(A.N. Hey guys! Do you want more of this story, or do you want it to end soon?)

Connor's POV

It was now February of 2014. Olivia and I had been good friends for about 2 months now. I mean, we both liked each other, and did couple like things, but never made it official. She had been living with me for about a month and a half. She came to Minnesota with me for Christmas because her family didn't want her home. 

Valentine's day was next week, and I decided on the perfect way to ask her to be my girlfriend that day. I would also make it into a video, so my viewers could meet her. 

My plan was to make her go on a scavenger hunt using sticky notes. I would give notes to places that remind me of her. They could be places we've been, places that remind me of a funny moment, or just places she likes. Although it would have been amazing to film her going to all these places, we couldn't do that. So instead, I had the guys film our part, which was filming us going to all 15 places, and setting it up. The final place would have me there, and then I would ask her. Ricky volunteered to sit in the bushes and film that part. It was perfect. 

Olivia's POV (Valentine's Day, 2014)

My alarm went off at 7 o' clock am. I hated 8 am classes. I removed Connor's arm from my waist, and headed towards the bathroom. The night before 8 o' clock classes, I would shower and night to save time in morning. 

I side braided my hair, and put on my glasses. My contacts were too much of a hassle for early mornings. I ran downstairs and made some cereal. I checked my phone. No texts. Of course. No one ever texts me. 

I finished my cereal, and ran back upstairs. I brushed my teeth, and went into Connor and I's room. I changed into my clothes. I wore yoga pants and a UCLA crew neck sweater. I grabbed my Vera Bradley purse and my moccasins. I went over to Connor and kissed him on the cheek. 

"Good morning and happy Valentine's day!" I whispered in his ear. 

He turns around, and opens his eyes. 

"Good morning and happy Valentine's day to you too. After your class is over, do you wanna bring me some coffee from Starbucks?" he said groggily. 

"Yeah sure. I'll be home after that though." 

"Ok. And around 3, get dressed nice, ok?" He said, smiling and then turning back around. 

I walked out of the room. As I got in my car, the excitement grew about Connor's surprise.

************************************************************************************************************

After class I headed to Starbucks to get Connor a coffee and a tea for me. I went up to the counter and ordered. 

"Hi I'll have a large coffee and a large iced tea." I said to the barista. I didn't even look at the man. 

"That will be $6." I handed him the money. "And hi Olivia." the boy said. I looked up. It was Cody. His blue eyes sparkling in the sunlight from outside. 

"Cody? What are you doing here?" I said, shocked. I back away from the counter.

"I work here. I moved from England permanently. I was hoping you'd come in here one day."  He cocked his eyebrow. 

"Large coffee and large iced tea!" another barista shouted. I grabbed them and stormed out the door. 

"Olivia! Wait!" he yelled, chasing after me. 

I ran and got into my car, locking the doors. 

"Olivia! I still love you!" Cody shouted from outside. I drove off, without looking back.
