The Little Detective

Date

Laura's Pov
Quick recap of everything that has happened in the last few months. I got a role in the next Avengers movie, I met the Marvel cast, I started living in Scarlett Johanssons house. I feel like I am forgetting something here. Oh, that's right, I found out I was kidnapped as a baby my father and his girlfriend and that I'm actually the daughter of Scarlett Johansson. So yeah, nothing to major. In all honesty I don't think Scarlett being my mother has set in yet.

Things are starting to calm down a little since telling Scarlett. I'm finally able to go to the bathroom on my own without Scarlett freaking out which is a plus. After telling her Scar refused to let me leave her line of sight which as you can guess got old pretty quick. Luckily, she has her date with Chris today which took her more convincing than I care to admit to not cancel. Look I love her and all, but your girl needs a break. I'm used to being completely alone and independent so going from that to having a helicopter parent within a day is very suffocating. Any who, Scarlett is having her mom watch Rose which is nice because it means I get the house to myself for the night. Well hopefully the night I really don't want to be hearing noises all night...

Panic. That is mainly what was going on inside my head. Rose was picked up by my mom a little over an hour ago and I had been frantically trying to get myself together. I know I'm overthinking it, but I just can't help it. I can't mess this up. I don't know what I would've done if I didn't have Chris in my life. In all honesty I don't think I would even be alive today if it weren't for him. Which is why this is so stressful. We're actually crossing that line between friendship and something more and it's terrifying. I wanted to cross this line for so long, but I've never had the guts to, and I think he feels the same. I guess we have Laura to thank for that. She still hasn't let us live that down. I don't think she ever will.

The date is in an hour, and I think I have rethought my outfit around ten times now. Chris said to dress nice since we're going to a restaurant, he still won't tell me which one though. I walked down the hall to Laura's room, after deciding that I was getting nowhere when it came to my outfit and knocked on the door. I heard a 'faint come' in, I opened the door and saw Laura sitting at her desk listening to music.

"Hey June Bug, whatcha up to?" I asked leaning on her desk.

"I'm looking through some files and working on my statement for court. John went to my house and was able to send me some stuff which can be used as evidence," she said looking through the papers sprawled out in the desk.

A sigh escaped my lips. "Bug you really shouldn't be worrying about that, the hearing isn't for another week and a half and my lawyers will handle most of it so don't worry." I reassured her. She look a little hesitant, and almost guilty. "Hey it's gonna be ok," I lifted her head with my finger so she was looking at me. She gave me a small smile before looking back down at the papers.

"Hey do maybe wanna help me pick out what to wear tonight?" I asked changing the subject.
That immediately caught her attention as a smile grew on her face and she shook her head rapidly before dashing out of the room.

I walked back to my room where I saw Laura looking through my closet. "Based on where your going your gonna want something nice but comfortable," she supplied skimming through some dresses.

"Wait what? How do you know where I'm going did Chris tell you?" I asked confused.

"Please who do you think helped him pick where to go," she rolled her eyes. "Ah," she pulled out a dress and held it out in front of her. "Perfect," she decided handing me the dress.

"You sure?" I asked unsure.

"Yes now go try it on," she insisted pushing me into closet and shutting the door.
