Collection of One Shots

Its Always Been You

Prompt: Start and end with the same line - Line "i never stood a chance, Did i?" 

"I never stood a chance, Did i?" You wondered as the tears that had built up in your eyes finally spilled down your cheek as you looked at him "why did you lead me on then?" You wondered and shoved the man in front of you the man that you had spent the last few months going on date after date for him to just for him to tell you that you were not the one and he was actually already engaged to someone else.

You did what any one would do you went to your best friend. No contact. You showed up at the door and knocked on the door, as it swung open you head a dog barking. You saw the tall man standing there opening his arms to you as he saw you were upset

"i don't know why I try" you said to him as you feel his arms pull you in and your head rests in his chest as he rubs your back softly pulling you into the house softly so he can close the door before his dog gets out

"you try because you have a big heart, even for that asshole, who does not deserve you" He answered back as he kissed the top of your head softly, in a comforting manner, you didn't think anything of it

"no its exactly what I deserve" you said back to him "if you excuse me I am going to go actual dead man float in your pool" you said as you pulled your phone out of your pocket set it on the table as you walked by and belly flopped into the pool.

His dog jumped in after you and stopped you from doing whatever you were doing. You laugh as you float in his pool "dodger stop!!" You laugh and try and swim away from the dog as you felt another splash behind you "Chris Make him stop, he might actually drown me" you said as you couldn't really touch where you decided to jump in fully clothed into the pool

He saw over to you and supported you as dodger gave you one more lick and got himself out of the pool "it doesn't help that you are fully clothed in the pool, that gives you a good 10 pounds more" he said as you splashed him

"Evans i swear" you said back to him as you reached and pulled off your shirt just leaving you in a bralette which is basically like a bikini top anyways. And tossed it to the side of the pool, followed by your jeans and then swam away from him.

He shook his head and didn't follow, as the two of you swam for awhile before you pulled yourself out of the water. "can I uh borrow those sweatpants that are now too small for you since you became the hulk?" You wondered as you looked at your best friend who basically was beefing up for his next movie

"they still fit, what are you talking about?" He said as he grabbed himself a towel and threw one at you, and you wrapped it around yourself

"you mean the ones that, sit right here on your hip bone, that if you bend over you could rip the ass out in them.." You countered back and raised an eyebrow and walked into his room to find them yourself. Dodger happily followed as you were one of his favorite people.

You didn't mind changing infant of Chris, as the two of you grew up close, in locker rooms, dressing rooms for plays, you met in college in new York as you both auditioned for the same show and kinda just hit it off. You went over to his dresser and dug in his drawer and pulled them out "you mean these that you have had since college" you said as you slide off your panties and slide his sweatpants on. And then went and grabbed one of his t-shirts and turned so your back was facing him and unclipped the bra and pulled his shirt on. When you turned around you saw he was in the middle of changing himself. You couldn't help but look him up and down because let's be honest tho it was just friendship, you had to admit that he kept it tight.

Chris shook his head at you as he walked away. You followed and went and laid on his couch "do you still have that Mint chip?" You wondered as this wasn't the first time you ended up on his couch after you and Matt, ended things cause he cheated and you always forgave him, cause you thought its what you deserve

"if I give it to you, do you promise to share?" He wondered grabbing it out of the freezer

You shook your head "no, what have you not learned this entire friendship is soul based on your able ness to not take the ice cream when I'm heart broken" you said and took it from him when he brought it over

"is this the last time?" He wondered looking at you. As you had a spoonful of ice cream in your mouth as you looked at him with your big eyes, wet hair. You shrugged looking at him as you were not sure, your head was telling you yes, but your heart wanted to try one more time.

"im not sure" you responded with a mouth full of ice cream. And sighed "yes? I need it to be, but we moved in together, and where am I suppose to stay? I can't move home. God I can't do that' you said back to him

"well ill be in Atlanta for the next couple months, why don't you stay here, and keep dodger company, and ill be home and come visit, well you work getting back on your feet?" He offered you. You knew this is what you needed, you didn't have an excuse to go running back to him now so all you did was nod

"okay, but you have to come with me to get all of my stuff" you asked him, and he knew what that meant, and he didn't hesitate to respond yes. You sigh as the two of you sat on his couch with dodger in between the both of you, watching Netflix, laughing at one of his old movies 'playing in cool' mostly at the part where he dressed like a girl. It was your favorite form of blackmail, you made him watch it every time you got your heart broken. He was your best friend and did everything you wanted him to do without hesitation.

Chris left town to work on one of the new avenger movies, or solo movie you we're not entirely sure. You and dodger held down the fort. You held your ground, no matter when Matt tried to come crawling back to you, you said no, you kept saying no. You needed to get away, before you gave in. so you got yourself a ticket to see your best friend work on one of the biggest movies of the summer, a short flight later you knocked on his hotel room, but he was not there, instead his assistant answered and let you in, and told you to make yourself comfortable. He would be on set late that night.

You walked around his suite, seeing the giant tub. You smile as you finish your tour. You wanted to take full advantage of that tub, it was like the one you always wanted and tried to get Chris to get when he remodeled but he got one with jets and was lame, nothing like the old fashion claw foot tubs. You put your hair in a messy bun and turned on the hot water, and found some bubbles and let that stu as you turned on your favorite album and grabbed the book he was reading as you didn't bring your own, and climbed into the tub and just relaxed.

About an hour later you heard the Hotel room door open and shut "y/n" he yelled like he was letting you know he was home

"In the bathroom" you said back as you folded the page of his book you were on and turned to look at him walking though the door as he laughed

"i knew I would find you in that thing" Chris smiled "come on we are going out with the cast, since off, and get dressed, you and I are going to have fun" he said to you "seriously, Mackie wants to meet you" He said mentioning one of the newest cast members

"oh my god okay, grab my dress out of my bag and ill jump in the shower" You said handing him the book "also I need to borrow that when you get home" you said as he left "DON"T LOOSE MY PAGE" you said letting the water out of the tub and went and rinsed off in the shower before wrapping a towel around your waist and walked out to the living area where he pulled out the dress you asked for, you changed and went into the bathroom to put your face on and simple curl your hair.

You heard a knock on the door as Chris answered it, and heard two men walk in, you peak your head out the door and went running over to Sebastian "Stannn!" You said giving him a hug, it has been a second since you had seen him in a few years. Sebastian smiled and hugged you back and introduced you to Anthony the newest member of the Capitan America cast.

"alright are you boys ready to go out?" You smirked and slide on your heals becoming as tall as Chris was, you linked your arms with his as the four of you walked out of the hotel room and walked to the nearest bar. You went to our go to drink and the boys drank beer.

A few drinks later, you were on the dance floor with Chris swaying to a slow song, you were a little more drunk than you normally were at that point, Anthony was not messing around with the shots. "I love you, you know that?" you wondered as you looked up at Chris

He nodded "i know, I don't know where my life would be with out your crazy self" He said honestly with a slight grin as he spun you. You spun then quickly steadied yourself as you put your hands on his chest and your forehead into his shoulder, as his arms went around your waist "y/n" he paused for a second before he kept talking "you know its always been you right?" He wondered.

YOu pulled your head away just slightly and looked at him "always been me?" You wondered back, I mean you loved chris, but you didn't believe that you deserve to loved like this man could love you.

"I love you, I mean like love you, its always been you ive dreamed about spending my future with, and I know you don[t think you deserve to be happy for whatever reason, and I am right here to tell you that you are wrong. You deserve the damn world. And to be swept off your feet, in the right way" he said as he moved one of his hands to your cheek, and leaned down connecting the two of your together. His lips connected to yours.

You never felt that sort of connection with anyone, in one simple kiss. You slowly pulled away from him as you looked up into his baby blue eyes as he looked in yours. You could swear you two were the only ones left in the bar. You thought this is what those movies were talking about "Chris" you said softly as you could feel his breath as Anthony walked up bringing you another shot "i can't sorry" you said to Anthony before letting go of Chris and walking out of the bar. You needed a breath.

Chris followed you out "y/n" he said softly as you turned to look at him your fingers linger on your lips as you still felt his against yours. You walked back over to him and crashed your lips back to his. The two of you end up back up in his hotel room.

The two of you woke up at the sound of Chris Alarm, you rolled over and saw him slowly starting to wake up, you bite your lip your lip as you just watched him come around " I shouldn't have fought it for so long" you sighed as he sat up slightly and gave you a peck on the lips before reaching over and turning off his alarm. "i never stood a chance did I?" You wondered as he was always the one you were meant to be with. It just took you long enough to figure it out.
