Lights, camera, love.

Chapter 24

Y/N's Perspective

The rest of the week was fun and interesting. Krysten continued with her game of flirty comments, and I played along. It was an exchange of compliments and provocative looks, but nothing more. I knew to surprise Krysten, I had to take it a step further. After what happened at that lunch, I discovered her weak spot: physical contact.

I would caress her back or subtly brush her hand as we walked on the set, so Lesli wouldn't notice. I know, I was breaking the rules. But seeing Krysten's reaction made me enjoy the situation. Lizzie was surprised by my moves, and I was surprised myself.

At home, I felt more relaxed, and my comments were a bit bolder. I would say things like "Krysten, your outfit for today's filming was very sexy" or "When will you make all those things you tell me come true?" I would see her flustered and with flushed cheeks. One night, while watching a movie, I sat next to her and teased her with a touch or hug. She responded for a moment, but then she pulled away a bit from me. Honestly, I thought she would do more. It was only a matter of time before Krysten gave in.

Saturday came, a day without alarms, without hurry, and best of all, time to spend with my favorite person. Lizzie was sleeping on her stomach, facing me with her hair tousled. Every day, her beauty dazzled me even more. My hermosa.

The first rays of the sun illuminated the room, allowing me to admire every detail of the beautiful woman sleeping beside me. The woman who captured my heart and showed me that you can love without fear. These months together, both alone and with the girls, were wonderful. Lizzie always finds a way to show me that what we have is worth it, seeking moments alone to talk about our feelings and to show them.

I know that when filming ends, our living together will change, marking a new step in our relationship and future together. I was eager to see what that would be like but also wished to stay here, where we've settled and understand how things work. Living together has let us know each other on a different level and, in a way, prepared us for any challenges that may arise.

Slowly, Lizzie began to wake up. One of her hands went to her face, rubbing her eyes to come out of the dream world. Our eyes met, and a big smile formed on her face. Those green eyes that looked at me for the first time in that sunset still had their hypnotizing power. "Hi," she whispered.

I couldn't help but smile until my cheeks stretched to their fullest. I couldn't stop looking at her. Gently, I caressed her face, making her close her eyes for a moment and enjoy the affection.

The room was silent, while my love and admiration for Lizzie were reflected in my gaze. A tear escaped my eyes, and Lizzie's face filled with concern. "What's wrong?" she said, adjusting herself and turning to her side, "What's up, baby?" she asked, putting a hand on my cheek.

The words spilled from my lips, "I love you," without any warning.

Upon saying that, Lizzie's face filled with surprise, which soon turned into happiness and a smile so big it made her nose crunch. "Y/N... I love you too," she replied, confirming that our love was mutual.

I moved closer to her, and our lips met in a tender kiss, unlike any other, full of passion, tenderness, and love. Love. I loved this woman and would not stop showing it to her every day of my life. After the kiss, we hugged, enjoying this intimate and overwhelmingly happy moment.

After more demonstrations of love and taking a bath together, we went downstairs. The girls were chatting while enjoying breakfast. We decided to go out and explore the city, with the calm and autumnal atmosphere in the streets.

We chose to go in the same car, this time Elizabeth offered hers. So, Lily was in the passenger seat, and Lizzie, Krysten, and I were in the back seats, with me in the middle. Subtly, I brushed my hand on Krysten's leg to see her reaction, and when she did nothing, I knew she was ready this time.
