Why Try

Chapter 12

Me and my mom have been on FaceTime now for about two hours and we have laughed and cried throughout. "So mom, now that I'm signed I think I'm gonna stay for a little longer" her face suddenly dropped and I felt bad.
"Okay sweetie"
"mom if you want me to come back just say." She shook her head and said no. "Please tell me where you're staying honey"
"I'm at Justin Bieber's house" her eyes widened and her mouth dropped
"Justin Bieber? Aw let me say hi" I rolled my eyes in a playful way and then nodded.
"One second I'll be back" I got off my bed and made my way downstairs to find Justin.
"Justin?" I shouted.
"Yeah?" I followed his voice and he was sat on the couch watching tv.
"Hey erm my mom is on FaceTime right now and she's in shock that I'm here and she really wants to say hi so can you come up?"
"Aw thats so cute yeah I'll come say hi". We went back upstairs to my room and my mom was still on the screen waiting patiently.
"Hey miss Grande" Justin said very sweetly to her and smiled.
"Hi Justin and please, call me Joan"
"how are you?"
"I'm still a little shocked that she's with you but as long as you're keeping her safe"
"I am miss- I mean Joan don't worry." "Thank you for making my daughters dream come true and thank you to scooter too" my mom said as tears started to fall.
"Mom" I said with a sweet tone.
"I know I know I'm sorry, I'm just so happy and proud". Me and Justin both said aw at the same time and then giggled.
After another hour of talking to my mom, me and Justin said goodbye to her and ended the call.
"Your mom is so cute, you two look so a like"
"she gets so emotional so easy, but yeah she's cute".
"Ari?" I looked up at him when he said my name and he began to scratch the back of his head.
"Erm well I was wond- erm wondering if erm you-"
"just spit it out Justin" I giggled.
"I was wondering if you wanted to go out to dinner tonight with me and some friends?"
"Yeah sure, what time ?"
"About 7:00pm?" I looked at my phone to see that it was now 6:00pm shit I have an hour to get ready.
"I'll get ready" I said as I was already walking to the shower.
For my outfit I decided on an oversized shirt so it looked like a dress and some thigh highs, its simple but looks cute. I made my way downstairs as Justin was opening for front door, his eyes caught mine
"damn" I heard him say under his breath and I giggled.
"Ari this is Za, Khalil, Ryan, Kendall and Hailey -who you've already met-"
"hi guys" I gave a small wave and blushed.
"Hey" they all said one by one and then we went into the restaurant. We sat down and ordered some food, I had a BBQ base chicken pizza. My favourite. After talking for about fifteen minutes my phone buzzed and I looked to see a text message from my friend Alfie who lived back in Boca. I opened the text and it was a link so I clicked on it and my eyes widened. It was a news article about me "Newbie Aribella Grande is only in it for the money." I read through the article and one line got to me, 'yeah she told me she only wanted the money, she's living with Justin Bieber now, she's using him to get her name out' says Aribella's ex-bestfriend Tiana Cruz" what the fuck. What a bitch, my blood began to boil.
