《Infinity || Dan Smith》Eighty-One.
Advertisement
Six months later and nothing much has changed. Both Dan and Charlie have worked around their busy schedules, as well as being parents. Charlie's film was already completed within her first trimester.
"Fuck off!" Charlie laughs in disbelief whilst Dan who sits opposite her nods his head, he can't help but smile at her reaction. Charlie then looks down at Lacey who sits on her lap looking very curious and slightly mortified. She's never seen Charlie speechless before.
"As if your film is getting a sequel!" — Charlie loudly scoffs while she shakes her head, her smile grows wider and wider — "This is fucking huge...and it's not even out yet!" Dan nods his head while he takes in the compliment.
"Even the baby is excited for you, Dan...seriously look happy." Charlie places one hand on her bump while her other arm is wrapped around Lacey.
"She kicking again?" Dan tilts his head forwards towards Charlie's bump.
"They're still weak...which is cute at the moment." She then throws back her eyes before dismissing the conversation.
"What type of scenes has Dakota got you doing anyway, sorry I haven't been invested much in your film?" They haven't really been to each other's sets, although Charlie is planning to have surprise visit on Dan's.
"About two hundred fucking sex scenes." Charlie bites her bottom lip hardly. She doesn't want any other actress kissing her husband, but she knows that it's only 'acting' and not to take any of it seriously.
But she's still incredibly jealous.
"And the actress your fucking in the movie is..." Charlie voice trails off while Dan shakes his head with a smile. He can see, as well as sense, Charlie's green eyes jealously from a mile off. He finds it sweet that she gets all on a fuss about this way...just because she loves him.
"Emilia Clarke." Charlie's mind for a second goes blank while she then removes her hand from her bump and picks up a piece of her French toast delicately with the back of her fork.
"What has she been in? Her name seems familiar?" Charlie asks while Dan cracks a laugh, he can't tell whether Charlie being serious or not.
"Game of Thrones..." — she continues to look at Dan blankly — "she's literally your favourite character." Charlie shrugs her shoulders back before falsely smiling.
"Is she pretty..." Dan then immediately stands up and takes his wallet from out of his Adidas pockets. It's what he wears on the days off, he's not really a skinny jeans person no more...

Admittedly, it's only because Charlie told him her hatred of guys wearing them.
"Yeah, you could say that she's pretty..." Charlie gasps whilst looking completely horrified. Meanwhile Dan laughs at her expense.
"But my wife is prettier." Dan knows it's a rather cliché thing to say, but if he doesn't address it then he'll know that Charlie will forever hate him.
Charlie looks at completely Dan unamused while he then walks around their table and goes to pay for their breakfast. Charlie on the other hand eats the last of her French toast before turning Lacey around on her lap, so that they're facing each other.
"I am prettier...right?" She whispers feeling something that she's never really felt before...insecure.
Lacey doesn't reply, obviously. Instead the baby opens her arms wide and smiles before babbling 'mama'. It's nothing new. She's been saying 'mama' for the fun of it for a while now, although she doesn't know it's meaning yet. "I'm mama...and you're Lacey" Charlie says with a massive grin on her face before holding her up slightly, just so they're face to face.
The baby then laughs while Charlie makes funny faces. Then at the corner of her eye she sees flashing through the glass windows. It's a sunny day so it can't be lightening either...and that fact makes her know exactly what it is.
The paparazzi have been following Dan and Charlie for the past few months religiously, especially since Illusion is one of the most highest grossing movies of all time. They haven't really been out in public and not get noticed. However, because they haven't said anything about their relationship they're bombarded with the same 'are you together' questions.
They've both accepted the fact that they're a-list celebrities that they freely walk around with their daughter, although they hate it.
"Excuse me..." a girls voice trails off while Charlie looks up for a second.
The girl is about twelve years old with long brown hair and big blue eyes, she looks extremely nervous and sweaty. "Hey..." Charlie smiles noticing the girl's Marvel Studios top.
"I-I..." The girl is completely speechless.
"Well it's very nice to meet you, I" Charlie laughs, although she pushes Lacey's head towards her chest. She knows that some fans like to secretly film.
The girl laughs...but then that laugh turns into a cry and soon the entire posh breakfast bar stares at the them. "Hey, it's just me. Come on..." Charlie has no idea what she's meant to do in this scenario. She doesn't want to push the 'little' girl away, but she knows that she can't sit down with them.

Can she?
The girl cries louder while Charlie stares at Dan's empty seat. "Do you want to sit down for sec? You're going really pale..." Charlie then tucks her chair in so her baby bump isn't showing.
The girl sits down before she dries her eyes. "Mmm-ah...mmammma!" Lacey squeals whilst Charlie closes her eyes in embarrassment that she's clearly trying to hide her daughter from the her own fans. Despite being seen with Lacey multiple times. And doing a terrible job.
"It's true, isn't it. The rumours...and your dress at comic-con?" Charlie looks blankly at the girl for a few seconds, but then she looks down and sees Lacey staring up at her lovingly. Charlie then smiles at her daughter before silently nodding her head.
"Everything is true." She whispers knowing that the secret is out. There's without a doubt a girl who wears Marvel mercy has got fandom friends to gossip to, being online or in person.
"You're Dan's...wife?" Charlie nods her head with a smile.
"I knew it! You're both so cute! I want a boyfriend like Dan someday...I mean he'll have to be obsessed with Illusion too." Charlie smiles and nods her head.
"My husband is a pain in the bum. But yeah, that's a good idea about finding a fanboy. You need someone to accidentally spill the spoilers too" the girl nods her head with a massive smile. She's savouring and holding onto every word that comes out of Charlie's mouth.
She cannot believe that her favourite actress is right before her very eyes.
"Is she both of yours..." Charlie doesn't care about privacy anymore. She is a extremely proud parent who has wanted to introduce the world to her daughter for so long.
"Yup. Doesn't she have her daddies eyes..." Charlie says in a babyish voice while she rubs her nose against Lacey's.
"Oh my gosh" the fan helplessly says in awe while she admires the little girl.
Unbeknownst to Charlie and the girl, he stands right besides the table in confusion. "Er...babe..." he laughs whilst Charlie backs back before hitting the top of her stomach hardly on the table.
"Fuck you..." she moans rubbing the top of her stomach while Dan concernedly takes Lacey off of her. The girl gaps at the sight of Dan, as well as Charlie's baby bump.
"Sorry for swearing, that's so wrong of me..." Charlie moans in pain while the girl shakes her head.
"I'm not the one to give a fuck about swearing..." the girl tries to laugh but is finding herself concerned for Charlie who cradles her bump.
"Are you a..." — Dan gulps — "fan?" The girl nods her head while he looks at Charlie almost traumatised.
"Relax. She knows about us...and Lace..." Charlie heavily breathes in as the pain passes.
"And that one." The girl nods her head towards Charlie's bump while they both smile.
"I think she's good at keeping secrets...what do you think?" Charlie says as she deliberately narrows her eyes. This makes the girl giggle while she nods her head ecstatically.
"I don't have any friends...or people to talk to...in general." The girls voice goes down while Charlie then hold's her heart looking completely saddened. She wasn't expecting the girl to say that of all things.
A sudden rush of nostalgia runs through Charlie's veins, although it isn't the good kind. It's rather the feeing of being lonely...she was always cold and goosebumps appeared every time she'd try to make conversation. She felt herself 'being weird' and that's what made Charlie be a loner. The others thought she was mentally 'different' but Charlie isn't, she just suffered from extreme anxiety.
Luckily working in acting made that anxiety go away over a brief period of time.
"Where's your mum, darling?" Charlie asks while trying not to tear up about the girl's loneliness.
"She had to go on call...she's a paramedic." The girl says with a smile while Charlie smiles.
"Are you all by yourself here?" She looks around trying to see if she can spot her father or a older sibling, but most people here are in their sixties.
The girl nods her head. "What's your name?" Dan then asks while Charlie thinks of a way to ask the girl if she'd like to join them on their day out, of course she'll take her home or a familiar place.
"Susie." The girl sways left to right, exactly how Joe Everett did in his interview.
"Would you maybe want to join us at the park? This will be Lacey's first time going. I swear we're not weird!" Charlie laughs while the girl nods her head ecstatically at the offer.
Well this is going to be fun...Dan thinks to himself.
