Josh: I uhh umm *I clear my throat and I help stand you back up*
Olivia: uhhh I- thanks for umm catching me.
Josh: Yeahh.....uh no problem.
*We both reach for the cake and our hands touch*
Josh: *I close my eyes a second but open them before u see me. I let you grab the cake* Need any help?
Olivia: Umm if you can close the door for me that would be great, otherwise I got it.
Josh: Okay *I close the door and walk behind you*
Josh: *I run in front of you and get the door and gesture for you to walk through*
Olivia: Thanks Joshy. *we walk in* This time we ACTUALLY have the cake.
Josh: That'd be my fault *I hold up and hand and laugh*
Olivia: You don't have to take the blame. Besides, I led the mission to get it.
Josh: *I laugh*
Olivia: *I laugh too and I finally didn't feel as awkward*
Josh: Hey I'm gonna go say hi to Matt. I'll be right back
Olivia: Okey I'll be here. *I get a text from Madison Hu ((from Bazardvark)) saying* "Hey liv! I miss you! How's Salt Lake? We need to catch up ASAP!"

Josh: Oh hey Matt! I love all the decorations; it looks so good!
Matt: Thanks Josh! Julia should be here in 45 minutes... could I ask you something?
Josh: Sure what's up?
Matt: Is there something going on between you and Olivia.
Josh: *face turns red* No uh. Why would you think that.
Matt: No reason; y'all just seem all cute with each other.
Josh: Oh, well I promise you there's nothing going on. Besides she just got out of a relationship.
Matt: She seems into you.
Josh: *Kinda punch him lightly* I don't know what your talking about *I kinda laugh nervous. I lean toward him* really? *I whisper*
Matt: I really think so, take my word for it.
Josh: Well, I don't plan on something happening...at least not now.

Olivia: *I walk to the bathroom and pull out my phone and call Madison*
Olivia: *on the phone* Hey Maddie
Madison: *On the phone* Hey Olivia! How's Salt Lake City?
Olivia: Good. I've settled in nicely. Well kinda.
Madison: What do you mean?
Olivia: Well a few days after I got here, I was talking to my costar Josh and decided to call Ethan. He got a little upset that I was texting Josh and broke things off *starts to get teary eyed*
Madison: Oh no! Are you okay?
Olivia: Yeah I'm doing better; after that, Josh came over and comforted me. He is so sweet.
Madison: Ooo does Olivia have a crush?
Olivia: What no! I just got out of a relationship. I ummm...yeah I totally don't.... like him.
Madison: She says confidently....
Olivia: Well this thing happened a little bit ago and I fell down only to be caught by him. We were really close to each other's face and almost kinda...
Madison: Olivia!
Olivia: I know, I know; and then we both went to go grab a cake for a party we are having for another costar and we kinda touched hands for awhile and I don't- ughhhh....my feelings are spiraling.
Madison: Wow that is a lot. *yells* OKAY MOM I'M COMING! Well, I gotta go Olivia, my moms calling me.
Olivia: *I laugh*
Madison: I think you should do what feels best for you. Anyway, I miss you. I love you... and don't do anything stupid.
Olivia: I won't *I laugh* Okay byeeee. Miss you too *hangs up*
Olivia: *They are probably wondering where I am.* *I leave the bathroom and walk back out.* Hey guys! What you guys talking about?
Josh: Oh hey Olivia!
Matt: *Winks at me*
Josh: Shut up matt *I laugh*
Matt: I didn't say anything! *Laughs*
Olivia: Okay.....
Matt: Well, lets go where everyone else is.
*We start to walk over*
Olivia: Also Matt what was that wink for?
Matt: What wink?
Olivia: You just- never mind *laughs*
Josh: *walks up to Olivia* Hey is everything okay. You seem weirdly happy. *I laugh*
Olivia: Just happy to be with the best person on earth *shoot don't be obvious* I mean people, not um like one person.
Josh: What? *I laugh*
Olivia: I just love this cast and I'm excited to be here..... Anyway, I let's just go see the rest of the cast. Yeah this way *goes the wrong way*
Josh: Olivia! *I grab your hand and pull you back* umm *clears throat* this way I point the other way.
