The Exception

39

Olivia's POV:

"Hey Ethan!" I said walking into the cafe.

"Oh hey Liv, how are you?!"

Don't say anything about the almost kiss, don't say anything!

"I'm good, tired, but good!"

"Yeah, that party was wild!"

"You can say that again!"

"I'm going to order some milkshakes, what do you want?!"

"Hmm, oreos?!"

"Ok!"

I know that it's wrong of me to be hanging out with Ethan, especially because I am ignoring Josh but maybe it's for the best!

Joshua's POV:

I went to Matt's place. Normally, I find Matt as easy to talk to about my problems so hopefully, he'll be able to help me!

"Hey dude!" Matt says opening the door.

"Hey bud, hey Brooklynn!" I said smiling at the girl.

Brooklynn and Matt have been dating for a few months now. She's actually pretty sweet and she came to Utah to visit!

"Hey, come in Josh, make yourself comfortable!" Brooklynn says before sitting down on the sofa.

"What's wrong, you seem down?"

"Do you know why Olivia is ignoring me?"

I looked at Matt and Brooklynn, they both looked as though they knew something but they didn't want to tell me!

"Uh guys!"

"Sorry, what was the question?"

Great, is everyone ignoring me today!

"I said, do you know why Olivia is ignoring me?"

"Ok, it may or may not have something to do with the party!"

"Ok, so, what did I do?!"

"You got drunk Josh and it was so funny and..."

"BROOKLYNN!" Matt gave her a look as if it was to stop talking.

"Wait, how did I get drunk? I don't drink!"

"I may have switched the squash!"

"MATT, THE POOR KID, I SWEAR TO GOD!"

"What, it's a party, it has got to have alcohol!"

"No, you are crossing the line!"

"Look, I don't know what this has to do with Liv but thank you, I'm glad you think that drunk Josh was entertaining!" I rolled my eyes at Matt before realising something.

I need to go apologise to Olivia!
