THE CAST WERE BUZZING WITH EXCITMENT AND NERVOUSNESS. they all knew that they would be finding out the next couple of films that were in development. it was even better as all of the cast were there, most of the crew were there, even taika waititi, one of the directors, was there too. winnie was walking in with tessa, leitita and karen, they were laughing about something. the four of them were a few of the last ones in, kevin fiege making a comment about them being late making everyone in the cafeteria laugh.

winnie immediatly scanned the room for chris, but she couldn't see him. he was at the back with mackie, seb and hemsworth. winnie was ushered to sit, so her scanning was broken away. meanwhile, chris was watching her. He watched her eyes light up as she smiled, her flustered cheeks, her brown locks flowed as she stupidly danced to brie. she was so beautiful and radiant, that he couldn't help but smile. he couldn't believe that she was his, that she actually wanted to even look his way. he knew how lucky he was to have her, she educated him in ways he didn't know how. he felt as if he grew as a person just by watching and talking to her.

"wow." mackie muttered under his breath, laughing as chris looked at him, "you do realise basically everyone in this whole room is in love with her right."

chris chuckled, playfully pushing mackie, "and lucky for me, shes all mine."

kevin had a mic and a projector behind him.

"talk about extra." tessa whispered to winnie, making her giggle.

"so we are going to be announcing two films for our wonderful rota of films. they have both been in the works for years, one film for a many many years." kevin chuckled, "our rota is very male. it has been for quite a while and we have realised how stupid we have been that this hasn't happened sooner. these films are going to be huge, they're going to change the game."

winnie looked at lizzie, who was sat behind her and smiled at her.

"maybe this concept art will give you a hint." the projector behind him showed concept art of the phoenix, captain marvel, valykrie, spider-woman and she-hulk all suited up and ready to fight. this group of superheros was called the 'fatale dreamers'.

"pom, karen, danai and letitia you will also be joining these ladies in a film called 'a-force', it will be a standalone film." kevin also explained.

winnie smiled so big. finally.

the cast started to clap and woop, before laughing.

"you asked. we give. fatale dreamers and a-force!"

tessa wrapped her arm around winnie as they hugged.

"and two of our favourite girlies will be producing them both, miss watson and miss thompson!" more claps sounded.

"settle down. settle down." kevin laughed again, now please forgive me as I am about to sound incredibly cheesy. but it's necessary."

winnie smiled slightly, knowing exactly what this was about.

"this next one has been in development ever since we cast this incredible person, she only found out during ultron." kevin gave a little side eye to winnie, "i remember when we first saw her on screen, she was a 10 year who made our hairs stand up just by her presence on screen. she could hold the screen like no other and we are so lucky to have her apart of the marvel team. when we saw her we new immediately that she was the one we were looking for."

"so we called her agent, brought her in to have a screen test - ruffalo and downey you can back me up when I say this. it was insane, we had never seen anything like it. it was like we were a child prodigy, which she is. this girl didn't audition for the film, she didn't know what it was for but she came with versatility and an impeccable attitude."

"now we can finally say what has been one of our most exciting projects yet. You can probably all guess." kevin laughed, pointing to winnie.

winnie blushed when every single head turned to her and people started to clap. 

winnie turned towards he back and she caught eyes with chris, who looked to be in his own little word. he wasn't smiling, he was just staring into space. winnie's smile fell and looked down, before trying to cover it up by looking at kevin and smiling.

"and because all of us have worked so hard, here's a little preview of the phoenix."

***********

once the little video finished, everyone went manic, the small footage that they had managed to sneakily film last month was incredible. chris's mind was elsewhere. he couldn't believe it, it was so amazing. yet he couldn't smile. this meant she was going to be even busier than she was before, and that was busy. winnie had infinity war, avengers 4, the phoenix, the fatale dreamers and a-force to be filming in the upcoming years, as well as other projects. he loved her so much but he couldn't help but think he was holding her back.

he was so proud of her. so so proud of her. he was excited. so so excited. but he didn't know what to do, or what to say.

sebastian nudged him, "that looked fucking sick." but he stopped smiling once he realised chris's face. "what's wrong?"

and chris turned to sebastian with a solemn expression, "i'm holding her back."
