Soulmate: A Maciana Fanfiction

Is This Goodbye?

July 18, 2016:

Ariana's POV:

"Hey babe! What time is Miguel's party tonight?" I called out to Ricky. "Uh shit, like eight maybe!" he called back from upstairs. I was in the kitchen, cutting up some strawberry's and making a cup of coffee. Ricky came down the stairs with his camera around his neck. He was wearing dark jeans, and a white v-neck. "Are you having another photoshoot today?" I asked, continuing to cut the strawberry's, not looking at him. "Yeah, I will be back in like 3 hours. I can take you to the party. Love ya babe." Ricky mumbled walking out the door. No hug, no kiss, no nothing. I'm not upset about it though, it has been like this for the past month. We have been drifting apart, but we both love each other. It can just get confusing at times. He always wants me when it comes to sex, but going on dates and hanging out, it's like he just can't wait to get out of this house. I understand where he is coming from though. Artist's take time off, and work from studio's in their homes. But Ricky, being a dancer, he has to "network" as he calls it, to get more opportunities. 

I think he is embarrassed because I make more money than him. It's not a bad thing, and I don't mind. But he always gets mad and jealous when I hang around male celebrities. I think he feels insecure because of the difference in income. He thinks that they are better than him, and that I will just leave him for one of them any second now. I understand how stressed he feels, and it's taking a toll on me too. I fear that I am falling out of love with him. It's hard to have a healthy relationship when all you get is hate coming from all directions. Not even the hate, just the negativity he brings back home, or when I have events he gets all angry and sad. At this point I think he is running from his problems, or at these photoshoots, "networking" with other girls to try and get over me. We haven't sat down and just talked in so long. I feel like we both are just hurting each other. I will probably talk to him if tonight goes well. Not saying that if it goes well it means our relationship is fine, I'm saying if tonight goes well, then maybe he will actually agree to sit down and have a conversation with me. 

I finish cutting up my strawberries, and grab my MacBook and coffee to go sit outside. I sit at one of the many tables outside. I open my MacBook to check emails. Biting into a strawberry as I scrolled through new emails, looking for any important ones, I see an email from Mac Miller. I click on it. I have not heard from him in a minute. I begin to read the email:

Hey Ariana,

I haven't talked to you in what feels like forever! I'm just gonna get straight to the point, I'm making an album, a love album, and I have this song that I really want you to be featured on. Like I have this feeling that your voice will be perfect for it. And I would love to catch up, homie. Just get back to me when you can.   - Mac

Hey Mac,

I'd love to do the song with you! We have to get in the studio sometime soon, maybe even grab a bite to eat or something and catch up? I'm free next week. Also just texts me, I have the same number. See you soon Mac!  - Ari

That's awesome! I am actually so excited, and I haven't even heard the song yet. It'll be so nice to catch up, and maybe I can hear some of his new music he is working on. I forward the email to Scooter typing, "I'm so gonna do this, and I'm so excited!" I'm not going to be releasing any of my own music anytime soon, so I know it will be fine. I finish up breakfast and checking my emails. Then, head inside to lounge around for a little until it's time to start getting ready for Miguel's party. 

Mac's POV: 

It's 2:34 A.M and I finally sucked up the courage to email Ariana to ask her if she wanted to do a song with me on my album. I have some instrumentals and demo's, but I don't actually have a song picked out just for her yet. Although, in the email I sent her I told her I had a song just for her. I'm praying that she has a packed week and will have to wait till next week so I can figure out what song I want to do with her. Also, will I rap, sing, both? I dunno. I think I'm gonna try and sleep on it.
