Chapter 17: "Pity party"
Olivia Summers
Dylan looked at me speechless so I laughed it off and said, "Oh sorry, I didn't mean to make you feel uncomfortable."
"No, it's fine but-"
"Ah, the air feels nice, don't it?" I smiled, "There's nothing like the fresh and warm summer air at the province. Am I right?"
Dylan nodded. We finished out ice creams and grocery lists. As we walked our way back, it has been an awkward silence between us.
Ah, why did I have to go and ruin the mood? I hate this. I've having a pity party and I'm screwing everything up. How would Dylan like me now? I'm just a mess.
But then, my thoughts were cut off as he grabbed my arm and pulled me beside him, he stated, "You might get hit by a car, if you're beside me, then I could protect you."
"In that case, you might get hit instead! I can't let that happen! I'll protect you!" I confidently said<

The Only Exception Chapter 18: "Let me love you"
Olivia Summers After hours of sitting there admiring the stars, Aunt Lou came out and sat next to me, she said, "What are you doing here all alone? It's cold outside."I smiled, "It is but the view makes it all worth it.""At least bring a blanket." Aunt Lou pulled out one and wrapped me in it, she nagged like a mom, "You know you get colds easily.""It's summer." I replied, "No one gets cold in summer.""You do." Aunt Lou continued, "As a kid, you were always playing from dusk until dawn, you'd come back home with a cold but you'd smile like you do now and say that it was worth it because you had fun. You've always been naughty and silly."I laughed as I remembered those days, I said, "Yet you still love me.""Of course, you're my daughter."I flinched as I heard that. It wasn't the fi
The Only Exception Chapter 19: "Love of my life"
Olivia Summers After a few hours of drive, we arrived back, Damon offered to walk me back to my apartment with a smirk on his face, "Shall I walk you back to your apartment, love?""Cringey. You're really cringey." I mocked as I grabbed my bags, "You're not Dylan so no thanks."Then I walked straight ahead without looking back at him. My thoughts wander off to Dylan. Ah... I really want to call him. Before I stepped inside the building, I could hear Damon scoff as he teased, "You're not really gonna look back to say goodbye or change your mind?""No!" I responded while I continued to walk. I scoffed, "Stop hoping, casanova.""I still can't win you for now, huh?" Damon demanded, "Then if not as a girlfriend, I have other ways of pisisng you of. As my lovely servant, clean my room tomorrow, I have a very important guest coming. Come early and leave early, got that?""By guest, I
The Only Exception Chapter 20: "Build me up buttercup"
Olivia Summers I immediately went back to my apartment to get some stuff that I will be needing on my journey to Dylan. I packed my lucky patterned socks, some clothes just in case, etc. Some essentials like my scented candles that smells like Dylan- sunshines and raindbows, it smells heavenly, I cna't sleep without it. Of course, I brought some room sprays disinfectants because it's sanitary.As soon as I finished packing, I realized... I may have brought a little... too much? It's fine, I definitely need all of this things, right? Oh, who cares?I went straight to Damon's room, I took a deep breath and I knocked at Damon's door but there was no response. Ah crap. Should I... wait a little more longer? Do I make a fuss? What should I do for Damon to get the door?!I couldn't wait any longer because every minute counts for me to reach Dylan in wherever he is. So, I decided to open the door and declared as I cl
The Only Exception Chapter 21: "Perfectly Perfect"
Dylan AshtonIt was already morning when I woke up.The travel must have gotten me too tired yesterday. I dreamt of Olivia and for some reason, I hoped to see her face as soon as I woke up. I imagined her messy hair falling dow my face as she was waking me up with that gentle smile then all of a sudden, I realized that I remembered that wrong.It wasn't Olivia.It was Summer. A different Summer.I groaned in frustration. I really should have just told Olivia where I was going. What? Why would I tell her that? I mean she's not crazy enough to follow me here even if she knew, right?And why would I want her to? I'm hurting her. I should stop this nonsense. I made my choice the moment I went here to our father's beach house.If I could even consider him that. He was never a father to us.That's why mo
The Only Exception Chapter 22: "Lost in your eyes"
Olivia SummersFor a minute, I almost believe what Damon said but then I realize that he's just trying to make me fall, a classic casanova style: compliment you and tell you things no one else told you so you can feel special even when they're just toying you.I know their kind too well. I'm not proud but I've been toyed by the likes of him. I was the subject of bets of all sorts because I was theweird and hopeless romantic girl everyone knew.Damon was no different. He was a casanova. Always will be.Damon sat beside me and said, "Well, we're definitely lost.""Why are you sittting beside me?""I wanted to.""Gross."Damon snickered, "Woman, you will be swayed. Sooner or later.""Keep dreaming." I grinned confidently, "No matter what you do, I will never fall in love with you."
The Only Exception Chapter 23: "Try"
Olivia SummersI was caught off guard when Damon hugged me but for some reason, I didn't try to move away from him like I usually do. The look in his eyes earlier... seemed so lonely.A feeling I was too familiar.Suddenly, a pretty lady with her simple white shirt and denim shorts came up to us saying, "You two lovebirds seem to be lost.""Ah yes, we are." Damon was surprised, he immediately lets go of me. I was dumbfounded too but I managed to reply, "I mean, yes, we're lost but no, we're not a couple.""yet." Damon smirked as he looked at me devilishly.And there he goes again. Being the mischevious little devil with his lines and tricks to make any naive girl fall for him. How annoying. I rolled my eyes at him and said, "Never.""Never say never." Damon nudged, "You might end up eating your words, darling.""If you say so."
The Only Exception Chapter 24: "How to be a heartbreaker pt.1"
Damon AshtonWith my loose gray shirt and black sweat shorts, hair slicked back showing that clean shaved line and my go-to black kaishi run, I went to room B50. This is how I run away from things like... feelings.Unnecessary feelings.Complicated feelings."What took you so long?" She asked in a flirty manner as she touches her lips, "Your other girlfriends?""Sorry." I put my hands around her waist and kissed her, "Still mad?"She grabbed my shirt and pulled me inside her room. "I'm still debating about it."I smirked.Rule number one: you gotta have fun but when you're done, you gotta be the first to run. So, after things happen, a casual flirting goes a long way. I left her along with a note, 'Thanks for having me over.'Rule number two: just don't get attache
The Only Exception Chapter 25: "How to be a heartbreaker pt.2"
Damon AshtonI don't know why but the way she answered that was quite... heartbreaking. There was no hesitation, Olivia was sure she'd never fall in love with someone like me. A casanova.But still, a part of me was relieved to actually hear her say that. I must be going crazy. Why am I so indecisive lately? Damn it."Hey, are you okay?" Olivia asked, "You look like you're having an existential crisis.""Ha ha. Funny." I snickered, "Says the hopeless romantic who's about to become a heartbreaker.""For your information, I am still against the idea of breaking someone's heart for the fun of it but Kyle is a jerk who totally deserves it.""Hypocrite.""This was your idea." Olivia raised his eyebrows, "Ah, I see, you're making me question it so I'd back down. Is this a test?"It wasn't but I lied. "Congratulations, you passed.""You better not let your guard down because I will make you fall for me.""That's my line."Olivia chuckled, "It is but it's a lot better when I use it. Well, is
