i woke up before the sunrise feeling more dread towards tomorrow. i look at the time to see it was 4:07 in the morning.

i laid my head back down on dahlias chest and she wrapped her arms around me. "go back to sleep my love" she kissed my temple without opening her eyes.

i hummed and the brunette fell back asleep quickly. for the next hour i closed my eyes but couldn't fall asleep myself.

i got up slowly limping slightly as i walked out of the room. dahlia shifted in her sleep but didn't wake up.

i walked out of the room with my phone in hand. and made my way to the balcony. i did the thing i hadn't done in ages and opened instagram to look at recent news articles.

i go to recent film news and that's where i find a lot of searches about me.

"is y/n y/l/ns recent injury's a result of a failed stunt during filming"

"y/n y/l/n abused?"

"A-list actress y/n y/l/ns parents claimed dead from recent plane crash"

"does elizabeth olsen have a secret daughter"

people. it seems someone has linked enough of information to get a gist of my life. i was just glad they don't know anything to in depth.

i check my emails next. most of my marvel emails get sent to both lizzie and i since she was the adult signed on my atlanta papers so i knew the main things. but when i opened my work emails i was shocked.

several people had reached out for me to play parts in different shows or movies. some of them even being lead rolls.

i read through one of the descriptions and it was about this struggling girl in foster care who finally finds a home. i don't know it was to early to read but it was meant to be a drama. with really dark themes. similar sort of vibe to one of lizzie's films. i can't really remember.

ever since my parents last visit i've had such a terrible memory i'm almost scared to go back to filming incase i forget my lines.

"y/n come back to bed" a sleepy dahlia comes out the balcony door. i shut my phone off not wanting to tell anyone about the offers. and smile at her holding my arms out.

it's not often dahlia let's me hold her, usually she holds me which of-course i love but this is also nice.

she lays her head on my shoulder grabbing my hand. "are you sure your okay" she whispers to me.

i let out a long breath. should i tell someone what's wrong. i mean it's not that big of a deal or at least it shouldn't be by now. it's been what almost 6 years.

dahlia starts to rub the back of my hand in comfort as she sits up and looks at me. i realise i haven't said anything yet and wipe my eyes that had started to tear up.

"you have to promise not to tell anyone" i start.

she draws her eyebrows together but nods regardless telling me i can trust her. which i do. ive just never told anyone new this.

"tomorrow is a hard day. it would be 6 years since-" i went on for probably an hour explaining everything. we both had tears in our eyes and my heart sunk as i started to tell the story again. a story i've never said fully aloud. not even at his funeral.

if you could call it a funeral.

"and that's why i steal everyone close to mes clothes" she brought me into her arms holding the back of my head. "oh babe" i could tell she was at a loss for words.

i hugged her back hiding my head in her neck. we eventually pull away and i avoid eye contact looking at the now rising sun.

there was an awkward silence as i now started to overthink every saying anything.

"sorry for just dumping that all on you i didn't mean to make you cry first thing in the morning. can we just forget what i said. it's no big deal" i pulled my leg up to my chest curling in on myself as best i could.

"no. im not letting you do that y/n/n, don't push it all down, what happened happened and it can't change but i won't let you let your past consume you anymore" she held my face in her hands making sure i herd her.

i really don't deserve her.

tears freely flow from my eyes as my bottom lip  starts to quiver. "te amo mia cara, never forget that" she whispers. "hasta que la muerte nos separe. mi amor por ti será para siempre."

"that would probably be really sweet if i spoke spanish" i laughed choking on my tears.

she smiles brushing a piece of hair out of my face.

"i love you my dear, till death do we part. my love for you will be forever" she repeated again in english.

"did you just propose to me?" she just smiles and i pull her in for another hug. "d-dans la maladie e-et dans la santé. mon amour pour toi sera s-sans fin" i choked out

"is that french?" she tilted her head. to which i nodded. "what did you say"

"in sickness and in health. my love for you will be endless" i said just above a whisper. the birds had started singing and the sunrise was just magnificent.

"you speak french?" she said in admiration.

"that's a story for another day" i shook my head tears in my eyes again. "gotta keep up the mysterious facade" we laughed and i hugged her again.

suddenly the balcony door opened. it was tom. "please tell me you guys didn't break up. cause i'm rooting for you's" he said noticing our tear stained faces. we shook out heads and he let out a relived breath.

"okay good. anyway y/n your mothers after you to go to your appointment" he said i nodded saying i'll be down in a second.

i pulled out my phone again and checked the time seeing it was closer to 7am now. my appointment was for 8am. horrible i know.

thé both of us first walk into the bathroom to wash our faces before heading downstairs.
