Once Chris closes the door behind him, I start jumping around for a second. I feel so happy right now, it's unbelievable! I guess I'm having a good day today then, I usually just feel like I shouldn't feel this way towards Chris.

I grab some blankets and pillows, and place them on the couch. I put on some cozy lights, turn on the TV, put all the snacks and drinks on the table and get a bowl of water for Dodger. I can't wait to spend this day with Chris!

Chris' POV

That's it, I think I start to realize now. She likes me than more as a friend too, right? I mean, the way she looks at me is just... It's so magical, so loving! She said she cares about me and rubbed my neck with her nails and... Man, I couldn't be happier.

Ofcourse, I don't want to get my hopes up. I'm really excited for today, but I don't want myself to start believing that she actually likes me as more than a friend. Maybe she doesn't, that would be fucked up.

I quickly pick up Dodger, and text Sebastian and Lizzie about what happened. They're very excited for me too, I have the best friends in the world.

Back to Amelia's POV

The doorbell rings again after a few minutes, so I open up and greet Dodger with a lot of cuddles. They both get inside, and we make ourselves comfortable on the couch.

"Are you comfortable enough?" I ask, looking at Chris who's sitting next to me with Dodger in between us. "Yeah, definitely! Thank you for having me today" he replies, and we softly smile. "I should be the one thanking you, I really appreciate everything you did" I add, looking right into his eyes.

"I'm glad you do, I was kinda nervous about it though. I thought that maybe you'd want to be alone today, sleeping or something, I don't know" Chris silently chuckles, making me laugh.

We decide to watch a few Disney movies, and spend the whole day singing and dancing to their songs. We have so much fun all day, singing, dancing, watching movies and eating. We order in some pizza for dinner, and eat it together, laying on the couch.

"Oh I um, I wanted to ask you something, by the way" Chris suddenly says, looking to his side to face me. We're really close to each other, almost cuddled up. I nod my head, and let him ask his question.

"So um, I wanted to take Dodger to the vet for a checkup, just to be sure. But... Well, I was wondering if maybe... If you could do it?" he asks, looking a little nervous while I smile at him.

"Ofcourse! Yeah, I'd love that! When did you want to come to the clinic?" I ask in reply, making him smile as well. "Whenever suits you" he chuckles, so we agree on meeting each other there tomorrow, at 2pm.

I start feeling a little cold, and Chris seems to notice that. "Are you cold? Do you want my sweater?" he asks, looking at me again. "No, that's okay, thank you. I'll just... I'll get comfortable if that's okay?" I ask in reply, so he nods his head.

I slowly, gently wrap my arm around his waist, and place my head on his chest. I hold him a little tighter once I feel him wrapping his arms around me too, and softly smile to myself.

"Is this okay?" I ask, feeling myself getting a little tired. "This is more than okay" he silently chuckles, making me laugh with him. I hold him even closer, and completely cuddle up. I haven't felt this comfortable in my life! After only a few minutes, I feel myself drifting off.

After only a few minutes, I feel myself drifting off. I slowly fall asleep, still cuddling with Chris on the couch. I wake up the next morning, and still feel Chris' body pressed against mine. I softly smile, open my eyes and see that he's still asleep.

I silently sigh, and sit up straight. His arms slowly let go of me, so I stand up and walk over to the kitchen. I make us some breakfast, and when I'm done, I get back to the couch.

Chris is so beautiful, he looks like an angel! I can't keep myself from smiling, and gently run my fingers through his hair. "Chris? Hey, wake up sweetheart" I whisper, and he starts moving a little.

"Hey" he whispers, slowly opening his eyes with a little smile. "Hey" I giggle, also staying silent. "Did I just fall asleep?" he asks, still smiling. "Yeah, I fell asleep too" I reply, and he starts sitting up straighter.

"Oh man, I'm sorry about that" he chuckles, but I shake my head. "It's okay, I didn't mind. It was really comfortable" I add, running my hand through his perfect hair again.

We spend the morning together, and after breakfast and talking, he leaves again. He thanked me a hundred times, and I did the same thing. We'll see each other at the clinic at 2pm, I'm already excited for that.

I clean up the house, take a shower and get ready to go. I grab my things, get to the clinic, talk to my coworkers for a while and have lunch with them.

"So, how have you been? You're glowing!" my coworker Jack says, making me smile as I immediately think about Chris. "Yeah! I'm... I'm good, I'm doing great" I reply, and he nods his head. "I'm really happy for you, and I can't wait to have you back here" he chuckles, and we all laugh.

"Am? Hey, um, there's someone here to see you" the receptionist says, walking into the break room. I look at the clock, and see that it's 2pm. "Right, tell him I'll be right there" I kindly reply, so she nods her head and walks away again.

"He? Do you have a boyfriend?" Jack asks, raising his eyebrows which makes me laugh. "No, I um, I promised someone to give his dog a checkup" I giggle. "Ah, alright. Too bad, I'd love for you to find someone perfect" he adds as I stand up, and I give him a little smile.

It makes me think again, maybe this isn't a good idea after all. I like Chris now, that's exactly what I don't want. I want to be with him and kiss him and go om stupid dates with him, but I also want to hate him for making me feel things.

Honesty, I'm just debating myself every single day. I think about Chris, I hang out with Chris a lot and I feel a lot of things when I'm with Chris. It feels good, it feels amazing but still, I keep thinking about the ways this is going to hurt me. I don't believe in such thing as love, it's just not real whenever it comes to me.

I'm afraid that if I try again, the results will be the same. The same as in my last relationship, full of mental and physical abuse.

I'm not enough to be with Chris anyway. I mean, he's this beautiful, handsome, muscular, sweet, caring, kind and loving actor and I'm... Well, me.
