Sorry for the delay! I'm getting really sucky with updating and I'm really sorry. Hopefully this chapter will make up for that. Get ready for some more drama !

It was six o'clock when they started barbecuing and hanging out at their beach. What better way to spend the fourth of July then spending it on the beach with loved ones.

Olivia was tanning on the sand with Jen, Andy's sister. She was in her red bikini that showed off her amazing body. Andy couldn't look away.

They didn't get to talk the whole day and Andy figured he would give her some space tonight. He hurt her in a big way and she deserved some space from him.

Olivia, on the other hand, was feeling like Andy was just ignoring her. Sure she told him to leave her alone but, it would still be nice to know that he still cares. He H HGH did cheat on her so maybe doesn't anymore.

"So Olivia, are you enjoying it here?" Jen asked as she rubbed more sunscreen on her body.

Olivia looked over at her and smiled. "I'm having a great time. It feels nice to be around your family."

"Well we're your family too."

Olivia smiled and nodded.

Andy was grilling some hamburgers when Olivia and Jen walked over to the table. Andy put a hamburger on a plate and handed it to Jen. Then he turned to Olivia. "Liv?" he asked.

"No thanks," she said then went over to the pasta salad and steak.

They all sat down and started eating together. They were all having a good time and Olivia was really enjoying herself at the moment.

After dinner, they all were sitting on the beach, talking and getting ready to watch the fireworks. Olivia and Andy were both sitting on the blanket next to each other, neither saying anything to each other.

It was awkward but, they didn't bring much attention to themselves. They didn't want a fun night to turn into a bad night for anyone, even if it was for them.

Andy cleared his throat but, as soon as he was about to say something, the fireworks began. Olivia looked over at him then looked away. They would have to talk later, now was not the time.

Two hours later, the fireworks were finished and Olivia and Andy were the only ones still outside. They were sitting quietly in the sand all alone. Neither knew what to say to each other but, neither wanted to walk away without saying anything either. Andy was scared of more rejection from her so he kept quiet.

"Want to go to bed?" Olivia asked, quietly.

He just shook his head.

"Want to go inside?" she asked again.

He shook his head one more time.

"Well are we just going to sit here the whole night in silence?" she asked, frustrated.

He turned to look at her. "What do you want me to say? No matter what I tell you, you're still going to feel the same way about me."

She sighed and looked at him. "I know you may think I hate you and I know you may think that I don't want to be with you but, that couldn't be any further from the truth. I hate myself for still wanting to be with you but, what am I supposed to do?" She felt tears streaming down her face.

He put his arm around her and was surprised that she let him. "I know how hard this is for you and it kills me to know that I caused all this shit between us. I want nothing more than to be with you and to spend the rest of my life with you but, I can't make that decision for you. Whatever you want to do, I will respect your choice. Just know that I will love you no matter what happens."

He kissed her forehead and held her closer as she started crying.

"I'm sorry. I'm so sorry," he whispered.

After a few moments, Olivia wiped away her tears and stood up. "Let's go to bed." She held her hand out to him. He smiled and reached for it then they headed inside.

As soon as they got inside, his mother went up to him. "Andy, can we talk for a minute?"

"Uh, sure." He turned to Olivia, "I'll be up in a minute."

Olivia nodded and smiled at his mother, before walking up the stairs.

Donna led Andy to the kitchen and they both sat on the table.

"What's going on?" she asked.

"What are you talking about?"

"With Olivia. Are you two having problems?" she continued.

"It's normal mom, every couple has problems."

"It just broke my heart to see her the last two days. It's like she's really hurting and I know something's wrong after seeing her crying like that. So please tell me what happened between you two?"

He looked down at the floor. He decided telling his mom the truth was for the best. "I know you're going to hate me when I tell you this but, you should know the truth." He took a deep breath and continued,
"Well we've been fighting a lot lately about work and stuff and I made a huge mistake that ruined our relationship."

"What did you do?"

He cleared his throat. "I slept with an ex-girlfriend of mine."

"You what?" she exclaimed. "Andrew, how could you do that?"

"I know I messed up and it was the biggest mistake of my life."

"So you're still together?"

"I don't know. She broke up with me as soon as she found out but, now we're talking and we'll see what happens. I'm really sorry mom. I know you raised me better than this."

"How is she holding up?" his mother asked, caringly.

"Not too good but, it's to be expected. I really messed everything up."

She held his hand and lifted his chin so he could look at her. "Make it right."

He nodded. She let go of his hand and headed up the stairs.

He was going to make it right, no matter what it takes.
