'People Always Greave'

Chapter 1 – Stab My Back

Sitting opposite Olivia at her desk usually was a good thing but right now Peter wanted to be somewhere else, anywhere else than opposite her. He had broken his one rule, never fall in love with anyone, but here he was, aching heart and all he wanted to do was hold her but he couldn't.

Sighing Olivia brought her hands up to her face and glanced behind him through the window and out to the lab where Astrid, Broyles, Walter and Rachel sat. Talking about the last case and how Rachel was involved and how important it was for her to keep things close to home.

"I guess we have to make this look real huh?" Peter broke the silence and Olivia looked up at him through hooded eyes.

"Yea I guess we do. How should we start?" Olivia dropped her eyes from his, not wanting to see the hurt in them.

"How about some yelling?" Peter offered not really knowing what else to say.

Olivia nodded slowly and then snapped her eyes up, pushing herself from the desk and stalking over to him. "WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THING YOUR DOING!" Olivia voice echoed through the small room and sudden silence in the lab meant that they could be heard, just what they wanted.

"Damnit, I told you Olivia. I don't want to be with you anymore. How is that so hard to understand. I don't even know what I saw in you in the first place!" Peter shot back, standing in full height in front of her.

"Peter you can't be serious. Please, I need you." Olivia's voice dropped slightly but still loud enough to be heard.

Through the window, Astrid, Walter, Rachel and Broyles all looked up and saw Olivia and Peter standing an inch apart, fuming at each other. They watched as Olivia tried to touch Peter's face just to have him take a step back from her.

"I thought you loved me. Did you care about me at all?" Olivia couldn't stop the small tear that found its way down her cheek and Peter had to hold himself back or else he would wipe it away and all of this would go to hell.

"No I didn't. I lied sweetheart." The use of his pet name for her killed it. Opening up the flood gates for more tears. Olivia took the opportunity to use force. Brining both her hands up to his chest she thrust him backwards so his back hit the wall.

"So that's it. I was nothing to you not even a friend?" Taking a step towards the door Olivia reached for the handle.

"Nothing at all sweetheart." Peter growled in return.

With a small nod, Olivia ripped open the door and made her way into the lab. In front of everyone, she pivoted on her heels and face Peter, who was now in the doorway of her office.

"You stay the hell away from me you lying son of a bitch!" and in a second she was gone but not quick enough to hear Peter call behind her, "Don't flatter yourself Olivia. You have nothing I want!"

Grabbing his coat from the chair, Peter ignored the sad looks he was getting from his friends and he just hoped that they would forgive him in the end.

Driving in a separate direction from Olivia was hard but bringing his car to a stop on the side of the road was harder. Bringing his hands to his face he began to cry, wishing none of this could have happened but he knew it was for the best. He needed a reaction out of Olivia and that what he got. He just wished it didn't hurt so much.

Pulling up to her apartment, Olivia killed the ignition and waited a moment before heading up the stairs. His words hurt her more than she ever thought they would but she knew it was worth it. Her friends and family would feel sorry for her and hate him but right now she just cried as his words stung her like a million bees.

Locking herself in her bedroom, Olivia laid down on the bed and hugged the last piece of Peter she had, his MIT shirt, and cried herself to sleep.

OK, I don't know how this going to work but let me know what you all think.

All the chapter titles will be song names and if anyone watched/watches One Tree Hill you might get the story title meaning
