Chapter 10:
« When do you have to go back to LA? » I asked scared that she has to go back to LA soon.
« I have to go back in September when I finish filming for Hawkeye but until then I'm here » she said making me secretly happy.
« Oh that's cool. I have a project during October in LA » I said.
« Really?! For what? » She asked excitedly « well I can't tell you but it's for marvel » I smiled
« That's so cool! We could go on another fake date there » she smiled.
I chuckled « sure. Fake dates are cool » I sighed a little but still with a smile.
« Or maybe real dates » she suggested « Real date are way better » we smiled at each other and both nodded with a little blush.
We ate and talked until 11pm « oh it's already 11, I wanted to take you somewhere else. Come on » she said taking my hand.
She paid the bill because she won't let me pay of course.
I see waiter slide her a paper on the counter but before she can take it I push it toward him. « I'm sorry but she's taken » I said taking her hand and getting out of the restaurant.
« So I'm taken now? I didn't know! »She teased me « yes you are remember we're fake dating » I responded with a sarcastic tone.
We get in the car and she start driving again. During the journey I look out of the window watching the view.
Suddenly, I feel her hand on my tight I'm a little shocked and I take a few seconds to react.
She's about to take her hand back but before she does, I catch her hand in mine and interlock our fingers.
I raise my head and when I look at her I feel butterflies in my stomach.
We drove another 20 minutes and we arrived on a mountain with an amazing view of the town.
We get out of the car and sit on the hood of the car. After five minutes, I'm starting to get a little cold, she notices it, go in the car and come back with a jacket.
She puts it on my shoulder and we look at each other for what feels like hours. By now the view doesn't matter, she's all I can think about.
Without realizing it we both lean in, we stop before our lips can touch. I can feel her hot breath making me shiver.
Before we can move further, her phone ring making the both of us groan.
She kiss my cheek and answer her phone.
« Flo?...what? Why?...Okay see y'a... »
She ends the call and look at me disappointed « I'm sorry but we have to go back at your place »
« why? » I asked confused « I don't know Florence called saying that we need to go back at your apartment » « everything okay? » I asked worried.
« She told me that everyone was okay but we have to come back » I nodded and we head in the car starting driving back to my place.
During the journey I feel a little anxious, it's not like Flo to call and say that we have to go back immediately for nothing.
I decide to take Hailee's hand in mine so I can play with it to keep me occupied. When Im anxious it help me to not freak out.
« You're fine? » she asked. « I'm nervous. I need to keep my mind occupied » I breathed out.
« Angel it's okay, Florence said everyone is fine »
« It still stress me. I'm sorry I'm really anxious »
« It's okay don't apologize. I noticed you have anxiety. The way you shake your leg every time, or the way you bite your bottom lip. And when you play with your fingers and there's more » she listed.
« Wow, I didn't think you would ever notice this details. But you're right. I have strong anxiety. And I often have panic attacks » I sighed.
« How do you manage to handle a panic attack? » she asked.
« When I'm alone I'm obligated to call someone. Lizzie, Scarlett, Flo, Brie and even Rose. I just need to have someone here to calm me down. Someone I feel safe with you know? »
« I managed to calm you down. Does that mean that you can add me to your list? » she smiled and I raised an eyebrow.
I look out of the window and see that we're soon at my house.
« Wow. Yes you definitely are in my list now »
« Then I'm happy » she smiled happily.

A few minutes later we open the door of my apartment, everyone is still here. They probably did a little party.
« What happened? » I immediately asked. Lizzie get up and give me her phone. I take it confused, when I look at it my heart drop.
There's pictures of me and Hailee holding hand at the restaurant with an article that I don't even want to read.
The title say « y/n Larson and her new GIRLFRIEND? » I give the phone at Hailee and run to my room. When I enter I see Rose sitting on my bed rubbing her eyes.
« I'm sorry baby, did I wake you up? »
« No. Nightmare » she said letting a few tears escape her eyes.
« Oh sweetie come here » I opened my arms and she nuzzled her body on mine.
« How was the fake date? » she asked and I chuckled.
« It was good... Amazing actually I had so much fun » I say smiling remembering of the evening.
« Cool » she whispered her eyes closing. « can you lay down next to me? » She asked with puppy dog eyes.
« How can I say no to that cute face » I chuckled.
I lay down with to her and in a few minutes she's fast asleep. I stay here thinking about what just happened.
Except my family and my friends nobody know that I like girls, ugh I absolutely hate paparazzi they don't respect privacy.
But it's a part of being a celebrity, and I don't regret that I choose this life, I'm grateful for what I have.
And Hailee never told anything about her sexuality. I don't know how she thinks about this.
Before I can think more there's a gentle knock oat the door and Hailee entered the room.
She saw Rose and whispered « can we talk please » I nodded and we go to the guest room.
