*Ollie's pov*

Everything was ruined. The whole day at school Ami had been cold, distant and let me just say talking to her was so fucking awkward it was embarassing. I don't even know what I did, it's not my fault that Joe and Aoife happened to walk in when they did. Everything was going great until that point. I sighed, craving the feeling of her lips on mine once more.
"Yo Ols, you good?" Joey called out, followed by Gibsie, Claire and Johnny. Shannon had just left for work about a half hour ago. "Looking a bit glum there my guy." Gibsie joked, his arm wrapped around Claire's waist. "I'm grand, thanks though." I replied. "Come on Lad it's clear somethings going on with you and that girl, spill the beans."
Great. "Argh, fine." I sighed, telling the lads the whole fucking story while they joined me on the sofa.
"Jesus." Johnny announced, "Maybe you sh-"
"Well I think you should buy her flowers, or something she likes. Then go to her house and surprise her, tell her how you feel."
"Hey that's not actually too bad you know." I smiled gratefully at my sister's bestfriend.
"You're so smart Claire bear." Gibsie crooned, nuzzling into his girlfriends neck.
"Right I should probably get going then, before it gets dark."
"Good luck lad!"

Realising midway through buying a bouquet of daisies and some chocolates that I didn't have Ami's adress. Well shit. Checking my phone to see what I could do even after messing up this bad, I realised I had an unopened message from Dellie.

The boys told me what you were up to, thought you might need this X
63 Maddison Park.

Well thank god for that huh. I honestly don't know what the hell I would do without Dellie. My heart began pumping excitedly again, I was so nervous to tell Ami how I felt. But she needed to know, it was either this or we go back to ignoring eachother for another year. And I could not fucking live with myself not knowing if I ever had a shot with her.
