"Calm down, Juls! Please!" Lizzie said.
The last thirty minutes since Chris had said that in the interview, I was screaming and having a panic attack. I was going to end him as soon as I saw him. My mom called me. Scott called me. Sam called me. Even Mary, Chris' agent, called me. Lizzie had tried to explain to me that he didn't say my name or show a pic of me. So I should be calm. But I couldn't. The idea of moving with Chris was such a big step in our relationship but making things publics. I was so scared.
"I can't! That stupid, silly, dumbass, stupid..."
"You said stupid twice."
"I don't care! That wasn't what we discuss, Lizzie."
"I know..." My phone rang. It was Chris. Again. "You need to answer to him." Lizzie handed me the phone.
"Hello?" I said trying to calm myself.
"I'm sorry, babe. I'm really sorry. I know that wasn't what we have planned and you have the right to be mad at me..."
"Christopher Robert Evans, you can't imaging how mad at you I'm right now."
"I'm downstairs. Can you come and talk to me, please? I know Lizzie is there and you are going to spend all night together so I don't know if I'm welcome there."
"Chris.. I..." Lizzie nodded at me and almost push me outside my place. "Okay, I will be there. Give me a second."
"Great, honey."
"Okay. First." Lizzie said. "Calm down and let him explain himself. Second, can I spy you two trough the balcony?"

I opened the front door and Chris was there. Almost like the first night we were dating. The picture of him with a suit wasn't helping me keeping a straight face. Why did he had to look that hot in a suit? I tried to forget that idea of my mind. Chris came to kiss me but he stopped when he looked at my face.
"Babe..." He said. "I'm so sorry. It was a game and I got carry away. I totally understand you are mad at me."
"I'm so mad at you. We were waiting to know if I was going to be a permanent staff member."
"I know. So things won't interfere in your job. I was such a stupid."
"Stupid, silly, dumbass..."
"I know. I have you and you are so incredible and amazing. And I want the world to know that I have a my girlfriend and that she is so amazing and incredible...."
"Chris..."
"If you want me to take back what I said today... I can say it was a joke or something..."
"I really want people to know I'm dating you... you know how much I love you. And we are going to move together tomorrow."
"Are you still moving with me?"
"Of course! I'm mad at you but I don't want to break up with you. We are just talking things so we can figure out how to manage this new situation. Why would you say that?"
"Because you are going to break with me." He said.
"WHAT?! NO! I'm not gonna break up with you. Why would you say such a thing?!"
"Because I messed up things. And I have the feeling that you don't want people to know we are dating... that maybe you are embarrassed of dating me."
"Oh my God! Chris! No!" I said hugging him. "You could never embarrassed me. I love you. I want people to know we are dating. I want to live with you and see your face every single day. I want to live happy with you each single day. I want to post pics of you on my instagram and tell the whole world how much I love you. I know that last one is silly. I told you we are going to have to talk and discuss all the stuff that will come into our relationship... It's how things work and we won't throw our relationship because we have a minor fight. We are going to fix it and figure out how to grow together in this new step. And..."
