See You Later ~ Elizabeth Olsen

6 ~ Twins

"Hey I'm not a dork!" I respond in slight offense.

"You are, but it's okay. You're a cute dork." She grins, scrunching her nose. I blush at the comment but follow her anyway.

We make it to this restaurant on Lafayette Street called Sant Ambroeus and I instantly notice that pretty people dine here. Like everyone here is so attractive. Lizzie tells the host a name that I don't catch in my distracted gaze then tugs me over to a table where her sisters are already sat. Whoa.

"Little Lizzie!" Ashley squeals as she stands and I smile at the slight eye roll my friend shoots my way as she gets pulled into a hug.

"Hi Ash, MK, this is my new friend Y/N." She introduces me before I also get pulled into two hugs. Are all the Olsen's really good huggers?

"It's nice to meet you both." I respond as I move to sit.

"You as well. Our little sis is antisocial so it's good to see her making friends." Mary-Kate teases and I smile.

"I am too." I offer and she nods.

"Well then I'm proud of both of you." She decides. My attention shifts to Lizzie as she leans over to whisper something to me.

"Get whatever you want, they are paying." She explains and I nod. How did she know I over-thought that for at least 3 hours?

"So Y/N, what are you studying in school?" Ashley asks and motions for our waiter to refill our waters.

"Music composition and performance." I share easily.

"Oh very cool. So how did you two meet?" Ashley asks, looking between us.

"Y/N saw me being a loner and invited me to this dance thing." Lizzie explains.

"But we found out we actually have some classes together." I add on.

"Oh that's really nice. It's good to have friends while in school, Lizzie." MK lightly scolds and I tilt my head in confusion.

"Our dear sister came here thinking she was going to live in her little bubble all by herself. She's so focused. She needs to have more fun." Ashley explains and I nod in understanding.

"Yeah, my siblings get on me about that too. I admire that Lizzie knows exactly what she wants though. Nothing is going to stop her from it." I conclude with a nod.

"You know what you want too, Y/N." Lizzie reminds me and I shrug.

"What do you want to do Y/N?" MK asks.

"Uh, well. I want to produce music. For other artists. But I think it would be cool to compose for movies too. So...I have options I guess." I explain.

"Oh, I didn't know that." Lizzie shares. "I thought you were set on producing stuff. She showed me a few songs and they are really good." Lizzie tells her sister and I blush when they both turn to me with interest.

"Well well, looks like someone is going places. Lizzie is picky with her music so if she likes it you're set." MK picks at her sister and it actually makes me feel better. The sisters are so...normal. I don't know what I was expecting but it's really refreshing. We eventually order our food and continue to chat about random things.

They tell me about running a fashion empire and how Lizzie steals clothing from them all the time. "Yeah but you said you'd design my red carpet outfits if I ever get big!" She reminds them and I laugh at how they were obviously trying to get a rise out of their little sister.

"Chill, Lizzie." Ash giggles and I smile over to my friend who realizes they were successful in getting her riled up.

"You are going to get big, so they better keep their promise." I assure Lizzie and she smiles sweetly over to me.

"Get you a friend that supports you." MK teases lightly and I smile over to her. The rest of the lunch is pretty chill. They make me promise to show them some music someday which means they intend to see me again which is pretty cool. I wait on the sidewalk after hugging them and watch the sisters exchange a few comments that leave Lizzie blushing, an annoyed look on her face.

"Ready to go?" I ask, sensing she doesn't want to talk about whatever happened.

"Yes, ugh they are so annoying." She complains.

"But you love them." I observe and she smiles softly, nodding.

"I do. And they really like you." She informs me.

"Oh, that's cool. That's one of my best accomplishments now." I state seriously but it makes her laugh. Our walk back is pretty quiet, only giggling when we observe silly city people. Her hand is held in mine the entire way and I try to not overthink it again. It's nice and if I think too much about it or point it out I'm afraid it will stop.

We end up back in Washington Square Park just as the sun starts to set, so Lizzie pulls me over to sit on a bench near the Arch. We can see the Empire State Building clearly framed by the arch and it makes me happy. I've always wanted to end up here and now I am. I have a great friend and I'm studying exactly what I want to. It couldn't get better than this.

"Are you ready for our second week?" She asks and rests her head down onto my shoulder.

"I am. I'm ready for the rest of our time here. Everything is...amazing." I decide and she hums in agreement.

"Promise we will always be friends?" She whispers.

"I promise. You're stuck with me now, Lizzie bear." I tease.

"I can live with that." She decides and I scoff in light offense. "Seriously Y/N. I'm glad we met. I can tell we're going to be great friends." She shares quietly.

"Me too." I whisper, ignoring the dull ache in my heart. Once the sun sets we both naturally stand from our comfortable spot to get ready for the next day.

"See you later Y/N." She states as she waves.

"Get home safe, Lizzie." I reply with a wave. We share a smile then turn to walk in opposite directions. I flip onto my bed once I get into my room and wait for the text that she's home safe, something we've started to do without asking for it. It feels nice to know we care about each other's safety.

I stare up at my ceiling as lyrics come to mind, thinking about the blonde that seems to never leave my thoughts. I reach over to my journal and scribble random things down until my phone buzzes.

Lizzie: I'm home, thanks for coming with me today.

Me: Good, and of course. It was fun. Get some good rest, I'll see you tomorrow.

Lizzie: You too, see you then

I smile as I set the phone down and get ready for bed quickly so I can get to sleep. The quicker I sleep the quicker I get to see her again.
