You Drive Me Crazy | L.H

Chapter 20: Happy New Year

Olivia pov

I had told the group what happened and the boys were all annoyed and the girls were looking after me, "I can't believe she would do something like that..." Claire says, hugging me.

"I can... she is a bitch at school always at the top of the food change and spreading a rumour about people, I don't really know what Luke saw in her" Lucy says from the other side of me.

I chuckle slightly, "see this is while I like you!" I smile, "the annoying thing was she just came from nowhere. She doesn't know me; she just had already made her mind up, with what I was like without really talking to me." I sigh fiddling with my sleeves.

Luke finally comes back from outside, he had been talking to her the whole time I was getting changed and stuff which was about 15 minutes, "hey, Liv... wanna chat...?" I nodded getting up from the couch and following him out to the quiet part of the hallway.

"Is she gone?... you were talking to her for a long time..." I say looking down and rubbing the side of my arm.

"Yeah, I made sure she got a taxi home and told her it was completely out of line and that she needs to leave and not talk to me or Olivia again," he said leaning on the opposite wall.

I put a hand through my damp hair, "did she say why she did it..." I say still not looking up at him.

"She just kept saying you were jealous... but I think she just got jealous when she found out that we kissed..."

"Ahh... I see," I say still looking down finding the carpet fascinating right now, "um did you hear what she said to me... I can't get it out of my head," I say leaning on the wall behind me.

"Yeah I did hear... you shouldn't fixate on it...I know I don't believe it. I think you're the most amazing person, heck I didn't even like her..." he chuckles putting a hand through his hair.

"Why did you invite her in the first place then..."

"Well, we went on a double date with Lucy and Calum and Calum invited both of them before I could stop him... I didn't have the heart to turn her down, she seemed so excited," he sighs, "I wish I didn't even meet her in the first place but I thought you were with that guy from England and I hadn't heard anything from your for 2 weeks, and Calum was begging me to come and I couldn't really tell him that was the reason I was all moody..." he rambles getting all flustered and cute.

I smirk slightly, "you were jealous of me and Troye?" I chuckle looking up at him.

"Yes... how was I meant to know he was gay... you seemed to be spending all your time with him and you haven't talked to me the whole time you were away..." he says pushing my arm lightly. 

I chuckle, "I'm sorry... I had this whole speech planned for when I got back but then Mikey told me you had a date so I decided not to bother... and I didn't want to bother you by messaging you in the middle of the night..." I smiled up at him.

"Ohh... I didn't realise that..." he says looking back at me, "you shouldn't be sorry tho, I do understand why... I just didn't realise that was why you hadn't messaged me... I thought you decided you didn't like me or something..."

"Hemmings shut up," I chuckle, stopping him from talking, I can hear everyone counting down to midnight in the main room.

"Ten"

"But I wanna explain myself," he says, does he not hear them counting down?

"Nine"

"Hemmings," I say, stepping towards him in an attempt to calm him down.
