goldfish commercial

Summary:

So i had a thought what if nora got to be in a commercial with chris for goldfish

Warning: fluff

pairing: chris evans x reader, chris evans! nora

Nora stood beside Chris giggling as she held a bag of cheddar goldfish. She was excited! After interrupting Chris a million times goldfish crackers decided that they wanted to do a commercial with Nora and Chris.

Nora had no idea what was happening but she noticed the goldfish so she knew it was going to be a good day.

“Daddy, I eat this goldfish?” Chris turned to his left seeing Nora holding the bag of goldfish up so he can see. “Not yet Nora. We gotta wait till we’re done.”

Nora huffed but said ‘otay’. Chris turned back to the producer. He was making sure he knew what he was going to say before they start.

After reading the script a few more times Chris was ready. He turned to Nora, “all you got to say is goldfish Daddy. You got that?” Nora nodded confidently, “Otay.”

One of the people behind the camera walked Nora behind the set before action was called. Chris started to fake talk on the laptop on the desk in the room like he always does.

Not long after Nora walked into the room with the goldfish. For a second she was going to say her line but she got distracted by the make-up lady.

“hi!” She said waving at her, she smiled brightly. Everyone laughed before chris got up, walking over to Nora. “Sweetheart, while you’re acting they don’t exist. You just have to say what I told you to me ok?”

Nora nodded, “Otay.”

Chris returned to the desk while Nora was put back in the other room. Action was called again and Chris did what he was doing before. This time when it was Nora’s time she walked in up to chris. “Goldfish Daddy?” She handed out the goldfish to him giving him her puppy eyes.

“not now; I’m working.” Nora nodded. Before the cut can be called Nora walked up to the main camera. It wasn’t apart of the acting but she said it anyways.“do you want goldfish?” She tilt her head to the side as she said that to the camera.

“cut!”

Nora turned to look at Chris. “Did I do good daddy?” Chris got up. Out the corner of his eyes he saw the director giving an thumbs up. He kneeled down to Nora height. “You did Princess!”

Nora squealed loudly. She wrapped her arms around him giving him a big hug. Chris laughed picking her up. Nora smiled, pulling away from Chris. “Can I be a Ac- actor like you?”

Chris couldn’t believe his baby wanted to be like him. “Uh you can be whatever you want princess.” Nora giggled again before she got serious. “Oh can I have the goldfish now Daddy?”

Chris chuckled, “yes you can.”

After Nora interrupts Chris on zoom calls and fan video, she has become an internet sensation. Her adorableness made Chris's fans and many others go crazy. Nora really didn't know that she was famous for her goldfish, but tonight she was going on to jimmy fallon to talk about it.

You held Nora's little hand as you stood to the side of the stage. Nora had her stuffed dog and her care bear lunch box that had nothing in it but a bag of cheddar goldfish in her hands. She was mumbling her ABCs as she watched her daddy talk. 

"Are you excited to go out there Nora?" You whispered to her. She looked up at you, nodding with a smile. "Yeah, I excited. I go out to all those people." She pointed to the crowd that she didn't seem to mind.

You smiled at her before looking back at Chris. You listened. 

Your daughter Nora stole the show the last time we talked. Uh she really likes goldfish right?"

Chris nodded, chuckling slightly. "Yeah, loves them." Jimmy laughed. "Well she's here. Let's bring Nora out." Both Jimmy and Chris got up as they announced Nora. She squealed as you walked her out to Chris. She waved to the crowd that was awing at her. The smile on her face grew in size when she reached Chris.

She shook Jimmy's hand before she took a seat on Chris's lap because she was so small. 

"Nora how are you?" Jimmy asked her. She looked down at her doggy with a smile. "I okay." She muttered. Awws came from the crowd as she talked. 

"Do you know why you're here?" 

Nora looked up at Jimmy, her eyes lighting up. "My goldfish!" She said happily Jimmy and Chris laughed. "Yes your goldfish. Why do you like goldfish so much." 

Nora frowned her eyebrows. "Hm I don't know. They're yummy." She held up her lunch box for Jimmy to see. "I got my goldfish in her." She turned to Chris. "Daddy, you want goldfish?" She asked.

Chris laughed, shaking his head. "No thank you sweetheart." Nora nodded because she understood. "Yeah yeah you're working." Everyone laughed at her sass. 

"Nora why do you interrupt your daddy all the time?" Nora looked at Jimmy like he was crazy. "I not interrupting daddy, he's just always busy talking to you people." She pointed to the crowd who were smiling at her.

"Okay okay," jimmy laughed. "well since you love goldfish so much I got something for you." Jimmy pulled out a gift basket with a bunch of different flavors of goldfish. Nora gasped loudly at the gift. 

"Oh my goodness." She said looking at Chris who was trying so hard not to laugh his ass off. "That's all for me daddy?" She asked. Chris nodded, "yes it is. What do you say to Jimmy?"

Nora looked over at jimmy. Her eyes are big and bright. "I love you." That wasn't what Chris meant, but it was obvious she meant it.

It was around 7:30 and you, Chris and Nora were just relaxing on the couch, watching TV. It was a lazy day which you all loved. Nora was crunching away at her goldfish I Chris's lap, her little giggles at the fail on afv made you and Chris laugh.

"Is that funny Nora?"

She turned to you, nodding. "Uh huh." You smiled at her. "Okay , I should start dinner." You gotta get up from the couch, making your way to the kitchen. Opening the fridge, you started to search for what you all were going to eat, but you came up short.

"Hmm no food."

Chris turned around when you said that. "We have no food?" You looked over at him, nodding. "We need to go to the store."

Chris gently placed nora onto the couch. "Okay. Do you want to go or just me?" You started to act like you were thinking, but you know your answer. "Hmm… I think… we should all go." Chris smiled at you, "okay let's go."

-:-:-:-:-:-:-

The drive to the store was quite short. The short way there was filled with singing of the alphabet, both Chris and Nora singing together. You smiled at the two you loved so much.

When you arrived at the store, you got Nora out of the car. Nora held onto Chris's hand and her stuffy in the other as you walked into the store. You grabbed a cart and began to shop.

You were only there to get a few things. But Nora wasn't on the same page with you and Chris. Every Time she saw something that looked good, she gasped and took it off the shelf, trying to put it in a cart. You and Chris had to stop her several times before your cart was filled up by her.

You continued to shop and Nora continued to try and put things in the cart sneakily. You shook your head as you turned down the aisle. Nora tottered behind you, Chris trying to keep her at bay. She looked around and saw the most amazing thing ever.

"Oh my goodness goldfish!!!"

Everyone on the aisle began to look over at her, chuckling under their breaths. You looked down at Nora. "Mommy goldfish, goldfish." She chanted. You laughed. "I see."

"Otay let's get this one and this one." She said, dropping her stuffy as she pulled the bags off the shelf. You and Chris laughed. "Okay Nora no sweetheart."

She stopped and looked at Chris, a frown sitting on her little face making you snicker.

"How about we get one okay?" She nodded. "Otay." She put one of the bags and put the other back on the shelf. " Otay I ready."

You better believe Nora kept that bag of goldfish in her hands. She was smiling the whole time as you finished shopping. You could hear her giggling every now and then and muttering, tank you to you and Chris.

When you made it to the checkout counter you took the bag from her so it can be rung up. As soon as the check out lady was done scanning it, Chris handed it back to her. She smiled and hugged the bag.

I so happy." She said. Chris felt his heart melt seeing his baby so happy over goldfish. "You're so happy Nora?" She nodded. "Yeah I so happy." Chris chuckled before kissing her forehead. "Okay."

Chris wasn't quite sure how he was going to do the show with Jimmy Fallon and Scott. Nora was most likely going to interrupt him and he wasn't going to deny that wasn't going to happen.

You were doing everything in your power to keep her from out of his office, but little miss Nora always found a way to sneak past you. You and Chris decided that if you play outside with her maybe she wouldn't distract him.

"Ok Nora." Chris started, kneeling down to her height. "You gotta stay out here with mommy okay?" Nora didn't nod, but Chris kept going. "Your goldfish is on the table over there." He pointed to the patio table sitting near the house.

"And you can play with mommy and Dodger, do you understand me sweetheart?" Chris looked at Nora, waiting for her to answer. Nora's eyes lit up when he finished. "Otay."

Chris smiled at her. "Okay sweetheart." He kissed her forehead. Chris stood up and turned to you. "Alright you sure you keep up with this little goldfish?" One of his eyebrows raised as he asked you that question.

"Yes I can. Now go before you miss it." You walked up to him kissing him. Chris chuckled softly before pulling away. "Okay I love you." Chris walked to the patio door. "Bye bye Nora."

Nora turned to Chris and smiled, waving her little hand. "Bye daddy." Chris smiled at her cuteness. "Bye bye sweetheart.

.・。.・゜✭

Chris settled himself down in his chair that was beside Scott's. He blew raspberries, before exhaling. " here goes nothing."

The interview started, and Chris and Scott began to talk to Jimmy. While they did that, you and Nora were outside playing on her playset that Scott got her. You can tell the two year old was a little upset when she wasn't around her daddy, but her little giggles made her forget about Chris.

"Mommy Dodgers is chasing his tail." Nora shouted from the top of the slide, laughing. You turned to Dodger who was indeed chasing his tail in circles. "I see."

Nora sat down and slid down the slide. When she reached the bottom, she looked up at you. "Mommy I eat my goldfish now?" She looked up at you with puppy dog eyes even though she knew the answer was yes.

"Yes sweetheart." You took her hand and led her to the table where her goldfish were. She happily took the goldfish and began to eat them, little mmm's left her mouth. You laughed as you sat down on the lounge chair and began to read the magazine that was sitting on the table.

Nora munched away at her goldfish and began looking around. She saw that your nose was deep in your book, and you weren't even paying attention to her. Nora saw her opportunity and she ran with it.

She may have been two, but she was smart enough to tiptoed to the door and slightly pulled it open. She successfully got the door open enough for her to squeeze her tiny, little body into.

Walking in, she thought she managed to escape, but you turned around catching her.

"Nora May Evans!" You gave her your stern mommy look which made her freeze.

"What did daddy say?" You stood up, placing your hands on your hips, looking at her. Nora turned around and looked at you. Before you know it a little squeal left her lips and she was racing to Chris's office with goldfish in her hands.

You groaned as you began chasing after her. "Nora!" Chris and Scott could hear the sound of feet ringing through the halls and they knew what was coming next.

Nora bursted through the door stopping Jimmy talking in his tracks. She hopped into Chris's lap as you appeared in the doorway.

Chris looked at you with a sad look on his face. You felt guilty.

"Uh sorry. She's a pain in the butt."Chris smiled looking down at Nora in his lap."You keep interrupting me sweetheart."

Nora laughed, showing the gross chewed up goldfish in her mouth. Chris' face scrunched up, as he shook his head. "Say hi to Jimmy Nora."

Nora turned to the computer and a smile grew on her face. "Hi Jimmy!" She didn't know him, but she was very happy to see him.

"Hello how are you Nora?" Jimmy asked the little girl who was wiggling her way into Scott's lap. "I otay." You all smiled at her as Jimmy kept talking.

"I see you like goldfish. Do you keep interrupting your da-"

"Goldfish!"

Nora pulled out a handful and held it out to Jimmy as he mentioned goldfish. Chris laughed at her. "Yep she keeps interrupting me." Nora turned around and looked at Chris and Scott. "Goldfish?" They both shook their heads. "No thank you." Nora shrugged her little shoulder. "Otay all for me and Mama then." She hopped out of Scott's lap and walked over to you. "I sowwy for running away mama. We goldfish Otay?"

You smiled and took her hand. "It's okay. Say bye bye."Nora turned around and tried to wave, but she had goldfish in her hand. "Bye bye."

No matter how hard Chris tried, he was always interrupted by his daughter Nora. Even if it was just her running through the hall or yelling something to Dodger it was always an interruption. 

Chris was hoping maybe, just maybe he would make it through this video message without Nora interrupting him. He held the phone in his hand, pressing the record button.

"Hi everyone, Chris Evans here. I just wanted to send a message-" "daddy!" Chris exhaled, shutting his eyes tightly. Nora walked up to him, her big beautiful eyes looking up at him. "Daddy, no goldfish?" 

She put both her hands up like she was asking why. Chris looked down at her, "no, daddy doesn't have goldfish." Nora was devastated. "Ah no goldfish." She had puppy dog eyes, a little Pout was on her face. Chris instantly went soft at the sight.

"Nora it's okay. You go and ask mommy for the goldfish, she has some." The two years old lit up. "Oh okay." She turned around, her pink dress flowing a little.

"Mommy!" You were in the living room typing away at your computer when she called you. "Yes sweet pea?" She walked into the living room. "Goldfish Mama." She put her hands out. "Peas."

You smiled at her, oh alright." You sat your computer onto the coffee table and walked into the kitchen. You pulled out a bag of goldfish handing it to Nora who followed you.

"Here you are baby." She smiled widely. "Tank you." She tottered off to go to Chris. Chris was halfway through the video when Nora called him again. 

"Daddy!" Chris looked down to her. "What is princess?" She put her hand out showing him the goldfish. "I got goldfish daddy." She opened the bag and ate one. Chris laughed, "I see. I have to finish this video. Will you let me do that?" She looked up at him. "Otay."

Chris started the video again this time making it through the video without Nora interrupting him. She would every now and then say mmm as she enjoyed her goldfish making Chris laugh.

When Chris ended the video he looked down at Nora. "Are they yummy?" She nodded, walking to him. "Yummy." Chris picked her up, kissing her cheek. "Can I have some?" Nora nodded holding one out for Chris. He opened his mouth letting her drop one in his mouth. It was a little warm from being in her hand, but Chris enjoyed it. "Mm thank you Nora."

She smiled, giggling. "You welcome."

I don't think fic writers know how much they matter

Do you know how many times you distracted me when I was hurt or lonely? Do you know how many times a line or a scene from fanfic marked me so much that I remembered years later, even though I can’t recall my own phone number? 

Even if the fic isn’t perfect or popular or multi-chaptered… Sometimes there’s just one sentence that changed me.

You, miles and miles away, changed me.

No, we don’t know.

 Because 95% of readers don’t tell us this. 

They don’t reblog fics, they don’t comment and so while we know our work is being read, we see the hit count go up or your likes, we can’t know that we’ve changed you, that you remember our words or that we’ve given comfort or friendship for a while if we’re not told.

Christmas News

requested: “Hey… I’ve got this idea for Chris Evans x reader where y/n tries to tell Chris she’s pregnant with some clues on Christmas and he just doesn’t get it but his whole family does?”

warnings: very few swears, pregnancy nausea, chris being completely clueless lol, but its really all fluff!

a/n: i looove writing for dad!chris and/or x pregnant!reader so thanks for this request! i imagine this is how it would go when you’re pregnant with your first baby :) also, i am currently working on requests and finishing up on the last parts of Futile which will be out on the 19th and the 24th!

wc: 2.1k

no beta so pls excuse any errors!

“Boys, would you calm down?” you hear your mother in law laugh at her grown sons.

Chris has Scott in a headlock, Scott is shouting and writhing around, and Chris is just about laughing his ass off. It started off as a simple disagreement about a certain breed of dog. Stupid, really. But then Chris fact-checked via some online Dogpedia and he ended up being right. Then, being the sore winner he is, resulted in the current situation of terrorizing his younger brother. You would’ve intervened, but it was just too funny. Whenever you get together with his family, Chris and Scott seem to regress back to their childhood schemes, and this Christmas morning is no different.

Eventually, Chris lets up, Scott catches his breath, and both brothers laugh it off. Chris comes back to sit down next to you on the couch with his cup of coffee, allowing you to snuggle back into his embrace.

“I don’t know why you want kids when you still are one, Honey,” you taunt, reaching a hand up to fix his mussed up hair with a giggle.

“It’s just Scott,” he whines, and you nod, knowing how incredibly responsible Chris is with his nieces and nephews.

“I’m only teasing,” you mumble into his cheek as your lips leave a kiss over his beard. And really, you are just teasing, because today’s going to be the day you share the big news with Chris and his family: you’re almost six weeks pregnant!

You’ve only told his sisters yet because they’re in on the surprise, too. The three of you coordinated to get Chris and their husbands all the same shirt, hoping that when Chris opens his, he’ll realize what you’re trying to say. You also have a little sign for Dodger to come in wearing if he still doesn’t get it. And as a final, most obvious resort, you also have an ornament that’s pretty straightforward. Not to mention the little hints you’ve been dropping all morning.

You sigh and lean back into his arms, but thanks to morning sickness and hormones, the scent of his coffee starts to make you nauseous. You groan quietly as you feel your face flush hot with the slightest wave of nausea. You close your eyes and rest your head and let it nuzzle a little bit into his shoulder to try to settle your mind and stomach.

“You feeling okay, Sweetheart?” he asks once he notices your tell-tale signs of discomfort.

“Yeah, it’s just your coffee,” you mutter quietly as to not draw attention to yourself.

“My coffee?” he asks, sliding out from behind you a little to look at you.

“Yeah, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just the mix of all the breakfast smells, too, honestly. I just feel kinda queasy,” you subtly hint, even though this wasn’t one of the ideal ways to hint at your pregnancy.

“Oh, Honey, I’m sorry,” he coos, kissing your temple and resting a hand on your tummy which isn’t noticeably swollen yet. You almost jump at the contact, thinking he might already know something, but then you remember that’s just his normal way of comforting you with things like stomach aches or period cramps.

Interrupter

Chris Evans x reader

requestedi have no clue if requests are open but how about one when dodger interrupts them while they are …. having sex && chris gets frustrated and the reader laughs! ✨.. love your work btw!💋.

wc: 3.8k

warnings: fluff, smut (unprotected), mentions of a daddy kink (but not really), swearing, chris getting frustrated (emotionally and sexually lol he’s dramatic), dodger being a lil pain in the behind(think of that video from Chris’ twitter of him howling)

a/n: thank you so much for requesting! i loved writing this and i hope you enjoy reading it.

my masterlist - fluff/smut/angst blurb, headcanon, and oneshot requests for chris and sebastian are open! if you already requested something, i’m working on it right now :)

You’re pleasantly awoken by the cold, damp nose of a particular furry friend who, obviously, wished to bid you a good morning. 

“Dodger,” you giggle softly, slowly waking up as the dog continues nuzzling his snout into the crook of your neck and leaving sloppy licks of affection on your cheeks. “Alright, boy, alright,” you say, managing to push him off of you before sitting up in bed. 

You glance at the clock on the bedside table, which reads 07:47. Dodger finds his way to lie beside you and rests his head in your lap with a little yawn. Your fingers sift through the silky softness of his fur as he sighs happily in your comforting touch. “Didn’t feel like running with Dad this morning, hm bub?” you ask, and his deep brown eyes gaze up to look at you in response. 

Every other day or so, weather permitting and before you’d even wake up, Chris would slip out of bed and go for a walk or run with Dodger. Most mornings, you’d sleep right through until he returned home. But on days when you woke up earlier, you were met with a cold empty bed without Dodger or Chris. The gentle pittering of rain against the window lets you know that your plans for a hiking day with Chris would be postponed, but it’s only when you feel a deep rumble of thunder around you that you realize it’s definitely storming. 

The bedroom is then lit up by a zap of lightning outside the window, followed by another, much louder this time, crack of thunder that seemed to shake the entire house. Dodger jumps at the sudden sound, lifting his head from your lap and looking around, and you jump, too. You gently slide out of bed, wearing nothing but one of Chris’ old hoodies, and walk over to the window where you draw back the curtain to see the torrential downpour that is falling from the sky. 

“Oh, you good boy,” you chuckle, crouching down to ruffle the fur just behind his head and Dodger’s response is a happily wagging tail. “Yes, you know better than to go out when it’s pouring like this. If only your Daddy was as smart as you,” you mutter to the pup before kissing him in between his ears at the very top of his furry little head.

You then decide, since there’s no way you could fall back asleep while the Mighty Thor is clearly showing off, it’s about time you had some caffeine, so you make your way downstairs with Dodger following close behind.

warnings: slight angst, eating a cupcake in bed(not any kind of food play kink tho!), insecure chris, smut (blowjob, unprotected sex - pls be smart),,, i haven’t written anything in so long please let me know of any other warnings i should put omg

no beta/loosely proofread so please excuse errors!

June 13th. A morning like any other. Except, a very special occasion. Chris’ birthday. But not just any birthday: his 40th, to be exact. You know he was not looking forward to reaching that number, but you also know, being the little social butterfly he is and the way he loves his family, he’s looking forward to celebrating with you and with them.

A little less than a year ago, you’d just reunited with Chris for the summer. A little less than a year ago, you were having to hide your relationship from practically everyone. Now, both your parents and his parents, all of his close family members, and his close friends are all going to be at the Evans’ house to celebrate the big day. But first, you plan to celebrate with him this morning and you get him all to yourself

So, while he’s still sleeping, you sneak out of bed and down to the kitchen where a batch of cupcakes you’d made the night before were sitting, just waiting to be eaten by the birthday boy. Dodger watches you get out of bed and leave the room and, thankfully, opts to stay on his pillow on the floor at the foot of yours and Chris’ bed. 

Down in the kitchen, you anxiously gather what you need. You grab the cupcakes from the fridge, take the top off the container, and your nose is met with the sweet aroma of the sugary treat. You’re proud of how they’ve turned out and you’re excited for Chris to try one. Carefully, you take one cupcake out of the tin and grab a candle to poke into the top of the chocolate frosting. Then, you light the candle, grab a blue napkin that has a silver number 40 on it, slide it underneath the cupcake, and carry it back up to the bedroom.

By the time you arrive back to the room, though, Chris’ eyes are just beginning to open.

“Jeez, y’scared me. I don’t like wakin’ up without you next to me…” his sleepy voice begins to say, sitting up in bed more and the sheets fall from his body to expose his bare chest, littered with intricate ink designs, a chain hanging from his neck, and a layer of light hair. But he interrupts himself when he sees the little treat in your hands. 

“Aw, Sweetheart,” he smiles bashfully.

Haaappy birthday to you,” you start to sing quietly, but when you see his face and neck flush pink, you instead save him the embarrassment.

Climbing onto the bed beside him, you sit on your knees and hold the cupcake out in front of him to give him a chance to blow out the cute little smiley-face candle. He invites you closer to him, placing two firm hands on your waist.
