Stella's Pov:

I was uncapable of feeling as I watched them take her away.

I just sat there. No emotions on my face showing.

I didn't shed a tear or say a word.

I was silent. All that I could hear was my own heartbeat.

After a few minutes of reminiscing on what had just happen, I finally had the strength to stand up.

I started walking out of the room, looking back at it one last time.

At least she's not stuck in here anymore.

I made my way out of the hospital, a strange feeling taking over me as I realized I wouldn't come back again.

I looked around, and my eyes suddenly met Kelsey.

As soon as she saw me, I knew she knew.

She walked over to me.

"Oh Stella I am- I am so sorry." She said and I just faked a smile.

"It's not your fault. I just wish I could've spent more time with her." I said, my voice dull.

"It was nice meeting you." I added and hugged her, before walking away.

"I'll miss you." She said and I walked out the door.

When I got home, I pretended it was just a regular day.

I fed the dog.

I made myself a sandwhich.

I watched TV.

But none of that was going to cut it.

I knew Ty, and I weren't on speaking terms but I couldn't just pretend Jane hadn't just died.

I found myself looking down at my phone screen, my finger debating whether or not to press the 'Call' button.

As if they had a mind of their own, my fingers tapped it and I put the phone up to my ear.

On the fourth ring, I heard his voice.

"Hello?"

"Ty..." I whispered, my voice soft.

I was afraid, and nervous. But what I felt the most was shame.

"Yeah..?"

"Jane...she-" my voice cracked, weakness taking over me.

There was a silence.

"Oh no. Oh my- I'm so sorry I..." He started, realizing what I meant. "I'll be right there." He said, before hanging up.

Part of me felt it was Harry who I was supposed to call, but I couldn't.

He didn't understand the situation the way Ty did. I knew it was unfair, but he wasn't here anyways.

He couldn't do anything over the computer screen. I needed a friend to be with me.

I knew pitying myself was pathetic but I just needed someone to talk to.

I couldn't just pretend I didn't miss Ty and that I was alright.

I wasn't.

Suddenly, I heard a knock on my door.

I stood up and opened it.

Ty walked in and I shut the door.

We both sat down and just stared at each other in silence.

Almost as if both of us were unsure of what to do.

He decided to break the silence that surrounded us.

"I'm so sorry about Jane." He started, "I know that's the last thing you want to hear because I know you hate acts of pity but I truly am. I visited her a few times and I understand why you loved her so much. I wanted her to live just as much as you did. I really am sorry because I know she was the only person who was loyal to you."

"I..." I said, completely blown away because it really sounded like he cared. "Thanks Ty. I just wish I could've seen her more often because I lost her so suddenly." I said and that's when I couldn't take it anymore.

Tears started running down my face, and as much as I tried to stop it, sobs escaped my lips.

I looked at his eyes, and they were filled with sadness.

He wrapped his arms around me and I realized I had missed him way too much.

"What am I going to do without her?" I mumbled into his shoulder.

He smelt good. A smell of cinnamon and coffee.

Of course.

"I'll promise I'll be here for you. Please let's not fight again. I missed my best friend too much." He said.

"You've got Ann. I thought she was your best friend. In fact, aren't you dating?" I said, and mentally scolded myself for letting that comment slip out. Jealousy was hard to keep in I guess.

Wait no I wasn't jealous.

Or was I?

"Yeah uh, no we're not really dating. But she is a close friend." He said, feeling slightly awkward.

"Oh. Well I missed you." I admitted abd his eyes lit up.

"Really? I thought you were having a blast with Harry and your preppy friends..."He said.

I shrugged.

"Yeah I like being with Harry, but the preps are alright. I like you better." I said, smiling up at him.

Suddenly, my eyes flicked down to his lips and his eyes copied mine.

I felt the urge to look away, but it was like I had been paralyzed and couldn't move or look away.

Before my brain could process what was happening, his lips locked with mine and as if my hands had a mind of their own, they tangled up in his hair.

His hands grabbed my waist and our lips moved in sync.

Suddenly, my senses came back to reality and I quickly backed away, breathless.

We both looked at each other in shock.

"I-I uh..." I stuttered, not quite sure what the right thing to say was.

"Sorry." Ty said.

"No, I- it was my fault I just..." I apologized.

"You just what?"

"I guess I kind of wanted to do that...oh gosh did I say that out loud?" I started,

"No. I shouldn't have. Wow I'm a horrible girlfriend." I mumbled.

"No it was my fault too. Can we just forget this?"

"No! I can't just forget. How am I supposed to pretend it's okay when I know I have feelings for you?" I blurted out.

"You do?" He asked, his eyes lighting up.

"I don't know what to do okay? I need time to think." I said, and a second later my l phone made a 'ding' noise.

I looked at the screen.

Message from HarHarHar:

;)

I scrunched my eyebrows in confusion.

"What?" Ty asked.

"I don't know." I said.

Suddenly, I heard two knocks at the entrance door.

Ty and I walked over to it, and I opened.

My eyes widened as I saw the tall figure standing before me.m

"Surprise."
