Prologue

  I didnt realise my life would change in just a couple days. I wasnt raised in the best envirement, I was raised on the streets. Where gangs, drugs, and police were always around. I learned how to avoid all the trouble, but its hard when your dad is one of the gang leaders, and drug lords.

                 *Flashback*

  I knew that I needed to get out of there soon or I would be dragged into the same mess hes in. I went to the cafe I perform at every Tuesday and Thursday. This day was different I knew it, I could feel it, I seen it in the atmosphere.

  The manager of the cafe came up to me and said, " Kellin theres a big time recording artist here with her manager, you have to do your best so you can get out of this dump. Grab her attention. Sing straight at her and never break eye contact." He pointed at a girl with bright red velvet hair next to some lady that I assume is the manager.

  I walked up on stage with some of the dance crew that performs with me at times. I gathered everyone together and whispered, " Guys we got to do our best tonight. We got to give it our all. This may be the only chance I can get out of this hell hole. Theres a high in recording artist here with her manager, I need to win her heart over on this stage so she'll give me this oppurtunity to get me signed." Everyone nodded in agreement. They knew how bad I need to get out of this run down town.

  We got in position. Before the music started we signaled the Dj to turn down the lights and that we were ready.

  A soft beat started playing. I realised that the dancers arent performing with me. I turned back and pulled my hood on.

   Theres a shop down the street where they sell plastic rings for a guarter a piece , I swear it.

Yeah,  I know that its cheap not like gold in your dreams but I hope you'll still wear it.

  Yeah, the ink may stain my skin and my jeans may be ripped Im not perfect

  I pull down my hood and look the redhead in her eyes

  But I swear Im perfect for you.

And theres no guarentee that this will be easy. Im not a miracle you need, believe me.

  Yeah , Im no angel Im just me. But I will love you endlessly. Wings arent what you need, you need me.

   I couldnt help but admire her beauty. Her smile, her chocolet brown eyes, how she looked down when she smiles. I couldnt stop stareing at her, not like how Raulf said to do, but as if we were the only two in the room.

  As the song finished everyone stood with a round of applause. I smiled and walked down stairs. I bumped into someone and quickly said my apologies, I stopped and realised it was her, the redhead.

  She blushed and said, " Its okay, Im Ariana, Ariana Grande. I seen you perform, you were amazing. Has anyone asked you to sign with there conpany? I smiled and shook her hand. "Im Kellin Williams. Actually Im not signed to anyone. Ive been called by some record labels but everyone turns me down. I dont let that get me down though, I just keep trying."

  She smiles and said, " Well pack your bags your coming to L.A with me. I already talked to my manager and she said she really likes your style, and we need a new face in the industry." My smile stretched from ear to ear. I hugged her and said , " Thank you, you dont know how long Ive been waiting for this oppurtunity!"
