What if Stella and Charlie knew each other before Lemonade mouth? What if they were best friends? And what if Charlie had to move? Would they ever see each other again?

5 years before- (Charlie and Stella were both nine)

Charlie P.O.V

"What!" I screamed. If you're wondering why I'm screaming I'll tell you. For about six months now my dad has been trying to find a job, but kept failing miserably. About two months ago my dad finally found a job. It wasn't the best job but it was decent. Everything seem like it was going great! Until now, and that's where I am now. "How could we be moving?" "I thought dad found a good enough job!" "Yes Charlie, but your father is getting transferred to Rhode Island." My mother explained. "But what about my school, my friends?" I wined. "You'll meet tons of new friends there!" mom tried to reason with me, but I didn't want to hear any of it! "But- "No buts Charlie!" my mother interrupted. "We are leaving in a week and that is final." She finished saying as she walked away. "Yeah lil' bro, you'll meet new people over there!" my brother said trying to cheer me up. Even though I knew it was killing him more than me since he had to leave his one year girlfriend behind. I sighed sadly. "But what about Stella?" I whispered.

Monday morning (following day)

Ugh! I can't believe we're moving! Why did they have to transfer my dad to Rhode Island? Come on! I mean seriously, of all places it had to be Rhode Island! That's like halfway across the country! I think. No yeah, I'm pretty sure it is. I sighed. How am I supposed to tell Stella this? She'll probably get mad at me and would never want to speak to me again! Okay, so maybe I was being overly dramatic, but can you blame me? I'm freaking out here! Stella, she is my bestest friend ever! We've been best friends since first grade when those three 3rd graders tried to beat me up for what ever reason and Stella saved my butt. She may be a girl, but she sure knows how to kick butt! Man, I'm gonna miss her.

"Charlie! Time for school, lets go!" my mom calls out to me from downstairs. I got off my bed and sighed sadly. "Coming!" I replied. I grabbed my backpack off the floor and moped all the way down the stairs. "Oh come on honey, stop being so mopey. You'll be fine!" my mom said trying to cheer me up. Even though she was trying to act all fine and cheery I knew she was very sad inside. I roll my eyes and sigh for like the hundredth time this morning "Whatever." I said as I got in the car.

Recess-

I covered my eyes from the blazing, summer, sun. Even from under this tree I still see the bright sun. I've been trying to avoid Stella all day, not sure why because that's probably the stupidest idea ever! Considering the fact that I'm probably- no, NEVER gonna see her again! It's just, I don't know, I just can't face her right now. I'm pretty sure if I try to talk to her I'll probably be stuttering at every other word. "Hey! Delgado!" shouted a slightly squeaky voice. 'Uh oh!' the only time she uses my last name like that is when she is mad! At me! I gulped. 'Just act cool Charlie, relax' I try telling myself. 'I can do this, I can- oh who am I kidding! I'm freaking out here!' "H-hey S-stell!" I say shakily. Dang it! I just said two words and I'm already stuttering. "Don't 'hey Stell' me! You've been avoiding me! Haven't you?" she spat out as she sits next to me and punches me right on the arm. I wince. "Ouch! What the heck was that for?" I yelled while rubbing my now sore arm. Thank you Stella! She just glares at me and says "You deserved it! You've been avoiding me all day!" "Puh, Psh! I haven't been avoiding you! What makes you think that?" I ask nervously while looking around trying not to look at her. "Oh well lets see, you wouldn't talk to me during lunch today and when we were coloring in class you didn't even say hi or even look at me for that matter! And we were sitting at the same table! If that's not avoiding someone then I don't know what is! And-'she kept on ranting on and on until I finally said "Alright, alright! Geez, listen I'm sorry I was avoiding you. It's just that I have something to tell you and I don't exactly know how to say it."

I sighed and looked down at my knees realizing that it was much easier looking down than at her. "Charlie." She began, breaking the silence. "You know you can tell me anything, right? I mean we are best friends." Still looking down I sighed. Guess it's now or never. "I'm moving." I say after a slight pause. I say it so low that I couldn't even hear myself. "What?" she asks shocked. But of course she heard me! "You're moving! How could you be moving?" When are you leaving?" she asked sadly. I finally look up at her beautiful brown eyes and say "I'm moving in a week. I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner. It's just that, I was scared of how you were going to react!" I looked down again. Suddenly I feel something soft brush my cheek. I gasped, she kissed me! My head immediately shoots up just in time to see her blush ever so cute. I feel my own cheeks burn. "I'm going to miss you." She says softly but has a small smile on her face. I see her eyes glisten with tears but she doesn't dare let them fall, she's to tough to cry. At least that was what she told me. 'Big girls don't cry' was what she told me. I told her though 'Even the biggest girls have to cry sometimes.' "I'll miss you too." I say softly once I regain my voice. I pull her in for a tight hug. "You'll always be my best friend." I whisper.
