#wrenxolivia

olivia was excited about getting dressed up and hitting the clubs with the other girls. she needed to not think about jesse for a bit and she needed to just have some fun with friends. and, she needed to just give him space and she needed to remind herself that he wanted out. he wanted them to break up. olivia finished the wine bottle that she had brought with her for the ride and when the uber pulled up outside of the club they were hitting up first, olivia gave the driver a nice chunk of cash before climbing out of the vehicle and brushing her hands over her dress, before looking around for her friends. when she saw gabrielle, she called out for her, " gabbie, " before she ran over to where the girl was. "  hey. wow, you look bomb. even better in real life and that says a lot because you looked breathtaking.”

Gabrielle was a bit nervous about going out without Chase. It might have just been her anxiety acting up as she fought every impulse in her brain telling her not to go. She didn't like being away from Gene but she just kept telling herself the boys got it, they can take care of her. Gabrielle got ready and took an Uber to the meeting place, she got out with a smile. "Livvy, hey, You look fantastic too." She said with a smile. Marina was pretty excited to go out with the girls. Ever since she’s been back in town, all she wanted to do was party and let loose. But she also had to remind herself that things were going good with Antonio. She couldn’t mess that up. Maybe she’d cave and text him to come, but as for now, she wanted to focus on the girls. Once she got out of her Uber she walked over to Olivia and Gabrielle, “You guys look amazing! This is gonna be so fun. We definitely deserve a nice break like this.” 

Stevie would have came with Juliette, but her girlfriend said she wanted to surprise her with the outfit she was wearing. She knew the other girls could get a little wild, but Stevie was here for the ride. “Hey guys, thanks for inviting me. Looking amazing, as usual.” she said with a smile. 

Juliette had gone to her brothers room to see if he has any wine. He did not. He gave her two double shots of tequila. He agreed to drop her off as a repayment for her driving him and Lexi a month ago. “Ladies” said Juliette showing up in a black body suit and a short leather skirt and she was already giggly. She put her arm around Stevie’s waist, “Hello beautiful” she whispered into Stevie’s ear before she hiccuped. Juliette put her hands back on her own waist, “everyone proud of the outfit? I think i suit the dress code” she said with a smile as she spun around once. olivia turned around and the grin on her lips widened s she looked over at stevie, to see her reaction. a giggle fell from her lips as she put an arm around stevie's waist. "  wow, look at you ms. hastings, you look incredible, "  she said and whistled before a laugh fell from the girl's mouth as she watched their friend spin. "  you did amazing, juliette. we are proud of you. now, " she said and clapped her hands together. the girls looked bomb – " ready to go inside and cause some havoc?  " she asked and wiggled her brows before she started to walk towards the entrance of the club, her stride was confident. olivia was used to this. before she met jesse, she had partied a lot and she also knew how to flirt her way in. she had done it since she was 16. Gabrielle'a jaw dropped when she saw Juliette. "Even better in person." She said with a smile as she tossed a wink at Juliette. "Yes, lets get inside." She said with a smile. Gabrielle had done this quite often during her party phase when she would piss her parents off. Since then she had calmed down a lot, thanks to Genevieve. Gabrielle talked to the bouncer with a smile and handed over her ID before getting into the club, waiting for the others to follow. Before heading towards the bouncer, Marina popped a pill and took her fake ID out. She gave the bouncer a sweet smile and handed them the ID before walking into the club. Stevie raised her brows at Juliette, she couldn’t hide the smile that was growing on her face. “Beautiful? Me? The beautiful one here is you. You look amazing.” she whispered back. It was so hard to hide the relationship she had with Juliette, especially with her looking like that. Sure her friends knew about it, but she was still the mayor’s daughter. Everyone knew her. She handed her girlfriend the fake ID she got for her before showing hers to the bouncer, “This one’s for you.” she said before walking in. “You guys wanna get some drinks first?”  Juliette showed her ID at the door, "Miss Hastings ... or should I say Miss Henderson" said the bouncer and Juliette looked up at him with big sad eyes. "Tell your brother he owes me" the bouncer said with a nod. Juliette felt like she finally caught her breath as she followed Stevie in. "That was so scary, I never want to do that ever again" said Juliette as she met back up with the girls. "Drinks please" she replied as they all headed towards the bar. "What are we thinking?" Juliette asked with a small hiccup.  olivia stood on the inside of the club, looking at her friends and when the bouncer stopped juliette, she bit her bottom lip. she was ready to jump the bouncer, if she needed to. when she got in, and the girls were all reunited, olivia leaned over to juliette and spoke loudly, " i would have gladly flashed him to get you in, you know, "  she said and laughed, obviously teasing her a little bit before they headed towards the bar. olivia pulled out her card and turned to look at the girls. "  okay, drinks on me. as a thank you, for being amazing and incredible friends. " turning to look at the bartender, "  give these ladies whatever they want and put it on this,  " she said, holding the card up, " and we want five shots too, pretty please,. " she said and batted her lashes at the man.  Gabrielle watched as Juliette got stopped. "And that is why you should invest in a real fake ID with your real name on it." Gabrielle said with a laugh. "But see, you got in anyway because bouncers really don't care." She added in. "Flashing would not have been necessary, I could have slipped him a bill or two." Gabrielle added in. Gabrielle followed Olivia and the others to the bar as they got drinks.  Marina smiled at the two girls once they met up with them, “Juliette having a fake ID is probably hard in general since the whole town knows who she is.” she said with a laugh. “But I guess you’ll have to thank Montag for this one. Who would’ve thought?” Marina took hold of her shot and clinked her glass with the girls before downing the shot. 

“Sorry, that’s on me. I thought your name was too obvious so I tried Henderson. It’s a nice last name.” she said with a smile. Stevie took her shot with the rest of them and looked over at Juliette, “You want something else or are you taking it slow? I know how much of a lightweight you are.” she teased the girl, nudging her side gently. 

Juliette nodded, "Yeah, I think that guy has bounced a fundraiser at our house" said the girl with a sigh. "But yeah, thanking Montag who would have thought he would help me out tonight" replied the girl as they did shots together. "No it was cute, I like that name" said Juliette putting her hand on the other girl's shoulder. "I can do something else, I'm doing okay" she said, up to the challenge. She didn't want to seem like such a dork in front of all of them. "But sugary, I think that's smart. Something that covers up the alcohol taste" the girl said with a nod and a smile. "Once we're done up here, dancing right?" she asked Olivia with a huge smile on her face. She wanted her friend to have a really good night. 

olivia giggled softly. juliette was adorable, honestly. once we're done up here, dancing, right? nodding her head, the blonde pushed her hair away from her face. "  oh yeah, definitely!  " she said and took the shot glass, throwing the content back before she turned to look at the bartender. " hey, handsome,  " olivia said and flashed a bright smile at him. "  wanna give us another one?  " she asked and giggled, and it didn't take much before she got the glasses filled. " thank you darling, "  she said as she winked at him. turning to look at the girls, she held up the shot glass and said, " here's to a girl's night we'll never forget!  "  she said and then winked at juliette, making sure only she could see it. " lets find somewhere to sit and then go dance.  "  Gabrielle smiled as she threw back her first shot and waited for the second. She looked around at the club full of people, guys and girls, and it made her a bit nervous. She knew once she got a bit more drunk, she would feel a bit better. She took the second shot and threw it back with a smile. "Yes, lets go dance." She said with a nodd.  Marina noticed the expression on Gabrielle's face as the girl looked around the club. She wasn't aware that Gabrielle got nervous in such crowded places, but she placed her hand on her shoulder and gave her a friendly smile. "If you ever need to take a breather or go to the bathroom, let me know. I know I need breaks every now and then." she said, trying to reassure the girl. 

"Yes to dancing!" Stevie handed Juliette the second glass as Olivia got more for the group. She took the second drink and waited until Juliette was finished as well. "There's an empty spot right over there." she pointed out. As they were all walking over to go get a spot to sit, Stevie leaned closer to Juliette, "I can't believe I have to keep my hands to myself when you look this good. What a tease." she whispered in the girl's ear.

Juliette braved up and took the second shot, "I don't think I should have a glass of anything anymore" she said quietly to Stevie. She giggled when Olivia winked at her, "Rinaaaaaa" the girl called out, "And Brielllllllllleeee" she was just so happy and she put her arms around the two and smiled. "I am just soooo happy we're all here to celebrate Livvyyyyyy" she said with a small woooo coming out of her mouth. She was just like her mother. When they headed over to the table to sit for a moment, Stevie got close to Juliette and the girl immediately blushed, "First of all, I want you to know just in case. There are six shots of alcohol in my body right now" she said touching her own nose and then touching Stevies, "scientifically, I should be dead. But I'm not. I'm a fighter and it's girls night!" she slurred with a happy expression on her face. "Third of all" Juliette added, loosing track of her talking points, "people have to go to the bathroom more when they're drunk, so we could go to the bathroom and not go to the bathroom as many times as you'd like" she said with a less than innocent smile as the two sat down with the rest of the girls.  olivia giggled at how happy juliette seemed. i am just soooo happy we're all here to celebrate livvyyyy she shook her head. " celebrate me?  " she said and looked at her friend. "  what are we celebrating? " she questioned curiously. when they headed over to the table, olivia looked at the two of them and smiled at how cute juliette and stevie were. shaking her head, olivia sat down at the table, leaning her forearms against the table in front of her when the bartender came over and gave them the drinks they had ordered. "  i can't believe we haven't done this before now.  "  Gabrielle let out a little laugh seeing Juliette. "Someones fucked up already." She said with a wide smile. "We are celebrating your singleness!" Gabrielle said with a smile. "You are a free woman, now lets go get you a hottie to take home tonight." Gabrielle said with a laugh. "I know. Its so much fun." Marina giggled as she saw Juliette call out to the girls and put her arms around her. She missed hanging out with Juliette. They had grown apart for a bit, but she was glad they were reconnecting, and now Marina had gotten to know Olivia and Gabrielle better. It felt good. "Tonight is about you. I already see a couple cuties nearby." she said as she was scanning the club for cute girls and guys. 

Stevie took another drink as the bartender came around, the alcohol was slowly starting to kick in. "Do not tempt me with a good time, Hastings." she said with a small smirk. "Once everyone's doing their own thing, we could sneak off for a bit. I'm sure no one will notice." Stevie would take any opportunity to get some alone time with Juliette. "We deserve some fun too."  "Uh no you're fucked up already" joked Juliette, she knew she was the drunk one but it was still fun. "And yeah Livvy! Celebrating that you're single and can kiss as many boys as you'd like tonight!!" she encouraged. She was on team get back together, but Olivia deserved to have some fun first. Once they were sitting, Juliette put her hand on Stevie's thigh, "I would agree, let's go" she said faking getting up before sitting back down, "This night is all about Olivia, not about my gay agenda" she said quietly to Stevie. "Are we ready to dance?" she asked the group, she wasn't having another drink so she was ready to go.  olivia turned around and looked at the people in the club, her eyes looking at a cute brunette in the corner. she smiled at him then a laugh fell from her lips. she shook her head and turned to look at the girls. it felt wrong, to look at other guys but she was single and jesse didn't want her anymore. she should be able to flirt with guys. are we ready to dance?  " yes, " she said, clapping her hands together excitedly before taking a sip of the drink. she got up again, swinging slightly but making sure to not fall over. she sat down and bit her bottom lip, as the next couple of words that fell from her lips, weren't what she had expected, " do you think jesse has hooked up with someone? " olivia looked at her friends and bit her bottom lip. "  i know i said i wouldn't talk about him, i just... it kind of feels a little wrong. " she then shook her head and sighed, " i'm... i'm sorry, let's dance,  " she said and put a smile on her lips again as she grabbed gabrielle's hand and marina, before pulling them towards the dance floor.   Gabrielle looked at Olivia. "Does it matter if he has? You are single now. He gave you up. It shouldn't feel wrong." Gabrielle said looking at Olivia. She personally didn't know, but she also didn't think it mattered. "Like I said earlier, You are free." She added in as the moved to the dance floor.  Marina smiled as Olivia took everyone to the dance floor. "There's nothing wrong about it. You could do whatever you want, have some fun, girl! This is your night. Plus, it never hurts to make him a little jealous." she winked at Olivia. She wasn't the best influence, but she thought Olivia deserved a fun night. Stevie looked over at Olivia and sighed. If she was completely sober, Stevie wouldn't say it, but she was feeling a little rebellious right now. "Um, actually... He may have... already hooked up with someone else." she said awkwardly. She turned over to Juliette, "Sorry, I never got to tell you. I wasn't sure when I should tell anyone, but Jesse has royally pissed me off." she shrugged carelessly. "It's that cheerleader, Savvy."  "Oh my god! Men are the absolute worst! That is such garbage" said Juliette in a drunk stupor. She was so annoyed by that, Jesse had the most amazing girl ever (Stevie not included) and he just ... dropped her? Out of no where? "You SHOULD make out with someone!" she said confidently, "Can someone tell me which boys are cute? Like cute enough to make out with? Lets get them over here" she added addressing the girl as they all started to dance.  olivia nodded her head at what gabrielle said. " yeah. no, you're right. it shouldn't matter. i mean, i'm single. he's single. he's allowed to do whatever he wants, " olivia said and nodded, giving the girl who had spoken a soft mile. she looked at marina who said that she should do whatever she wanted and it never hurt to make him a little jealous. a soft laugh fell from olivia's lips as they went to the dance floor. but then, the next words caused olivia to stumble a little. " oh. " olivia blinked and looked at stevie, before swallowing against the lump in her throat. she had to admit, it had hurt, but at the same time, he hadn't really done anything wrong. " savvy.. the petite brunette?  " olivia asked, her voice soft. "  i've seen her around. she's pretty,  " she said and nodded, before sinking her teeth into her bottom lip. " no, no, he's not. not really. i mean, he didn't do anything wrong. we're both single, you know? he's... he's allowed to hook up with whoever, " she said as she could feel the walls around her heart begin to re-build. as the girls started to dance, olivia decided that she didn't want this to ruin the rest of the night. " let's not talk about jesse anymore.  this is about us, having fun. i'll deal with the whole jesse thing tomorrow, " she spoke softly as the music turned to a more upbeat one.  Gabrielle jaw dropped as Stevie dropped the news. "Ouch, was not expecting that one." She mumbled. "Yeah, It doesn't matter Liv, You are both single and free to do what you want. Now you don't have to weird or guilty about it." Gabrielle said trying to keep it positive. Maybe that was the drama chase was talking about in the guy group the other day. Weren't Jesse and Stevie close? why would she expose him so hard? Gabrielle knew the group has a whole was going through a lot and she saw how it affected Chase. "Forget Jesse. Have about you go get a taste of him." Gabrielle said pointed to a hot guy on the dance floor.  Marina looked at Stevie with wide eyes, she didn't expect that to come out of her mouth. She wasn't exactly one to start any potential drama, but maybe it was just the alcohol taking over. Marina didn't exactly know how bad the drama was in the other groupchat. "We're gonna find you the hottest guy here." she looked over at Olivia with a sad smile. 

Stevie felt pretty bad telling Olivia about it, but maybe it would help her move on. She knew this could potentially bite her in the ass, but maybe it wouldn't. Stevie didn't care right now. She looked over at the boy Gabrielle pointed out and nodded, "Yeah, he looks... attractive." she said as more of a question. "Any guys in school you find attractive? I could always trying hooking you up with them."  Juliette was livid about the whole thing, how dare he hook up with someone. But she put the rage away and was supportive of her friend, "yeah someone you can tote around school who can carry your books and stuff" Juliette said as she tried to be helpful. Juliette moved her hand to interlock her fingers with Stevie's for comfort. "Yeah, Stevie knows all the boys. There's got to be a guy around school who would drop everything for you" she added.  Olivia made a mental note to talk to stevie, to tell her work things out with Jesse because she hated knowing that they weren’t on talking terms. Listening to what the others were saying, she hummed and looked over at the guy in question. “ he’s cute. “ but nothing like Jesse, she thought. When Juliette said that stevie had to know someone at school, she shook her head. “ I’m good. Honestly. “ taking a deep breath, she then went over to the guy they had talked about and introduced herself. A couple of minutes later, she leaned in and pressed her lips against his. Pulling back, she thanked him and went back over to where the girls were. “ now, let’s dance?” It was weird. Olivia hasn’t kissed anyone but Jesse the last couple of months. It felt wrong. But, Olivia needed to move on. Besides, Jesse didn’t want her and he most likely wouldn’t care if she kissed someone. She couldn’t help but wonder if he thought about her? Even the tiniest bit. Though, she wouldn’t be able to sleep with anyone. Not yet anyway. Gabrielle listened to the conversation progress. Once Olivia walked away to talk to the guy she turned and looked at the other girls. "So..." She trailed of awkwardly. She knew tonight was supposed to be fun, but she just felt a ot of tension, but it was mostly in her head. "shit be crazy" She said with a soft smile. Once Olivia got back Gabrielle smiled and nodded. "Yeah sounds good."  Marina downed her drink before she got on the dance floor with the girls. From the pill she took earlier to all the drinks she took, Marina was pretty out of it. She danced to the music with a big smile on her face for a while, before taking her phone out. Marina suddenly had the urge to text Antonio. She was feeling great and her confidence was booming, so she thought he'd appreciate it. Stevie danced with Juliette for a bit before wrapping her arm around the girl's waist to pull her in close, "Bathroom time?" she whispered in her ear. She couldn't wait any longer, she wanted Juliette now. "I just need you all to myself."  While Olivia was off smooching that guy, Juliette couldn’t help but things were awkward. She worried there was something she didn’t know about, and she wondered if Stevie actually wanted Olivia and Jesse together... but then her thoughts were distracted by Stevie’s hand on her waist, being pulled in close. She giggled and nodded when Stevie said bathroom time, “as you wishhh” she said drunkenly as the two scurried off to the bathroom, “we’ll be back in like 5, I gotta pee!!” she called out to the group.  Olivia was having a lot of fun. And she took both Gabrielle and marinas hand out on the dance floor, dancing along with the music playing. Honestly, this was just what she needed. A night out with her friends. For a split second, she forgot about the heartache and Jesse and EVERYTHING else.   Gabrielle put a smile on as she went out on the dance floor. She danced with the girls, periodically checking her phone for the half hour updates from Gino she forced him to do. She also periodically checked twitter while anxiously waiting for Gino's texts. She saw shit was going down but felt it was better not mentioned. - GROUP TEXT -

Wren and Chanel got into the car, he knew he was upsetting her. "I promise I'll make it up to you" he promised as he put his hand on her upper thigh, moving it under her skirt a little. "You don't even have to touch me, I'll do everything" said the boy as he deleted texts with his other hand and passed her the phone. "But you are on phone duty" he said reluctantly as he started the old family mini van. His truck didn't have enough seats. Wren leaned over and kissed her, "You're the best girlfriend of all time" he said as he gave her thigh a squeeze. Chanel had her arms crossed over her chest, pouting her lips like a little brat. She thought they were have a great night... but now Wren had to pick up a bunch of girls? One of them being Juliette Hastings? Chanel would've swatted her boyfriend's hand away, but she liked the attention too much. "Mhm." she hummed as she grabbed his phone. "Why did you have to pick them up? Couldn't Chase do this? Or like, anyone else in that groupchat of yours?" she asked, in a whiny tone. Chanel kissed Wren back and held back a smile, "I really am. I'm like, the absolute best. Just so you know, I'm only letting this slide because it's you." "Baby, I'm the one with a minivan in the garage" he said as he moved his hand up her skirt more, "I promise that there's plenty in it for you. But please dear god, no rumor mill on this?" he asked with earnest eyes. "I swear I am going to spend the next month making it up to you in sexual favors alone" said the boy moving his hand up to her cheek as they kissed. Wren put the car into drive, "So ... long story short your worst enemy is closeted, like severely. She's dating Stevie, and she's trying to come out to her parents tonight because she's very in love and very very drunk. I'm not gonna let her fuck over her living situation over it. Even Montag is closeted at home, and he might be the biggest bottom we've ever witnessed" Wren explained as he pulled up to the Hale's house and Chase popped in. "You've told her?" Chase asked as he buckled up, "Yeah it's a whole thing" he said as he looked over to Chanel. "Don't worry, Wren's just on pick up and carry. I'm on night time care, so you two can get back to bed noise" he said with a proud smile, "proud of the 10 second nut king putting himself back out there" he said with a smirk. "CHASE" said Wren as he pulled out of the driveway. Chanel looked over at Wren and noticed the expression on his face, she of course wasn't going to break his trust by blabbing her mouth to the rest of town. "Okay? I promise, I won't say anything." she said truthfully. As she listened to Wren's whole story, her mouth was completely dropped. She tried her best to avoid the Hastings, but she was completely caught off guard with all this information. Of course she knew Montag wasn't straight, but everyone knew about that whole relationship with Lexi and Kiran. "Oh... my god. Oh my god, what the fuck? Seriously? Like Stevie Summers? Striking vipers Stevie? They're in love? I cannot believe I've been missing out on this." she said with wide eyes. "Okay wow. I get it, I won't say anything. It's not like I wanna talk to her parents anyways. So the secret is safe with me." Chanel looked over at Chase once he got in the car, nodding her head as he asked if she knew about everything. "CHASE OH MY GOD!" she reached over and hit his arm. "That's not funny. It's like, really traumatic, okay?" she whispered to her best friend. "Okay, so you're picking up Jonah & Jesse?" she asked. "Or is Jesse a no?" she asked. Wren had been pretty stressed about his groups drama lately so she didn't know if Jesse was coming along, especially with Olivia being at the club. "It's really cute" said Wren with a small smile. The boy just loved love, it made him so happy to see people happy and in love, especially because he was so in love with The Chanel Hampton that it was stupid. "You are the best, Chanel Hampton. That's why I l-like you so much" said Wren, stumbling over the words. Before he knew it Chase was in the car making fun of how he nut early. "Chase mind your own fucking business or I am going to start bullying you at school for shits and giggles" Wren threatened playfully. "Fair enuf" replied Chase with a laugh, it was way too funny to make fun of the quick nut. Wren gritted his teeth when Chanel asked about Jesse, "Just Jonah" he replied quickly, not adding anything else. "Do not get me started on that, I'll get heated" Chase added before also shutting up. Wren pulled into Jonah's driveway and clicked open the sliding door. Chanel was glad that Stevie was at least happy, and if this somehow took Juliette's mind off of everything that goes down in her family, Chanel was pretty cool with it too. She knew being with Wren helped her a lot, maybe it was the same with Juliette. She looked over at Wren with raised brows, a small smile forming on her face. She thought he was going to say it, but he didn't. She had been too scared to tell him, but she had been feeling ready to tell him he loved her since the day they got together. Crazy, but maybe that's what happens when you have a crush on someone for the majority of your life. "I like you too, babe." she nodded and looked out the window awkwardly. "At least I'm down to dress up for sex." she told Chase as she immaturely stuck out her tongue. That was not something she really discussed with Wren, but she was down to clown. "Right... Got it. No talk of the other brother." she said, referring to Jesse. Once his friends arrived, Jonah got into the car, looking like a wreck. This was such a stressful night, and he had a test tomorrow in chemistry. He could not believe this. "I have brought water for everyone. Stay hydrated, please. This has been a very stressful night for us all." he got into the car and let out a sigh. "Oh, hi Chanel. Do you... know?" he asked. "Hey." Chanel gave the boy a small smile. "That Juliette's gay and in love? Yes." she nodded once. "Ahh. Just perfect." Jonah couldn't imagine how Juliette was going to feel in the morning. "We have the address to this club, right?"

"That's a low blow, we had a full on fight the other night because she basically told me I'm an Olivia and she's a Jesse like I took a buzzfeed quiz, and thennnnn she told me she won't dress up to fuck" said Chase shaking his head, "This week has been a fucking shit show". Once Jonah got in the car, he looked like shit. "Dude are you okay?" asked Chase as the car pulled out of the driveway. "Hey it's a fair trade for her not waking up the Hastings at this hour and getting potentially kicked out or sent to boarding school" said Wren, his Nana had seen Montag around town and talked about the family at dinner one time. It sounded pretty bad, and through what Stevie had said .. he was nervous for the two. "Chanel has the location pulled up that Stevie sent" said the boy, "it's one tab over" he instructed. Before they knew it, they were outside the club. "I’m just on edge right now." Chanel said with a pout, the girl just wanted sex. Jonah then looked over at Chase and shook his head. "I'm gonna be honest, no." he shook his head at Chase. "All this shit with Jesse happened on twitter, and now he's mad at me, but now he's also Jordan. Then this happened. Just a little too much for my anxious brain to take in." Jonah nodded in agreement with Wren, "Yeah I know, but her initial reaction won't be great. N-No offense, Chanel. You're great. But... you know. Juliette's just..." Chanel rolled her eyes, "You don't have to explain, I'm very aware of how she feels about me." Once they got to the club, Chanel walked up to the bouncer and showed her fake ID. She wasn't sure if everyone else had one so she simply batted her eyelashes and smiled sweetly at the bouncer. "They're cool, right?" she pointed to the boys, before the bouncer let them all through. "Wow, thank you so much." she said before dropping the act and walking in. "Alrighty, they can't be too hard to find. Stevie's tall, just look for her." Wren gave her a pouty face in return, he knew this is not what she wanted. Chase put a hand on Jonah’s shoulder, “don’t worry once we get them all home safe you can get some sleep, your brother is going to be okay. I promise” said the boy. He didn’t understand the severity of the situation at all, but he had seen some alarming tweets. They got into the club with ease, Wren not only looked older but he had a fake as well. Chases fake looked horrible, and he was very glad Chanel was here. Gabrielle said she got the girls together, but they were a little all over the place. “Livvy!” said Wren, “you all ready to get home?” He asked. After the last post in Instagram, Olivia’s phone had died so she made sure to stay around the girls. It also meant she hadn’t seen the drama with Jesse online. Turning her head around, she smiled softly as wren approached her. “ wreeeeen hey!” Olivia was drunk but in a good mood. Well, as good as one could be. She hugged him tightly. “I’m ready to gooooo.” Gabrielle tried wrangling up the girls but they were all so drunk and kept moving or running away. She took an exhale as some guy came up to her and put his hands on her hips from behind. Gabrielle spun around and stepped back but this man wouldn't leave her alone. She pushed him away again just as she spotted Chase. Marina was having a great time but she hadn't noticed that some guy was being touchy with Gabrielle. If she did, she wouldn't have hesitated to swing at him. Sometimes she got extra violent when she had this much alcohol in her. Once she saw the group walk up to them, she opened her arms out, "How long have you guys been here? Come dance with us!" Stevie was dancing with Juliette, looking like two fools. Two happy fools, but fools nonetheless. "I'm so in love with you Juliette, I just want everyone to know." she said, showering the girl in quick kisses. "I'm so fucking lucky to be with you, you're the best girlfriend ever." Chase saw a guy bothering Gabrielle as he quickly bee lined for her, "Hey baby" he said as he shoved the other guy away and pulled her in for a deep kiss, his tongue moving into her mouth. He just wanted the other guy to know that she was his girl. Wren smiled, he was glad she wanted to head out. He was worried he was going to have to convince a bunch of drunk girls into his car. "What's the estimated time it will take to get the two love birds into the car? You think they'll be ready to leave?" he asked Olivia as he looked over to see the absolute shit show that was PDA. Juliette giggled when Stevie was peppering her faces with kisses, "I love you so much it's stupid" said Juliette with another giggle leaving her lips. "I can't wait to tell everybody ever" said the girl as she pulled Stevie in for a kiss. "Hey love birds, time to head out" said Wren interrupting.

Olivia shook her head, laughing softly at wrens question. “ honestly I have no idea. It’s nice though, to see them so happy. They deserve it.” Olivia smiled and looked at wren, giving him a gentle bump of the shoulder. “ you too, you know. It’s nice to see you smiling,” she said, slurring the words slightly.

“Babe!” She said as she threw her arms around him and engaged in a passionate kiss. The dude walked off angry. She pulled away from him. “God I missed you,” she said pressing another kiss to his lips. “You are all here? So we can leave now?” She asked, she was in a rush to get out of there. Stevie cupped the sides of Juliette's face as she kissed her back. She then turned her attention to Wren and put her arm around Juliette, "This is a huge day, man. This shit is gonna go down in history." she nodded her head, excited to leave the club. "I'm so fucking proud of her, it's finally the big day." she told her friend. "Let's go babe." "Yeah, I'm just worried about it. They're really drunk" said Wren to Olivia with a shrug. "You're cute, but you know who is not smiling? Chanel right now" Wren replied with a laugh as he saw her getting a drink from the bar. "We can go, but where is Marina?" said Chase as he looked around. He saw Jonah near her but Marina was still dancing up a storm. "Come on Rina" said Chase as he headed towards her, "It's time to go" Juliette stumbled out of the club with Stevie when she saw Chanel at the bar, "Fuck no" she said petulantly, letting a curse word fall from her lips. Juliette took off running down the street. "Fucking hell" said Wren as he chased after her, scooping her up and putting her over his shoulder. "NO!" she said angrily as she hit his back, "You're mean! Put me down! STEEEVIEEEEEE" she called out. " ooh gosh, poor chanel,  " olivia said and laughed softly, shaking her head in the process. " but yes, we should*definitely get going,  " she said and nodded as she started to walk in the direction of the door with wren.once they got outside, olivia's eyes widened at the commotion that juliette was making before she took off running down the street. Gabrielle followed chase around as the started to collect the group. “Do we have everyone? Can we go?” The former blond questioned. Jonah was trying to get Marina’s attention to tell her that they needed to leave, but she just wasn’t listening. Once she heard Chase’s voice, she pouted her lips, “Aww no, but Jonah and I are dancing.” she said as Jonah exhaled deeply. This was exhausting. Marina eventually gave in and went to the car with everyone else. Once Chanel had gotten inside the club, she ordered herself a drink from the bar and immediately went back to the car. She was on her phone, checking through all the twitter drama while she waited for everyone to come back. She then looked out the window to see Juliette running the opposite direction and Wren scooping her up, “What a hot mess.” she said to herself as she looked back at her phone. Once Wren came back with Juliette, Stevie shook her head. “Dude... Low blow.” she said, referring to the fact that he brought Chanel here. “It’s alright babe, I got you.” Wren put her down, "Okay Juliette, no running" said Wren as he returned her to Stevie, "I was about to have sex with her, I couldn't be like heyyyyyyy i gotta dip and you can't come" said the boy shaking his head. Wren got into the car and they all filed in, it was all a lot easier than expected. Thank god. Juliette crossed her arms and sat in the back, pouting. "So everybody have a good night?" asked Chase to the car full of people. olivia got into the car and she leaned against the seat, looking at wren and then over at the others as chase asked if everybody had a good night. "  i did. it was definitely what i needed. and i found out that jesse hooked up with someone. so there's that. and, i kissed a guy, which was weird, it felt really wrong, but...   " Gabrielle saw Chanel from a distace before they approached the car. "You brought Chanel here? Juliette is going to have a melt down." She informed chase. This is what she had been avoiding, Chanel and Juliette in the same place at the same time. She still hadn't told Juliette about her and Chanel's conversation. Gabrielle got in the car and moved to the back silently.

“Ohhhh I get, make sure not to bust on her face 20 seconds in.” Stevie patted Wren’s shoulder and looked over at Juliette, “Oh shit babe, I never told you about that.” she held back a laugh. She really seemed to have lost her filter. Once Olivia mentioned that Jesse hooked up with someone, Stevie raised her hands, “Sorry boys, that one’s on me. I thought she deserved to know. Cause fuck him. Besides, there’s nothing wrong with you kissing someone else, Olivia. Kiss as many people as you want.” she gave the girl a thumbs up before beginning to play with Juliette’s hair. Chanel looked over at Gabrielle with a small smile on her face as the girl got into the car, “Hey.” she said softly. All while Marina and Jonah were having a lovely little chat about Star Wars. Wren was a little sad to hear she had already kissed someone else, but Jesse had already fucked someone so it ... seemed well more than fair. "Good for you babe!" said Wren to be supportive and he smiled at her. "How many people in this car are going to talk about the ONE TIME that I nut fast?" said Wren as he started the car, "Because I am not afraid to drive us to the middle of no where and leave you all" he joked. Juliette saw Chanel smile and say hey to Gabrielle quietly. Juliette looked over to Stevie with tears in her eyes. "What is going on?" she whispered quietly, "I think they're friends" she said as a tear rolled down her cheek. Chase turned to the back and started talking about Star Wars with Marina and Jonah. "Jonah you saw the falcon right? Dude it's fucking sick" said Chase talking about his Christmas present. olivia looked at wren and gave him a weak smile. she could feel that he didn't think so, and honesty, olivia wished that she hadn't done it, mostly because she didn't want to ever kiss anyone else. " yeah, i guess so,  " she mumbled and shrugged, before putting a wide smile on her lips. she had managed to perfect the fake smile. she giggled at what wren said and she reached out and ruffled his hair a little. "  oh, come on. you know we all love you. "

Wren: Wren saw Olivia come into his room, "Livvy" said Wren with a smile, "Did you come just to see me? I feel so special" said the boy coming over to give her a squeeze. "But if you came looking for Jesse ... he is sadly not in the room"

Olivia: "hey wren," she said and smiled softly as he came over and gave her a squeeze. she shook her head when he asked if she was looking for jesse. "nahhhh, i'm no looking for him. i was looking for you, actually. it's been forever, i feel like. how are you doing? i heard you have a girlfriend. that you finally grew a pair of balls and told chanel, " she said and winked at him.

Wren: "Okay, I had balls the whole time. It takes balls to not ... ya know. Ruin a friendship" said Wren, trying to make excuses for himself. "Do you ... do you know Chanel well? Do you know what she likes from a boyfriend? You know, like ... sexually?" he asked. He knew it was over the line a little, but it's Olivia. 

Olivia: "i...." she was a little surprised by the question but she smiled nonetheless. " chanel and i used to be friends, but... it's been a while. i guess i could talk to her though? you know, try and get some intel for you?" olivia didn't mind digging around for wren. "you look happy." she pointed out and smiled at him softly. "happy looks good on you." she added.

Wren: "Oh don't ask her, nonono" said Wren correcting himself. He did not want that one bit, "I can find out on my own. I was just hoping ... that ya know. Girls talked. Maybe you would already know" Wren replied. He smiled again, "Yeah things are good, I'm really happy" said the boy. Things were just going really good for him right now.

Olivia: olivia shook her head. "i'm sorry babe. we haven't been friends in a long time. but, i'm glad you're happy. you deserve it. & i'm glad you finally told her." she truly was, even if her and chanel hadn't been friends in a while, she was happy for the both of them. "so, i'm guessing you two haven't done it yet? since you're asking?"

Wren: Ah his weak point, "No we haven't. We tried once, and I um. Well we had a quick finish before we even got to that part" said Wren, "and I don't want to have sex here. I want to have it at home, with like the whole works. I want it to be romantic and special. Not a quicky while we hope no one will come in" Wren explained. It meant a lot for him to have their first time be special, because it was their first time. Something they got to have a first with together, even though they weren't each other's firsts. 

Olivia: "ohhhhh, hey, that's cool wren. don't beat yourself up about it." she smiled at him and nodded, tilting her head a little to the side as she listened to him talk about wanting to be romantic. "aww, that's so sweet of you. i'm sure chanel would really appreciate that. any girl would," she replied and walked over to the bed, sitting down on the mattress. "did you have anything special i mind? like, flowers on the bed, candles around the room... the whole shabang?"

Wren: "Yeah I was thinking about kinda doing everything" said Wren, thinking about what he had been planning. "But mostly I want to make sure she has a good time and I'm doing things the way she likes them. She's had ... a lot more partners than I have. Like, a lot more a lot more" said the boy.

Olivia: nodding her head, olivia could believe that. "well, i think she will find it special because you're someone she has feelings for. it's different the second feelings are involved." she gave him a nod and a smile. "and... she won't care about that. she'll just be glad to be with you. trust me, that's all she'll care about. and, you know, you have to get to know each other. things doesn't always go right the first couple of times."

Wren: "I just wish it wasn't that way" said Wren, "I just want everything to be perfect" he babbled on. He wanted things to go great with Chanel, he had a lot of shoes to fill. He wanted to be her best. He wished he had been around the block a few times. Well mostly, he wished he didn't have sex with Valerie just once. It all would be easier if he knew what he was doing.

Olivia: "that's real sweet. but hey, the practice is the most fun, so," she said and giggled, nodding her head. " just, don't worry about it too much. it's supposed to be fun. if you stress too much, it won't be & then it's definitely gonna suck."

Wren: "Chanel doesn't want practice, she wants to be entertained. She wants physical touch, and it needs to be great. I want it to be great" explained Wren. "I'm not too stressed, I just know what I want and what she needs and I'm worried it won't meet anyone's expectations".

Olivia: "have you actually talked to chanel about this?" she questioned him, tilting her head a little to the side. "because, you know, i have a feeling she'll tell you what i have. that all she cares about, is being with you."

Wren: "We've talked about me being inexperienced, she's not too happy about it" said Wren, "But we'll probably talk about it again. I know she cares, and I care. And it will be great" Wren added, "I just can't wait to get home and sleep in the same bed as her again. I haven't been sleeping well". He was so used to Chanel sleeping over at this point, or working out until he was so tired that he could just pass out. 

Olivia: she frowned slightly. "she's not happy about it?" she asked and shook her head. surely chanel hadn't told wren that? her smile came back though when he said he couldn't wait to get back home and sleep in the same bed as her. "yeah, i know. i feel ya. well, me in jesse's bed, not chanel's."

Wren: "I mean she was kind about it, but I could see the look in her eyes" said Wren, the girl had expectations. "Do you sleep there a lot?" he asked, wondering if she was feeling better. Jesse had gotten him pretty concerned.

Olivia: “at jesse’s?” She asked and shrugged. “a little bit. I don’t want to intrude or anything, y’know. But I’ve been staying there more.”

Wren: "I'm sure he doesn't mind at all" said Wren to be supportive. He knew Chanel liked staying with him, and no one in his house minded. It would be different when his parents were home for Hanukkah and Christmas though. "He probably really enjoys it"

Olivia: "yeah, i don't think jesse mind it. no do i really think that his parents would either, nor jonah or – i just, i don't know, feel like i'm doing it nonetheless." olivia shrugged her shoulders and she looked at wren lovingly. he probably really enjoys it the smile on olivia's lips widened and she shook her head. "enough about me. this is about you & your new girlfriend," she said and wiggled her eyebrows at him.

Wren: "Oh so we have an agenda for our talks?" said Wren with a laugh, "What about me and Chanel? We're just on the same bullshit as when we were just friends, everything is just a little more intentional. No more stealing small touches, but doing it on purpose. No more dropping hints or anything like that. We're just ... together" Wren rambled, it hardly made sense.

Olivia: "that's so cute. so, you're like... in an open relationship or? does everyone know about you being together, i mean?" she asked her friend, smiling at wren softly. "you look really happy. i'm glad, wren. you deserve to be happy."

Wren: "I haven't thought to ask ... that is a really fair point" said Wren, he thought that they were clearly just together. But he hadn't really been like, hey chanel you know what would be super awesome? monogamy. So he should probably get on that. "Thanks, I'm glad you're happy too" he replied.

Olivia: “I’m sure you are. And, you know, do other people know? Is it like a public relationship?” She questioned, only wanting to know if he is being safe and won’t get hurt.

Olivia: olivia walked into wren's house and she hadn't found her friend yet. taking a deep breath, she brushed her hair away from her face as she walked into the kitchen, and when she did, she found the male she wanted. " wren. " she walked over to him and wrapped her arms around him, hugging him tightly. " shit, dude. i'm so sorry about what happened at the dance... "

Wren: Wren was having a drink in the kitchen finally able to just relax. He was worried who had come into the room, but he saw it was Olivia and he formed a halfhearted smile. He was happy to see her in spite of everything, he hugged her back. "Me too, sorry to take the moment away from you and Jesse" said Wren still hugging her. He just felt like shit.

Olivia: " don't apologize, " she whispered as she hugged him tightly. " it was just a silly crown. shit happened and i felt so bad for you, " she whispered as she pulled her head back and looked at him. " what the hell happened, wren? why on earth did chanel do that? " she asked, still holding onto him. " are you okay? "

Wren: Wren let go of her, "I mean, I'm fine-ish. I just don't get it. We were best friends, she ate dinner here at least two times a week. We spent Saturdays together. I can't believe she used me to get at Val" said the boy, just decompressing. 

Olivia: olivia looked at him and swallowed. " do you think that's why she did it? maybe there was more to it? " she asked and shrugged her shoulders casually, before taking a step back and leaning against the fame of the counter. " i'm not trying to say what she did was okay, but...i feel like there's more to it than her wanting to piss of val, y'know? "

Wren: "I mean I don't think so, I gave her what she wanted in the hallway afterwards and she was just so speechless. She doesn't want to be with me, she just wanted to ruin a girl's night and was willing to throw out our friendship to do so" said Wren sighing. "I just hadn't listened to what people had to say about her, and here I am hurt. Same with Valerie" the boy added.

Olivia: olivia furrowed her eyebrows a little and looked at wren with a confused expression on her face. " i just don't... i don't get it. why would she do that to you? you are best friends, " she said, swallowing against the lump in her throat. " have you talked to valerie afterwards? "

Wren: “She threw her shoes at me, so I think we're like ... done done?" said Wren, feeling bad about how it had all gone down. He just didn't need any of it anymore. "I also didn't push away fast enough, I don't think we could come back from that. I mean I did push away, but I was so in shock" he added.

Olivia: " i think you need to talk to val, though. " olivia said and nodded, while continuing to lean against the frame, her eyes staying locked with wren's. " believe me, there are many things you can come back from, if you love the person a lot, " she said, shrugging her shoulder. " i'm talking from experience. " 

Wren: "I don't love her" said Wren, "never even said it, neither did she" he added. "I liked her, and then she just kept fighting and being mad at everyone I've ever spent time with" Wren replied, "She's great, and hot, and does a lot of charity work ... and I hate that my well my first was with someone I'm not in love with. I thought I would love her, but it just never clicked" Wren disclosed. He felt a weight being lifted off him.

Olivia: olivia nodded and gave wren a soft smile. " you know, there's nothing wrong with that. you're... you're allowed to not be in love with someone. to find that out later, but yeah... maybe, this, some way, was for the best? who knows, right? " olivia said and shrugged her shoulders. " you should probably talk it out though, y'know. make things ... a little bit better, maybe. "

Wren: "I don't want to talk to either of them, for a long time" said Wren taking a long sip of his beer. "I want to have fun, I want to focus on basketball, and I want to spend time with friends who don't treat me like a pawn in their sadistic mind games" the boy added putting his arm around her. "You really are THE best" said Wren booping her on the nose.

Olivia: olivia laughed when wren booped her nose and she wiggled it slightly. " well, i'm here to get drunk and have fun with you! " she said and smiled brightly, looking at wren, whom she definitely considered one of her best friends in whitelake. " come on, let's take a couple of shots and go dancing! "

Wren: "Dancing sounds good to me" said Wren smiling back at her. He got out two shot glasses and poured them tequila shots, "for you, and for me" he said passing it to her. He threw back the shot and poured them another one.

Olivia: having danced for a little while , olivia was sweaty and warm . walking outside on the front porch , she desperately needed some fresh air and it seemed to be the less busy spot . as she walked outside , she recognized wren . " wren!! " she giggled and skipped over to him , " hey , " she wrapped her arms around him excitedly ," how are you ? are you having fun? "

Wren: "Dude I am having so much fun" said Wren a little drunk, "How are you" he said returning the hug. He was nervous about seeing Olivia, but hopefully she was going to drop the other day's topic and not bring it up when they were out having fun. He'd eaten enough today to permit drinking safely, so he didn't think she could really raise any argument. He was hoping for normal Wren and Olivia time.

Olivia: smiling at wren , a giggle fell from her lips . " i'm good thank you . a little intoxicated , but good , " she said and placed a hand over her mouth . " i was wondering where you were . i haven't seen ya . are you excited about the night ? do you think anything fun is gonna happen ? "

Wren: "I hope so, I'm just waiting for Valerie to get here" said Wren impatiently, "I feel like I haven't seen her in forever, but it's only been like a day" he replied, "But I have a great feeling about tonight, like nothings going to go wrong at all".

Olivia: she giggled and nodded . " yeah , i know what you mean . i'm the same with jesse . as soon as i haven't seen him for a day , i miss him . i think that's just normal though , " she said and shrugged . but i have a great feeling about tonight , like nothing's going to go wrong at all. " yeah, " she said and nodded , giggling softly , " i hope so . we all deserve to have a fun day filled with nothing but smiles and laughs ! "

Wren: "That's what I'm saying, tonight's just gotta be the best. It's a party and all our friends are coming, it's going to be the greatest of all time, the GOAT if you will" joked Wren getting a little drunker by the minute. "What's Jesse up to?" he asked.

Olivia: olivia laughed softly and shook her head , as it was obvious that wren was a little drunk . " hold on , i'm gonna get something to drink because i need to get on your level . do you want something to drink ? or should i keep you away from it for a bit ? " she asked and wiggled her eyebrows at him . " jesse's around somewhere . i think he's with some of his friends , " she said and smiled softly as she ran over and got something to drink before heading back to wren .

Wren: "Yeah grab me something small like just a beer or something" said Wren laughing a little. She headed inside and came back out. "Did that double date happen yet?" he asked, remembering her talking about it as he cracked open the beer.

Olivia: " we're doing it soon , " olivia said and nodded as she sat down next to him , crossing her legs while watching him crack open the beer . putting her own to her lips , she took a large sip of it . " i'm excited and nervous . i just want them to get along y'know . after-all , jesse means a lot to me and so does oliver sooooo.... we'll see . "

Wren: "Like I said the other day, it'll all work out. They all care about you" said Wren taking a small sip of his beer, thinking about the empty calories he was consuming. "So have you been dancing all night? Want to continue that?" he asked.

Olivia: olivia nodded and turned her head , " yeah , and ... you know what ? i'm not gonna think about that now . it just makes me nervous . and i want to have fun! " she said determinately . when he asked if she wanted to keep dancing , olivia giggled and rubbed her hands together . " Yes! of course . you don't have to ask , " she said as she stood up , holding her hand out for him , " come on ... let's go! "

Wren: Wren took her into the house and onto the dancefloor and started dancing with her, once he finished his beer he threw it away and grabbed her hands and started to swing dance with her.

Olivia: as they made it into the living room and wren grabbed her hands and started to swing dance with her . she laughed and tilted her head backwards . then, the music changed and the song hot stuff by donna summers came on and olivia giggled as she tossed their hands up in the air , moving her hips along with the music . smiling brightly at wren , olivia felt extremely happy

Wren: Wren was having a really good time, and forgot about his insecurities once they were on the dancefloor, moving his body to the music and laughing with Olivia.

Olivia: pulling wren in , olivia hugged him tightly before yelling over the music , " i'm having so much fun! " the grin on her lips widened as she pulled back and looked at him , before continuing to bounce around the room excitedly .

Wren: Wren hugged her and then let go a little to dip her on the dance floor, giggling with his friend. She started bouncing around the room when he got a text from Val, "I love you but duty calls" he said giving her a kiss on the forehead and excitedly heading out to see his girlfriend.
