A couple of days went by. Chris got busy with some screen tests. One evening he called me asking me to come over and I did bringing a little surprise with me.

I got to his place and let myself in. I could hear Chris in the kitchen singing and probably dancing.

Yes, he was frying something in a pan that smelled delicious while singing and dancing.

I sat on the aisle. He had no clue I was there so I grabbed an orange from the fruit bowl to my right and threw it at him. It hit his back.

-¡OW, SHIT!- He jumped and turned around in .02 seconds- I'm gonna kill you, Nat.

-Well aren't you cute, dancing and cooking, Mrs. Downey Jr.

-Wait. ¿What's that in your hands?- He asked pointing at the big envelope in my hands.

I lifted my eyebrows like I didn't know what he was talking about.

-Don't play games with me, woman. ¿Is it? –He said threatening me with a spatula.

-¿The... contract?

We were now sitting at the table facing each other with glasses of wine that Chris kindly poured in front of us.

-¿Mr. Evans, should I proceed to read the contract?

-Nat. ¿Are you sure? –He asked concerned. So sweet.

-Yes.

-¿How many clauses?

-About... ten.

He sighed.

-This AGREEMENT is made this day of _________, by and between CHRIS EVANS and NATALIE GALEO.

A. Both parties desire to engage in sexual activities sporadically for the next three months of the present year, starting as soon as the contract is signed.

B. There will not be a formal relationship.

In consideration of the mutual covenants set forth in this agreement, both parties agree as follows:

1. This decision has been of mutual interest. No person is being forced.

2. The sexual activities will be held at any time of preference.

3. During the period of validation of this contract, both parties will remain single.

4. A discussion shall be held if any of the parties desire clause changes.

I paused my reading and looked carefully at Chris. His faced had changed; he was staring at me so intensely. I had never seen him like that before.

5. No jealousy will be allowed.

6. No interest in a third person will be allowed.

7. Confidentiality is required. This contract will not be read, discussed or seen by a third party.

8. Sexual activities will not be recorded or photographed in any way.

9. This agreement can and will be used as proof if needed.

-Wait. ¿What does that mean?- Asked Chris.

-It means that if I catch you with another girl or Hemsworth in bed I can rub this piece of paper in your face and call it a day with this whole thing.

-But there's no jealousy allowed.

-It's exclusiveness. Clause 3.

-Hmm... very smart. –Chris smiled at me.
