The next day.
You woke up, took a shower, brushed your teeth, and got dressed:
"Y/n,"Olivia said, "I heard about what you did on the field yesterday. Congrats." You smiled. "Thanks,"You said. "It's about time someone shows Asher that he isn't all that,"Olivia said.
You laughed. "There's just something about him that just makes my skin boil,"You said. "Try being in a relationship with him,"Olivia said. You looked at Olivia. "You're dating Asher?" You asked.
"Yes,"Olivia said. "Is he different?" You asked. "No, it's like football is all he cares about,"Olivia said. You both sat down at the island. "Well,"You said, "That's guys for you." Olivia laughed.
You both hung out all day. "I'm going back to Crenshaw for a few, do you want to come?" You asked. "Yes,"Olivia said. You nodded, and Olivia drove back to Crenshaw.
You knocked on the door, and your mom answered. You both walked into the house. "Hi mom,"You said. "Hi sweetie,"Your mom said. "This is Olivia, she's my best friend,"You said.
"Nice to meet you Olivia,"Your mon said. "Nice to meet you as well Ms. James,"Olivia said. You all sat down on the couch, and talked about school.
"How's football?" Your mom asked. "It's great,"You said, "I know I may be the only girl on the team, but that doesn't mean anything."
"Yes it does,"Olivia said, "It means that you are able to follow your dreams." You smiled. "Thanks Liv,"You said. "You're welcome,"Olivia said.
There was a knock at the door. You walked over to it, and opened it. It was Joyner and Chris. "Hey guys,"You said. "Hey,"Joyner said.
They walked inside, and you closed the door. "Liv, this is Joyner and Chris,"You said. "Nice to meet you,"Olivia said. "Nice to meet you too,"Chris said. "Y/n is your mom here?" Joyner asked.
"Yeah,"You said, "She's in the kitchen." Joyner and Chris walked into the kitchen. "I thought you were lying,"Olivia said. "About?" You asked. "Having them as friends,"Olivia said.
You smiled. "They protect me, no matter what,"You said, "We met when we were 13." "If you don't mind me asking?"Olivia asked, "What happened to Lucas?"
"...He was walking home one night, when another gang caught him, because of what he did,"You said, "He stole from them, to give to the unfortunate. He got caught, beat up, and then if that wasn't bad enough, they shot him."
"I'm so sorry y/n,"Olivia said softly. You smiled and wiped a tear away. "It's fine,"You said. "How old was he?" Olivia asked.
"Fifteen,"You said, "He was a year older than me, he was a very close friend. I wish I could've done something to help him." Olivia hugged you. "I think we should go,"You said.
Olivia nodded. "Ma!" You yelled. Your mom walked into the living room, with Joyner and Chris. "We're leaving,"You said. Your mom nodded and kissed your head. "I love you,"Your mom said.
"I love you too,"You said. You hugged your mom and kissed her on the cheek. "It was nice meeting you Ms. James,"Olivia said. "It was nice meeting you also Olivia,"Your mom said.
You all walked out of the house, and to the car. "Joyner, Chris,"You said. They looked at you. "Promise me that you will protect my mom,"You said, "Promise me." Joyner and Chris nodded.
"We got you,"Joyner said. "No,"You said, "I want a promise." Chris nodded. "We promise,"Chris said, "No harm is to come to your mom." You nodded, and hugged them. "I'll see you guys later,"You said.
"See you,"Joyner said, "Love you sis." "Love you too bro,"You said. You got in the car, and Olivia started driving. "That's your brother?" Olivia asked. "No,"You said, "We just have that close of a bond that we're like siblings."
Olivia nodded, and you guys made it back to Beverly. You walked into the house. "Where have you two been?" Jordan asked. "I went back home,"You said, "To see my mom."
Jordan nodded. "When can I meet your mom?" Jordan asked. "When you become my boyfriend,"You said. "Oh really?" Jordan asked. "No,"You said. You walked upstairs to your room.
"Jordan?" Olivia asked. "Yeah?" Jordan asked. "You like her, don't you?" Olivia asked. "Yeah,"Jordan said. "She likes you too,"Olivia said. "How do you know?" Jordan asked.
"She lights up when you enter the room,"Olivia said, "You should do it." "Do what?" Jordan asked. "Ask her out dummy,"Olivia said, "Hell, you've already kissed."
"How do you know about that?" Jordan asked. Olivia pulled her phone out of her pocket, and showed a picture of you and Jordan kissing. "Thanks to Instagram,"Olivia said, "Some words get around quickly."
Jordan groaned. "Fine,"Jordan said, "I'll do it." "But you guys need to make sure it gets approved,"Olivia said, "You're living in the same house, on the same football team." "Right,"Jordan said.
"Night,"Olivia said. "Night,"Jordan said.
