Chereads / Lovely Complications / Chapter 24 - ''STELLA!!!!!''

Chapter 24 - ''STELLA!!!!!''

Stella listened to bethany footsteps on till she can't hear it again, She thought about her time with bethany even though their interaction was short and they only known each other for less than 2 days. She has to admit she genuinely enjoy her company even though it was mostly about her. She remember how bethany was like and now, how she is always crying, but one thing that always made her wonder is bethany has a lot of friends she isn't like gemma who only communicate with the gang and a few

Very few!!

People out of the gang so why is she so determined to make me her friend again. Is it because she like me too much? or because she felt we have a good connection that we clicked immediately we met. As she was thinking she remember a distant memory. One of the memories she has kept locked up n a corner of her mind

''CHERRY!!!! CHERRY!!!!!!''Little Stella shouted as she ran bare foot as she looked for cherry in the school as she bumped into someone "SORRY!!!" She shouted in surpise

Stella closed her eyes as she remember the events that happened 11 years ago like it is happening right before her eyes

''Stella where are you going to'' Mrs Emma ask

''I'm looking for cherry'' little stella said in one breath as she ran away

''STELLA!!!!'' Mrs emma shouted but little stella has ran away

As she is running around looking for cherry, little stella walked in the hallway that much people don't walk here but little stella continued walking with the thought that cherry is here since she and cherry normally come here to play or hide away from teachers

''CHERRY!!! CHERRY!!!'' Little stella shouted, she paused to catch her breath that's when she heard a faint sound, she looked around and went in the direction where she heard the sound that was getting louder and louder, she could finally make out the sound, it was coming from someone. She paused, then started walking slowly till it got faster and faster on till she started running

''PETER!!!'' Little stella shouted as she saw the 6 years old boy curled up in a corner, whining and crying in pain, without thinking she knelt down beside him as she want to remove his hand to have a closer look but before her hand can touch him he held her hand and squeeze it so tight that it cause her eyes to be filled with tears making her scream in pain ''AH!!!!!!''

Little stella immediately closed her mouth and used her free hand to remove his hands from his body, what she saw made her gasp in fear and surprise, she immediately remove her hand from his hold and ran out

Little stella ran as fast as she could to the first classroom she saw and shouted ''PETER NEEDS HELP!!!!!'' The teacher immediately dropped what she was doing and followed little stella to where peter is

As little stella watched as they carried peter out cherry came towards her with her face filled with tears ''My brother will be alright stella, right?, it will be like the other times when he comes out safe, right?''

Little stella hugged little cherry has her own face was filled with tears

Stella opened her eyes as she felt something warm on her face, she raised her hand to wipe the tears ways ''I'm sorry.....'' She whispered

.... ..... ....

During the party that friday night, Stella is standing on the balcony with her hands on the railings looking at the city. if not for gemma call reminding her about the party tonight she wouldn't have come, she would have lie in all night readjusting her thoughts but she decided to have some fun, coming to the party she started drowning wine like it's water which didn't worry her because the wine contains small alcohol

Like really small!!!

Since i'm not a good drinker

After partying, dancing and different types of games, she came to the balcony as she wore white crop top, short black skirt, a black jean jacket, black sunglass, black high heels boot, her fiery red hair let down, sliver ear ring, necklace and bangle as her jade green eyes looked at the city. New york is more beautiful at night, it deserves the name the city that never sleeps

''I didn't know you can be wild'' She didn't need to turn to know who it is, this is one of the voice she will never forget in her life

''You have been watching me'' Stella raised her eyebrow

''Who hasn't, you have been the star of the show'' Max said and Stella smiled a little

''You aren't here to bully me'' Stella said but her smile didn't fall as she looked at the city, she felt at peace and she wants to keep it that way

She heard max footsteps as he stopped beside her ''If i was you wouldn't be having peace now''

Stella scoff ''So you are the one to decide when i have peace of not''

''I have the power to decide, when you have the power. you can decide yours and others life''

''So you agree your a bully''

''I never denied it''

Stella kept quiet as she though over his words, only when you have the power can you decide the life you want or else someone can just make you do what they want you to do without being able to defend, you will always be at their because you don't have the strength to fight back, as she let his words sink in she drank her wine as she kept on looking at the beautiful view of New York ''The view is beautiful, isn't it''

''It is, very beautiful more than the stars in the sky'' Max said and Stella turned to look at him to see him looking at her, it took two seconds before realization hit her and her eyes widen in surprise, she saw max lean closer to her and even though her mind said that she should push him away it's like her body has a mind of its own, by the time she came back to her sense. she has kissed max

MAX!!!!!!!

Of all people in the party it just had to be him!!!!!

She didn't wait to understand!!

She didn't dare to!!!

She ran away!!!!
