"I see through those silent lies of yours, Liv."

"What's wrong?" I ask Olivia, worrying right away when there's a frown on her face while she's on her phone.
"Classes for next semester were posted finally." I narrow my eyes at her, sitting next to her on my bed.
"What? Do you have gym first block?" She laughs, shaking her head.
"No. I already have my credit for gym, thank god. But I don't have art at all next semester. My last semester of high school." I frown, knowing how much she loves art because of Mrs. Scarlet. She was a really nice teacher when I had her sophomore year.
"It'll be okay. You can still see her after school or something." I kiss her cheek, pulling her close to me.
"I have a free period this semester though," she says so happily and I already have ideas on what she'll use it for. Reading, not studying like it's suggested.
I pull my phone out to check my new schedule for next semester, grinning as a free period pops up next. My whole schedule is just French, biology, free period after lunch, and math. I'm thankful as I see Olivia's schedule-finances, Spanish, free period also after lunch, and chemistry. At least we have one class period together. Plus, our schedules are pretty easy, as we've got all our credits by now when it's the last semester of high school.
"Thank god we have that free period together at least!" Although I wish we had every class together. I watch a text from Divine popping up, looking away for their privacy, but wondering when a smile takes over her face. "Me and Divine have finances and chemistry together! We've not had any classes together since like freshmen year."
I smile, happy for them, just as everyone texts our group chat, sharing schedules and everything. We're texting as if we're not all about to be hanging out together in an hour, if that.
I watch with a smile as Olivia calls Divine, talking about the new schedules and how they'll go. She's been so much more relaxed since she got her retake of her SAT done, even if she keeps not believing she did good, and since her dad was finally put into prison. Finally, though 6 years too late.
That day last week-Thursday-at the courthouse, was great because of him finally being put into prison. It was stressful, I could tell with how Olivia acted, at first, but everything ended the way it should've and even better.
"Okay, I'll see you in a bit." I smile just as Olivia smiles at me, coming over to sit back down next to me again.
"We've got to get going in a minute." We're all going to hang out at the boring mall, where we should've just gone right after school but didn't for some reason.
"I know." But she leans in to kiss me anyways, stopping me from getting my shoes. It's okay, though.
"Liv, baby." We kiss a lot, but never have kissed like this. Especially when she moves to straddle my lap, causing her to, what I assume, is accidentally grind her hips on mine when she gasps and practically tosses herself off of me, looking more flushed than ever just like me.
