-October 2019-

Olivia's POV:

"What are you doing?" Josh asked me. We were on a FaceTime.

"Thinking about Halloween." I responded. Madi is having a party and I didn't want to go, but Madi really wanted me there. She let me invite Josh if I wanted to. I was thinking about wearing matching Halloween costumes with him, but I don't know if he'll think that's dumb.

"What about Halloween?" He asked me.

"Costumes." I replied.

"What about costumes?" He looked at me through the camera.

"The party." I answered.

"Well, what about the party?" He asked me. He knew I wasn't in the mood to go.

"Why are you questioning me?" I asked him.

"Bacause I know you're hiding something, and you don't want to talk with me about it." He chuckled. "What's up?" He asked me, raising his eyebrows.

"The sky." I shrugged.

"Okie. I'll call you later." He smiled.

"Wait- why-" I asked. It took me off surprise. He didn't even tell me why, he just hung up. I called him a few times after that, but he didn't answer. About half an hour later, he texted me.

Joshy

Josh:

You:

Josh:

You:

Josh:

can you please open the door? 

it's kinda chilly out here

You:

Josh:

😁

I went to the door and opened it.

"Hi." He smiled, pecking my lips. Though my parents are there, we don't really feel the need to hide so much anymore. We've been dating for 3 months already.

"What are you doing here?" I asked him, standing on the door.

"Am I not welcomed here anymore?" He laughed.

"You know what I mean." I rolled my eyes.

"I don't. But I have ice cream." He smirked. That knowing, teasing, annoying, yet hot and cute smirk. I hated that I loved it. After saluting my parents, he guided us to my room. "Are you going to talk now or am I going to eat this delicious and creamy ice cream by myself?" He smirked.

"Talk about what?" I asked, knowing what he meant.

"Okay." He took out chocolate fudge and spread it out on the box of ice cream. It was a mix of vanilla, strawberry, and mint chocolate chip. My favorite flavors were strawberry and vanilla, and his were mint chocolate chip and vanilla. He's so annoying sometimes, and once again, I hate that I love it and I have to pretend I don't, yet he knows I love it so he does it even more which annoys me even more! "You sure you don't want to? I mean, I'm giving you a second chance." He shrugged, taking out some sprinkles and whip cream.

"I have no idea what you're talking about." I crossed my arms.

"Oh well, that's fine. I'll just..." He stopped, taking out some oatmeal cookies and smashing them on the ice cream. It looked really good. "...Eat this myself." He smiled innocently.

"I hate you." I rolled my eyes walking over to him. "Do you want to wear matching costumes for Madi's party tomorrow night?" I asked him, straight to the point.

"I'd love to." He smiled, kissing me. I licked the ice cream on my lips he'd left. It made me want some even more. So he doesn't think it's stupid? Now I feel stupid for thinking he would think it was stupid. "But I thought you didn't want to go."

"I don't, but Madi really wants me there." I sat on his lap.

"I'll be with you so you don't  get bored or tired there, okay?" He placed his chin on my shoulder. I nodded, bringing my hand back to mess with his curls."But, am I going to eat this whole thing by myself?" 

"No, I eat some to." I turned around, taking the spoon out of his hand to put it in my mouth.

"Not so fast." He smirked. "You haven't told me anything." He stopped my hand.

"It was the question I just asked you." I answered. He looked at me in shook, before he burst out laughing.

"You really made me spend 20 bucks to ask me about wearing marching costumes?!" He laughed.

"I thought you were going to say it was dumb or something." I answered, timidly. He stopped laughing and brought me closer to him.

"I could never think something you ask me is dumb." He rubbed my cheek. I smiled at him and nodded my head. He took that as an opportunity to kiss me.

So, we're going as John and Yoko to Madi's party. Right now we're driving to it.

"What song is this?" He asked me.

"Uptown girl by Billy Joel." I answered, placing my hand on his lower thigh.

"I'm a Billy Joel die-hard! How have I never listened to this song?!" He exclaimed. I laughed and sang along. It was quiet, except for our humming in harmony.  I love when we sing in harmony.

"Babe, I'm the only boy here." He squeezed my hand once we walked into Madi's house.

"You should be used to that." I chuckled, kissing his cheek. He game me a dirty yet playful look.

"Just say the word and we'll leave." He smiled  at me. I nodded before we walked to salute some people.

We had a blast, and took some pictutes.

It was getting late, so I walked over to Josh, telling him I was tired. After a couple minutes of saying goodbye to my friends we took off.

"I'm really tired." I yawned, sticking my hand to the back seats to get one if his hoodies he had randomly left there. Josh is messy like that, he just leaves clothes around and doesn't organize them until someone tells him to or until it is an awful lot of mess. I slipped it on me with a smile forming when I noticed it smelled like him.

"I have a present for you." He grinned.

"You do?!" I exclaimed.

"Yeah. It's in the trunk." He smiled, parking the car on his driveway. I texted my mom, she said she was fine with me spending the night at his.... or well, the early morning since it's already 2 AM. He got out of the car seat, then opened the door for me. He held his hand out for me to grab it. I nodded with a 'thank you'.

"Whatcha got behind you?" I wiggled my eyebrows. He showed me a wrapped up box, handing it to me shyly.

"It's not some million dollar thing, but yeah." He kicked the floor with the tip of his shoe. I unwrapped it, confused on why slippers were the gift. He noticed the confusion on my eyes and started explaining. "Well, last time you said your heels were killing your feet so I got you some Ugg Slippers to put on after wearing those painful heels." He smiled timidly. His sweetness!

"But we talked about that two months ago." I chucked. A huge smile was plastered on my face.

"Well, yeah, but since press week is coming and you're going to have to wear heels, I figured you would want to get back and change into something comfortable after it." He shrugged, looking at me. This is what I loved, small gifts. They didn't have to be the biggest, or the most expensive things ever. This was far more meaningful.

"Thank you for being so thoughtful." I wrapped my arms around him, connecting our lips. "I love you." I smiled, looking into his handsome brown eyes.

"I love you more." He sweetly kissed me.

"That's not true." I frowned and shook my head.

"Oh, but it is." He turned around and placed me on his back. How did he do that?

"No."

"Yes."

"No, it's not." I pouted.

"It's not?" He asked me, letting me down on the floor, once we reached his apartment.

"No." I answered, crossing my arms. He pulled my waist closer to him and interlocked our lips, in a harsh manner, yet never hurting me or making me uncomfortable.

"See," He smirked, pulling away after a few minutes. "I-"

"You're the biggest tease ever, and I also have something for you." I smiled.

"You're only saying that because you don't want to lose this debate." He smirked. I pulled out a light blue sweater from my bag and smirked back at him.

"I wasn't lying." I chuckled, in a sing-song voice. I gave it to him. His reaction was priceless.

"Wait- this is- are you serious?! I've been meaning to get this for a while!" He had his mouth wide open. I got him one of Harry Styles' merchandise. I knew he had been eyeing that sweater for such a long time. "Thank you." He hugged me.

"I just had to." I chuckled, sliding my hand into his curls. I love doing that. "I couldn't look at you drooling over that sweater anymore, so I just bought it for you." I turned my head to the side, kissing his neck. I know Madi said to not fall too in love with him, but I just can't help it.

N/A
oh.... too in love I see...hmmm
