----------------------------------------------------------------------

I woke up the next morning, in of all people, Robbie's bed.

Even saying that hurts because it's not the bed I'm used to.

It's not the bed I love.

It's not the bed that has become like a second home to me.

All I did was talk. Robbie hugged me the whole time I cried, but the feeling in the pit of my stomach is anything but a feeling of comfort.

It's a feeling of guilt.

Mason and I actually broke up last night.

Like I said, I knew this was going to happen.

We were going to hit 3 months and he still wouldn't want to tell Connor.

I told him I would never want someone to feel like I was ashamed or embarrassed of them, and all he said was OK.

Fuck me, how did this even turn out this way.

I showed up to talk to Jake, but he and Kelsey weren't home. Robbie opened the door on the other side of the porch, and I ended up confessing everything to Robbie to just get it out.

And now I'm opening my eyes, in Robbie's bed, and there's no Robbie in sight.

I took a deep breath, rolled out of his bed, and made my way down the stairs to see Jake sitting in Marcus and Robbie's living room with crossed arms and raised eyebrows.

"I came to see you last night." I pursed my lips.

"And end up in my best friends bed." He nodded. "Sounds logical seeing as you just broke up with your boyfriend, last night."

"Nothing happened." I shook my head.

"Fully aware, Robbie told me everything." He shrugged.

I sighed and sat down with him. "What do I do." I leaned my head on his shoulder.

He sighed and wrapped his arms around me. "You be 16." He nodded. "You get drunk with your brother for his birthday, you stop being so serious for once, and you let me be big brother and watch over you guys tonight. Give it some time, then talk to Mason." He rubbed my shoulders.

I nodded.

"And, being the big brother I am. Robbie is out getting you, Abby, Sienna, Tory and Havannah a big case of white claws, and we'll be opening the connecting doors with the permission of Rob and Marc." He smiled.

"You're amazing." I nodded.

"But right now, go over to mine and Kelsey's apartment, shower, get dressed, primp, whatever you have to do to put yourself in a good mood, we're going out to dinner in 3 hours because someone decided to sleep until 2, and the boys will be here to party prep after." He pointed out the door.

I sighed, and I did exactly what he said.

I went and showered, I did my hair, and by that I mean I ran a fuck ton of curl cream through it, and that's it. I threw sweat pants and a hoodie on, and I walked in to their living room.

"Ol what the hell is that?" Jake shook his head.

"You're lucky I got this far." I nodded. "I came here in this, and I always have curl cream in my bag." I sighed and sat down on the couch.

"Alright, I can't deal with this or I will physically whoop his whole ass." Jake groaned.

"Honey, just, go somewhere else." Kelsey waved him off and came and sat down with me. "Go see if Robbie and Marcus need help."

"Ugh!" He yelled and walked out of the apartment.

"Don't worry about him. Brother instinct." She shook her head. "But you my dear, we're going to have a sister to sister talk right now, because I hate seeing you like this." She wrapped her arms around me.

I nodded and laid my head on her shoulder.

"I know right now that this hurts." She rubbed my shoulder. "But if Mason isn't willing to be open about your relationship, then these things dripping down your face." She ran a finger across my cheek. "Are not worth it." She shook her head. "Honey I love Mason, I do. But you think he's what makes the sun shine, and darling, he's not. He makes your eyes tear, and your cuts bleed. He's the thoughts in your heart that are ripping you apart right now. And my god, I know you love him or you wouldn't be sitting in my living room in sweatpants when theres a party tonight. But he's killing you. Don't let him kill you. So you and I, are going to go through my closet, find you something amazing to wear, and I am going to get you so dolled up that he won't know what hit him." She picked my head up and held my face between her hands. "And we're going to have fun." She smiled.

I gave her a small smile. "You're really good at this." I nodded.

"Well, I grew up with only bothers too." She tucked my hair behind my ears. "Us Pate and soon to be Pate girls have to stick together." She nodded.

She stood up, grabbed my hand, and dragged me to their bedroom.

An hour and a half later, I'm wearing a pair of torn up skinny jeans, knee high wedge boots, a white crop top with a blue and white flannel, looking like I belong on a Sephora add with my hair all diffused and voluptuous.

"There she is." She fluffed my hair.

I sighed, and pulled her in to the biggest hug. "Thank you."

"Always baby girl." She squeeze me.

We walked back in to the living room, and Oaken and Amber were both here.

"Jake told me we're on Mason Patrol tonight." He crossed his arms.

I sighed and nodded.

"Why didn't you tell me." He shook his head.

"I didn't even tell him." I pointed at Jake.

"Well, when we get to dinner, I am going to be on one side of you, with this one next to me." Jake came over and wrapped his arms around Kelsey.

"And us on the other side." Amber nodded. "Put some space between you guys."

I pouted and I felt more tears coming. "You guys love me."

I have called.

I have texted.

I have face timed.

I even went over to their house.

Olivia is no where to be fucking found.

She left my house so fast, but the words 'this is done' threw me so off guard that I couldn't think.

I haven't talked to her at all today.

All I could really do was get ready for dinner for Connor's birthday.

Me, My parents, Jake and Kelsey, Bebe and Oaken, Connor, Sienna, Olivia, and their parents are all meeting for dinner at 5.

I pulled up to the restaurant right after our parents and Connor and Sienna.

"Have you heard from Ol?" Connor looked at me as I got out of my truck.

I shook my head. "Why?"

"Because she didn't come home last night." He sighed.

Then we both looked at Sienna. "Have you?" Connor raised his eyebrows.

She pursed her lips and looked at the lot entrance. "Oh! There's Jake and Kelsey. Olivia, Oaken and Bebe are right behind them." She took off running as soon as they parked.

She basically latched on to Olivia and whispered something.

Olivia closed her eyes and sighed then said something back.

Sienna scrunched her face and looked at Connor.

"What is that about?" Connor gave me a look.

"I have no clue." I shook my head.

I really have no clue. I know Sienna doesn't know. But something isn't sitting right with me.

Sienna walked back over to us.

"Well?" Connor crossed his arms.

"Lets just, go inside." She nodded. "Your parents are waiting." She basically dragged him.

As soon as Olivia looked up and saw me, she stopped dead in her tracks. Kelsey and Bebe wrapped their arms in hers and walked her right past me, the two of them glaring at me the entire time.

And then Jake and Oaken. They stood directly in front of me and crossed their arms.

"What'd she say." I shook my head.

"Really Mason? OK." Oaken nodded.

"What?" I scrunched my face.

"When someone tells you they would never want someone to feel like they were embarrassed or ashamed of them, you don't fucking say OK." Jake nodded.

"No." I shook my head. "No no, that is not what I meant when I said OK."

"Three months is up Mason." Oaken shook his head.

"I'm just, I'm not ready. I can't tell him yet. Not until after his birthday."

"Well she, is over it. And tonight, you're going to stay away from her." Jake raised his eyebrows.

"I have to talk to her."

"You really think I'm the one you want to step to when it comes to Olivia. Do you really think that is wise?"

I sighed.

"Stay away from her tonight Mason." He pointed at me and walked inside.

Oaken shook his head and walked inside too.

I walked in after them and it became pretty clear that they were going to actually make me stay away from her. Because the seating.

Olivia. Left of Olivia, Jake and Kelsey. Right of Olivia, Oaken and Bebe. Next ro Oaken and Bebe, Sienna and Connor. Then, an open chair for me right next to my dad. Then my mom, Holly, and Jason.

Fuck me.

She looks amazing. Curly q'd up, flannel making her eyes pop, the white making her skin glow. I love it when she wears heels.

I groaned and sat down.

I pulled my phone out.

Baby please talk to me. I'm so sorry. I didn't mean it like that. I'm not embarrassed or ashamed of you.

She pulled her phone out, read came across my screen, but she put her phone down on the table.

Olivia please. Meet me before we meet everyone at Jakes.

Read.

I'm literally begging you right now. Just send me something. Talk to me.

Read.

I looked up from my phone to her handing her phone to Jake.

Jake please give her her phone back.

The screen didn't even light up.

She really just turned her fucking phone off.

We spent most of dinner going over party safety. Jake, Robbie and Marcus aren't drinking tonight so they can run the whole thing, because unfortunately the football team is coming. We're cool with Will coming, but his fucking friends and Saunders, no.

I swear to god Olivia sped the entire way to Jake's just so she could run inside and avoid me.

But I can drive just as fast.

I pulled in right after her.

She hopped out of her car and ran straight up to the porch, only to slam directly in to Robbie as he walked out.

"You alright?" He lifted her back up.

She nodded.

"Are you any better?" He pursed his lips.

"Yeah." She nodded. "Thank you, for last night."

"Hey, my beds open any time." He gave her a small smile.

Excuse me! His what is open any time!

I know he didn't just say his bed.

I stomped my ass right on over, and I guess he noticed because he grabbed her by her shoulders. "Go inside." He lightly pushed her through the door.

"Move." I nodded when I got up the stairs.

"Nah." He shook his head.

"Move before I move you." I glared.

"You really think you can." He smirked and nodded.

"I just heard you say your bed is open to my girlfriend. I can do just about anything right now." I nodded.

"OK, 1, she's not your girlfriend. And 2. Yes, she did sleep in my bed last night, but I slept on my couch." He nodded. "Jake and Kelsey weren't home, and she was in no condition to drive all the way back home. So I let her have my bed. She talked, I listened, and she cried. Nothing else happened. But Mason, you know I love you just as much as I do Oaken and Connor, but right now, you need to let her breathe."

"You don't even know-"

"Yes, I do." He crossed his arms. "Right up to the weekend before we saw you guys at the valley. I know. The whole relationship, the baby, the I love you, all of it. Mason I know he's your best friend." He nodded. "But so is Olivia. If he's really your best friend, tell him the truth."

I sighed and shook my head. "I'm not ready. I can't ruin this for him. He's gonna flip his lid.

"So let him." He shrugged. "You love Con. But you're in love with Olivia. And if you're as in love with Olivia as you say you are, you'll let it out. But you knew when you started this that there would come a day where you had to be honest. Do it before you lose her for good." He patted my shoulder and walked inside.

I took a deep breath and just sat on the stairs.

Fuck me.

All the girls showed up and ran inside.

Holden and Josh got here and started helping, Ryan, Ben, Carter, Connor and I carry food and Kegs.

And by 9:00 the party was in full boom.

I headed out of the kitchen to find Carter for a shot, and I swear to god.

I'm about to blow this whole place apart.

What in the hell is she doing with him!

I am drunk.

Not only am I drunk, I am so far past the point of drunk that I actually had to sit down.

Maybe drowning my sorrows in white claw was not a good idea, but it was the only way I could figure out to get over the fact that Mason looks amazing in his torn up jeans and button up with the sleeves rolled and that his eyes have been burning a whole in me since dinner.

I finally escaped the stare of what I'm considering Satan, and parked my ass against a wall on the floor by the stairs. My eyes fixed on the kitchen so I can move if he comes walking out.

Abby and Josh are all loved up and I didn't want to ruin their night because I'm not, so I left them be with their significant others tonight. Even Ben and Ryan get to be loved up. God I just want to be loved up.

I buried my face in my hands and just started to take some deep breaths.

This isn't fun. I want to go home.

About 10 minutes when by of me getting my sight to stop spinning, when someone sunk down on to the floor with me.

"Here." Cam handed me a bottle of water and a slice of pizza. "Sausage and mushrooms."

"Thank you." I groaned.

"Are you OK?" He pursed his lips.

Now I don't know what the fuck I just did with my head. But it was a combinations of nodding and shaking, so it was just kind of spinning in a circle.

"Uhm." He cleared his throat. "I don't what that was but I'm gonna take it as a no. Because we went to 12 parties together over the summer, and we all know Olivia Pate would rather be dancing than sitting on the floor." He nodded.

I took a deep breath and took a drink.

"Things go down hill with the guy you were seeing?" He looked down.

"How did you-"

"Grant." He nodded. "He told me you shut him down when he asked you out. Which, good, because if you went out with him I would be whooping my best friends ass."

"Will asked me out too." I groaned.

"Yeah, doesn't make me feel much better." He shook his head. "Did uh. Did he really kiss you during your competition, or are Grant and Tyler just fucking with me?"

"He really did that." I nodded. "And I slapped him in the face."

"Ouch." He let out a small laugh. "You know, you can talk to me if you want." He nodded.

"I don't think I should." I shook my head.

"Olivia, you told me everything at some point, and even though it sucks that you're dating someone else-"

"I'm not." I sighed. "We broke up."

"I'm sorry." He nodded. "Dated. It sucks that you dated someone, you can still talk to me about anything."

"Really?" I looked over at him.

"Yeah. Olivia I care about, and I still love you, I don't want to see you upset. So, eat your pizza, soak up some of that alcohol, and just talk to me." He gave me a small smile.

I sighed and took a bite. "Connor fucks everything for me."

"Yeah, I know. Personally." He nodded.

"At least you were willing to deal with him."

"This guys wasn't?" He raised his eyebrows.

"We were supposed to tell Connor last night, and he didn't want to because he's scared of him."

"Olivia the guy for you would be willing to deal with your brother." He nodded.

"You weren't."

"I was. Olivia I made a dumb ass decision. I can take physical abuse fine. But I was worried about my scholarships. It wasn't that I wasn't willing to deal with your brother. I could. I'm the one who begged you to tell him."

I sniffled. "Yeah I got a little taste of how you felt." I nodded. "Cam I'm sorry if I ever made you feel like I was embarrassed by you."

"You didn't." He shook his head. "You were just trying to look out for me." He put his arm around me and pulled me in to him. I laid my head on his shoulder. "I'm just really sorry someone made you feel like they were embarrassed by you."

I took a deep breath. "Why is it so hard for people to be with me." I wiped my face.

"Olivia it's not, it's just-"

"What in the hell are you doing!" I heard someone yell walking out of the kitchen.

My head shot up.

Oh fuck.

He grabbed my arm and pulled me to my feet.

"What the hell is that!" Mason pointed down at Cam.

"OK, don't touch her like that." Cam stood up and shook his head.

"You can shut the fuck up!" He pointed at Cam. "What the hell are you doing."

"I'm just talking." I whispered.

"How about you talk to me! Not him! Are you fucking kidding me Olivia." He shook his head.

"We can talk." Cam nodded. "We're friends. Friends have conversations. Our conversation is none of your business. So you can walk away." He crossed his arms.

"A conversation huh." Mason crossed his arms and nodded.

"Yes, a conversation. People can have those without fucking."

"Mason calm down." Ryan walked over and grabbed his shoulders.

"No." Mason shook his head. "You wanna have a conversation, why don't you ask her who she's been fucking for the past 3 months." He yelled.

I just stared at him.

"Who she's been what!" I heard a yell from the kitchen again.

Connor and Ben came walking out. Connors face, was not the face of a birthday boy. Mason's eyes wide as hell.

"Oh shit." Ryan whispered.

"Excuse me." Cameron raised his eyebrows and looked at me.

"You better tell me what the fuck he is talking about, right now." Connor stood in front of me.

"Oh my god." I groaned.

Oaken came over and grabbed his arm. "Connor lets just-"

"No!" Connor yelled. "Olivia he better be fucking lying! You've had sex!" HE screamed.

"Oh fuck." Abby walked over and wrapped her arm in mine.

"Olivia!" Connor screamed.

"Yes." I whined.

You know how Mason has a someones getting their ass beat face. Connor's, scarier. "Who?" He said with a clenched jaw. "How fucking many."

I couldn't even talk right now.

"Who and how many!" He screamed.

"5." I let out with a wimper.

"Con lets just-"

He cut Josh off. "Don't touch me." Connor looked at him then back to me.

"Oaken go find Jake." Sienna whispered.

Oaken took off running.

"Who." Connor crossed his arms.

"Connor." I shook my head.

"Who!" He yelled.

I took a deep breath. "Kalum, Duke Bower, Mitch Collins, and Cam." I scrunched my face.

"You fucked my little sister." HE looked at Cameron.

"Oh get over it Connor." Cam rolled his eyes.

"That was only 4." Connors head shot back to me. "Who? Who have you been fucking for the past three months."

I shook my head. I glanced to Mason and he was looking like he was about to literally shit his pants.

"Olivia I swear to fucking god. You either tell me, or I will completely demolish every single guy I know you talk to. Who the fuck was it." His jaw clenched again.

"Connor I-"

"Me." Mason closed his eyes with a deep breath.
