*Olivia's Pov*

"So, did anything interesting happen since the last time I've seen you, which I feel was like forever ago?" Tommy decided to come over and see me since I wasn't able to come over due to Jack and I's date. I felt a bead of sweat nearly slide down my forehead when he asked that question before trying to regain my cool and not seem suspicious. 

"Nope... I was just thinking about repainting my room green, maybe. Did you end up seeing that... Annabelle movie or whatever with Lydia?" I hopped onto my bed, bringing my legs underneath me and forming my hands into fists, resting my face on them. I was trying to seem as uninterested in my weekend and very interested in Tommy's. But even I  thought I was acting a little odd. Repainting your room? Really, Olivia?

 "Olive! You're back!" Tommy yelled in excitement, shaking me by my shoulders.

"I thought you were done calling me that!" That's when I knew I threw myself into a deep hole...

~Flashback to 8 Years Ago~

"Liv, I swear you're turning green from all of the salad and broccoli you eat!" A front-toothless Tommy says, lifting his fork in the air and directing it to me.

I frown, pushing myself away from the kitchen table and hopping down from the chair, my scrawny legs balancing me until my feet meet the floor. I race to the bathroom, sliding my hand up the wall until my fingers feel the light switch, flicking the lights on. Standing on my tippy toes, I look in the mirror, poking my cheeks and looking at my arms to make sure no green has made its appearance on my body.

"I AM NOT green, Tommy! I'm a peach color!  A normal peach." I yell loud enough for Tommy to hear me from the kitchen, furrowing my eyebrows. I soon hear Tommy trudge into the bathroom, seeing his taller torso come behind me in the mirror, setting his hands on my shoulders. 

"Mhm. That's what you think..." I push his hands off my shoulders, turning around to face him while crossing my arms.

"Tommy!"

"Olive!"

"What? Who's Olive?"

"You, dummy! Olivia the Olive, see how perfect that name is?" He giggles, flicking my freckled nose lightly. That was enough for me to run after him, threatening to cut all his pretty little locks of hair off.

~End of Flashback~

Gosh do I truly miss those days...

"I hate you," I say slowly while giving him a semi-evil glare. But at the same time, I was so thankful to have such an amazing cousin, although he made fun of me 90 percent of the time.

"Your love for me in nearly pouring out of your pores."  I give him a weird look. I always knew Tommy was pretty strange deep inside...

"I do love you a little, cuz."
