Just one look ~ a Chris Evans fanfiction

Chapter 25

Seb's p.o.v.

Sunday morning

"Scarlett, can you remind me why we had to meet this early in the morning?" Anthony asked.

"I thought Scarlett explained that yesterday. Pay attention Anthony!" Aaron said.

"I'm paying attention, it's just my brain doesn't work properly this early." Anthony replied. I chuckled.

"Does it ever work properly?" I commented.

"Guys, don't start an other fight." Hayley said from the kitchen, she was making breakfast together with Jeremy. The rest of us were all sitting around Jeremy's table, yes we were at his house because Scarlett thought that was a good idea. Not that I'm complaining or anything.

"Pancakes are ready!" Jeremy yelled at us.

"Finally!" Robert said and put his phone back in his pocket.

When everyone was seated and eating Scarlett started the talking.

"Ok everyone, let's get started. Mark, you begin." She said.

"Ok. Like everyone knows, we are leaving tonight so this means Chris and Mel won't be able to see each other." Mark started.

"Can't we take Mel with us? She'll probably fit in Chris' suitcase." Anthony said. We just ignored him and Mark continued.

"So know comes the question: how are we going to keep this relationship alive?"

"Ok guys can I just say something?" Aaron asked.

"Yeah, go ahead." Jeremy said with his mouth full of pancake.

"Can't Chris and Mel work this out. Why do we always interfere?" Aaron said.

Robert shook his head. "No, we need to help them. I know Chris longer than you Aaron and believe me, he needs our help."

"So, what's the plan?" I asked them and took an other bite from my pancake. They were delicious by the way.

"Simple, keeping the relationship alive." Scarlett said.

"Ok, now I'm really confused. Mark just asked how we keep this relationship alive and your answer too this is to keep the relationship alive." I said. "How does that work?" I asked them.

"You'll see. Scarlett, Mark and I are working on our master plan." Robert said.

"So why are we here? Just for those delicious pancakes?" Aaron questioned.

"Thanks Aaron." Hayley said.

"No, everyone gets a task." Robert said smiling. "And you are starting today Bucky Bear."

"What? Starting today?" I questioned.

"Yes." Scarlett and Mark said together. "Together with Jeremy." Mark added.

I sighed. "You guys are unbelievable." I mumbled.

"Yeah, unbelievably awesome!" Robert replied.

"So what do I need to do?" I asked them.

"Listen very carefully..."

"Don't you need to pack your things?" Chris asked from his closet. I sat on his bed playing casually with my phone.

"Already done, I did it during the week." I answered him. Quickly texting Jeremy.

Me:
Chris is in the closet

Jeremy:
Ok
Keep him busy

"You had time to do that? I thought you were occupied with bothering me." He said.

"That wasn't bothering Chris, it's called helping."

"You know Seb, if you ever get a girl I'll be doing the same."

"I won't expect any less." I told him and he laughed. Just keep him busy Seb...

Jeremy's p.o.v.

Why do I always get the 'fun' tasks? 'Renner, you climb from your garden into Chris' and sneak into his house, easily done ,Robert said'. I sighed, why do I always agree? I could've enjoyed some time on my couch, maybe watching a movie or something but no I had to do this.

I'm seriously considering on hanging a rope from Chris' garden into mine, it would make this much easier. He doesn't have to know it and If he finds out I'll just play my innocent self.

I sneaked around in Chris' garden and watched his bedroom window closely. He's in there with Seb. After waving at Seb I made my way to his kitchen. The window there is always unlocked. I looked around in the kitchen, making sure there's nobody. I even checked the fridge for suspicious activity, you never know...

I didn't find anything except for the chicken leftovers which weren't that bad after I examined them closely, can't work on an empty stomach.

Ok Jeremy, time to get this job done...

Seb'sp.o.v.

"So what are you and Mel now exactly?" I asked Chris, it was the first question that popped into my head. He had finally finished packing his stuff and wanted to leave his room but I hadn't received a text from Jeremy that the coast was clear.

Chris sighed. "Honestly, I don't know. I know for sure that I love her."

"So what's the problem then?" I asked.

"I don't if she feels the same way." Chris confessed. I didn't know how to reply to this.

"Chris..."

I felt my phone vibrate and saw I had a text from Jeremy.

Jeremy:
Mission accomplished
If Chris asks about some chicken leftovers
I haven't seen them

I looked back at Chris who was still looking at me, expecting an answer from me.

"Chris, I may not know Mel that well but from what I've heard she has feelings for you too." I saw how his eyes sparkle and a small smile crept on his face. Soon his face dropped and he looked confused.

"How do you mean, 'from what I've heard'?" He asked.

"Uuuhhhh,... are you hungry? Maybe we should eat something?" Chris watched me with a stern look.

"You're lucky I'm hungry so I'll drop this." He turned around and walked out of his bedroom, probably towards the kitchen.

I sighed, Chris already knows a lot about our 'business' but he doesn't need to know everything.

When I walked into the kitchen I saw Chris with his head in the fridge. "Seb, you took anything from my fridge when you were here?" Chris asked.

"No, why?"

"I had some chicken leftovers but they disappeared..." Chris stated.

"Jeremy..." I mumbled under my breath.

"You said anything?"

"No, nothing." I think I'm going to kill Jeremy one day.
