Elizabeth's POV

"You came!" Nat screeches as she runs over to me.

"Wouldn't miss it for the world, I figured since I was around so I decided to come by and watch." I say and she smiles.

"We have two days off before the next show, take her out for me?" Taylor whispers and I look up at her with a nod.

"You got it." I whisper and she gives me a smile. I turn to Nat and smile. "Come on we can go to my apartment. I'll make you some food."

"See Tay she actually spoils me."

"That's because she doesn't have to put up with you snoring in the middle of the night." Taylor says and I laugh.

"I didn't know that." I say.

"That's because I don't snore."

"I'll bring her back tonight." I tell Taylor.

"Just a couple hours? Damn." Natalie says.

"Unless you want to spend the night? I mean that's also up to your boss there." I say pointing towards Taylor.

"Go, spend time with her. We can manage one night without your hard work. Lizzie take care of her."

"You know I will." I say with a smile. "Come on Nat we're going to do lots of things."

Taylor's POV

"What's up?" Selena asks.

"I told Lizzie to take Nat out. Do you think they have you know." I ask as I look around me making sure there's no one.

"Well that's good, she's a good friend to her. And have what? Had sex? Taylor we're adults."

"She is isn't she? Yeah that." I whisper.

"Taylor, sex."

"Have they?" I ask.

"I don't know, how would I know? I don't know."

"Are you sure?"

"Taylor she's twenty soon to be twenty one." Selena says and I sigh.

"I know, but she's my little sister. I'm always going to take care of her. She's too pure for this world. Alex took advantage of that."

"I'm telling you Taylor, something doesn't add up. It's all so sudden, so random, so weird. It's weird I'm telling you."

"I'm making a song about it." I say joking around and Selena groans.

"You're unbelievable."

Natalie's POV

"What's going on in that head of yours?"

"Nothing." I mumble.

"Come on, what's wrong?" She asks.

Lizzie pats the bed and I look up, she smiles at me so I walk over to the bed and lay down. She pulls me into her, my head laid on her chest. Her fingers running through my hair. I softly purr at the warm feeling and comfort I feel in Lizzie's embrace.

"I met a girl." I mumble.

"What's that?" She asks and I huff.

"I met a girl." I say.

Her movement stops as she pushes me up to see me.

"Really? And who may that be?"

"Doesn't matter she played me." I mumble as I bury my face into the crook of her neck.

"Is it that one girl on the picture you were seen with? The athlete?" She asks and I nod. "She's pretty."

"Very."

"What happened baby." She asks softly as she stokes her thumb on my cheek.

"She's with a boy."

"A boy?"

"A man, a boy same thing." I mumble.

Her hand moves down to my back as she rubs it in circles.

"You'll find the one someday. I'm sure of it." She whispers, kissing my head.

"I wanted her."

"I know babe, I know. If it's meant to be you'll find your way back to each other."

"All she had to do was stay."

"Get some rest, by the knots on your back you need it. Clearly this tour has put you on some major stress." She says and I shake my head.

"No just the athlete who stole my heart and when she left she also took it with her."

"Rest."

"Stay?"

"I'm not going anywhere." She whispers then kisses my head.

Taylor's POV

"Where's Nat? Taylor where's Nat?" Gigi asks concern in her voice as she looks through the bus.

"With Elizabeth." I say.

"Elizabeth who?"

"Olsen."

"Oh, so she's in safe hands." She says and I nod. "Great, that's what she needs."

"Question, do you know if they have you know together?" I ask as I munch on some snacks.

"Have what? Had sex?"

"Sure yeah that."

"Why don't you ask her yourself? Also why do you want to know?"

"I asked her but she didn't answer. I want to know because I just feel like they have."

"So you think they did it, but you just can't prove it? Is that what it is?" She asks and I shrug.

"She's my little sister."

"Well I can assure you Olsen is like another mother figure to Nat."

"Right, yeah you're right. So definitely not."

Natalie's POV

"My sister asked me if you and I have had sex." I mumble as I snuggle into her.

"Did you-"

"Hell no. We're talking about Taylor my sister, she freaks out about the smallest things when it's about me, she scares me."

"So you also didn't tell her that I'm the one th-"

"Elizabeth, no! She'd probably pass out in front of me and instead of helping her I'd run away and hide or run away to find you."

"So she doesn't know?" She asks.

"Nope."

"Does anyone know?" Lizzie asks again.

"Nope. Not a single soul."

We look at each other and smile.

"No one will ever know." We both say in unison.
