Dating Chris Evans one shots and imagines

why did it have to be him

Y/c/n= your child's name
You and Chris weren't actually close friends, to say the most you were were just an acquaintance to each other until one day, when you got stuck on a deserted road with no one insight as your car broke down. No one answered so you called him as a last resort to come and get you.

When you were lonely, you needed a man
Someone to lean on, well I understand
It's only natural
But why did it have to be me?
Nights can be empty and nights can be cold
So you were looking for someone to hold
That's only natural
But why did it have to be me?
I was so lonesome, I was blue
I couldn't help it, it had to be you and I

You didn't expect him to actually come and get you, you were still holding out hope that one of your friends would could come through. You never thought you were good enough for him, seeing as you were 28 and a single mum, and he was 39, because you were only aquaintances, you didn't feel the need to tell him you had a child, although you had to now as your child was in their car seat napping.

Always thought you knew the reason why
I only wanted a little love affair
Now I can see you are beginning to care
But baby, believe me
It's better to forget me

He arrived "Y/n I didn't expect to hear from you, let alone this what happened?" He asked, you let out a sigh and tears start to run down your cheeks, he pulled you into a hug, which you didn't want to let go. "I've had a very bad day today, and now this happens" you answer. "Hey it's alright I'm here, come on get your stuff." You hesitated for a moment and he noticed, "it's not just me that your taking home..." You trailed off, he looked inside your car to see your 18month old child asleep in their car seat. "Is he/she the reason you pushed me away everytime I tried to get close to you?", You didn't reply but he could see the sadness in your eyes, "get her out, I will put the car seat in, I've had plenty of practice." You did as he asked and low and behold he put it in without a doubt, he grabbed the nappy bag and your stuff, just as you put Y/c/n back in the car seat, the tow truck company showed up and took your car to the mechanic of your choice.
Men are the toys in the game that you play
When you get tired, you throw them away
That's only natural
But why did it have to be me?
Falling in love with a woman like you
Happens so quickly, there's nothing to do

It was a long ride back, but you decided to answer Chris's question from earlier, "yes she was the reason why I pushed you away, I also felt like I wasn't good enough for you because of my past." Chris pulled over lifted your chin up so he could look into your eyes, "hey it's okay, our pasts don't define us, it's the present and future that define us. As for Y/c/n he/she is amazing and I don't mind one bit, he/she is a part of you and you're a package deal, any man would be lucky to have the both of you in their lives." You both feel a moment when you were looking into each other's eyes, you decided to keep driving and eventually made it into Boston.

As you pulled into the driveway of your house, you asked "would you like to come in and I will make dinner for you to thank you for your help?" "I would love to, let me grab the bags and the car seat." Y/c/n had woken up and was full of energy, Chris just laughed as he seen how happy the both of you were, secretly wishing he was Y/c/n's father, you see he had loved you from afar but thought he wasn't good enough.

Always thought you knew the reason why
I only wanted a little love affair
Now I can see you are beginning to care
But baby, believe me
It's better to forget me

After you all had dinner you put Y/c/n to bed, you then came back to where chris was, "so now that I know about Y/c/n, would you maybe want to go out with me Y/n?" He asked, "I would love to, although I don't have a babysitter or knows anyone who could look after him/her." You responded sadly, he suddenly cupped the your cheek with his hand, looking into your eyes "you can bring him/her, or if you would like I could ask my mum to look after her/him with my niece and nephews?", You stayed quiet to think for a second, thinking to yourself 'why did it have to be him?' you suddenly jumped off the deep end and kissed him, you were surprised he kissed back and you both made your way back to the bedroom, where you passionately made love to each other.

2 years on you were glad you have him that chance as you were expecting your second child with him and he was the best father to your son/daughter.
