olivia
me and the others pull up to the pool expecting to get out and have a fun time with daniel and his friends. but we weren't prepared for what we were about to see.

it was liv, she was on the ground, surrounded by blood.

i quickly run up to her, and then to the shack to ask lana what happened. and after she explained everything to me, i was in shock i didn't know what to do.

"olivia?" i hear come behind me.

it was lisa, livs boss. i quickly run up to her and give her a hug, hugging her tightly.

lisa was like a mom to the livs, they even called her mom now and then. lisa has basically known liv her whole life, and offered her a job when she was of age.

liv had been a lifeguard at the pool for quite a while now, and with liv comes olivia. and with olivia being at the pool so much, her and lisa got very close as well.

"lana what happened?" lisa said walking us into the guard shack.

"i- liv- she- anderson- dead-" lana could barely speak.

"here" ellie says, handing lisa the incident report.

"amari was the boy liv saved? then why is mr anderson on the report" lisa asked .

"well amari was the boy liv tried to save, he was under the water for so long, the pressure collapsed his lungs, we couldn't get any air in and compressions wouldn't work" ellie said.

"i'm sorry, did you say amari, as in amari anderson? the little boy me and liv watch on weekends?" i asked.

we were then interrupted.

"olivia, kiara is riding in the ambulance, do you want to go with her" johnny asked me.

i quickly run over and hop in the ambulance and we were on our way to the hospital. me and kiara were so scared for liv, we were silent, the only sounds coming out of our mouthes, were sobs.

when we arrive at the hospital, zach and johnny said they stopped at the house for clothes for all of us, considering we were still in our bathing suits.

about 10 minutes later, we were in the waiting room, and daniel and his friends arrived. daniel straight faced, and the rest of them laughing and joking.

"shut up" i said.

"what" they say in unison.

"my bestfriend just got the shit beaten out of her, for something she had no control over. she is currently in an emergency surgery, where she could die. and you guys are laughing? are you kidding me? SHE COULD DIE, my bestfriend, is in the OR, fighting for her life. so shut the hell up" i yell.

"olivia, they didn't know her." johnny tried to defend them.

"i'm glad" i quickly make my way down the long white hallway, and outside, sitting on a near by bench.

what is wrong with them. what if that was daniel in there, or one of them. what if liv dies, she didn't mean to do it. she tried to help the boy.

the words running through olivias mind were quickly erased by the sirens of an ambulance pulling up.

and much to her surprise it was the father of the boy, blood everywhere. like he had been through what liv just went through, only worse.

olivia has been friends with liv for years, she knew everyone liv knew. including the little boy, amani. who loved liv, she was his favorite guard at the pool.

olivia soon became close with the family like liv was, and even helped liv watch amani now and then.

the feeling going through her body was indescribable. but she couldn't feel bad for the father, he hurt her and her friends.

i was furious, i was confused, i was speechless.

olivia was quickly pulled from her thoughts when a familiar voice was heard. Ms. Anderson, the young boys mother.

"olivia?" she said .

i was silent.

"olivia, please speak to me i need to know what happened. lana and ellie wouldn't tell me anything" she pleads.

"it was your husband." is all i said.

"i'm sorry, what about him" she says confused.

"he hurt liv, nearly killed her" i say still not looking at her.

i'm so sorry.
is liv okay?
how badly was she hurt?
what happened?
where's my son?

her son, she didn't know anything. and who was i to tell her what happened. i just know the small story lana told me.

"ms. anderson, do you know what occurred today at the pool?" i ask, tears in my eyes.

"no, i was on my way there after work, they were closing the gate, a- and lana told me to come to the hospital" she said.

"ms anderson, your um- you- excuse me"

i couldn't get the words out, i couldn't tell her that liv, lana, and ellie couldn't help her son. i couldn't tell her that liv was in surgery.

i made my way back inside the hospital to the waiting room and sat with kiara, hoping that liv would be out of surgery soon.

_

12 hours later .

i had waken up next to jack.

"where's kiara and the others" i asked jack.

"they all went to the vending machine, they got pretty hungry" he says scrolling through instagram.

a couple minutes later they all returned with snacks. and kiara had jack move so she could sit next to me again.

"hungry, i got you some cheetos" she said.

"how bout a coffee" i joked.

"here princess" i heard a familiar voice say from behind me.

i turned around and saw the person i needed the most right now, charlie. standing there with dunkin in his hand, and my favorite sandwich in another.

"large caramel iced coffee, extra cream, extra sugar. and a cream cheese bagel.. oh and for kiara, a  blue raspberry coolata, and a cream cheese bagel as well" he said.

"awh he's not an idiot and actually knows if you date my bestie you date me" she laughed.

he handed us our food and sat down on the other side of me, while me and kiara ate, we heard the words we've been waiting for.

"friends of olivia andrews" the doctor said.

me and kiara rushed over to where the doctor was standing, the others waiting in their chairs, us giving them the information when we sat back down.

"well what did he say" zach asked very eagerly.

me and kiara were silent. but i finally got the courage to tell them all.

"she uh- liv is um- she's in the ICU in a medically induced coma" i say with tears in my eyes.

"her chance of survival ?" johnny asked.

"f-fifteen percent" i say letting the tears fall from my eyes.

next thing i know daniel, suddenly gets out of his seat and walks away. his friends following him.

me and kiara getting up and following him, knowing the reason he hasn't said a word since we got here.
