(Telana and Stas station themselves at Telana's for a while, Stas and Zac get more involved than just a friendship, and Zac has yet to discover Stas's relationship)
Telana- You can't lead him on! I can't believe he doesn't know! You're so inconsiderate of others! *turns her back on Stas and attempts to walk away but gets held back*
Stas- *turns Telana around* If I hear you go around snitching that I have a boyfriend and a guy friend, you're dead. I swear to god Telana, you're starting things that aren't even real.
Telana- *throws Stas's hand off of her* Not real?? Bitch he stayed the night with you! You all been up til 3 for fucking 4 nights straight! When is enough enough Stas? I mean, if you're lying to him...I can only imagine the lies I'm being put through... Are you really the girl we think you are? Anastasia? If that IS your real name.. How can you do this to such a helpless young soul. You know the pain he's been through, and this is 10 times worse. You're a big fat lie.
Zac- *sneaks up to Stas's room in Telana's house with a bunch of roses ready to surprise Stas then stops and listens*
Stas- *raises her voice to talk through her tears* If you wanna go, go. Zac has to accept the fact that I'm not single and I'm not interested in being with him either! He's a friend! He knows I would never date him. He's just a kid..
Zac- *swallows his need to burst into tears and keeps listening gripping the roses tighter in his hands*
Telana- this isn't about me. This is about you. This is about your silly little love games you wanna play with everyone on the block. Stas, ZAC HAS A FRAGILE HEART. You need to realize that..I don't think you do. You treat Zac so great, you go to dinner with him, lay with him, you even hug him and love on him. Once Zac sees you're in a relationship...all his trust will be gone..
Zac- *drops the flowers in shock and turns to go back outside and leave* Forget it... *slams the car door and speeds home*
Telana- *hears the noise and opens the door to see the roses on the ground* Looks like he already has...*gulps in disbelief and picks up the card on the roses*
Stas- *standing in her room then drops to her knees staring directly at the roses that lay on the ground* oh my god... *hears Telana's voice saying "gone..." echoing in her ear*
Telana- *picks up the roses and examines them then hands them to Stas* There's 12. 11 real and 1 fake. "My love for you is like this rose, it will never die" wow... *tosses the roses and the card in front of Stas then goes to her room and shuts the door*
Stas- *looks down at the card and rereads it over and over to keep the thought of Zac loving her in her mind*
(Back at Zac's house)
Zac- *storms inside trying to hold back his tears but let's them fall anyways* How could she. After all I've done!! *races to his room and slams the door* All this world is is a big lie.
CHAPTER 9: Make It Sound Good
Stas: Telana why...
Telana: *laying next to Stas going through a guy's pictures on Twitter* why what?
Stas: *looks at Telana and smacks her phone out of her hand* Why do bad things always happen to me??
Telana: *smacks Stas on the arm and grabs her phone* Well maybe if you were honest and I don't know... NICE...we wouldn't have this conversation so often.
Stas: But Zac is so graceful. Everything he does is perfect and I just... Why can't my life be that way?
Telana: *texts Zac to come over because Stas isn't there* Stas I don't know, what do I look like? A philosopher? *smirks to herself*
