Olivia's POV

1 week until Raph's death anniversary. I don't know what will happen...... Will I relapse or will I not feel anything anymore? I don't know..... And I hope that it won't get worse. I can't afford that. Especially with my witch of a mom is on my heels threatening to take my babies away. I need to go to a f*cking therapist sooner or later. But... I don't want to. I've put a band aid on those wounds (I think) and I don't want to re-open it. Not now.

I was put out of my thoughts when someone knocked the door. I opened it to see Owen standing there with a grin. I smiled back.

"Supp Olive!!!!" He said raising his hands for a five. To which I laughed and returned. I had to stand on my tippy toe to reach his hand. No I'm not short. He's just a giant.

"So what brings you here? " I asked him, his face turned serious.
"We still haven't talked about the kiss." dang it... I was trying to avoid that topic.....
I looked towards the stairs. The kids won't come down. They are still awestruck with the scrap book. They've been seeing the same pictures for awhile now.
"Owen, I'm sorry I kissed you. I don't know.... What took over me. I was sad. Really sad. And for some reason I believed that you would give me some happiness. I thought I liked you too..... But......." I dragged. How do I say this boy that.. I don't like him like that, and the infactuation I felt towards him was because of the similaties in his behavior with my husband?

" You still haven't moved on from your husband...... " his eyebrows furrowed and I nodded slowly.
"I'm sorry. I really am. I thought I liked you.... But..... I realised it was just a sort of coping mechanism? Your personality reminds me soo much of him..... And I- I'm really sorry... For kissing you." I said fiddling with my fingers.

Owen cupped my cheeks and made me look at him in the eyes, he smiled.

" Hey it's fine. Really. I get that. And it's fine. I will be there beside you while you try to move on. Like I said before I would be right here, helping you with your demons." he said as he kissed my forehead.

" I don't know if I can move on.... Owen.... It just hurts..... In here. " I said as I fisted my fingers and slowly beat on my chest, trying to get rid of the pain.
Owen was quick enough to remove my hands and take me into a long embrace which I accepted gratefully. I was now sobbing into his chest while he rubbed circles on my back.

After staying like that for 15 minutes or so. I pulled out.

"I'm sorry... I'm just.... My head is messed up." I said chuckling.

"nahh it's fine..." Owen smiled.

"Hey you wanna go out with me?" Owen asked out of the blue as we watched Fast and The furious.

"Owen I told you I'm not rea-" he cut me off.
"Not a date.. But. Date. But with a friend kinda date."he blabbered. And I chuckled.
" OK. Fine. But what about the kids? "I didn't want to leave them alone.

" Mom will take care of them or we could take them with us." he said and I nodded happily. I didn't want to leave the kids.

" So you don't mind if I bring the kids with rite? " he shook his head.
" Plus. I love their company. So it's cool."Owen said chuckling. And I nodded.

" So what kinda clothing should I wear?"
" Casual will do." I nodded my head.
