i walk into the cafeteria, seeing olivia, madison, conan, iris and tate sitting at a table. i give conan and tate a smile as they look at me. i glance at olivia, seeing her occupied by iris' phone. i look away, taking a seat beside madison.

our relationship was a little complicated- olivia and i's. we dated for a little more than a year, olivia calling it quits almost two weeks ago. it was kind of mutual, i guess. it didn't really work after a few months of trying. it's fine, though. we were still good friends, probably because we had the same friend group before we dated. i had a lot of other friends, but didn't want to leave them.

obviously it was awkward at the start. it's less awkward, but we all try to ignore it. i felt bad. i talk to olivia less than everyone else, but i think that's for the better. i'm not sure how i'm gonna get over her when i see her almost every day. i still love her so much. honestly, i still couldn't believe that olivia broke up with me. she seemed like she loved me just as much.

i look at olivia as she hands back conan's phone, and she looks up at me. my heart still skips a beat.

she gives me a small smile, and i give her one back, before i look away.

the bell rings, and we all start to head to class. "you're not in our art class," madison says, looking at me. "oh shit," i realize i was just following madison and iris when i had music, "see you!"

i jog and catch up to olivia walking with conan. she looks at me with a small smile, "hey." "hey," i respond, "sorry. went the wrong way." "i was wondering where you went," she gives a soft chuckle. "accidentally started walking with madison and iris," i explain. "thought you were sick of me," she looks at me with a smile. "you wish," i smile back.

olivia sits in her seat, and i sit beside her, conan beside me. the lesson goes by fairly slow, and i glance over at olivia. i guess she was bored too.

her arm was laid on the table, head on her arm and facing me as she slept. i try not to keep my eyes on her for too long.

the bell rings, and olivia sighs, sitting up slowly. she looks at me, and i look at her. she smiles, "anything important?" "the most important stuff," i lie. "like what?" she asks, "why didn't you wake me up?" "like... the fact that you still poke the inside of your cheek with your tongue when you sleep," i smile, tapping olivia's nose as i stand up.

olivia chuckles as she packs her stuff into her bag, "that's not important." it's important to me. "well, then there's nothing that important this lesson," i choose my other response. "good," olivia stands up, putting her bag on her shoulders, "what're you doing today?" i sigh dramatically as olivia and i start to walk out of class, "just gonna go hook up with as many girls as i can."

olivia laughs, "oh, we've broken up for two weeks and you're already making moves on other girls?" "exactly," i smile, "gotta get a move on, you know? there's others in line after you." "you're so annoying," olivia giggles, pushing me to the side gently. "thank you," i say, "but i've got training." "now?" she asks. "yeah," i say, "how about you?" "i'm gonna shop for a bit while i wait for my mom to pick me up," olivia says. "get your license, idiot," i chuckle. "shut up," olivia laughs.

olivia and i walk to my car, and i open the trunk. i take out my duffel bag, looking at olivia. "shopping by yourself," i ask. "yep," olivia sighs, "maybe someone will notice and shop with me, and we can hit it off." "yeah?" i look at her, smiling as i press the button to close the trunk. "yeah," olivia smiles, "then we'll have lunch, they'll ask me out to a fancy restaurant..." i start to imagine it happening. obviously not the exact scenario, but the dates olivia would have with someone else.

i cut olivia off as she gets to the point where her and this hypothetical person were gonna get married. "it's actually gonna be me, so," i decide to take the less serious route. "oh, is it?" she raises her eyebrows. "yeah," i grin, "so don't be surprised when you see me." "i won't, then," olivia smiles.
