Gabriel walks to Athena who's studying at the moment. He sat down on the couch beside her table. And sighs. Athena rolled her eyes, he sighs again. She shook her head ignoring him. He squinted his eyes looking at her then sighs loudly. Athena puts down her pen and looked at him. "Is there something on your mind?" She asked.
He sat properly and faces her. "I have a problem. And you're the only person i wanted to talk about it. Hear me out i know you're still mad, but i really need my best friend right now"
Athena sighs, moves her chair and sit facing him. "What happened? If this is about Miss Harper, i'm walking out"
He shook his head. "I kissed another girl."
Athena raised her eyebrows.
"I kissed Olivia"
She coughs. "Olivia? Carrington?" Then chuckles. "You said nothing is gonna change, we wont let this city change us. But you having a relationship with our teacher then kissing the most popular and richest girl in the city.. It's like i don't even know you anymore"
"Could you just.. just listen to me? I need my best friend, a friend that will listen to me. Not a friend who will judge me" He laughs bitterly. "You know what, i tried everything to make it up to you. I said i'm sorry a million times. But you kept on ignoring me, we never had a fight like this before. We have a misunderstanding, we fix it by an hour or a couple minutes. Maybe i am not the one who changed Athena, maybe its you. Again, i am sorry if i made a decision that you don't like. If you wanna talk to me, just talk to me. I'm tired of hearing you judging me every single day since i dated someone. Can you just be happy for me? I finally found someone i really liked. You know i'd never do this to you. I fully supported you into liking Gina. Why can't you do the same for me" Then he left Athena speechless.

Olivia sat down on their dining table. "How was your date?" Harrison asked. She hum and nodded. "It was good."
"Who was the guy?" He asked. Olivia looks at him. "Just a guy at school. It's for charity Dad don't worry"
"I know but i heard something else. Is that for charity also?" He said then drinks his tea. She looks at Kyro and Cam looking straight ahead then she glares at them. "Don't look at them like that. I told them to report everything to me. It was their job."
She looked back at Harrison. "It was just one kiss. Okay. And i don't even like him. He's like.. ugh." Her Dad chuckles. "He is very smart, i can see a great future for him"
Olivia looks at her Dad with confusion. "How can you tell?" She asked. Harrison chuckles and sips his tea again. Olivia looks at Kyro and Cam again. "You've gotta be kidding me. You investigated him?" She chuckled.
"I was just trying to protect you." Harrison said.
"Dad i'm not a 12 year old girl anymore. I don't even want them to be with me everytime i go out, it feels so weird having a posse of guys in suits following me everywhere, hiding every tree, listening to my dates. It's like nothing is private."
Harrison looks at her and stood up. He walks closer to her and stood beside her. "I know. I'm sorry if you feel like you don't have any privacy anymore."
She looks up to him. "So can you tell them" She glares at them. "To not follow me anymore?" And looks at her Dad. Harrison looks at Kyro and Cam. "Kyro will still follow you but not too close and Cam can stay in the car with your driver. How about that?"
Olivia sighs. "Fine. That's better than two of them following me."
He kisses her head and left. "I'm glad we had this talk. I'll see you tonight sweetie. Have fun at school"
She looks back to see if her Dad's still there. When Harrison closes the door. She stood up and faces Kyro and Cam. "Who told?" She asked them. They both gulped and pointed each other. She squinted her eyes at them. "Let's go" She walks out and they followed her.
"Next time any one of you snitch on me, you will regret it." Olivia said when Kyro opens the car door for her. Then closes.
"I told you not to tell" Kyro whispered at Cam. "It was our job stupid" Cam said

At school. Alison saw Gabriel walking around alone while looking at his phone. She walks faster to walk with him. "You didn't come last night" Gabriel looks at her. "Shit. Sorry, i totally forgot."
She smiles at the students they are passing. "Okay."
"I'll come later. Is that alright?" He asked. She nodded and walks faster than him.
When Gabriel enters the room, he saw Olivia from afar, talking to her friends. He clears his throat and looks away. Madison saw Gabriel walks in and looks at Olivia. "I think you forgot to tell us what happened to your date?" Peyton looks at Madison then Olivia. "Oh yeah. How was it?"
Olivia glances at Gabriel's direction. "Eh? It was decent. How about yours and Matthew?"
"It was the worst. He keeps on annoying me about me bidding on him." Peyton said and they laughed. "Wait where's Iris?" Olivia asked. Then Iris walks in, after a few seconds, Lucas walks in. The three of them raised their eyebrows. And stared at her until she sat down.
"I guess we have a winner who had the best date" Peyton said. Iris chuckles softly. "He was so sweet. He is the person i expected him to be." She smiles then glances at Lucas' direction talking to Gabriel.
"Slut" Olivia jokes then chuckles. "Shut uppp. How was yours?" Iris asked Olivia. She shrugs. "It was okay."
"That's so boring. That's why i don't believe you" Madison said. "Me too. Liv doesn't do borings. So tell us the truth" Peyton said. Olivia glances at Gabriel then Gabriel must have senses it and glances at her. Then they both looks away. "That's the truth. Nothing exciting happened." She said.

On the gym, Daniel walks in. He walks on Olivia's side court. "Trouble in coming" Iris whispers. Madison and Peyton saw him and sighs. Olivia rolled her eyes and faces him when he reaches them. "So i was just wondering why didn't you bid on me babe?" He puts his arms on Olivia's shoulder. Then she removes it. "Wasn't the answer so obvious?" She said then He laughs. "And yet you bid on the new guy? To make me jealous or to pissed my sister?"
"Oh come on Daniel" Madison said rolling her eyes.
Olivia moves her face closer to his. And puts her hands on his cheeks. He stared at her lips then grins. "You might wanna take a mint" she taps his cheeks and then walks out. Peyton, Madison and Iris laughs and follows her. Daniel clenched his fist and kick the ball near his feet. Other students looks at his direction. "What?!" He yelled and walks away.
