[Update Date: May 8th, 2016]

Today was going to be whether good or bad. Probably no in between. I was going to see Justin today and I don't want things to be bad.  Jake and I haven't talked yet and it's three twenty in the afternoon and Justin's coming over at three thirty.

Sighing, I bit my fingertips nervously.

"Chill, Ari, it'll be fine." Kylie mumbled as she walked in my room with her purse wrapped around her arm.

Ignoring her comment, I asked, "Where are you headed?"

"Store. We have like no food. And if we want to survive, we need food. So, do you need anything?" She asked as she explained.

"No, it's all good. I'm not hungry anyways,"I mumbled.

"Because you're nervous, huh?"

"Very."

"Be calm, Ariana. Just talk and take deep breaths."

"I will. Thanks, Ky. Now, go get food." I said, smiling.

"Keep that smile," she said as she hugged me. "I'll be right back."

When Kylie left, I swear the doorbell rang after the door shut. I feel like she forgot her keys to the car or something so, I ran downstairs and opened the door. Freezing, I saw Justin standing there. He was smiling and had roses in his hands.

"For you," he said, scratching the back of his neck and handing the roses to me. "I just passed a floral shop or whatever and I thought of you, so we stopped."

"Thanks," I whispered. "Come in before paparazzi catch us."

He nodded slowly, speed-walking in. "So, can we talk?"

"That's what you're here for," I whispered, shutting the door and setting the roses on the table. "Wanna talk in the kitchen or living room?"

"It doesn't really matter," he shrugged casually. How is he so calm? I'm a nervous rack. "Ariana, are you okay? You look like you're about to have a panic attack."

"Yeah... I'm fine. Let's go in the kitchen." Feeling my stomach turn walking behind him, we arrived to the kitchen.

"Thanks for giving me time to talk to you. So, let's start about the Selena thing." Justin mumbled, smiling awkwardly. I saw he was forcing it.

"Talk," I said and rolled my eyes as he sat down. "I obviously had nothing to do with that."

"So, it's all forced. She needs promo and so do I because of our new albums. And, it's true I'm going on tour in less than three days and I just didn't want to leave without apologizing and leaving off on good terms." He explained. I nodded, chewing on my bottom lip.

"It's all for promo?"

"Yes. We did date in the past but this time it's just fake," he shrugged. "Apparently paparazzi found us at the party and even saw the VIP celebrity section or wherever we were and took pictures. People thought we were dating and now there's drama and also promotion." I slapped him. "Ouch! What was that for?"

"That's good to know but you deserved that slap for not telling me earlier. I would've accepted it through a call but you had to be hard." I smiled, tilting my head and leaning my body to the left with my hand on my hip.

"Now," Justin mumbled, rolling his eyes. "About this Jake guy."

"He's my boyfriend, Justin. You can't stop that," I said. "I'm sorry."

"Shit!" He said, putting his hand through his hair. "It..it's good. I just thought we could've had a shot?"

"Too late for that now, JB." I said as the doorbell rung. Walking slowly toward the door, I opened it slowly to reveal... LETS GUESS. Jake.

He ran in, went up to Justin, and got up in his face.

"Jake!" I yelled, grabbing him and tried pulling him away but he wouldn't budge.

"Listen, I don't need any problems. I just wanted to apologize," Justin argued, looking Jake straight in the eye. "I'll just get going."

"Go!" Jake screamed.

My jaw dropped while Jake almost punched Justin but Justin stopped him immediately by grabbing his fist with his hand and pulling it down to Jake's side.

"As I said, I'll be going," Justin mumbled as he walked outside. When he shut the door, I turned to Jake.

"What the hell was that?!" I yelled, pointing to the door where Justin left.

"What the hell is this?" He yelled back, putting his phone in my face. "You guys...ugh! I can't even trust you from your past. Let alone now!"

Looking at his phone, I saw a picture of Justin and I at the party. More than three weeks ago.

"Our past wasn't even four weeks ago. Jake, why are you bring up the 'past?'" I put up air quotes. "What the fuck? I can't believe you. Justin and I are friends! Go fuck your self!"

"I got to go. And we shouldn't talk anymore, I can't trust you." He whispered, running out the door.

What the hell was that? He doesn't even trust me but that was before we even met. . .
