Robbie walked aimlessly around the park. It was starting to snow and no one was out. He wasn't really paying attention to where he was going when he came across a white gazebo in the middle of the park.
Olivia needed to get out of the house. Jason was making his millionth business call that day. She walked across the street to the park to her sanctuary-the gazebo. When she just needed to think, she would go there. She was usually allowed to go there by herself.
Robbie looked up just in time to see a gorgeous blonde walk up to the gazebo. Olivia was never the type to be nervous when she met new people especially guys but the one sitting in her spot was one of the hottest guys she'd ever seen.
"I'm sorry I didn't mean to disturb you" she whispered, she was about to leave when his voice stopped her.
"Don't worry about it, I wasn't doing anything important" when she turned around he noticed her beautiful blue eyes.
"What were you doing?" she asked as she sat next to him on the stairs of the gazebo.
"Just thinking" she examined him up and down. His hair was a dark brown, he has the sexist green eyes, and even in his winter coat she could tell he had a bangin' body. Tall, dark, and handsome just they way she liked them.
"I always come here to think, it's relaxing" he couldn't take his eyes off her. She looked like an angel in her white coat with the snow falling around her.
They were taken out of their staring contest when his cell phone rang.
"Excuse me" he looked at the Caller ID and saw it was his Uncle Marco.
"Yeah…No… I'll be right there… bye." He hung up the phone and turned back to Olivia.
"I gotta go maybe I'll see you around"
"Okay" for some reason she really had a feeling she would see him again soon.
Robbie made his way over to his new boss' house. He was finally going to meet the girl he had to guard. Jason had given him the run though the whole week and he was confident he could do his job. But right now the only thing on his mind was the girl from the park. He cursed himself for not finding out her name, but he had a feeling he'd see her again.
Olivia just sat on the gazebo steps thinking about the mystery guy. God was he hot was all she could think. She was taken out of her thoughts by her cell phone ringing. She had set each person a special ring. She knew it was Jason because his was P.I.M.P by 50 Cent.
"Hello-O" she was in an extremely cheerful mood after she met Park boy, which she conveniently named him.
"Hey come home cause Robbie and Marco are going to be here any minute."
"I'll be right there" she hung up and quickly made her way home.
PH2:
Robbie and Marco had arrived at the penthouse before Olivia. The three guys were sitting silently on the couch. Robbie hadn't even noticed the pictures of Olivia on the mantle.
The three guys turned to the door when they heard the keys in the door.
"I'm ho..." She stopped talking when she locked eyes with Robbie. "Park boy what are you doing here?"
"Whose park boy?" Jason questioned.
"I'm sorry I didn't mean to call you park boy" she was slightly embarrassed but more curious as to why he was in her living room.
"Do you two know each other?"
"Sort of, we just met in the park" Robbie just stood there he didn't know what to say. He swore to Jason he wouldn't get involved with her and assured him it wouldn't even be an issue but he agreed before he met her. "But I don't even know his name that's why I called him park boy"
"Well whatever, Olivia this is your new guard Robbie Santori."
"It's nice to meet you formally Robbie" she extended her hand and he lightly shook it.
"You too" Robbie usually wasn't nervous around girls, he was definitely a player but she made him like a 13 year old girl.
"Olivia did you know Robbie is my nephew?" Marco said very proudly.
"Poor guy, why would God put someone in the same family as you!" Olivia and Marco were always teasing each other.
"While your asking God questions why don't you ask him why he would subject my poor nephew to guarding you!"
"Okay you two enough, Robbie if you don't stop them they could go back and forth for days"
"Good to know" he couldn't take his eyes off Olivia she was absolutely gorgeous. He always had a thing for blue eyes and blonde hair.
"Well I'm starving… anyone want to go to Kelly's with me?"
"Another tip she's always starving" Olivia hit Jason playfully on the chest.
"Yes I am now let's go" she grabbed her coat off the desk chair.
"Marco and I can't go we have work at the warehouse but why don't you just go with Robbie?"
"Whatever I'll see you later" she opened the door and lightly waved goodbye. Such a Carly thing Jason thought
"Good luck" Jason said to Robbie after Olivia walked out.
Kelly's:
Olivia and Robbie sat at the corner table by the jukebox barely speaking.
"I can't take the silence tell me something about yourself." She begged while shoving a fry into her mouth.
"What do you want to know?"
"I have an idea lets play 20 questions, I'll ask you something then you ask me something"
"How about 10?"
"Ok..I go first; I'll start with something simple. What is your full name?"
"Robert Anthony Santori-Robert for my mom's dad and Anthony for my father and yours?"
"Olivia Grace O'Connor Barrett- the O'Connor was my biological moms last name but I don't use that one and Barrett was my mom's last name. It's a confusing story but it's my question so do you have any brother's or sisters?"
"I have little sister, Anna, she's 10 and that's it. Do you have brother's or sisters?"
"Stop asking the same question but yes. I have an older half brother, Derek, he's 20 but I haven't seen him since I was 11 and I have a younger half sister, Ashlee, she's about 6 I think. I only met her once. Another long story but next question do your parents agree with the line of work you have chosen for yourself?"
"My dad was involved with a family in California and when he died my mom needed me to get a job and they offered me one, she doesn't want this life for me but she knows there's nothing she can do about it"
"I'm sorry about your father" she put her hand over his and gave it a light squeeze.
"Thank you but I believe it's my turn. How come you haven't seen your brother and sister in years?"
"Trust me it wasn't by choice but when I lived in France there was no way I'd be able to see them. Plus my biological mom hates my brother's father so she would never let me visit and my little sister was taken from my mom at birth so I only saw her when she was born. I wouldn't even recognize her now. I used to pray everyday that I would meet her and be a big sister but it never happened." Olivia eyes started to water as she fought to hold back the tears.
"I'm sorry about your family" he hadn't even noticed that her hand was still on his so he turned it over so they were palm to palm and he gave her hand a squeeze.
"Thanks so next question, you don't have to answer if you don't want to but how did your father die?"
"Nahh I don't mind. My dad was basically the information man, if you needed to know about any person or place you went to him. He knew to much and one night he got shot by an enemy family."
"Ohh my God, I'm sorry I asked, it's none of my business"
"It's okay really" he looked her right in the eye; she was the only person he had told about his father that wasn't family.
"How old were you?"
"It's my question but I'll let it slide. I was 15 when he died and 16 when I started working as an errand boy. But my question now, why don't you just live with your real mother or father?"
"My mother has more issues then I can even count. She's addicted to cocaine and heroin and my father is a small time drug dealer. My mom has been in and out of rehab for as long as I can remember. I don't even want to know my father. I was in a few foster homes but I eventually ended up back with her and then my grandma then my mom again. Long story short she takes me to France, leaves me there, and then Brenda adopted me"
"How many foster home were you in?"
"It's my question"
"But I answered two in a row so it's still my turn"
"Fair enough…I was in 5 foster homes, 2 I don't remember cause I was a baby, then when I was 4 I was in one with my brother until his father came to get him. I left that one when I was like 6. The next one was the best, I lived with this young married couple and I really wanted them to adopt me. Patrick would take me to the park, that's when I started playing soccer and Louise would dress me in the prettiest dresses. Next thing you know she's pregnant with twins and they just didn't have enough money for the babies and me. I ended up in a group home for like 2 months then I was back with my mother. Okay enough with this heavy conversation, no crying at the lunch table" one lone tear made its way down her face before he engulfed her into a hug. She let a few more tears travel down her face.
"It's okay to cry" she slowly pulled away from him and mustered up her best smile.
"I don't really like to talk about my past but with you it's easy" she couldn't take her eyes off his.
"I know what you mean"
Courtney's Office:
Courtney sat in her office bored out of her mind. Her meeting for 3 had been canceled so she had nothing to do. She picked up the phone and dialed a familiar number.
After two rings he picked up "Morgan"
"I. Am. So. Bored." He recognized her voice right away.
"I thought you had a meeting?" they had planned to meet for a late lunch but a last minute meeting bumped him.
"They canceled. What are you doing tonight?"
"That depends, what are you doing tonight?"
"Lets go to The Cellar, we haven't been on a real date in forever. We'll get all dressed up for a night on the town"
"It sounds good but why the dressing up?" he knew no matter what he said she was going to make him dress up but it was worth a try.
"Pick me up at 8. Bye" that was the last thing Jason heard before the line went dead.
