Livin on a High Wire Chapter 9

Disclaimer: I don't own Lemonade Mouth!

Lunch came around fast, and to fast for Olivia. She was dreading the moment all day and now it was finally here. It wasn't that she was afraid that they'd be mad about Spencer and her dating, but because she lied to them in the first place. She took her time walking to the cafeteria. She stopped for a second scanning the large room for her friends. Wen must've found her because he waved to her. Olivia had a bad feeling in the pit of her stomach. But it wasn't because of what she was about to tell her friends, but because of the person who was behind them, Spencer. She looked back at the band, all of them were waving to her now. Her eyes bounced from Spencer to Lemonade Mouth when finally she didn't know what to do. She took off running to the girls restroom. She heard faint screams from her friends calling after her. She stopped at the sinks and leaned over as if she was about to vomit. She didn't she was just catching her breath. By now she had tear stained cheeks and her eyes had become red. She looked up in the mirror, disgraced with girl she was face to face with.

"Olivia, are you in there?" it was Mo. Olivia wiped excess tears that were trickling down her face when Stella and Mo came on either side of her. Mo rubbed her back to comfort her.

"You ok, Liv?" Mo asked sincerely. Olivia sniffed and pushed a strand of hair out of her eyes and tucked it behind her ear.

"I'm ok, I guess. Its just-" Olivia was interrupted by an outburst of voices that was coming from right outside the bathroom door. They exchanged curious glances. The voices continued. It sounded like Wen, Charlie and Scott. They walked out to investigate.

oXo (Meanwhile)

Wen, Charlie, and Scott decided to wait outside for the 3 girls. Since it would be weird for guys to be in the girls restroom. It would be even more awkward if other girls walked in. You only make that mistake once. They waited in silence until a voice broke it. "Did Olivia White run in there?" The trio turned around to find a boy with dark hair and tall standing before them. Wen became cautious and worried as to why the boy knew Olivia "Who are you?" He asked.

"Spencer Walsh." The boy replied.

The Lemonade Mouth boys exchanged glances, each recalling the story Olivia had told them and automatically knew he wasn't a good guy. The three of them blocked the door. "Who are you?" Spencer questioned. The boys took turns sharing their names, Wen being last.

"So your Wen," Spencer began, crossing his arms, "Olivia has mentioned you. A lot actually."

Wen smiled to knowing Olivia has talked about him. Spencer caught Wen's smiled and became suspicious. "Your not dating my Olivia, are you?" Wen became angry. "What do you mean, your Olivia?"

Wen took a step closer to Spencer but before things could get out of hand, Charlie stepped in front of Wen and Scott took over. "I think you should go," he said.

"Not before I see Olivia."

"Just leave us alone!" Charlie shouted.

But before anyone could say anything else, the girl's restroom door opend bumping into Wen a little. Olivia was the first to walk out, "Oh, sorry!" she smiled shyly at him but it quickly faded when she saw Spencer. "What are you doing here?" she demanded. She walked out further, next to Wen, so Stella and Mo could get out. They both recognized Spencer and quickly realized what was going on.

"I came to see you," Spencer said taking a step closer to her, but Wen stepped infront, being protective of Olivia. Spencer moved to an angle where she could see him. She turned her head away but he continued anyway. "Olivia, ever since I saw you the other day in New York everything came back to me. I knew I had to find you and tell you that, I still love you. I want you back, Liv"

At this point, everyone was staring at Olivia. She opened her mouth but nothing came out. She looked form each of her friends who were waiting to hear what she would say. Then she looked over at Wen. She could see the hurt in his eyes and this broke her heart. She knew what she wanted. She turned back to Spencer, now knowing what she wanted to say.

"Spencer," she began, "we dated a long time ago, and to be honest I only say you as a friend. I was just trying to convince myself I loved you, to try to convince myself that I wasn't really in love with another guy. And to this day, I am still in love with that same guy. But I blew it, ok. Theres only one guy I really want to be with, and because of you I cant." Tears were streaming down her cheeks. She barely choked out her last words. "I'm sorry." She whisperecd. Olivia pushed past Mo and Stella and walked away. This time no one followed her. They knew her well enough to give her some time. Olivia didn't even realize she finally admitted to herself she really did love Wen, but because of this whole thing with Spencer, he'd probably never talk to her again.
