School was going really well. Chaz, Ryan, and I hung out a lot each afternoon. They were cool guys, but after almost three weeks of hanging with the guys, Ryan started acting really weird towards me and Chaz. He would leave early, he would skip out on our Friday night hang outs. Something seemed to be odd about him. He was nice to me one second, then the next he completely ignored my existence on earth. Of course I didn't have any feelings for him love wise, just friendship wise, but it was really confusing and annoying how he would practically flirt with me then just leave me hanging the next day. I couldn't be bothered by his actions, to be honest. I had Chaz, who was probably the sweetest guy on earth. He was funny as hell too. Our friendship was growing stronger each day.

One Friday night Chaz called me up, and asked me to come over to his house, because he wanted me to meet someone. I wondered who could be so important that I just had to hurry up and get there to meet. I threw on a hoodie, and headed out the door. Chaz lived a few blocks down from me, but it was within rolling distance.

When I arrived to his house, I rang on the doorbell and waited for an answer. His mother came to the door, and smiled when she saw me. "Hey, Mariah." she said, stepping out to help me into the house. She popped my chair up over the door stop, and shut the door behind her once I was in. "Chaz is in the living room with his friend." She said, point towards the living room before turning towards the kitchen. I rolled down the small hallway, and entered the living room.

I saw a super familiar face sitting on the couch. I felt my heart pound really, really, fast. It was Justin Bieber. I recognized the hair. It was covered up by a ballcap, but I still knew who it was. I swallowed hard, and looked over at Chaz, then back to Justin. He got off the couch and smiled really wide, "Hello! I'm Justin!" He said, leaning down to give me a big hug. He squeezed me lightly, and I squeezed him back.

"I'm Mariah." I spat out with a grin. He grinned back at me and sat down on the arm of the couch I was parked next to. "That's a gorgeous name." He said with a nod before taking a sip of his Vitamin Water. "Chaz was just telling me about how cool you are, and that how y'all met and stuff. You're adorable!"

I might not of been a big fan of Justin Bieber, but he had to be the sweetest boy. I barely knew him for two seconds, and he was already calling me beautiful, and talking to me like a normal person. I was definitely loving Stratford more than anything now. I was struck speechless by Justin. He was so quick to throw so many nice compliments towards me. I had to re-collect my thoughts so I didn't sound stupid. I took a deep breath and smiled up at him. "Yeah, we've been hanging out for a while now. He's pretty cool." I laughed shyly, looking over at Chaz who was staring at the TV, and not even paying attention to us.

Justin nodded and smiled, looking over at the TV for a minute before getting up to stand in front of it. "Chaz, look at the new TV show playing right now." He said with a laughed, turning around to rub all over the screen. He slid his tongue up the screen, and turned his back to it as he danced a little.

Chaz snapped out of whatever trance he was in while watching the un-important show on the screen, and threw a pillow at Justin. "I don't want to watch you make love to the TV, dude. Now get off of it, you're on it like, everyday, not let someone else have a turn." He demanded.

Justin laughed and moved away from the TV. He went back to the couch arm and looked over at Chaz, who had turned the TV off so he could pay attention to us. "So what was that about me being pretty cool?" He asked, glancing over to me with a laugh. "I am most definitely pretty and cool, except for when I wet myself from excitement. Then I'm just lame and stupid."

I bursted out in laughter at him. He always made me laugh. He said the dumbest and weirdest things, but they were hilarious at the same time. Justin laughed as well, "I hate to break it to you, Chaz, but you're always lame and stupid. You're still not that good looking either."

Getting to hang out with Justin was pretty fun. We talked about a bunch of normal, random stuff. He told me some funny stories about him and Chaz growing up together and such. He was really sweet and down to earth. I could tell we were going to get along just fine.
