you sat there paralysed between Lizzie and Aria on the ride to the house, even though you had spend hours next to Lizzie during the flight you still weren't extremely comfortable with her bare shoulder next to yours.

"you feeling okay, Y/n?" Jill asked, turning around from the passengers seat

"y-yeah i'm good, just tired" you smiled at her, and then looked out the window next to Aria

you weren't lying to her completely, you were tired but it was still light out so you sucked it up and stayed awake for the entire car ride. besides, you could not risk falling asleep on your cousins wifes shoulder again. 

the car ride was short but felt like forever, it was filled with laughter and very embarrassing stories of you in your youth. You knew Lizzie would hold them above your head for probably the whole remainder of your friendship and you were not looking forward to it

"wow, this house is gorgeous" lizzie commented as you all made your way into the house

"why thank you, i'll show you all to your rooms" Jill smiled as she gestured to upstairs, "of course Aria will stay in her childhood room for the trip"

"score!" Aria called out as she pushed through us to put all her bags into her room, "living the dream" she sighed as she laid on her bed

Jill rolled her eyes and continued up the hall before stopping outside a room with only one Queen sized bed inside

"i'm sorry, girls but you'll both have to share this room. we're doing renovations on the rest of the guest rooms in the house" Jill said with a shrug, "although Y/n and Aria could share a room instead if you're more comfortable that way"

"i have zero problems sharing with Y/n" Lizzie said quickly before going into the room and putting your bags on the bed, "are you okay with that?" Lizzie asked you with a smile which was impossible to say no to

"yeah! i'm okay with that, yeah totally" you replied a bit too excitedly

"great, then it's settled! Dinner will be ready shortly, just get comfortable" Jill smiled once more before making her way downstairs for the night

you walked into the room slowly, looking around and acting like you hadn't actually seen this room before as you could feel the awkwardness between the two of you.

"i guess we'll be sleeping together again after all" you snickered

"what?" Lizzie asked with a shocked face, you looked at her confused as she chose to share a room and a bed

"like on the plane" you said, cocking your head to the side

"oh yeah, of course that's what you meant" she sighed

after that weird conversation you decided to unpack all your clothes into the draws by the bed, it took up most of your time until dinner was ready which was perfect because you were absolutely starving

you sat at the dining table, and Lizzie sat opposite to you although she looked disappointed

dinner was served and small, innocent conversations were made throughout, you had almost forgotten that Lizzie was even at the table because she was so quiet but that was before you felt a heeled boot brush against your ankle.

Lizzie was wearing heeled boots, you froze up. maybe it was an accident? but when you looked up Lizzie was smiling at you, she didn't even bring it up or hint that she had realised she had done it so you continued eating

but it happened again, this time higher. you choked on your wine and coughed a few times. Aria patted you on the back and asked if you were okay, you glanced at Lizzie who also acted concerned so you just nodded. This went on for the remainder of the dinner and dessert, getting higher and more noticeable each time

After everyone had finished you excused yourself to the bathroom, Arias dad had commented on how you looked flushed and offered to turn on the air conditioner, you quickly said thank you before heading upstairs

you walked into the bathroom attached to Lizzie and Yours shared room, splashing water on your face. you were still trying to convince yourself that it was an accident, it had to be right? it took a few minutes for your face to go back to its original colour but you knew if you went downstairs and saw her that it would get red again

you decided to Text Aria and tell her you didn't feel well so you could just go to bed and avoid Lizzie till morning, maybe you could sleep through her coming into the room and falling asleep next to you

you woke up to a dip in the bed next to you, you knew it was Lizzie so you kept your eyes tightly shut

"y/n wake up" she whispered in a sing-song voice, "i know you're awake"

no reply

"will this wake you up?" you could practically hear this smirk on her face as she asked

but before you could turn your back to her and actually try to go back to sleep you felt her warm lips on yours, it took you a couple seconds before you realised what was actually happening

your eyes shot open and you sat up, turning on a lamp as you did, your mouth opened and shut as you tried to say something but nothing came out

"close your mouth, you'll let flies in" lizzie giggled before going in for another kiss

all this build up caused you to do something stupid, you leant in too and kissed back.. hard. there were no thoughts in your mind except how good it felt to kiss her, you both pulled each other's bodies closer wanted to be as close as possible. you then realised when you were peppering kisses down her jaw as she moaned that she was married, to your cousin.

pulling back was the hardest thing you had to do but you managed, Lizzie looked confused and hurt.

"you're married, Lizzie" you said as if she didn't know herself

"to Robbie, it's not like he cared about me but you do. show me how much you care" she replied, trying to lean in again but you turned your head the other way

"if someone finds out about this, whatever the hell it is you'll be ruined. i can't let that happen" you said, standing your ground

"i don't care" she protested, grabbing your hand

"i'm not going to be your play thing, so i think we should really get some rest" you sighed

"but y/n-"

"goodnight Lizzie" you said as you turned the other way while turning the lamp off

except you didn't sleep, you laid there awake thinking about the kiss, thinking about Robbie, thinking about how you hate him, thinking about how you care for Lizzie but it wasn't right.

you wouldn't let her ruin everything she had built on a stupid writer from LA
