Nervous: Another Interracial Chris Evans Love Story

Chapter 2

Chapter 2

Chris and Lena pulled up to Marylea's house. Despite being incredibly nervous about lunch with Chris, Lena was actually able to relax and let her guard down.

"Sorry to keep you out late. But did you at least have a good time?"

"Honestly, yes. It's been a while since I've been able to have an adult conversation without worry about little ears listening or having to stop every so often to make sure she is ok."

"Well, I'm glad to give you a little break. I can't imagine it's easy doing it all alone."

Chris could only imagine all the stuff she has had to deal with on her own. It probably doesn't help with having anxiety. But if she is able to have a good time maybe it will help easy her.

"It's not all that bad but I wouldn't change the feeling for anything in the world. She is a good baby."

"That's good to hear. Can't wait to meet her." He replies. He doesn't want to let her go but knows she spent most of her day on a plane and should have some bonding time with her bestie. "So tomorrow what are you doing?"

"Probably sleep. Why?"

"Well if Marylea is working all day. I can keep you company and do some cheesy sight seeing."

Lena's eyes grow slightly larger, she wasn't expecting that. "Ummm. Sure."

"I mean you don't have to if you don't want to just figured we could continue to hang out and I have nothing on my schedule. It's kind of boring to be home alone all day."

Hearing his reason Lena slightly regrets her reply to an innocent question. "No, that sounds like a good idea. Just nothing too early. I have a feeling Marylea will wanna do some drinking so yeah. Might be slightly hungover."

"Gotcha. Are you a party girl?"

"Maybe back in the day. Once I got married and had Eevee, that feeling kind of went away. You know?"

"Understandable. We all have those party animal moments right?"

"Exactly."

The pair grew quiet thinking about how they both use to party hard but have grown up and stopped acting like children.

"Can I have your phone to put my number in?" Lena smiles and hands her phone over to Chris. "So I'll call or text around 10 ok?"

"Awesome sauce." Without thinking Lena leans over gives Chris a quick hug and small peck on the cheek and runs inside before he could open the door for her. "Bye" she yells from the front door before walking inside.

What a woman, he thinks as he pulls off.

"Well, well, well, look who finally decides to come home?" Marylea says as she gets up from the couch. "Were you guys making out?"

"Funny but no. We just had lunch at a small restaurant and talked. A lot."

"Talked? That's it. You went out on a date with Chris Evans and all you did was talk?"

Lena gives Marylea a look. "Yes. Just talking. Sorry that I didn't bang him on the first date."

"Just kidding. But it's good to know you had a nice time." Marylea replies as she opens up a bottle of wine. "So do you like him or like him like him?"

"He's a nice guy."

"You are avoiding the question." Marylea hands Lena a glass of wine. "I'll ask again when you are tipsy. I mean he isn't my type but I'm not dead. He's gorgeous."
