I See The Light (Chris Evans AU Fanfiction)

Chapter 6

"Where's our little brother!" Carly smiled as she opened the door to Chris' office.

The noise got his attention and he looked up to see both of his sisters walking into his office. He took his thick framed glasses off, leaving them on the desk and walked around to hug each of them tight and kiss them on the cheek.

"What are you two doing here?" He was curious, but so happy to see his sisters.

"We just dropped your niece off at her gymnastics class that's just down the road so we decided to stop in and see you since it's your lunch break," Claire, the middle child, told him.

"I'm glad you guys stopped in," Chris sat down in his chair while the sisters plopped down in the chairs and scooted them toward the desk.

"So how has work been, what are you working on now?" Claire wondered as she looked at his desk covered in papers.

Chris's blue eyes scanned over all of them and thought about where he should start. Right as he began to open his mouth, Carly stopped him and picked up a photo that was laying on top of some of the papers, "Um what in the world is this?"

He looked over and saw that she was looking at a picture of him and Allie. It was taken a few days ago at a party Disney had at the animation studio complete with a photobooth that Allie had insisted they do together. They just had gotten the pictures back and Allie had left it on his desk before she had gone on her lunch break with Kara.

"That's my co-worker who I've been working on character designs with for the past month and a half," Chris explained.

"She's so adorable!" Carly exclaimed and then Claire quickly added in, "You two look like more than co-workers."

"Well..." Chris trailed off, his flushing cheeks giving him away.

The sisters eyes grew wide before they simultaneously asked, "Is she your girlfriend?"

"What? No," He shook his head, making them both disappointed. He ran a hand through his brown hair before confiding in them, "I really like her though... a lot."

Both of the sisters were shocked to hear that admission from their little brother. Chris had always been shy especially around women. As bad as he was when a girl hit on him, he was even worse when it came to asking a girl out. Neither of them could even remember the last time he was on a date so the fact that he was openly admitting that he liked someone, they both knew he must really be into her.

"Alright, tell us everything," Carly demanded.

They watched as Chris got a bashful smile on his face and then told them, "Her name is Allie and she's just... amazing. She's really outgoing and friendly, everyone loves her. She's really sweet too and I feel like I've known her forever. I can't even explain it but it's impossible not to be under her charm."

Carly smiled warmly while she reached across the desk to hold her little brother's hand and told him, "She sounds like a really special girl Chris."

"She is," He confidently told them.

Carly and Claire both had always been protective of their brother. He was a shy and kind hearted man but also was incredibly attractive and they had always been afraid someone would want him just for his looks and not for the wonderful person he was. In high school and college, they to take it upon themselves to scare off a few girls but after that, Chris didn't really date very much so it had taken care of itself. They both knew though that Chris was a smart man and they had never heard him talk about a girl the way he did about Allie so the instantly knew she must be special to him.
