Him... Stuart Twombly

Needs a Friend

Chapter 4 / Re-write

Ella's POV

Just a lil fluff, I'm rly sorry for not updating in ages, I hope you guys enjoy :)

"Hey girl." I look up at the sudden voice and see Neha at the foot of my bed. "What you watching?" She questions as she jumps onto my bed.

"I'm watching YouTube videos," I pause the video and take out my ear phone. "Just trying to pass some time before Andy gets home. We are planning to Skype after she finishes work. She'll be calling any minute if you want to stay and join?"

"Uh fuck, I was just going to ask if you want to come out with me. Get some drinks, meet some guys. You know, socialise, I don't know if you're familiar with the word." A little cheeky smile crept onto her lips as she says the last part.

"Oh shut up, I socialise. I did earlier today remember? You, me, Lyle, Yo-Yo... Lunch?" I said hoping she won't notice that I didn't say Stuart's name.

"And...?" Fuck, I really need to try and make things less obvious. "Stuart?"

"Oh yeah, Stuart. Can't forget Stuart, haha..."

Awkward silence fills the air as Neha looks at me. She says nothing and her eyes are emotionless, but somehow she makes me spill out everything. "Well you didn't see because you were so distracted, but we hugged." I saw a massive smile sliding onto her face, and I stop her before she says anything. "Which isn't that big of a deal, friends hug, just friends." I give her a weak smile and I try to telepathically tell her to not over react.

It seems like she understands what I'm trying to tell her. "Aw okay that's cute. Anything else you want to tell me before I go get dressed?"

I pause for a second and think about whether or not to tell Neha that I've started having feeling for the beanie wearing boy. Fuck it, I'll just tell her. "I might have a tiny tiny small crush on him. He's like my type you know? Hot and super cute at the same time, kind of lanky, nice sexy brown hair. Just my type I guess."

Neha squeals a little and starts jumping on my bed yelling. "I knew it! I knew it!"

I just stare at her and laugh while clutching my laptop to my chest, hoping and praying it doesn't break. My laptop is my baby and if ANYTHING, happens to it, I'd die.

"Neha calm down please." I laugh out.

She jumps off my bed, gives me a hug and says. "I ship you guys so much. But know I've got to go get ready for my night out! Talk to you later sis, Byeee!" With that Neha skips to my door, twirls and then runs off.

"Be safe!"

...-...

*Ring Ring* *Ring Ring*

What the fuck it that?

I forcefully open up my eyes and roll over to the left to see my clock shinning 3:01.

Who the fuck is calling me at this time.

*Ring Ring*

I quickly reach over and grab my phone before sliding my thumb over the screen.

"Who the fuck is calling me at 3 in the morning?" I moan out not fully awake.

"Ella, hi. It's Stuart."

My heart freezes at the sound of his voice.

I sit up in my bed and I become more awake and alert. "Stuart? I'm so sor-" Before I can finish he interrupts.
