I Am Here For You

OH MY GOD 3k READS OR VIEWS WHATEVER BUT THANKS FOR ALL THE SUPPORT

Chris' POV
I wake up on the couch all stiff. I go to stand up when I feel arms wrap around my waist tightly. I look down a smile as I remember that Melissa is here and I am in her apartment. Her head nestled into the crook of my neck. I feel her steady breaths on my neck. I lightly kiss the top of her head and carefully lay her on the couch trying not to wake her up. I creep into the kitchen and I start to make breakfast. I am cooking bacon when I hear foot steps creeping towards me. I turn around spatula in my hand ready to defend myself. I look down to see Mel's blue eyes tear stained but she is giggling. I start to laugh.

"You ruined it I was trying to make you breakfast in bed... no couch and you have ruined it!" I say pouting.

"Nothing can keep me between bacon!" She says plopping down at the table and stuffing her face with food. I smile and start eating too. She finishes and frowns as she looks at her phone.

"It's today... the trial." She says sighing. I see tears start to well up in her eyes and I run to comfort her. Her body melts into my arms as she starts crying. I comfort her until she stops.

"Hey Mel lets get ready we have to go soon." I say and she nods and goes to the bathroom. Mel walks out her room in a small black dress that looks absolutely beautiful on her.

It's simple but nice. I head into her bathroom to take a shower and get dressed I feel like I am over dressed.

Melissa's POV
I quickly wipe my eyes before Chris leaves the bathroom. Why I am crying I have no clue. Yes Blake is a reminder of the past and seeing him will hurt me because at some point I loved him. Now I am confused if I still do or if I love someone else looking at Chris walking out of the bathroom. I drool as I stare at him. He walks up to me and hugs me and wipes the rest of my tears off my face.
"Mel stop crying you are ruining your make-up not like you need any though." He says with a smile making me smile. He hugs me and we head to his car and to the courthouse. On the car ride there he rests his hand on my thigh and I blush. Maybe I do like him. I get lost in my thoughts thinking about Blake and our good memories and frown at the bad ones. I replay the phone call in my head. I also think about how I am going to deal with the press and if I see Hanna like poor Chris too. I start to feel my eyes water and I am about to burst into tears when I hear Chris say we are here. He throws on his sunglasses and I put on mine and we quickly shuffle into the courthouse. When I enter I see familiar faces, I see Chy, Katie, Mehcad, Jeremy, and David all here to support me. I give them a quick smile and get seated. We wait and wait for several minutes the trial was supposed to start a while ago. I start to worry but I hear the door open and I see Blake hand in hand with Hanna. I feel Chris tense and I want to cry. He moved on so fast I mean he did cheat on me... was I not enough... they seat in the other side of the court and the judge begins talking. I zone out and I feel hot tears stream down my face. I am no longer Melissa Jenner back to Benoist. Blake grinning the whole time literally making out with Hanna every second he has the chance which is whenever I happen to be looking. Chris realizes and grabs my hand intense then relax. The trail ends and Blake walk out first with Hanna. I stay back and get hugs from friends. Chris stays by my side the whole time. Before Blake left they literally looked like they were going to kill each other from across the courthouse. About ten minutes later I exit the courthouse with Chris and on the way back to my apartment I have a panic attack and I breakdown sobbing. Chris pulls the car over and we sit in the back of his Range Rover as he comforts me. I lay in his arms until I fall asleep. I hear him whisper in my ear...
"I am here for you Mel." Before everything goes dark. I feel his soft lips touch my forehead and I smile.
