No one's pov

Scarlett rushed around her LA home, husband Colin trailing behind, both trying to get the last of the preparations finished for their dinner party. Colin had been in the kitchen all day, preparing an array of dishes for an elaborate three-course meal. He was proud of all the food he had made and insisted the house decorations be at the same level as the food. Scarlett, who really wanted to make a good impression on everyone invited, had no objections to the plan. As the last napkin was placed, the doorbell rang. Scarlett opened the door to reveal Robert, Chris Evans, Sebastian Stan, and Elizabeth Olsen with her boyfriend Robbie Arnett. A look of disdain almost crept onto Scarlett's face as she looked at Robbie, but RDJ handed her a bouquet before any sign she didn't like the man could appear.

"Robert you do have the best taste in flowers" she thanked, stepping inside to find a vase, the others following her into the house. "Oh and before I forget, I invited one more guest. She's the one who saved Rose at the airport and hopefully our new stunt coordinator"

"Exciting" Chris remarked, earning a smile from Colin. "So, who is the mystery person?"

Scarlett opened her mouth to respond, cut off by the doorbell ringing once more. Colin opened the door to a very nervous-looking Harley holding a bottle of wine.

Harley's pov

I was so nervous about Scarlett's dinner party, preparing my outfit the entire day before. After a lot of debate, I decided to wear a simple green velvet suit and a black silk shirt with a multitude of expensive silver jewellery. I didn't know who else was going, which somehow made the entire ordeal more nerve-wracking. Scarlett had mentioned that Colin was doing a fancy beef roast so I settled on bringing a nice bottle of red wine, picking 'Domaine de la Romanee-Conti Romanee-Conti Grand Cru 1990' as the best option for a celebrity household that probably had very high tastes.

The drive to their house was scenic, made better by the playlist I chose. My Ferrari hugged the curves of the road beautifully as I rounded each corner, the 1960s engine roaring to life every time I pushed the accelerator. I had barely looked at my other cars after it arrived days after I got back from Vegas. I checked the dashboard clock as I pulled into their drive, only to realise I was a couple of minutes late. I cursed under my breath as I made my way to the door, pushing the doorbell lightly.

I was greeted by a man I assumed was Colin.

"Beautiful car you have there. I've always loved the classics" He welcomed, his kind demeanour and smile making me feel immediately welcomed into their home. I smiled an awkward thanks, stepping in to introduce myself. RDJ shot up from his seat and pointed at me.

"You know Harley Varon and you weren't going to tell me?" he said, slightly yelling at Scarlett, eyes filling with a genuine hurt.

"Wait you two know each other?" she replied looking between us confused.

"I wish. She's an undefeated UFC fighter and one of my personal favourites in the octagon" Robert exclaimed pointing at me. The rest of the group's eyes were now all fixed on me, Colin starting to also recognise who I was.

"I saw your fight last night when Rob and Chris were round, I thought your face was familiar. You were brilliant!" Colin exclaimed.

"Wait I saw you fight in Serbia. You practically took the other fighter's head off" Sebastian joked, recreating the punch for the others. I grinned as he made graphic blood splatter noises, before handing Colin the bottle of wine I brought. As he glanced at the label, his face went slightly pale and he looked for the closest surface to put it on. "Are you sure? This wine is very hard to come by"
