lost cause.

"ariana, what the actual fuck?!" i could hear justin yell.

as i turned to selena, i saw a tear coming out of her eye as she looked at me.

"i-i trusted you." she whispered.

"what?"

i was afraid of what she would say. i only wanted to find out the truth, i didn't mean for her to hate me.

"i fucking trusted you!" she yelled before running off, passing justin to enter the house.

what?

she was my only friend. yet i let our friendship slip away.

from the corner of my eye, i saw justin turn around. i couldn't let him leave. he was the last one who seemed to care.

"i-i'm sorry! i just wanted to find out the truth, i-i d-didn't mean for this to happen!" i cried, the tears falling by the second.

he looked at me over his shoulder before continuing to leave.

i stretched my hand out, hoping someone would come and help me.

as i heard the back door close, that hope faded away.

i fell on the grass, letting the realization that i'm alone take over me.

no wonder everyone in my life gave up on me. i'm a lost cause.

weeks passed. they included nothing more than me in my room, listening to music, eating, and crying.

"ms. grande, your parents would like to see you." i could hear my butlers voice from outside the door.

i scoffed. they finally notice something's wrong with me?

i get up, looking at myself in my vanity mirror.

the sight made me gasp.

i had dark circles under my puffy red eyes, my skin was 20 times more paler, and my nose was red from all the tissues.

i sighed, opening the door and going downstairs.

as i sat down in front of my parents, they both gasped.

wow, you guys care now?

"sweetie you look so sick!" mother stated.

yeah, sick mentally.

"i'm guessing dating prince of wenble didn't go too well." father observed.

i froze.

"well, you're 20. we gave you the chance to go on a few dates, but since that didn't work out, we're gonna marry you to another prince immediately." father declared, mother nodding with him.

get...married?

as soon as those words came out of his mouth, i jumped.

"mother, father please! you can't take away my freedom like that!" i begged, tears threatening to fall.

"oh, but we can. you'll be meeting him tomorrow. the wedding is in a week. end of conversation." mother ordered.

i sighed, letting the tears fall.

there really was no use in arguing.

it felt like my life was getting worse and worse by the second.

as i went back to my room, there was one thought that kept repeating itself in my mind.

royalty sucks.
