*pov of Oliver*
What happened? What was that she just did? I confessed my feelings for her and she just ran away. I don't understand. I thought she felt the same way and that's why she took me kissing that slut so hard. I don't want to ruin anything between us, she's the best thing that has happened to me. The lunch bell rang and I put the lunch tray away and went to my class which was science. We had a lab but I was too focused on Daisy. She had this effect on me. I wonder what would of happened if I never invited her to sit with me. Elizabeth slapped me."Yo at least pretend to help me." "Sorry Liz." I mumbled. The day went on. I'll just talk to Daisy at Practice. I nodded my head and started to help Liz with the lab until the bell rang and class was over.

What was that? Did he just say he likes me? But no he couldn't I'm so bleh and he's so what's the word, hot. The nurse covered my elbow and gave me an ice pack for my nose to stop bleeding. I ended up missing last period, history, so this whole thing was a blessing in disguise. My nose finally stopped bleeding in time for me to be able to go get ready for XC. I saw Lucy, Emilia, Skylar, and Brynn. All of them smiles but their faces showed horror at my elbow and dried blood on my shirt. "Dear god, what happened?" Exclaimed Brynn. "Oh I fell on my elbow and then I tried to break up a fight and got elbowed in the nose." I said like it was the most normal thing in the world. "Should you be running?" Emilia asked. I nodded, I mean I was fine physically it's just mentally it feels like I've been fucked. As I was getting ready my heart began to pump faster. "Hey, you don't seem fine. Is there a particular boy on your mind? Perhaps Oliver?" She smirked. His name made my heart drop but for once in a good way. "Maybe." "Tell me. Let Lucy help you" she said. "Okay fine basically I broke up the fight between him and it doesn't matter, then we were sitting waiting for the nurse and he kinda confessed he likes me but being an awkward person I ran away but I like him too and just ugh! Help me please." I said begging. "Oh dear," she shook her head"well this is an easy fix tell him you like him, no better yet kiss him or something or make him kiss you. Like play hard to get but insinuate you like him so he does it." "I'll try the last one, how do i do that?" "Be flirty silly." She laughed at my confusion. "Erm okay wish me luck. But if I'm in trouble help me." She winked at me and we headed out to start practice. It started off normal everyone was fully clothed as it was freezing outside. Not like the weather back in Cali, that's probably the only thing I miss back there. Running warmed me up though which helped. I saw Oliver he slowed down a bit so he could run with me. I smirked at him and sprinted ahead of him, he shook his head and chased after me. I looked over at Lucy who gave me a thumbs up. I basically continued things like this during practice, like playfully pushing him or hitting him. I hoped it was working. Practice ended, "get on my back flower girl." Oliver stated. "What if I don't want to?" I said with a smile growing on my face. He turned around slowly and raised his eyebrows. This was my cue to run away, he chased me and caught me and slung me on his shoulder."tsk tsk flower girl. I offered an easier way but this is what you get." He walked into the woods. "Um where exactly are you taking me kidnapper?"I asked with a little giggle. I could feel him smile "you'll see". Suddenly we arrived on top of a little hill where a blanket was set up. He put me down and it was a cute little set up. There was a blanket on the ground, and one on the blanket, then there was a thermos with what I hoped was coffee or something like it. I turned around and he scratched the back of his neck. "Some of the guy instead of go on a run set this up and well despite you not having much of a choice I hoped we could watch the sun set and just sit together. As a friends if that's what you want." He said with a little smile. "I-" i didn't know what to say which made him look at the ground and frown. "I think it's adorable. And sorry for running away from you when you said you liked me, because I didn't know how to react and well I like you too which is why I was being kinda mean earlier cuz you kinda hurt my feelings even though I shouldn't of thought that and-" I was cut off when Oliver kissed me. He pulled away and I smiled then I kissed him. He grabbed my hand and brought me over to the blanket and wrapped the other one around us. We both just sat there cuddling watching the sunset. I wasn't used to anything like this, but I liked it. He put his arm around me and pulled me into him and kissed the top of my head."Oli?" I asked "hmm?" "This is cute and everything but im cold." We both laughed," do you want some hot chocolate?" I nodded and he poured some for us. Soon the sun set and we both got up and left the hill. It was dark but we made it to the school fine. I grunted remembering I had to walk home,"hey can I have a blanket to walk home with? It's getting colder?" He laughed at my request," Wait you think I'm going to let you walk home in the dark? I'm driving you home." I couldn't help but smile to myself, I've never smiled over a person in my whole life and well smiled in general. What this boy does to me is unbelievable. "Okay!" I said cheerily. We listened to Shadow Moses and by the time it was over we were at my house. My mom still wasn't home, or at least her car wasn't in her driveway. "Do you want to come in? We could like order a pizza or I could make food?" He turned to me and raised his eyebrows, a classic thing he seems to do," sure let's get pizza!" We went inside my house," welcome to the casa de Hope." He laughed "you're a real dork you know?" "Look who's talking!" We got a pizza, vegetarian at my request which he was fine with. We watched a movie, well a few movies. All of which were horror. I was terrified but I think Oliver liked them because I was basically clinging onto him for dear life. I ended up falling asleep in him arms. I woke up at 6am and sighed. I saw Oliver was asleep and I turned off the TV. I guess I'll get an early start to the day. I remembered I never gave oli his shirt back so I put it next to him for when he woke up to change into for school. I went to my room and laid out some clothes for the day. I walked to the kitchen and made some coffee, now was the fun part to my day. Waking Oliver.
