Chapter 24 - Been Awhile
Axel Cesborn
"Where are you going? The BBQ will start in 10 minutes" My mom said holding my arm preventing me to go
"Mom.. I'm picking up my girlfriend" I said and her eyes widen
"Stella?"
"Yes" I said and she smiled widely. She let me go and I walked out from my house.
"Where are you going?" Matt asked
"Picking up Stella" I said and he smirked. He patted my shoulder and he walked into the house. I got into my car and drove out from my house.
I can't wait to see Stella, is it weird that I just dropped her this morning back to her house but I want to see her again after a few hours?
"Hello" I found myself smiling when she answered the call.
"You ready?" I asked
"Yeah, you're already in fron-"
"In 3 minutes"
"Okay, I'll go down now"
"See you"
"See you, Axel" She said and ended the call.
Stella is a really sweet person. She kept being sweet and nice when I was so cold to her. She melted my heart slowly until I can't be cold to her anymore.
I was being mean to her because I want to make this thick barrier so people won't hurt me because I'm so nice and so kind. I hate people using me again and again because of my kindness.
But as the time goes by.. Stella proved me that she's not fake. She's just being herself and never judge me because of my coldness. She kept being nice to me.
I can't keep my thick barrier with her. Everytime we see each other.. she broke the barrier a little by little. It was amazing. No one ever reached this level. People usually gave up before even tying to break it down.
I arrived at her house and I saw her walking out from her house. She was wearing a grey sweatshirt with a black shorts. She looked beautiful as always. She got into the car and smiled.
"Hello.." She said cheerfully
"Hey" I said
"I should have just go there by my car, it's your house anyway. You're suppose to be there not picking me up" She said.
I like the fact that she never want people to be in difficult times because of her. She's that sweet and kind. She insisted that she will go to my house alone without me picking her up but I kept insisting that I will pick her up.
We argued on the phone and I won.
"Don't worry. It's fine. What's that?" I pointed.
"Oh I made a chocolate and mocha pudding for dessert" She said excitedly and I smiled secretly
"You cook again?"
"I'm trying okay? I already tried it and it's good. I promise you" She said and I chuckled
"I don't trust you.. did you burn the house?" I asked teasing her
"Almost but thank God my maid helped me a lot"
"Just don't cook next time, I can cook"
"No, I have to learn how to cook. I need to make my husband happy right?" She asked turning her head to me
"You'll burn the house down with your poor skill" I said and she laughed
"Don't be mean.. so what's your favorite food?" She asked
"Salmon steak and japanese curry" I said
"Noted!"
"You'll make it for me?"
"I'll try.. I need time but I promise I will make it for you" She said and I smiled turning to her
"Good to hear that and can't wait!"
We arrived at my house again. We got out from the car and I walked to her. I held her hand and pulled her inside. Everyone already gathered beside the pool.
"Stella.." My mom came and hugged her
"Hello.. Mrs. Cesborn"
"Alissa please.. call me Alissa" Mom said and Stella nodded
"This is for you Alissa" Stella gave the pudding to my mom. She looked it and can't help but squealed.
"I love this type of pudding so much" My mom said happily. I can't believe she was a model, she eats like hungry soldier.
"Thankyou, Stella" Mom squealed again and pulled Stella with her. I can't help but be happy that my family loves her.
"I love the fact that you fall in love again" Cailey stood beside me and I turned to her.
Me? Fall in love again? Good to hear that people believe that. We both good at acting.. I guess.
"Yeah" I lied
"She's the sweetest person that I've ever met" Autumn said
"She is" I agreed
"She's a keeper" Cailey patted my shoulder and walked away
"I heard Trissa hurted her, is she okay?" Autumn asked
"Trissa hurted her quite bad, it left her a big scar on her arms" I answered
"That bitch, next time we need to teach her a lesson"
"If she hurt Stella again, I will make sure that I'll throw her to jail" I said seriously
"Why didn't Stella attack Trissa? She knew how to beat girls at some point right?" Autumn asked
It was my fault. I asked her to not touch Trissa in everyway. She was hurted because of me. I should have never said that. She didn't even touch Trissa. How can she be so dumb?
Trissa was attacking her like crazy but she stayed still? It was crazy to imagine it but she really did hold on my words. She was hurting but she controled her temper just because I told her to not to hurt Trissa.
Gosh Stella, you're unbelievable.
How can you even remember what I say while she was attacking? I'm damn confuse with you, Stella.
"Good to see you with that eyes again, Axel" My little brother, Joel said.
"It's been awhile" He added and I found myself smiling
