"Ugh, Paige is gonna be there?" Liv groaned as she sorted through some stuff to take with them on their trip.

Nick chuckled. "Sorry, she's Carly's friend, we have to deal with her."

"Seriously? She's so...awful! I still don't understand how Carly befriended her."

"'Awful?' Really, Liv? That's the best insult you can come up with?"

"Hey, I tried! Cut me some slack."

Nick just shook his head, flopping backwards on his adopted-sister's bed. "You just don't like any of our friends, do you?"

"Not really, no. I mean, Dalton always does something idiotic, and you have to cover for him and get in trouble and even get sent to freaking jail. Wade isn't too bad, so I'm okay with him, but I don't like Paige, and Blake has always been a jerk to me and ignored me for the most part. Sorry if I'm biased."

"Nah, I understand."

"I don't even know why I'm going. I hate sports," Liv muttered as she pulled out a cute skirt and top to wear the next day. She thought she might dress up for this trip, since Paige always bugged her about stuff like that. She was always saying 'Stop dressing like a hobo, Olivia.' Well, screw her too.

However, Olivia's vision grew hazy as she stepped away from her closet, and she stumbled, grabbing onto her dresser for stability. Nick watched with worry, almost standing up to help as a scene of Carly and her tumbling down a muddy hill and landing in a pile of rotting animal flesh flashed in front of her eyes. She could smell the decay, and it was disgusting. She almost puked, but she managed to choke it back as she blinked the pictures away. She met Nick's eyes, and his eyebrows were raised with worry.

"Yep, definitely not wearing this tomorrow."

"Why?"

"Reasons."

Nick sighed, rolling his eyes. Liv had always been closer to him than to Carly, who she honestly had grown to not like much, so Nick was the only one who knew about her...abilities. She would randomly have visions of future events, and sometimes she'd even hear or smell it too. It was the reason she hadn't died in the fire that killed her family: she had seen the flames, smelled the smoke, and heard the fire alarm, and as a result, run down the street to Carly and Nick's, just before the fire actually started. It had actually been her first premonition, unfortunately.

"Liv..."

"You might wanna bring some extra shirts. I'm sure Carly won't pack very many, you have white t-shirts out the wazoo, and she's gonna need one."

Nick snickered. "Yeah, sure."

Liv got her old, ex-boyfriend's hoodie out of the closet. She only wore it when she expected to get dirty, along with a pair of jeans she usually painted in, and Nick picked up on the fact that the girls were gonna get gross. He didn't question it any further, since he knew Liv could be sensitive about the topic of her visions.

"Hey, are you guys in there?" Carly's voice said from outside the bedroom as she knocked lightly on Liv's door.

"Yeah, we're here," Liv answered, watching as Carly pushed the door open.

Carly gave her brother a hard look, and Liv sighed sadly. Nick hadn't told anyone but her the truth of what happened with Dalton and the car, so Carly had been acting like this for a while now. "Hey, we're gonna meet up later, alright?" She addressed that to Liv, looking away from Nick.

"Yeah, we'll meet you there. We've gotta pick up Dalton on our way," Nick answered.

Carly sighed. "Don't be late. See you later." She left without another word, and Nick's face fell, making Liv frown and reach over to pat his arm.

"I'm sorry," she murmured.

"S'okay. Finished getting your stuff. I'm gonna grab some extra shirts, and then we'll head to Dalton's." Liv nodded in agreement, squeezing his arm reassuringly as he got up to leave.

Hello, and welcome to Living Through Flames! A little while back, my best friend got me to watch this movie, and I dunno. I just fell in love with it instantly. I had started this earlier, since I couldn't decide whether I wanted to continue this part into the beginning of the movie or not. So, this is just staying at a prologue, unless you would like me to add in the little bio about Liv that I wrote out for myself. I'm gonna try to keep it as close to the movie as I can, too. I hope you enjoy it!
