los angeles;

s h a w n

i was currently driving me and stella to a little mountain where when you go to the very top you can see the whole city. i found it one time i was driving by myself. it's the perfect place to give her the necklace.

i look to my right now see stella eating her fries.

"you were really hungry weren't you?" i asked her. it was obvious she was because it's barely been five minutes since we left in n out and she almost half way done with them.

she just nods. "so where are we going?" she asked.

stella has been asking that question since we got in the car and i don't get why she asked of she know i'm not telling her.

"you're a really impatient person you know that?" i looked at her. "tell me already!"

"no!" then she throws a fry at my face.

"hey! that really hurt you know that." she throws another one.

"stop making a mess in my car or you'll have to clean it." i tell her seriously even though i'm kidding.

"fine but hurry up though!" she pouted. she looked so f.ucking cute though.

-

the entry ride consisted of stella asking questions and me just saying she has to wait. she eventually said that he was going to take a nap, which was perfectly fine for me because it meant i wouldn't get distracted.

thirty minutes later we finally made it the mountain. i parked kinda on the edge for we can sit on my car while looking at the view.

i undid my seat belt at looked at stella. she was perfectly sleeping. i didn't want to wake her up but i had to.

"stell wake up." she didn't move.

"stellllll." she wouldn't move so i got out of the car and went all around to her side. opening the for i called her name again.

"stells baby wake up." she shuffled around a bit until she was facing me.

"i love it when you call me stells baby." she yawned. i smiled at her. gosh she looks so gorgeous just waking up.

it took her a minute to look around and see where we are. she finally got of of the car and went to the front of it looking out to the city.

"wow." i heard her say. "this is so beautiful."

"just like you." i whispered. she didn't hear me.

"why are we here again?" she asked curious.

i went to the front of my car and say down. she did the same.

"i just like looking out to the city. thought you would like it to." i told her looking at the big city of los angeles.

"well i love it." she smiled and scooted scolded to me.

"you cold?" i asked her. she probably was i don't know why i was asking.

"just a little." she shivered.

i took off my jacket and put it around here. "thanks." she smiled.

"you know i've always wanted to get out of l.a like go some place different. everyone says that l.a is the best place to live, and it is, but when you lived your whole life in the city it's boring. i want to travel the world. or like live somewhere different. like maybe new york, paris, or even miami. but anything but living my whole life in l.a." stella finished.

"wow, you really don't want to live here." i chuckled slowly putting my arm around her pulling her closer.

"it's just the fact that staying in one place my whole life isn't what i want. after high school i plan on going to new york and just like live there. see what it's like to live somewhere else where no one knows me. where no one knows me as being nash's hot sister or little mis perfect or whatever people know me by. i just want to see what it is to have a fresh start," she looked up at me, "to be someone else besides stella grier."

i looked down at her. "but what's so wrong about being you. you're perfect."

"exactly shawn! you of all should know that i don't live the perfect life that everyone thinks. i have so much problems that i can't even fix by myself, and there's no one there to help me. i sometimes cry myself to sleep because of my problems." she says, her eyes slowly getting watery.

"stell.." i said not knowing exactly what to say to her. "i'm always here for you. no matter what happens I WILL ALWAYS be here for you."

"thanks shawn, but i know you won't always be with me." she said looking down at her feet.

"yes i will," i take out the small box with the necklace and give it to her. "what's this?" she asked.

she opens it and she's the necklace with my name on it. she gives me a confused look. i take the necklace and put it on her.

"i will always be with you. even in your darkest and most saddest times, i will. you just look at the necklace and know that i'm always thinking about you." i smile at her.

she looks up at me and on that moment i knew that everything was going to be alright.
