chapter four

"So, you're leaving now?" She packed her last package put it in Tom's car. "This is the end of our story. Thanks for everything." I hugged her tiny body. Tom smiled at me. "Thanks for taking care of her." He said. I smiled. "Actually, she took care of me but you’re welcome. Call me if you need anything."

"Don't forget to lock your door. Make sure that the lights, stoves and anything electrical are turned off b efore you leave the house."

"Okay, mom, don't worry." I said with irony.

"I'm warning you because you always forget it. Take care of yourself."

I waved at them while they were leaving to go inside. I didn't have more classes. I texted her.

Jackson: hi beautiful.

Olivia: i was so out of it until now

Olivia: but now, i'm okay.

Jackson: that means you weren't happy until now.

Jackson: what happend?

Olivia: i had a fight with my mom.

Olivia: and i think i should move out.

Olivia: and i'm exhausted, i've had the worst week of my life.

Jackson: where are you?

Olivia: I'm home.

Jackson: i can come pick you up and then we can go to eat something if you'd like.

Olivia: can we not go out? It’s too cold for that.

Olivia: but I have to go out because Jordan will come and i don't want to listen to them being all lovey-dovey.

Jackson: well...

Jackson: you can come to my place, if you'd like.

Jackson: but it would be my reason to death. but you can come.

In a way that I didn't understand, I found myself in the car on the way of her home.

Jackson: I'm here.

Olivia: alright.

She was here after two minutes. I smiled when I saw her at the door. I frowned when I noticed her limping. I went out of the car and walked fast the way to her. "What happned?" I said. "I sprained my ankle." I held her hands and helped her walk. After helping her to get in the car, I walked through to the driver's seat. "Your car is always warm, i love that!" I smiled. "Home is warmer."

"We talked but does Jenny know?"

"She moved in with her boyfriend to his house. I don't have roommate now."

"Aww, is my little bunny alone now?"

"I've always been."

"Well, you're not anymore. My middle name is trouble, there is no running away from me."

"I wouldn’t want, don't worry."

After we came to my house, I helped her sit on the couch. "Jackson, please don't the change room freshener that you use. I just love ocean scented room freshener." I got her some ointment for her ankle. "I’ve been use this since my childhood. It stins a little but heasl easily. You'll be fine until tomorrow." After wrapped her foot with a bandage, I did everything to keep her foot warm. "Which one do you prefer, hot chocolate or coffee?"

"Hot chocolate."

"So tell me, why do you want to move away?" While I was making myself coffee and her a cup of hot chocolate, I thought that it would be good for her to tell me what annoyed her. "It's just an idea that I'm thinking about. I didn't talk to Cindy about that. I mean I love her and I am truly grateful to her for letting me move in. But she has a serious relationship with Jordan. He had to live with his family and when he came, of course they would want to have special minutes. The house is too big for one person but too small for three. I'm literally sacrificing myself for them."

I sat on the couch and gave her the hot chocolate. She said, "Thank you," and took a sip. "You are right when you think about it. But you have to talk to Cindy and that is the hard part. If you ask me though, I think you shouldn't do it until this weekend. Because you have a lots of exams this week as you told me. Also, you are already stressed. Wait for your and her exams to end, then you can tell her. This would be better for both of you."

"Why is everything has to be in my stressful periods?" After she told me everything about her fight with her mom, I asked her about the picture that I saw at her house. "Olivia, I'm gonna ask you something. I saw a picture when came into your house. I think it was you. You had a cup and fancy clothes. What happened that day?" She smiled brightly. "Yes, that was me. I used to join dance tournaments. I won a championship that day. I was 7 years old."

"You haven't changed that much. Baby Olivia and Young Olivia are lookalikes."

"You know what? I think you're the only one who saya my name without any abbrevations. My friends are usually use nicknames."

"I love your name. I don't need any nickname. But if you want, I can find something."

"No, no. That's cool. Someone has to use my full name or I'll forget it somehow." I laughed. "I can call you 'Olives' if you'd like." She couldn't hold her laughter. "No way! Olivia is fine!" I made jokes about it for a few minutes. "I think we really fit together. Like... I don't know. We complete each other somehow." I knew it very well and that was everything for me. At first, I didn't think that we were gonna talk a lot like this. I smiled. She put down her cup and got up. I was trying to figure out what was she doing.

I was shocked when she put her arms around my neck. The beating of my heart echoed in my ears. I placed my arms around her waist slowly. That was our very first first hug! I inhaked her lavander scent. Her eyes were examining every single part on my face. It was as if she memorizing a poem. I didn't even hear the voices of the cars coming from outside. She was more beautiful when she was closer to me. Her big eyes, little nose and kissable lips were proportioned with her tiny face.

She was a God-made masterpiece.

She was literally perfect and I couldn't find any words to describe that. The stars in her brown eyes were shining. "O-Olivia," I said while I was staring at her lips. "Yes?" She was staring at my lips too. "C-Can you move a little further away?"

"Why?"

"Because I could kiss you any second and don't wanna do it too early."
