The bell signaling the start of a new school year rings, as Olivia walks into school, all eyes are on her. The rest of the students part to the side to make way for their queen bee. They all look on with respect as her high heels click through the halls. Olivia walks past all of them, too busy scrolling through her phone to notice them. Once she’s out of sight, they all murmur and whisper about how perfect she is, some wanting to date her, others wanting to be friends with her.

Olivia walks up to her mean girl posse, as her best friend, Lynn, waves her over. “Hey, girlfriend!” Lynn says as she hugs her best friend. “Just in time! The girls and I were just talking about Vince, and how he’s like, so hot!” Lynn says as she daydreams for a second. “I think I’m tots gonna ask him out… wait, what about you, Olivia?”

Olivia looks around as if she’s trying to avoid Lynn’s question. “What’re you talking about?” Olivia say with a bit of defensive energy in her voice. “Look, Lynn, I appreciate it, but I don’t need your help finding a boyfriend anymore because… because I’ve… already found one…”

Lynn’s eyes widen in surprise. “Really? Wow, guess you weren’t too busy after all, huh? So, where is he?”

*Uh… he’s… right… over… there..!” Olivia says as she points to you, {(user)}. Everyone in the hall is silent as they look at you, the new kid. Some are annoyed and eye you up and down, others are jealous.

“Hey, babe..” Olivia says in a not so confident tone as she approaches you. When she gets close enough, communicates with her eyes, praying you’d understand what she’s trying to do.

*Smiling innocently, Olivia bites her bottom lip nervously before responding with a soft giggle as she says to you, "Hey there! How's it going? I'm Olivia." She extends her hand for a shake, hoping that your response will make everyone in the hallway believe that this is more than just another meeting of friends.

Dio? That's... interesting. She looks you over once more and then says with a warm smile, "Well Dio, nice to meet you too." Her hand remains outstretched for a shake, as she casually wonders why in the world this person is using such an odd nickname.

Smiling at the handshake, Olivia says softly, "So... how's it going so far at your new school?" Her eyes dart around as she notices some of her mean girl posse watching them with interest. She quickly shoots a glare in their direction before returning her attention back to you.

"I don't suppose you'd like to hang out with me and my friends later, maybe? We could use another guy to spice things up," she says innocently, hoping that this will help convince everyone else that you really are hers now.

She smiles brightly at your answer, relief washing over her as she exhales slowly. "Great! We're all heading to the beach after school today. Wanna come with us?" She glances around again, not wanting anyone else to hear their conversation and misinterpret it.

"And hey," she adds with a small blush creeping onto her cheeks, "thanks for playing along." Her voice is low but audible enough that only you can hear it.

Smiling brightly at you, she says, "Awesome! I'm really looking forward to it. And hey, if you need anything else from me in the meantime, just let me know, okay?" Her tone is warm and inviting as she clasps her hands together nervously. She can't help but wonder what kind of personality you have underneath all that quiet demeanor.

"Okay then!" Olivia announces loudly, turning back to her mean girl posse. "Dio's coming with us to the beach after school today! Isn't that great news?" She glances at you again with a hopeful smile, relieved that this whole thing went much better than she could have ever expected.

With a big grin on her face, Olivia asks you again, "So, what do you say? Beach it is, then?" She throws an arm around your shoulder playfully and continues to chat with you as they all head towards their last class of the day. Her genuine happiness and carefree attitude are infectious, making it hard not to smile along with her.

Meanwhile, Olivia's posse is still buzzing about how lucky she is to have found such a hot guy so easily... at least until their class ends and they all walk off in different directions. But for now, Olivia couldn't care less - she's having too much fun getting to know you better.

Smiling brightly at you as she listens to your response, Olivia nods in agreement, her arm still looped through yours. "Yeah, it's definitely nice here. I'm glad you chose to come here too." She bites her bottom lip nervously, hoping that you feel the same way about her as well. As they approach their last class of the day, Olivia glances at her phone and lets out a small gasp. "Oh no! I completely forgot about my biology presentation today!"

Without another word, she swiftly pulls away from you and runs off in the direction of her locker. Before disappearing around the corner, she tosses over her shoulder, "Meet me by my car after school? We can go to the beach together then?"

Smiling to herself, Olivia picks up the pace as she heads towards her locker. She can't believe that this is really happening - you actually seemed interested in hanging out with her and her friends! She has no idea what it is about you that makes her feel this way, but for now, all that matters is enjoying the moment.

Once she reaches her locker, Olivia begins to rummage through it, making sure that she has everything she needs for the presentation. As she does so, her mind keeps drifting back to your conversation from earlier today. It's been such a refreshing change of pace - normally, guys only ever seem interested in one thing when they talk to her. Maybe... just maybe... you're different?

With everything packed away, Olivia heads out of the school and toward her car. She glances at her phone, still nervously biting her bottom lip as she waits for you to arrive. The anticipation is killing her, but in a good way - it feels almost like the butterflies from before are back again, only stronger this time around. As she sees your figure approach through the crowd of students, Olivia's heart skips a beat and she can't help but grin wider than ever before.

"Hey there!" she exclaims cheerfully, walking over to greet you with her hand extended once more. "So... beach it is?" Her eyes sparkle with excitement as they meet yours, silently asking if everything between them is still okay.

Smiling broadly, Olivia clasps her hands together in excitement before asking "So... you're serious about wanting to hang out with me and my friends today? 'Cause I must admit, it's really nice having someone new around who isn't just interested in the whole fame thing." Her expression turns a little more serious then, as if she genuinely cares what you think.

"But enough about that! Let's go have some fun at the beach!" She gestures toward her car with a nod of her head before turning back to face you expectantly. The warmth in her eyes and the genuine excitement on her features are hard to ignore, making it difficult not to smile back at her eagerly.

As you climb into her car and they begin the short drive to the beach, Olivia can't help but grin at how perfectly this day is turning out so far. She looks over at you with a mixture of curiosity and anticipation, wondering what kind of personality lies beneath your calm exterior. The feeling that she's known you for much longer than just today grows stronger with each passing moment, and it isn't long before Olivia starts to feel more comfortable around you than ever before.

Finally, they arrive at the beach, and as soon as her tires hit the sandy shore, Olivia can't help but whoop in excitement. "Alright everyone!" she calls out, waving her arms over her head. "Our fearless leader has arrived! And by 'leader', I mean me," she adds with a playful laugh as you both get out of the car.

Her posse is already there, stretched out on their towels and looking excited for some fun in the sun. Olivia glances back at you before walking over to join them, her confident stride matched only by the genuine smile plastered across her face. "Hey guys!" she greets them brightly, throwing an arm around a few of them as she sprawls out on the beach next to them.

And so begins another perfect summer day in Newport Beach with Olivia Kimberley Cunningham by your side...

As they settle in on the beach, Olivia watches you take in your surroundings with interest. She wonders what you're thinking about this place and if you like it as much as she does. Her gaze drifts back to yours occasionally, curious but not overbearing, enjoying the easy camaraderie that seems to be developing between them.

After a while, they all decide to take a dip in the ocean. Olivia grins widely and practically bounces on her towel as she says, "C'mon, you gotta join us! It's not fun unless everyone is involved." With that, she strips down to her bathing suit and wades into the water, beckoning for you to follow.

At first glance, Olivia's eyes widen slightly in surprise at the sight of your toned and muscular body covered in scars and wounds. She quickly tries to remind herself that it's none of her business why you have them or what might have caused them. But she can't help but wonder...

Ignoring her own curiosity, Olivia focuses on enjoying the water and splashing around with you. "So," she says casually between waves, "do you like it here in Newport Beach?" She looks over at you expectantly, hoping that you'll reciprocate with some small talk or share your thoughts about anything else.

Hearing you say that you like it here in Newport Beach puts her at ease a little bit more. "Well, I'm glad," she replies with a smile, before suddenly being pushed into the water by one of her friends. Laughing loudly, Olivia surfaces and throws a handful of water at you in retaliation. The afternoon continues like this: laughter, splashing, and occasional bouts of small talk between them as they enjoy the warm sun on their skin and the refreshing ocean water lapping at their bodies.

Eventually, the group decides to head back to shore to grab some lunch from a nearby beachside snack shack. As everyone gathers their things and prepares to move, Olivia turns to you and says, "You wanna get something to eat with us?" Her tone is casual, almost as if it's not even a question. But there's an underlying warmth in her voice that makes it clear she hopes the answer will be yes.

Grinning, Olivia takes your hand in hers and says, "Great! I'm starving!" With everyone else in their group trailing behind them, they head over to the snack shack to place their orders. As they wait for food, Olivia finds herself chatting easily with you about all sorts of things: school, sports, movies, music... anything and everything really. It feels so natural, like this was how it always should have been between them.

After everyone has gotten what they want, they find a spot on the beach to sit down and eat their lunches. As they munch on fries and burgers, Olivia can't help but glance at you from time to time, her cheeks flushed with happiness. She wishes that this moment would never end, because for now... right here, right now... everything feels perfect.

It's been one of those days... you know, the ones where everything just falls into place. And she owes it all to you, or at least part of it. As they sit there together on the beach, finishing up their lunch, Olivia can't help but wonder if this is how life is supposed to be: simple and easy, with someone who genuinely cares about your well-being right by your side.

"Hey," she says suddenly, her voice a little shy as she asks, "Would you mind sticking around for a bit? We could maybe... I don't know... play some beach volleyball or something?" Her gaze darts down to the sand beneath her feet, unable to meet yours directly. But even if you say no, she knows that just having this moment with you is enough for now.

There's an unspoken understanding between them, a connection that runs deeper than mere words can express. And as they both stare out at the ocean together, Olivia wonders what tomorrow will bring... and if maybe, just maybe, it will be even better than today.

Smiling brightly, Olivia clasps her hands together in excitement and practically bounces in place. "Great! I'll go gather some people for a game then," she says, already turning away to look for potential players among their group. But before she can say anything else, you call out to her, making her stop dead in her tracks.

"Hey, Olivia?" your voice is soft but sincere as you meet her gaze. "Thanks... for today." She blushes slightly under the warmth of your words and feels a tiny flutter in her stomach. It's moments like these that make her realize how special this day - this whole week, even - has been with you by her side.

With a grin on her face, she nods understandingly and whispers back, "You're welcome." Then, with renewed energy, she turns around and continues to gather their group for a friendly game of beach volleyball. It's going to be an amazing afternoon... and Olivia can't wait to spend it with you.

It's clear that you have an impressive talent for volleyball, but what really stands out to her is how modest you are about it. As you effortlessly spike the ball over the net and dive to save perfectly aimed serves, she can't help but smile in admiration. It's refreshing to be around someone who doesn't need to brag or show off their skills, even when they could easily dominate the game.

She tries her best not to look too jealous as you play so well alongside her friends - after all, she knows that this isn't about winning or losing; it's about having fun together. But still... there's something about watching you move on the sand that makes her heart race a little faster than usual.

Even though her friends all think she's the best player on their team, Olivia finds herself constantly looking over at you during the game. The way your muscles flex and ripple beneath your wet skin as you dive for the ball makes it hard for her to concentrate on anything else. She tries not to stare too long though; after all, that wouldn't be very ladylike of her now, would it?

With each passing moment, the game of volleyball seems to fade into the background as something else begins to take shape between you and her... a connection deeper than friendship, stronger than any competition. As she catches your eye across the net, she feels herself blushing again, unsure what this strange feeling means but knowing that she wants it to continue for as long as possible.

Even though you're technically playing on the opposite team, there's an unspoken understanding between you and her that goes beyond words. Every time your eyes meet across the net, it feels like electricity surges through her entire body - something she's never experienced with anyone else before. As much as she enjoys playing volleyball, she can't help but wish that this game would last forever... so they could keep sharing these moments together.
