Yesterday morning, was when tom found out Bret had touched me while I was drunk, and I haven't seen Bret around since.
Maybe he just got kicked out?
My phone dings.
Who is this unknown?? If tom and Harrison didn't go through my phone I'd text back. But instead I ignore the text once more.
"Liv I finally beat haz!" Jackson says excitedly walking out to the poolside where I was sitting.
"Really?" I ask him.
"Hey! You didn't beat me you just got a good set of hits in" haz defends himself.
"Well I'm still advancing really fast" Jackson says.
"Don't you guys ever do anything other than work and train?" I ask. "Look at the beautiful pool you losers never use!"
"If tom wasn't such a hard ass we would!" Haz says and I smirk at the sight I see behind him.
"So, I'm a hard ass?" Tom asks from behind haz making him jump.
"You could have warned me!" Haz yells.
"Nah I thought I'd have a little fun" I say mimicking What haz says every time he goes to the basement.
Tom looks at haz with a smile and pushes him into the pool.
"What the fuck!" Haz yells as he comes back up for air.
"Who's the Hard ass now?" Tom says causing Jackson to laugh.
"Jack?! I'm your mentor take my side!" Haz says.
"Yeah But He's the boss" Jackson says and tom pats his back.
"Good choice of words kid" tom says.
As I sit in the lounge chair with the two boys standing in front of me, I see an opportunity I can't pass up.
I lift my foot, pushing it into toms side, causing him to barely stumble before he smiles at me.

"You think I didn't see that look on your face and figured out what you were doing?" He asks with a laugh.
"You suck" I say.
"Paybacks a bitch" he says pulling me up swiftly by my arm and picking me up throwing me into the pool.
I come up to the surface and push my hair out of my face.
"You dick" I say. "I was tanning!"
"Darling your pale and you burn" he shakes his head.
"Ah look at you two, so sad in the pool" Jackson laughs crouching down and toms foot swiftly knocks him into the pool too.
"Haha not such a kiss ass now huh!" Haz says. I climb out of the pool leaving the boys and glare at tom.
"You ass" I stick my tongue out at him.
"I try" he shrugs and turns to go inside. I wrap a towel around me and turn to the boys who are still in the pool.
"We're going to get him back for that" I tell them and go inside and up to my room to change.
I put on another one of toms sweatshirts that he absolutely never wears. They're so comfy. And I slip on some spandex shorts.
I go down to the kitchen and make a smoothie.
"Hey, Olivia right?" A guy says walking into the kitchen and opening the fridge.
I turn to look at the brunette boy.
"Yeah" I say.
"I'm kai" he says.
"I haven't seen you around?" I ask, almost sounding like a bitch.
"Yeah I'm out of town a lot" he says.
I nod and he looks at me once more.
"You know you look a lot like-"
"Amelia miller?" I finish his sentence and he laughs.
"You get that a lot?" He asks.

"Unfortunately she's my sister" I say and his mouth gapes.
"Wait so you're working against your own mob?" He asks.
"Nope, I didn't even know she ran a mob" I say.
"Oh shit" he mumbles.
"Yeah, anyways" I say popping a straw into my smoothie. "Nice meeting you"
"You too, it's nice having someone around here who's not a dick"
I smile at his comment and make my way upstairs.
I walk by toms office and open the door to see 2 other guys sitting around the table.
"Sorry" I mouth to him and he smiles and waves me in.
That's very different compared to how he normally gets mad when I walk in on his meetings.
"No no it's okay come in" he says.
"Wow tom not killing someone for walking in his office without knocking? That's new" the curly haired guy says, and turns around to meet my eyes.
I shut the door behind me and go sit in the chair next to toms.
"This is Olivia" tom says to the two boys who appeared to be twins. "She's staying here"
"This is Harry and Sam, they're my little brothers" tom says.
"Hi" I smile.
*toms pov*
"I honestly just came in here to annoy you but you seem a bit busy" Olivia says.
"Never too busy for you darling" I say.
"I'm gunna go hang out with my new friend" she says and I raise an eyebrow at her.
"Who's That?" I ask.
"Kai" she says and I roll my eyes.
"He's My smuggler, stay away from him, and he's on drugs" I say.
"And you're a murderer holding my dad in your basement" she laughs.
"For the greater good darling!" I say and she laughs.
"Yeah yeah alright curly boy" she says flipping my curls between her fingers and walking out.
Sam and Harry turn to me, smiles spread across their faces.
"Never too busy for you darling" Harry mimics me and I roll my eyes.
"You have the biggest crush on her" Sam says.
"She's simply under my protection. That's all" I state.
"Yeah so you kill Bret for her" he says.
"Well Bret needed to learn some respect for women" I say.
"No one in this building has respect for women!" Sam says.
"Shut up I do too" I say.
"Only for Olivia" Harry says. "Cause you've got a crusshh"
"Believe me if I had a crush I'd fucking act on it I'm not a pussy"
