Ariana

I shake my hands hoping my nerves would go away. It wasn't supposed to be like this. I'm back stage alone, Normani was supposed to be here. She had a last minute interview somewhere I didn't care about.

Tonight was supposed to be the premiere of our song together. What's most important about it is that we were coming out as a couple with it. Now it's just gonna be a anticlimactic reveal and it'll be awkward with just me on the stage Britney swaying to her parts.

"You're on Ariana." I clear my throat, letting my mom give me a tight hug.

"You got this baby! Keep your eyes on the audience. Have fun out there, but not too much." My mom winks while pushing me towards the stage. My eyebrows furrow at this. The hell does that mean?

I couldn't ponder on it much more because I was being announced right now. I glare at my mom slightly to let her know I'm asking her about this later.

"....grammy nominated and winner, the only artist since the beetles to have three songs charting top 10 on billboard hot 100 at once. Premiering her never heard before song, ARIANA GRANDE!" I smile hard at the loud cheering before putting my in-ears in. The first thing I noticed was the large boxes with sheets covering them. I mentally shrug and made it to my spot.

I lick my lips and wipe my sweaty hands on my blazer. The music starts and I close my eyes getting into it.

"Now baby girl there ain't more that I can say." A smile tugs at Ariana's lips watching the audience react in surprise. She has never made a song about a woman. Ariana continues quickly, noting the silhouettes in the back. She never noticed that during rehearsals. She decides to ignore it continuing her part.

"You know by now I want it more than anything. If I walk away and just let you leave, you'll be stuck in my head like a melody." I let out a sigh seeing as Normani's part came in.

"I know you want it, I'm hesitating. I got a man you got a lady."

'It sounds an awful like her live. Like I can hear her breathing. Technology is sick.' Ariana thinks to herself. Oblivious to what's about to happen. The audience was in shock hearing Normani, the silhouette in the back waved with a mic in hand. Everyone's cheers intensifies.

"I know we here together, so this must be something special

"I know we here together, so this must be something special. You could be anywhere you wanted, but you decided to be here with me..." As Ariana sings there are stage workers moving around her. At this point she knows something is up. She sees a chair and is gestured to sit, she does with little hesitation. 'I guess they find me standing in one spot as awkward as I do.' Ariana shakes her head a little and finish the chorus of the track ready for Normani's voice to fill everyone's ears.
