Life is Never Completely Without it's Challenges

Chapter 10

(Hey Besties)

 

Lizzie's POV

    Weeks seem to fly by, production has resumed and everything has been running smoothly. Y/n has been interacting with the cast showing her exactly how she is imaging things to be. Reynolds and I have yet to find out how to click as Co-Stars. "Cut!" Y/n yells so everyone knows to stop. We all turn to see her duck under one of the Film crew's arms and walk towards me and Renolds. "Everyone take 5." She orders. She points to the two of us. "Come in." She commands us over to her. "What's the issue? You act like siblings, I need lovers." Y/n says. "I uh...I don't think there is an issue." Ryan says. "I kiss my grandmother with more passion. And Lizzie contribute anything time." Y/n encourages me. I honestly don't know what to say.

They continue to talk but all their words seem to fade under the sound of my heartbeat. I couldn't see her from behind the camera, but now that I can, she looks stunning.

   It's pretty cold out today, maybe she could have put on another layer but she's looking so good in those black jeans. I can smell her spearmint gum causing her lips to brush against each other with each chew she takes. The call of my name draws me out of my trance. "Earth to Lizzie." She says. "Um, sorry." I realize Reynolds has left. "Is my mouth that distracting?" She teases me, with a chuckle. My eyes go wide with embarrassment.

Lucky for me she's already moving on to the thing. "Alright Love, I think that's it for today. You are free to go." She tells me. As she walks past she pays me on the back. Without thinking I open my mouth. "Wait!" I call after her. She turns around. "Yeah?" Y/n asks. "How does dinner sound?" I ask. 

"Like you need a watch. It's lunch time." She says. "No." I shake my head at her comment. "With me. How does dinner sound with me?" I ask again. She shifts her weight to one side as she fridges with the pen in her hand. "Like a...Date?" she asks. oh no. She probably thinks I'm being unprofessional. How to I back out? What should I say?  "Wh-what? No...Like a hang out. There's this bar down the street that has amazing burgers, and I just wonder if you wanted to join...Aubrey will be there." I say. Wow I am a good liar, adding Aubrey made the lie seem so real.

"Oh...what a shame." She says, using my words against me, then turns away. what did she mean by that? Was she joking? Did she want a date? Fuckkkk!

Later that evening, once again I find myself needing to look perfect. But hell it was cold outside.

I walk along the side walk towards the bar when I see Y/n waiting outside freezing her ass off.  I approach her with a smile. "You seem to always be early." I say. She tries to smile through the pain but she ends up looking silly. We walk in and I did invite Aubrey, She is just coming later so I can have some alone time with Y/n. "Not a fan of the snow?" I ask. "No I love it, just when I have a few more layers. I didn't get a chance to stop by my house." She says as we take are seat on the bar stools.

We were both still shaking from the cold. "Here." She says taking my hands in hers. she blows warm air on our hands. She looks so focused. "These burgers better be worth it." She says in between blows. I've honestly never been here I just saw the burger poster on the front of the building one day while passing. "You're going to love it." I continues the lie. She looks up from her hands meeting my gaze as she continues to blow. "Have you ever been her before?" I ask. She let's go of my hands tucking her own hands under her armpits for warmth. "Um, No...I hope that's a little better." She says.

We ordered the burgers and they’re actually really good, Thank God. "Yeah, I do know of your sisters. I used to watch reruns of Full House. Didn't they stop acting?" She asks. "Um, to focus on their faction brand." I answer. "Yeah? Well, the film world will miss them but we still have the best Olsen, right?" She compliments me. "You bet your ass." I agree with her playfully. We share a light laugh.
