don't blame me

vii, because i liked a boy.

act one, chapter seven. because i liked a boy.

it had been three days since tommy and olive had spoken face to face. they'd texted occasionally, and maybe even wave to each other when caught outside. they weren't mad at each other — but busy.

at least that's what olive liked to think.

catherine sent dirty looks often to olive, and the girl was honestly confused why. she had not done anything, but maybe she was delusional and imagining everything.

olive really hoped that was the case.

because every day she found herself gaining more feelings for tommy, and maybe admittance was a good thing.

olive did not receive a response. and that's perfectly okay, but tommy was not acting as himself — and she couldn't help but wonder "was that catherine texting on his phone?"

ah whatever — he's probably sleepy, he streamed 'till 4:00 am last night.
