STELLA'S POV

It's aw week since I met Lorenzo's family, and everything has been great. I don't really know what me and Lorenzo are tho. It's like we're not dating but we're still more than friends. I think...

School starts in about one and a half month, and I am kind of excited but very nervous, even though it's still a while till it starts. I'm also trying to practice more football, before the season starts because I'm starting a new team and obviously I don't know the level on the team and I have to make it through try outs. It's not like in America tho, because here they don't have like school teams it's more clubs and stuff so i'm trying out for the club Lorenzo plays for, just the girls and not the boys of course.

Lorenzo tells me that the girls are pretty good, but that he thinks I will make it in easily, but you can never be too sure. Anyways I'm trying to practice every day, and run every day to stay in shape even if it's summer break.

This past week I've been playing a lot with the guys actually, and they are really good. I play attacking mid and Lorenzo play defensive mid, and we play really good together. Usually we play with the guys from Lorenzos team, and some of his friends that used to play football but quit. We just have fun and mess around but at the same time it feels like serious and we all wanna be and do our best.

I feel like what I've learned is to surround yourself with people who want the best for you, and want to help you be the best version of yourself rather than people who just cares about themselves and drags you down instead of lifting you up, and I truly feel like I've found those right people. They just make me want do be the best me, and it feels like they want the best for me too and I just am so happy when I am with them. Who you surround yourself with truly reflects on how you act and the person you are.

I do really miss my friends back home, and my grandparents have been talking about taking a trip back home right before school starts, so like in the end of august which is only like a month away.

I put in my airpods and changed into my favorite running shoes and outfit and and starting running. I genuinely can not run if I don't listen to music whilst running, it's just physically impossible for me. I ran for a good 1 and a half hours and then I got back home and took a shower and changed. Today I don't really have any plans, because Lorenzo has plans with his family and it feels weird hanging out with the others without him there. I was thinking of just going to a coffee shop and just read a book or something. I find it so peaceful and cute going to a coffee shop, and back in Charleston I would be scared to go alone because I've always had this social anxiety and been kind of scared of being alone, but I'm starting to become more at peace with it. More at peace with me.

I put on a pink laced v-neck shirt with some blue true religion shorts, my golden gooses and my miu miu bag.

In my bag I packed my laptop, a book, some lipgloss and money. I put in my airpods and started walking to my new favorite coffee shop. I come here almost every day now, either taking a coffee with me or sitting at my usual table. It feels good to have somewhere I can always go. The workers here even know my regular order by now, and I always have a little chat with the old woman working at the register.

I sat down at my table and put on my music and started reading my book. Right now i'm reading heart bones by colleen hoover and so far i'm liking it.

Whilst I was sitting there reading my book I suddenly felt a tap on my shoulder. I turned around and saw a really pretty girl. She had brown face framing layers, and the most beautiful tan and hazel eyes. She was absolutely stunning, and I loved her style. She wore an isabel marant blouse with a denim skirt and isabel marant shoes. She was like the brown eyes brunette version of me and I loved it.
