Easy on me (Y/N)

Chapter 21

Lizzie's POV:
It's finally the day the music video is released. The plan is to have a small Q&A after the release of the video with about 100 fans and it also being streamed online. We'll talk about the video itself and confirm at the end us being together setting up my personal interview. I wasn't nervous but excited. I decided Y/N would be the one to ask me the questions in my on a live stream when we got back home so fans could ask more questions. It was going to be a busy day. We pull up outside the venue to probably a thousand fans cheering. It was meant to be a secret event but we both know Marvel fans are crazy. The venue specific location only got released a few hours ago. Y/N looked at me before we get out of the car.
"Are you sure you want to do this?" She checks.
"I'm 110% certain." Y/N gets out the car and runs around to open the door for me. I take her arm as I have hundreds of times before on red carpets but this time it would be the last time people thought of us as just friends. We walked straight inside to be greeted by our family and friends. We got a babysitter to look after Tommy. She was highly recommended by Scarlett so we knew she could be relied upon.
"I'm so proud of both of you and I cannot wait to see this video," Mom greets us squeezing us tightly.
"Thank you," I smile.
"Please welcome to the stage Y/N Y/L/N and Elizabeth Olsen," Scarlett announces. She agreed to host as she's probably the person we trust most who was willing to do this. Y/N squeezes my hand and kisses me gently.
"I've got you," Y/N assures me.

Y/N's POV:
We take our seats on stage as the cheers continue.
"Is there anything you wish to say before we show everyone the video?" Scarlett checks.
"This song was written about my time in hospital and holding on to hope. It's slightly different to my other music but I hope you enjoy another part of the story," I introduce it.

The video starts with pictures of Lizzie and I together up to when I got sick with no music but the sound of a heart rate monitor slowly speeding up in time with the beeps of the monitor. As it flatlines the image shown is the one I kept by my bed of Lizzie. The music starts and the video cuts to me in a hospital bed withdrawn instead of listening to the doctors just staring at that photo as I sing.

Everybody needs inspiration
Everybody needs a song
A beautiful melody
When the night's so long

The video then shows me losing my hair and still looking at the picture.

Cause there is no guarantee
That this life is easy

The flashbacks of Lizzie and I from when we started shooting together begin. We recorded these in our old trailers. Us chasing each other around the set and tickling her. Me holding her when she'd get upset. The first time we kissed and the way I looked at her when we pulled apart.

Yeah, when my world is falling apart
When there's no light to break up the dark
That's when I, I
I look at you.

The next set of Flashbacks show when Lizzie and I were arguing about Robbie not that people will ever know that. Up until she breaks up with him and sings to me.

When the waves
Are flooding the shore and I can't
Find my way home anymore
That's when I, I
I look at you

We get to flashbacks of the holiday we took together with pictures and parts we had recorded together now. Flashbacks of us dancing together like no one is watching appear too.

When I look at you, I see forgiveness
I see the truth
You love me for who I am
Like the stars hold the moon
Right there where they belong
And I know I'm not alone

The Flashback shows the letter I wrote to Lizzie when I left. Then me making my way to London by myself still clutching onto that picture.

Yeah, when my world is falling apart
When there's no light to break up the dark
That's when I, I
I look at you

We then move onto when I was in the hospital again they give me the all clear but someone calls and informs me Lizzie has moved on. We hired a queer actor to play Lizzie's boyfriend as were all the people involved in the video. The video shows Lizzie and fake Robbie moving into a house while I'm alone until I look at the picture.

When the waves
Are flooding the shore and I can't
Find my way home anymore
That's when I, I
I look at you

The video now shows me reuniting with Lizzie with her being mad at me. Then me in hospital fake giving birth to Tommy when she comes in and holds me. Then a video of the three of us with a fake Tommy where I just look at her.

You appear just like a dream to me
Just like Kaleidoscope colors that
Cover me, all I need
Every breath that I breathe
Don't you know you're beautiful?

Yeah, yeah, yeah

The video now shows fake Robbie cheating on her me confronting him about it. And me getting punched before running after an upset Lizzie.

When the waves
Are flooding the shore and I can't
Find my way home anymore
That's when I, I
I look at you
I look at you

The video shows Lizzie in the kitchen who grabbed an ice pack apply it to my head just smiling at me. We step closer

You appear just like a dream
To me

The sound of a regular heart beat sounds which speeds up slightly when Lizzie removes the ice pack from my place inching closer. I pull her closer to me and my heart beat goes slightly faster. Until we both sink into the kiss and the sound of my heart beat regulates again. The screen fades to mostly black except for the picture of the three of us at Tommy's first birthday.

Lizzie's POV:
The crowd erupts in cheers as do our family and friends backstage. I look to Y/N who tears up a little as do I. I move over on the sofa and hold her tightly.
"That was so beautiful," I whisper.
"I love you," she mumbles into my shoulder before we pull apart.
"How incredible was that? Are you ready to ask some questions?" Scarlett hyped up the crowd who cheer again. The first girl who came up to the microphone seems nervous.
"Hi my name is Anna. My question is does the woman who the songs about know you wrote this for her? And if she did how does she feel about it?" She queries.
"Yes she does. I played her it a few months back. She loves the song as much as I do. It's become our song I guess as cheesy as that sounds," Y/N giggles looking at me slightly.
"My question is for Lizzie. What made you choose to be in the video? It's a little different from your other big screen work," The next woman asks. Scarlett starts laughing and choking a little causing us to both glare at her making her stop and panic.
"It was actually my idea. I heard the song and I had all these ideas. Y/N offered me a producer and acting role and I couldn't say no. She's also my favourite person in the world so why would I want to stop myself spending more time with her," I explain mostly truthfully.
"The truth is she wants to spend time with Tommy," Y/N laughs causing a few laughs from the crowd.

The next few questions were quite boring about like what made us decide to use those flashbacks in the video we had to be ultra planned for so as to not reveal it. We got to the final girl who was eyeing both of us up. She was going to ask the question we wanted to save for the end.
"My question is did you write the song about Lizzie? And if so is the ending of the video real?" She smirks confidently. Thank you random citizen.
"Yes I did," Y/N admits smiling at me.
"And yes the ending is real. The whole thing was accurate. That's our story," I add smiling back at Y/N. And the crowd just lose it.
"Ok calm down. Y/N and Lizzie will be discussing this further on a live stream this evening around 7 please check Y/N's social media page for further information. Thank you all for coming," Scarlett calms them. Y/N offers me her hand up from the sofa. I kiss her cheek in gratitude listening to the crowds reaction as we walk backstage.

As soon as we got backstage we got tackled in a big family hug.
"I can't stop crying," Tom admits and Zendaya gives him a hug.
"Neither can I," my mom adds. I turn to Y/N who just beams smiling at me.
"You created something so beautiful Lizzie. I'm so proud of you," she compliments me.
"We did. Now come here and kiss me," I plead. She brings me in for a kiss which is full of every emotion that video reminded us of.
"Listen as much as we enjoy the PDA you need to get your asses ready for the next stream," Scarlett advises us making us all laugh.
"Let's go home," Y/N smiles kissing my cheek.
