Chapter One

Chapter One : Olivia Adelaide


Grady Pilot is a complete idiot who I would destroy. He was always there when I was hurt, he didn't know who I was but he always comforted me. The day Logan destroyed me Grady was there, the night I found Logan sleeping with my best friend Grady was there, he was just always there.


Its been rough the last two weeks without Logan, he became my anchor and without him I was left floating out to sea.


"Maybe I'm just in love with the idea of being with you, maybe I'm not in love with you." Logan whispered, looking at me with those sad eyes. I shake my head, he warned me that this would happen. Logan and I weren't meant to stay together.


We just didn't work, even though we tried so hard, I knew he wasn't the one for me.


"Sorry Livvy, but I didn't do jack shit. It was all her," Grady hissed out, a smirk wiping his face as he stared at the principal with a wicked grin. I felt my fingers clench in my lap as I bite my tongue, refraining from saying something I might regret.


I stare at the principal with a deadpanned look, "I'm sorry Sir, but if anyone is to blame its Pilot here." I snap, scowling at Grady who sat there with a smirk.


So during lunch I was just leaving the cafe when Grady decided to run into me, dumping his tomato soup all over my white shirt. So naturally I picked up the slice of pizza I had on my plate and slapped him in the face with it.


Somehow a food fight broke out and now Grady and I were stuck in the principals office, blaming one another. I sigh and bring a hand through my long blonde hair, "I'm calling your parents." He snaps when we kept arguing. Our heads snap up and I laugh loudly while Grady snorts loudly.


"My parents are dead," Grady snaps and I felt chills rundown my spine, Grady stares at me the whole time with an unreadable expression. I look away and keep my head down, closing my eyes.


Looking up I chew on my bottom lip, "My fathers rotting in jail and my mother is admitted into a psych word. I'm pretty sure they wont give two shits," I bite out and a look of surprise erupts on his face like he didn't know my family background.


Grady's eyes burn the side of my head but I don't bother looking over at him, standing up I throw my bag over my shoulder and leave the office without another word. I walk through the doors and out into the hall when my eyes lock with the pair of blue eyes I fell in love with.


He stares at me with a saddened expression, his lips tilted down, I felt my stomach twist when he just stands there staring. I miss him. Logan looked away before glancing back at me, not once saying a word.


"I love how I feel when I get to see you, but that's not enough for me. I'm sorry."


His words ring in my head on this constant loop, its been two weeks yet I was still having trouble breathing. He walks away without uttering a single work and Ill admit that it hurts still. He cant even stand being around me, let alone talk to me. I guess that's how it goes when the person you fell for breaks your heart into tiny pieces.


"Livvy!" I hear him shout and grumble to myself, turning around I send Grady a small smile before turning around and walking away. But a hand wraps around my wrist gently and tugs me back.


His brown locks fell into his bright green eyes that were outlined by thick lashes, Grady Pilot was no doubt beautiful. He was usually quiet so I'm not sure why he's taken an interest in me. He was known for causing trouble, always doing small things to get himself suspended, whenever he's in the mood to do something serious he usually lands his ass in jail.


Grady never really followed the rules, he made his own and lived by them. No body could tell him what to do, he lived with his two cousins, Judah and Micah along with his four brothers. Apparently he was the one most effected when his parents died, him and his dad were supposedly close.


"Go away Pilot," I snap, crossing my arms across my chest before dropping them, pushing the front doors open. There was a huge circle of students in the middle of the parking lot, worry fills my head and I feel my stomach drop as my feet slap against the ground as I begin running.


I hear Grady behind me but I ignore him as I see a head full of black hair, his blue eyes meet mine and I watch in horror as another kid punches him in the face, "Julio!" I screech and Grady tightens his hold around my wrist.


He knew Julio was my brother, he was my half brother but he still counted. Our birthdays were a month apart and we were really close since Kiano, our older brother was always gone. I shove through the students who stood there chanting and grabbed one of the boys that were punching him, the somewhat bulk kid looks at me with a smirk.


I send him one of my own and knee him in between the legs, he drops to the ground hissing in pain when I punch him in the face. Behind me I hear Grady hit a few of the guys and help Julio off the ground. Turning around I wipe the blood from my mouth where the guy hit back and look at him, he looks at me with angry eyes and shakes his head.


The crowd of students disappears when I see Judah Pilot sauntering out with a lopsided grin, his hands were lazily in his jean pockets as his brown hair swayed across his forehead, just missing his brown eyes. He looks at me and raises and eyebrow, "And who might you be?" He questions and I watch as Grady cracks his neck and knuckles, looking at Judah with a glare.


I wrap an arm around Julio's waist and hold him close to me, the students here liked to use him as their personal punching bag which I absolutely hated because he's been put through so much shit he doesn't deserve this.


"Judah this is my friend Livvy, Livvy this is my cousin Judah," Grady bites out, wearing a small scowl.


I roll my eyes and send him a small smile before walking towards the school, I had to call Kiano and see if he would get me and Julio. I look at Grady to see he was already looking at me, and the expression he was wearing made my insides twists and my heart pound.


"I'll see you around, Pilot." I say with a playful grin, I watch as his lips tilt up into a faint smile as he looks at me with those shinning green eyes.


He doesn't say anything, just nods shyly at me before walking away with Judah, I slip my phone back in my pocket when Kiano says he's on his way. Kiano understands that I'm a very complex person, I've always been a little out there and needed plenty of help.


He's been there for me through the whole Logan bit, apparently he never liked him and knew that we wouldn't last. I'm not sure what it was, Logan made me happy but not the happiest if that makes any sense. I couldn't see myself growing old with him or having a family, he was just there because I was lonely and I was only there because he was alone.


Kiano picked us up and drove us home, leaving a half hour later for work, Julio lied upstairs in his room, complaining about not feeling well. Rolling my eyes at nothing I sit on the couch with music blaring as I stared up at the ceiling, I felt completely off.


"My, you look stunning," He had whispered while looking at me with those light blue eyes. I blush and look away, my blonde curls hiding my face. A hand lifts my chin up and I smile, "You don't look to bad yourself," I whisper, looking down at my hands that were folded in my lap. Logan chuckled and shook his head.


"I thought you would like a change, so I hope you like it," Logan whispered, grabbing my hand and holding it gently in his. He brought our intertwined fingers to his lips and kissed the top of my hand.


Logan had always been sweet to me, always kind. He always tried his hardest to make me smile, I remember telling him in the very beginning, I was one of the hardest people to get along with. I pushed people away and in the end I pushed Logan away.


"I don't love you! And I don't think I ever will!" He shouts, dragging a hand down his face with a long sigh. My eyes burned with tears as I felt my chest rip in my chest painfully and slowly, Logan wasn't himself, maybe he just had an off day.


"I hate how you get moody over nothing, I hate how you barely talk about you're parents. I cant love you no matter how hard I try, I love nothing about you." Every word was like a bullet to the heart.


If he couldn't love me, who would?


I was Olivia Adelaide, the weird girl with the sketchy past that no one wanted to befriend. But I never really knew I had everything I needed in front of me until it was almost ripped away from me.
