Olivia's POV

I didn't want to talk to her, but I knew I had to. The problems we were having were too big to be ignored this time.

I cant pretend like this never happened. Not anymore.

I opened the door for her to come inside.

For a few seconds we both just sat on the bed, not daring to look at each other, for neither of us knew what to say.

"I'm sorry," Tess mumbled much to my surprise, then a little louder, "I realize now that I crossed a line and I'm truly sorry. I was just really overprotective of you and I just was, well..." she trailed off.

"What?" I questioned.

"Jealous," she paused then continued, "Listen Olivia, I like you. I like you a lot. And I know that we've been friends for a really long time, but I think that we'd be perfect for each other. I guess the reason I've been so protective and jealous and embarrassing you all the time is because I can't control the way I feel about you."

In a way, I kind of felt bad for her. I just don't understand how she couldn't see that I didn't feel the same way about her even after giving her so many hints.

"Tess, I like you a lot, but you should know that I don't see you that way. I never have and I never will. I'm sorry."

A mix of emotions came upon her face: confusion, sadness, realization, and finally, anger.

"Why can't you see that we'd be perfect for each other!" she yelled getting off the bed.

"Tess, I just don't feel that way about you!"

"But why! I don't fucking get it Olivia I am PERFECT for you!"

I yell, "Tess you don't fucking get to decide how I feel! You do not choose who I get to be with, I do! And you not understanding that is a prime example of why I don't like you that way. We just aren't meant to be together!"

"I can't fucking do this anymore," Tess mumbled, "I'm leaving."

"What do you mean?" In asked in confusion.

"I mean I need to take a fucking break from you and everything!"

"Where will you stay?" I questioned.

"I don't know, I'll figure it out. You cant change my mins about this. I'll be out of here by tonight then you wont have to worry about be anymore," she stomped out of my room and slammed the door behind me.

To be honest, I think her going away for a little
while might be beneficial to getting us back to a healthy friendship.

Maybe over time she would get over me, or meet someone new.

As much as I wish she would change, I know she wont. I can't change who she is. Sometimes the best thing you can do for a person is to just
let them figure things out on their own.

Buzz buzz.

I felt my phone vibrate and turn my phone on to see:
You have received a message from wherearetheavocados.

I can't believe she still wants to talk to me.

I open my phone and go to instagram, where she wrote me:
wherearetheavocados:
good morning beautiful

oliviawhite:
beautiful? wow u r really
going for it aren't you?

wherearetheavocados:
i only go for what i want😉

oliviawhite:
and what is it that you want?

wherearetheavocados:

Holy shit I didn't expect her to be that straightforward I thought we were just joking around and I now I have no clue what to say.

oliviawhite:
i think we can do that;)

wherearetheavocados:
you wouldn't mind if
i came to the coffee shop
where you work would you?

oliviawhite:
i wouldn't mind at all!
i'm working tomorrow if u wanna
come by or something

Please say yes, please say yes, please say yes.

wherearetheavocados:
you got it mamas i'll be there

oliviawhite:
see you soon :)
Her calling me mamas makes me the happiest person ever. It's really fucking hot. I cannot believe she's coming to see me tomorrow, I can't fucking wait!

Snapping me out of it, I hear a door open and close.

I walk into Tess' room to see all her drawers open with her clothes gone and her suitcases are gone as well.

I looked around the apartment only to see that she wasn't anywhere.

I guess she left a little early.

I guess it's for the better.

I should just focus on seeing Billie tomorrow.
