The Assistant (Chris Pratt Love story)

Chapter 44

A couple of weeks passed.

In the meantime, I moved in with Chris.

It was the greatest feeling to wake up in Chris's arms every morning.

Today was another one of those days.

My eyes fluttered open, by the sound of my alarm.

I smiled as I felt Chris's strong arm around my growing waist, almost like he was protecting the baby.

I quickly turned off the alarm.

I couldn't help but smile as, I rolled back into his arms and placed my hand on his, making him stir.

"Good morning." He said sleepily behind me, before gently pulling me closer to him.

"Good morning." I responded happily, as he placed a soft kiss on my cheek.

"How are you feeling?" He asked almost a bit concerned. Probably because I had been really sick for days.

"I'm good. We're good." I answered happily.

Chris gently rubbed my lower belly, with a huge smile on his face.

I could feel him shift behind me, as he checked the time.

"I have to get up." Chris said sighing, before rolling back to me.

I shifted in his arms, so I was facing him.

"Can't you stay?" I asked, pouting at him.

Chris laughed before he leaned over for a kiss.

"You could come with me?" He suggested.

I placed my head on his chest and looked up at him.

"What are you doing today?" I asked curiously.

"I'm on The Ellen Show." Chris answered.

"You have to meet Ellen. You really should come with me." He continued excitedly, making me laugh.

"Okay. Everything to spend time with you." I said smirking, before kissing him.

A couple of hours later, we arrived at the studio and was immediately led to a room, where they did Chris's make up.

It was really fun, to be able to go with Chris to these things.

"Are you nervous?" I asked, watching him get ready.

"Naah. I'm used to it." He answered, as he got up from his chair.

Suddenly Ellen walked in.

"Hey. Are you ready?" She greeted happily, as she hugged Chris.

She quickly turned to me, and reached out her hand, to greet me.

"Nice to meet you, Melissa." She greeted, smiling warmly.

"You too. Chris told me so much about you." I responded.

"Let me see that ring." She said reaching out for my hand.

"Wow." She exclaimed as she saw the ring.

"Did Chris pick this one?" She asked, almost in disbelief.

"Yes." I chuckled.

"He's a keeper." Ellen said jokingly.
