Damn, when was the last time I updated this story??? Well, gonna take some time so you can know what happens next!!

Chapter 10

Ariana's POV

   After Mrs.Ivankovich called out the boy names, it was onto the girls. I hoped Liz, maybe even Victoria. I sat in my desk quietly, waiting to hear what the teacher would say next.

   "Selena, Miley, Taylor, Demi, and Delta." Oh, this is awkward. There are rumors going around that Selena, Miley, and the Aussie girl, Delta Goodrem all asked out the same guy yesterday, Nick Jonas. He reject Miley and Selena, and said yes to Delta, bet because she's Australian. But it almost doesn't matter, because both Sel and Miley already got boyfriends.

   Anyways, back to the topic. Mrs. I called more names.

   "Victoria, Elizabeth, Cher, Mckenzie, and Rebecca." No, I thought. Both Liz and Vic were in the same group. A gorup without me. I looked at the three other girls. Cher Lloyd and Rebecca Ferguson, both here, from the UK. Mckenzie Comer, another Aussie girl. If I wasn't going to be in a group with either Liz or Vic, who's group would I be in?

   Mrs. I picked out 5 more names. She stared at them, then at the class. She looked worried, almost scared. Somethung bad was going to happen.

   "Leigh-Anne, Jesy, Jade, Perrie, and...Ariana." No, this CANNOT be happening. Everyone got silent. There were many thoughts running through my mind.

   First off, what were the chances those four would be put in the same group together? Another thing, what were the chances I would be put in a group with Perrie? Of all people, it HAD to be her.

   The class was well aware of mine and Perrie's relationship, and everyone started whispering.

   I turned to look at Perrie, who was sitting in the back, next to Zayn's seat. She was staring at me, her eyes squinted. Her face was red, ready to explode. She was VERY pissed.

   "Aw snap, Perrie is mad," Ed said, "She's just as red as my hair."

   "OK, why don't you shut the hell up?!" Perrie screamed at him, getting up from her seat. 

   "MISS EDWARDS, SIT DOWN!" yelled Mrs. Ivankovich.

   "No! I am NOT going to be in a group with HER!" she pinted at me with a perfectly manicured finger. 

   "Sorry, Miss Edwards, there is nothing I can do. All picks are final." Mrs. I told her.

   "Go to hell." whispered Perrie under her breath.

   "Perrie, come out in the hall with me. In the meantime, everyone whisper quietly." Mrs. I said, opening the door to the hall. Perrie followed her, and shut the door.

   "Man, shit just got serious."

   "Something bad is gonna happen next."

   "I would hate to be Ariana."

   Yes, I'm hating myself too. I'm not very pleased to be with perrie, but there's no need to throw a tantrum. I turned to look at everyone. People were either looking at me, or giving me looks of empathy. I met Zayn's eyes. He gave me a little shrug. I pouted at him. He gave me a smile. That cheered me up a bit.

   Then, out of no where, Liz and Victoria appeared and started whispering to me.

"Don't act like we didn't just see you make faces with Zayn." whispered Liz.

"Ari, you're in serious trouble now." added Victoria.

"I know, I know. What should I do?" I asked

"There is nothing you can do. You are stuck with that she-devil." responded Victoria.

"But, no worries. You have Zayn to talk to. Zayn, the man of your dreams, the guy you think about, your enemy's boyfriend." Liz went on. I playfully slapped her. The door started to open. Everyone got quiet, and ran to their seats. Mrs. I and Perrie walked in.

"Alright, everyone, get with your song partners. Time to pick your songs."

Zayn's POV

I ran to Ariana's seat. She must be feeling like shit right now. I don't like seeing her like that.

"Hey, Ari." I said. She turend, and smiled.

"Oh, hi Zayn." She sounded a bit sad. I couldn't blame. Perrie humiliated her in front of everyone.

"So, are you excited to see what song we're gonna be doing?" I asked. She shrugged. I'm trying to make her feel better, but it's not working.

"Don't feel bad, it's not your fault. And besides, you have me, and you can always come to me." I reassured her. I gently put my hand on her shoulder. She looked into my eyes, and smiled. I couldn't help but smile too.

Why did I get a strange feeling someone was watching us? No, it wasn't someone, it was everyone, even Mrs. Ivankovich was staring. Everyone stopped looking at us when the teacher came around to pass another hat, this one filled with song titles. After about 5 groups picked their song, it was our turn to pick.

"Who's going to pick?" Mrs. I asked. I looked at Ariana. She didn't seem to care who did.

"I will." I said. I closed my eyes, and reached my hand into the hat. I mixed my hand a bit, and finally grabbed a slip. I pulled it out, and opened my eyes. Ariana leaned in forward to read it.

"Love Story by Taylor Swift." We read out loud at the same time. Mrs. Ivankovich ran to her desk to get a paper and a CD. The paper contained the lyrics, and the CD had the song Taylor had recorded. We started to talk as soon as the teacher left.

"The lyrics are pretty good."Ariana said, reading the paper. I leaned in to read it. They were really good. It seemed like a song two people can sing.

"I can't wait to hear the demo." I said. Ariana nodded. Minutes passed, and people were still recieving their songs. 10 minutes after class was over, we heard a voice talk to us.

"Well, well, if it's isn't my BF, Zayn, and my new partner, Ariana. I would like to introduce you to my partner, Greyson." Perrie said, motioning to Greyson. He looked scared.

"So,  what song did you get?" Perrie asked.

"Love Story by Taylor Swift." replied Ariana. She is clearly not afraid of Perrie. Perrie smirked.

"Oh, a song by that wild haired girl. Well, me and Greyson got a song got a song called "Put Your Hearts Up" by, oh yeah, Ariana Grande." Ariana gasped. This was clearly not a good day for her.

"You got MY song?" she asked. Perrie nodded.

"And I'm DYING to see how horrible the demo is. I mean, I'm dying to hear it." She ran to the front of the room, striaght to the stereo. Perrie is trying very hard to make Ariana look bad. But why? She turned it on, popped the CD in, and clicked play. Music started to play, and so did the most beautiful singing I have ever heard. It was so beautiful, I thought I had died, went ti heaven, and angels were singing to me. But then, I realized it was Ariana singing. People started hooting and holloring.

"THAT, everyone, is Ariana Grande." Perrie called out, in a way that was suppose to be nasty, not trying to compliment her.

"Yeah, and she's a better singer than you!" yelled out Jay.

"You suck, Perrie the platypus!" added Louis. Everyone started to laugh, and started to chant, "Ariana! Ariana! Ariana!" Ariana stood up, and did a little curtsy. Everyone screamed and cheered. Everyone, except for Perrie. When the song was over, I was the first to stand up, and give her a standing ovation. I was followed by everyone else.

I couldn't help but notice Perrie. She looked disappointed. Well, yeah, her plan to make Ariana look bad had failed. I may have been the only one to see a tear falling from her eye.
