Chapter 127 - How Did You Do It? (2/2)
Scott, who was still standing in his spot, felt his soul leaving his body when he saw Stella kissing Adam.
”Why are you still standing?” Stella asked Scott, not moving her eyes from Adam's face. ”Have a seat.” She continued.
Scott furrowed his brows as he looked at her back. Before he could open his mouth to say something, Adam spoke up.
”Have a seat Mr. Trevor.” Adam added, not bothering to look at him.
When Scott was settled in his seat once again, Stella turned around and sat down on Adam's lap.
Adam wrapped his arms around her waist immediately, he wouldn't like it if she slipped from his lap.
”How do we know each other? Tell him.” Stella asked Scott as she leaned against Adam's sturdy chest.
Scott looked at the duo before him, still confused about what was actually happening.
”Start talking.” Stella added, giving him a frustrated look.
Scott furrowed his eyebrows, but replied nonetheless. ”She got into my high school on a full scholarship. I was her senior, a year ahead of her. We were paired up for a team to represent our school at a quiz competition. That's how we got to know each other.”
Stella interrupted him. ”And then we were asked to represent the school at every single competition. Sometimes it was just the two of us, at others, there were other students as well. But over time, we became close, inseparable you could say. He was the only friend I had at that hell.”
”He helped me getting better after my parents died. He helped me in running away from my so called family. He was always there for me.” Stella continued as her lips curled up in a soft smile.
She turned to face Adam. ” He was the only family I had at that time. He was my best friend Adam, still is.”
”So, I want you to meet Scott Trevor, my best friend.” Stella cupped his cheeks.
”And you boy, meet Adam Levinson, my boyfriend.” She turned her face towards Scott and continued with a cheeky smile.
”What!!!!” Scott asked her, not believing his ears. His jaw was almost touching the floor.
”Yes, yes. You heard it right. The great Adam Levinson is my boyfriend.” Stella added, her chin slightly raised up in the air.
Adam gazed at her face which was brimming with happiness. It was the first time that she had called him as her boyfriend, and that too before somebody else.
”How did you do it?” Scott asked her, still not believing the fact that his high school best friend, who hated boys other than him, could actually manage to bag such a big fish. 'Damn girl.'
”She didn't need to do anything except for being herself.” It was Adam who replied to him.
