Nervous: Another Interracial Chris Evans Love Story

Chapter 1

Evangeline "Lena" nervously shakes her leg and tries to let the music soothe her mind and soul. Mentally she is thinking of how much people will be upset if she just decides to trade in her return ticket sooner to be closer with her daughter. Her parents and his parents both agreed she needed a break and some "me time" but she wasn't too sure if this was a smart idea. She realizes her daughter is young and won't fully remember her being gone for a week but guilt still plagues her. She leans her head against the window and thinks of him.

Thinking of all the good things he is missing, not by choice but rather fate's choice. 300 days since he was taken from her in a tragic car accident. She can still remember the officers at her door looking sad and not sure what to tell her. A wave of sadness washed over her as she felt the sadness that has slightly controlled her life the last 300 days. Some days were better than others but a day like today where she is flying to see her best friend Marylea in California with out her precious Eevee makes her a little bit more on edge and more time to let her mind wander to different places and topics.

Usually having the playful but shy 1 year old makes her mind focus on her instead of who isn't with her anymore. She is wondering if this week will help her or make her regret ever coming out. It's only a week she thinks to herself. A small part of her thinks that she needs a little time away to completely heal but the rest of her feels guilty for letting her family watch her daughter. Her greatest joy lately in life has been being a mom. She thought being a wife was an amazing thing but since being a mom she has felt like her life was complete. She leans her head back as the plane endures some turbulence, I pray this plane makes it, Eevee can't lose another parent. With those final thoughts she drifted into a well deserved nap.

"No, no, no" Jeff yells as he frustratedly throws the next headshot back in the stack of the others "These girls aren't what we needing for his image! Does anyone ever listen to me?" As he says this he looks around at a few people to have them acknowledge him and his question. He sees yet another text from his client Chris going unanswered since he already knows what Chris is going to ask him.

"Maybe he could just not go because of a 'medical problem'" he heard someone say.

"Absolutely not! This man is Captain America! He has great health and it really great with the press AND his fans. There is no way he is going to miss this premeire."

"Well, what exactly is he wanting?" Marylea asks as she quietly places his drink order in front of him. She was still new to California and was looking for better work than being a runner. She wanted to write but she knew she had to first pay her dues. So until they thought she was ready to write, she'd be getting coffee.

For the first time in a long time he felt hopeless. He knew Chris never had any crazy demands, so he was trying hard to please him. It is not that often you get an actor who isn't a complete douche bag, acts crazy in public, or hasn't made a bunch of unattainable goals. Jeff runs this hands through his bleached blonde hair and grabs his coffee and looks at his new assistant. She hasn't been there long but he knows she always got his coffee right and she was always quiet. Maybe the mouse is finally showing that she is more than a coffee runner. "He wants a real woman. Not a model, an actress, or anything like that. He wants to take a person to the charity event and movie premiere who makes him happy. Someone who looks like they go together."

"You know he is our client and we will do most everything for him but, we aren't a dating site." Anna states flatly as she takes a sip of her water.

"Not the point. Happy people make for better press. The guy wants to go out a few times with someone who isn't completely star struck." Jeff knows what would make his client happy, he just has to find it.
