Life As It Is

Meeting Scarlett

Chris' pov
I let Olivia get settled in as I started on lunch. As I was preparing lunch, I'm also thinking of what to make tonight since Scarlett is coming to meet my kid. She couldn't wait so it had to be tonight even though I told her that maybe Olivia needs more time. I should probably go talk to her about that...and if she's allergic to anything. That would be smart if I asked her before starting. I ran upstairs and lightly knocked on her door. I waited for a response but I didn't get one so I just walk in. I see her fast asleep on her bed smiling. I walk towards her and sit on the edge of her bed. 

"Olivia?" I gently shake her awake. "What? Who's there?" She immediately shot up and I backed away a little. "It's just me" I tell her. "Good nap?" I ask question her and she nods her head. "I came here to tell you two things, one Scarlett is coming over tonight after I told her that you'd probably would want to settle down first. Second, are you allergic to anything?" I don't think she's fully awake yet since she's staring at me like I'm a ghost or something. "One, that's fine that Scarlett is coming over. I'm actually excited to finally meet her and second, I am deathly allergic to sea food" she tells me and I take notes.

"Good to know. Now is there anything specific you would like for lunch?" I ask her and she rubs her eyes. "Um anything is fine thank you" she lays back down and looks at me. Thank god because I already started. "Can I go back to sleep?" Her eyes are already closing. "Yeah I'll wake you up when it's ready" she hums a reply and I kiss her head and walk out closing the door behind me. I go downstairs and start on lunch. I'm just thinking of making sandwiches so that I can make something more fancier for supper. I hope she likes it. I make her and myself a peanut butter and jelly sandwich and cut them in half. I set that a side for now and grab some carrots and wash them up. I have a heart shaped carrot cutter so I used that and placed them on her plate and mines. 

After that, I set the plates on the table and walk upstairs to her room. I knock again but I get a response this time. "Come in!" I hear her say and I walk it seeing her looking out the window. "You okay?" I walk up to her. "Yup! Is it ready?" I nod my head and she runs downstairs but stops at the bottom. "Why'd you stop?" I look at her confused. "Um I don't know the place too much" I nod my head. "Well after lunch I'll give you a house tour" I tell her and walk to the dining room. She follows me and when she sees the food she runs to it. "Ooooh my favourite!" She starts to eat and I laugh. "Make sure you chew" I tell her as I sit down next to her to eat. During lunch, she started chocking me literally die inside. I didn't know what to do so I started hitting her back. She was good after 5 seconds. 

After lunch

I put our plates in the dishwasher and put some other things in it and started it up. I'm thinking of taking her to the mall to get more clothes. I noticed that she didn't pack much so we could do that today. I'll ask her. I see her still sitting where she was for lunch with her cracked phone in her hand. "Hey Olivia" she looks up from her phone and smiles at me. "Call me Liv, Olivia makes me feel like I'm in trouble" she tells me and I take note of that. "After the house tour, would you like to go shopping for some things you'd like?" I sit next to her and her eyes go wide. "Really? Like are you being serious?" I just laugh. "I'm dead serious and we can get whatever you'd like" she jumps up from her seat and runs towards me and hugs me. "Thank you!" I hug her back and kiss her head. "Anything for my little girl" she laughs at that and pulls away. "House tour?" She does these puppy eyes and tilting her head a little. Oh god, that's going to be the death of me. "Yup follow me" I start to walk and I feel a small hand slip in mine.

I show her the backyard, living room, movie room, my room just in case she needs anything, bonus room and all the other rooms in a house. "Okay now that I showed you the whole house, ready to go to the mall?" I ask her and she nods her head. She ran upstairs to get god knows what. As she did that, I decided to text Scar seeing if she wants to come with us since I don't know much about girl clothes and stuff. She obviously said yes so we are going to pick her up on the way. "Okay I'm ready!" I grab my keys and we head out.

Olivia's pov
I hop in the passenger seat and buckle myself up. "I'm going to pick up Scarlett on the way, Is that okay with you?" He starts the car and backs up from the drive way. Holy shit! Okay keeping your cool. "T-totally" I laugh nervously. We start driving to her house and I can feel myself getting more nervous. "Hey it's going to be okay" he tells me as we pull up to a nice modern house. Just like Chris' but different obviously. "What if she doesn't like me?" I look out the window waiting for her to come out. "Trust me she will" as he finished saying that, I see her front door open and there she is. Scarlett Johansson. I don't know how long I've been staring because the next thing I know, I hear a knock at my window making me jump. I look up and see her waving at me and smiling. Okay maybe she does like me. "Hey Chris and this must be Olivia" she gets in the car and buckles herself up. I just wave at her. I don't trust myself talking right now.

We drive to the mall and it's mostly them talking about upcoming movies, interviews and other boring mumbo jumbo. They did ask me some few questions but I mostly stayed silent. On the outside I'm super chill but on the inside IM SHITTING MY PANTS.
