Trevor had to be taken into surgery to have pressure relieved from his brain, so Olivia had time to spare. A lot of time. So she tried to keep herself sane by trying to find her in-laws. She hesitantly took the elevator to Tanner's floor. As she got out of the elevator, she saw Tanner walking around with the help of a walker. It had only been a week since the accident, but he was doing so much better than his brother.

"Liv?" Tanner asked quickly, and Olivia's eyes went wide because not only had Tanner spotted her but Alex had also.

"You aren't welcomed here, Olivia." Alex spat, as she stomped towards Olivia. Olivia bit her lips before moving to step back into the elevator that she thought was open, but instead, her back slammed against it.

"I-i'm sorry. I just wanted to check in..." Olivia breathed.

"I don't care what you want to do! We all asked you to leave, so why didn't you?!" Alex hissed, as she moved closer to Olivia. Olivia had nowhere to go because she had been backed into a corner.

"Alexandra Langan! Lay off right now!" Tanner exclaimed as he worked his way slowly towards his wife and her former best friend.

"Tann-"

"She is family, Alex. You two were best friends, but for some reason that has changed. Do not attack her." Tanner spoke, before grabbing his wife's arm and pulling her back. Olivia quickly turned and moved past them and to the stairwell. She quickly walked down the stairs before getting to the landing and taking a shaky breath as she tried to calm herself down, even if it was just for a few seconds.

Tanner was laying back in his bed when his mother and father showed up again. They had left to see Madison and Rosemarie, and now Tanner was going to kick them out again to go find Olivia and check on her. He hated how Alex was acting, and he didn't know why she was acting like this. She had never been this clingy or mean, especially to Olivia. They were once extremely close, but that was far from true now.

"Hey, honey." June smiled, as she walked into the room and over to her son. She leaned down and kissed his messy brown hair before gently turning his head so she could look at the bruise on his cheek.

"I need you two to do something for me," Tanner spoke, and Fred eyed his son with concern.

"What do you need?" June asked, as she reached into her purse and grabbed her brush, before starting to work on smoothing her son's hair.

"Olivia came up here to see me, and Alex attacked her. Olivia was in tears when she left, and I don't know if she's okay. I'm worried that something will happen to her or the baby. Trevor is going to be so angry at me when we finally get to see each other. He'll be angry that my wife attacked his." Tanner spoke. 

"What? Why was she up here? She rarely leaves the hospital or Trevor, and it's only to see the babies." June replied.

"I don't know, but I need one of you to go check in on her and the other to find my wife. When I got on her case, she got pissed off and stormed out. She doesn't have a car, so she'll be somewhere in the hospital." Tanner spoke.

"Uh, I'll go find Alex." Fred sighed softly, before moving from the room.

"Before I go see Olivia... I think that we should talk about your brother." June breathed. They hadn't talked about what was wrong with Trevor, but something else had to have happened to Trevor again to make Olivia leave his side.

~+~

June found Olivia in the stairwell where she had escaped earlier. She sank down beside her daughter-in-law before grabbing her hand and squeezing it gently.

"What are you doing down here? Why did you leave Trevor's side?" June asked, and Olivia bit her lip before looking at her husband's mother.

"Why does Alex hate me? I don't know what I did..." Olivia whispered.

"I don't know, but I will find out later. Fred is going to talk to her right now. Now, what is happening with Trevor?" June asked, and Olivia frowned as she looked at her phone. Nadia was going to message her when he was out of surgery, but that was nearly 3 hours ago now.

"His brain is swelling. They were going to either remove a portion of his skull to help or do burr holes. Either way, it's a big surgery." Olivia breathed.

"Why didn't you tell us?!" June exclaimed as she stood quickly. But her tone made Olivia cry. Olivia stood and went to leave yet another place she felt unwanted, but June stopped her.

"I'm sorry!" Olivia sobbed, as she kept her eyes down and kept her hands shoved into the pockets of her sweatshirt. The only thing keeping her from giving up completely was the small life within her swollen stomach.

"No, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have gotten so angry with you. It isn't your fault. This will never be your fault." June breathed, but Olivia shook her head.

"I hate that I'm the punching bag! Alex wouldn't even be with Tanner if it hadn't been for me bringing up the fact that he was single! But in the end, I feel like there is no space in Trevor's life or Tanner's life for anyone but Alex. She has been a constant in their lives, and I can't even be Tanner's friend without her freaking out!" Olivia sobbed, before pulling her arm away from June and quickly moving down the stairs.

~+~

Fred found Alex outside in the cold. She had her hands shoved into her jacket and she had her hat on, even if it was lopsided and she looked beyond pissed off.

"What is happening to you, Alex?" Fred asked.

"She's nothing special," Alex grumbled.

"What do you mean? We love you and Olivia so much. We couldn't ask for better wives for our sons, and mothers to our grandchildren."

"Olivia is your favorite. I know that I shouldn't act like this, but you make it seem like she can't do anything wrong. For your information, she wanted to abort Rosie and Madi." Alex spat. 

"We knew that. They have been really honest about everything, but after her accident-"

"It's not all about her!" Alex cried.

"Alright. So I know that you have known Trevor and Tanner longer, but you don't have the right to push Olivia away. She is Trevor's wife and Tanner's friend. She helped Tanner through his break up, and she has brought Trevor back to us. So if you are jealous of Olivia and using it to turn everyone against her, then stop. Because it won't work, darling!" Fred exclaimed.

He turned and walked back towards the hospital as Alex let out an angry groan. She went to turn back and walk back into the hospital, but then she saw where Olivia was sitting on one of the cold benches as she sobbed. Alex bit her lip before sighing and moving towards her friend. Or her former friend. She hadn't decided yet.

"I think we need to talk." Alex sighed.
