Anastasia • Jariana Story

I got on the bus and sat next to Justin. We both smirked at each other. We got closer to each other.

"Are you sure you don't want to go to the concert with me?"

"I'm sure. I'm always very busy." I said.

"Oh. Can I come over again?" Justin asked.

"I'm not sure. I'll ask my parents." I said as I turn on my phone.

I texted my parents, and thank god we don't have anything planned.

"Nope. Nothing."

"Good, I can come over then." Justin chuckled.

"I have music first period, how about you?"

"Same."

We got to school and headed to the music room. We were the first ones there and the teacher wasn't there either. We sat down next to each other and I set my bag down.

"You look beautiful." Justin licked his lips.

I bit my lip and licked my lips as I looked into his eyes.

The door was closed so I crawled onto his lap. I felt him get hard. We locked lips and I cup his face. His hands roam around my body. He pulls away.

"I didn't realize how small you are." Justin says, his hands still roaming around my body.

It kind of felt good, actually. I let out a small groan. He smirks. I play with his hair, rubbing it.

"That feels nice." He groans.

I pressed my lips against his neck and started nibbling down on it. He moans and I flicked my tongue back and forth. The door started to open so I quickly got off of Justin and sat down.

Justin was wiping his neck with his sleeve, because of my wet kiss.

"Oh, I didn't know you guys would be here this early."

"We like being early." I pursed my lips.

"Well, you guys can practice."

"Practice what?"

"Uh, your song that I've been telling you to work on and present for the past week."

"Oh." Justin says. "Shit." He mumbled.

"You didn't do it, did you?" The teacher says.

I felt butterflies in my stomach. If I sing, people will recognize my voice as Anastasia. And, I can probably sing a song that I was going to put on the album, but didn't want to put it on the album anymore.

"Justin, just-

"Do a cover." The teacher says.

"Oh. Ok."

A few minutes passed by and the other students came in.

"Okay, today we're going to be presenting our songs." She says. "Some didn't have the time to make a song and forgot, so they will be doing a cover."

Justin whispers into my ear. "I wrote a song last year, I'm going to sing it."

I nodded.

"Ariana, you're up first."

I was kind of nervous. Yes, I am used to it because of being Anastasia. But people will recognize my voice.

"Okay, my song is called 'Honeymoon Avenue' I hope you enjoy it." I said.

I looked in my rear view mirror and
It seemed to make a lot more sense
Than what I see ahead of us,
Ahead of us, yeah.
Uh I'm ready to make that turn
Before we both crash and burn
'Cause that could be the death of us,
The death of us,
Baby you know how to drive in rain
And You decided not to make a change
Stuck in the same old lane
Going the wrong way home
I feel like my heart is stuck in bumper to bumper
Traffic, I'm under pressure 'cause I can't have you
The way that I want
Let's just go back to the way it was
When we were on Honeymoon Avenue
Honeymoon Avenue
Baby, coastin' like crazy
Can we get back to the way it was

Once I finished, everybody was talking. They clapped but they were shocked. Not because I was a good singer, it's because I sounded like Anastasia.

"Ariana... That was amazing. You should be a backup singer for Anastasia." Justin chuckles.

"Justin."

"this song is called 'what do you mean' i tried hard."

What do you mean?
Oh oh
When you nod your head yes
But you wanna say no
What do you mean?
Hey, yeah
When you don't want me to move
But you tell me to go
What do you mean?

He finished his song and we all clapped.

"Good job." I smiled.

He blushes. "I'm sure going to come to your house tonight."
