Just one look ~ a Chris Evans fanfiction

Chapter 17

Mel's p.o.v.

"Can I play with it?" Dylan asked while he was already patting the dog.

"Dylan, be careful. We don't know if he's dangerous." I told him. To be honest he didn't look dangerous but you never know. The dog walked over to me and started licking my face. Ok, he isn't dangerous. He's just a cutie!

"Can I keep him?" Dylan asked me with big eyes.

"No Dylan, this dog belongs to someone. You can't just keep something you find because you like it, we need to find its owner. He or she is probably worried." I said and watched how his smile dropped a little. I took a look at the dog's collar and saw a little plate attached to it. On it stood a name: 'Dodger'.

"So your Dodger." I said while scratching behind his ear, he liked it. "Let's find your owner." I looked at the backside of the little plate and found, like I expected, a phone number. "I'm going to call the owner Dylan. Can you keep an eye on Dodger for me?"

"Ok" he said happily. He felt like it was a very important job.

When I putted the number in my phone I realized it was already a contact of me, it was Chris. Wait! Did I just found Chris Evans his dog. How big are the chances?
Before I got the chance to press the call button I heard a familiar voice behind me.

"There you are! You know how worried I was?" Yeah, that was definitely Chris.
I turned around and saw Chris kneeling while patting Dodger. "I'm so sorry for any trouble he may have caused." Chris said, still not looking up from Dodger.

"It was no problem Chris." I said while smiling because he still hadn't noticed that it's me. Or maybe he did notice me and just acted like he didn't because I'm that stupid girl he keeps encountering. Stop that way of thinking Mel!

"Mel?" He looked really confused when he looked up at me but quickly changed his expression into he's heartbreaking smile. "How big are the chances?"

Before I could answer I heard Dylan gasp. Oh no! I quickly ran towards him and put a hand before his mouth. We don't want to create a scene here.

"Ok sweetie, keep calm. This is indeed who you think he his but we don't want to get the attention of the whole park, do we?" Dylan shook his head. I let out the breath I didn't know I was holding and released Dylan from my grip.

Before I knew it, Dylan started hugging Chris' leg. Chris looked up confused at me.

"He's a big fan." I explained him.

"He... Is he your...son?" Chris asked.

I started laughing but stopped when I saw his serious face. "No, he's not my son. He's my brother's." I told him and saw his face turn again in a smile.

"I just thought... Just forget it." Chris said. He kneeled down so he was somewhat on Dylan's height. "And what's your name?" He asked Dylan.

"I'm Dylan." He answered shyly.

"It's nice to meet you Dylan." Chris said.

Chris' p.o.v.

How stupid Chris, asking if it's her son! Way to make an impression on her.

"You know aunt Mel?" Dylan asked me.

"Yeah" I looked up at Mel. "We're friends." How I wished I could say something else.

"Really?" Dylan asked with wide eyes looking at Mel.

"Yeah." Mel said with a smile and looked at me. She looks even more beautiful if she smiles. I just wanted to kiss her in that moment. Chris what are you thinking?!

"Wow" Dylan said. I just chuckled, it's always fun to see how children react.

"Dylan, I think it's time for us to go and grab some lunch." Mel said. An idea popping in my head. But Dylan beat me by the second.

"Can Chris join us?" He used my name like he knows me for years. It's different but I like it. Mostly children always call me cap.

"Uhhhh...I don't know. Only if Chris wants to join us." Mel said.

I smiled. "Of course I want to join!"

Dylan started hugging me again. He's so cute. Yeah, looks like I'm joining for lunch.

"So, you never told me you had a brother."

"Well you never asked me." Mel replied.

"True. So is he older, younger?" I asked Mel.

"Older. 6 years to be exactly." Mel answered. We talked while we eat. I got to know more about her brother and how much he's working. When we talked I couldn't help but notice how Dodger was lying at Mel's feet. He was already very comfortable around her. That means something, doesn't it?

"You enjoyed lunch with Chris?" Mel asked Dylan when we exited.

"Yeah! It was awesome!" He answered happily with a big smile on his face. I just couldn't help but smile at him, he's just a ray of sunshine.

"It's time to go home Dylan. We don't want your daddy to get worried." When Mel said that his smiled dropped a bit.

"Maybe I can walk home with you guys!" I told them with a smile and saw Dylan smile instantly.

"Yes! Please aunt Mel! Can Chris come with us?" He looked with puppy eyes at his aunt. Nobody can say no to those eyes.

Mel smiled at Dylan. "Ok, Chris can come." She could barely finish the sentence or Dylan grabbed my hand and pulled me along. Mel took over Dodger from me and we walked towards, what I assume is Dylan's house.

"You didn't have to do this for him, you know." Mel whispered in my ear. I was startled for a second because she was so close to my face. I turned my head and we were only inches apart from each other. Luckily she backed off otherwise I would have kissed right there. Oh Chris this is getting worse.

"Who said I did it for him?" I replied and saw how she started blushing. We walked further in complete silence, maybe I was going to far?

"Daddy!" Dylan yelled when we entered the house. He sprinted towards the kitchen and we followed him.

"Hey buddy! How was today? You had fun?" His father asked.

"Yeah! It was so much fun with Chris and Dodger!" His father looked rather confused but a small smile crept on his face when he looked at me. He stood up and walked towards me.

"So your Chris. Nice to meet in real life instead of seeing you on tv." I shook his hand.
Before I could answer he talked again. "So you're Mel's boyf...." Mel cut him off.

"Friend! Just a friend Harry!" His smile grew even bigger when she said that.

Mel sighed and turned her attention to me. "I must admit it was fun today and you really made Dylan's wish come true."

"I had lots of fun today, he's just a great child." Ok Chris this is the moment, ask her!
"Uhh,...Mel. Is was wondering.... If you wanted to join me tonight for dinner?" You did it Chris, it's to late to change your mind now.

"I...I don't k..." Mel started but was cut off by her brother.

"She would love too!" Harry said. I looked back at Mel.

"Yeah, I would love to join you for dinner tonight." She smiled which made me smile even harder.

"Ok, can you text me your address so I can pick you up around 8. Sounds good?" I asked her.

"Yeah, sounds good."

"Ok. See you tonight."

"Tonight."

Harry's p.o.v.

I could stop smiling when I saw them together. They were so cute, like Jason told me.

Me:
You have a go for tonight!

Jason:
YES!
