movies were watched and light conversation was made, but they never got too deep. it seemed as though Lizzie and You were too scared to get vulnerable with each other again, so it was mostly silent
you looked up when you felt something bump your arm as it made its way past you, you thought it was the drink cart but you couldn't have been more wrong
you gulped when you saw what it really was, making their way down the aisle was a couple around Lizzie and your age holding onto each other and giggling
"what's all that noise?" lizzie asked as she took out her earphone, following your line of sight which eventually led her to see the couple sneak into the bathroom together
you began to chuckle awkwardly, before looking back at Lizzie who was already looking at you with an eyebrow cocked
"mile high club, it happens more often than you think" Lizzie informed you "never thought about doing it have you?" she asked
it wasn't a sexual pry, it was an honest question
"i have" you replied quickly
Lizzie smiled and raised her eyebrows, before blinking a few times and going back on her phone. she was intrigued but didn't ask questions
after a few minutes the couple emerged and the seatbelt sign came on, indicating it was time to land. Lizzie again began to run her fingers up and down your arm, trying to help you calm down
but by that point you were as calm as could be, she was like your rock. she kept you calm when you thought you wouldn't be able to, you were grateful
the landing was smooth, and before you knew it you were sitting in the car with Lizzie driving towards the city. you looked outside the windows once the both of you were officially in the city, you didn't leave LA much so it was a big day
the hotel that was booked was apparently fancy and it was very obvious when you pulled up in front of it
"oh my god.." you breathed out as you looked it
"don't worry, i'm not paying for it" lizzie smiled as the door of the car was opened by a man in a suit
"welcome to The Plaza, ma'am's" he welcomed both of you, you replied with a meek "thank you"
both Lizzies and your luggage were moved into a hotel cart and they followed you with it as you checked in and got into the elevator
it climbed to the 3rd highest floor in the building and got to your door...
just. one. door.
"are we staying in the same room?" Lizzie asked, whipping her head around to the man standing to the side of us
you looked at him intensely too, waiting for an answer
"oh no, no you're not. it's separated, two bedrooms and one common area, Ms Olsen" he told us before gesturing to the door, Lizzie opened it with the hotel room card
after you both had all your luggage, he left and you two were left alone in the big common area. it was awkward, Lizzie had expected it to be when she invited you but it was still weird
"i'm going to go have a shower and freshen up" you quickly chirped, grabbed your luggage and moving towards your door
"ah yes, me too. good idea" Lizzie agreed
the ensuite to your bedroom was very nice, modern but welcoming. you quickly stripped out of your airport clothes and go under the hot stream of water, you let it run down your face and body. the room quickly filled with steam and you were completely out of it before you heard a quick but quiet knock
"hello?" you called out, peaking your head out of the glass shower door
"hey y/n, i don't have any towels in my bathroom. do you have a spare in here?" you heard a meek Olsen say through the door
you looked around quickly, wiping your face as you did
"yeah one second !" you called out once again, leaving the water running as you quickly stepped out and wrapped one of the two towels available around your body
you grabbed the second towel and opened the bathroom door, Lizzie was expecting you to crack it a little bit but frazzled and tired you had other plans
"oh-" lizzie stepped back a little, eyes wide as she looked you up and down quickly
"sorry, didn't want you to wait until i was dressed, big day" you just smiled simply while you internally scolded yourself, handing her the towel as you did
that's when you saw exactly what she was wearing, a fluffy hotel robe. her leg sticking out, somehow making the robe look chic and her cleavage in full view but still leaving room for imagination. you gulped and tried to make eye contact
"thank you" lizzie peeked through the door and saw the hot shower still running, steam coming out of the door, "you should probably get back to your shower, want to get dinner after?"
"yeah sure, see you after you're done" you quickly replied, both of you shooting each other a quick grin before you closed the door
you walked back towards the shower and turned the water ice cold, before stepping in. the steam subsided and your body temperature returned back to normal probably even colder than usual, the cold water stripped your brain of all of the thoughts that were there when you opened the bathroom door and before you knew it you left the shower pure... somewhat
after both do your showers, Lizzie told you that the restaurant was a surprise and to just look nice. you took inspiration from her simple outfit and got dressed in wide cut pants and a tight turtle neck before you did your makeup and hair
now you had to get through an entire dinner with Elizabeth Olsen, when you knew your feelings were growing. The friendship was already in its awkward stage but it was getting better, you didn't want to make it worse by making your intense attraction known again. Besides you thought that Lizzie was already dating, she was texting someone pretty often so you figured it was someone she was seeing.
she had made it clear when you dropped her back at her house many months ago that things had to go back to normal, and that meant seeking romance elsewhere or at least that's what you thought she meant
"are you ready to go?" Lizzie asked with a grin as she saw you exit your room
god this was going to be hard
"yep, all ready"
A/N HEY GUYS I GOT COVID LOL
enjoy this !! what do you want Y/N and Liz to get up to in New York? hope nothing gets in the wayyy
