C.Evans / S.Stan Imagines & Preferences

Best brothers ever.

This was an ask from tumblr requests are always welcome!
—————
Summary: family is over at the Evans Household, the cousins get too loud for y/n's brain to handle, which causes the best big brother to step in.

Warnings of meltdowns, mentions of anxiety, sensory overload, issues

Paring: Brother! Chris Evans x Little Sister! Reader
——————————

it's all started at a family gathering that is at the Evans' family home so y/n was comfortable because after the diagnosis of y/n's autism at only 4, a couple of years prior the family found she didn't do well at big functions even if it was family outside of the house plus shed have everything she needed. 

All of the cousins are playing a few games like tag and catch whilst the adults are sitting just chatting and watching the kids, whilst Scott was grilling on the barbeque.

This was all going on, Chris being the overprotective brother he is to her sweetpea noticed the sudden demeanour change in y/n as she became quiet, almost becoming a shell of herself.

it starts to get really loud and all the kids are trying to get something like a ball for the game and they all start to crowd y/n so she starts to panic
"no like- I-I don't like" y/n shouted tears streaming down her face
All the adults turned around in alarm on hearing her alarming scream.

Chris intervened and took her away into the kitchen from everything to try and calm her down with the squishy elephant that she named Elle because it was her comfort sensory item due to the material. "to--o much chri-ss-y too m-uch"  she said through sobs but despite his best effect to soothe her by rocking her with deep pressure, snuggling her whilst whispering sweet encouragement in her ear, alas it doesn't work so it blows into a full-blown meltdown. it did break his heart seeing her like this but it was normal.

He'd be calm reacting to it because he has seen it happen so much,
"shhh baba, it's okay" he reassured her as he walked upstairs with her on his hip.  all he got back from assuring her was another sobbed-filled whine mixed with a scream.

They go into his room with a weighted blanket that is one of many in the house - and a hoodie out of his closet for her because his scent calms her with the box of sensory toys he keeps in his room to try to get her to focus on the calm room that he had since it's a calm serene room that is miles better than the loud overwhelming outside, that is just naturally calming.

Dodger joins as standard, y/n lays on Chris with her blanket wrapped around her and Elle tucked into her chest, now just reduced to hiccups; "Sweetpea are you feeling better now?" Chris asks concerned but happy she calmed down way faster than he thought, which indicated the meltdown was bad but not too bad, he'd praised how far she'd come in the 45 minutes since the meltdown started.

"Yeah Chrissy, want Scotty to watch mermaid with you" y/n shyly replied. usually after meltdowns, all y/n wanted was her two big brothers, Dodgee and mermaid.
Mermaid is what she'd called The Little Mermaid ever since Chris showed her it, she only called it mermaid because she didn't get the whole title bit or the word dodger so it was 'her Dodgee', it was all a work in progress with her speech therapist

Chris acts like he does before he gets her out of the garden, and tried to calm her. It was normal for him he grew up with it so did everyone else Scott and Chris saw it more since they'd either calm her or be there for the aftermath or both, yes it was different when they found out about it and when you had her first major meltdown but he knows how and what he can do now due to the 'experience' because every person's meltdown was different. To be honest, out of all the family he can calm her down as well as she calms him when he has panic attacks they almost cancel each other out.

Scott got a text from his phone, reading it;

Big Bro: sweetpea is all calm now, she'd like you upstairs too and I quote 'watch mermaid with Scotty, Chrissy and Dodgee'.

Scotty: 'okay ill be upstairs soon, I'm glad she's better :)'

Scott had told every y/n was fine and that she wanted mermaid, he made his way upstairs to Chris's room and walked in to see them both snuggled on his king-size bed with the little mermaid on the tv.

"Hey sweetie you look comfy, feeling better?" he said as a matter of factly the reply he got was just an "mhmh otty come way down" so he did.

Y/n's meltdowns always took it out of her so within 30 minutes of the film being on she was out like a light it was bound to come because her speech was slurred when she was tired, and both Evans' brothers breathe a sigh of relief. They both hated seeing their sweet girl getting worked up to the point where she couldn't get her words across literally drawn to hysterical tears.

At the end of the day, y/n was just y/n despite the diagnosis nothing changes at all. They all loved her no matter what and supported the bumps in the road that a six-year-old could grasp.

Regardless the Evans family couldn't be more proud of their Y/n despite the obstacles that she has and will face however they knew, wholeheartedly nothing will stop their girl.

Ever.
