Stella's POV

I wake up and start getting ready for my school.

Last night, I stayed at Zoe's house. We spend the whole night watching 'The Office' and it was me who insisted her and finally she gave in. At first, she tried to make me seem that she was not enjoying but after some time she dropped the act and joined me.

Come on, who can resist this show?

After watching the show for three hours, I crashed on the couch while Zoe was still watching and now as I woke up late, I will be going to school late and probably getting detention after the school if I didn't reach before my teacher. All the thanks go to The Office!

After Zoe's driving, we thankfully reach school on time. Yes! She drives like we are in one of the fast and furious movie.

I walk in the hallway of school with Zoe but something feels strange. I was getting odd glances from almost every person.

I stride towards my locker and as soon as I was going to open someone taps my shoulder. I turn around to find it was the friend of Harry who told me to meet Harry at the parking lot that day.

"Yes?" I say. Why is he here? I mean what does he want?

"You are okay?" He asks in confusion, looking at me the same way a person looks at zombie, leaving me and Zoe both confused.

"Sorry?"

"You met with an accident in the morning, right?" He says. WHAT?!

I quickly turn to Zoe who gives me a look that tells IT-IS-MORE-COMPLICATED-THAN-PHYSICS.

"Well, No. You got the wrong information. I am totally fine." I say.

"You know because of you Harry is right now in hospital." He started raising his voice. What The Hell!

"How and what do you mean because of me?" I say startled back by his behaviour and words.

"You should just stay out of Harry." He says looking at me in disgust.

I am not feeling good and I feel worse to be blamed of something that I even don't know. If he was planning on hurting me then he was surely succeeding.

Don't let him hurt you emotionally. You are strong, Stella. Ask him whatever happened. Gather courage!

I tell myself and when he was about to turn back, I tap his shoulders. "Well you successfully accused me of a crime that I don't know but will you care to tell me?"

He looks at me. I see cogs turning in his head before he answers, "Today in the morning he met an accident but before that he called you many times. I don't know what happened but everyone's suspicion is on you, so is mine."

What?!

They are accusing me just because he called me many times before he met an accident. I need to erase my name from the wrong side and I can only do that if I go to meet Harry.

My heart is thumping loudly. I don't want to be the reason Harry got hurt. My palms are badly sweating and rubbing them against my jeans is not helping.

I ask Harry's friend about all the information about Harry and where is he right now.

I am accompanied by Zoe. We are walking back to the school's gate to go and meet Harry when I hear a very familiar annoying voice calling my name. I turn around to find no one else but Charlotte and her minions.

"So bitch, how do you feel?" Charlotte asks to me.

I was going to open my mouth but quickly shut when Zoe starts to speak. "How do we know how you feel?"

I bite my lip to control my laugh. This is not a time to laugh.

"Shut up pig!" Charlotte says. Her language clearly tells her personality.

"Stella, are my teeth white enough to cause a reflection like a mirror?" Zoe says looking at me, faking a confusing look.

I really love when Zoe gives responses to Charlotte but right now it wasn't the right time. From the corner of my eyes, I can see Charlotte fuming red.

"Uh...Zoe, I think we should leave now." I say dragging Zoe out of the school.

I sigh once we are out of the sights of people.

I and Zoe walk to Zoe's car. We take our seat and Zoe was about to start the ignition when Harry's same friend calls out my name.

I come out of the car. He was now breathing heavily maybe because of running but why is he finding me?

"I forgot to tell you that-" He says and I nod telling him to continue.

"- Before calling you, he got a call from someone who told him that you met an accident." He tells and that's when realization hits me hard.

It means that...

... Zoe did that call?
