Come Home To Me (Elizabeth Olsen X Reader)

Chapter 44

Lizzie's pov

It was Christmas day today. I woke up early, excited for today to spend it with my favourite people. I left Y/N to sleep for a while longer as I cooked breakfast and started baking some Christmas cupcakes to take to my parents. We already had all of their gifts in bags by the hall ready for us to take with us. As I was plating up our breakfast I heard Y/N coming downstairs.

"Good morning baby" I said as I kept my attention on the food.

"Good morning love." He said as he made his way over and wrapped his arms around my waist and gave me a kiss on the cheek.

"What time is it that we're going to you parents house?" He asked as he helped me carry over pur breakfast and coffee to the table.

"At around 1pm" I told him as we both sat down. We both ate in a comfortable silence. Once we had both finished he got up and took our dishes to the kitchen to wash up. I was still in my thoughts when I realised he isn't going to be here for my birthday as well as our anniversary. This sucks ass. I didn't realise how long I was sat there for until he came back into me.

"Hey what's up love?" He asked as he knelt down beside me.

"Oh its just nothing, I'm just really sad that our time together is running out." I told him with a sigh.

"Hey it will go by fast, and when I get back we will celebrate your birthday and our anniversary even though they might be a bit late." He said as he rested his hands on my knees.

"I just dont know how I'm going to cope without you for that long." I told him honestly.

"Dont worry love, you will be fine. You have all of your friends and family here to help you through it." He reassured me which helped a little bit. I just couldn't shake this horrible feeling that something was going to go wrong. He stood up and held his hand out for me to take. He lead me to our room I sat on our bed while he went into the bathroom. I heard the water start running and the smell of lavender wafting into the room. He came back in and helped me out of my clothes and pulled me into the bathroom. I got in the bath and sat forward as I watched him get undressed and climb in behind me. I leant back with my back resting on his front. He grabbed a sponge and started to rub the warm water over my shoulders making me sigh in relaxation. I was starting to feel at peace with this soft and gentle side of him. We stayed in the bath for another 20mins before we both got out to get ready for the day.

Y/N put all of the bags in the car while I was finishing packing the cupcakes and a bottle of wine. He came back in and took the cupcakes and wine of me so I could lock up before we headed out to my parents. When we arrived I had took the cupcakes and the wine while he grabbed the bags. We made our way up to the door and was about to knock when my mum opened it.

"Hey baby, it's so good to see you both" she said as she pulled us both into a hug.

"Merry Christmas mum." I said as she pulled away from us.

"It's good to see you again Mrs Olsen." Y/N said with a smile.

"Please call me jarnette." She told him with a soft smile.

We both followed her into the living room were everyone was already. The twins and my brother already talking and laughing with my dad. As soon as they all saw us they came up and greeted us both. We both took a seat while listening to them all engage in their previous conversation.

"Hey I'm gonna see if mum needs help in the kitchen." I told Y/N as I stood up which he just nodded. As soon as I stepped foot in the kitchen, my mum was preparing the vegetables.

"Hey baby, are you OK?" She asked as she turned to face me.

"Yeah I'm fine, I came to see if you needed any help." I said quietly.
