I hope you enjoyed the confessions. This is why Lucas had to have his accident. To push them to this moment.
Olive's P.O.V.It's been a week since Lucas' accident. A week since we both admitted how much we loved one another. I have been taking care of Lucas as he heals. He broke his dominant arm. Although it's adorable to watch him try to do things with his left hand, it's also sad. I end up helping him with a lot of things, which he both appreciates and doesn't like.He's a proud man like most and all he wants is to be better already so he doesn't have to depend on me so much. I have been staying at his apartment all week, but it was time for me to go back to my flat. I missed it, and I needed more clothes. Of course, Lucas tagged along. I didn't mind at all.You would think that we would have grown tired of one another after a whole week beside each other, but it was very much the opposite. We wanted more of one another, and the thought of being away from each other, killed us. I was happy to know that I wasn't the only one of us that felt this way."I'm almost done with your freshman year
Olive's P.O.V. Time seems to fly by when you're actually enjoying life. Halloween was this weekend already and Lucas and I will have been dating for a month now. I felt giddy thinking about it. Lucas and I have not spent a single night away from each other since his accident. We alternate between his apartment and my flat. We each have our own drawer, although I honestly have 2 drawers and a quarter of his closet at his place. "We have to match, Rose," Lucas argued with me over our Halloween costumes. "Do we really have to dress up? Aren't we too old for that?" "Take that back. We are never too old," he argued back, making me smile with his playful tone. "Please, Rose, dress up with me?" He gave me those eyes again, the ones that always seem to melt away my resolve. He was not playing fair. "Fine," I sighed. "But nothing that's going to have me half naked." "Never," he shook his head. His cast was finally due to be removed this Friday, just in time for Halloween. He was excited
Olive's P.O.V. Julius stood before me dressed as prince charming. As if. I felt his eyes roam my body, and I hated the fact that he knew what I looked like naked. Hated that he knew what I felt like from the inside. I should have known he'd be here. He likes going to these kinds of parties."Leave me alone, Julius.""Oh come on, Liv. You're all alone, just let me keep you company. I miss you." He tried to grab my hand, but I pulled it away."You wouldn't have to miss me if you wouldn't have cheated. How many times, and with how many people did you cheat?" I asked him the question that had been plaguing my mind since I found him deep inside Clover."Just once. Just that one time," he lied with confidence."You could tell me the truth, Julius. It's not like I'll ever take you back anyway.""It is the truth," he lied again, only making me angrier."Go away, Julius," I sighed."Come on, Liv. You shouldn't be alone here.""She's not alone." Lucas reemerged behind him.Julius took a step b
Olive's P.O.V. The question hung in the air for several minutes. I knew I needed to say something, but all coherent thoughts escaped me. My mind raced as it thought of what my answer should be. I love him, and he loves me. We laid ourselves bare for one another after his accident, but we've only been together about a month. That's too short a time to move in together isn't it? Yet, somehow I just wanted to blurt out yes. I mean we stay together every night anyway. What's the difference? "No," I started, and the hurt on his face killed me. "Move in with me instead. I don't want to lose my mom's flat as my home. Live here with me, where she wanted me to be." The joy that rekindled in his eyes made my heart swell. He propped himself on his elbows over me again, kissing me so deeply that he stole my breath away. He smiled down at me, a smile I had yet to see before. The happiness radiated off of us in waves. I know everyone will say it's way too early, but it feels right. We love each o
Olive's P.O.V."Are you sure you're okay?" Lucas asked from the other side of the bathroom door."I'm fine, go away. I don't want you to hear me puke," I said with my head hanging over the toilet.I woke up feeling very nauseous this morning. I attribute it to the hot dog I ordered yesterday. Never order the hot dog. I know that."Rose, let me in. I don't care about that," Lucas begged from behind the locked door."No way, it's disgus-" my sentence was cut short by my vomit.The nausea faded lightly after I had spilled the contents of my stomach into the toilet. I flushed, rinsing my mouth out in the sink before brushing my teeth. I opened the door to find a very worried Lucas."I'm fine. It's probably just that hot dog I ate.""Lay back down. I'm taking care of you today," he commanded, making me smile lightly.I loved it when he took care of me. I did as he said, because being in bed sounded nice, especially with this nausea. Lucas brought me crackers, ginger ale, and water. He had
Lucas' P.O.V. Rose was in class right now with plans to eat lunch with Hailey later. I'm taking this time to read her journals, and then hang out with Leo. Work is taken care of, having stayed up late to get it done. I hated wasting time with Rose, so I have started to work at night while she sleeps. I'm awake then anyway. I decided to read inside the small cafe on campus that Rose took me to one morning. This use to be my favorite spot to get work done when I was attending here. The smell of coffee is soothing and has always helped me to focus better. I opened up Rose's journal almost to the end of her sophomore year now. It seemed with Ian around she was able to handle high school better. She was still picked on, or messed with, but Ian was always by her side to comfort her or defend her. I do think that Rose's first love is not her ex Julius, but this Ian guy instead. I hate to admit it, but I am a bit jealous of Ian. He was able to rescue her back then. I wish I could have. I w
Olive's P.O.V. Lunch with Hailey went great. I was scared to tell her that Lucas had moved in with me over the weekend, but I was stupid to be. She was so happy for me, she yelled so loud in excitement that everyone turned to look at us like we were crazy. We spoke about it for a little while and by the end of it Hailey had washed away all my doubts and insecurities about it being so soon. This is why Hailey is the absolute best. She never judges, just advises. Class felt like it was dragging on, maybe because it was the last one of the day, and I know Lucas will be waiting for me. I missed him terribly already even though we just saw each other this morning. There's a moment when a person just becomes your entire life, and I feel like I've had that moment already. Lucas is everything I think about, all the time, at every moment. He's everything to me. "Don't forget to work on your projects now so you won't be trying to finish them over Thanksgiving break." Professor Devarti advised
Lucas' P.O.V. Cooking with Rose was lots of fun, but the clean up was even better. I seemed to be unable to contain myself around her as I leaned her over the counter after we cleaned up and slammed into her again. She didn't seem to mind through her moans of pleasure, allowing me to cum inside her this time. When she turned to face me she looked so in love that my heart almost stopped. Her beautiful icy blue eyes captivated me like no other. It's hard to describe the warm joy that she makes me feel by just looking at her. I love this woman too much for my own good. She could destroy me if she wanted to, but I know she won't. She's my Rose and I had finally climbed past her thorns and to the center of her soft petals. "I love you, Olive, so very much." I wanted her to hear the sincerity in my voice as I said. Notice the seriousness and the joy in which I told her. I only ever used her real name when I wanted her to know how serious I was being. She looked up at me past those long l
