Rubato - Scarlett Johansson

Part 5

Scarlett's POV

Why in the hell is Theo sitting there sulking? All I did was tease her about sitting with Cosmo, she does it all the time and I always tease her over it, so what's the big deal? I think it's adorable that she insists that he sits with her rather than in the highchair, especially because she does it knowing he hates it. I mean how could you not find an incredibly sexy British singer holding an adorable baby a sight worth watching? Honestly, I think my ovaries explode a little every time I see her with Rose and Cosmo, but that is way too much. We are just friends. 

I tried my best not to get too hung up on her clear sulking, listening to Flo, Kat and Rose talk about the origami bishop hat that Kat had just been teaching Rose. Honestly, it was pretty cute watching the pair mess around, Flo joining in while Theo sulked, only smiling when she pulled faces at Rose or messed around with Cosmo on her lap. It was cute that she was still messing around with the kids, even when I could see in her eyes that something was upsetting her. I was trying my best to figure out why she would be upset all of a sudden but I honestly couldn't understand why.

Having enough of her silence I thought maybe she was just thinking, I mean I've seen her write nearly an entire albums worth of songs in her head without even knowing she has zoned out, it's just something she does when everything gets overwhelming. "These are really good T, I didn't know you could cook this well. You are going to have to cook for me more often" I said to her, smiling as I watched her feed Cosmo some syrup which made him giggle happily. What I wasn't expecting was for Kat to start bursting out with laughter right after what I said, making me turn to her in confusion, briefly catching a deep scowl on Theo's face as she glared at her little sister.

"Um?" I started, not really knowing what to say to her reaction. "Flo, you know that party tomorrow night? Kat is coming with us, she's going to be my plus one. Could you really quickly tell her how much she is going to want to come. I mean it would be unfortunate if I suddenly decided I wanted to ditch the party and go clubbing instead, wouldn't it? Kat can't even step foot into a club here, you know with her not being twenty-one and all" Theo said, smiling at Flo while her eyes glare at her sister who seems to be sulking, just like how Theo was minutes ago. They really are scarily similar.

Now it was Flo's turn to laugh, looking between the two sisters who seemed to be having a staring contest. "Believe me, Kat, you want her to bring you to the party tomorrow night. You will be kicking yourself if you miss out on this, I'm going too. It will give you major bragging rights with your brothers, especially Rhys" Flo teased, making me understand. Tomorrow night Robert is throwing a party for the Marvel crew, all the originals plus the new charters and some high ups and what not. He's throwing it at his place and it's going to be the first time we have all met up in a while. What I don't understand is how Theo has her own invite. I knew she was coming but I figured she was just Flo's plus one, I never considered she had her own invite, I just want to know how she got that. As far as I know, she doesn't even know Robert.

"Are there going to be famous people?" Kat asks slowly, eyes still locked with her sister's, not backing down, which just made the older one scoff. "You are sat around a table with the top-paid actress, top-paid musician and Florence Pugh, who is the hottest thing in movies at the moment. We are literally three of the most famous women in the western world. And you have the cheek to ask if there are going to be famous people. When is it going to sink in that I am the famous person?" Theo teased, although a part of me couldn't help but feel like she was genuinely asking her sister that question. 

Kat just scoffed, rolling her eyes as she looked between her sister and Flo before turning to me with a big smile "you Scarlett are a famous person and it is an honour to meet you, honestly you are one of my idols. I mean I don't love you as much as Theo over there, but still I really respect all the work you do. I actually love your skin line" she started, before reverting her gaze back to the other two blonds "but you two are thing one and two, dumb and dumber, who changed my nappies and scare off any and every guy I have tried to date" she continued, her voice whiney as she complained, making me laugh a little.
