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.

Sofia: *Sees Josh and Olivia walk back in* Are you guys attached at the hip because you seem to always be together?
Josh: *I laugh nervously*
Olivia: Oh no we are just um what's the word we have been connecting- nope that's not it. We just both really understand each other and have been getting to know each other more.

FanfictionThis story is a roleplay between my friend (@LibbyLou814) and I. I play Joshua Bassett and she plays Olivia Rodrigo (and we both kinda fill in for other characters). The story picks up right when they head to Salt Lake City for the 1st time to film...
