Stella Martins had always been so sure about what she wants in life... until she met Chase Johnson. What If... she started to fall for him? What If... he's always showing her signs that he likes her more than she thinks? What If... he actually felt...
I cried myself to sleep and woke up at around 7 in the evening. I glanced around me and saw that Rue actually bought me some to-go-food from a restaurant outside the university and left me a note that she'd be back by 9 because she went to a hotel for a dinner with her family. Rue bought me some medicine as well and placed them on my bedside table together with a glass of water. I took my phone and saw that I had 3 voice mails from Rue, 4 missed calls from Chase and 2 text messages from Josh. I opened Rue's voice mails:
"Heyya Stella! You okay? Call or text me when you wake up okay? Love ya!"
"Stella, honey, in case you didn't notice. I left some medicine and dinner for you there. Take care!"
"Oh and btw, we need to talk tomorrow, okay? Chase told me what happened, so yeah. Don't worry, it'll be alright. I love you!"
I was touched by what Rue did for me. She's always been the best friend to me ever since I got here. She's like my guardian angel and long-lost-sister morphed into one. I called her but her phone was busy, and it went straight to voice mail.
"Hey Rue. I just woke up and yes, I saw the meds and all the food you bought me. Thank you so much for all the effort. And yeah, we need to talk tomorrow, or later. My eyes are all swollen from crying, haha! Anyway, have fun there! I love you too! And thank you so much, again, for always being there for me."

Josh didn't respond. I was all alone in my room so I decided to play some music to calm my mind. After 20 minutes, I heard a knock on the door.
"Who is it?"
*knock, knock* "Delivery for Miss Martins."
"Uhh, just a sec."
Seriously? I didn't recall ordering anything. Maybe it was Rue's idea or something. So I got out of bed and stumbled on my way to the door. Just as I opened it, I was surprised to see that it was Josh.

"Surprise! I brought some food!" he smiled.
"I.. uhh, like, wow. What's this for?" I smiled at him, still looking a bit shocked.
