[ astrid is facetiming chris ]

eyyo lil poop

hey lil chick, how you doing?

so much better without you here, there's definitely more time for me to sleep in
astrid chuckles
what's up with you, dorito?

im becoming depressed due to your absence in my life, kidding, everything's alright so far, filming for endgame is ending next week

endgame?

shit, no, i meant end of marvel, yeah. that's what i wanted to say

mr evans, was that a spoiler

a title spoiler, yes, now don't tell the russos or anyone if you want me to live

im gonna ask uncle rem for the russos contact number. anyway, isn't your contract ending after endgame?

yeah, im planning to take a year or two off from the spotlight. just some time to rest or something,

you deserve it, chrissy- and hey, didn't you wanna talk about something

you sure you don't want to go first?

nope, the stage's all yours, evans

uh... i don't really know how to phrase this and um, you can blame seb and mack if this gets awkward

chris, you can just say it, i don't judge

so, we've gone on a couple of dates right?

did we?

oh shut up, you said the stage's mine

okay, okay sorry, it's really yours now

so maybe, i realised that i really like you, so much more than friends and- what do you think about, you know, being more than friends?

so, friends with benefits?

you suck, ast. you know what im trying to say

okay, yes

okay
yes, great. I'm really calm, by the way

no, you were absolutely nervous

yeah, you're right, i was really nervous

i wanted to ask the same thing, i had a talk with ari and she indirectly threathened me to do this

no way, maybe seb and your friend are really meant to be. even though mack was much more of a help than seb was.

im not surprised, really but yeah, they did indirectly got us together

oh, so we are together now?

we aren't?

oh, no we definitely are. just confirming, y'know, making sure it's not a dream

it's definitely not a dream, christopher

i will go to liverpool and find you if this turns out to actually be a dream

good. then i'll have a goodass reason to kiss you.

hold on, let me just book a flight there right about now.

astrid snorts as chris chuckles
whatever you say, dorito

there was a short moment of comfortable silence

you know, i really hope that you are patient enough to wait fourteen days

i hope you're willing to wait 336 hours to see your boyfriend

boyfriend?

boyfriend. definitely, totally, absolutely boyfriend.

you better make my week in la worth it, boyfriend

i don't know, are you going to ditch me for ari and sebastian?

maybe, depends if i'm going to third-wheel them or not

glad to know that i'm your second choice. im hanging up now.

you're still there but im hanging up cause not all of us are multi-million-dollars-making actors who can pay expensive liverpool to atlanta phonecalls

you're a national rugby player, youtuber and in the 30 forbes under 30 list.

good to know, im still hanging up

facetime uses wifi, not bill charges

again, good to know, but don't you have something to get to?

it's not as important as my girlfriend

if i didn't have three important meetings coming up in the next two weeks, i would have been in a plane to hotlanta like right now

meetings?

yeah, one with the england rugby council, there's something with vogue uk and my parents are driving up to liverpool for a family reunion that i can't run from

all the best, squid. but i've got to go now, so call me soon, alright?

i'll text you later, chrisso. i've got a video shoot with caspar and joe, later ev
