Life in Quarantine

Part 2

***please don't copy or post my work, but feel free to reblog, like and comment! ***

It wasn't a hard decision to make. Chris wanted me to stay with him for now while the world dealt with the crisis of this virus. Every state had different rules in place but for the most part, it was very similar. The first thing I did was call my parents. Not because I needed permission, I was well past the age of that, but out of respect and common courtesy. This was pretty serious and I would always be their child so I wanted to talk this decision through with them. Chris and I called them via video to talk to them about it.

The conversation went well and they gave us their blessing to ‘live together’ instead of being separate for who knows how long. They knew I would be well taken care of and with technology today, we could talk through video. My job also contacted me with my next contracted assignment and it was going to be set up remotely which meant I could work from wherever I wanted. Chris made a space in his office for my computer and things I would need right next to his.

His live video interviews would be done in the alcove off of the kitchen/dining room or in his bedroom for the most part. This would be safe for keeping our relationship private longer. We had done a good job so far, aside from the occasional speculations made throughout social media and his fans. This pandemic would be easy to keep our secret going since we didn’t plan to be out until we knew more about things. I had seen how some fans, not many when compared to amount of fans he has, would react to the knowledge of Chris having a girlfriend in the past. There was no doubt in my mind people would hate me, but I knew that going into this.

Scott was doing some things remotely for work just like Chris and I. His room was over the garage on the other side of the house. It was actually like a living suite almost. Needless to say, he’d be just as comfortable there as an apartment or him mom’s. Jennifer Garner started a charity for kids when the quarantine began and of course Chris found out and signed up to participate. I followed Chris on Instagram but we decided he didn’t need to follow me because fans would definitely pick up on him following a random girl. He had a private Instagram with a fake name that he followed friends and family and me on. I was in the middle of setting my things up in the office when I received a notification that Chris had posted something. Yeah, corny I know, I get notifications for my boyfriend, but what can I say? He is pretty damn cute.

Watching the video of Chris reading, ‘If You Give A Dog A Donut’, my smile basically split my face in two. At first I wasn’t too keen on him cutting his hair. But watching this video reminded me of how much I loved this look on him. Sometimes I couldn’t understand how this man made flannel and a buzzcut look as hot as he did.

That cute little smile made me feel like he actually pictured himself sitting in a preschool reading this to a bunch of kids and it warmed my heart. Seeing the soft side of this big, strong man always made me feel like I won the lottery.

Right when the video ended, I was brought out of my own thoughts when Chris snuck up on me. “YOU ALREADY WATCHED IT? Oh man! You need to turn off those notifications!”

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

March 22 Scott buzzed his head too, just not as well as Chris had.

Chris had buzzed his head since he knew he wouldn’t have any work for a while. He found it easier and more comfortable not worrying about having to brush or style if for video conferences calls. Once Scott saw Chris being as carefree about his hair he followed along behind his brother. He missed quite a few spots and asked me to help him but I didn’t want that responsibility so he asked Chris.

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Chris joined in on a few more charities to raise money.

ASP finally launched and Chris was so nervous.

🌝🌝🌝🌝🌝🌝🌝🌝🌝🌝🌝🌝🌝🌝🌝🌝🌝🌝

Dodger had been scheduled to get a hair cut but then the quarantine changed those plans. Chris thought he could do it himself. He was wrong.

May 14, 2020 Chris had an interview with Jimmy Fallon and showed the picture of the haircut he attempted on poor Dodger. I had been recruited after he cut it too short and finished the job but that part was left out for obvious reasons. He also just said he was in quarantine with Scott, leaving out the whole girlfriend part.

The guys played a game with Jimmy and I made sure to stay clear of hearing anything. I knew there was a big chance of me giggling at them because they were so cute together when they did things like this.

‘Life in Quarantine’

Part 1

***please don’t copy or post my work, but feel free to reblog, like and comment! ❤️***

Taking the one year contract for my current assignment for my job took me to Boston, Massachusetts. After being there about a month, I had made a friend while I was out with some co-workers. Eventually he asked me if I’d be interested in going on a date. After about three weeks of dating, the topic came up about if we were seeing other people or if we wanted to see where this thing went if we were exclusive. I had admitted that I hadn’t seen anyone else anyway since our first date. He laughed and said ironically, he hadn’t either because he didn’t have an interest in anyone else. Besides being gorgeous and everything that is obvious, he was so much more. Christopher Evans is the real deal.

A pure gentleman in every way imaginable. His laugh is contagious but he can also be so gentle and caring. A hyper goofball at times and a mature, calm man at other times. Even though it hadn’t been a really long time, it felt like it had been. We were like puzzle pieces almost. When you put a 1000 piece puzzle together, only to find one piece missing after all that work. Then, miraculously, you find that missing piece under the sofa and place it in its spot, it makes it complete. That’s how I felt about Chris dropping into my life out of nowhere when he is usually traveling here or there for work, me living in a new place for a little while, then we ended up in the same place and meeting. He was my other half, who made me smile, made me feel safe, happy and complete. So much so that is hurt to think of not being with him and scared me at how fast I fell.

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

That’s when this virus got some attention on the news. I was scheduled to go home, another state away. Currently, when I was between jobs, I was living in the guest house at my parents since I travelled for periods of time being a contractual analyst. My current job had been contracted for 6 months in the Boston area and since there was speculation of a nationwide shut down, the work finished up a few days early. This meant the condo that was set up for me would also be done. Even so, if there was going to be this state of emergency coming, I needed to figure out being in a separate state from Chris during something that was beginning to sound like it was pulled right from the movies. I texted him to tell him I had just been notified that it was best to go ahead and get back to wherever it was I wanted to be in case of a quarantine.

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

—————————————————————————

Sitting at my desk, packing up the last of my stuff, my phone began to sound with the ring tone I had set for Chris. He was actually FaceTiming me.

“Hey babe. I got your text. Uh, I thought we’d have a little bit more time to figure out how we were going to do this once your work here was done. This sucks. I’m not ready for you to go.”

Smiling, his endearment made me all warm inside as I responded. “I know. Apparently this quarantine thing is gonna happen though and I need to get home while I can. I’m not leaving yet though, I’m still coming over tonight like we planned and we can talk about it then. We’ll figure something out.”

——————————————————————

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Both of us were starving by the time we sat down to eat, neither of us having had time for lunch today. We were kind of off throughout dinner, definitely not our loud and giggly selves. Even Dodger could tell we were both tense, his eyes darting between us as he lay at our feet. I had picked up takeout and brought it to Chris’ house when I left the office. I knew Scott was supposed to arrive in the next few hours so I made sure we had enough just in case.

——————————————————————————❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Scott actually showed up right when we were finishing up, Dodger jumping up to greet his favorite uncle at the door. I took Chris’ plate and mine into the kitchen to wash them after hugging Scott so the two brothers could catch up on their plans. I could feel Chris watching me carefully though as I left the room.

After I dried the second plate and was placing it back in the cabinet, I heard footsteps going up the steps towards Scott’s bedroom. I was closing the cabinet door when I felt Chris’ strong, warm arms wrap around me from behind as he laid his chin on my shoulder, speaking into my ear. “So, while Scott’s upstairs for a minute, are we gonna talk about you, me and this pending quarantine?”

“It’s really starting to scare me how fast the country is preparing things right now. The schools have closed, my parents and siblings have all stocked up and are starting their two weeks of isolation before they go around each other to be considered their own bubble. I’ve done nothing yet and still have to get home before I can even start. My mom said the stores are already showing empty shelves.”

Chris had already ordered a boatload of groceries and supplies beginning two weeks ago when there was just a rumor of what was possibly coming. Turning in his arms, I looked up into Chris’ face and found a similar expression I had seen all through dinner. My mood declined quickly, especially seeing him in this somber state that I wasn’t familiar with. I could tell he was thinking and that he was bothered. This virus was definitely worrying him just like everyone else, but he was the type to withdraw and clam up, getting quiet when he was bothered. The way he was this time was different though. As much as I didn’t want to go, I knew I had to get myself in order. I mentioned heading back to start packing soon and he stepped back, still holding me, but at an arms distance, before he responded.

“So, just like that, you’re gonna pack up and leave? What are we gonna do, have dates via FaceTime and zoom for who knows how long?”

“Seriously Chris? I never said that I was going to leave tonight. Why are you getting loud? That’s not fair, I’m the one with uncertainty looming here, not being prepared and still have to get home. This isn’t exactly easy for me either.”

“There is no uncertainty. You do have a home to go to and you know your parents have things to get you through whatever you need since you haven’t been there to do it. Same goes for here, I have plenty as well. I think we’re pretty far enough along in this relationship for you to know how much I care about you and would take care of you before letting you just make do during a pandemic.”

“This has escalated way out of hand. I know you wouldn’t let anything happen to me any more than I would you. Regardless of this virus, we knew I would have to get my things I have up here out of the condo within the next few days since the contract is done. No matter when I leave, I have to have that done, so I need to pack.”

“I thought we’d have a little more time to talk about us and how we would handle the distance but now this virus has moved the date up and thrown a huge obstacle in the way.”

“Nothing has changed in my opinion. Just that it is happening sooner and quicker. Are you saying that if we can’t see each other for a while that it changes things between us?”

“Absolutely not Y/N.” Chris had gotten a little louder by this point.

From the corner of my eye I saw Scott walk into the kitchen. He looked between Chris and I before speaking up. “Uh, I think I’m gonna go read for a bit. In. My. Room.”

Walking over to Scott, I patted his arm as I walked by speaking. “It’s okay. I have to get going.” Reaching down, I gave Dodger’s head a soft rub and grabbed my purse. Scott turned and spoke back up.

“Wait. What’s going on? Are you leaving, like, going home, home? Or your condo? What the hell did I just walk into?” I saw Scott give Chris a questioning look like I was missing something, but I needed to remove myself from this conversation. As hard as it seemed for Chris, it was a little harder for me with the extra things I had going on. On my way to the door, I heard the brothers talking quietly, but I did hear Scott tell Chris to say what he meant.

Turning to wait for my boyfriend to come give me a kiss and a hug before heading out, I found him jogging up to me from the living room. Wrapping his big arms around me, he spoke and I heard it echo through his chest since he held me so tightly. “I’m sorry. I just, I’m nervous about this whole pandemic, it’s messing with my work, and mostly, I don’t want to lose you.”

Pulling back so I could look into his face, I rested my hands on his chest while he still held me. I tried to speak quietly. “Why would you lose me? It goes both ways you know, I hope you know how much I care about you too.”

“I do. It’s just, I have so much I’ve wanted to say and now I feel like this shitty predicament is robbing us.”

“I’m just going to pack. I’m not leaving tonight. Now you have me nervous. Why do you have so much to say.”

“I don’t know. I just thought we had more time.”

“Chris. You act like you’re never gonna see me again. What the hell is going on?”

“Just, ...just stay. Don’t go... please. I can’t stand thinking about not seeing this face, hugging you.....kissing you.” Chris looked as if he almost had tears in his eyes before he finished. “Look, I know we have taken this kind of slow, but it’s because I want to do it right. I feel like, well I feel like this is something special, and I don’t want to mess it up. This fuhkin’ virus is making me realize it even more. I want what’s important around me and you are part of that. I love you Y/N.”

That was one thing we had not said to one another yet. The tears I was holding back from watching him this worked up spilled over. Placing his hands on each side of my face, along my cheeks, he used his thumbs to wipe the tears away as he spoke.

“Don’t cry sweetheart. I mean, I hope you already could tell...”

“I love you too. Hopefully you could tell too.”

With that warm smile that reached his eyes, Chris nodded. “I think the only part missing was actually saying it.” I was crying by this point and hugging Chris, not wanting to let go and certainly not ready to put a whole state between us. Not after hearing and saying those three little words that seemed bigger than the world.

Chris pushed away a little but didn’t let go as he spoke again. It seemed so much lighter now and easier, like a weight had been lifted for him. “Please, stay......stay here with me.” We heard Scott clear his throat from the living room. “Geez, and Scotty of course. There’s plenty of room. If you don’t want to stay in my room there’s enough rooms for you to have your own, just, ... don’t leave. You can video call your family, we can eventually go see them once everyone here and there are definitely safely quarantined on all sides. Just, for now... please stay?

“Okay, but you have to help me pack. And you too Scotty, so chop chop. We have to start this quarantine.”
