Olivia the next chapter when she was hoping for some freaky sex on the terrace but instead Lucas yells at her 🧍‍♀️

This Jesus I have no words 💀💀

The best part of ciwyw is he knows he’s a clown and still puts on his big ass shoes and heads to the circus for a hard day of work every day

PLEASE I FORGOT PEOPLE HEARD THEIR ARGUMENT ABSHHSNS

Noah be like: oh shit it’s not my fault tonight 🙃

Liv and Bobby’s banter is already top tier and we’re barely in it

Hi this is watchmojo and welcome to top ten most iconic Bobby moments number ten: Bobby begs Gary to choke him and liv walks in

Liv: hey boys need anything? Snacks? A condom?

that scene at the end is one of my favorite little moments too and it was entirely @bobbyboops! both the idea for the scene and that line specifically!!! that scene is almost entirely her dialog!!! i did the writing part of ciwyw for the most part but for those early chapters where i was still finding what eventually became My Style™, a lot of dialog was entirely hannah! chapter eight especially. i would say that one the heaviest of hannah’s. the whole idea of the character mrs. lewis was hers so that whole scene was fleshed out mostly by her alone.

[bobbyboops]

It makes my heart so happy to see people still enjoying ciwyw 🥰🥰

“i said i love you” for bobby and olivia!

hey thanks!!!! i have missed writing my beloved idiots. i’m glad u clearly must have missed ‘em a little too :’)

word count: 1500ish

note: bro imagine if bobby had grown a pair back in the villa and just told liv he had feelings for her? would’ve saved me a lot of writing!!!! smh. anyways, this concept is taken from a little fic/series i was planning on doing but ended up kinda scrapping (at least for now) so this is cool that i get to use a little piece of it in some way! also editing was half-assed sorry mama

───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ─────

Gary was sat on one of the stools in the boys' dressing room as he watched Bobby pace back and forth. Bobby had kind of, sort of really freaking out for almost the entire day after the text from this morning announcing the final recoupling would be that night. This was it, wasn’t it? Now or never?

“What are you so afraid of, mate?” Gary finally asked after the extended moment of silence.

Bobby came to a sudden stop, turning slightly to look at Gary directly, “I don’t know! I’m not normally like this.” He let out a sigh, “I just don’t want to risk losing her as a friend, you know? My best friend. Like, ever. I’ve never gotten on with anyone the way I do with her in my entire life.”

“Even if the feelings weren’t returned, you know damn well that Liv would still be your friend.”

“I guess.”

“But they are returned.”

Bobby rolled his eyes, “You don’t know that.”

“She fancied you when she was still with me. She told me.”

“That was… what? Like well over twenty days ago. Lucas wasn’t even here yet.”

Gary shrugged, “I dunno what to tell you other than that.” He stood up and crossed the short distance between them. He grabbed Bobby’s shoulders, speaking with the most serious tone Bobby had ever heard out of him. “Mate,” he said, “you miss 100% of the shots you don’t take.”

After a firm, friendly slap on the bicep, Gary headed out and left Bobby alone in the dressing room. It hurt more than Bobby would’ve been proud to admit. As soon as the door shut behind him, he let out a loud groan. He knew Gary was right. And he knew that if he didn’t try, he’d regret it for the rest of his life.

Bobby walked over to the full-size mirror that hung on the wall, staring at his reflection as he gave himself a pep talk. He desperately needed it. After a minute or two of a silent, internalized discussion, Bobby left the dressing room too.

He went straight to the kitchen, knowing that’s where he’d find her. Liv and Chelsea had a silly tradition of splitting a grilled cheese before every recoupling. “It’s impossible to be nervous when you’ve got a cheese toastie,” Chelsea told Olivia the night this little thing they did began. Bobby had been somehow convinced to make a few of the sandwiches for them. All it really took was a bat of Olivia’s eyelashes, along with a ‘pretty please’ in that posh accent he loved making fun of, and Bobby was somehow in front of the stove before he even realized he was doing it.

Bobby was correct, finding Liv sitting on a barstool next to Chelsea. He could’ve sworn he felt his air leave his lungs at the sight of her, already dressed with her hair and makeup done. A green dress stoned across the bust and sparkling even in the shitty fluorescent lighting of the kitchen. Her hair was curled, long and flowing down her back.

“Aye, Livie,” he said, trying to sound as casual as he could and not like he was absolutely bricking it. Liv turned around, eyebrows raised and suggesting he continue. Bobby rubbed his hands together nervously before he continued, “Do you think I could pull you for a chat?”

Chelsea pouted from beside Olivia, “Bobby, babes, we’re having our toastie.”

“I know, I know. I’m sorry. It’s uh, kinda important.”

Liv didn’t need to hear anything else, hopping off of her stool at the sound of the word important. She smiled at him, “Terrace?”

Bobby nodded, “Yeah. Terrace.”

His heart was pounding so hard in his chest that he wouldn’t be surprised if Liv could hear it from the few feet away she was as they climbed the stairs to go up to the terrace. Once finally up there, they sat in silence for a moment, both of them staring off at a particularly breathtaking sunset that filled the Spanish sky with shades of pink and purple. The way the light danced across Olivia’s pretty face gave Bobby the little shot of courage he so desperately needed.

Bobby sighed, “So...”

“So...” She repeated, turning in her spot to face him directly.

“I, um...” he stopped and his lips snapped shut, suddenly realizing he didn’t really have a plan here. Bobby groaned and ran his fingers through his dreads, suddenly looking off into the distance again.

“Are you okay?”

“Yeah, yeah. I’m fine.” He went quiet again, making this claim hard for Olivia to believe. His mouth twisted to the side as he went through his options. Much like most of Bobby’s plans in life, this one came down to ‘well... fuck it.’

He finally looked back to Olivia, their eyes fixed on each other. Bobby took a second to take a deep breath before he spoke, “I love you.”

Liv’s eyebrows shot up, “What?”

“I said I love you.”

“What do you mean, ‘you love me?’”

Bobby’s heart rate managed to pick up even more than it already was, now convinced it might burst right out of his chest and into Liv’s hands. As if she didn’t already have it there anyway. He averted his gaze for a split second, but not for long when he reminded himself that he was too far to back down now. Eyes locked once again, he answered her, “I mean I’m in love with you.”

Olivia didn’t say anything, not at all helping Bobby’s internal meltdown. She just stared at him, still a little wide-eyed as she tried to process what he just said. The silence sent his mind into overdrive, forcing word vomit out of him, “I know this is so sudden and so out of left field. Like, I’m sorry to just throw this at you like this but fuck... I just know I’d regret it until the day that I die if I didn’t say something, if I didn’t try. I’m not expecting anything out of you, Olivia.” She noted the use of her full name, which he never called her. He continued, “I’m really not. I just needed to say it, you know? Whatever you-”

Bobby’s spill was cut off by a knock on the terrace door, Lottie making a come-on motion, signaling that it was time to go down to the fire pit. Bobby’s heart sank as he realized he didn’t even get a response out of Liv. He had no idea if he had just fucked himself, and he wouldn’t until her phone rang with a text once they got down there.

They went back downstairs together, tension thick enough to be cut with a knife as they walked without saying a word.

After another twenty or so minutes of the producers getting everything set up passed. Hope had already made her obvious choice of Noah. Liv’s phone dinged as soon as the couple sat down together.

Bobby watched her intently, looking at her for the first time since they got settled by the fire pit. He nervously drummed his fingers on his thigh as he waited for her to speak. He wasn’t sure if he had ever been more nervous than he was in that moment in his entire life.

“Well, um,” Liv started, stopping as quickly as she began. Bobby could see the gears shifting behind her eyes, clearly making this decision off the cuff. He was unsure if that was more likely to work in his favor or not.

Olivia carried on, “I thought that I was going to stand here tonight and know exactly what I was going to do. And well, I’ve always been one to go with my gut, follow my heart or whatever.” Bobby shifted nervously when she looked at him. “I don’t know. I could stand up here and ramble, but I think I rather just cut to the chase, yeah?”

When Olivia looked to Lucas, the furrow in his brow was deep-set, only worsening the guilt she already felt for the decision she was about to make. She held eye contact with him, “and I am so, so, so sorry...” Her eyes moved to Bobby, “but uh, the guy I’d like to couple up with is... Bobby.”

“What!?” Lucas barked. “Are you kidding? You’re kidding, right?”

“Luke, I’m sorry.”

“You didn’t even have the decency to dump me with some dignity?” Lucas asked in a clear state of disbelief.

“Bobby literally just pulled me to talk right before we came down here. I didn’t-”

Olivia didn’t get to finish what she was saying, cut off by Lucas standing up and storming off. He nearly shoulder checked her as he passed. Her eyes snapped shut with the sound of the sliding glass door slamming as he went inside, so loud it could be heard all the way by the fire pit. It almost surprised her that the door didn’t shatter with pure force.

“Well,” Chelsea said with a clap of her hands, trying her best to move things along, “Where were we? Bobby?”

All eyes shifted to Bobby, still in his seat and utterly shaken to his core by Liv actually picking him. Their eyes met again, and he finally hopped up before making his way over to her. What was he supposed to do now? He didn’t think this far ahead. Bobby also didn’t plan on the whole Lucas tantrum, but hey, he didn’t really plan any of this, did he?

Luckily, Olivia tossed her arms around his waist as if nothing happened, and finally spoke directly to him, voice almost a whisper, “You have some ‘splaining to do, mister.”

A warm chuckle rumbled in his chest, “I know.”

Summary: What happens when Lucas forgets Liv’s birthday? Can he pull it off? Or will Liv finally see that maybe this relationship isn’t the right one?

“What do you mean you forgot her birthday?” Bobby’s eyebrows shot up into his hairline as his eyes widened in surprise. He could hardly believe what he was hearing on the other end of the line. How on earth did this prick honestly forget his own girlfriends birthday? Just another solidification in his mind that this man did not deserve his best friend. “I sent you the invitation weeks ago Lucas, I’m sure glad I had the common sense to make sure you were coming.”

“Look, it has been a busy few weeks at the practice! I have a lot on my plate right now!” Lucas carded his hand through his hair in frustration. Things had just barely started improving between them after their trip to Borabora. Things had been rough for a while, and he wanted nothing more than to continue fixing things, but forgetting her birthday certainly wasn’t going to help that. “Some of us have more things to do than obsess over someone else girlfriend.”

The unnecessary jab did its job. Bobby’s tongue rolling in the inside of his cheek, jaw clenching as he took a deep calming breath before a smug smile made its way onto his face. He had the upper hand in this situation after all. “That is no way to talk to someone who is trying to save your ass here Lucas. I would try being a little nicer if I were you.”

His voice dripped of sarcasm and Lucas hated that he could picture the smug look on his face on the other end of the line. He wanted nothing more than to wipe that smirk off personally, but now was not the time. Now it was Lucas’ turn to clench his jaw, he took a deep breath rolling his eyes, swallowing his pride.

“You’re right… I’m sorry okay? I'm just frustrated with myself right now. The party is tomorrow, what do you need me to do?”

“I’ll let everyone know that the party is moved to Olivia’s flat, that way it looks like you are the one who planned this. Olivia would know you would never agree to throw a party at my house. Just show up.”

Lucas let out a puff of air, he wasn’t sure why Bobby was once again trying to save his ass. Though he knew it was definitely for Olivia’s sake and not his own.

“What time do you need me there? I can let you in.”

Bobby let out a little laugh at that. “Don’t worry about that mate, I have my own key.”

He knew exactly what he was doing, and maybe it was petty, but he also knew he was Lucas’ only lifeline right now so he felt perfectly within his rights to throw this in his face.

“Right...” Bobby relished in the note of rage in Lucas’ voice. “Well then I guess I will see you tomorrow.”

“Mmhmm bye now.”

Lucas ended the call by slamming the end call button with so much force he was slightly concerned he would crack his screen. Clicking the call button on his office phone to let his assistant know he would be out of the office for the rest of the day. He had to find a gift, and fast.

******

Olivia’s birthday had gone off without a hitch. The party was a perfect surprise, being surrounded by everyone who was important to her was exactly what she needed. She couldn’t believe Lucas had pulled off this party. She didn’t think he even knew how to get into contact with more than half of the people in attendance. This whole party was entirely out of character for him, but she felt so happy and loved knowing how much effort must have gone into pulling everything together. No one had ever made that kind of effort for her in the past.

The only part of the night that hadn’t been perfection, was the absolutely grotesque ring Lucas had picked out for her gift. Purple of all colors. But she was determined to not let it ruin her night. That was until all of her guests had left for the night and she took a closer look at the ring. She noticed the inscription on the inside of the ring. “I love you Olive.” Ice suddenly ran through her veins, it was like she had been plunged into the frozen depths of the ocean. The higher you climb the further you fall, and Olivia felt her heart hit the floor. How had he managed to pull of this entire party, but somehow miss that his gift didn’t even have her correct name?

Lucas watched as Olivia’s face fell into a deep scowl.

“What’s wrong babe?”

“Who the hell is Olive?”

“What?”

“The inscription on this ring. It says Olive.”

“No… It says Olivia.”

“I am perfectly capable of reading Lucas, and this ring says Olive.”

Lucas rushed to her side, looking in horror as he clearly read “I love you Olive.”

“How did you not notice?”

“Liv, babe, I’m so sorry.”

Olivia’s face softened, maybe it was an honest mistake. That was until she started to think more about the party.

“How did you pull this party off?”

Lucas looked up in shock. “What do you mean?”

“How did you get a hold of all of my friends? Especially when you don’t even know their names?” Olivia voiced as she remembered Lucas calling her best friend Carli, Carrie earlier in the evening. In fact the more she thought about it, the more she realized that not one thing about the party made her believe it was his doing.

“Liv...”

“You didn’t plan this party did you?”

“Liv.” Lucas reached out a hand to sooth her, and flinched as she backed away from him.

“No answer me! You didn’t plan this party did you?”

Lucas hung his head in shame before answering. “No… I didn’t.” Refusing to meet her eye as he shuffled from foot to foot. He knew he was caught.

Olivia absentmindedly nodded her head as she put the pieces together. “Did you forget?”

“NO! Olivia… I...” Lucas could feel panic rising in his chest.

“Did you forget? Or did you just not care?” Her eyes were slicing through him in her anger. She let out a humorless laugh at his silence. “I’m not sure which one would be worse, they are both such terrible thoughts to have.”

“Olivia… I… I know it’s not an excuse, I just had so much on my plate. I.”

“You should go.” Olivia said cutting him off.

“What? Babe no please. Let’s talk about this.”

“Lucas I’m done talking to you about this tonight. Please go.”

Lucas hung his head nodding slightly “Alright, I’ll… I’ll call you tomorrow?” Even to his own ears it sounded more like a question than a statement.

Olivia didn’t answer, just folded her arms over her chest and made an eye movement towards the door. She watched him leave, feeling her anger turn to hurt as tears pooled in her eyes. She needed her best friend. Making her way over to the couch she scrolled down to his contact pressing call.

Bobby answered on the second ring. “Hello?”

Liv felt the lump in her throat, causing her to just sit in silence for a moment.

“Lass? Are you there? Is everything alright?”

“No...” Olivia croaked out.

“No you aren't there? Or no you aren't alright?”

This made a soft giggle leave Liv’s mouth. “Shut up, I’m sad right now.”

“What happened?” Bobby’s voice was laced in concern.

“I know you planned my party.”

Bobby shot up out of his bed at that. “What are you talking about? Lucas planned it.”

“You and I both know that is a lie.”

Bobby took in a deep breath. “Okay it was me… so?”

Tears streamed down her face once more thinking about the amount of thought and time that went into putting the party together. “Why would you cover for him? Why let him take the credit?”

Bobby thought for a moment before responding. “I…you deserved to have the best birthday.” He willed himself to continue. “And to be honest Livvie, I would do just about anything to make you smile…”

There was a heavy silence between them for a moment, but Olivia couldn’t deny that his admission brought a smile to her face, trying to ignore the guilt pulling at her stomach for the amount of butterflies fluttering from the thought alone.

“Thank you boops… I don’t know what I did to deserve you…”

Bobby let out the breath he had been holding once she responded. Relief washing over his features.

“Anyway, I am pretty wiped, I think I am going to head to bed.”

“Uh yeah okay, Happy birthday Livvie.”

“Thank you.”

“I’ll talk to you tomorrow?”

“Can’t wait. Night boops.”

Bobby hung up the phone, and for the first time in a long time he felt incredibly hopeful about the future, while liv felt more uncertain than ever. Was Lucas the right choice? She wasn’t so sure anymore.
