Chance ~ Chris Evans

9. Birthday

The last few weeks I had grown closer to Chris, so did my feelings. I developed romantic feelings towards the actor, not that I wanted though. Lizzie and Sebby knew about my feelings because I was closest to them, I knew Chris didn't feel the same because he always made sure he told me how much he cared for me as his best friend. Sebastian claimed that he liked me too, although I still thought he didn't.

Chris and I slept either at my or his place, in the beginning we kept making excuses so we could sleep together but we stopped making excuses a week ago, we both knew we were sleeping together, no matter how lame the excuse was.

But today was my birthday, not that it mattered though, no one knew about it anyway. I wasn't really excited, my birthday is just another day. I woke up at Chris', alone in bed. Chris was showering so I decided to get dressed and make breakfast. I made some eggs with bacon, I was just placing everything on the table as Chris stepped out of the bathroom.

"It smells amazing, what did you make?" Chris asked me as he sat down.

"Eggs with bacon," I told him smiling, I sat down as well. We both ate in silence, enjoying the company. After our meal I got ready and we went to work.

The day went by like every other day, no one mentioned my birthday, until it was almost time to go.

"Guys! Can we all get together for a moment?" Sebastian asked everyone, I walked towards the now forming group.

"Normally we wouldn't ask you this late but we were thinking of a night out," Lizzie continued.

"But it's the birthday of someone of our crew, Tilly turns 21 today!" Lizzie yelled into the group, everyone cheered and congratulated me before Sebastian continued there little speech.

"I know a club not so far from here, we could eat something before we go there?" Sebby asked us. Chris immediately looked over at me, silently asking if I wanted to go, I smiled and shrugged my shoulders. Chris told Sebby we were coming, although I hoped for a quiet night I was quite excited for this. Eventually everyone joined us as we went for dinner.

Before we ordered our food I stayed outside for a smoke as Lizzie kept me company. We started talking about little things but after a few minutes the conversation went elsewhere.

"So, how are things between you and Chris huh?" Lizzie asked me as she wiggled her eyebrows. I giggled because it really looked ridiculous.

"Good, I guess, why?" I asked her, not knowing where she wanted to go with the conversation.

"It's so obvious," Lizzie told me, I still didn't know what he was talking about.

"Chris? And you? Your feelings?" Lizzie tried to make it clear to me, but I still didn't know what she was talking about. Well I know what she was talking about but I didn't know how she knew.

"My feelings? What feelings?" I asked her, trying to make her believe that I didn't like Chris. I, myself, was still trying to figure out what I felt for the man.

"Don't be ridiculous, we all know about you and Chris!" Lizzie laughed, I took a drag, thinking.

"What about me and Chris? We are friends!" I exclaimed when Lizzie finally had stopped laughing.

"Yeah, sure!" Lizzie started laughing again. We both went inside when I had put my cigarette out on the street. Lizzie had eyed me all night suspiciously, she did so too with Chris. Except for Lizzie, dinner went smoothly. We had fun, some of the actors were already a bit tipsy, including myself and Chris.

As everyone walked to the club I was having fun in a tipsy way. I was nudging Chris' side while he was trying to get a hold of me. I was sure we looked like little kids, but we didn't mind at all.

When we arrived at the club I immediately went to get a drink, wodka with red-bull to be exact. Everyone started splitting up, Lizzie, Scarlett and a few others started walking towards the dance floor while the others stayed behind to sit down or to stand up and drink something. I followed the women to the dance floor as I started dancing to some hip-hop.

The night went on, the press started noticing us, not that we minded, we kept doing the same things as before. We drank several drinks, danced and had a lot of fun until suddenly the music changed into some more romantic, sexy music.

Back in Belgium I used to go clubbing in Antwerp, where they only played music like this so I was kind of used to it. I immediately changed my way of dancing in a sexy way, a lot of hip shaking and stuff. Not soon after the music changed a guy came behind me and started dancing with me, since I wasn't seeing anyone I didn't see the bad in it. I wasn't even dancing with the unknown guy for more than 1 minute when Chris came up to me and sent the guy away.
