Only Time Will Tell

fun with her

y/n pov

I was grinning like crazy after my call with Lizzie. We both agreed on a time to meet at her house and I was about to get ready for the day ahead. It was only 11 am, so I had plenty of time to get dressed.

Not really knowing what Lizzie had in plan, I decided to wear something kinda cozy. I decided on a brown turtleneck sweater and some jeans with my combat boots. I put my hair into a half up half down and grabbed my keys. "Bye Kev!" I yelled out to Kevin upstairs before leaving.

I put Lizzie's address into the GPS and turned up the radio. Her house was a bit more of a drive, it was about 30 minutes away from Kevin's house, but I didn't mind since I was way too excited to see her.

I finally pulled up by her garage and walked to the door and rang the doorbell. "Coming!" I heard her say from inside. "Y/N!" She says while opening the door. "Come inside!" Her house was extremely nice. It was well decorated, with a very homey feel to it. "Liz your house is beautiful." Thank you. She grins. She then goes to pack some stuff in a lunch box bag and makes her way back to me.

"Alright, let's go!" She says. She leads me inside of her garage to her car and puts everything in the trunk. "So are you gonna tell me where we're going?" I ask, sitting in the passenger seat. "Nope." Okay then, I accept the defeat.

She plugs in an aux cord and turns on her playlist. "I love this song!" I realize she was playing my favorite song, Everywhere by Fleetwood Mac, and couldn't help but start singing. "Me too!" We both sung as she started driving.

The drive was fairly long before we pulled into what seemed to be a fair. Lizzie parked the car and got everything out of the trunk. I took in my surroundings and she grabbed my hand to guide me to the ticket center.

We both got our tickets and happily went to the main area of the carnival. "Wow Liz, this is so cool!" "Right!" she says while clapping her hands, it was adorable how excited she was. "Let's go on this!" I point towards the ride where it goes left to right. I could feel her tense up, "I-uh-" I snickered, "Liz, are you afraid of a small ride?" I uh-don't like adrenaline rushes.." Liz! You don't like rides and you took me to a fair? I tease her.

"I'll be with you the whole time, alright?" "Ok.." She slowly says, I take her hand and we both head towards the ride. After giving the man our tickets, I help her in the seat and fix her harness. I could feel her hold my hand tighter as the ride starts, a small chuckle leaving my mouth.

At first, Liz was screaming, but I could see her slowly smile as the ride went on. After 3 rounds, it ended and I helped her off. "That was so fun!" She exclaims, causing me to smile. "I told you so!" She then focuses her attention to a game where you win prizes. "Do you wanna try it? I ask her. Her mouth curls into a small smile, "Sure."

We walked towards the desk and the worker told us everything about the game. You just needed to get 3 arrows straight in the middle of the target. Lucky for me, I took archery when I was younger. "Okey dokey.." I say, while aiming for the target.  "You got this y/n." Liz cheers me on, giving me more than enough confidence.

I then shoot the bow and it ends up straight in the middle. "AWESOME!" I hear a very excited Lizzie say. I shoot the second and the third and both of them directly in the middle. "And that's a big bear for you ma'am!" the worker says, while handing me a large brown bear almost bigger than me.

I hand Lizzie the bear. "Here you go, mlady." "Thank you!" She says, taking the huge bear. "No problem." We both go on a few more rides until it's around 6 pm. "Y/n, one last ride?" Of course, what do you have in mind? She answers, pointing to the ferris wheel. "Okay then."

We step up on the stairs to enter the Ferris Wheel before I see a frantic Liz looking around. "Liz?" I ask her. She doesn't answer. I see her getting more and more anxious. "Liz!" She finally turns her attention to me, I put both my hands on her shoulder, "What's wrong?" Before she could say anything, I notice the dozen paparazzi swarming us. I can so clearly see her eyes starting to glisten. "Ok, Liz, I'm gonna get you out of here okay?" I try to take her hand to guide her through the paps, but she quickly refuses it.

I choose to ignore it and focus on getting her out of here. More and more paparazzi starts to come up, making me frustrated myself.

elizabeth are you and robbie still dating!?

elizabeth, who's this mystery girl?

elizabeth, are you cheating on robbie?!

hey wait, isn't that y/n feige, Kevin feige's sister?!

And that was my cue to hurry and go. Me and Liz started to run through the crowd and to her car. When we finally made it, I put my hands on the window to catch my breath. I could still see Liz with her head down, and in her palms. I walk over to her and put my hand on her shoulder, "Liz, do you wanna talk about it?"

"I- I have anxiety a-and paparazzi, they just make it so much worse." she explains to me, and I pull her into a hug, not knowing exactly what to say. All I could hear was silent cries, while I rubbed her back. "Shh, shh, it's okay sweetheart."
