facts about the seven station of the cross or way of the cross

We all have been seeing inside the catholic churches , painted in its wall  or there is a picture frame showing JesusChrist carrying that cross and stopping once in while seven times .

I just want to be biblical about it because I could not find any verse in the bible as this event is being narrated by MATTHEW, MARK and LUKE  in their individual writings. 

It was a certain SIMON  who carried that cross all throughout as mentioned in MATTHEW CHAPTER 27, verse 32,  """ as they went out , they came upon a man named SIMON , they compelled this man to carry his cross."""
While in that process of going to the place where he will be hanged  ( called GOLGOTA)  there was no mention that Jesus stopped for seven times or anytime for that matter, if ever that was happened , what book it is, who is the author who personally saw that Jesus had to stop for a while.

Let us create a story based on the bible only.
