"And then, the girl playing Ella tripped and twisted her ankle during our first tech rehearsal." I said, as my friend, Rachel and I told Olivia one of our old musical theater stories.

"Yeah, and they had to throw you in for the rest of the show." Rachel laughed.

"And all of the costumes were a bit too small for me, so our costume department had to try to fix it for the show that would start that very next weekend after." I laughed.

"Uhhuh and I remember when you tried on that dress that transforms into the ball gown dress for the first time. Remember, you tried to pull the wire and it wouldn't come undone so you had to do a few extra spins till you could get it to transform." She laughed, leaning on me for support.

Olivia, on the other hand, wasn't laughing.

"Oh yeah! That dress was so heavy too. Or on opening night when the guy playing Topher almost completely dropped me during Ten Minute Ago Reprise." We both laughed even harder as we reminisced.

We were both laughing and leaning against one another thanks to the laughing.

Rachel was basically gasping for air, "And the way he kissed you!" She got out in between gasps.

At this point the two of use were losing it on the couch.

"Ew no! I don't want to think about it!" I was practically wheezing.

Olivia sat there completely unphased. I couldn't help but notice the unamused expression on her face. I tried to distract myself from it, but I couldn't stop glancing over at her.

I could tell she was upset, but I knew I couldn't really andress it in front of Rachel.

"Hey Rachie, what time did you have to leave?" I asked innocently.

"Not for another hour or two at least."

"Do you guys want to watch a movie?" I asked.

"Ooo yes!" Rachel said enthusiastically.

"Liv, Baby? Do you want to watch a movie?" I asked.

"Sure, yeah lets watch a movie." She said.

"Okay cool." I smiled, and turned on the tv. "Any requests?"

"I have one." Rachel said. "Newsies, but the pro-shot."

I gasped out of excitement. "Jeremy Jordan."

"Yes ma'am, Jeremy Jordan." She laughed.

Olivia cracked a small smile. She knew how much I loved him, but not nearly as much as I loved her.

"Say less," I said as I selected the movie and started to play it.

Rachel pulled me onto the reclining part of the couch, and recline it back as the open music started. I pulled a blanket over us as we giggled about Jeremy Jordan playing Jack Kelly.

I motioned for Olivia to move closer to us, but she just rolled her eyes and ignored me.

By the end of the movie I had my legs across Rachel's lap, and we were already reciting lines from the show.

"Oh shoot, I need to get going." She said checking her phone. She gently pushed my legs off of her lap.

"You'll come back to visit soon, right?" I said, pouting at her.

"Of course, I just can't miss this flight back home." She chuckled, pulling me into a long hug.

"Tell your mom I said Hi, and give Charlie an extra ear scratch when you get back." I said as she grabbed her purse, luggage and phone. "And text me when you get on and off the plane, and as soon as you get home."

I walked her up to the door, and gave her one last hug before she left.

"Oh and don't forget to give Charlie a pet for me." Olivia said mockingly.

"Hey, I'll have you know, Charlie is a good boy." I folded my arms, pouting my lip playfully.

"Yeah whatever." She said, irritation in her voice. She turned and walked away from me.

"Baby, are you okay? You seemed off the whole time she way here." I said following her into the kitchen.

"Yeah no I'm just great." She said, starting to do the dishes.

"Why are you lying to me? Don't try to avoid this." I said, sitting down at one of the bar stools at the kitchen island.

"Define lying, and who says I'm avoiding something." She said, not even looking at me.

"First off, I define lying as not telling the truth, I don't know how you define it."

"Going into a horizontal resting position." She said. I could tell she was trying to laugh.

"I like that you think you're being so funny, but doing the dishes to avoid me won't work this time." I sighed. "Or any time. Ever. So Liv, talk to me. What's wrong?"

I heard the sound of the dishes she was hold drop into the sink. "You want to know what's wrong?" She said turning around. "Rachel is what's wrong. You guys are so close. The moment she comes over to visit, you forget about me." She sighs.

"You guys are so close and have so much history, like what am I even doing here? You guys seem so perfect for one another. You know each other so well, and remember all these little things about one another." She stopped, resting her first on the counter top.

"Liv, baby, are you jealous?" I asked.

"No." She said, looking down.

"Baby, you have nothing to be jealous over. Rachel has been my best friend since we were little. Dating her would be like dating an older sister. Yes, she's important to me, but not the way you are to me."

"I didn't say I was jealous." She said, her voice breaking.

"You didn't have to, Liv. I can tell." I gently got off of the stool and walked over to her.

"Come here." I said as I reached her side. She quickly hugged into me. This time I rested my chin on the crown of her head, occasionally kissing it as I rocked us back and forth.

"I'm sorry I got so jealous." She mumbled into my neck.

"Don't be sorry baby. It's okay."

"I love you so much Princess."

I smiled. "I love you too."
