School was school like everyday today.

Carter and I talked after school like how we've been doing all week. it's finally Friday.

And yes, every time I walked to Carter Christopher left. Asshole.

"Hey babe" I've gotten closer to Carter and he's been calling me all of the pet names. All but love. Shut up, Stella! Carter isn't Christopher and that's good

"Hey" He hugs me, and I hug back.

"I'm going to Chris' house. Are you coming?" Uhhh, i probably shouldn't, but i really want to get Christopher and I on better terms.

"Sure, I have to talk to him" Carter looks at me strangely.

"Talk?" His jaw noticeably clenches. Oh

"Yeah, we're not on good terms right now. I just want it to be fine between us especially because he's your best friend" I say explaining. Carter nods, but doesn't say anything.

"Okay, well let's go" He takes my hand, and we both go to his car.

•~•~•

We both walk hand in hand into the Andrews' house.

"Yo, Chris!" Carter hollers out. Claire comes out from the kitchen.

"Oh hey, Carter... and Stella?" I give her a smile and a small wave. Her eyes go down to our hands, and she visually slumps.

"Are you okay?" I ask. She looks up and smiles.

"I didn't know you two were together" She comments. Carter smiles from beside me.

"Yep we've been going strong for a week" He looks down at me, and i give him a smile.

"Chris is in his room" I nod and go upstairs pulling Carter with me.

I go to his door and hesitate before going in. I open the door and there is Christopher laying upside down on his bed. He's so weird.

"Yo, Chris" Christopher doesn't get scared as he lifts his head and turns to look at Carter. He sees me and turns back to look at the roof. Wow, rude.

"How's it going" Carter says from beside me. Christopher groans and sits upright.

"Why are you here?" He asks rudely and glares at me. Woah okay what the hell did I do?

"I'm your friend, and i'm always here" Carter says and makes a face at him

"Yeah i'll talk to you, but not with your little whore" uhm... WHAT? Whore! how.. what... huh?!

"What did you just say?" My voice comes out as a squeak.

"I said you are a whore" I gasp. I honestly just didn't know what to do but gasp. I am not a slut. I am so not! What the hell?
