A/N:

If anyone finds that other book or the author of that book (the one I showed a pic of in the last chapter who is copying me) please message me.

. . .

Josh's POV:

I've been thinking and maybe Olivia and I are just not truly meant to be together. I'll always care for her and have a special place in my heart for her, but maybe this whole Harry situation is a way of proving that we need to move on.

Now I'm not saying we would stop hanging out, we would just do it in a platonic way. I've tried convincing Liv this relationship with Harry isn't healthy, but she doesn't want to hear it. So I'm not going to waste my time.

Sofia came to me yesterday and told me she saw Liv crying outside and managed to convince her to get out of her relationship. The truth is I think she's just telling us that so we leave her alone. I don't see how I'm supposed to get her to break up with him.

Maybe if she showed some sign that she still cares for me I'd try harder, but for the time being I don't want to push her into anything or make her think the reason I don't want her dating Harry is because I want her to be with me. I just want her to break up with Harry because it's an abusive relationship.

If Olivia comes to me asking for help of course I'll help her. But I'm not going to reach out to her.

But hey we just need to "trust the process".

. . .

Olivia's POV:

Ok. Today's the day. I'm finally going to straight up tell the cast aout mine and Harry's relationship. And to be honest, I'm terrified.

I know they basically have all guessed what's going on, but they don't know any details for sure. I just can't have this sort of weight on my shoulders anymore and maybe they can help me get out of this.

I know it's gonna be hard but I think I can't handle this relationship anymore. I talked to my mum and she managed to get me to somewhat believe that this isn't healthy.

I'm still super hesitant to tell everyone, but hopefully this works out. But what if they're mad at me? What if they're disappointed in me and don't want to talk to me anymore? WAIT what if they just give up on me?!

I texted Sofia asking where everyone is, she told me they're in the cafeteria. Why does everything happen in the cafeteria?! Ok Olivia you got this. Just be straight up. They all care about you and just want to help you.

At least I think they do.

. . .

Joshua's POV:

The cast and I were watching TV when we saw Olivia slowly walk down the stairs towards us.

"U-um hey guys can I talk to you about something?" she muttered timidly.

"Yeh of course babes!" Dara spoke up.

"Here, come sit," Julia encouraged.

"W-what're you guys doing?" Liv stuttered.

"Oh we're just watching some TV. So what did you want to talk about?" Frankie jumped in.

"It's about Harry," Olivia said, sitting down on one of the arm chairs next to Sofia.

You could see the relief in everyone's eyes. Hopefully she finally realised she's in a toxic relationship.

"What about him?" I asked.

She took a deep breath before saying, "I um, I think I'm in an abusive relationship," she admitted looking at her hands in her lap.

"We know," I muttered.

"So what are you going to do about it?" Julia asked.

"I was hoping you guys could help me?"

"Of course," Sofia said with a smile.

"So you guys aren't mad at me?"

"Liv," I started, grabbing her attention.

"Joshy?"

"Liv we could never be mad at you."

"Thank you. All of you," she said looking at me directly.

"Always."
