Stay out of my way
Ch 3
I was out of bed far before my alarm went off. Today was the day all y work payed off. My dreams were coming true. I checked my phone, and found Jeff had texted me the directions. I quickly responded.
A: Is this a casual thing?
J: Yes! Everyone wears like jeans and such.
A: Kk thanks
I went back to my closet, and pulled out my favorite pair of dark skinny jeans. Pulling those on, I dug around until I found the perfect shirt. It was light blue which I'd been told goes good with my hair. I slipped on converse, and went into the bathroom.
Jean would have wanted me to wear makeup, but I couldn't stand the feeling of makeup. It was far too gooey. So i grabbed my brush, and began to brush out my hair. I decided to leave it down today. I pulled on my favorite jacket, and zipped it up half way. I grabbed my keys, and left feeling nervous has heck!
It was a short drive, and I parked but did not move from my car. There was no telling what stars could be found in there. I couldn't believe I had a meeting at STARS records. I knew I had to go in eventually, so I grabbed my bag, and climbed from the car.
Inside, i was given a room number, and pointed down the long hallway. It wasnt long before I saw non other than Taylor Swift and Demi Lovato coming down the hall. OMG!!! Screamed the inside of my head. They smiled at me, and Im pretty sure I smiled back. Who knows. My face was numb with shock.
I found the room, and tried to open the door. It was very heavy, and being small for my age I couldn't get it to budge. SHOOT! I tried and tried, but was getting nowhere. "Need some help love?" Came a british voice.
I turned to see Liam from One Direction standing behind me. I nodded, and he effortlessly swung it open. "Thanks." I said, before darting inside. Although he was nice, i couldn't let anyone distract me. This could be my only shot to make it.
The meeting was long, but exciting. I met my hair and makeup staff. "I-I dont wear makeup." I said quietly, and everyone laughed. "It's just for lighting purposes, unless you ask for more." Said Jeff smiling. I nodded. Soon I was slid a contract for 2 years. "If all goes well, we can extend the contract." Jeff's partner Ryan informed me. I eagerly signed. YES!!!
"Alright! Jeff said you were writing a song. Could you give us a preview?" Asked Ryan, looking hopeful. I nodded, and was rushed from the room and down the hall. This recording studio was even nicer than the one at Karens house! I was handed a guitar, and rushed into the booth.
"Whenever you're ready." Jeff said through the mic. My whole staff sat around eagerly. I slung the strap over my head, and strummed for a moment before begginning.

(Song from ch 1)
Tell me why, why does following our dreams
Take you far away from me
means I knew that it would
Tell me how to fill the space you've left behind
And how to laugh instead of cry
And how to say Goodbye
Here I stand
Arms Open Wide
I've held you close
Kept you safe
Till you could fly
Tell me where the road ahead is gonna bend
And how to harness up the wind
And how to say goodbye.

When I finished, I looked up and jumped. Joining my staff in the room was The Wanted, Two Members of One Direction (Harry and Louis), Selena Gomez, and Katy Perry. Everyone was smiling widely. Was I really that good.
Everyone crowded around the microphone, asking my name and how I'd come up with that song. "Ariana!" I called, and then I thought for a moment before saying "I guess its about my best friend in kindergarten. She was bullied, and I helped her. Then she moved away and I haven't seen her since we were 9!" I called.
"Alright. We're good for today. Come on out and Ill email you your scheduale later." Said Jeff. Most of the stars left, but Louis, Harry, and Katy remained. Katy hugged me as though we'd known each other forever. "Im so excited the actually found someone who isn't fake!"
"Um..yeah." I said slowly. She pulled away, before glancing at the clock. "Oh! I have recording in 2 minutes. Ill see you all around." She said, before darting out the door. It was now just me Harry and Louis. "That was great!" Said Louis. I smiled briefly.
"We were about to go out for lunch with the other boys. Wanna come?" He asked. I shook my head. I had to wait until I got started to get a little distracted. Now I had to focus on my music. "I have to get home."
"Pleeeeease! Im sure you don't have to get home!" Said Louis, trying to puppy eyes.
That made me laugh. "I-I cant. I have to work on music." I said, starting for the door. "But you have to eat! Why not do it with us!!!!" Whined Louis, while Harry laughed. "You might as well give in. Louis will follow
you home begging." Said Harry. I glared at him, I really hated him from all the publicity hogging he did.
"Oh alright. But only for a bit." I sighed, and Louis hurried me from the room. What was I doing? Was I really going to risk making friends. My uncle had always told me," friends can hold you down. Be careful with who you become close to." I would be careful. I was determined this was
only a one time thing. They may seem nice now, but celebrity's do weird thigs for publicity.
