we drove to my house and got out of the car, me opening the car door for her obviously. "thank you m'lady" olivia says with a smile. "your welcome, darling." i say back very confidently, as if i'm not head over heels for the girl. i open the back and grab our backpacks, handing hers to her.we walk up to my house and walk in. i take my backpack off setting it on the ground mentally reminding myself to remember to grab it in the morning. olivia calls her mom to tell her she's staying over and her mom says it's fine. she walks over to me after ending the call. "hey alexis, is it okay if we watch something before bed."
"of course we can, what did you want to watch?" "twlight?" she says with a pout on her face, as if i was gonna say no. "of course we can" i say gently, trying to comfort her a bit, after her hurtful breakup.
we put the movie on, i grabbed some popcorn to cheer up olivia some more. it seemed like it helped but i know she was hurting.
*Olivia pov* (finally)
i tried to put my best act for alexis, to seem like i was okay but it replayed in my head over and over again.
*flashback* (still olivia's pov)
we walk into the restaurant that Jack set up for our three month anniversary. i couldn't believe it. Jack has been the best these three months but he has been a little distant.
we sit down, him not pulling the chair out for me as usual. he never really had manners like alexis does, she always opens doors or pulls chairs out for me. but this isn't about her, she's my best friend.
anyway, we order and his phone buzzes. he pulls it out of his pocket and starts to smile. i can hear him laugh as he types. "hey, who are you talking to?" i ask as my eyebrows furrow "oh, uh it's no one." 'mhm, okay sure.' i say in my head as i slightly nodded.
a few minutes later and he's still not off his phone and i'm just sitting in silence watching his cheeks turn red and his smile grows bigger and bigger with each text. "hey, babe, could you like get off your phone for a second." i ask in a polite tone but right know i was pretty pissed.
"hold on, it's important." he says looking at me, his smile fading, but when he looks back at his phone his smile glows again. "is it more important than our anniversary?" i reply in a cold tone.
"wha- what, olivia you sound stupid right now, i'm just texting a friend." "yeah sure a 'friend'" i say with air quotes. "olivia do you not believe me?" he says in a very upset tone "i mean not really, a friend wouldn't get you smiling like that." i say coldly.
"so you think i'm cheating on you then huh." "bu- but i never" he cuts me off "cut the shit, you think i'm cheating on you with some other girl, and if i'm being honest i don't want a girlfriend that doesn't believe or trust me." he says sternly "but, jack no that not what i meant, i'm sorry please forgive me." i say as i feel tears start to form.
"olivia, i think we should see other people, i can't have someone who doesn't trust me." he says walking out the door of the restaurant. i quickly right a note saying that we had to leave and left a tip, feeling sorry for waisting the chefs time and head to the bathroom.
i call alexis and ask her to come pick me and she responds immediately telling me she's on her way. i cry in the stall, letting all the tears flow out of my eyes, when there's a knock on the stall. "olivia, it's me, okay?"
she says and i open the stall practically jumping into her arms as she hugs me tight. she starts rubbing my back and comforting me."it's okay livie, i'm here, you're safe" she says in the sweetest tone "ca- can you ta- take me to the car please." i say, my tears still running down my face.
"of course, come on, she says putting her arm around my waist, which causes my heart to beat faster. i don't know why i reacted that way, maybe i'm just stressed, but anyway she takes me outside to the car.
*end flashback*
"hey, hey olivia" i hear someone say shaking me out of my thoughts. it was alexis and she had a confused expression on her face. "are you okay?" she asks me. "yeah, yeah i am sorry, got lost in my thoughts."
"okay, well i'm gonna go to bed" she says grabbing a pillow and blanket. "where are you going?" i ask confused "i'm sleeping on the couch?" "uh no your not i need your comfort."
i say grabbing her wrist. "okay, only cause you want me to." she says rolling her eyes. i lay in her arms. alexis always brought me comfort. no matter the situation she always made sure i was okay. i feel my eyelids become heavy as i drift off into sleep in the comfort of my best friends arms.
i decided to change the story line to something else (you'll have to wait and see) cause i like this plot sm better!
