     His back was faced towards me. Oblivious to my presence. My palms were sweaty. I found myself at a loss for words. His attention seemed to be fixed on the table in front of him loaded with snacks. I probably could have tried to kill him or something and he wouldn't have noticed because he's was too caught up in the assortment of goods in front of him. I looked over at my blonde bestie. She knew how nervous I was. But I couldn't let Grant see me. Not yet, it would ruin Grayson's "genius" plan. I stood there stuck. My legs refused to move. Before he could turn around, Lauren grabbed my arm and dragged me out the side door and into the venue lobby.

"Wait here, make sure Ethan doesn't see you, and I'll meet up with you here before the show starts!" Lauren ran out the lobby and returned backstage before Ethan could notice her absence. I found a seat and waited for Lauren to come back. The show was said to start in 15 more minutes. I think I can manage.

*ETHANS POV*

London has been great, given that we've only been here for barely 2 days. Grayson has been acting really weird since we left the states. He usually tells me everything so I hope he's ok. By the time he got home yesterday I was already fast asleep. And he's also been acting super sketchy all morning. I seriously hope he doesn't mess up during the show and ruin it. We haven't been to England in ages and I miss the British fans, I would really hate to cancel and disappoint them. I heard the back door slam closed. I shook it off assuming it was just some of the stage crew. I looked over at Grayson and his face lit up like the sun. I turned around and came face to face with a petite blonde girl with piercing blue eyes and a contagious smile. She seemed to have caught Grayson attention.

He walked up to her and embraced her small frame into his overly large one. Im subsuming they know each other, but how? Seeing them like that reminded me of my last encounter with Olivia. I don't think its healthy to be thinking about someone this much. Especially if you had just met that person and barely know them. The couple walked up to me with a gigantic smiles on heir faces.

"Hey E, this is my girl, Lauren." Happiness oozed out of Grayson words. She politely stuck out her hand for me to shake but if someone is making my little brother this happy they deserve more than a simple handshake.

"With that smile that you managed to put on his face you're already family! Come here!" I embraced Lauren into a tight hug and whispered into her ear "please don't hurt him he's been through a lot already and he doesn't need a broken heart on top of that." She nodded at me and I flashed her a quick smile. Looking around the room I realized that they had finally set out some food. I was starving and Grayson was in a hurry this morning probably because he wanted to get here before Lauren did. As I was looking through the assortment of food that was laid out on the table I heard the door open again but brushed it off seeing as Grayson's girl was really here and everything went back to normal. Before I knew the show was about to start. We said bye to Lauren and told her to wait for us after the show so we could go hangout around London.

~skip show its basically like 4OU~

I was covered in cake since our birthday was coming up soon we decided to launch birthday cakes at each other. They actually tasted pretty good too. Too bad it was slightly frozen and all over us. I hopped in the shower and removed the broken pastry off of my body. I dried myself off and out on some slightly baggy ripped jeans, my hightop pink vans and a black t-shirt. I put on deodorant and cologne and brushed my teeth. I walked out of the bathroom and I think there was something in that cake that caused me to start hallucinating.

A girl who seemed oddly familiar was standing 20 feet away with her back towards me. My mind began to wonder as my heart began to race. There was no possible was that she is here. Did she know my real name? I don't remember telling her my last name so theres no way she could have found me online. Wait, is she a fan? Millions of questions popped into my head. I desperately need to know the answers to all of them. I think I was getting sick or something because there is no explanation as to how she could be here right now. I think I need to go to take a nap. This can't be happening. I thought I was never going to see her again. Is she friends with Lauren? Did Lauren blow my cover of being a normal person and not some "famous" viner? I was becoming delusional and confused. The root of all my questions came back to the same one: was that Olivia?

Lauren came up to me and said that she wanted to introduce me to my mystery girl. We walked over to were Grayson and the girl were chatting away and Grayson made a face at her as if telling her to look at whats behind her. She turned around and I could not believe it. I saw those eyes and I automatically knew who it was. It was all beginning to make sense again. Lauren must be the best friend that was mentioned on the plane. 

 As I stood in front of that beautiful being I couldn't help but stare. God how I missed her. I missed everything about her. Her hair. Her eyes. Her smile. Her short stature. Her laugh. Her corny dad jokes. Her voice. Her presence. I just missed her. My face lit up like a little kid on Christmas. I consumed her short stature into a great hug. Her arms snuck their way around my neck. Her head was resting up against my chest. I could feel her mouth mold into a smile. I picked her up and spun her around. The soft giggles that escaped her mouth were contagious. It felt so right to have Olivia back into my arms. After I put her down, I couldn't help but stare. Taking in her feature I realized that there was no way that she would actually be here.

I turned over at looked at Grayson, "Is this why you have been acting weird since last night?" His eyes held mischief and his lips housed a smirk. He nodded his head as a soft chuckles escaped his lips.

"Surprise!" All three of them shouted in unison. If this was how our London trip started then I can't wait to see how this ends. Olivia brought my head down to to whisper in my ear, "There is still so much you don't know about me... Ethan". Oh shit she knows my name.
