Idiot

After that day, any incident with Ben that made me feel disgusting didn’t happen as I was so careful. But I could feel his gaze on me always. And about Harry! Harry being Harry. He always irritates me. Did I mention about granny? Yeah! There’s a lot to tell. During these days, I got so close to her. We both even started roaming the town. She loves me like she loves Harry. I often go to Harry’s house to meet her and if harry presents there then it would be a hell of day.

And Anna! Her love on Roman reached peaks from the day he fought. She had been thinking he fought to save her. But the truth was he came along with his friend and whenever I tried to put the sense in Anna's head, she never listened. She kept dreaming about him as her Romeo as if she was a Juliet.

I was in my bedroom, laid on my bed and playing games. My little fun was interrupted by my mom.

“Stella! You’ve been neglecting your studies. Always playing games or doing sketches.” My mom shouted crossing her arms.

“Mom! Come on. I’m not a school student. I’ve grown up. I’m in college now. I can’t only stick to my studies.” I rolled my eyes.

My mom gave me a look which told me to shut my stupid talk. And I zipped my mouth.

“I’ve made sweets. Take them to Harry’s house.” She said.

I stopped playing and let out a sigh.

“Mom! An hour ago I came from my college. Can’t you even think that I must be tired? Show some pity on this poor creature.”

“If it’s roaming the town with Anna then you weren’t tired. But now! You are tired and couldn’t even walk to a little distance. And you always shouts ‘My granny’, ‘My Abi granny’. This is how you show your love on her? You can’t even take sweets to her home.”

With that words I understood why my mom got attached to Harry. They both convinces me to do things by giving a stupid irritating lecture.

I let out a sigh and stood from my bed. “Fine! Where is the sweets box?”

We both strolled to the dining table and I was welcomed by the smell of sweets which was tempting me to eat. But I couldn’t touch them till I do my work which she assigned.

I took the box and walked to his house. I reached the house after few minutes. I strolled in calling her “Gran! Granny!”

She came out of her room smiling. I smiled back and walked to her. We both hugged and I handed her the sweets box. We went inside her room and began talking. She kept talking a lot of things about Uncle Zach, his silly doings and many other things. Most of his doings were similar to my dad’s. We both kept laughing talking about them. She then started talking about Harry. Few things about him made me laugh out loud.

I didn’t notice time while talking to her. It’s nearly an hour since I reached the house. I thought to leave but she didn’t let me go. She asked me to stay with her for a while. I called my mom and informed that I would be late to house. We then continued talking. After many minutes I again decided to start to my house that’s when we heard sounds from outside and we were puzzled hearing the laughs of many guys. Granny and I looked at eachother with confused faces. I stood from the bed and when I was about to step out to see who was there, few people entered in the room.

Two guys and two girls entered following Harry, laughing. Looking at them, granny’s face lit up and her eyes sparkled.

“Abi!” The girls shouted and ran to her. They hugged her so tight leaving no space to breath. The guys then strolled to her and started talking. I stood still looking at everyone. Harry walked forward and stood beside me.

“My friends. From city.” He said.

I nodded hearing him. Suddenly all of his friends turned to me which made my heart skip a beat. A blondie of height same as mine pointed her finger at me saying “You are Stella. Am I right?”

My eyes widened hearing my name from her mouth. I simply nodded at her.

“Wow! You look more beautiful than in pictures.” She said strolling towards me.

I was confused and looked at Harry. He was just smirking at me.

“I heard many things about you. Harry told me.” She said looking at us.

“She is gorgeous.” A brown haired guy of medium height said looking at me and another dark blondie hit his stomach with her elbow.

“Guys! Granny needs rest. I think we should go out from here.” Harry said.

“Yes.” The blondie said and caught my hand.

What the hell! Why did she held my hand?

“Bye Abi.” She waved her hand and Granny waved back smiling. Everyone strolled out and she dragged me too along with them.

“I should go.” I told her while walking.

“No. You are spending your time with us.” Saying that she literally hauled me with her. I tried to go away but I couldn’t.

What? She can’t be serious. Everyone of us reached Harry’s room and sat comfortably on couches. The blondie was behaving like she was at her home. Everyone sat except me. Harry held my hand and made me sit beside him. I looked at him with my enlarged eyes.

“Don’t look at me like that. Everyone will think you are trying me.” Harry smirked.

I scoffed listening to him and kept silent.

“Stella! The girl with no boyfriend in her life till now.” The blondie said.

I gave her a look that expressed many things and questions. She then said “Okay! Let us introduce ourselves. I’m Jessie and she is my sister Jennie.” She then pointed her hand at boys and said “Oliver and Jaden. Oliver is Jennie’s boyfriend whereas Jade is mine.”

So what should I do? Should I get excited for your relationships? I thought myself.

Harry took out beers from his case and handed everyone a bottle. They all started drinking.

“You are a good girl, aren’t you?” The dark blondie; Jennie laughed looking at me.

“Yes she is.” Harry said smirking.

“When Harry told about you, we were really excited to meet a girl like you.” Oliver told looking at me.

Why? Did you all think I came from Mars?

“What did Harry tell you about me?” I asked looking at him.

“He said he met a weird girl who never had boyfriend, always does good things... and he told you are a princess of this hometown.”

I looked at Harry who was smirking at me. They all kept talking many things which made me cover my ears with my palms while hearing few sentences. With my actions, everyone started laughing.

“I bet you are still a virgin.” Jessie said looking at me.

Everyone turned to me hearing her. My eyes widened with her sentence and I felt uncomfortable talking about things like that. I never had experience in talking of words infront of guys. I kept silent.

“You are not replying anything.” Jennie said.

“Um... yes.”

They laughed and everyone was giving me weird looks as if I did a big crime.

“Little girl.” Jennie mumbled and started kissing Oliver wildly, ignoring everyone. Ew!

Felt uncomfortable in their presence, I stood from the bed.

“Mom might be waiting for me. I should leave.” I said and without waited for their reply. I walked out of the room.

Being in the room with guys like them made me feel suffocated but after I walked out I was relaxed. When I was climbing down the stairs, I heard Harry shouting behind me “Stella!”

I stopped walking and he stood beside me. Before he opened his mouth, I yelled “Put some sense in your friends heads to not drag me along with them the next time.”

He laughed hearing me. I crossed my arms and shouted “I didn’t tell any joke.”

“They all behave friendly, unlike you.” He smirked.

That’s it. I was already frustrated. He added fuel to it. Without saying anything I strolled out of the house. He came behind me. He was calling my name but I didn’t respond. He held my wrist and made me turn to him.

“Where are you going?”

“Seriously? Where would I go? To my home.”

“How? By walk.”

“No. On a plane.”

He rolled his eyes hearing my answer and said “Get in the car.”

I raised my eyebrow and said “No.”

"Stella!I'll drop you."

"You are drunk but saying you would drop me."

"Come on! I took a sip that's it. I didn't drink properly."

"Whatever, no." I said with angry face.

His expression turned serious and started stepping towards me. He stood in front of me crowding, leaving only little space between us.

“If you won’t get in, then you can’t go home. And I hope you know about me.”

His tone was serious which made me gulp. He pointed his hand to a car. We both strolled to it and started to my home.

He suddenly laughed out loud which made me flinch. Pyscho!

“I frightened you.” He said laughing.

I rolled my eyes hearing him. We both kept silent then I spoke “Did you tell them for real?”

“What?”

“I mean, did you tell them that I’m a princess of this town?” I asked looking at him.

“Yeah!” he said casually.

“Why?” I asked not shifting my gaze from his emerald eyes.

“Because you are classy. Royal. And you are the princess.”

A small smile appeared on my lips hearing him and I became silent. After few minutes we reached my home and I got down.

“Stella!” he called me. I bent forward and saw him through the car window.

“You are royal. Classy.” Hearing him again my lips curved up with smile. Looking at me his lips curved up with a smirk. He continued telling “Oh Stella! I’m sorry I lied to you. I consider myself as a prince and you are going to be my girlfriend. So prince’s girlfriend is princess.” He laughed.

My expression changed hearing him. I let out a sigh and shouted “You are not a prince. You are an idiot."

Saying that I started walking away.

“Bye Stella.” He shouted and drove off.

Argh! He is really a douche, idiot, stupid and everything I couldn’t curse. I entered the living hall and saw my parents watching TV. They asked me to accompany them but I didn’t and ran to my bedroom. I lay on my bed thinking about everything that happened today.
