Alex's Pov:
"What did you do?" I questioned, sure that Ariana did something terrible.
"Nothing," She said slyly, making a smile that assured me something bad was coming.
I noticed her glance towards my car, and then back to me. For a second, i thought I was just seeing things, but I saw her shift anxiously on her feet. Slowly making my way towards my new car, I noticed something brown in the front seat.
"Hey Alex, can we go inside to... uh... maybe... LEMONADE?... yeah, can we get lemonade?" Ariana says too quickly.
"Just sit your butt right there for a second Ariana," I say in a cheerful sing-song voice, sarcastically.
I walk over to my car slowly, and see Ariana running away out of the corner of my eye. Let's just get this over with, I thought. As I opened the front door, brown mush poured out of the car onto my new shoes, Allstars. I go in closer and see Nutella EVERYWHERE in that car. Not a spot without the chocolatey goodness smeared all over it. As I swiped my finger across the rear-view mirror, i taste Nutella, confirming my suspicions. Yeah, it was Nutella.
" ARIANA!!!!!!!" I scream and the whole parade stops and looks at me like i was a freak.
I see her crying from the bedroom window, and after taking my shoes off, go to her room. I slowly opened her door, and her eyes meet with mine. We stared at each other in silence for what seems like a century.
"Alex, i am sorry but YOU made my top fall down in front of the whole parade! I wasn't thinking about how you would feel about your new car, and I feel really bad." She croaks out, fighting back more tears.
"Dude! That was my new car! Why would you do this! It's not my fault! You're the one who agreed to wear that bathing suit, and how am I supposed to get all of that freaking Nutella out of my car?!?!" I screamed at Ariana.
She runs out of the room and locks herself in the bathroom. I hear her crying quietly.
" Ariana open the door" I say softly.
I get no response. I spot a bobby pin on her dresser and grab it. I walk over to the door and slid it through the hole. it unlock and I see Ariana agents the wall with her knees up to her chest, and her head down.
" I'm not mad at you." I say sitting next to her.
"It was kinda funny." I add to try and cheer her up. She looks up with her red eyes,
"Liar."
" No, I'm not. I deserved it for making you wear that bikini, that was... well you obviously know" I say with sympathy, but she still sits there.
" Well now that you did that, I'll always have a snack in the car, and it will smell good!" I say.
Ariana tries to hold back laughter, but we both end up laughing.
" I'll help you clean it." She suggests.
" Help? Oh no Pooky, you're doing the whole thing." I say smiling.
" Actually I'll buy you a new one!" She says, bursting with excitement.
" Is something wrong with you're head?" I say, putting my hand on her forehead.
"They cost so much money! I'm not going to let you do that." I command.
" But my dad was friends with the manger. Plus my dad left money for my mom and I before he went into the army!"
" No" I say.
" Yes" She argues.
" No"
"Yes"
"No"
"Yes"
It goes on for fifteen minutes, no lie. I finally give in. She grabs the credit card and we head out. We, of course use her car, a Volkswagen. No way we're driving Nutella on wheels.
She pulled into literally "1,000 cars" and parks.
"Hello! What are you guys looking for?" A salesman says, a little too perky for my liking.
"Could I talk to Frank Wilson?" Ariana asks.
" Sure! Come with me!" He smiles.
We walk inside the building and Ariana try's to make small talk.
" Hey what's your name?" She asks.
"Carl. Oh and could you guys wait right here? I'm going to get Frank." he says cheerfully walking off to another hallway.
We both stand there by a desk waiting. I look over and see a guy staring at Ariana. I start talking about random things with Ariana, trying to get the point across to him that things are going on here, that we are dating. I mean we aren't, but she's moving soon and she doesn't need that thing talking to her. He doesn't need to ruin our last couple of days together. What am I thinking? Maybe he wasn't staring at her. I bet he was staring at the wall. Yeah that's it, he was dating the wall.
He walks over to Ariana and says, "Hi gorgeous, what might your name be?"
" None of your business!" I scowl.
She glares at me. ME! What did I do?
" Ariana." She smiles.
" I might let you know you are a lot hotter than Ariana Grande." That thing says walking closer to her.
" I might let you know if don't take a step back I'll punch you in the face." I say looking at the thing. Wait am I jealous? Peshh......no. Ariana glares at me again.
" Sorry about my friend. Anyways I'd love to know your name!" She says twirling her hair.
" Ricky" He says smoothly.
She giggles and he says,
" Hey maybe wanna go out sometime, Ariana?"
I can't help it, he is not just going to come out here and ruin our plans. My fist accidentally connects with his face, and I see blood.
