Ky: So, I've kind of decided to go ahead and make this a longer story- probably going to kill myself with all of these long stories… Although, YDKYTWID is going to be longer than Our Story, because I've decided to keep it going through Leaky Con and then a little after. I've also just posted up an OC submission story I'm excited for… Our Story is almost done, though; like two more chapters of the angst, then one chapter for Starship, then two for after the play. I'm sorry to see any of them end, but it needs to be done… This one, well I have an idea in my head on how I want to get it done, I'm just not sure how it will work out with my classes starting up soon, too. We'll see, I'll try to keep at least one chapter a week, for every story, see where it takes me. Anyway, enough rambles, onward!

Disclaimer: I don't own anything except Emma, and the plot. Enjoy!

Chapter Two: Loving Olivia

"Jim, you've been staring at your phone for nearly two hours…" Emma said to the taller man. He glanced up at the girl, taller right now only because he was sitting and she was standing on a chair to grab scripts from a high shelf. She was teetering precariously on the edge, and Jim, knowing that Joe would kill him if Emma died or got hurt under his watch, stood and held the chair while she grabbed the scripts." And no offense, but this class we agreed to teach together is starting in like five minutes… And while I don't really mind taking the first class because I made this lesson plan, I would love some help…"

"I'm sorry Emma, I'm waiting on a text…" Jim said, his ears turning red at how obvious that sounded. As if to prove his point, Emma gave him a knowing smile and shook her head. She began heading towards the stage with the large stack of scripts, and Jim came up beside her, taking most of the large stack and helping her. They began their class- a lot more kids than they had thought would come had made an appearance –and Emma took charge.

"Alright, guys, no beating around the bush with fundamentals, or ice breakers," Emma said as she paced the stage in front of the group," You're all here, which means that you're interested in acting, and this isn't a beginners course, so I'm not treating it like one. You each have a copy of Alice in Wonderland, and I want you to pair up. Pick two characters and define their relationship; then, change that relationship and write a new scene, one to add to the play that explains this new relationship. Think romantic, mortal enemies, secret lovers, even best friends; something that differs from the play, something interesting. Take the rest of today to figure that out and write a scene, then we'll perform on Monday; I warn you, though, if you don't impress me with your ideas, if they're flat or boring, I'll make you re do the assignment."

The kids set off, after that, and Emma plopped down to sit beside Jim, when she saw they were actually working.

"For someone so tiny," Jim commented," You sure know how to take charge and terrify a bunch of High School kids."

"It's a gift," Emma grinned. She glanced down at the same time that Jim did, when his phone buzzed with a message: "Sorry, I slept in late because I was studying for the test in my online class! Are we still on for tonight? :) –O". Emma grinned and leaned back against her arms as Jim grinned and hopped to answer the new message." Looks like you got that text."

Jim couldn't even be bothered by the smirk tone in her voice.

"Hey," Olivia grinned as she opened the door for Jim. Her apartment wasn't tiny, nor was it amazingly large; it was cozy and nice size for one person. The living/ kitchen/ dining area was done in warm golden hues and had a large book shelf filled with VHS and DVD cases, as well as a few books. Jim handed Olivia the small but cute bouquet of daisies and took the time to study the movies while she put the flowers in a vase." You know, daisies are probably the most least loved flowers in the world, and they're one of my favorite… Of course, I'm biased because it's also my middle name… My mother was Grace Rose, my older sisters were Allie Fern, Miranda Iris, and I'm Olivia Daisy… Ugh she couldn't have picked a worse flower… Of course, Emma and I used to say she was like a long lost sister because she's Emma Marigold…"

Jim smiled as she reappeared next to him, watching his eyes travel over her movie collection. He took the opportunity to study her outfit and appreciate how pretty the girl was. She wore a pair of comfy looking blue and purple plaid shorts and a purple sweater, over a pair of blue fuzzy slippers that made Jim smile. Her hair was pulled up into a pony tail with a headband keeping the stray wisps of hair out of her eyes. She looked comfy, but also good; Jim had to take a moment to appreciate her very nice legs, but shook this off and held out the bag of Chinese takeout she had sent him to get.

"Awesome, feast and movie," Olivia said with a grin.

"Best date I can think of," Jim smiled back. They settled themselves in with plates of the food and with some older horror films. As the night moved on, they bounced around Olivia's extensive library of genre and types of films, and before Jim knew it, it was nearly one in the morning." I should get going… I promised Joe I would go out with the group tomorrow morning… Of course, morning for them usually means noon, anyway… You want to join us? We're just hanging out in the park for a while, may play some football or go out to eat…"

"Do you want me to go?" Olivia asked shyly. Jim glanced down at the two of them, sitting close together on the couch, her hand inches from his, and smiled. He leaned over and scooped her hand up into his larger one, tangling their fingers together and smiling when she glanced up at him.

"I'd love if you came, but only if you want to," Jim said," I like spending time with you… And god knows my phone has been dedicated to our text conversations lately… Emma doesn't know what to do with me because I'm checking to see if you replied every five seconds…" Olivia giggled and blushed at this." So, yes, if you want I would love having you there tomorrow…"

"I'll be there…" Olivia smiled. She stood, pulling him up with her," C'mon, you have to get home, and I need to sleep so I can take that test in the morning and meet you…" She led him to her door, their hands still together, and turned suddenly, once at the door. Jim didn't stop in time with her sudden movement, and his hands flew to stop himself, leaving him with a hand on either side of her on the door, her back against the wood." Um… I had a good time tonight?"

"Me too…"

"We should make it a weekly ordeal…"

"We should…"

"I have lots of movies, and Fridays are good because I don't have class or work-"

"Olivia, I'm going to kiss you now, okay?"

"Okay…"

Jim leaned down and pressed his mouth to hers, gently; her lips left a scorching heat where they met his, and his hands landed at her hips, as if to steady himself. Her hands trailed up his chest, languidly trailing over the crook of his neck where his collar bone was. The kiss was not overly sexy, or hard, but it was lazy and slow, and sent chills up Jim's spine. He pulled back slowly, keeping his eyes closed a second longer to linger in the feeling.

"I'll text you when and where to meet us?" Jim asked quietly. Olivia nodded and leaned up for another slow kiss, her hands curling around the back of his neck to tug him closer. This kiss led to a half dozen more, and Jim's fingers were dipping under the back of her sweater, to feel the soft skin there, when he yanked back." I'm going to spontaneously combust if we keep this up… That or I won't ever leave…"

"I'm not sure I want you to…" Olivia admitted. Jim smiled; giving her one final kiss that left his lips begging for more, and scorched from the easy heat of it.

"I'll text you okay?" Jim said. Olivia nodded, letting him go, and waving him off as he left the apartment. Once out on the street, he did his own little happy dance, his entire body alight and awake from the events before. He really liked this girl, and in the back of his mind he remembered to thank Emma for introducing them; maybe he would buy her favorite candy… He thought of the kiss and how happy Olivia made him, so far. Yeah, Emma was getting about ten pounds of Red Vines and Gummy Bears…

Ky: FEEL THE FILLER FLUFF! There will be some angst, sooner or later, probably add some back story to Olivia, and see what I can wrangle into a chapter… I don't know yet, I'm really writing so that I can distract myself because freaking A Very Potter Senior Year is happening and I'm not there ;_;

Anyway, love you al, review please, TUp chapter next, after some food for Kyra.
