Chapter 36
The next day Wen, who had slept over at Olivia's house was the first one to wake up, as the first beams of sunlight made their way into the bedroom of the Lemonade Mouth lead singer. He watched her sleeping peacefully next to him for quite a while, with a big smile on his face and thought: *I still can't believe that I have this wonderful girl by my side, I really hope that's all not a dream I soon wake up from* He then softly touched with the back of his hand her right cheek, waking her in the sweetest way possible. Olivia had a big smile on her face, loving every minute of the way that Wen's hand softly caressed her cheek, slowly she finally opened her eyes and said: "Morning, did you have a good night as I did?"
"It was wonderful Olive; you are a very good pillow." He answered with a smirk on his face, got up into a sitting position and started to tickle her at her weak spot what resulted into endless fits of laughs from Olivia, making her cry out of pure joy she had. Meanwhile Mo and the rest of her family were already sitting together in the kitchen to have breakfast together as every morning, when it either was weekend and her father didn't have to work or he had a vacation from his job for two weeks. Her father still was totally worried that something would happen to Mo during the summer tour, even if Mo and her mother had really tried to assured him that the adult that would accompany them on the tour this summer would make sure that they would be save.
Mo really hated it, that her father sometimes still treated her like a little kid but she was definitely a teenager now and he had to recognize that at some point. But on the other hand, she herself was still worried about one thing: Scott, their ways hadn't parted in a good way thanks to Jules and since then none of them had taken the initiative to straighten things out between them because she was really sure that he had treated her differently since the end of their relationship. Should she maybe call him, to talk and make sure that there weren't any hard feelings because of how bad things had ended? Maybe today would be a good opportunity since there was no band rehearsals scheduled for today because she really wanted to stay friends with the guitarist of Lemonade Mouth. Back at Olivia's house, she and Wen were still playfully fighting on the bed till the blonde lead singer finally said: "Ok stop, I give up please don't tickle me anymore." Wen stopped and towered with a triumphant grin over her, but then suddenly Olivia took him down to switch positions, grinned at him and said: "Ha! Who's laughing now? It looks like I won"
They continued to lay there on the bed for a while still in their pajamas; Olivia's tightly cuddled to Wen's muscular body and her head resting on his chest. At the Yamada residence at the same time, Stella had been already done with breakfast since she got up earlier than usual this morning, what had surprised mother a little bit but Stella had decided to not yet reveal, why she had such a sleepless night: her first love, Charlie, the drummer of Lemonade Mouth and now her first boyfriend she ever had. This whole thing was still totally weird, the butterflies she felt when she was now near him were really confusing and so new that she didn't exactly knew sometimes how to act on them. Stella's mother had clearly noticed that something was different in the behavior of her daughter but she decided not to push anything, because she would definitely come to her when she was ready. "Good morning you two, I hope you slept well here last night Wen." Olivia's grandma greeted the two teenagers as they entered the kitchen to have breakfast.
"Good morning Miss White, I have slept fine, thanks for asking." Wen replied and then sat down on the chair at the kitchen table right next to Olivia, he softly squeezed her hand one more time before he let go of it to make himself some breakfast. Olivia's grandma watched that whole scene play out in front of her for little while and wished back her times as a teenager when she had been totally in love with her first ever boyfriend. Mo was later finally sitting alone in her room, next to the phone, still contemplating about the question if she should call Scott or not. After a couple of minutes she finally picked up the receiver, dialed Scotts home phone number and waited for somebody to pick up on the other end of the line.
After a few dial tones she almost was ready to give up but then finally Scott picked it up and said: "Hey Mo what's up? I didn't expect you to call this early." Mo now felt a little uncomfortable, because maybe she had interrupted something but then she put those thoughts away quickly and answered: "We really need to talk, I just have the feeling that things aren't the same between us anymore since how bad our relationship has ended and no matter what my father says I really want to stay friends with you and since this big summer tour is in a few weeks, I really don't want any hard feelings to stand between us."
Scott had to sink let all of that sink in first but then he finally answered: "In some way it's also my fault that our relationship has ended that way and I really wish that I could all take this back but unfortunately I can't and I really want to stay friends with you too. I just was that distant because I didn't know if things could be back to normal between us after that thing with Jules."
At the breakfast table Olivia and Wen talked a lot about the upcoming summer tour and they both were excited but at the same time very nervous about it because it would be a much bigger audience then they had performed in front of in the past.
