Destroyer - Chris Evans

Iris and Chris had been best friends for a long time. Now he was coming home after wrapping up a movie in Brazil. Things were different this time around. There was so much unspoken between the two of them, things neither of them dared to bring to light. As new problems were in the wind, old ones were stepping out of the shadows to haunt them.

Iris wasn't typically like this around him. Why couldn't she keep herself together? It had to be because of how long it had been since she'd been with anyone. That had to be it. It couldn't be anything else. Could there? Chris was her best friend. That was all he'd ever been and all he'd ever be to her. She wouldn't dare to cross that line. Not even when their vibes seemed to change and it felt as if the very air around her transformed in his presence. She was floating and the current was drifting her to him. Would she make it to shore or would she be swept under?

Chris had been pushing away his feelings for a long time now, distancing himself from her. The literal distance between them had done him good as well. Yet everything came cracking down once she leapt into his arms. Iris was undoubtedly one of the most important people in his life. His friendship with her was extraordinary. He wouldn't risk that for anything in the world. He would just ruin everything. Destroy their friendship. He would destroy her. He could never do that to her. Not after everything he'd put her through. Not after everything she'd been through. But how was he going to keep away, when she was a magnet pulling him close? Could he withstand such forces?
