the duo walked inside and immediately ivy wrapped stella in a hug.
"hi ivy!" stella smiled once they broke apart.
"hello dear, oh look at you, your so grown up!" ivy laughed. "i am i am" stella laughed alongside her.
last year stella stayed with jack and his family for a week before going back to oregon.
they loved her dearly.
"oh stella!" jack's father shouted hugging the girl.
"i love your hair!" ivy smiled to her.
"thanks ivy and hello john! so glad to be back, you guys make me feel so welcome" stella explained.
"oh dear thats our only goal" john smiled.
jack laughed a bit and helped stella carry her things up stairs, "you can stay in the guest room like before" jack explained.
"hey jack?" stella muttered, "yeah whats up stel" jack asked sitting beside her.
"i need to tell you something" stella told him.
his facial expression changed quickly, "are you- you okay?" jack asked rubbing her hand with his thumb.
"i- uh i think i like girls " they spoke. her eyes watered fearing that one of her closest friends wouldn't except her.
"for fucks sake stella, why are you crying?" he smiled hugging her.
"i was scared you wouldnt wanna be my friend anymore" stella laughed at how stupid she sounded.
"you truly are stupid" he laughed hugging her still.
"ill love you no matter what stella, even if the sky is falling or the ground collapsing" he whispered.
"i love you too" stella laughed.
