Forever And Always (Ariana Grande Love Story

Her side.

(A/N: Hey guys, so I just got home from school. It was my first day and it was ehhh. I have so much homework and projects ALREADY. Lol but enough of my ranting here's the next chapter. It's Ariana's point of view, hope you like it!)

Ariana's POV:

I quickly closed the door and ran to the window as I watched his car leave. I wanted so much to tell him that I knew him. But I was too afraid, and too overwhelmed with fear of what just happened. My moms cries snapped me out of my thoughts. "Shit!" I thought to myself. I tried to come up with a cover story quickly, knowing my mother would freak out iF I told her the truth. My mother grabbed me into a full on bear hug.

"ARIANA!!! Where were you?!?! I've been worried sick! And why are you wearing boys clothes?!" My mom quickly said. Her eyes had bags under them, and I could quickly tell she did not rest at all today. Her hair was ruffled, like she didn't even do her hair at all.

I sighed as I looked at my worn out mother looking at me for an answer. "Sorry, I walked over to Liz's house to hang out for a bit and my phone died. Also Liz accidentally spilt coke on my clothes and she was in the process of doing her laundry, so I had to borrow her brothers clothes." I said hoping she'd let it go. Me and Liz were inseparable ever since we starred in the musical "13" together. It wasn't that hard to believe, I'm almost always at her house. She looked at me thoughtfully. The wrinkles on the top of her forehead began to align, and just ask quickly as they formed, they went away. Her face softened as she pulled me into a hug again. She softly whispered in my ear "I'm just glad you're ok. I was worried something bad happened to you." I hugged her tightly to reassure her I was fine. "Yeah something bad" I thought to myself. I felt my stomach twisted into knots as I started thinking back to what really happened.

*FLASHBACK*

I was walking down the street to a coffee place near to where Liz lived. We always walked together there, but unfortunately she to rehearse for

Victorious. I would be on set today too, but Dan decided to give me a day off. He said I worked too hard. I laughed at myself at the thought. I never thought of it as work. I absolutely loved my job and sometimes I'd forget that I'm actually on people's TV screens. I decided to take a little shortcut through a neighborhood me and Liz went through all the time to get to the coffee shop. I'm not going to lie, it was sketchy. Old, abandoned looking houses with run down cars and dirty front lawns. It was kind of a ghetto neighborhood. And normally I wouldn't go through here alone, but I honestly didn't feel like walking 5 thousand miles to the coffee shop. Its literally not that much miles, but it sure does feel like it. My legs would sometimes flail from walking so much and I'd always catch myself from tripping. Liz always mocked me for it, which only made us laugh harder at the situation. She discovered this shortcut from an employee who works at the coffee shop. Apparently he lives in the neighborhood so he told Liz about it and then Liz showed me through it. "HEY MAMI" I was suddenly snapped out of my thoughts. I turned around to a tall dark man with very dark brown eyes. Almost black, it was as if I was looking into his soul. I ignored him and started walking, not wanting to encourage him, I kept a normal pace. "Hey, where ya going babyy" the tall dark man made an emphasis on the word baby, making me even more annoyed. I turned around quickly. "I don't know who you think you are, but just leave me alone ok!" I snapped. He looked shocked, not expecting me to be so demanding. I picked up my pace. He caught up with me grabbing my arm and turning me around. I spun around to not only see the tall dark man, but 4 other guys with him. Fear started creeping into my mind down to the pit of my stomach as they all started smirking at me. I noticed they all had the same tattoos. "A gang" I thought. Just my luck. I pulled my arm away and started running for dear life knowing they were faster than me. And just as I had feared, they tackled me down to the ground and started tying me up. Next thing I knew I started seeing black everywhere.
