Genevieve "Phoenix" Benali is a 22 year old film student at UCLA. When she gets the opportunity to join the crew of Infinity War, she catches the attention of one of the biggest stars on the planet.
"You have to hold down this button BEFORE you can start making the recipe." Phoenix sat on Chris's lap, trying to explain to him how to play Cook, Serve, Delicious 2 on her Nintendo switch. Because he sucked at adventure games, she thought he'd be better suited for the simulation and strategy category but boy, was she wrong.
"Babe, how am I supposed to do ANYTHING right with you looking like this and sitting on my lap like that? I have other things on my mind."
Phoenix rolled her eyes and attempted to slide off of his lap only for him to pull her back in. "I don't want to distract you."
"Maybe I want you to distract me." He spoke while allowing his hand to roam up his girlfriend's inner thigh.
"Maybe I want you to learn how to play this game so we can do multiplayer." Phoenix mumbled against his lips, pecking them before successfully sliding off of his lap in her second attempt.
Chris watched as Phoenix sat right next to him, with no space between the two. She swung her legs over his lap, causing him to rest his forearms on her legs as he held her portable gaming console.
"The things I do for you and you still wanna send me to the electric chair." He playfully teased in response to her tweet to him from earlier in the day.

@darthphoenix: @chrisevans Chair... but make it electric
"Hmm I'll reconsider my stance on the electric chair if you use SEPARATE shampoo and conditioner." Phoenix told him.
"Anything for you. I'm with you until the end of the line."
"I'm telling Sebastian! You're not loyal!"
"Well, Sebastian isn't my girlfriend."
"Isn't he though?"
"Sebastian, Hayley Atwell and I used to have some hot threesomes during the Captain America: the first avenger days." Chris joked. "So I guess you're right but Sebastian is more of a side piece; and now that I have you, I don't need my side piece anymore."
"For the entire 7 days we've been together you were cheating on me with your side piece?! Wow." Phoenix laughed. "How am I supposed to explain this to Jon Snow: the Orca?
Chris kissed her forehead after letting out a chuckle. "Why do I like you so much?"
"Because I'm AMAZING. Duh."
"Can't deny that."
"You're AMAZING too." She added while intertwining their fingers.
"Don't you think it's about time we tell people at work about us?" He asked while lifting her hand to his lips and kissing it. "I wouldn't say it feels like I'm lying to them per say but I don't like hiding things from them."
"I don't want you to feel like you're hiding things." Phoenix replied. The truth of the matter was, she didn't think telling people on set that they were officially dating would make a difference. It's not like they were sneaking around and secretly seeing each other, everyone already knew. "If you want to tell them, go ahead."
"Not me, us."
"They're your friends." She reminded. "I don't think it'd mean much coming from me."
Chris squeezed her hand. "You're a part of this family now too."
"I mean, I'm surprised they don't already know considering the fact that Tom can't keep anything to himself."
Immediately after becoming official with Chris, Phoenix told Tom. He didn't seem surprised at all, which is what gave her the impression that no one else in the cast would be shocked either. He did, however tell her how happy he was to see her in such a great space. 'I couldn't think of a better person for you to open your heart up to. It'll always be safe with Chris' is exactly what Tom told her.
"I didn't have that same problem with my old side piece, Sebastian."
"Why would you say that?" Phoenix poked her bottom lip out and pretended to cry. "You know how sensitive I am about your other girlfriend. I better not see him on the street."
"Oh stop it. Seb is already scared of you, remember?"
"He should be!" She responded jokingly before turning to face the door at the sound of a knock. "It's probably just Tom."
"I'll get it." Chris stood up before Phoenix had the chance to.
It didn't take him but a few steps to reach the door. After swinging it open, he noticed Tom was holding a box that was almost as big as he was.
"Hi Chris! Is Phoenix here?"
"Hi Tom! She is." Chris nodded while taking the box from Tom's hand. He figured he'd have an easier time carrying it inside than Tom did. Tom followed closely behind Chris as he walked farther into Phoenix's hotel room, revealing her sitting in the couch with her Nintendo switch on the coffee table.
At the sight of Tom, she jumped up immediately to run over and give him a hug. Chris smiled at the interaction between the two friends as he absolutely adored hers and Tom's friendship. It was no doubt a friendship that would last forever.
"Someone brought you a gift." Chris announced before placing the box on the couch.
"You didn't!" She spoke to Tom with a smile. She had an idea of what exactly was behind the wrapping paper.
"I promised you I would." Tom grinned. Months ago when he and Chris had convinced Phoenix to star in her own short film, Tom promised to buy her the Star Wars Ultimate Millennium Falcon LEGO set that had over 7,000 pieces. He shelled out $800 to get it for her but he still would've bought it even if it was $5,000.
"It's the Millennium Falcon lego set." Phoenix spoke to Chris while unwrapping the paper, revealing a black box that read: Star Wars Ultimate Collector Series. "Wow I'm having an orgasm."
"You had one last night." Chris spoke to himself so quietly that no one else heard him.
"You're really a dork, Phoenix." Tom said, laughing. She honestly was one of the nerdiest people he had ever met but that was one of the best things about her.
"A HUGE dork." Chris agreed.
"You're calling ME a dork?" Phoenix scoffed. "You're a bigger dork than me, Mr. I know all the words to every Disney song that has ever existed."
"It's not my fault they're catchy!" He defended. "Look at this stuff, isn't it neat? Wouldn't you think my collection's complete? Wouldn't you think I'm the girl, the girl who has EVERYTHINGGGG?"
"This is my boyfriend." Phoenix looked over at Tom while gesturing towards the man who was singing Part of Your World from the Little Mermaid.
"If I wasn't already promised to Pratt, I'd marry him." Tom chuckled.
"UP WHERE THEY WALK. UP WHERE THEY RUN. UP WHERE THEY STAY ALL DAY IN THE SUN." Chris continued to serenade her. He grabbed Phoenix's hands and pulled her into his chest. "Sing with me!"
"That's my dork." Phoenix muttered to herself before finishing the song with Chris.
"WANDERING FREE, WISH I COULD BE... PART OF YOUR WORLD."
