"Are you sure you wanna go to school? If you're not feeling well we can skip the whole thing and have a girl's day." My mom said but I shook my head."No Mom, you have work and I'll be fine," I told her and she frowned at me."Via, you know I would call off work to spend time with you, no matter what." My mom said and I let out a small sigh."I know Mom, but I have to face my problems. I can't run away every time things get hard." I explained to her."Okay, but call me if you need anything. Like anything at all." My mom demanded so I nodded."I will," I said while my mom stopped in front of the school building. I climbed out and waved at her before heading inside."Oh my gosh, Liv." I heard Paige from behind me. Not her too."Paige," I said while turning around to face her."How are you?" She asked with a smile on her face and her three blonde besties glared at me."I'm good and you?" I asked and she laughed for no reason."I'm totally fantastic." She said before lacing her arm with mi

Cole's POV. "Liv!" I called after her as she walked upstairs to her room."Cole." I heard my dad say so my head snapped to where he was sitting. "Get in here." He said blankly so I did as he told me to."What's up, Dad?" I asked and he glared at me before a broad smile spread across his face."Captain of the football team." My dad chuckled while tapping my back. "I'm a proud father." He continued happily."Thanks, Dad," I said blankly."You know when I was your age, I was also captain of the football team. I had the friends, the girls, I had everything." My dad said and I frowned at him. "What I'm trying to say is you need to focus on what matters son. Cherish the things and people that you know will still be there for you in twenty years." My dad said and I just nodded at him."Yeah," I said under my breath."And apologize to Liv." My dad said in annoyance. "I swear you guys are worse than a married couple." He said and I glared at him."Really Dad?""Come on Cole. Don't tell me you

Cole and I entered the mansion together and found his classmates partying inside."I swear I'm gonna fucking kill Griff," Cole said angrily."Calm down. You should have some fun." I said. "And don't worry about me so much," I said while smiling at him."I leave you alone for one minute and the sharks swoop in." He said softly."They can swoop in all they want but they're not you," I said softly."Okay, you have officially convinced me not to worry about you that much." He said slowly."And don't hit anyone. Try to talk it out or just walk away." I said in an educative voice."Yes, boss." He replied with a clean smirk on his face."Liv!" Jade called."Gotta go. And don't fuck with any other bitches." I said before walking away from him.Jade linked our arms together before leading us upstairs."Where are we going?" I asked her."This is your room." She said while pointing at a door. "Open it." I opened the door while looking at Jade in suspicion. When I entered it my mouth hung open.

At twelve o'clock we went downstairs to the lobby and found everyone else already there. "What's up! What's up!" Principal Clark also known as Big T asked while coming into the room. "Big T!" The kids yelled in one voice."Griff, would you do us the honors?" Uncle Tanner asked with a smile on his face and Griff stepped forward, causing everyone to yell and clap hands for him."We're going zip lining motherfuckers!" Griff yelled and everyone bursted out into cheers. "But first we have to go on a hike to get there. Once we're done doing all the shit in the mountains we get to go down to the waterfalls and chill the fuck out!" He said and everyone cheered him on. Why is everyone so excited about this? I go zip-lining and hiking almost every two weeks."Pack your bikinis girls!" Griff yelled and I rolled my eyes at him. "Cause we're about to fuck!" He yelled and Uncle Tanner just shook his head at him.I looked over at Cole standing across the room who was staring at the madness playing

I saw Cole sitting on a big rock in the middle of the woods so I walked towards him. I ran a hand through my hair before going to stand in front of him."Liv." He said in a husky voice."I'm mad at you," I replied pointedly and Cole frowned at me."For what? For protecting you?" He asked wildly."For not keeping your promise," I said in disbelief."I'm sorry baby." He said when he looked up at me. He pulled me towards him and placed his head against my waist. "I know," I said softly while rubbing my fingertips against his scalp."I won't do it again." He said softly."I know," I replied softly and allowed him to hold onto me. "I love you." He said against my belly and I couldn't help but smile."I love you more," I said softly."I want you to put whatever happened between you, Griff, Tyler, and Rook in the past," I said and he pulled away from me."I love you but no." He said cutely and I chuckled."Please put your pride aside, Cole," I said softly."They messed with you, Liv." He sa
