《Dangerously ~Chris Evans~✅》Twenty Eight
Advertisement
Livie, feeling as though she were living in a different world, moved through the motions of checking in for her flight to London. After Chris had told her to leave she had drove back to New York where once home she basically shut down. Her heart was broken and she was mad at herself for allowing this to happen. She should have stayed away from Chris. She tried to convince Dex that he needed to see their mother. But he wouldn't budge. She tried to convince him to go to London but he refused that too. So instead of Dex going home with Livie JJ insisted she come.
"Do you think we'll see Tom Holland?" JJ's voice broke Livie out of her daze.
"Huh?" Livie turned her head to look at JJ in the airplane seat next to her.
"Tom Holland, you know Spider-Man?"
"Why would we see Tom Holland?" Livie asked confused.
"He lives in London, you're from London." JJ shrugged.
"Lots of people live in London. I doubt we'll see Tom Holland."
JJ wrinkled her nose with a pout.
"I'm going to try to sleep." Livie pulled an eye mask from her bag.
"Ok." JJ gave her a smile.
Livie hadn't been home in so long yet it almost felt like she had never left. Her mother had a driver pick her and JJ up at the airport and in no time they arrived at Livie's childhood home.
"This is where you grew up?" JJ whispered in awe gaping at the huge brick mansion the car stopped in front of.
Livie shrugged and pushed the car door open.
Diane met them at the door and told them to freshen up for dinner. Livie felt out of place in her old room.
"Knock, knock." JJ stood outside of Livie's room. "You ok?" She asked.
Livie nodded, "Weird being here."
"I can imagine." JJ crossed the room and sat down on the bed. "Your mom seems nice."
Livie laughed, "She's tolerable I suppose."
JJ smiled, "It's all going to be ok Liv. All of it."

Livie's smile fell, "I know you're trying to make me feel better and I love you for it."
But the truth was nothing was going to be ok. Or well at least nothing would ever be how it was before. JJ had ended things with Sebastian. Whatever "things" were between them. JJ wouldn't even hang out with the group anymore. Things were stressed between Dex and Livie. He had been upset when she told him she was flying home. Chris hadn't spoken to Sebastian since he and Livie had broken up which Sebastian blame Livie for. So Seb wasn't talking to her either. And Chace was trying to be there for Livie and she just pushed him away. The group had fallen apart, Livie had lost Chris and her father was dying. She desperately wanted to go back to the beginning of the year. Before her birthday and when things started with Chace. Back to when things were just simple. But she didn't see how they'd ever get back there.
After a stuffy dinner Livie returned to her room where she laid in bed staring at the ceiling. JJ who hadn't slept on the plane and was jetlagged had fallen asleep instantly. Livie couldn't shut her brain off and when it was time to get up the next morning to go to her fathers she had had 2 hours of sleep. Maybe.
3 hours after waking up Diane's driver was pulling up at a sprawling countryside home. The home that belonged to her father, his new wife and Livie's sister. Swallowing nervously Livie climbed out of the car. JJ slipped out behind her looping her arm through hers.
"I'm here and this will be fine." JJ whispered as they walked up the pathway to the oversized front door.
Livie knocked hesitantly and they waited.
A butler, Livie assumed, answered the door.
"Hi, I'm Livie, O-Oliva, my father should be expecting me." Livie stuttered nervously.
"Of course Ms. Hart." The butler smiled at her warmly, "Follow me."
He took them through the home and into a formal sitting room.

"He'll be down shortly." The butler informed them before shutting the French doors and disappearing.
"Of course we'll have to wait." Livie rolled her eyes.
"Liv this is crazy. I mean this is like Wayne Manor." JJ was wide-eyed.
"What's Wayne Manor?" A little voice from behind the overstuffed arm chair asked.
Livie and JJ exchanged a look before Livie peeked around the chair. The little girl looked so much Livie when she was younger, Livie knew it must of course be Sofia.
"Hi." Livie said softly, "Are you Sofia?"
The little girl nodded.
"What are you doing back there?" Livie arched an eyebrow.
The little girl shrugged.
"Sofia!" A woman burst through the doors stopping short when she saw Livie and JJ.
"Livie." The woman looked at her a smile slowly taking over her face.
"Yes ma'am?" Livie looked at JJ who shrugged.
"Does your father know you're here?"
"Um the door man said he would be down shortly."
The woman laughed, "Of course. Sorry that's Roman."
"And you are?" Livie asked.
"Oh! Of course! I'm Maggie, I'm your father's wife." She said softly.
"Oh." Livie turned looking at the little girl who was hiding behind the chair.
Maggie followed Livie's gaze, "I see you've met Sofia." She smiled.
Livie nodded, "And this is my best friend JJ."
JJ smiled hello.
"All my favorite girls under the same roof?" Livie's father entered the room. Livie was scared what to expect knowing her father was battling cancer. But the man in front of her looked healthy and happy.
"Dad?" Livie's brow furrowed.
"Livie." He held his arms out for her. "You look so beautiful. So grown up."
Livie timidly crossed the room and into her fathers embrace. "I thought you were sick. Mom said-"
"Oh your mother." Charles Hart rolled his eyes. "I'm in remission. The last tests came back and I'm still cancer free."
Livie frowned confused, "No mom said the doctors said you weren't doing well." She whispered.
Charles let out a booming laugh. "Hush that talk. I am fine. Your mother is a little over dramatic."
Livie looked at JJ utterly confused.
"Sofia." Charles called.
"Daddy!" She smiled finally coming out from behind the chair.
"There is someone I want you to meet. This is your older sister, Olivia."
Sofia's eyes lit up and she pointed towards the fireplace mantel. Livie looked and for the first time noticed the framed picture of herself and Dex when they were kids.
"Yeah." Livie nodded, "That's me."
"Pretty." Sofia smiled shyly.
"Thank you." Livie's heart melted. "You're very pretty too."
Sofia smiled and grabbed Livie's hand, "Come. Play tea party."
Chris was 100% focused on work. After Livie had dropped the bombshell on him that she had slept with Chace he had to first talk himself down from going and kicking Chace's ass. Then he decided he would just erase Livie from his memory. Everything that he had that reminded him of her he immediately disposed of. It would have been easier had she not stayed at his house and met his family. He didn't give anyone the details on what exactly had happened he just said they couldn't work it out. It was hard keeping it all in and not telling his mom or Scott the entire story. But deep down he didn't want them to think ill of Livie. Which pissed him off even more.
Weeks went by and Chris didn't think about Livie as much. And as much meant that he stopped dreaming about her. Well at least he didn't dream of her every night. He still thought about her all day. He had stopped talking to Sebastian. Seb was too close to her and cutting everything out that was even remotely tied to her was the only way he could get over her. The weeks turned to months and it never got easier. He still found himself waking up thinking of her. She was impossible to get over.
