Just a Random Girl (Hailee Steinfeld x y/n)

Chapter Five - The Date

Hailee's POV
I woke up and y/n was gone she left a note saying she had to go to class and she's text me later. I was already sad and missed her so I sent her a quick text.
Hailee - hey cutie, you and i tonight my place it's a date ;)
y/n - Hailz i'm in calculus right now but yes i'll be there. What should i wear?
Hailee - something comfortable :)
y/n - okay... i miss you
Hailee - i miss you more princess
y/n - i'm not a princess i'm bad ass
Hailee - whatever helps you sleep at night
y/n - i sleep perfectly fine
y/n - gotta go my love see you tonight

"My love" god damn my heart flutters and I feel my cheeks heat up. What is this college soccer girl doing to me. I roll out of bed and I decide to get dressed. I have an interview today about Dickinson. I throw on some jeans and a button up shirt and I see something lying my sofa. It's y/n's hoodie, UCLA soccer. She left a note... "In case you miss me." I decide to wear it since it's chilly outside. I get in my car and drive off to the interview.

y/n's POV
"Whatcha smiling at?" Gia asks.
"Nothing..." I say and Gia snatches my phone.
"Ah I see it's Hailee, well as long as your happy so am I." Gia says smiling. "But you're coming to practice tonight." She says with a stern face.
"I would never miss a practice." I say and she laughs because I always skip practices, the coach could care less as long as I perform well during a game. Our next game is actually tomorrow against University of Southern California.
"Real funny y/n." Gia says crossing her arms.
"I am hilarious." I say smirking.
"God I don't know what Hailee sees in you." She says laughing.
"Wait you think she likes me?" I say.
"y/n are you fucking blind she asked you out on a date." Gia says.
"I thought it was like a friend date." I say.
"You're dumb sometimes." Gia says.
"Heyyyy be nice to me." I say.
"Hold on I don't know how to do this shit." Gia says talking about infinite series.
"I can teach you later class is over." I say.
"Not everyone is a genius y/n." Gia says.
"Come on you love when I teach you stuff." I say.
"Ugh let's go to lunch." Gia says.
We walk to the dining hall and I eat a salad and Gia decides to get chicken and rice.
"So whatcha wearing to your date?" Gia asks.
"She said comfortable right?" I ask and Gia nods.
"Uh my favorite pair of black jeans, my air forces, a white button up...and my favorite hat." I say.
"What about a flannel instead so you look extra gay." Gia says pointing her fork at me.
"That's not a bad idea, the y/c/e one?" I ask.
"Yup it will go well with the black jeans and a white shirt. It'll also match y/c eyes." She says.
"What would I do without you." I say.
"I don't know, probably look unfashionable." Gia says and we crack up laughing. "Keep your hair down girls love your y/c/h dude and if Hailee gets cold give her your flannel. I know it's your favorite but be a gentlewoman. Also y/n open up to her." Gia says with a sincere smile and all I muster is a small nod.

Hailee's POV
I'm driving to the interview and I turn up the radio and sing along to Party in the USA. Taylor Swift comes on and by the time I finish singing the ten minute version of All Too Well I arrive at the interview. I walk inside and see my manager Nancy.
"Hailee you were almost late!" She yells.
"I made it though." I say as she hands me a cup of coffee.
"Looking extra comfy... didn't know you were a Bruin." She says.
"I just like the design." I say.
"Mhm soccer..." She says.
"Fine I will tell you about it later, leave me be." I say.
"Ha I knew it!" She says clapping her hands together.
I walk into the interview with my coffee in hand and look down at my phone and see a text from y/n... good luck at the interview popstar❤️. I'm smile and sit down.
"Rolling in 3... 2... 1"
"Good morning everyone!! I'm here today joined with the wonderful Hailee Steinfeld."
"Hey everyone." I say smiling.
"Okay Hailee I have a few questions for you today."
"I'm an open book." I say.
"Okay first what was you favorite thing about Dickinson?"
"The cast and crew were amazing people!! I love each and every one of them." I say honestly.
"You and Ella are really close."
"Yes she's one of my best friends." I say with a tight lipped smile.
"Moving on to your new project... Hawkeye, tell me what are you most excited for?"
"Probably playing a superhero and getting to be a badass next to Jeremy Renner." I say laughing.
"Enough with acting though you are a phenomenal actor... what about music? Plans on a new album?"
"I'm thinking about it... some new inspiration recently wandered into my life so who knows." I say shrugging.
"Hmmm how vague!! Anyone special in your life?"
"I recently got out of a relationship and it left me a bit damaged but I met this wonderful person who got me through it. They mean more to me than they probably should since it's been such a short amount of time but I have no regrets." I say smiling.
"Any chance we might get a name."
I shake my head no.
"Maybe someday but it's not today. I can tell you about them... they are such a kind soul despite everything they have been through. They care with all their heart and I'm truly honored to have met them because I don't deserve them. I would move mountains for them. They have an adorable smile and a cute laugh. They are EXTREMELY talented both academically and athletically and I can't wait to see where the future takes them."
"Someone sounds like they're in love."
I blush.
"Not yet but I'm currently falling." I say.
"Well you heard it here guys Ms. Steinfeld is off the market!! Some mysterious..."
"Lady." I say quickly.
"Has captured her attention!! Speaking of lady? You've never clarified you sexual orientation?"
"I never felt the need to. I believe that love is love and when I love someone everything is right. I guess if I needed to label it I am bisexual but I'd love anyone because to me gender isn't a factor in love." I say.
"Well Hailee we all love and support you. Thank you for coming to talk today."
"Thank you." I say smiling.
I walk out of the interview with a smile on my face. I meant every word I said about Becca.
"Hailee!" Nancy yells. "Want to talk in the car about your new lover?"
"She's not my lover yet." I say.
"Tell me about her!!" Nancy says excitedly.
"She's damaged but she's perfect. She's got an adorable laugh and smile. She's athletic, UCLA soccer player and she's super smart, she's a neuroscience major. She's beautiful and kind and caring. I want to give her the world because she deserves it."
I show Nancy a picture of y/n playing soccer.
