*friendship test

Josh and Olivia stood awkardly on the set as people buzzed and dashed around them, prepping them for the shoot. Leaning over and whispering, Josh pointed out to Olivia that in all the chaos, they hadn't actually explained what they were doing. Olivia giggled at this then walked forward to a producer, 

"Sorry, could you explain to us what we're doing." She asked politely. The aforementioned producer stared at them both gormlessly, rolled her eyes and walked away. Darting her head between Josh and the woman walking away, Olivia looked confused. "Um.." She muttered to herself, "I'm confused. Did I do something wrong?" Josh walked up behind her and asked the woman standing by the camera, 

"Hey, are we allowed to know what we're doing?" He asked cautiously, 

"Yeah of course," She said with a smile, "Let me guess, you asked Linda. Sorry about her." Olivia laughed softly and awkwardly. "So, you're doing the Glamour friendship test. You answer some questions about your friendship seperately, then you do four tasks and then an overall review of the experience." Scanning their faces, she continued. "Any questions?" Olivia shook her head and Josh put his thumbs up. "Cool, we start in 10 seconds." Josh and Olivia hurried back to the set and smoothed out their clothes and checked their mics. "Olivia, you're up first. 3, 2, 1 Action!"

"Hi, I'm Olivia Rodrigo from High School Musical The Musical The Series and I'm doing the Glamour friendship test with Joshua Bassett." Looking over to him with a smile, she prepared for the next question. 

"Hey, I'm Joshua Bassett, Olivia and I are doing a friendship test for Glamour"

How did you guys meet?

"Well, funny story. Josh thinks we met at the auditions when I tested for Nini with him but we actually met multiple times before that. We met when I interviewed him and at a couple Disney Channel parties." Olivia Laughed.

"Now, I know Olivia has said we met before, but I don't remember it. Sorry Liv! I have the memory of a goldfish I swear." He stuck his tongue out at her glare from off screen, "You can't see it but right now she is sending me the craziest death stare. Well, when I re met Olivia at the auditions, all I could think was Wow, she is crazy talented. She's an amazing singer, songwriter and actress. She was perfect for Nini and it was just obvious from the second I saw her it was meant to be." He blushed, 

"Aww Joshy" She crooned from off stage. "I forgive you for forgetting we met." He held his arms out expectantly. She walked over from her position by the camera and hugged him tightly. 

Describe your relationship.

"Umm..." Olivia trailed off, "He's one of my favourite people in the world." 

"Best friends. Co-workers. And I'd just like to say right now, I'm her biggest fan." Josh grinned as Olivia giggled from off stage. 

What have they taught you?

"Josh has taught me to be confident in myself and my abilities. I was really struggling with my perception of myself and believing I was good enough or my music was good enough and he really helped me." She mumbled, twiddling her fingers and avoiding eye contact with anyone or the camera.

"Can I say everything? I'd be lost without her. Maybe that's just because I don't have much common sense. As I mention in my new song. Go check it out!" He winked and pointed down the camera lens. "Or maybe it's because she grounds me" He shrugged, with a sudden air of seriousness that made him a bit uncomfortable and Olivia unsure on how to react.

What do you bond over?

"Music." Olivia said simply,

Josh smiled, "But also High School Musical, both not being able to danc-"
