13| just a quick trip to arizona

Vinnie's POV

ok so I really don't need much I fly back tomorrow, all i have left to do is find somewhere tonight which Katerina can help me with, that is if she actually lets me in, because if she doesn't then I'm really screwed. Shit I better check in for my flight, I pull my phone out to check in, ok that's done, I guess it's time to go then, I take my small carry on bag downstairs and call a 'lyft'. "Hey Vinnie, " Thomas says looking down he notices my bag, "where are you heading bro?" he asks, "oh you know the deal, just a quick trip to Arizona" I grin at him, "Arizona? What are you going there for?" he asks another question. "I just gotta see an old friend, for task number 3, you know how it is" I shrug, "Uh I don't actually, know how it is, but um enjoy your trip then" He says leaving the room, allowing me to head out to the airport.

Olive's POV

"Ok so, when should I be expecting this ex boyfriend of yours to be arriving at my apartment?" my sister asks me over the phone, "I have no idea what you are talking about" I chuckle in response, "mhm, I saw he liked the comment Ollie, I'm not an idiot", she says with her oh so knowledgeable tone, "just don't even worry about it, you want to hear my new song?" I try to distract her, "is that even question, play the song already" I laugh at her fast response. "Ok it's called in the middle of the night" I say before I begin to play the song.

Once she's done listening she asks, "So when does it come out", "Monday" I smile, "oh my gosh Ollie, that's like two days away, how long have you had the song?" she sounds shocked, "not long only like a little under a month, the record label were really excited when I said I had another" I smile recalling the phone call, "KNOCK KNOCK, KATERINA ARE YOU HOME?!" I hear a very familiar voice through the phone call that makes me laugh softly, "YES VINCENT I AM HOME!" my sister yells in response, "well, it seems I have to go, my guest has arrived, talk to you later Ol" she chuckles, "bye love you!" I shout, "love you more" she says in response.

Vinnie's POV

"YES VINCENT I AM HOME!" I hear Katerina yell which makes me laugh at how similar her and Ollie are. Maybe two minutes later the door swings open, making me smile at her, to which she responds with a glare, "what's up your ass?" I ask her, "well you interrupted my one phone call a week with my sister, so that's "what's up my ass"" she says the last part with air quotations, making me laugh again. "So may I come in?" I ask, "Yeah, yeah whatever" she says stepping aside allowing me to enter the small home. 

"So do tell, why did you fly out to Arizona, because I know it's not so we can be buddies?" I chuckle at her words, "Well, I'm presuming Olive has told you about the list, am I correct?" I ask, "Yes, yes you are, but what does this have to do with the list " she says gesturing between the two of us.  "Well, task number 3 on the list states that I must retrieve a video of your approval for me to date your sister" I flash her my signature grin, "well what if I don't approve?" she asks, "well, that is why I came here with one thing prepared," she looks curious to what I have prepared, "an explanation" this perks her right up, "yeah I'm all ears, let's hear this explanation" she brings me to the living room to sit on the couch.

"Dang," it was all she had to say about my explanation of Spring 2021 and the start of Summer 2021, "Yeah I know right, dang" I laugh, "Well trust me when I tell you if that is why the whole thing went down, you absolutely have my approval, not even I could do that to protect Ollie, and I'm her sister" she sits back taking a breath, "Well, Vincent Cole Hacker I have something to say, you have my utter approval to date my little sister please make her happy, and don't away from her flourishing music career and if you ever hurt her again, I will rip your dick right off you, and if you think I won't because I didn't this time, it's because I knew you would have a damn good explanation for hurting her so badly." She grins at her words and the facial expressions they give me. "Well I'm glad you said that, however, I do have to ask you to repeat it for the camera, Olive requested a video, so..." i say pulling my phone out to record her, "fine, just hit record already" she rolls her eyes at me.
