Dear Best Friend// Olivia Rodrigo x Emily

XXIX

They had no school for two more days. They could do whatever they wanted. But they decided to stay home.

-Babe?, said Olivia as she put her plate in the dishwasher.

-Yes my love?, replied Emily looking at her.

-Can we just go upstairs and cuddle? Or on the couch. I don't care. I just want to be close to you., confessed the older girl.

-Of course we can. Let me start the dishwasher and then I'll join you upstairs, okay? You can grab my laptop and look for a movie if you want. I'll be there in a second., smiled the younger brunette.

-Okay., replied Olivia smiling and walking up the stairs.

Emily cleaned the table, put everything in the dishwasher and started it. She quickly checked her phone and then walked up the stairs. Emily opened her bedroom's door, revealing a tired brunette who was typing on Emily's laptop on her bed.

-Have you found any movie yet?, asked the younger girl walking up to her bed.

-I was thinking that we could watch the new Cruella movie? It looks pretty good., shrugged Olivia looking up at her girlfriend.

-Okay., smiled the other brunette sitting down next to her, pulling her into her arms, Olivia's head resting on Emily's chest.

-You can choose another movie if you want to. I don't mind., replied the older girl.

-No, no. Cruella sounds good. Come on, let's just watch it., said Emily looking down at her girlfriend.

-Okay., nodded Olivia starting the movie.

During the movie, Olivia stayed in Emily's arms, the younger girl playing with Olivia's hair. At some point, the older brunette fell asleep, which Emily noticed. The younger girl simply closed her laptop and didn't move, being happy that Olivia was getting some rest. She hated the thought of her going through hell and not telling Emily. She understood why she didn't want to tell her, but she could have trusted Emily. After a while, Olivia started moving a little. She suddenly sat up, breathing heavily, looking around. Emily immediately sat up as well, looking at her girlfriend hyperventilating. She placed her hand on Olivia's back which made her flinch.

-Hey, it's just me. It's just me., said the younger brunette softly as Olivia nodded and tried catching her breath.

-Look at me., said Emily, the other brunette immediately obeying and looking at her.

-Breathe with me, okay? Smell the flowers. Good, now blow out the candles., tried the younger girl with the softest voice ever, Olivia following Emily's breathing, but the older brunette looked away, her breath hitching and closing her eyes, not being able to calm down.

Emily put her hand under Olivia's chin, making her look up at her.

-Try it. Just breathe with me. Just follow my lead. Look at me and don't think of anything else. Just me and you., continued Emily as Olivia looked her in the eyes.

-Breathe in. Good. Now breathe out. Good, that's good. Again, breathe in. Breathe out., smiled the brunette as she saw the other girl breathing with her.

-This is ridiculous and e-embarrassing., scoffed Olivia still not being able to breathe correctly.

-No, it's not. Just keep going, you're doing great. Come on., encouraged the younger girl.

Olivia nodded and kept going.

-Talk to me. Tell me something about you. Like, what is your favorite song?, suggested the younger girl.

-I d-don't know. I have a f-few. I like every Taylor Swift song, b-but also many Harry Styles one. I g-guess my favorite would have to be Nightmare by Halsey though. I don't k-know., shrugged Olivia.

-I love that song. Halsey has an amazing voice., replied Emily.

-Yes, she does., nodded the older brunette.

-Okay. Now, tell me what's on your mind?, said the other girl as Olivia continued the breathing exercise, looking at the girl facing her.

-You're beautiful., said Olivia out of nowhere, making Emily blush.

-I don't- I don't know what to say., chuckled the girl nervously.

-Nothing, I just wanted you to know., smiled the older brunette..

-Olivia?, asked Emily softly.

-Hm?, hummed the older girl.

-You did it., smiled the other brunette.

-What?, frowned Olivia confused.

-You're breathing normal again. You did it., elaborated Emily smiling.

-Oh. Oh yeah, I did., frowned Olivia actually surprised.

Emily just kept smiling and looking at her with a soft expression.

-I'm sorry about that. I don't...You probably think that I'm weird., said Olivia looking down.

-What? No, no. First of all, don't apologize for anything that you can't control. And I don't think that it's weird, actually, I think it'd be odd that you didn't have nightmares and panic attacks after everything that has happened to you., replied Emily.

-You sure?, wondered the older girl.

-Look at me., said the other brunette.

Olivia obeyed and looked her in the eyes.

-Hi., smiled Olivia.

-Hey., replied the older brunette as she kept looking away and back at her.

-Don't be ashamed. Please. I'm always going to be here to comfort you. You're safe now, Liv. Your mom is gone, Justin is gone, Tyler is gone, your old neighbor is gone. It's just us. Just you and me. No one is ever gonna hurt you as long as I'm alive., said the younger girl.

-I love you., whispered Olivia.

-I love you too., chuckled Emily.

The older brunette looked at her girlfriend and pulled her in a kiss, her hand wandering to Emily's cheek. Emily obviously kissed back, deepening the kiss. That's when Olivia pushed Emily back to make her lay down, without breaking the kiss though. The younger girl blushed but didn't mind. She moved her hands to Olivia's sides and kept the kiss going. She was not going to pull away, but then Olivia moved her hand under Emily's shirt. The younger girl pulled away and looked at Olivia.

-What are you doing?, frowned the brunette.

-Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make you feel uncomfortable., apologized Olivia taking her hand back.

-What? No, no. I just...I wanna know how far you're willing to go., wondered the younger brunette.

-I don't...I don't know, Em. I don't think that I'm ready for that yet. But making out sounds fun and I get to be close to you and show you affection., smiled Olivia.

-Okay, my love. Whatever you want. Don't feel pressured., replied Emily pulling her into a new kiss.

Suddenly Olivia's phone started buzzing.
