Summary: Stella does something that changes her life. What is worse is her reaction. How will the band handle it? How will Ray handle it? What is it? Will Stella ever return?
Chapter One: Stella's Mistake
Stella's POV
Oh My God! This did not just happen. No. I will not believe it. Can't move. Frozen. Stuck.
Yesterday After Madison Square Concert
Charlie says, "Way to go Yamada!"
"Me? I just started the band." I say, "It was really Olivia who made us better."
Olivia asks, "Me?"
Wen says, "Yeah! Without you we would be utterly lost."
Olivia says, "No way. I was hesitant to even join. I am going back to the hotel room. Anybody joining me?"
Wen, Mo, and Scott follow her. Charlie says, "I am going to look around New York. It's not like we're here every day."
"Okay. I am going into the dressing room. See you later." I say.
I head to our dressing room and take a shower. I here the door close and stop the water. I wrap my towel around me and head to the main part of the dressing room.
A man in all black has a gun pointed to my head. He pushes the barrel to my forehead and says, "Lie down Stella Yamada." I stand still. He says, "Move or die Yamada!"
Present Day
Let's just say I did what I said and it wasn't pretty. He took something very precious to me. I will never forgive myself. I shouldn't have left the door unlocked. Stupid me. I get up and I soak myself in a bubble bath. I have to get him off of me. The scent of him. Not him actually. He left. Probably after he was done using me.
When I am done I walk to our hotel room. I knock on the door and Olivia opens it. She says, "Stella! Where were you! We were missing you."
"Trust me. You don't want to know and I don't want to explain it." I say.
Olivia says, "Okay. We leave in a week. We have a meet-and-greet tomorrow, another concert Tuesday and Thursday, a Lemonade Mouth Meeting on Wednesday and we leave Friday. Plus interview scattered here and there. Oh and a Movie Premiere tonight for The Descendants."
"I just want to sleep off my night. I also need to think. Go ahead." I say.
Olivia says disappointed, "Okay. Go on there. I will text you at 1:00 so you can get ready for our interview on the Talk. We will be videotaping it so be ready."
I fall asleep fighting the nightmares.
Olivia: Hey Stella. We are going to be there in ten minutes. Get ready. We will be on the Talk soon. Wear your Question Authority Tee-Shirt and grab a Mel. We need to be Lemonade Mouth. Hope you feel better.?
Me: Okay. Tell the band to get ready and grab a Mel.?
Olivia: Will do.?
I get in my signature Question Authority Tee and black skinny jeans. I put on a little eyeliner, mascara, and red lipstick. I start to curl my hair when the band walks in.
Mo says, "Whoa! Stella has a curling iron."
Scott asks, "Who are you and what have you done to our hardcore Stella Yamada."
"It's still me. I haven't changed." I say. Don't give me that look. What was I supposed to say. Oh. I was raped last night and that is why I am like this because I need a major reality check and I need to change my image just until I know if I'm pregnant or not.
What if I'm pregnant?
It was your first time Stella. Nothing happens on you first time.
What if? No. Stop thinking like that Stella. We will deal with this later. I just need to breath. And finish my hair.
I finish my hair and makeup and Olivia says, "Come on! They are recording us!"
I walk in and sit on the huge bed and look at the camera.
I hate interviews. So boring! I go to our tour bus and grab my guitar. I set up the camera and start singing She's So Gone. I finally get the lyrics
Insecure
In her skin
Like a puppet, a girl on a string
Broke away
Learned to fly
If you want her back, gotta let her shine
So, it looks like the joke's on you
'Cuz the girl that you thought you knew
She's so gone
That's so over now
She's so gone
You won't find her around
You can look but you won't see
The girl I used to be
'Cuz she, she's so gone
Here I am
This is me
And I'm stronger than you ever thought I'd be
Are you shocked?
Are you mad?
That your missin' out on who I really am
Now it looks like the joke's on you
'Cuz the girl that you thought you knew
She's so gone
That's so over now
She's so gone
You won't find her around
You can look but you won't see
The girl I used to be
'Cuz she, she's so gone
Away, like history,
She's so gone,
Baby this is me... Yeah...
She's so gone
That's so over now
She's so gone
You won't find her around
You can look but you won't see
The girl I used to be
'Cuz she, she's so gone
She's so gone
That's so over now
She's so gone
You won't find her around
You can look but you won't see
The girl I used to be
'Cuz she, she's so gone
She's so gone, she's so gone...
So gone, she's so gone... Gone, gone, gone.
I start getting messages from our group chat room.
Charlie: Hey. Where R U? You left right after the interview.
Scott: Stell. Are you still there?
Wen: Please come back.
Mo: Me and Olivia wanted to do your makeup for the premiere of The Descendants. ? ゚メナ? ゚ムラ?
Olivia: You don't have to come if you don't want to. ?
Scott: Are you avoiding us?
Charlie: What's wrong?
Wen: Wanna trash a store?
Olivia: You are not going to trash a store!
Wen: Okay.
Charlie: Olivia has you wrapped around my fingertips.
Scott: Man. You're whipped.
Wen: Am not!
Scott and Charlie: Am Too!
Mo: I wonder where Stella is?
Olivia: Someone posted another video on OUR Vevo.
Me: That would be me.
Mo: Did anyone else notice she was holding back tears?
Olivia: Yeah.
Scott, Charlie, and Wen: She was?
Mo: Yeah. Look at her eyes.
Wen: Wow.
Olivia: Something is wrong.
Charlie: Why do you say that?
Olivia: Well. First of off she didn't go back to the hotel room last night, she changed her attitude, she put on makeup and curled her hair, she posted a video where she had tears, and she isn't replying to our texts.
Me: I'm fine. I really am.
And that is when the texts stopped. I get into one of the tour buses beds and try fall asleep.
