Tumblr media Tumblr media
 The sun was out in Boston, the air warm for the spring which meant you were already outside just after breakfast, Arlie adamant on riding her bike and jumping on the trampoline. She’d always loved the outdoors and being active, so after a laugh you followed her outside with Wesley strapped to your chest, he was fast asleep after nursing, so you expected a quiet few hours from him. You sat on the outdoor swing on the edge of your patio a soft knitted blanket across your lap, a perfect few of the small barn and pond further down the yard, arguably your favourite view to admire each day. Chris eventually came out after cleaning up after the waffle making that took place in the kitchen that same morning. Chris’s favourite view by far was the one he saw right now, his little girl giggling away as her blonde hair flew around as she jumped on the trampoline. Then his eyes moved to you, cuddled up with his boy, your eyes lighting up in excitement anytime Arlie said something to you, your hands rubbing Wes’s back to keep him sleeping. Of course, he loved the view his home provided, but his family was his favourite, and they were something special that he would always cherish and hold close to his heart
“Daddy see me jumping!!”
You turned to smile at Chris after Arlie yelled to him
“I see you princess, getting higher and higher every time!” 
He chuckled making his way over to sit next to you, his heart warming as you lifted the blanket so he could get under it 
“Thank you for cleaning up after breakfast my love” 
His lips pressed a kiss to your cheek before letting you lean on his shoulder a content hum escaping your lips 
“I should be thanking you for wrangling these two monsters every morning, they have the best mother in the world”
“Are you trying to make me cry Christopher?”
He laughed rubbing your arm gently 
“No, no, I just want you to know how much I appreciate you, and this life we get to have together, our little family is-it just makes me so happy, and I know I say this to you a lot, but I couldn’t imagine experiencing this with anyone else”
Each time he expressed his feelings, even if he said it to you one hundred times, it was enough to get you teary eyed and emotional, so pressing your lips to his to convey just how much it meant to you, was all you could muster in this moment 
“I love you, and I am just and thankful for our family-”
“Momma, Daddy!! Been callin’ you for ages!” 
Chris was the first to laugh at his daughter’s sass, she definitely got all of that from you
“Oh you were huh?”
“Mhm.”
She stood in front of him, hands on her hips as if she was getting ready to scold him, you were trying hard not to smile at her antics, especially when she huffed dramatically and climbed up to sit with Chris, her head leaning on his chest 
“What were you saying baby, I’m listening now” 
“Was gonna ask for help with my bike, but I comfy now, don’t wanna move” 
Chris tucked her under the blanket, letting out another quiet laugh as he held her to his chest 
“Well, if you’re comfy then you stay right there duck, we can go bike later” 
If Chris wasn’t listening closely enough, he would have missed the soft “thank you daddy” that fell from her lips. This was Chris’s favourite view in the whole world, he had his family all bundled under a blanket on the porch swing that already had many memories for you and Chris. He wouldn’t trade this in for anything in the world, he’d be crazy if he said he didn’t want maybe one more little one running around, but there was time for that, he was more than happy with his little family right now and so were you, that was all he could ever ask for.

Rough Patch HeadcannonđŸ„đŸ’› (Little Duck AU)
Pairing: Dad! Chris Evans x Momma Evans (Female Reader)
Summary: things aren’t always as they seem in the Evans household, and currently, it’s tougher than rough
Warnings: angst, mental health, arguments, fluff towards end:)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Back on bedrest once again after you got home from your appointment with Chris, Arlie was down for a nap so it made it easier for you to hide away in your shared bedroom, not wanting to talk to anyone or talk about anything
You didn’t think this pregnancy would be easy, especially with baby boy growing everyday and getting bigger and bigger, but the aches, the constant pain you were in mixed with a very active toddler were draining you more than you’d ever admit
It started 3 weeks ago when you noticed you felt down, you’d experienced this feeling before after giving birth to Arlie, the dark cloud swimming around over top of you, the weight on your shoulders, that on top of the unbalanced hormones with baby boy, were cause for disaster
It also wasn’t fair that you’d been so snappy with Chris recently, he never took offence to it, never got angry, he knew you were in loads of pain, he just wished he could take it from you
“Okay
please be good so I can wash my face baby..”
The plead seemed to work momentarily before he pushed roughly on your ribcage, a frustrated groan leaving your lips before angrily tossing your face products to the side
You couldn’t help the sudden sobs that escaped as you tried hard to hold it together and not have a total breakdown, Chris shoving the door open in worry a few seconds later
“Hey, hey, whoa honey
what’s going on?”
“I can’t t-take this pain anymore, all it is and a-all it has been is p-painful and I c-can’t even do anything a-anymore!”
Chris almost didn’t know what to say to try and console you, you didn’t stay in the bathroom long enough for him to hug you, opting to move back and get into bed
“What can I do to help you in this moment sweet girl?”
You shrugged and it was like all resolve left you
“Nothing. I don’t want anything, there’s nothing that can help, I’m giving up, I want to just be in pain in bed, alone and god I don’t fucking know!”
The minute you heard a soft whimper and a quiet “momma
?” your heart stopped and you cursed quietly to yourself, looking over to see Arlie, mr.duck clutched in her arms as her bottom lip wobbled, her eyes glassy
“Hi my love
come in”
“Why you yelling momma
? don’t like it.”
She walked close enough for you to help her on the bed, her little arm covering your bump and she rested against you
“I’m sorry duck, I didn’t mean to scare you, Momma just isn’t feeling well that’s all
”
Chris watched quietly sitting at your feet, his hand squeezing your ankle gently
“I s’owwy you not feeling well momma
I can help you feel better!”
A tired smile showed on your face as you rubbed a hand over her head, the frustration leaving your body only to be replaced with that sinking feeling of sadness and dread
“I bet you could my love..”
Chris could see the sudden drop your mood, leaning over to tickle Arlie’s little feet, a giggle filling the room
“Come on baby girl, let’s go make some of Momma’s favourite snacks, maybe do some art for her?”
Arlie sat up nodding her head before kissing your head softly
“Bye momma! Be back soon!!”
She ran off towards the hallway, Chris couldn’t help the laugh he let out watching her excitement at the idea of helping cheer her momma up, truth be told he wanted to help his wife in any way he could
“I’m sorry i’m being such a horrible wife and mom..I don’t know how you still stand to be around me”
It was instantaneous how his hands reached to hold your face, your eyes shifting to meet his
“I love you, I love you so much I would do anything for you, you know that
right?”
After you nodded he continued
“You are the best mother to Arlie and our little guy, and you are the best wife a man could ever ask for. I know things have been so incredibly hard, and you’re in a lot of pain, so much so that I wish we could swap places because seeing you hurting like this and not knowing how to help you is killing me..”
You hadn’t even realized you’d started crying until he swiped his thumb across your cheeks
“I-I’ve been so horrible to you
”
“You’ve been frustrated, in pain and going through a really rough time, I haven’t taken any of that to heart because I know that isn’t you
what I do want is for us to work together to help you get comfortable, and to help this beautiful brain of yours feel better..”
Chris moved to pull you into his side, his lips pressing a few kisses to your temple
“DADDY ‘HUWWY UP I NEED HELP!!”
You let out a soft laugh, the first one in a few weeks and Chris joined you, leaning down to press a kiss to your lips
“I missed that sound, we’re gonna take care of you and figure this out I promise you, now I believe little miss and I have some work to do to get our favourite girl feeling better”
“I love you Chris
”
He stopped at the door, turning to send you a smile
“I love you more sweet girl”
It was nowhere near over, you were nowhere near that happy and bubbly woman you’d once been, and that was okay. For the first time in 3 weeks you felt a little less down, the weigh on your shoulders eased the slightest amount. Although it still hurt and you were still struggling, knowing you had your little girl and your ever so sweet husband in your corner, made things a tiny bit lighter
and you’d take itđŸ€

Unexpected & Unwelcomed
Chris Evans x Pregnant!Wife Reader (Little Duck AU đŸ„đŸ’›)
Summary: You’d left the bad parts of your past behind you after you’d med Chris and moved your career and your life to Massachusetts. So what happens when someone you’d long forgotten runs into you at your workplace’s annual spring gala? 
Warnings: talks of past abusive kinda, unwanted advances, slight mentions of violence, minor injury, protective daddy bear Chris
A/N: Thank you to the anon that requested this last night, I loved writing this, and absolutely love the idea of overprotective Chris when it comes to Momma.

It was your workplaces annual charity gala and despite being 8 months pregnant, you and Chris had come to mingle amongst your coworkers, and support a good cause. Although you would admit, the pain in your feet and the slight discomfort in your back you’d been feeling all day almost put a cancel on plans. You were happy you ended up coming, the atmosphere was fun, the snacks were good, and the baby had been quiet. Chris had left to use the washroom and grab another drink, so you sat at your assigned table, glancing around and admiring the decor, a voice suddenly drawing you out of your daze

You were happy you ended up coming, the atmosphere was fun, the snacks were good, and the baby had been quiet. Chris had left to use the washroom and grab another drink, so you sat at your assigned table, glancing around and admiring the decor, a voice suddenly drawing you out of your daze
“How’s your back doing momma?”
You smiled looking up at Chris who’d returned to your table, setting down some more snacks for the two of you to share
“Surprisingly not bad tonight, although little miss is enjoying pushing on my ribcage and bladder, she’s like a pin ball in there tonight”
He let out a laugh before leaning down to be eye level with your bump, his hand rubbing in circles 
“Be quiet in there princess, this is an important night for your momma”
She kicked against his hand almost in retaliation and you laughed, shifting to get more comfortable
“Already rebelling against her daddy and she’s not even here yet”
Chris frowned in faux disappointment before sitting up and crossing his arms 
“We are gonna have a stern talk when she gets here” 
“You do that my love” 
He smiled sending you a wink as he leaned over to kiss you softly, an annoyed groan escaping you when he pulled away 
“I’ll be back, I need to use the bathroom
again”
Chris moved to get up, but you placed a hand on his shoulder 
“Stay, I’ll be fine, back before you know it!”
You placed a kiss on his lips, walking away from the table, he kept his eyes on you until you made it safely to the washroom. Thankfully you were the only one in there, so you finished your business checked yourself over and left, while you were walking back you got distracted, lightly bumping someone’s shoulder 
“I’m so sorry!”
The minute the person turned to face you, your stomach churned, hands automatically resting protectively on your bump the colour draining from your face 
“Well, this is a pleasant surprise, Y/N, nice to see you”
You swallowed; your throat dry as you attempted to get control of your impending emotions
“Thomas.” 
“That’s all you have to say? After all those years together?”
That made you roll your eyes, the audacity this man still had even after everything he’d done to you 
“Yes, it is. Have a nice night.”
You turned to walk away into which put you in Chris’s eyesight, but Thomas grasped your wrist tightly in his hand to stop you from going any further, you silently hoped Chris could see the panic in your body language. The baby clearly unhappy with the sudden shift in your mood and situation, kicking roughly a few times 
“Let go of me you asshole!”
That only caused him to squeeze tighter, is nails digging into the inside of your wrist as you winced, that was gonna leave a mark for sure 
“You want to call me an asshole after you ruined my reputation? I don’t think so. You fucking owe me bitch”
“I don’t owe you shit!” 
You pulled your wrist back hard, cursing under your breath as it threw you off balance, thankfully a familiar pair of arms caught you and kept you upright. The familiar tom ford cologne filling your senses, Chris turning to check on you, scanning his eyes over your face, then falling to your wrist, the discoloration beginning to show 
“You know, I’ve been waiting to meet you for a long time.”
Thomas laughed crossing his arms 
“Oh yeah? Why’s that?” 
You’d never seen Chris this angry before, and despite the anger, his touch was featherlight, making sure to be extra gentle with you
“So, I could do this
”
Before you could stop him, Chris flew at Thomas sending a punch square at his face, his nose cracking from the force of the hit, Thomas groaning in agony
“I know exactly who the fuck you are, and I have been waiting for the chance to put you in your goddamn place. You’re lucky that’s all you got.”
“Baby come on
”
You tugged the sleeve of Chris’s suit jacket, and he stepped towards you, keeping his eyes on your ex who was bleeding on the floor 
“I’ll sue you for this!”
“Go ahead, I’d like to see you try, and let me be clear, you ever so much as even look at my wife again, I don’t care if it’s a glance, anything, I so much as hear you’ve said her name, I’ll fucking kill you.” 
You pulled on his jacket again, pulling him away from the hallway and over to the table, collecting your things, all you felt was anxious in this moment, the room felt too small, the dress you had on uncomfortable 
“Honey...?”
Chris’s voice sounded blurred as you frantically looked around the room, as soon as he noticed this, Chris lifted you into his arms bridal style and found your office, setting you down on the couch near your desk
“Hey, Hey, breathe honey
breathe, follow me, you’re okay...”
He placed your hands over his chest where you could feel his heartbeat, taking a few minutes to catch your breath and calm down, his hands moving to rub your belly softly, the baby moving a bit at the feeling of her father’s hands resting above
“I’m sorry
that was...”
“A lot? Yeah, I bet baby, but it’s over now, he will never get close to you or our little girl again okay? I will always make sure you two are protected”
You nodded finally letting the smallest of smiles show on your face 
“How is your hand?”
He shook his head 
“Don’t worry about my hand, you’ve got a big purple bruise on your wrist I’m more concerned about”
“It’s okay, doesn’t hurt much, we can ice it once we get home?”
Chris agreed, before checking on the little bean, and making sure you felt safe enough to leave the party and get to your car. The entire way home he kept checking in, keeping his eye on you, an icepack for your wrist when you got home, followed by some of your favourite cravings, and a cheesy comedy movie pulled up on the TV in the living room
“Thank you for protecting us, and always making sure we’re safe” 
Chris leaned down to place a kiss on your lips, his thumb rubbing across your cheekbone gently 
“I love you girls, I will always do whatever I can to make sure you’re both safe, happy and healthy”
You smiled leaning into him when he sat next to you
“We love you too, more than you know” 
Wrapped up in a pile of blankets, snacks now spread out around you is how you ended off your night, even when the darkest parts of your past came back to hurt you, Chris would be there to keep you safe and remind you how loved and cared for you’d always be. You and his little girl were his everything, and if he had to break a few noses and egos to keep you both safe, he’d do it without question, because no one goes after his little duck and momma.

Sick Day for Duckie
Dad!Chris Evans x Wife!Reader (Little Duck AUđŸ„đŸ’›)
Summary: Chris is set to head out for a week to film some content and attend meetings for ASP, but when Arlie gets the flu
and you get the flu, despite your convincing that you’ll be fine to look after her, Chris needs to make sure his girls are taken care of, and feeling better
Warnings: talks of the flu, light swearing, very fluffy and sweet dad and husband Chris
A/N: I had an anon suggest this request and I thought it was really cute, so I decided to do a little something with it! Thank you for all the love and support with the Little Duck AU, im having so much fun writing it<3

Tumblr media Tumblr media
 It was almost like within the span of a few hours both you and Arlie had caught the flu, you were trying to think about where you two could have caught a virus, the main thought that came to mind was at a family members birthday that had passed a few days ago. Poor little duck had a nasty sounding cough, a stuffy nose and now was extra clingy to you and Chris who was supposed to leave for Washington in 4 hours. You’d started to feel sick this morning and now as it was nearing lunch you could feel your throat start to ache, and your sinuses were beginning to get sore, just what you needed when your husband was about to leave for a week. Nevertheless, you took some cold medicine and powered through the day, getting laundry done, prepping some easy meals for the week so you wouldn’t have to cook. Once you had finished a couple chores while Chris was packing you went in to check on Arlie who was down for a nap, but when you got to the door her soft whines of discomfort were quite clear. You frowned walking into her room, her little hands reaching out to you 
“Momma..not feel good”
“I know baby, let’s get you changed first and then we can have a little cuddle, okay?”
She sniffled and you blinked a couple times, the pressure in your own head starting to get worse, you picked Arlie up and placed her on the change table, putting her in a clean diaper and getting her some cozy pyjamas. She had a few coughing fits throughout getting her ready, her eyes a little red, she really was uncomfortable. You picked her up and held her to you, her head laying on your shoulder as you picked up her favourite yellow blanket and covered her up. Chris was hesitant on leaving knowing Arlie was sick and you knew he needed to leave for work, so if he found out you sick now too, he wouldn’t go. 
“Okay little love, let’s go get some medicine and then we can watch a show”
“Icky momma
no want”
You frowned rubbing her back gently as you walked down the hallway towards your bedroom, all the cold medicine in the cabinet of your bathroom
“It’s icky duck, but I promise it will make you feel better”
She sniffled coughing again as you walked in the room and Chris frowned seeing his two girls walk in, his eyes moving from Arlie to you realizing you might be sick too. Arlie however noticed the suitcase on the bed and tears sprang to her little eyes 
“Daddy l-leaving
”
He came over placing a hand on her cheek to catch a few tears 
“Just for a few days little duck, I promise I’ll be back soon”
She sniffled, no doubt the crying making her sinuses even more irritated before reaching out to Chris so he could hold her 
“pease’ don’t l-leave daddy
don’t wan’ you to go!”
Your heart broke watching her grip Chris’s sweater, holding on like he’d disappear into thin air if she let go, you frowned moving to the bathroom to get some medicine, sifting through the shelves until you found Tylenol for yourself, and children’s advil for Arlie. When you walked back into the bedroom, Chris had abandoned packing, and was under your big duvet with Arlie nestled on his chest, her eyes now closed
“Honey, you need to leave soon, she’ll be fine I promise”
He just smiled at you, flipping open the covers on your side, inviting you to join them
“You really didn’t think I’d figure out you were getting sick too angel? C’mon now...”
Despite your raging headache you rolled your eyes at him, getting into bed next to him, your body relaxing as it was wrapped under a giant blanket, and curled up next to Chris who was basically like your own personal heater
“You really needed to go on this trip baby, I can take care of our girl even if I’m not feeling well”
“You could sure, but I don’t want you to do that, Arlie’s got a bad enough flu, and now you’re getting it too, so there is nowhere else I need to be but right here taking care of you two.”
You smiled tiredly, not up for arguing with him, you knew deep down you’d never win that, Chris set Arlie down beside you so he could change into sweatpants and get rid of the jeans he had on. Arlie’s eyes snapping open as her hand reached for his, Chris halting his movements as his little girl looked up at him with the saddest expression he’d ever seen
“stay daddy, pease’ no leavin’
” 
He leaned down to press a kiss to her forehead, making a mental note to check her temperature as she felt a little hot 
“Hey now, I’m not going anywhere little duck, I just need to change so I can be comfy like you and momma okay?” 
She lifted her pinky finger up towards him tiredly 
“pinky p’omise?”
“pinky promise baby”
They linked their pinkies together before he kissed her forehead one more time, getting up to change and quickly climbing back into bed. Arlie climbed over to get back up onto his chest, which then allowed Chris to maneuver you into his side, ensuring the two of you were comfortable 
“Thank you for staying to take care of us”
Chris’s hand moved to rub your back comfortingly as you felt yourself start to get sleepy 
“You never have to thank me for that baby, it’s my favourite job in the world, get some sleep and I’ll make you two some soup when you get up”
You wanted to reply back but sleep hit you quicker than you thought, and Chris chuckled quietly, little did you know, he was planning on cancelling the trip the moment he heard Arlie’s discomfort after her nap, seeing you sick too only allowed him to cancel faster. He’d always put you two first no matter what, if you and the little duck needed him, he’d drop everything to look after his girls, he made sure you both knew that every chance he could.

*Le Gasp* is momma pregnant again!! Oh my goodness what was Chris reaction to the second pregnancy!
Baby Ducks
Chris Evans x Wife!Reader (Little Duck AUđŸ„đŸ’›)
Summary: What's better than one duckling? Two of them, and with the help of Arlie, the Evan's family just grew by 1 more little Duckie
Warnings: non, just fluffy sweet adorableness, Arlie is a sweet bean
A/N: surprise everyone...the Evans family is growing <3
Word Count: 1,074
Tumblr media Tumblr media
For the past couple weeks you'd been feeling a little off, and being someone who was so in tune with their body, it wasn't hard to guess what could be the reason. Whether it was your sudden irritability to the smallest things, your stomach hating the though of certain foods or your sensitive and slightly painful breasts, you determined it might be a good time to take a pregnancy test. You and Chris had been talking about having another baby over the past few years, and with Arlie turning four in a couple months, you'd argue it was essentially the perfect time to add another baby Evans to the mix. You eventually psyched yourself up and wandered into the bathroom to grab one of the many extra tests you had around after a few pregnancy situations
“Whatever happens, it’ll be okay” 
You said that to yourself twice, a mantra you had with Chris when you were trying for Arlie Mae. Once you took the test you set it down and made a timer for 3 minutes, as per the instructions on the box. As you sat in the bathroom you couldn’t help the smile that spread across your face, the thoughts of two little ducks running around and experiencing life together was enough to bring early tears to your eyes. Taking a deep breath when the timer went off you stood up and looked at the test, a hand covering your mouth when you saw the very clear pregnant 4+ on the screen.
You were having another baby.
-
You’d spend about 4 days getting ready to tell Chris, who luckily hadn’t figured out anything was wrong, and of course you got Arlie to help you with the surprise
“Arlie baby?” 
You wandered down the hall to her playroom where you could hear blocks being built 
“In here momma!”
Her little voice called back to you as you found your way to the door, her face scrunched in concentration as she attempted to build a massive tower out of rainbow build blocks
“Hi little duck, that’s a nice tower”
“Thank you, momma, is so big!”
You laughed 
“It sure is, think you can pause and help me with something?”
She paused her movements nodding her head and smiling, she loved helping you with everything, whether it was baking, feeding the ducks out back or helping you put away groceries
“I can help momma!”
You chuckled at her enthusiasm reaching for her hand before bringing her into your bedroom, a yellow t-shit lying flat on your comforter
“Okay, momma has something to tell you, but we can’t tell daddy, okay?”
“Like a ‘supise?”
You smiled kissing her forehead 
“Yeah baby, a surprise” 
You picked up the shirt and kneeled down to her height, getting her to put it on, it had two ducklings on the front of it and said “Duckling Number Two on The Way, Big Sister Arlie” in black writing, with a thick enough font to read it without any issues
“Do you remember when we talked about brothers and sisters? How momma carried you in my belly?”
Arlie nodded waiting for you to continue 
“Well, you’re going to be a big sister Arlie, momma’s got a little baby in her tummy right now”
You watched the gears turn in her little head as she thought over what you said before giggling excitedly, reaching to put her hands on your still flat stomach
“There a baby in here momma?”
Her eyes were full of curiosity, and you just about cried watching her hug your waist to press her ear to listen
“Yeah honey, there is, your little brother or sister” 
“I love ‘em momma” 
You wrapped your arms around her and pressed a kiss to her cheek 
“Oh, you’re so sweet my little duck, come on, we have to go show daddy your shirt”
That caught her attention, and she clapped her hands leaving your room with you in tow behind her. Chris was down in the kitchen figuring out lunch for his two girls when he heard the familiar sound of her feet on the hardwood
“Daddy!!!”
Arlie rounded the corner, and you stood back, remaining by the entryway to the kitchen, a bright smile on Chris’s face when you both entered the room
“Hey little duck! Whatcha been up too baby?” 
Arlie giggled before standing in front of him 
“Me and momma have ‘supise for you!”
“Oh really?”
He looked up to you and sent you a wink, you were trying to hold back tears at this point, the excitement coursing through you 
“Show him your shirt Arlie”
Arlie looked down at her shirt, pulling it out a bit for him to read it, as soon as he did, his head snapped up and his gaze met yours, tears finally making their way down your cheeks 
“You’re kidding!” 
“Surprise handsome...”
Arlie looked between her parents before letting out a squeal 
“Momma has a baby in her belly daddy!” 
Chris bent down to pick her up and press a kiss to her cheeks, holding her close as he made his way to you 
“She does huh? You’re gonna be a big sister aren’t you little duck” 
When Chris made it to you, he pulled you into his chest, hugging you tightly to him, pulling back to press a firm kiss to your lips, he was over the moon, a second baby with the woman of his dreams? 
“I can’t believe it angel, another baby
”
You let out a tearful laugh, wiping your eyes, Arlie’s hand coming to do the same thing, which only made you want cry more 
“I love you
I can’t wait to experience this with you Chris”
He kissed your forehead, still trying to wrap his head around the news 
“I love you too, both of my girls, we’re gonna have another baby!”
Arlie laughed when Chris started peppering both yours and her face with kisses, his beard tickling your skin, the three of you enjoying being this close to one another, sharing the joy in the moment before Arlie spoke up 
“Momma and daddy got two duckies now!”
Laughter filled the kitchen, and you held Arlie close to you, she was right, you two had your first little duck, and now you were getting another one. Four years after the light of your life came into the world you were now celebrating the impending arrival of the second. The rest of the day spent sharing stories of baby Arlie, looking through albums, and of course the resurrection of overprotective dad to be Chris, though in your opinion, he never really left.

The loud ringing in your ears seemed to get louder and louder the more aware and awake you’d become, still strapped in the driver’s seat, your neck stinging painfully, and judging by the seatbelts tight hold on you, it had burned your neck. You knew for certain you had blacked out, but for how long? That was still undetermined. Everything ached, your ribs, back, not to mention your head which had started to pound repeatedly, but what snapped you out of your haze were Arlie’s cries from the backseat
“M-Momma!”
“I’m here baby
I’m gonna get you out my love, are you hurt?”
“Y-yes, owie momma”
Biting your lip to keep from crying out yourself, you unstrapped the seatbelt, sirens now filling the space around you as you managed to get out and limp over to open the back door. When you got it open, Arlie reached for you, eyes bloodshot, but thankfully she looked okay, a few scratches on her arms and cheek from broken glass 
“Momma you bleeding”
“I-I know my love, I’m okay, we’re okay though”
You pulled her into your arms before sitting on the asphalt against the back tire, if there was anything you were thankful for right now it was for Volvo and how amazing the cars they made were, all you could see was a mangled mess of metal from the other car that hit you, but yours, albeit messed up, still looked somewhat decent
“Want daddy, I want daddy momma!”
An ambulance, followed by fire and police showed up, paramedics getting out and jogging in your direction, but you could feel yourself fading slowly
“D-Daddy will be here soon baby..p-promise..”
“Momma? Momma!!”
You had tried to fight the feeling you’d been getting while sitting against your car with Arlie holding onto you, but her voice was the last thing you’d heard before passing out, and it looked like you weren’t going to be waking up
-
Arlie was crying and shaking your arm trying to get you up, she was frantic and at only 4 years old she didn’t know what to do, she was terrified as she watched you fall and hit the pavement, her screams causing two paramedics to run over 
“Hi honey, hey little one, can you tell me your name sweetie?”
Arlie looked towards the young medic who crouched down to her while her partner rushed to your side to make sure you were breathing 
“Help Momma pwease!”
“Alright honey, we’re gonna help your mommy, but can you tell me your name...?”
“A-Arlie”
The medic smiled 
“Hi Arlie, I’m Jess, it’s nice to meet you” 
Jess paused before a few other people came to get you situated on a stretcher, which only caused more panic to build in little Arlie’s chest 
“Arlie, we are going to ride with your mom in the ambulance, okay? We’re going to check out your little cuts and get them nice and clean, okay?”
Jess held her arms out slowly and Arlie was quick to enter her embrace so she could pick Arlie up and walk with her behind the stretcher 
“Want my daddy”
“We can call him when we get inside okay?”
Arlie nodded and they both got into the back of the ambulance and watched as you were hooked up to a few monitors and had begun to get IVs placed along your arms all while Arlie had to watch you lay silent, and that is what scared her the most, she’d never seen her momma like this at all
she was too quiet
way too quiet
-
Chris had just put Wesley down for bed when his phone went off again, ringing from the countertop in the kitchen downstairs, he’d heard it go off once a few minutes ago, and couldn’t get too it, so he jogged down the stairs, turning the phone to see an unknown number
“Hello?”
“Hi is this Mr. Evans?”
Chris had started to feel anxious before he’d picked up the phone but now that feeling started to rise 
“Yes, this is him, can I ask who’s calling?”
“This is Jess McNeil, I’m a paramedic with the Newton County fire department, I’m a paramedic, there’s been an accident involving your wife and daughter”
There is no singular word or feeling to describe just how Chris felt in this moment, the sheer panic as he moved over to open his laptop, sending his mother a series of texts, the urgency in them telling her to come to the house as soon as possible. If Chris ended up going into Boston tonight, he didn’t want Wesley to be in a hospital around sick people, nor did he think he could hold it together enough for his son
“I-Wait how’d this happen, are they alright? Where are you headed, are they hurt bad...?”
“Mr. Evans, I assure you we are doing everything we possibly can for your wife right now, I can’t discuss all the details over the phone, but she is in critical condition as we speak, we are heading towards Massachusetts General Hospital, your daughter is fine, minor injuries”
Chris went to ask another question or try to get any more information on your condition when he heard his sweet little girl’s voice come through the speaker 
“Daddy, you there daddy?”
He sniffled quietly, his emotions no longer being held back
“I’m here baby, I’m here Arlie, are you okay duck?”
“I scared daddy, can you come get me and momma pwease
don’t wike it here
too loud”
The fear in her voice and slight tremble in speech making his heart clench tighter in his chest 
“I’m going to come see you and momma right now, you’ll be okay baby I promise, you stay with Jess until I get there, okay? I promise, I love you so much Arlie Mae”
“I love you daddy”
For the next couple minutes while Chris gathered a bag with clothes and pyjamas for himself, Arlie and you, they’d stayed on the phone until his mother arrived at the house, only then did Chris hang up and make his way into Wesley’s room to kiss his forehead whispering a quiet ‘I love you so much’ before going down to explain everything to Lisa and the night his little family was in for
-
Chris had never driven into Boston as fast as he did tonight, his car screeching into the parking lot at Mass Gen as he slid it into park, the emergency room lights casting a hue amidst the puddles of rain in the parking lot. He’d slung the bag of clothes over his shoulder before jogging to the entrance, it didn’t take him long to find Arlie first who was sitting with Jess playing with a puzzle and some blocks 
“Oh, thank god
”
Arlie turned and jumped up instantly taking off towards Chris 
“Daddy!” 
“Hi baby, oh god, thank you god
you’re okay baby”
He took her into his arms instantly as she clung to him, Chris never wanted to let her go, but pulled back after a few minutes to inspect her cheek were a band aid lay, covering one of the bigger cuts
“I’m so happy you’re okay Arlie, I was so worried”
Chris pressed a few kisses to her forehead before turning to smile at Jess who’d made her way over to say goodbye as her team was going back out 
“Thank you so much, for looking after my girls
I can’t thank you enough”
Jess smiled and nodded 
“Of course, Arlie is a great storyteller, and if it’s any ease to your mind, your wife was awake when we arrived, I’m sure they’ll have a room for her soon”
Chris nodded and sent her a small smile, thanking her once again before he and Arlie chose an uncrowded corner to sit in, letting her change into some pyjamas before she curled up next to Chris, opting to watch a show quietly on his phone while they both waited for any news on your condition, right now it felt like they’d be waiting all night. 
-
You were more than aware of the situation you were in, the hospital bed far less comfortable than your own, the steady beeping from the monitor attached to your heart, the drip of the iv’s every few seconds, you felt like shit, there was no sugar coating that at all. Thankfully you didn’t end up needing surgery at all, and you’d been getting settled into this room when a knock at the door paused your movements to get comfortable 
“Mrs. Evans, I have some guests here to see you, they’ve been waiting very patiently”
You knew immediately who it was and nodded, still not trusting of your voice just yet. A tired smile on your face when the door opened further and Arlie stood there with Chris, her little eyes lighting up instantly 
“Momma!!”
She ran to you, and you could already feel the tears spill gently down your cheeks, everything was so overwhelming 
“H-Hi my baby”
Chris came over shortly after, tears in his eyes as well
“Arlie, remember, gentle with Momma for the next while okay?”
She turned and nodded at her dad before holding your hand gently, Chris moving to the other side to lean down and press a kiss to your forehead
“Hi handsome, sorry for the little scare”
He couldn’t help the quiet laugh that escaped him, knowing you were trying to bring some slight humour to the situation, it was too hard to look at this any differently. Arlie had managed to climb into the bed beside you, laying her head on your shoulder gently, just wanting to be close to you
“Momma, can we go home pwease?”
“Well, my love, I can’t go home just yet, I’ve got some pretty big owies I need looked at, but you and daddy can go home anytime” 
You could see Chris tense slightly out of the corner of your eye, you knew he wouldn’t want to leave, but what you didn’t expect was Arlie to shake her head, and hold the hospital gown you had on tighter in her hands, a soft yawn spilling out 
“I stay if momma stays
”
You smiled watching her closer her eyes as her voice trailed off, this was the last place you’d ever thought the two of you would end up, but you were more than grateful you’d gotten the worst of it, you didn’t know what you would have done if this was Arlie in your place instead of you 
“The uh doctor, told me all your injuries, but said we should be able to leave in a few days...”
“Chris?”
He looked at you, the anxiety swimming behind his tired eyes, you could see right through him every time, but this was the first time you’d ever seen him this scared
“I’m okay baby, I know you’re scared, and anxious
I want to let you feel those feelings, but I’m right here, I’m okay, Arlie is okay”
He nodded leaning his head on your thigh as he gripped your hand gently, squeezing it to find more comfort 
“I thought I lost you both
and-and then when the medic told me you were in critical condition, I thought I was l-losing you Y/N
god when I got that call
my ma is home with Wes, I drove straight here”
“I can only imagine how that felt, truth be told I really don’t remember much other than getting Arlie out of the car
god that car saved our lives Chris”
Chris pulled his head back to look at you once again, just taking everything in, almost as if you’d disappear, and you almost had tonight 
“I love you, and I love Arlie so fucking much I need you to know that, and I need you to know I’ll make sure you both get better, and get any help you need, no matter what it takes” 
Bringing a hand up to cup his cheek softly you nodded, no words needed to be exchanged as Chris leaned into your touch, feeling grateful that soon he’d be able to take his two favourite girls home. He never ever wanted to feel what he had tonight, and how he felt when he got that call, so as he watched his wife and daughter sleep, he called Lisa to fill her in, and let her know everything would be okay, he’d make sure of it.

Wesley’s First Word (little duck au)
pairing: chris evans x momma evans x wesley scott
summary: well Wes has finally said his first word, I wonder what it could be?
warnings: none :)
a/n: wesley is finally starting to blabber more sounds and he can finally say a word, so why not blurb itđŸ„°
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Wesley was now about 8 1/2 months old and getting more and more animated by the second, he was so curious and such a funny little character, getting to see his personality as he grew something you and Chris were loving getting to experience.
Arlie was out with Nana Lisa for the day, they were having a spa day which also gave you and Chris a chance to relax and spend some extra time with Wes for a few hours. You let Chris sleep in and got Wes up making some pancakes and cutting up some fruit for him to eat, a smile on his face as he watched you move about the kitchen
“my handsome boy, is that good?”
He babbled back some nonsense and you smiled leaning down to press some kisses across his face
“oh yeah? wow, well tell me how you really feel this morning buddy”
“dada!!”
In an instant you froze eyes widening as your brain tried to decipher if you’d just heard Wes say his first word or not
“Wes what did you say baby? Did you say dada?”
“dada! dada!”
“oh my god..”
You smiled letting out a little noise of excitement before pressing kisses all across his face yet again, Wesley letting out giggles
“Oh my love, daddy’s gonna be so happy!!”
“Why’s that?”
Chris had walked into the kitchen, hair dishevelled, eyes tired yet loving as he came over to press a kiss to your lips
“Morning honey”
“Morning baby, I was just saying you’d be so happy because-”
Before you could tell Chris anything Wesley beat you to it
“Dada, dada!!”
You watched as Chris froze before smiling, you could see his eyes glass over a little just as you’d expected because when Arlie said her first words, albeit them being “mama” he cried for 45 minutes over it
“Yeah buddy that’s me!”
Wesley clapped his hands chanting ‘dada’ over and over as Chris picked him up out of his chair, pressing a kiss to his cheeks before holding him to his chest
“He said his first words baby
”
You came over to rest your head on his shoulder admiring your two favourite boys
“He did my love, guess we know who his favourite person is”
That earned a big laugh from Chris as he shook his head pressing a kiss to your temple
“Well i’ll take it, just remember he’ll wake me up 6 times a night now chanting dada as opposed to Arlie chanting mama now”
Nodding you chuckled reaching a finger out to swipe a bit of hair back out of Wes’s face, a yawn escaping his lips, you knew it was almost time for his mid morning nap but you weren’t ready to let go of Chris and your little boy just yet. Wesley had said his first word and though Chris had gotten a bit emotional you knew after he put Wes down for a nap, he’d be coming to find you to really let it out, and you’d be there for him, as long as he needed.
Chris really was the definition of worlds best father.

Welcome Home Arlie Mae (Little Duck au)
pairing: chris evans x wife reader (momma e)
summary: you’ve finally been cleared to bring arlie mae home, and you and chris couldn’t be happier
warnings: slight mention of post partum struggles, but mostly just very sweet goodness
a/n: i’ve been wanting to write this for a while and i hope you guys enjoy this💜
Tumblr media Tumblr media
 Today was the day you and Chris had been waiting for since you’d found out you were expecting your first child together. After 30 hours in labour followed by four days in the hospital, you were finally bringing home your little baby girl Arlie Mae Evans. She was quite tiny weighing in at five pounds three ounces, part of the reason you’d spent a few extra days in the maternity ward. Despite your reassurance to Chris telling him he could go home to sleep in your own bed, he declined, stating he was much happier here with his girls. Lisa and your mom had been amazing, getting the house ready for your arrival, meals prepped and ready so you wouldn’t have to worry about cooking, Lisa had even taken Dodger back to her house for a few days to let you three get settled and accommodated to your new lives with a little baby.
Arlie truly lit up Chris’s entire life from the moment she was born, to watching her breastfeed for the first time, and now as he watched you tuck her gently into her car seat, a soft beige blanket over her as it was the beginning of April, and it was still a bit cold out. You were definitely still in some pain, and you knew it would be a few months before you were feeling back to normal and like yourself, truth be told you were willing to go through all the highs and lows because of how special your little girl was to you already. 
“Alright, you ready to go momma?”
Smiling you nodded, reaching over to grab the baby and hospital bag you’d packed, Chris was quick to interject 
“I’ve got it honey”
You watched as he slung it over his shoulder before picking Arlie up with his free hand and reaching for your hand with his other 
“Thank you my love”
“No need to be thanking me y/n, I should be thanking you for bringing our girl into our lives”
You felt your cheeks flush at the sentiment before walking with Chris towards the exit and to find your car in the parking lot. Arlie stayed fast asleep the whole time, you had read that newborns tend to sleep a lot and eat a lot, so you figured she’d stay sleeping until you arrived home, or at least you hoped. 
Once you found your SUV, Chris made quick work of putting the bags in the front passenger seat, handing you the car seat with Arlie for a few moments before taking her from you and making sure she was clicked safely into the base that sat tethered in the backseat. Chris had made sure to order the top of the line for everything when it came to Arlie, even getting it professionally installed so he knew she would be extra safe.
“I can’t believe we’re going home as a family of three now
”
Chris looked back and sent a smile your way before he got out of the back to press a kiss to your forehead 
“Me either, it still feels like a dream to me” 
Nodding in agreement he helped you into the backseat so you could take your place beside Arlie, he helped buckle you in too before closing the door and getting into the car. Glancing back once more at the two of you in the backseat, he started the car and took off towards home, only this time like you said, you were going home as a family of three.
-
The house smelt like spring, fresh flowers placed neatly around your space, some being gifts from friends and family, you never failed to feel spoiled with all the love and warmth both of your families provided for each other. For the first few months the very gorgeous nursery you and Chris spent months on would remain empty until Arlie was old enough to sleep on her own. She’d sleep in the bassinet you’d bought to sit right next to your side of the bed, making it easier for feedings and keeping an eye on her.
As soon as you’d gotten home Chris wanted to show her around, which let you get settled on the couch, leaning back into the soft cushions which after laying in a stiff hospital mattress, felt like lounging on a cloud 
“Here is the kitchen, where daddy and momma are gonna make you lots of yummy food and snacks
you can have whatever you want princess”
Listening to Chris as he walked around with Arlie tucked into his arms bringing a smile to your face, you could hear him taking her throughout your home to show her around, even if she was too little to really know what was going on at all
“This is the living room, we have lots of comfy spots for you baby, and oh look, there’s momma over there, she’s so beautiful”
Arlie squirmed slightly and let out a little noise, Chris smiling down at her and you swore to yourself you’d never seen him more in his element than he was right now 
“You excited to see momma?”
She made a little whimper before slowly waking up and you knew she was getting hungry 
“I think she’s excited to see my boobs babe...”
Chris laughed shaking his head before bringing her over to you, waiting until your shirt was pulled up enough before giving Arlie to you, who was quick to latch on and start eating. She had no problems latching or eating from the moment she was born, but you knew you’d probably opt to bottle feed and breastfeed to give Chris an option to feed her, as well as any family or friends that would come over.
You smoothed a finger along her head gently watching as she ate quietly, you couldn’t believe how perfect she was, and how 9 months of waiting could bring you so much joy. It was no secret that both you and Chris were extremely happy in this moment, you weren’t ignoring your doctors notes about postpartum depression and other postpartum hormone drops, Chris was more than prepared to step in and help when needed, and you knew the signs to look out for. For now, though, in this moment you just wanted to stay right where you were, with your little girl, and with your favourite man in the entire world, you had all you could ever want and more right in front of you, and it was a memory you were forever going to cherish. 
"I love you both so much, thank you for bringing Arlie into our family"
Leaning your head onto his shoulder, careful not to disturb the newborn as she ate you peered up at him, eyes filled with nothing but adoration
"Thank you for supporting us every step of the way, we're very lucky to have you baby, we love you so much"
A kiss being pressed to your lips was enough to seal the moment you two shared, and knowing there would be many more where that came from, you hoped these little milestones and Arlie memories would stay within your mind for as long as you both were around.

Sick Baby Duck (Little Duck AUđŸ„đŸ’›)
Pairing: Chris Evans x Wife Reader (Momma E) x Arlie Mae
Summary: After waiting it out for the day to see if Arlie would get better, but when she doesn’t it’s time for a trip to the hospital so your little duck
Warnings: a bit of angst, mentions of hospitals and sickness, sad Arlie, worried momma and Chris
a/n: happy Monday everyone, I hope to get to fics out today since it’s my one day off from classes, so stay tuned for that! Things are very weird for me right now and I kind of feel like ass but it’s fine! I also feel like this sucks and my writing it bad again LOL 
Word Count: 1,416
Tumblr media Tumblr media
 Arlie’s been sick a handful of times so you and Chris are no stranger to the common cold or flu that would spread throughout your household, but this was something you had yet to experience as parents. Arlie had been coughing all day but as time went on it turned into something very nasty and unmanageable, she was running a high fever, and if she wasn’t sleeping, she was in the worst discomfort and pain you’d ever seen her in. She was down for a nap once again after taking some more medicine, both you and Chris sat in the living room trying to figure out your next plan and what to do with your little sick baby
“I think we should go to the hospital, she’s not getting better and it’s really worrying me”
You nodded
“I think that’s smart, I’ll pack a bag with a few things, and we can go”
“No, you’re not coming”
The urge to smack Chris was strong when he decided to say that, but you crossed your arms and sent a glare his way
“Excuse me?”
“You’re pregnant, heavily might I add, and going into a building with lot of sick people is not a good idea”
You shook your head 
“I love you Chris, but I am not staying here while you leave and take our daughter to the emergency room. Not a fucking chance. So, I’m gonna go pack the bag, and bring a few masks with me, and that’s final.” 
Getting up from the couch you heard the sigh he let out, knowing he wouldn’t argue with you too much, you decided to pack a few things and change into a comfier outfit than what you had on. Chris was only looking out for you, and you knew that, but there was no way in hell you were going to sit at home and wait around while Arlie was headed to the emergency room.
-
Despite getting to go to the hospital, Chris made you wait in the car which caused another argument but in the end you decided to give up and wait for them there, he was supposed to call you when they were being seen by a doctor so you could come in, but he sent you photos of him and Arlie cuddled up in the waiting room with a fuzzy blanket over the two of them. Arlie’s eyes were red and puffy from crying. It was only about 45 minutes until Chris called you, putting two masks on you quickly exited the car and found your way through the waiting room and over to the nurse standing with Chris and Arlie
“m-momma hold pwease”
You frowned at the sadness in her voice before reaching out to take her into your arms 
“I’ve got you baby, we’ll get you feeling better”
The sounds of her coughs and the stuffiness in her nose made your heart break, little whimpers escaping her ever few minutes. You were so thankful it didn’t take long to get in to see a doctor, and it ended up being Arlie’s regular paediatrician Dr.Charlie
“Well, this is a surprise, hi guys, what’s going on?”
Chris looked at you before sitting up straighter in his chair 
“Arlie’s been getting sick the past few days, and today it’s gotten worse, she has a pretty nasty sounding cough, and I’ve noticed her struggling to breathe sometimes, that with a fever that will not go away, the only time I feel like she isn’t uncomfortable is when she’s asleep”
Dr. Charlie frowned nodding her head as she looked at Arlie who was resting against your shoulder, making a few notes before grabbing her stethoscope 
“Alright, well that does worry be so what I am going to do is listen to her chest and her lungs to see if I can figure out the reason behind what’s got her feeling so icky”
You nodded and sat Arlie up which she wasn’t too happy about, a pout on her face 
“Hi Arlie, can I listen to your chest sweet girl?”
She nodded and Dr. Charlie began to take a listen, getting Arlie to take deep breaths if she could, listening intently before going through a routine check-up, a few coughing fits had her doctor frowning 
“Alright, well her fever is certainly high but luckily enough I can administer some medication to bring that down a bit, I’d recommend giving her a lukewarm bath when you get home, I know it’s late, but it will help.”
You nodded, Chris placing his hand on your knee, squeezing it for some comfort
“I think she has an upper respiratory infection mixed with a sinus infection, so I am going to send you home with some pretty heavy medication for her because I don’t want this to get any worse, it’s pretty severe as it is now, but I also don’t think we need to keep her here overnight”
“Okay, thank you do much Dr. Charlie, we really appreciate it”
She sent you a small smile 
“Of course, now I will say with you being far along with your pregnancy, and your due date coming up soon, you shouldn’t be as involved when she’s this sick, we just can’t risk anything with the baby”
Even though you knew she was going to suggest that it still broke your heart, and you couldn’t help the tears that lined the bottom of your eyes 
“I understand...”
Dr. Charlie sent you a sad smile before Chris got up to take Arlie from you, pulling his mask down for a moment to press a quick kiss to your forehead. You collected the medication from Arlie’s doctor before taking a few more notes from her and leaving the hospital, it wasn’t the most amazing news in the world, but you were more than happy to have a solution to get your baby feeling better. 
-
Chris could tell you were in a bad mood once he put Arlie down to bed after her bath and a few doses of her new medicine, you were all pouty in bed rubbing some oil on your very large belly, a nightly routine that Chris often loved to watch you complete 
“Baby?”
You looked up at him 
“Hmm?” 
“I know you’re upset with the news from the doctor, but I hope you know it’s only to keep you safe and keep the little man healthy
I hate seeing you so down”
You shrugged moving to get your cream, but Chris beat you to it before applying it to your legs, massaging the tensions out of your calves and then down to your feet, even if you were frustrated you couldn’t help the happy sighs that left your lips as his knuckles pushed into your heel 
“I just feel helpless, I know she’ll be okay because she has you to take care of her, but I have never sat out like this
”
He hummed in response 
“I know, but my mom and your mom are coming over in the morning to help out and you can still be around her baby, you just need to wear a mask to keep you and the monkey safe, okay?” 
“Okay”
Chris leaned forward to press a kiss to your lips, a goofy smile on his face when you both pulled back 
“How about you lay on your side, and I’ll give you a back massage to make you feel better honey?”
You pretended to think about it for a second 
“I mean I can’t say no to that
”
His laugh filled the room for a few seconds before you got comfy, and he started to work on all the sore spots that littered your upper and lower back. The news from tonight wasn’t the news any parents would love to receive but you knew Arlie had the best dad in the world and Chris would be the best nurse for her, not to mention the loving support of both your mother-in-law and your own mother. You couldn’t help but feel a little helpless at the fact that you were told to stay away from your baby girl so you wouldn’t get sick, but you knew deep down with the due date of your baby boy coming up, you and Chris didn’t want to risk a thing. So, if you had to settle for watching Arlie get better at a bit of a distance, you’d do just that, no matter how hard it would be.

Hands Off My Momma! (Little Duck AUđŸ„đŸ’›)
Pairing: dad! Chris Evans x Momma Evans (Female Reader)
Summary: Everyone at the Middlesex County DA’s office knows Matthew, and I mean everyone, and sadly so do you. He will not leave you alone, no matter what you say do, so what happens when Chris and your daughter stop by your office for lunch? Let’s just say Little Duck is ready to fight for her Momma, whatever it takes
Warnings: slight angst? Matthew is a butthead, protective Arlie and Chris
A/N: This took me way to long to get out so I apologize, I am going to try and get a head start on some of the other long requests, so be on the lookout for those! This is short and bad but happy reading!!
Word Count: 834
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The office was unusually quiet today, though you wouldn’t complain considering you’d just finished up your last major case for the next few weeks, so you’d take quiet over the insanity it usually was. The only thing that wasn’t so quiet were the knocks that hit your door, part of you already knew who it was, but you wanted to see if ignoring him would get him to leave 
“There’s my favourite lawyer in the building!”
You rolled your eyes, four seconds away from filing a workplace harassment claim against him. Who’s him you might ask, well that would be Matthew Wheeler, one of the assistant district attorneys that worked at your building 
“What can I do for you Mr.Wheeler?”
He took a seat in front of you, yet your eyes remained on your computer screen, going through a few last minute filings 
“Wow, so formal, I thought we were on a more personal level at this point”
“Nope.”
He hummed drumming his fingers on your desk which by the sixth time made you look at him, your expression one of annoyance 
“Ah there she is, so I was thinking, me and you, lunch?”
You smiled eyes lighting up as you watched him get his hopes up
“Oh, wow really?”
“Yeah really, want to go?”
Putting a hand over your heart, you stared him dead in the eyes, it was honestly quite comical how easily gullible this man was 
“No. I’m married, now go away.”
He scoffed crossing his arms as you once again waved your engagement and wedding band in his face 
“So? That doesn’t deter me.”
“Well, it should.”
You got up grabbing the keys to the copy room since you had some papers waiting for you at the printers, when you walked around your desk, Matthew grabbed your hand tightly in his making you stop 
“What the hell do you think you’re doing?”
“Just one chance, married or not, one chance, one lunch please.”
You scoffed and before you could say anything you heard little feet running down the hall and all of a sudden Arlie was sending little punches to Matthew’s leg
“Hands off my momma!!” 
You almost wanted to laugh but quickly picked her up shushing her softly as her little fists clenched, her eyes narrowed at the stranger that was bothering her mom
“I was going to say the same thing, but my daughter beat me to it.” 
Matthew rolled his eyes going to leave and Chris stopped him 
“You ever bother my wife again, I don’t care what form, I’ll ruin your life.”
Arlie crossed her arms watching him leave before uttering 
“Stupid meanie head.”
“Arlie Mae
”
She looked at you and smiled innocently 
“Hi momma!”
After laughing you covered her face in kisses before sending a smile to Chris before he pressed his lips to yours
“My knights in shining armour, what are you two doing here?”
“Wanna go for lunch momma?”
You thought about it for a moment 
“You know I am kind of hungry, and you two are my favourite lunch dates
just give me a second to pack up”
You put Arlie down on the ground before pulling Chris in for a hug 
“Thank you for that, I’m going to talk to Michelle about it tomorrow and get him fired”
“Good, I’m glad, you’re welcome honey” 
You packed up some files to take home, stuffing your laptop and any other small knick knacks you needed in your bag, sending a note to your assistant to grab the paperwork at the printers, thankfully it wasn’t super important 
“Momma you ‘weady to go?”
“I am little love, where are we going to eat?”
Arlie took one of your hands while Chris took the other and together you walked out of the building and down to the car, Arlie humming the whole time as she thought about what she was hungry for. Right as you finished buckling her into her car seat she clapped 
“Sushi and stringy noodles!” 
You chuckled, knowing she was talking about the small sushi and yakisoba restaurant you three loved, and if you were being honest, sushi sounded super good right now 
“That sounds perfect my love”
You got into the passenger side of the car, and Chris got in soon after, reaching to take your hand when you were both settled, the car starting up 
“Thank you for the lunch surprise, I love you”
He smiled, bringing your hand up to his lips to press a kiss to your palm 
“I love you, and I love surprising you, even if I have to threaten someone to do it”
Your laughter filled the car as you began to drive off towards downtown Boston, you were so grateful for this little family of yours, and especially to your spitfire of a little girl. Arlie was just like her daddy in that sense, they’d always protect you no matter what, and just because she was a toddler, didn’t mean she didn’t pack a mean punch.

Momma’s Special Surprise For Arlie (Little Duck au🐣)
pairing: Momma Evans (Female Reader) x Arlie Mae x Chris Evans
summary: Momma has a very special present for Arlie, and she got some help from some very special friends
warnings: none just fluffy goodness
a/n: i’m really excited about this little fic, i’ve been wanting to write it for a while so here it isđŸ«¶đŸ»
Tumblr media Tumblr media
You had been planning this surprise for a few months now, Arlie was absolutely gutted when you couldn’t go see Harry Styles in concert when he was in the United States. Despite her best smiles, you knew it gutted her not being able to see her favourite singer, but thankfully you’d been talking to Chris for a while trying to plan something. Harry would start his last leg of Love on Tour in May, and you reached out to him right away asking if there was any chance he could find you tickets to watch his shows in London at Wembley Stadium.
~
“I really want to do this for her Chris, I know London is far, and it’ll be expensive
I think it would make her really happy”
Chris nodded, his arms around you as you sat out on the back patio
“Why don’t we make a family trip out of it?”
“Really?!”
You were elated, eyes wide as you looked at him, a chuckle escaping his lips
“Yeah why not, we haven’t gone anywhere in a while, Arlie’s well behaved, Wes is still small enough to keep close to us, you and duck can go to the shows and Wes and I can get up to some boy stuff”
Laughing you pressed a kiss to his lips, clapping in excitement because let’s be honest, you were just as excited to be going to see Harry Styles live on tour
“I love you, thank you baby”
“Anything for my girls”
~
That brought you to today, setting up the living room with snacks for an afternoon tea party at Arlie’s request, Canyon Moon playing softly throughout your home, Wesley down for a nap.
“Arlie my girl, everything’s all set up, and Momma’s got a surprise for you”
She came in the room helping Chris carry over the tea which was really organic apple juice
“S’upise for me momma?!”
“Yeah for you baby”
Arlie smiled and Chris set the drinks down on the table before she sat cross legged beside you, her eyes bright and full of excitement
“So momma and daddy have been planning something for us as a family, we were thinking of going away on a trip”
“Wike we did the beach?”
You nodded
“Exactly baby, but we aren’t going to the beach this time”
“Where we go momma?”
Chris had pulled out his phone to start filming secretly
“Well we are going to a city called London baby, it’s in a country called the United Kingdom”
Arlie blinked raising her eyebrows
“That the one with the big clock momma?”
“Yep, Big Ben baby, you remembered”
Arlie smiled, they’d been learning about landmarks at school, and she’d made a mental note about Big Ben, asking Chris to go through photos of it every afternoon after school
“Momma has a surprise for you though and why we are going”
“What momma!”
You swiped a loose strand of hair behind her ear leaning forward to press a kiss to her forehead
“Well, who’s your favourite singer?”
“Harry Styles!”
She’d finally managed to get the R’s in Harry down after a long time of talking about him
“Mhm, well Harry and Momma have been talking, and we’re going to go see him in concert”
“MOMMA REALLY?! REALLY MOMMA!!”
You laughed as she squealed jumping up and starting to clap
“Yes my love! He wants to have you out, and he wants to say hello to you too!”
“We gonna see Harry daddy!!”
She ran over jumping in his lap to hug him, his arms holding her to his chest
“Yes we are duck! You excited? Was this a good surprise?”
“So good! I’m so happy daddy!!”
He pressed a few kisses to her cheeks before she bounded over to you and jumped into your arms
“Fank you momma”
“You’re so welcome my baby”
She remained in your arms beginning to talk about all the idea she had and everything she wanted to see, what she wanted to say to Harry. This was priceless to see, her pure excitement and happiness at the fact that she would be seeing Harry after thinking she’d need to wait for a while. You’d do anything for your Arlie girl, and felt more than grateful to be able to experience these beautiful moments with your family.

đƒđźđœđ€đ„đąđ§đ  đ‚đĄđžđœđ€ - 𝐈𝐧 🐣
ʚheadcannon
ʚ chris evans x momma evans x arlie mae
ʚ no warnings
ʚ well i’ve listened and heard what you’ve been missing, so here’s a little check in with our little duck
i’m working on getting some more motivation to write for this au so all i ask is for a bit of patience but i see you all missing it ;)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Arlie Mae is now 6 years old and absolutely LOVING kindergarten, she’s making so many friends, helping her teachers and starting to gain some more independence!
Wesley is a year old now, he’s walking, running and of course saying a few words here and there, though he hasn’t started talking as much as they were hoping for his age so it’s something Momma and Chris are keeping an eye on!
Momma E is working from home part time as a lawyer still, she’s taking on cases every so often and working from home has made it a lot easier to manage the kids and now that Chris is home full time they have lots of time to spend together!
They now run a full time animal rescue and sanctuary at their home! They have a small group of staff who work at the barn and have some who stay in the apartment they have above the barn for overnight watch! Though they themselves are very hands on as well!
They have another dog now too, Dodger is still as energetic as ever, and now they have a cocker spaniel named Lucy, who Arlie absolutely adores!
Arlie horseback rides now during the week, she is OBSESSED with horses and loves her riding lessons coming home and saying “momma it was so fun!” “i jumped!” “we should get a pony!” and she’s been begging for her own pony, which is something you and Chris have been talking about recently.
Wesley goes to daycare, the same as Arlie three times a week to get some exposure to being around other kids and to get used to what it will be like eventually be like to go to school! Though he isn’t talking a bunch yet he is super expressive and adores painting just like his sister!
Wesley also loves anything with his dad, Chris takes him out for little father and son dates and he just loves it. He would rather spend all day everyday with his father than doing anything else!
All in all the family has been doing super well and loving the settled down life, there have been talks of maybe expanding their family but for now they’re enjoying the quietness of the country, and themselves.

Momma & Arlie’s Day Out (little duck au)
pairing: momma evans x arlie mae
summary: you’re in need of a few things before you go back to work, so why not take your little girl who also happens to be the best shopper ever&lt;3
warnings: none very cute :)
a/n: slowly getting back on my little duck kick, sorry i’ve been neglecting it, i just haven’t felt like writing for chris much these days, which is unfortunate because i can’t change my username LOL rip
Tumblr media Tumblr media
After lots of conversations between you and your husband Chris you’d finally decided to slowly get back into working or at least advising for the time being. You’d stepped down from being a district attorney and opened up your own firm, using your home as your office it was nice to stay close to the kids and of course to Chris. You weren’t totally ready to be fully immersed back into the office and the legal world just yet, truth be told you didn’t think you ever would be, but for now you could do some part time advising and contract work.
That’s where you found yourself this morning looking at your closet and making donate piles of things you didn’t wear anymore or just didn’t fit into. Arlie was home from daycare today after they’d emailed you about a nasty bug going around, so you figured what better than to take your baby girl shopping with you. Arlie had always had a keen eye for fashion and was the best little shopping partner, so you knew it would be fun for both of you.
“Arlie honey?”
Looking through her playroom and then her bedroom you couldn’t find her, she was quite the hide and seek player so you knew there could be a plethora of spots she could be in
“Well don’t you look beautiful”
Smiling you spotted Chris leaning against the kitchen island, his eyes dancing around your figure
“Why thank you handsome”
Chris came over pressing a kiss to your lips
“Arlie is watching Bluey at the moment if you’re looking for her”
“I am! I’m taking her shopping with me today”
He laughed knowing the two of you could do some serious damage when together
“Don’t give me that look! I need my baby to help me pick out a few things!”
“Mhm
”
Smacking his chest lightly you laughed making your way towards the living room, a smile on your face when Arlie looked your way
“Hi momma!”
“Hi my baby, I have a question for you”
She pressed pause on the remote so she could look up at you
“I need some help picking out some new clothes for work, can you come with me?”
She clapped her hands letting out a noise of excitement
“Yes momma! I can help you shop!! I love shoppin’ momma!”
“I know you do baby, just like me huh?”
She nodded before getting up and going over to her toy corner to grab her little purse and her shoes that rested by the back door before meeting you in the front hallway
“Daddy I’m going shoppin’ with momma! See!”
Chris nodded crouching down to press a kiss to her cheek, fixing her laces on her shoes
“You and momma are gonna go crazy aren’t you?”
Arlie shrugged before crossing her arms and sending Chris an innocent looking smile
“Momma always says if you don’t go crazy, you not shoppin’ right”
You couldn’t help the laugh that bubbled in your throat, a hand over your mouth as Chris raised an eyebrow in your direction
“That’s right my girl, so let’s shop till we drop!”
“Bye bye daddy, love you!”
Chris shook his head
“Love you girls too, be safe”
-
When you and Arlie shopped, you could really go for hours, she had helped you pick out some new suits, all colourful because in Arlie’s eyes “momma needs to be a rainbow.” So it was needless to say that Chris was not surprised about the amount of bags you two had brought back, Arlie having her own, and of course you’d picked up a few things for Wesley and Chris. Anytime you and Arlie hit the mall up you usually ended up buying a few things for everyone
“Daddy we got so much!!”
“I can see that baby, did you have fun with momma?”
“Mhm, gonna go put my bags away!”
Chris laughed watching her run towards her room, bags hitting her little legs and the walls as she went, his eyes then moving back to you
“Did you have a good day honey?”
“We did! I picked up a few things, tried not to go too crazy..”
It wasn’t as if money was a problem for your family, you and Chris both had good careers that brought in the money and the two of you were more than grateful to live a very comfortable life, but you still every so often got worried that Chris would get uncomfortable with your’s and Arlie’s shopping days.
“Baby, you can go as crazy as you’d like, Arlie too, you both are my world, Wesley too so if you want to go shopping and lose your mind in the mall go for it honey”
Smiling you leaned up to place a kiss on his lips
“I love you so much
so much that I may have gotten you a few little things..”
“I don’t doubt you did baby, I love you more”
You took a few more minutes of quiet with Chris before Arlie was yelling to show her dad everything she’d gotten, and Wesley had now woken up and was babbling through the baby monitor. You wouldn’t trade this life for anything, and the more time you spent with your babies and Chris, the more you thought about maybe adding one more addition to the family
but that would be a discussion for another day

Happy International Women’s Day Blurb (Little Duck au🐣)
pairing: Chris Evans x Female Reader (Momma Evans)
summary: after a rough couple of days, you’re still not out of the woods, but that doesn’t stop Chris from spoiling you and little Arlie for International Women’s Day
warnings: none, mentions of pain, but just fluffy goodness
a/n: here is Women’s Day blurb 2/2! These were kinda fun to write, and I do have three full length fic ideas that will be coming out either today or within the week so keep an eye out for those! sending lots of love đŸ«¶đŸ»
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Giggles, baby noises and laughter had lulled you out of your sleep around 8:30 in the morning. You made note of the pestering pain that could still be felt throughout your body, thankfully it didn’t seem to be as bad as it was last night, but you were still slow to get up
Gently putting your feet on the hardwood, you slid your slippers on and grabbed the corner of your bed frame to life yourself up and out from the comforts of your blankets, a pained groan escaping you
Chris had told you to yell or text him to help when you needed it, but being the stubborn woman you were, you wanted to do everything yourself, though when you reached the top of the stairs, you felt too weak to attempt it yourself
“Honey?”
Almost instantly Chris appeared at the bottom of the stairs, Arlie following
“Momma! Come on Momma! Daddy has pwesents!!!”
Chris laughed shaking his head
“It’s supposed to be a surprise duck..”
“Oh
s’upise, it’s a s’upise Momma!”
You laughed, Arlie was horrible at keeping secrets and surprises, but it was the cutest thing ever, when something didn’t really need to be kept hidden of course
“Well i’d love to come see the surprise baby, i’ll meet you in the living room okay?”
Arlie nodded before running off another laugh escaping you, though you were trying not to laugh too much due to chest pain, it would never be possible in your household
Chris was already making his way up the stairs to you, a smile on his face despite the worry in his eyes
“You should have called, I would have helped you out of bed baby..”
“You already have to help with so much
I just needed to do it this morning”
He nodded, not offering a rebuttal because he’d be the same if the roles were reversed, and man did he wish they were
“How are you feeling? Any pain still?”
“Somewhat okay I suppose, still cramping in my stomach area, my chest is really bothering me amongst other things
slow and steady I guess”
Chris hummed in response before helping you get to the bottom of the stairs, offering to help you over to the couch but not before stopping to see Lisa and Wesley who were having a little sink bath
“Hi my handsome boy, oh look at you! You having a bath with Nana? hmm?”
Wesley offered a gummy smile your way, his hands splashing, more than happy to see his mom as you leaned down to press a few kisses to his little cheeks
“How are you this morning sweetheart?”
You sighed shrugging in Lisa’s direction
“Still not great but not horrible, I can’t thank you enough for all your help”
“Nonsense, I love being here and seeing my grand babies as much as I can, besides someone’s gotta make sure Chris holds it together”
You nodded laughing once again, wincing slightly at the tightness in your sternum, Arlie’s yelling didn’t allow you to think about it too much, as you were off to the living room, taking a spot next to her
“Look Momma, Daddy got us flowers!!!”
You widened your eyes at her excitement, another smile tugging at your lips, Chris coming over and sitting next to you
“Happy International Women’s Day to two of my favourite women”
Leaning over you pressed a kiss to his lips thanking him, Arlie squealing in excitement at her flowers and of course a few other little gifts Chris had got her
“I also have one more thing for you..”
He pulled a small box out from his sweater pocket and handed it to you, eager to see you open a gift he new not only would make you happy, but had more meaning now than it did before
Sliding off the top were two Volvo keys nestled gently amongst some little pieces of cut up tissue paper
“Chris
.”
“I know, I know it’s extravagant and a big gift, but I know how much you loved that car, how it kept you and Arlie safe
and Volvo reached out to me wanting to help
so I wanted to replace your SUV that was written off after the accident, now I know our family will always be safe with you driving one of these again”
Chris was right, you’d never had a better car than your XC90, safety wise it was the best car for your family, but knowing Chris had gone out to replace your car and the company itself wanted to help, was enough to bring tears to your eyes
“Thank you so much honey, you have no idea what this means to me
I-I don’t even have the words right now, Arlie, Wes and I are so lucky to have you
”
Arlie noticing your tears came over to give you a hug, making sure to be extra gentle, and you held her to you
“Love you Daddy, love you Momma”
Hugs shared all around you didn’t know where to start in thanking Chris for this gift, but he would go to the ends of the earth to make sure you and his family were safe and taken care of, no matter what was thrown your wayđŸ€

Not A Typical Weekend
.(Little Duck au)
pairing: Chris Evans x Female Reader (Momma Evans)
summary: it’s back to the hospital you go, only this time, it may not be the news you’re both looking for

warnings: angst, mentions of anxiety, some tears, very panicky Arlie, comfort of course <;3
a/n: i was feeling angsty so here’s this
i promise i won’t torture this family anymore, I guess this may be a two parter?? considering I kinda left the ending open...? also I hate my writing again so maybe thats why I kinda cut it that way LOL
word count: 952
Tumblr media Tumblr media
 You were hoping the pain after your accident would become more bearable after 5 days at home, but when you were still dealing with cramping, and now stabbing pains in your chest, Chris wouldn’t take no for an answer when it came time to go back to the hospital. Poor Arlie had been beside herself all morning as she watched you wince and moan as the waves of pain passed through you. Lisa was just as worried, but tried to keep Arlie calm and away from a potential panic attack
“Momma no go pwease no go!”
You frowned, opening your arms for her so you could hold her for a few moments
“My love, I’ll be okay, I promise you
momma’s gotta get fixed up so I can be all better again”
“Don’t wanna lose momma
”
Your heart was breaking at the tears that lined her eyes, slowly slipping out every few seconds 
“Arlie Mae, you’re not going to lose me, I’ll be home before you know it, I need you to help Nana with your brother, he’s going to need his big sister while Daddy and I are gone” 
She sniffled
“Okay momma
I-I try to help Nana”
“Thank you baby, I know you’re scared, but I’ll be home before you know it, so I need you to eb a big brave girl for me” 
You kissed her cheek upon hearing Chris call your name from the door, standing slowly to kiss Wesley and hug Lisa, you gave everyone one last goodbye before grabbing an overnight bag, and some snacks. It was hard to tell how long you’d be at the hospital until you arrived and got checked out, so overpacking may come in handy, even if you usually avoided it. 
“Ready to go honey?”
“As ready as I’ll ever be I suppose
I just hope it’s nothing serious”
Chris placed a kiss on your temple after helping you get settled into the front seat of the car 
“I hope so too, we’ll just have to wait and see now
”
You nodded folding your hands into your lap, you’d be lying to yourself if you said you weren’t freaking out a little bit. The prospect of it being horrible news compared to slightly okay news, now seeming to become more real, the closer to the hospital you got. Knowing Chris would be panicking just as much as you figured Arlie still may be at home, you remained quiet, and optimistic that you would be in and out of there in no time. 
-
“Mrs. Evans, I am glad you decided to come back in to see us, albeit not the best circumstances, better to be safe than sorry right?”
You were laying in a hospital bed, a private room once again at Mass Gen, you’d had numerous counts of blood taken, a few scans, x-rays, an entire workup because Chris nor you wanted to leave without being absolutely sure you were one hundred percent okay to go back home 
“So, we have taken a look at all the tests and scans we completed, the pain your experiencing is two things, one of them which is a chip in your collarbone, that has come loose and will require surgery in order to have that bone stabilized again”
Your hand reached for Chris’s looking for some comfort, he was quick to take it, holding it tightly in his, eyes trained on the doctor who had what appeared to be more bad news 
“You also have a collapsed lung, which worries me most because of the duration it seems to have been collapsed for, that is going to require immediate surgery, so we are going to take you down within the hour
any questions I can answer?”
When Chris started speaking with him you zoned out, your mind racing through every endless possibility that could potentially happen while you are on the operating table. It felt like your brain was spinning out of control, your eyes now glossed over, you were freaking out, but Chris could see it, so he promptly held your face in his hands 
“Hey, hey
baby breathe, you gotta breathe for me beautiful
”
“I-I don’t want to d-die, what if-what if”
Chris shook his head 
“No, we aren’t going to do that. You’re not going anywhere y/n, we have the best doctors looking after you, they’re going to help you so we can go home to the kids, so we can live the rest of our lives together, you are going to be okay”
He rested his forehead against yours as you closed your eyes, attempting to get your breathing back under control, and after a few minutes you managed to slow your heart rate again, Chris placed a few kisses to your cheeks before settling on your lips just as the pre op team came in
“I’ll be here the whole time, I promise, I love you so much”
“I love you too Chris, don’t ever forget that”
Chris wanted to say more, he felt like he needed you, but once that team of nurses had rushed into the room to prep you for two back-to-back surgeries, he knew he needed to step back and let them get to work. You were in the best care, and the best hands possible here but that wasn’t enough to keep the anxious thoughts and worries away. Even as he sat down in the uncomfortable chair by the window to call home, that sinking feeling never left him, seeing Arlie and Wesley helped to distract his mind. He truthfully didn’t know how long you’d been in the OR, but he hoped to god it wouldn’t be long so he could have you back in his arms, because life without his better half wasn’t something he was willing to settle for nor think about.
