Finally, my birthday.

(Honestly forgot how old she is so let's just go with 19)

When I wake up, Elio isn't there.

I groan and reach for his side of the bed.

When I give up on him coming back, I lay face first in his pillow.

"Morning." I hear someone say.

I gasp, being over dramatic, and roll over. "Baby! I missed you!" I hold out my arms.

He wore a oversized black sweater and rolled up jeans. I smile wide. "I missed that sweater."

"Yeah?" He smiles back, laying back down.

"Yeah. You look adorable in it." I let him lay on my chest. "Although, I think it would look better on the floor."

He tenses for a second, surprised. "I think I can make that happen."

I press my lips to his, and roll on top of him. He tries to grab my waist, but I grab his wrist and pin them above his head. If he really wanted, he could have gotten out of my grasp, but he seemed so turned on from, he let me do what I wanted.

I roll my hips down, earning a gasp from him. His eyes screwed shut. "More.."

"Someone's here to-" Mrs. Perlman walks in.

I look up as if it were nothing. "Hm?"

"I knew it." She mumbles. "Oh and someone's here to see you." She walks off.

"I'll be right back baby." I whisper and let go of his hands.

When I get outside, I see Katy, Eddie, and Annie, another one of my friends.

"Oh my god!" I yell and run into their arms.

"We missed you so much." Katy whispers.

When we pull away, I notice the stray tear on Eddies cheek. I lightly punch his arm. "Don't be a baby."

He laughs and wipes it.

Elio strides out the door, looking back and forth between the group and me.

I run over to him and grab his hand.

Annie and Katy stood with their jaws on the floor. "You were right Stella, he is beautiful." Annie smirks.

I hide my blush when he looks down at me.

"Anyways, guys. This is my boyfriend, Elio." I introduce. "Elio, this is Katy, Annie, and.. Eddie."

He grits his teeth. I knew he was already mad about the Max guy, now their was just another person.

"Eddie. Hi." He says and shakes his hand firmer than needed.

"Elio, can I talk to you for a minute?" I ask, pulling him inside.

We end up in the living room.

"Look I'm sorry. I had no idea-"

"You have so many guys. You have Eddie, who's attractive, Luca, who has perfect hair, Max, who has blue eyes and blonde hair, and me. Me with my stupid messy hair, skinny body, stupid. I look stupid standing next to them. God, your stupid for choosing me! Hell, maybe I'm stupid for letting myself believe that I was good enough! That maybe, I was really the one you deserved!" He yells, arms flailing.

I'm frozen, heartbroken. "You don't mean that." I whisper as tears fall down my cheeks.

"Yeah. I actually do!" He runs his fingers through his hair.
