A few more weeks passed and in the last days Chris was a little weird. 
He was excited for something but he didn't want to tell me what all of that was about, despite my curiosity. 
And when I talked to Megan she didn't even seem a little curious about it.
Very strange of her, because she was always happy and excited when new projects were announced, especially if the Marvel cast was in them. 
Also every time her phone rang, she immediately picked it up, so I couldn't see the sender or the text. 
I didn't give it too much weight though, thinking that she was too busy with her new relationship with Aaron. 
A few days before Aaron had texted me and told me that he wanted to surprise Megan. 
So we had organised everything and he would have arrived, without her knowing.  
That morning, on my way to work Aaron had texted me that he had just landed, so the time to leave this suitcase at the hotel and he would have been there. 
-Hey good morning sunshine.- I said, opening the door of the studio. 
-Morning...- she answered dryly, turning her gaze to me. 
Her eyes were a little red and surrounded by dark circles, which she had tried to cover with makeup and failed. 
-What happened?- I asked worriedly, approaching her. 
-Aaron told me he can't come here this week...- she said, almost sobbing. 
-Oh, I'm sorry, girl.- I said, hugging her and trying not to smile, knowing that it wasn't true. 
-It's okay. Sorry, I'm so sentimental some times.- she said, wiping her eyes.
-Don't worry.- I smiled at her softly. 
-By the way, boss called me and we have a photoshoot today.- she said, turning her gaze on the computer. 
-Alright. I'm going to prepare the lights, the camera and the other things.- I said walking in the other room -When they'll arrive?- I asked her. 
-I don't really know.- she said -Maybe 20/30 minutes.- she said. 
"Fuck. Aaron will be here at that time." I thought. 
-Can't they come another day? I still have some work to do on other photos.- I said, hoping to convince her -Maybe tomorrow? Tomorrow is perfect.- 
-No, sorry. Boss said it must be today. But why not today though? Something's wrong? You don't feel well?- 
-No, no. I'm okay. Just...I don't know.- I said, throwing myself on the leather couch. 
-If you say so. Let's wait for the model.- she said, taking her phone from her pocket and tapping on it. 
I decided to text Aaron to inform him about the little mishap. 

Aaron

Aaron, we have a problem!!!
We have a client arriving in 20-30 minutes.
What do we do?

Don't worry. 
I should arrive around that time too.
I'll just stay there while you two work.
I won't be a problem, I swear.
I just want to see her. 

Alright, alright.
I guess it can work.

Yay!!!
You won't even notice me :)

For your information.
When I arrived she was crying because you texted her that you wouldn't come this week.

Noo.
I feel so bad now :(

She'll be okay.
She can survive another 20 minutes without you, hahaha.

But I can't, not without her.

I'm gonna throw up for all this sweetness.
Ew.

Alright, sorry, sorry.
Hahaha.
I just got in a taxi. 
I'll be there in 10 minutes or so.

Alright we'll be waiting.
See ya in a bit.

See ya.

I turned off my phone and turned to her. 
-Want some tea? Or coffee?- I asked her. 
-Coffee, please.- she smiled. 
-I'll be right back, miss.- I smiled going into the "kitchen" and preparing two steamy cups. 
One of coffee and one of tea. 
I came back into the room and handed her the cup, sitting next to her.
-Thanks.- she said, taking her cup and blowing on it, to cool it down. 
-You're welcome.- I said, blowing on my cup too. 
-Ah! Still hot.- she said, after she had burned her tongue as I laughed a little. 
After some sips and some talking my phone rang.

Aaron 

I'm about to knock.

I didn't even have the time to raise my face when someone had knocked.
-Can you go, please? I'm going to bring these cups in the sink.- I said, taking them. 
-Yeah.- she said, going to the door as I followed her, to see her reaction. 
As she opened the door her jaw dropped. 
-Surprise sweetie.- Aaron smiled at her. 
Her hands flew to her mouth, totally in shock. 
-Aaron...- she whispered, throwing herself on him, hugging him tightly, hiding her face in his chest. 
-Did you miss me?- he asked, giggling and kissed her head. 
-You...asshole.- she said, breaking the hug.
-It's not my whole fault. She knew.- he said, pointing at me. 
-Don't bring me into this.- I said, shaking my head. 
-You knew?- she asked, turning to me.
-Yeah.- I smiled guilty. 
We let him in and sat on the sofa. 
-She told me you have a model to photograph.- he said. 
-Mhmh.- she nodded -But it won't take long.- she smiled, almost amused. 
-And why is that?- I asked. 
-I don't know...just a feeling.- she shrugged. 
-You scare me sometimes, y'know.- I told her and she shrugged again.
The next moment someone knocked at the door.
Again.
-It must be them. Can you go, y/n?- she smiled. 
-If you insist.- I said standing up and going to the door. 
When I saw the person in front of me I almost couldn't believe it.
-Surprise y/n/n.- Chris smiled, opening his arms. 
-C...Chris?- I muttered, shocked. 
-The only one.- she smirked -Aren't you gonna hug me?- he asked. 
Without making him repeat it twice, I hugged him. 
He held me close and rubbed my back, as I leaned my face on his shoulder.
