Not for a Single Second - [Elizabeth Olsen]

Chapter 81: My One and Only Soulmate

So I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait, I'm sure
There's no need to complicate
Our time is short
This is our fate, I'm yours

I'm Yours - Jason Mraz

Y/N's POV

"Princess, I can sense that you're struggling. You don't have to cover my eyes. I can just keep them shut myself"

"Would you just shut up and let me do this? You're ruining the moment", I hear Lizzie scold me and whine due to my words as we continue to walk wherever her surprise for Date #9 is. "It's not my fault you're a giant"

"Hey! It's not my fault you're a hobbit", I snap back at her comment but instantly regret it when Lizzie smacks the back of my head hard. She used the hand that has all the rings. "Ow! That was not nice. I feel like we've been walking for ages. Where are you taking me anyways?"

"Oh, gosh. And I thought I was impatient. We're almost there, Y/N. Only a few more steps and...we're here", Lizzie tells me before finally removing her hands from over my eyes. I blink a couple of times, trying to get used to the light change, before being met with one of the most beautiful sights ever.

"Princess, this is...amazing", I say while still in shock with what Lizzie has planned for our date. "How did you manage to do all of this without me figuring it out?", I ask genuinely confused. It is really difficult for Lizzie to hide things from me.

"Well, I had some help organizing everything to actually give you a surprise, and I think I did a pretty good job", Lizzie tells me while sliding her hands around my torso before hugging me from behind and resting her head over my shoulder. I look back at her as she smiles at me in success of her plan, causing us to giggle together before I move around in Lizzie's grasp to hug her back. "Shall we go sit down?"

"Please, lead the way", I tell her, and Lizzie does her adorable nose scrunch before breaking our embrace to intertwine our hands and walk us towards the table setup. I let go of Lizzie's hand to move her chair and help her sit down first, but instead of sitting down, she shakes her head at my actions. "What's wrong, Princess?"

"Nothing, Angel. Tonight, I'm taking the lead of this date, and I'm pampering you so, come over here and let ME help YOU with your chair", Lizzie explains to me with a cheeky grin as she moves the other chair for me to sit. I shake my head at her antics but still budge to her request.

"Okay, Ms. Olsen. I'm all yours", I happily surrender to my Princess's charm by walking closer to her before pecking her lips softly and letting her move my chair while I sit down at the table.

"Thank you, Ms. Girard. I just hope you like what I've chosen for our dinner", Lizzie explains to me nervously while she sits down in front of me.

"Well, if you chose it, I'm sure I'll love it", I reassure her while moving my hand over the table and silently asking for Lizzie's hand. She easily gives in to my actions and grabs my hand. We squeeze each other's hands in a supporting matter before I start to rub Lizzie's knuckles softly. We continue to look at the other with so much love and adoration before Lizzie moves her free hand up and a group of waiters appears from behind me. I watch in silence as they bring over a couple of platters and place them in front of us. "You hired waiters too?", I ask rather impressed.
