AN: Hi! Hello!? Is anyone still here?! It's been an AGE since I last updated. I'm sorry :( I will be updating more frequently from now on. Hoping my writer's block doesn't come back again!
Lucy's POV
So here it is. The day of the party, and Charlie and I were on our way to pick Chris and Seb up from the airport. Charlie had the stereo turned up as we listened to some old skool hip hop- a usual whenever we went on any drive together. I sat shotgun, with my bottle of water and the biggest bag of Herr's Ketchup flavoured chips I could find. Yep. The cravings were real. "where in the hell did you find those?" Charlie scrunched up her face as she eyed the precious bag. "at the store on 87th. I had a hankering for something and I didn't know what. Turned out to be these" I shrugged as I munched on them, dipping my hand back into the bag. "the cravings seem to have appeared from nowhere" she added, looking back to the road. "yeah" I huffed, "I thought it was in my head, y'know, since the appointment last week- but when I think back, I was panic buying cheetos a few weeks back and cheesecake too" I mumbled. "I couldn't get enough. I thought it was because I was working so much and my body was craving the sugar and carbs. Guess not" I chuckled. Charlie snorted, "didn't think cravings started so soon"
"me either. Apparently they can start as soon as you conceive" I shrug. "either way, these are goood" I looked adoringly into the bag as Charlie laughed. "have you tried your outfit on for tonight lately?" she grinned, so I gave her the finger. "I'll have you know it still fits nicely." I replied, "luckily it's a little loose in the waist" I added, making her snigger. "little ironic you're going as an angel huh" she sniggered again. "laugh it up asshole" I replied, "at least I've not been made to go as an Umpa Lumpa" I burst out laughing at the thought of Charlie in her costume. She groaned at the idea too. "God why do I let him charm me the way he does?" she questioned, making me smile, "because it's Sebastian Stan and he can make any woman do whatever the hell he wants" I replied, and she didn't argue.
.........
Soon enough, we were pulling into the parking lot of the airport. We were in Charlie's Lincoln, or Pimp Wagon as she so affectionately calls it. Pulling into a space at the back of the lot. "can you see them?" she asked me as I glanced around us, seeing lots of people, but "no 6 foot super soldiers" I sighed, making her giggle. "I cannot wait to get my hands on all 6 inches of him" Charlie giggled. I gave her a side eye. "only 6 inches?" I smirked. "Just cause you're pregnant doesn't mean I can't punch you" she said as she playfully thumped my arm. I snorted at her and flicked open the lid of my water bottle. Man Gatorade was another one of my downfalls right now.
"have you thought about it anymore? What you're gonna say?" Charlie asked, caution in her voice as always where this subject was concerned anyway. I sighed and unconsciously began smoothing my hand over my stomach. My eyes never left the entrance to the terminal building and I blinked behind my sunglasses. "I'm hoping the words come to me when I see him. Or at least the idea of when to tell him" I answered. It was well known to both of us that I was struggling with how to tell him the news. Like, this wasn't an ideal situation right? We were nothing more than a relatively new couple- barely even known- we didn't live together, we'd not even met one another's families (other than Scott and Dodger) and here I was, carrying his child. "I think my morning sickness is coming back for round 2 today" I swallowed, feeling the familiar burning bubbling up my oesophagus. "Well, ya better swallow it back down Sweet pea, cause they're here"
At Charlie's words my eyes opened sharply and I focused back onto the doors of the terminal. There they were. Walking out into the hot Scottsdale sunshine, baseball hats covering their heads, both hiding their blue eyes with ray ban sunglasses- yet they still stopped traffic with their presence, even though people were oblivious to who they were. My phone chimed with a new message as I watched Chris slip his phone back into the pocket of his navy gym pants. His head darted around as he looked around for us, not taking too long before he spotted us at the back of the arrivals lot. That big toothy smile erupted onto his face as Sebastian's hand smacked into his chest, nodding over to where Chris was already looking.
We're here babe. Can't wait to have you in my arms x
I smiled at the message he had just sent me- unaware that I already had eyes on him. I locked my phone and pushed it into my back pocket before looking up to find them the two of them walking this way.
Charlie left my side, rushing up to Sebastian with her arms wide. I couldn't help but giggle at her. Seb dropped his bag onto the ground beside him and picked her up, spinning her around with the biggest smile on his face. Damn it was cute.
"you ignoring my messages now?" that smooth voice asked, distracting me from Seb and Charl. I turned my head to Chris, slowly walking up to me. His holdall in his right hand, the veins in his arm protruding just the right amount. I smiled. "I knew you were here" I smiled at him, "I just like to make you wait" I watched as he moved as close to me as he could, without physically touching me. "you know I'm an impatient kinda guy" he smirked, looking down at me. "Can't say I'm not worth the wait though?" I replied, and sorta questioning myself at the same time. He let out a small chuckle and pulled his bottom lip between his teeth. "Can't argue with that" he smirked, before I felt his left hand cup my cheek and his soft lips press up against mine.
"Come on Evans! Put her down man! We gotta go!" Sebastian yelled obnoxiously at us. Chris sighed against my lips and a laugh fluttered out of my mouth. "Thank God you two don't house share" he muttered before he pulled away from me completely. I snorted out a laugh as I gathered myself together. Chris threw his bag into the trunk and followed me into the back of the car.
...........
"how was your flight?" I asked Chris as we sat holding hands in the back of the car. Seb and Charlie talking animatedly in the front. "good. But it was taking a little too long" He smiled at me, his cheeks flushing pink. I couldn't help but flash him a shy smile. "I told ya I'm impatient" he chuckled, "I couldn't wait to see my girl" He all but whispered, leaning towards me. I reciprocated his moves and brought my body across the seats towards him. Our noses brushed each others as I felt Chris' hand smooth over my stomach and rest there- making me flinch.
"You okay Darlin'?" he asked, pulling away in concern. I felt my face burn pink and I felt Charlie's eyes flash back to me in the rear view. I bit my lip and nodded, looking down between us briefly. "man I forgot how ticklish you are sweetheart " he winked. I need to tell him. Pronto.
