friend that would do it.
    There was a long weekend coming up for the students and everyone was excited. Olivia knew that this was the perfect opportunity to take off and be alone. She went to an old place she used to go to when she was growing up to get away. Michael, Garrett and Olivia would ride horses through the bright green fields and go swimming in the bright blue water of the lake. She figured that being there and doing all the activities that made her happy when she was young would help and it did. She knew things were going to be better from now on when she went back to school. The only thing she wasn't ready to face was her music.

CHAPTER 3
     
    When school started back up everyone was happy to see Olivia back to her old self again. She had a genuine great day for the first time since school started; she was finally able to pay attention in class and understood what the professor was talking about. Afterward, Olivia hung out with her friends and played card games. She felt like she belonged again. The only thing that felt off was the fact that she hadn't talked to Nate since that night when he told her about her mom. She knew he meant well when he tried to get her to talk about it but she wasn't ready. Plus, how he treated her was a feeling so close to home.
    The way she fit into his embrace was as if it was meant to be. Olivia had too much on her plate to even allow those thoughts to be entertained. So she did what she did best and removed herself from the situation. She just needed to get things figured out before she approached him. She was grateful for the long weekend because it helped her to get reacquainted with her old self without any pressure.
    It was close to seven o'clock when she got to the library. She walked over to the table where Nate was sitting and sat down across from him. He looked up from his book and couldn't help but smile. She looked so amazing this evening, but then again he always thought she looked amazing. "Why hello beautiful, don't you look radiant tonight. You have this glow upon you that has been missing. How are you?"
    She returned his smile and blushed a little bit as well, " I’m doing great. I haven't felt this amazing since last year. How are you doing?"
    He reached across the table and took her hands in his as if to make sure it was truly her and that he hadn't imagined the fact that her hand fit perfect in his. " I’m doing better now that you're here with me. I have missed you so much. You don't know how many times I wanted to talk to you, give you a hug and just be with you."
    She looked down at their hands as he brushed his thumb over her knuckles then looked back at him and smile d, “Why didn’t you?”
    "I guess I figured you would need, or more like want , your space. I had Garrett give me daily updates on you. I kept an eye out for you like I vowed. There's a difference in you now. The long weekend agreed with you. You aren't pretending anymore, you are actually happy. It feels like it's been forever since I've waited to see the real you again." He got up and walked around to where he was beside her and held his arms out. "Welcome home Olivia."
    She got up and welcomed his embrace and held on tight, "It's good to be back." She leaned back and looked him in the eyes, "I just wished you did approach me. But I can't hold it against you knowing why you didn't. So thank you."
    "What are you thanking me for?"
    "Everything," she smiled up at him and his heart just melted. "I just have a question for you, or really it's more like a favor. If you say no I completely understand. It's just the fact that I trust you and know that you wouldn't let me down."
    He took his finger and placed it over her lips to get her to calm down, "What's the favor Olivia?"
    She took a deep breath, "Will you help me stay on track? If I start to slip away back to where I was will you make sure that I stop before it gets to bad?"
    Nate smiled at her and nodded, "Olivia, I'm beyond proud of you and
