Justin's POV

"Well it's your song, I can help you think of ideas but they need to come from you" Ariana smiles at me and continues strumming my ukulele

"Hello" Scooter says and holds his phone up to his ear, "Yeah"

"Justin come see me outside real quick" Scooter waves me to follow him out into the hallway

I sigh and follow Scooter into the hall, wondering who's calling him

When we get into the hallway Scooter puts his phone into his pocket and closes the studio door so Ariana can't hear us

"Who was that?" I ask and point to his pocket

"No one" he shakes his head

"Then why-"

"Tell me about Ariana" he interrupts me

"Ariana?"

"Yes"

"Um, I don't know" I shrug, "I like her a lot, but I don't think that our relationship would interfere with my career or anything, she's just-"

"Not that" Scooter huffs, "Tell me about her"

"Oh, um, she lives in those apartments down the road from here. She works-um, worked at a restaurant but she did get fired..." I slant my lips

"I don't know what you want to know"

"Does she have any experience in music?" He asks

"Yeah, lots. She was in two broadway shows when she was a kid. One when she was eight and one when she was fourteen"

Scooter nods his head and he thinks

"She also went to a performing arts high school" I add

"I can tell, I watched the videos of you two at that club" He speaks up

"That was such a fun night, she was so sexy" I chuckle to myself

"Yeah...what do you think about me signing her?" Scooter asks me

"...what?" I look at him with confusion

"She's clearly very talented, she loves your fans, and the way she handles your paparazzi, she could handle her own" Scooter tosses his hand around as he talks

"I don't know, she doesn't like a lot of attention"

"Neither do you, but you're practically running this industry"

"Yeah but-"

"Just listen to her" Scooter stops me and cracks the studio door open

"I'm on some kind of drug, can't explain all the ways you get me high" she sings in a high key, "I'm on some kind of drug, can't explain, don't keep me waiting all night"

"Girl come through, them bath water running, fire be burning in my hotel room. Come through, champagne be popping, system be knocking in my hotel room" she sings lazily and twirls in her chair
