The "L" Word(Ariana Grande+1D Fanfic)

Chapter 1

Ariana's POV

"Baby I..." I sang the last chord of my new song, 'Baby I.' I am currently in the process of making my new album, 'Yours Truly.'

"That was great Ariana!" my manager, Loretta, says, "I know it's going to be a great hit!"

"I hope I get to sell out arenas and play concerts for millions of fans!" I exclaimed, whilst walking out of the recording room.

Music has basically always been my life. It started when I was nine, and that's when I realized that I wanted to do this forever. I have a lot of people supporting me, but my true supporter would be my half brother, Frankie. He's always been there for me, and without him I don't think I'd be able to do this.

I had just recently gotten out of my contract with the Nickelodeon series, 'Victorious.' I just felt like I wasn't doing a good job on that show, and that acting wasn't my forte. At least that's what my co-star and bully, Victoria Justice, would say. (A/N:No hate on Victoria Justice!)

My best friends are Elizabeth Gillies and Jennette McCurdy. They have always been there for me, especially on my current break up with Jai Brooks. I thought he was the one, but what with the long distance and stuff, it wasn't possible. But now I'm in my current relationship with Nathan Sykes, who is from The Wanted. It's going okay, but it feels like we lost our connection a bit. I still love him, though.

"You will most definitely get to do that," Loretta promises.

"Will they even like me?" I wondered out loud.

"Of course they would!" she says, "you already have tons of fans!"

And I also have a lot of haters. Recently, there were a lot of people saying how much of a 'slut' I am, just because of my break up with Jai and my instant get together with Nathan. I just move on really fast. Is there a problem with that? Also, others have been saying I have a bad voice. Excuse you, and I don't mean to be arrogant, but if I have a bad voice, how would I be here and making an ENTIRE album?

"Thanks Loretta, but I have to go back to the Victorious set to get the rest of my stuff," I tell her, "I'll see you later!"

She nods and I get into my car. I start the engine and begin my one hour drive. Hopefully, I don't bump into Victoria there. She's pissed at me because 'I am the reason the show is being cancelled' all because I want to focus on my music career more. I mean, it's not entirely my fault, the staff had been wanting to cancel it a long time before. I'm not the reason.

I park my car and head inside the studio. Luckily, there isn't a lot of people, so I quickly go in to get the rest of my stuff. As I finally collected my things, I heard someone enter the room. "Well, well, well...if it isn't Ariana, A.K.A the girl who cancelled MY show!"

I turned around to he face to face with Victoria. She was glaring harshly on me. Can't she just move on from the past? I never got why she hated me in the first place. "Firstly, it wasn't my fault. Secondly, it wasn't 'your' show only."

"But I was the star," she rolled her eyes, "but now it's all gone."

"You have a music career to fall back on you know," I remind her.

"I know, but at least I didn't have to choose it over acting," she places her hands on her hips.

"Can't you just get over this?" I groaned, "and besides, you can get into lots of other shows, just like the rest of the cast are doing."

She smirked. "I know. I'm such a great actress, unlike you."

"I'm glad I don't have to deal with you anymore," I muttered under my breath.

"What did you say, bitch?" she pushed me, "you should be glad you had me as a co-star."

"Leave me alone!" I defended myself.

She slapped my face. "You're my dream crusher!"

She was about to hit me again, when my bestie Elizabeth, came in and stopped her. "Leave Ariana the hell alone."

Liz can be a little scary like Jade on Victorious. She's strong and intimidating, and she scared the crap out of Victoria.

Victoria glared at me and sashayed out of the room. I smiled at Elizabeth. "Thanks, Liz."

"No problem," she grinned, "you don't have to listen to her."

I got a text on my phone, and saw that it was from my boyfriend, Nathan.

Hey, are you going to be at the studio tonight?

I got an idea. I'm going to trick him, and then surprise him! Hopefully he'll be happy, because lately he has been acting strange for some reason.

Yeah, sorry babe xx

"Gotta go," I tell my best friend, "see you later, Liz."

"Bye Ari," she replied and I headed out.

I got in my car and started driving towards Nathan's house here in L.A. Once I got there I saw a familiar car in the driveway, but I couldn't put my finger on it. I shrugged it off and just walked on.

I rung the doorbell and the door opened to an indifferent Max. "Ugh, what are you doing here?"

A little fact: the four members of The Wanted are complete assholes, and they hate me for some reason. Hey, at least I have fans. (A/N:No hate on The Wanted!)

I rolled my eyes at him. "I'm here to see my boyfriend, duh."

Something flashed across his face, but it seemed like he brushed it off. "You can't."

"Why not?" I raised my eyebrow.

"Because I don't like pests swarming around the house," he smiled evilly at me.

"Ironic seeing as there's the biggest pest of all I'm talking to," I huffed, "and I'm going inside."

I pushed passed him and stormed inside. The other three members, Tom, Jay, and Siva all rolled their eyes when they saw. I ignored them completely and ran upstairs to Nathan's room.

I presses my ear to his door, and heard little sounds but that was it, the rest was silence. I don't think he's sleeping, it's only eight o'clock. But whatever, he will be happy for the surprise.

I bursted into the room and yelled, "SURPRISE!"

The sight in front of me was not what I had expected. Nathan was making out with another girl, A.K.A Victoria, my bully and the person who hates me more than she loves herself. And that is saying a lot actually.

Tears spilled out of my eyes, and anger swarmed in my head. They finally noticed me and Nathan's eyes went wide. "Ari, babe, I'm so-"

"Sorry doesn't do anything!" I shouted, "we are done and I hate you!"

I ran out of the room while I was crying my heart out. I bumped into Max and he smirked at me, not being apologetic at all. He probably knew about this. "I like Victoria better."

I lost it and punched him, hard, in the nose. He fell to the floor and held it, not saying anything. I ran out of the house and I spotted the random car in the driveway, which I now recognized it as Victoria's. I'm such an idiot.

I lost control and before I knew it, I was kicking her car. I made a ton of dents, and I even smashed her window. Served that bitch right. Then something flashed in my face, and I realized it was a paparazzi.

I ran into the car, knowing it was going to be everywhere in the magazines. I drove away quickly and back to my house.

I am such a fool for loving Nathan, I should have known it wouldn't work. Maybe I should have stayed with Jai and have done the long distance thing, maybe it would have worked out. But I didn't, and now I'm a fool.

I just wish I had a good love life just like my singing career. I wished I was loved by a boy, not just by my friends and family. No boy will ever love me, I just know it.

Hey! Keep reading, vote, and fan!
