My Beautiful, Beautiful Elizabeth.

Goodbye & Hello

Lizzie came to the dorm and I was pretty quiet while I helped her pack her things. Loading then onto a truck outside, Hollywood moves fast. We took a food break, I ordered Joes pizza, one of Lizzie and I's favorite spot. As we eat in silence Lizzie speaks up,

"Are you alright?, you are quiet today"
"Yeah, I am alright just thinking about how I am going to have to do double shifts until I find a new roommate", I say. Which was true but not the whole truth. Lizzie gets up to get wallet. Pulling money out of it.
"Here take it, everything will be set up for me over there and I have family I can stay with, this should cover you until graduation", she says.
"I don't want to take your money, chase. I'll figure it out on my own"
"Please if you work more you won't have time to write music, consider this a investment in your future. I want you to make it with me", she pleads.
"I hate you, you know", I say
"You don't mean that Marshall you are my best friend"
"I know I don't mean it", I grab her pulling her into a hug, and I can't help but to start crying.
"I am just going to miss you, don't forget about me alright", I say holding on to her.
I take a moment to relax, I know she had to leave soon. She was stalling.

"Okay let's get you out of here superstar", I stand up saying. I grab the last box and walk with her down stairs to the truck.
She looks at me as I place it down and turn back to her I open my arms for her to hug me.
"Wish me luck", she says.
"You don't need it", I say back.
"Do you think we will see each other again?", She asked before letting me go.
"You could always fly out or I could fly to you, you can always call or text and if that doesn't work out then at least I'll see you on my TV screen", I say light heartedly.
I look at her eyes and they were dark I knew the face of determination to succeed and prove everyone who doubted her wrong. I had that motive as well but haven't gotten the opportunity yet. This also meant I would be only a college story to her.
"Goodbye Elizabeth", I place a kiss on her cheek and walk away before she did because it would hurt more. Elizabeth Olsen will always be the one that got away. Huh sounds like a good title for a song too I thought to myself.

We parted way since then Elizabeth never called or texted. Id be lying if  I said I wasn't sad about it, I missed her all the time and spent a lot of days crying. Given the opportunity I would do that same. I graduated, I assumed she did too. I couldn't really keep tabs on her because I wasn't on social media. The money she gave me lasted until graduation and then I moved back with my parents, saving up and eventually getting my own apartment.

Her movie did okay but it definitely opened more doors for her. I stayed in New York running the coffee shop and booked a job on broadway as a musical writer and continued to write songs. I got into watching superhero movies, marvel to be specific. I saw iron man 2 and saw Scarlet Johansson and fell in love. Which continued my need to watch those movies. I watched every movie Lizzie did I never forget her.

When age of ultron premiered I screamed, because she was in it. I was working on a song I never finished when suddenly I got a call from an unknown number.

Y/N- hello ?

Unknown- hey this is scooter

Y/n- okay scooter how's you get my number?

Unknown- *laughs* you don't know how I am do you ? Living under a rock i like that. But anyways I am a music producer/manager Melissa give me your number she said you were good with lyrics and singer.

Y/n- yeah I do keep myself under a rock, I don't even have social media. But yeah I do what can I help you with ?

Scooter- i'd like to sign you, do you think we can meet up id like to see you perform.

Y/n- it's actually opening night my coffee shop, come by and I'll play you some songs.

Scooter- sounds great send me the address! Bye for now. See you soon y/n.

I was in shock and I decided to call Melissa, she was a good friend. The only other person I've gotten close to every since Lizzie left.

[Melissa's call]
Melissa- hey loser

Y/n- hey thanks for the heads up by the way

Melissa- i don't know what you are talking about
Y/n- you gave me number to scooter ?

Melissa- he has a lot of artist like Justin Bieber ! I just put in a good word, he is looking for something fresh.

Y/n- well thanks we are meeting later at the shop, you should come through.

Melissa- I wouldn't miss it for the world. See you later.

I went back to my writing and I thought about what songs to sing at the coffee shop. Once I decided, I sent scooter the address and got ready to head out.
