"Oh baby, you aren't getting rid of me that easy. We will call everyday, facetime too so I can see your beautiful face and make sure that you are wear cute outfits. Plus, I will be back in a month or so." She says. "Be kind to Anthony, don't be mad at him about this. I am sure he has a reason."

We talk for a little bit longer before we both fall asleep in my bed.

[Olivia's POV]

I woke up to soft sunlight coming through my window, it was quiet and I was alone. Jazzy was gone. I rolled over to check what time it was, 8:32 am. I hoped out of bed and made my way downstairs. I was wearing one of Daveed's big t shirts and it hung way past my athletic shorts. I was wearing a pair of knitted socks that Lin's mom made me when she found out that he was adopting me.

I walked down the stairs, saying hello to whoever was in their dressing room already. I saw Anthony in his room, he was sitting on the floor on his phone. I quietly walked inside, he looked up at me from the floor. I was silent, just looking at him. He looked sad, maybe a little guilty as well. He knew what I knew. He opened his mouth to speak.

"Olivia.." He said softly. I shook my head and left, continuing the journey to the kitchen. The rest of the cast that weren't in their dressing rooms, were in the kitchen making coffee and having breakfast. I liked the sight of this, having my entire family with me in the morning.

"Good morning," I said in a quiet voice. They all said good morning back and I pushed my way to the coffee pot to grab a cup. Thayne was sitting at the kitchen table with a cookie and some coffee, I sat down next to him.

"Did you have fun yesterday?" He asks me.

"Ya, it was great. I wish it could be like this every night." I said, sipping my coffee.

"Me too, my apartment is like 5 by 5 ft. I can barely even stand up in it, plus the stage is so cool at night." He says. I smile at him. Ariana, Chris, and Leslie join our conversation. They all are complaining about their homes, I just listen to them.

"Olivia, do you want to go out to breakfast with Anthony and I? He has something he wants to tell us." Lin whispers in my ear so that no one else can hear that Anthony has news.

I look towards the kitchen doorway, Anthony is standing awkwardly looking at me. He mouths the word "Please" to me and I sigh and say yes. I get up and run upstairs to put on a pair of leggings and a sweatshirt then run back down and walk with Lin and Anthony to the restaurant. We sit down and order, we all get pancakes.

"Ok, um.. I don't really know how to say this. Jasmine and I broke up last night, everyone was asleep when it happened." Anthony says, looking straight into Lin's eyes.

"Wha... But, Janthony? I shipped it and everything." Lin says.

"I know. Not everything is meant to last forever though. We are being mature about it, she is going to call you today about taking time off." He says.

I am now looking out the window of the restaurant, watching the people walk by. I try to picture what their lives are like, I guess at their professions and what their names might be. It's a good distraction from the conversation Lin and Anthony are having.

"So, why did you break up with her? I thought you guys were happy together." Lin asks. I shift my attention back to the conversation, I would like to know the answer to this. Partly because I am truly curious and partly because I need to tell Jazzy why he broke up with her so she isn't clueless about the whole thing.

"We were happy, but feelings fade and I know that that is cheesy and makes me sound like a jerk but I couldn't keep living a lie. I wasn't in love with her." He says.

"Are you interested in someone else?" Lin asks. Anthony looks out the window and then at me, then back to Lin.

He waits a moment before saying, "No, no I might have thought about it for like a second but no. We can't be together."
