Lost in Assistance (Elizabeth Olsen x FemReader)

Ch. 41

A/N: Hi peeps! I'm back!!! Sorry for making all of you waiting for the updates but thank you for patiently waiting. Thank you for the sweet wishes and understanding for my Disneyland trip. As my way to make it up the long wait, I wrote quite a long chapter. I hope you enjoy this chapter. Okay, I don't want to hold you back from reading it now. Happy reading! :D

Lizzie sits on the couch without any words while you are just standing there as if half way down your body is frozen. Your stomach is knotted. Scarlet is trapped between you two and the silence. Awkward and tense silence. Her eyes flick between both of you connecting the dots that what's all over the internet are more than just pictures for both of you. Fear clawed through you. Your fear fills your eyes with tears without you realizing. You lock your gaze to her, waiting for her to look at you but you can see that she can't even look at you. You swallowed hard. It hurts you when you know those emerald green orbs that never get enough looking at you, now can't even stay more than a second on your gaze.

A lot of thoughts come into her mind at once. Panicked, confused, scared, and sad. She has never been in this situation. She never feels the way she feels with you to another woman before, let alone got caught by paparazzi having a romance with a woman. She doesn't know how her family and friends will react. She doesn't know if she should care about what others think about it or not. Her mind is spinning thinking what answer she should say to everybody. Anxiety swirled around her.

The silence was finally broken by Scar's clearing throat sound. "Uh I- I think I'm gonna give you both time to talk. I'll see you at the make-up room and the set Liz." The blonde cast-mate nods at Lizzie and grabs her phone from her as she mouthed thank you to Scar.

Lizzie's phone vibration sounds heard more often. Her phone is blowing up with calls, notifications and texts. Mitchel tries to call you back. "I-I had to answer this, I think he is freaking out. I don't know if he freaks out in a good way or not but please don't go anywhere yet, love." Your eyes beg her, she knows they do even though she is not looking at them. She nods without a word and without looking at you.

"Hey Mitch." You answered the call. "Hey babe. Did you see them? All the pictures. Are you and Lizzie okay?" The red head man asked you in concern. "Uh yeah, we are okay." You answered him again, with your eyes still looking at her. Hoping that she won't leave you. "Are you two really dating?" He asks in a serious tone, no teasing at all. "Uh-it's uh. I gotta go. I have to talk with her. I'll call you later, okay. Sorry Mitch."

"Oh yeah of course! I'm sorry, I didn't know. Go get your girl, babe. Bye" Both of you hung up.

"I'm sorry, love uh I meant Liz. Are you okay?" You come to her and sit next to her on the couch. Her head is facing down. You gently pinch her chin with your fingers and turn her face so she can look at you. She finally looks at you but only for two seconds then looks another way as she answers. "Y-yes I'm okay." Once again, you feel another sharp pain slicing your heart seeing her can't look at you. You try to hold yourself not to ask her your other question you have for her but the silence gets worse, it's so deafening. The worse the silence gets, the harder you hold yourself from asking her the question.

You finally give up, you can't hold it any longer so you ask her. "The paparazzi's' pictures and the news. Do they bother you?" You gently grab her hand, hold it. You rub her hand gently with your thumb, you slowly gain comfort from it but not for so long. Lizzie slowly pulls her hand from yours as she answers. "I-I don't know, y/n." You almost whimper from her actions. You instantly miss the presence of her hand. She looks at her hands, fidgeting as if she already misses your touch and wishes that she did not pull her hand from yours but her mixed feelings right now force her to do so.
