Today started just like every other day, woken up by your Siberian husky, named Willow. She was already 7 years old by now, but she had the energy of 5 huskies combined, which you absolutely loved about her. ''Good morning Willow!'' you say when she jumps onto your bed looking for some snuggles and belly scratches, which honestly was your favorite way to wake up every morning. You had given up on dating a few years back, but when you started feeling lonely you decided to adopt a dog. Not just for the love they would give you, but also to get some more exercise in, and that worked out well. She always needs long walks or runs before she's tired, and you enjoy exploring the city with her.

''Shall we go for a run this morning?'' you asked her and her ears perked up, granting you a little howl as a response. She always enjoyed running with you, keeping the same pace as you. You never taught her to do it, but she was just considerate like that. Sure, she could be a brat of the highest degree if she wanted to, but on your walks and runs she would be an absolute delight. Often times people come up to the two of you to see if they can pet her and since she is a little bit of an attention seeker, she never minds and always accepts pets and cuddles from people. ''Okay, let's get up big girl. Let's have some breakfast first and then I'll take you for a run,'' you say with a smile when you get up, picking up an oversized shirt from the floor.

Despite the fact that you lived alone, you were always a little afraid someone might barge in and you didn't appreciate that. Even though you have your very own guard dog now - oh, who are we kidding, she would help a burglar out by bringing stuff outside for them - you still didn't feel comfortable walking around in just your underwear. Willow ran ahead of you into the kitchen, already looking forward to breakfast today. You prefer feeding her raw food, and you already prepared a big batch of it last week to last you throughout the next few weeks, so all you have to do is get it out of the fridge and prepare it for her. ''Are you ready, Willow?'' you looked at her and put her slow feeder bowl in front of her, while she patiently waits for your command. ''Enjoy!'' you say and he happily starts eating while you start preparing your own breakfast and a smoothie for when you come back from your run.

You turn on some music to get your morning started and get some strawberries as well as all the other things you'll need for your smoothie out of the fridge. You put it in the blender and let that run for a little bit before getting some slices of bread, eggs, and ham and cheese ready. You were really craving toast with eggs, ham, and cheese for a while so you decided to give into it this time, it would be a perfect start before your run anyways. You always took a few snacks and some water with you on your run, but going on an empty stomach wasn't an option. When the smoothie is done you put it in your usual smoothie cup and place it in the fridge for when you come back, and then you sit down at your kitchen island to enjoy your breakfast. By the time you're done, Willow was patiently laying by the door until you were ready to go. All you needed to do was change, grab some stuff, and get her leash.

It appeared to be a lovely day outside, so you opted for a pair of neon green running shorts, a black sports bra, and a matching neon green loose top over that. You put on a pair of black running shoes and your hair in a ponytail. Next up you put some stuff in the small backpack you always take with you while running, and the leash you can put around your waist when running with Willow. ''Are you ready to go, baby? Are you ready to for a run today?'' you ask and she immediately jumps up, excited to go for a run with you. You grab your headphones and pair them with your phone, you pull up your running playlist and walk out the door. ''Good morning, Mrs. Jones!'' you say when you see your elderly neighbor in the hallway. ''Good morning Y/N, good morning Willow!'' she says and she comes over to give Willow some love. ''Have a good run today, Y/N,'' she says before you enter the elevator.

You have been running for about an hour so far, and Willow is starting to get a little tired, just like you, so you decide to stop in a dog park so she can go ahead and get some extra energy out whilst you gather yourself a bit on a bench. ''I'm sorry, is this seat taken?'' you hear a deep voice next to you saying, and you shake your head, saying, ''No, not at all! Please join me,'' with a big smile and a cheery voice. ''Thank you,'' he says and he sits down with a bit of a sigh. ''I've never seen you around here, are you new?'' he asked, and you explain that you live in a different part of Boston, but you just enjoy exploring the city when you're running with your dog. ''See the white and grey husky over there? She's mine, her name's Willow,'' you say and your eyes sparkle when you say it, she's your pride and joy. ''She's beautiful! It appears she's playing with my dog, his name's Dodger,'' he mentions.

''Oh, I am such an idiot, I forgot to introduce myself! I'm Chris, Chris Evans,'' and you can't help but smile at the fact that you've met the one and only Chris Evans. You have seen a few of the movies he's in, but you didn't let that phase you in the slightest. ''It's nice to meet you, Chris, I'm Y/N, Y/N Y/L/N,'' you extend your hand and he happily accepts it. ''Do you mind if I eat my apple real quick? I'm gonna need the sugars for my way back,'' you ask and he doesn't mind. He just starts talking about Dodger and how he rescued him, which warms your heart. ''I adopted Willow 3 years ago from a shelter actually! I think it is really important to also adopt older dogs, they usually get looked over in shelters and that breaks my heart...'' you say, Chris agreed with you.

You keep talking about other stuff that has both your interests too, and after about an hour you really have to go, so you excuse yourself and call Willow back over to you. You whistle on your fingers to get her attention and she stops dead in her tracks to turn around and come back to you. ''Oh wow, she's a great listener!'' Chris laughed and couldn't help but admire the way you handle Willow, with such care and love, it felt like his heart might explode. ''Do you and Willow want to come over for a playdate soon? I think the two of them would love that,'' he asked with a bit of a shy tone in his voice. ''Sounds good! Let me give you my number so we can see when we have the time, okay?'' you said and Chris gave you his phone so you could put your number in it. ''It was lovely meeting you Chris,'' you said before turning your music on again and waving one last time before continuing your run with Willow.

You ran for another hour and a half before you were finally back home, looking forward to a hot shower right about now. You give Willow a treat for being such a good girl, and you grab your smoothie out of the fridge, the cold soothing you from the inside out. When you finished it, you put your cup in the dishwasher and went to the bathroom, undressing in your bedroom and getting ready to wash away all the sweat you worked up during your run. You start singing along with the music you're playing and just when you're putting conditioner in your hair, you hear your phone go off. You look around your shower curtain just to see it was Chris who texted you.

Chris: Hi Y/N, it's Chris. It was really lovely to meet you earlier this morning. Seeing you and Willow really brightened up my day today. I was wondering if you'd still like to come by for that playdate?

Why would he think you wouldn't want to come over for that playdate anymore? You had a great time this morning meeting him, so you start thinking of things to text back while you wash the conditioner out of your hair. When you're dried off, you go looking for some comfy clothing to wear, since today you're working from home. You settle for a pair of black shorts and a simple white tank top, nothing too fancy but perfect for working outside on your balcony in this weather. You decide to let your hair loose today and wear your glasses, not being bothered to put in contact lenses. When you're settled outside with your laptop, your iced coffee, and Willow laying comfortably by your feet, you text Chris back.

Y/N: Hey, it was really nice to meet you too, I'm glad I could help to brighten your day! 🥰 And of course, we would love to come by for a playdate, I'll be off next week on Thursday. Would that work for you?

You don't have to wait long for your answer.

Chris: Thursday works for me too. Can't wait to see both of you again then.

Y/N: Same! Do you want me to bring something?

Chris: No, just yourself and Willow is plenty. 😉

You laugh at his response and put your phone away for now, you still need to get some work done after all. By the time 6 PM rolls around you've finished your work, and you start getting pretty hungry at this point. ''Are you hungry, too, Willow?'' you ask and she gets up to follow you to the kitchen, ready for her dinner too. Since you went on a long run today, you give her a little more food than usual, but she's happy to eat all of it without a problem. You warm up yesterday's leftovers from when you had your best friend over for Chinese food and wine. You sit down in your comfy chair again and put on a reality tv-show on your laptop to watch during dinner, and you watch 2 episodes before getting up to clean up the kitchen. When all that is done you make yourself a cup of tea and decide to text Chris, to see if he's perhaps available to video chat or something. He was, and the two of you talked for close to three hours before hanging up and going to sleep.

~ Day of the play date ~

Willow decided to sleep in a little for a change, and you didn't mind it at all. You set your alarm for 9:30 AM, you didn't have to go to Chris' until 1 PM anyway. This way you had plenty of time to get ready, walk Willow, and clean the apartment. You picked out your outfit yesterday because you were too excited and found the perfect one. It was another beautiful and sunny day, so you went for a long yellow polka dot sundress, your gladiator sandals, and your black purse to finish the look. Your hair was put in two Dutch braids and was hanging loose behind your back. All you needed now was your sunglasses and Willow, before getting the bottle of white wine you got as a thank you, despite Chris telling you that you didn't need to bring anything besides yourself and Willow. You never liked to show up empty-handed.

''Shall we go to Chris' house, Willow?'' you ask her excitedly and she jumps up, bolting to the door so you can put on her leash. ''Easy there soldier, we're not gone yet!'' you laugh and you get her leash, when she's clipped in you grab your keys, phone, purse, and the wine and you walk out the door. When you're in the parking garage you're walking towards your car and Willow is so excited she almost pulls you over. ''Willow, easy!'' you say and she listens, so you don't fall on the ground. You get to your car and open the backdoor of your trusty Jeep, it has gotten you from A to B for close to ten years now, and you still love driving it every time you get a chance. Willow jumps in the back and settles on the blankets, so you walk to the driver's side of your car and get in. You plug in your phone so you can use it for both music and navigation, guiding you to Chris' house without a problem.

After a short 20-minute drive you turn into his driveway, and Willow is excited to see you have arrived. ''We're here, baby girl,'' you say before getting out of the car and seeing Chris standing in his open front door. ''Hi Y/N, hi Willow!'' he says and Dodger comes running outside, wanting to see who's coming to visit them. Willow jumps out of the car and immediately runs to Dodger and they start playing right away. ''It's like they never left,'' you tell Chris with a chuckle and he couldn't agree more. ''Wow, you look beautiful today, Y/N!'' Chris said when you walked closer and you twirled a few times for him, letting him enjoy everything he can get his eyes on. ''Thank you, I honestly feel like the sun itself,'' you say and you laugh so hard you snort a little bit, making your cheeks turn bright red.

Chris couldn't help but enjoy every second of it, he thought you were the best thing that has happened to him in a long time, and he only met you a week ago. ''Willow, you coming girl? There's a whole backyard you can play in!'' you tell her and she comes your way, Chris leading the way to his backyard. Willow and Dodger continue their play session there, and you almost forgot to give Chris the wine you brought. ''Oh, I brought you something as a thank you, I'll just need to grab it from my car real quick,'' you say and you grab the bottle. ''Here you go, I hope you like it,'' you say with a little blush on your cheeks because you ran the short distance to your car and back. ''It's my favorite actually!'' he said, ''Mine too,'' you laughed and you can't believe how much you have in common. ''I'll just chill this for now, so we can enjoy it over dinner. Can I get you something else to drink?''

About 15 minutes later you're both enjoying the sun in his backyard, watching the dogs run after each other and tiring each other out. ''So, what do you do for work?'' Chris asked, and you start explaining how you're a criminologist, so you analyze the behavioral patterns of criminals through sociology, psychology, economy, anthropology, and statistics, amongst other things. ''Been doing that for about 7 years now, and honestly, I love my job. Every day is different and it keeps me on my toes. Luckily I can also do this job from home, so I work 3 days in the office and 2 days at home, but today I had a day off. I was originally planning to go visit my friend, but she had to cancel, which is why I was able to come by today!'' you explain, and Chris is a really great listener, asking lots of questions you wouldn't expect.

When 7 PM rolls around, both you and Chris completely forgot about the time and realized you almost forgot about dinner. ''Did you want to order in, or did you want to cook something?'' you ask, and Chris was really in the mood to cook tagliatelle bolognese. ''Sounds perfect, shall I help?'' you ask and he happily accepts. Everything went fine until Chris accidentally let the pan of pasta sauce slip out of his hands, and it went all over the kitchen, and over him as well, covering him almost from head to toe. You just came back from the bathroom when you saw what happened and couldn't help but laugh, even though you felt bad for seeing him like this. ''Oh god, Chris, what happened?!'' you ask between the laughter and start cleaning up the kitchen a little. ''It slipped out of my hands. I'm gonna take a shower to get this sauce off of me, I'll be right back,'' he says before walking up the stairs towards his bathroom.

You start cleaning the rest of the kitchen, but you didn't want to waste the pasta that was already cooked, so you were happy to find some pesto and pine nuts, turning it into a pasta pesto instead of the bolognese it was supposed to be. The pasta was currently in the fridge, and you walked into Chris' living room when you suddenly noticed his piano. You didn't see it when you walked in, but you were excited to see it, you always loved playing the piano. You sat down on the stool in front of it and started playing one of your favorite songs, Easy On Me by Adele. You softly sang along and didn't hear Chris coming back from his shower. He heard the piano and his heart skipped a beat, realizing you were playing it and he stood there listening to you playing and singing along. ''I didn't know you could play the piano,'' he said in a soft, deep voice when he walked down the stairs.

''Oh yeah, I learned to play it ever since I was little, my parents had one growing up, and I enjoyed many hours playing it. I'm sorry, I should have asked you if I could play it first. I didn't mean to overstep-'' but before you could finish your sentence, Chris sat down next to you on the stool and started playing something too. When you recognized the song you started playing along on your side, and the two of you bonded deeply at that moment, never wanting it to end. ''You can play the piano all you want,'' Chris said with a smile and got up to walk back to the kitchen, only to find it was all cleaned up. ''Did you-'' ''Yeah!'' you answered before he could finish his sentence and with quick steps he walked back to you, grabbing your face in his hands before placing a soft kiss on your lips, your hands slowly snaking their way around his waist to pull him even closer. ''Thank you for running into my life,'' he said and he kissed you again, wanting this moment to last forever and ever.

You know how people are like “we don’t deserve dogs” and they’re right…

Chris Evans deserves dogs… and I think that’s the most ringing endorsement I can ever give a man.
