Save Me

fifty eight

We stand there, he is comforting me. Eventually he had to leave because the show was starting soon. I did my homework, showered, put on a pair of my favorite pajamas and crawled into bed going to sleep early.

_______________

[Olivia's POV]

I woke up and got out of bed quickly, I was actually excited about today because after school Spencer and I were going shopping. I dressed myself in light wash jeans and a yellow crop top, the pants were so high wasted that you couldn't see my stomach at all, Lin will like that. I styled my hair half up and half down, my curls falling down my back, my hair has gotten so long. I ran downstairs after I finished getting ready and did the usual things, fed India and made myself a cup of coffee as well as some for Pippa who was giving me a ride to school today.

"Good morning." I said as I hopped into the passenger side of Pippa's car, I handed her the coffee which she gratefully took. I tucked my wallet into my backpack, Lin had given me money the night before. We had a very long conversation about Spencer, he didn't trust her but after I explained everything he allowed me to give her a second chance.

"So I am going shopping after school with a friend, could you drop the 2 of us off at the mall?" I asked her.

"Ya, which friend?" She asked. Oh lord, now I have to have this conversation again. It was already hard enough telling Anthony and Lin.

"Spencer.." I said, looking away and out the window.

"Oh really? Did Lin ok this?" She asked. Maybe she won't ask questions.

"Ya, I know it may seem weird but she explained everything to me and I am going to give her a second chance. It won't happen again." I say.

"I believe you." She says as we pull up to the school. "Alright have a good day, Via!" She shouts as I get out of the car. She uses the nickname that the cast had recently given me after Andrew complained about my name being too long to use in a snapchat caption a few days ago. Although Lin and Anthony still called me Olivia.

I went through my day smoothly, Spencer and I discussed which store we were going to go to to find our costumes. I handed in my permission to graduate early paper, I didn't tell anyone other than Lin about it because I was too embarrassed.

"You ready?" Spencer asks me as I grab all of my things from my locker and put it into my backpack at the end of the day.

"Ya, let's go." I say. I lead her down to the front of the school and see Pippa waiting in her car for us. I get in the front, Spencer is in the back.

"Hello, you must be Spencer. I'm Phillipa." Pippa says, she reaches out a hand for Spencer to shake.

"It's nice to meet you!" Spencer says as she shakes Pippa's hand.

We drive to the mall, Pippa jamming loud music the entire way. We arrive and I ask her to bring my bag up to my room whenever she has time, I grab my wallet and Spencer and I go into the mall.

We were browsing through a store when Spencer says, "I am telling my parents about my sexuality soon, maybe tonight. I wanted to thank you, you have given me the courage to come clean. Hopefully after I tell them I will have enough strength to go to the principal and tell on Liam. I will get in trouble obviously for what I did to you but it's worth it, I deserve everything I am going to get."

"I have a few things to say to that.. 1, I am so proud of you for telling your parents. 2, I appreciate you telling the principal the truth I mean I don't want you to get in trouble but that leads to my 3rd thing, Liam is going down!" I say. She laughs and continues to search clothing.

"Ok, so obviously we have to look hot right? I mean it's a college party!" Spencer says, I laugh and agree.

After an hour or so of searching and just talking we finally got our costumes, they were basic and unoriginal but we were satisfied.

We called Spencer's mom to come get us, the show was starting soon so the cast couldn't get us. They dropped me off at the theater and I quietly made my way up to my room. I thought about Spencer, I hope that her parents will react well to her news.
