How Will I Know? • Chris Evans

exes! Chris x Reader

"Shit I'm going to be late," your friend sighs, checking her phone to see when her uber was arriving, "why aren't you dressed?!"

Marching into your room, she grabs some earrings that she loves to borrow and you've been thinking of just giving them to her.

"I'm not feeling it, Jules," you stare at your ceiling, you haven't been able to sleep or eat well these last couple days.

He consumes your thoughts, and your dreams, but you promised yourself no more. "I'm just going to call it an early night."

"Oh sweetie," she frowns at you, "why don't you just call him? He'd probably love to hear from you."

You shake your head, fighting the tears swelling your eyes and closing your throat, "no, I'm fine, I just need to be alone."

She looks sad, but your friend approaches you to give you a hug, "if you change your mind, you know where I'll be, and to be honest I can't think of a better way to get over Chris than getting under someone else."

You chuckle lightly, giving her another hug, she smelled just like her perfume and looked hot. Ready for a night full of fun with your other friends.

"I'm not ready to be in another relationship, J."

"Who said anything about relationships? I'm talking one night stands, and losing their number."

"That's dangerous, you know?"

Crossing her arms, she stands by your bed, with an amused face, "dangerous how?"

"The guy could be a serial killer." You've seen a lot of news and crime documentaries to see the traits of a crazy guy when you see them or meet them.

Thankfully Chris did not show any red flags, crime related or not.

"Oh please, maybe killing this pussy."

"Oh my god!" You can't suppress the laugh, it comes flying out, and she smiles at you. Touching up her hair in your mirror.

Jules gets a call from one of your other girlfriends, and her phone buzzes with multiple texts, the uber was probably here with all your friends inside it.

"Gotta go! Don't sulk too hard. I'll be calling Thomas to make sure you're not going down the break up hole."

"Bye bye!" You wave playfully at your roommate and best friend and you hear her heels tap the floors all the way to the front door of your apartment.

And even though you were feeling much better than you were this morning, now that the apartment is quiet and it's just you, you feel that weight on you again.

But you're determined not to go down the break up hole, you and Chris have already split twice, and this time was going to truly be the last time.

You guys are just moving in opposite directions, he's busy and so are you. And he gets so bothered when he can't see you.

That night you told him you wanted to see other people, he had asked you to move in with him. But right now? Thinking about the night with him again, that's all you could ever want.

But you're too scared to call him, and tell him you were wrong. Maybe he's already seeing other people, going through with what you told him to do.

And that would crush you.

You put on a movie to watch, while you think about what to whip up for dinner. Maybe pasta, a fresh hot bowl of pasta always cheers you up. Snuggling in your bed, the movie starts and you try to focus on the dialogue.
