*~COMPLETE~* Veronica Malcolm and Chris Evans have been friends practically their entire lives. Despite their 4-year age difference Chris was the one Veronica was closest to within the entire Evans clan. Veronica being this close with Chris makes t...
We celebrated the New Year together and just had a good time. Chris and I were actively trying to get pregnant and nothing yet. We weren't getting too discouraged knowing it would happen when it happens.
We were sitting as Chris was getting fitted for a suit he would be wearing to an event in a few weeks.
"So, what is this for again?" I asked.
"A gala event at Christopher's Haven. They have a charity event every year and I usually go. Scott or Ma are usually my date..." Chris trailed off and just looked at me.
"Who is your date this year?" I asked and he just looked at me. "Chris?" I asked and he sighed.
"Well, I was going to ask you tonight over a nice dinner if you wanted to come with me and make our debut as a couple." Chris said. I just looked at him a little shocked. I didn't even think about going to any event with him ever, no matter where we were as a couple.
"Chris, I don't know..." I trailed off and he just looked at me. He took a break from looking at suit options on the rack and walked over to me. He crouched down to my level.
"Veronica, I want you there with me. I want everyone to know the woman I'm in love with and the woman who I'm with. I want the world to know." Chris said. I just looked at Chris and was unsure.
"Chris, I still don't know. I mean what about everything in my past. I don't want any of that to come out and ruin the night or your image. I mean with my old job -..."
"Hey, don't do that okay..." Chris said taking my hands. "We can talk to Megan, we can have her watch for the chatter about it if it starts to come out." Chris said and I looked at him and smiled.
"So, you really want me to walk with you?" I asked.
"Yes Ronnie, I really want you to walk with me." Chris said. I leaned down to him and kissed him.
"I would love to walk the carpet with you." I said once we broke apart and Chris smiled.
"Perfect, let's talk to the stylist about getting you a dress." Chris said and I smiled as we walked out to the living room where she was waiting for Chris.

It was the night of the Gala event and Lisa was over at the house to see us all dressed up together. I finished getting my hair and make-up done, Chris insisted I get someone to do it and then I got dressed. We kind of matched and I loved that we did.
We walked out of the master bedroom after we finished getting ready, Lisa saw us and smiled.
"You both look amazing! I can't believe you are finally showing her off!" Lisa said excitedly and I smiled but I was nervous.
"It's time. She will always be my girl." Chris said giving me a small kiss. The gate opened and then a horn honked when it got outside.
"Car's here. Megan is in it waiting." Chris said and Lisa pulled out her phone taking some pictures of Chris and I together and then we headed outside.
We quickly got in the car and were on our way.
"Alright Chris, you ready to show off Ronnie?" Megan asked and he looked at me and smiled.
"I am." Chris said.
"Okay well it's a pretty mild event. Just some pictures when you arrive, maybe an interview or two with local news outlets and then inside the hotel ballroom for dinner and dancing." Megan said and Chris nodded.
"Got it." Chris said.
"And Ronnie, when he is doing interviews, you can go ahead and stand off to the side with me." Megan said.
"Sounds good." I said and then sighed. "And what we talked about before...my job?" I asked her and she nodded.
"I got it under control..." Megan said.
She wasn't too crazy about my backstory and what I did for a living when Chris and I told her, but she knew it needed to be buried and covered up. If it got out, I used to be an escort and was now with Chris, we could only imagine what was going to happen.
Chris held my hand the whole car ride and once we got out, we saw everyone waiting and sighed.
"Let's go." Chris said and got out of the car. Once we got to take the photos, they were all yelling at Chris asking who I was, and I smiled as he looked over at me and smiled. He leaned down to give my cheek a small kiss but came to my ear.
"You're doing amazing Ronnie. They love you and I love you too." Chris said and I smiled up at Chris.
"I love you." I said and Chris smiled.
Chris stopped to talk to some of the local news stations who were there covering the event. He kept me by his side the whole time but side-stepped questions if it was asked about me knowing Megan was going to handle it later.
We went inside and Chris sighed, and I looked at him.
"You okay?" I asked and Chris smiled and seemed more relaxed than I thought he would be.
"That went well. I'm so happy you're here with me Ronnie." Chris said.
"I'm happy to be here too Chris." I said.
"Ready to go get some dinner and dance the night away with me?" Chris asked and I nodded.

The next morning, I woke up when Dodger got on the bed and wedged his way between Chris and I on the bed.
"Chris, does he need to go out?" I mumbled and he just groaned. "You want me to take him?" I asked and Chris grumbled again. I huffed a laugh. I knew I wore him out last night and I wasn't even sorry. We had a great time at the event but when we got home, we had even more fun in the bedroom.
I got out of bed, put on a hoodie and a pair of leggings with my tennis shoes.
"Come on bubba, let's go for a walk." I said as I hooked him up on his leash, redid my hair and we headed out of the house and out of the gate.
As we walked, I noticed people driving by and most were the normal neighbors who just waved as they passed, and I would wave back. I was so thankful for the quiet, peaceful neighborhood. As I rounded the corner my cellphone went off and I pulled it from my pocket, and it was Chris.
"Hey, I'm out with Dodger since you wouldn't wake up." I chuckled.
"Ronnie, get home...you're being seen by people, and they are taking your picture." Chris said and I just seemed confused and started looking around.
"Chris, no one has approached me or anything...I'm fine." I said.
"Veronica, get home!" Chris snapped and hung up. I groaned as we quickly walked home. Once we got inside, I found Chris sitting on the couch scrolling through his phone.
"There are photos of us from last night..." Chris said and showed me pictures from the carpet.
"Which we knew Chris." I said taking Dodger off his leash and he ran up to Chris.
"Right, which is fine but now they see you out and take your picture. I wanted to keep your life as normal as possible." Chris said as he pulled me down into his lap and I sighed.
"I hate to break this too you sweetie, but I'm dating Chris Evans, my life is going to be anything but normal now." I said and he smiled. I leaned in and gave him a small passionate kiss and he moaned as I did.
We broke apart and I cupped his face with a little force.
"You ever snap at me like you did and hang up on me ever again Evans, I will hurt you." I said and Chris smiled.
"Never again." Chris said and I leaned down giving him another kiss.
