I look at him and he looks like a tomato. Does he? Like me? Hm..
" alrighty then leavee I can handle this thanks for guarding me bye bye! " I said pushing him away. When he reached the door, he turns around and see me smiling.
" I.. what? " he said confused
" bye! " i waved as i closed the door. I sat down and grabbed my phone.
- oli pov -
" bye! " she waved as she closed the door.
I was confused on what she's planning to, I tried to reach the doorknob. But i guess, maybe she's over her.
I nodded slightly, as I leave her house and go back home, my home wasn't that much far away from her house. So I guess I can just walk.
While walking, spacing out. The hug was still embraced at my back, was still stinging. What's with this? Maybe I do like her.

I wonder why lizzie is with oli hours ago, I mean I can see his shade of red on his cheeks. Maybe they were on a date and that's why they won't like to be disturbed.
Although, my feelings weren't like this after i met lizzie long time ago. Let's just see if lizzie is dating oli.
- lizzie pov -
There! I finally finish my plan, if this works and he actually likes me. Then, this is gonna be worse.
If he does, then what do I say though. Maybe I shouldn't assume about them.
I flop myself down on the couch. Jeez this feelings aren't faital. I slept again from tiredness. And forgot to change clothes.

Next morning

The sound of knocking came again, I wake up and answer it. Seeing its oli.
" oh did you just woke up? " he asked
" yep. " I said my eyes are still closed. " come in. " I add
I flop myself down at the couch, as he sat down on a chair.
" tired? " he spoke.
" mmm. " I hummed in a yes way.
" what you want? " I asked sincere.
" oh right! I was wondering if we could.. date. " he muttered.
I lift my head shocked. " date? " I replied.
" y-yes.. " he nodded.
" um.. sure. I accept your date. " I agreed him. He smiled so happy.
" now? " I raised my brow and he nodded.
I get ready and ate cereal. After those I just worn a a dark turquoise(?) Hoodie. Since we aren't going casual or anything.
He stepped outside who has a bike that has a basket on it. I closed my door and walk towards him.
" you can ride a bike? " I said pointing it.
" yep! I'm not that horrible on anything! " he said jokingly, I chuckled.
I sat down behind him as he finally drive.
" hold tightly. " he said
" I know. " I replied.
The breeze was nice today, the sky is blue. I rest my head on his back while holding his waist tightly.
This is a nice day morning. We started to go on hills. Seeing the city up hill. I was happy that this date isn't worse. And yet isn't perfect but still great.
" hey oli! " I called out his name.
" yeah!? " he yelled.
" thanks for the great date! " I told him.
" my pleasure my lady! " he replied
I rest my head again on his back. Enjoying everything.
Oli is like a best friend to me, I enjoyed his company and everything. I like him this way. But I don't like him in a love way. I just didn't wanted to reject his heart.
He stopped and we rest on a bench up hill. He grabbed two coke can, and 4 donuts that was on plastic.
He gave me a drink and a donut. " thank you! " I said pleasured. He smiled peacefully.
We ate some donuts, it was delicious. I had alot of fun for today. We also talked about stuff. And we seemed laugh on our embarrassing memories.
That one question I haven't asked him still stings me to say it now.
" hey oli. " I called him
" yeah? " he respond sooner.
" do you.. like me? " I asked him, he scratched his neck as he breath in and out.
" it's not what it seems. " he answered, his cheeks were shade of red.
" are you sure? " I asked him again.
" yeah, I'm sure. It's not what it seems like, but I guess it's a no. " he lied, I know it.
" hm sure. " I look down staring at my bited donut.
" I mean I didn't wanna date you or anything, I just wanna hang out with you for today. " he muttered.
" I understand " I nodded.
Silent came, felt like silent is sitting with us tooked our mouths.
The air was fresh, and I enjoyed it.
" remember that time when we had prom? " he said breaking the silent.
" oh right! Yeah.. " I said
" you were pretty along time ago, when we had prom. " he said fidgeting his can.
" yeah, the guy that asked me out suck. " I told
" yeah, he suck. " he respond sound disappointed.
- years ago on prom -
Lizzie was at the chair waiting for her prince to come, for hours. No one did.
Lizzie felt dumb. As a hand reach out to her, she lifts her head as she sees oli.
" Oli! " she yelled his name as she hugs him.
" he didn't- come? " oli replied concerned
" yeah.. " a small tear rolled down my cheek. He reach his pocket and gave me a handkerchief. I wipe my tears and hugged him as a thank you.
The hug turned into a slow dance. Atleast my best friend, was there for me.
- present -
" I wonder if he made a worst mistake to you. If he did come then, he's your husband now or something. " oli mutter
" yeahh but he's ugly anyway. " I respond.
" let's go home now. " he said, I nodded slightly. We throw our mess away on the garbage can. As we go back home while riding a bike.
To be continued.
