Purple Rain - Prince
"I never meant to cause you any sorrow. I never meant to cause you any pain"

Y/N'S POV
I woke up absolutely dreading the day I was about to have. Today was the last full day Lizzie was going to be in Tampa before going back home to LA so she could go and be amazing on her show as an actress and a producer. Her flight left tomorrow and it was the last thing I wanted to think about.
I felt around for my love next to me in the bed and was met with empty, cold sheets. Frowning, I sat up and scanned the room to see if she was up and moving around.
Nothing.
I let out a sigh and went to the bathroom to do my business and morning routine before throwing on some sweats and a hoodie for the day.
Putting my hair in a lower bun and tucking the stray hairs into my Nike hat, I was ready to go.
I walked out of my bedroom and was immediately met with the sweet smell of breakfast food and the adorable sight of Lizzie dancing around in the kitchen with 'Ain't it Fun' by Paramore playing in the background. She was using her spatula as a microphone and was too lost in her mini concert to notice that I was watching her with all the love in the world.
Also, thank God I'm dating someone who loves to cook. My eating habits are shit when I'm left to fend for myself.
"Hey, baby." I say, finally making my way fully into the kitchen area and situating myself on a barstool.
Realizing she had been caught, Lizzie turned around to greet me as a slight blush filled her cheeks. "Good morning."
"Watcha' making?"
"Pancakes with syrup and, of course, some over medium eggs with hot sauce on the side."
I smiled wide and let out a longing sigh. "What did I do to deserve you, Olsen?"
Smirking, she shrugged her shoulders and plated the breakfast. "I don't know but it must have been something pretty damn good."

I went to work that day, praying the hours would fly by so I could go back home to Lizzie. I contemplated taking the day off to spend more time with her since she left tomorrow, but she insisted that I go and 'change lives' as she so lovingly puts it. Also, she had a lot to prepare for. She had scripts to memorize, schedules to confirm, and phone calls to make so I conceded, letting her win.
I was a little bummed out that she wouldn't let me stay with her, and the thought made me furrow my eyebrows.I almost begged her to let me take the day off. I mean, she has done all of those things with me before, so why wouldn't she do them with me now? Even if I were to just sit in the background and read my books. I just wanted to be with her.
Letting the thought fester in my mind, even though I knew I shouldn't have, I sent her a text.
Me: Is everything okay?
It took a couple of minutes for her to respond but my phone vibrated on my desk next to me.
Liz: Yeah, of course. Why wouldn't they be?
Me: I don't know. Why wouldn't you let me stay with you today?
Liz: Babe, I have a lot to work on. Please just trust me on this. I am not upset, nor am I rethinking anything about us. I know that's where your mind is going.
Knowing she was 1000% right, I sighed and sent her a response.
Me: You're right. I trust you. See you soon, Liz.
