Chapter 10
"Come on in." Olivia said opening the door. Charlie nodded and walked inside.
"We can talk in the living room." She said. After they settled onto the couch Charlie spoke. "Look, I know you're mad at me." Olivia rolled her eyes. "Really?"
"Come on Olivia." He told her.
"Sorry, I'll be quiet." She said.
"You have every right to be mad. I did something you told me not to do." He said. "But I do care about you and I'm sorry." Olivia stared at her hands. "I know you are. And I know you care about me. I care about you too."
"So do you forgive me?" Charlie asked hopefully. Olivia remained silent playing with the pillow on the couch.
"So he thinks I could be good? You must have talked me up" she asked breaking the silence.
"Yeah." Charlie said warily. "I told him you had promise."
"You know I really should be thanking you." Olivia said.
"Come again?" Charlie asked surprised.
"I never would have worked up the nerve." She said. "And I probably would never have actually tried out."
"So..." Charlie asked.
"So thank you." She said giving him a hug. After they broke apart Charlie looked at her. "Are we okay?" Olivia nodded. "Just listen to me next time I tell you something okay?"
"Whatever you say." He said giving her a kiss. THE END
