Olivia's Pov

Of course when I and Shayne are going to have coffee Ian calls us and says it's important.

"Yes you hear it folks our company fucked us and others over" Ian said

After Ian called us into a meeting I was with Shayne talking like the usual going to get coffee, now we found out we're losing smosh.

It was a blur from then on out, we worked really hard and to suddenly take a break and not knowing if it's the end of smosh is stressful just waiting for what.

Ian explained we can still make videos but with lower equipment, and post our already filmed ones.
This gave me comfort but not a whole bunch.

During our "break" I spent a lot of time with the squad as sadly Sam was always busy. I spent a lot of time with Shayne too he was always good company.

Shayne's Pov:

"No Olivia you press this button, press X"

"X X X X X X, HEY look I punched him"

I was trying to teach Olivia how to play street fighter,  I and Damien live together and do play it a lot so I thought showing Olivia how to play was a good idea.

Turns out it was brilliant-

"Shayne pass me that Cheeto"

"That one singular Cheeto on the GROUND"

"What 2minute rule"

"Okay here"

She took the Cheeto with her mouth, still focused on trying to learn this game.

Eventually she got tired and flopped on the couch next to me.

"Hey Shayne, i know you broke up with your girlfriend it was a while ago but I just wanted to say I'm here"

"Yeah don't worry that was a while ago and I'm over it now" I say smiling looking at her "anyways how are you and Sam"

Even asking about him hurts, Sam has been a longtime friend of mine introducing them was the worst decision of my love life to be exact.

"Well to be honest we do really click well together he's really amazing, we have dinners out sometimes but is it bad that I can't help but want more? Is it bad that I feel like something missing"

"Sam is a great guy believe me and I knew you two would go well together but this is like your 2-3 boyfriend maybe you just don't know your feelings"

My heart skipped a beat.. who am I kidding my heart collapsed, everyday of my life in smosh everyday on set just looking at her made my heart hurt.

"Olivia..."

And of course her phone rings UNIVERSE WHY.

"HI SAM,,, yeah I'll see you soon"
"SHAYNE HE WANTS TO HANG OUT"

She hugged me and rushed out, she hasn't seen him in a week so I guess that's good for her.

After she left I found myself watching squad videos and boy I have it bad, it was always apparent I liked her when she was talking or doing some weird thing I only noticed.

In one of the videos I said Olivia was my closest friend, you can tell how much fun we have together, us together you know we'll laugh until we fall.

She was that girl, the one I've always wanted but the one that got away the worst dynamic. Maybe I'll get a chance but just waiting? is that what I should do, wait...

I just can't I've waited but the problem is she's with my friend.

I got dressed up, I smiled looking at my black dress and curled hair. Sam is finally not busy and I love having pasta with my baby.

We sit at the restaurant dim lighting beautiful scenery and muffled voices.

We talked and talked like normal, of course i loved talking to him he feels the same way. It wasn't awkward it wasn't bad but it didn't feel right.

I enjoyed our talks I liked Sam as a boyfriend, he checked all the boxes and he did say he loved me..

But it wasn't him I felt love for, i thought to myself maybe if I wait I'll feel more a spark to make me certain about us.

As our food arrived I say in a squealing voice "Mmm gimme gimme my pastaaaa"

"You're so cute" Sam said ruffling my hair.
"Well how was your day I heard your were hanging out with Shayne"

"Yeah we just played games and ate lunch with Damien too"

"You both seem to get along, well what would I expect he's a great guy"

"Yeah he is but not as good as you" I say holding his hands.

"Let's eat" Sam said smiling.

After dinner Sam dropped me off home, he didn't stay over this time since he had an audition tomorrow.

Dinner was great I and Sam always have a good time, but I feel like I'm missing something. I'm missing a certain banter someone to talk and yell with about anything. That can go on and on with random topics and someone to be weird with.

I don't know who.

I didn't know who it was but they seemed to have found a random number and found me. Weird but sweet, it reminded me of someone.
