Get Rid Of Him

Stella finally looked at him with her teary eyes and jumped from her chair and hugged him. She broke down in tears as she wrapped her arms around his neck.

"Shhh! Little one." Scott rubbed her back, trying to calm her down. He looked at Adam with confusion written on his face as he continued to rub her back.

"What happened girl? Talk to me." Scott murmured softly, but didn't get a reply back.

Stella continued crying hysterically, hugging him tightly.

Adam looked at the scene before him and felt a burning sensation spreading through his chest. It wasn't jealousy, but rather heartache. It was the first time he was seeing her cry that badly. Seeing her like that, shattered his heart. All he wanted to do was to hold her in his arms. But he knew it wasn't his place to do so at the moment. So, he just sat there quietly, looking at her back which was moving up and down as she continued crying.
