Something in the...

Part 12

8:37am
I woke up to Olivia half asleep on my chest where she was when we slept.

I kissed her forehead and she sluggishly looked up, her eyes half open.
She then snuggled in closer.

I got the feeling that she felt safe and secure.
As she wasn't on high alert or anything and just relaxing.
Something which she obviously hasn't been able to do in probably years.

I wrapped my arms around her and pulled her up my body so I could rest my head on top of hers.
"Love you" Olivia whispered, most likely still half asleep.
I smiled. "Love you to my love" I replied, stroking her hair.

We were just cuddling when I heard a knock at the door and Leo burst into my room.
(Bad timing)
Leo was about to say something when he noticed Olivia.
He was very confused but yet not really surprised.
I didn't know what to say. I was waiting for him to speak first.

Leo eventually just sighed and said
"Look after my sister"
I nodded in response.
"Also happy birthday, breakfast is ready by the way to" he said and walked off.

I kissed Olivia's forehead and whispered
"Livy, you hungry?"
I removed my head from hers as she rubbed at her eyes.
She debated for a bit in her mind if she was hungry or not.

"Yeah, let's go down to eat" she decided.
"First we have to do something, come with me" she said starting to walk out my room.
I quickly followed.

As I entered her room, she pulled out a small box of... makeup?
"I thought you don't wear makeup?" I asked.
"I don't" she replied.
"But..." she continued
"Would you really want everyone asking about the hickeys" she smiled.
I had completely forgot about that.

Olivia turned to her mirror hanging on her wardrobe door.
She covered up her hickeys before during her attention into mine.
"That explains why you have makeup then" I said while she was covering my hickeys.
"Yep" she replied.

Olivia kissed me before putting away the makeup and getting dressed.
"Let's go downstairs shall we?" She messed up my hair.
When she turned around, I ran over and picked her up.
She screamed a bit as she wasn't expecting it but it turned to laughter.

Olivia wrapped her arms around my neck, as I carried her out her room and downstairs before setting her down on the wooden floor.

Once we had stopped laughing, we noticed Rebecca staring at us pointing to me then Olivia and back again.
She eventually realised what was going on.

"Take care of that girl Ethan!" Rebecca warned.
I rolled my eyes at her.

Once we ate our breakfast, Olivia placed her dishes at the sink as I came along and did the same thing.
I wrapped my arms around her waist.

"Livy?" I asked.
"Yeah Ethy" she replied.
"Your coming to my school right?" I asked.
"Yes, why?" She replied.
"Because..." I started speaking.
I turned her to face me.
"Is it okay if I were to call you my girlfriend?" I asked.
Olivia gasped before kissing me deeply on the lips.
"Of course" she replied smiling.

I kissed her back.

Rebecca walked in on me kissing her.
"AH! Get a room love birds" she said covering her eyes.
"What if you start dating someone Rebecca?" I asked.
"Never!" She yelled still covering her eyes.

I rolled my eyes at her.
My parents walked in, probably wondering why Rebecca was looking mental with her eyes covered.
My mum noticed me and Olivia.

"Awwww" my mother said.
"This is so sweet, you two look after each other" she added.
"Yes mum" I replied.
Me and Olivia then ran back upstairs.
