"Hey Russell, you don't mind if I talk to Lowri just for a sec would you."I asked him.

"Nah. Course not. "he said as I took Lowri up to Brads room.

"Never ever leave me alone with Connor around ok." I said but before I knew it Connor was walking up the stairs with Michel.

"hey libs," Connor started but I cut him off

"Olivia only my friends calls me libs."I said sharply

"yeah whatever, I heard from Michel and Daniel……errrrr….. you mind giving us privacy."he said to Lowri and Michel.

"no probs dude."Michel said as he took Lowri down the stair.

"make it quick." I said

"k well I heard you had a crush on me but apparently I blew it."he asked looking straight into my eye, I looked away. Wait a minute why should I look away I stared at him.

"yep absolutely right, you blew it, from today onwards you are my number 2# top enemy off coarsely you know who my 1#enemy is." I said. He pulled me to a room.

"libs, I really really like you like I said before."he whispered in my ear





"well like I said before you don't show it."I said pulling away.

He held tight.

"libs, the other day when you ran off just like that I was really worried that Michel did something to upset you I was just about ready to flare up but by the way he was grinning you could tell it was nothing serious back then st least. libs when you stopped talking to me I felt bad real bad, especially in the library. I never noticed but somehow without you I feel empty like I've got nothing to look forward to after school like I've got no one who will be there for me when I fall." He said ,I stared at him my heart raced and sank at the same time a voice saying you've been waiting for this moment since kindie and another saying it's all a lie.

"well I've been chasing you since kindie and if you only really notice me now ,"I was nearly in tears by now

"well then I don't know if I really mean anything."I said as I slipped my risk through his hands and ran down the stairs and bumped into someone.

"oh, sorry I wasn't watching and I'm not-"I said

"hey relax libs." I heard someone say it was Mat.



" oh right yeah err… got to go."I said dashing past Mat. Mat was following me.

"hey libs what's up." He said catching up to me now I was about practically in tears.

"er… nothing really just need some time alone."I said





"oh…."he said disappointingly

"hey you seem sad."I said as I wiped my tears

"yeah I was planning for going on a walk with you but yeah it's ok." he said

"oh I can do with a walk right now." I said smiling.

"come on lets go."I said as I grabbed him by the hand and took him outsides Brads house.

"hey there's a beach round the corner you want to go."I asked

"sure." He said he took my hand, as we got to the beach we saw a dog.

"oh look at that dog do you his lost his way?" I asked as I picked him up. You could tell he was only a puppy I took him to the lamppost so I could see what his name was he didn't have a name tag or a color he was a border collie.

"oh my gosh I think he a stray." I said as I took my jacket of and put it round him. It was freezing but at least the puppy wouldn't be cold he hardly had any fur on him.

"hey it's freezing." Mat said as took my hand and help me down to the ground.

"I think I'll name him Karlos just for now." I said as I leaned on Mat. Karlos snuggled up underneath my jacket.we spent ages looking at the stars.

"we should be going it's about time they got into the pool."Mat said.





"oh I'll take Karlos and ask if brad will mind me taking him into the house, I just can't leave him here all by him self he'll get a cold and" mat cut me off again.

"it's ok libs." he said as he helped me up.

"you worry too much he added as I was just on my feet.

"that's nice to know, come on."I said holding Karlos tightly as we got off the beach. As we got there Jenni saw me and came over and said

"the love birds has arrived ,not interested eh? Yeah right."
