kylie was out at the bar with Paul and I was a loner.  Great. 

As I pressed pause to go and get some popcorn since I was starving, my phone buzzed, signaling I had a text so I grabbed my phone and slid the message over.  Furrowing my eyebrows, I tilted my head in confusion.

From: Unknown

The dots appeared, signaling they were texting as I nibbled on my bottom lip.

From: Unknown

Shaking my head and laughing, I edited his contact name.  'Justin Biebs.'
