"Sorry i just got home, i was helping Kate after work. Eric is out of town and she needed the extra help." Ellen said walking thru the front door, "Oh thats fine! We have this all figured out anyway right boys?" Patrick said looking at the twins who were sitting on the couch, "Wow! You really did a nice job with them." Ellen said looking at her spotlessly clean home, "Yea, the boys napped right when we got home, Talula went to her friends, so it was just me and Juliette for 2 hours." Patrick said, "Wow! Thank you so much Honey i appreciate it so much." Ellen said giving Patrick a kiss and a hug, "Have they eaten yet?" Ellen said, "No, wanna go out? Talula asked if she could sleepover and I said yes, if thats okay. And i could see if Jess wanted to watch the kids." Patrick said, "I would love to. But Jess is busy tonight, Justin will be fine coming here im sure." Ellen said.
Ellen: Hey, can you come watch the 3 littles so me and Paddy can go out to eat?
Justin: Sure, be over in 20.
Ellen: Thanks!
"Justin said he will be here in 20 minutes. Ill start getting ready." Ellen said walking upstairs. When she got into her room, she pulled out the white Versace dress that she hadn't seen in what felt like ages. Patrick got her this dress before they were married and she had held on to it ever since. "This'll be perfect." She said to herself, she went to the bathroom and put it on. It defined her body and accentuated her baby bump. She curled her hair a bit and let it flow into beachy waves, put on some very red lipstick and went downstairs. Patrick was waiting for her at the bottom of the stairs, "Damn do you look good in that." Patrick said smiling, he was wearing a black tux with a bow tie, hewent up to hug her and kiss her, they were going somewhere very fancy. "Wow E. You still look amazing even while 6.5 months pregnant!" Justin said coming from the kitchen, "Thank you Justin! And thank you for watching them." Ellen said, "My pleasure, go have fun!" Justin said. Patrick and Ellen went out the front door and went to Patricks car.

They pulled into the parking lot of a ocean view restaurant, they were going to sit on the outside patio on the beach. They were approached by paparazzi as they tried to enter the restaurant "Ellen! When are you due?" one asked, "Patrick, how is your racing going?" another asked, "Anything to look forward to in the show?" another one asked, "Im due late december." Ellen replied, "Ive taken a break from racing, to focus on the show and my family." Patrick replied, "Yes there is alot to look forward to in the show! Get your tissues ready." Ellen replied as they finally got a long enough break to get into the restaurant, "Hi-" the hostess stopped, "Oh my gosh! I love your show!" She added, "Right this way. Private beach seating just for you." She finished, "Oh you dont have to do that." Patrick said, "Our pleasure." She said sitting them down at a private table lit by fairy lights. It was the perfect sunset, "Let me get a picture of you El." Patrick said as Ellen stood up and wrapped her hands around her stomach to show she was pregnant, Patrick took the picture and went to post it.
"Dinner at sunset with my beautiful Wife❤️ @ellenpompeo"
"Alright what can I get you guys to drink?" The hostess came back and asked, "I think we will do waters." Patrick said, "Okay. And if you dont mind me asking, how are you guys and your family?" The hostess asked, "Oh we dont mind at all. We're good, our kids are good. Juliette is gonna be 1 soon and soon after that this baby is coming out!" Ellen said, "Aw thats lovely to hear. Thank you guys so much" The hostess said walking away. They loved meeting their fans believe it or not, they were both very social people and understood that people were invested in their lives. "So what do you want to eat E?" Patrick asked, "I think ill do the steak and salad. Want to split it? It looks too big even for me and the baby." Ellen said laughing, "Sure El." Patrick replied back. "So are you ready to go to moms for christmas?" Ellen asked, she always called Patricks parents mom and dad, they asked her if she wanted to almost 10 years ago and it always felt natural, "Well, 4 kids in that 3 bedroom house might be a lot, but yea." Patrick said, "Itll be fun. I promise." Ellen said smiling, "Now im starting to think if we should have them come here. What if the baby comes or what if we have an emergency. Plus if the baby comes they can be here to watch the kids." Patrick said, "Oh Patrick thats not necessary. We can go out there and ill be fine." Ellen said, "I want the best care for you. Youre gonna be 9 months pregnant and traveling. No sane pregnant woman does that. Theyre gonna come out here." Patrick said smiling, "I may not be sane but I do love traveling." Ellen said laughing, "Not while 9months pregnant!" Patrick said giggling.

A few hours later, they finally got home. Showered and were off to bed, "I love you Ellie." Patrick said with his arms wrapped around her as she layed her head on his chest, "I love you more." Ellen replied, "Well that might be impossible." Patrick said kissing her forehead "I dont think so! But ill let you think whatever you want. Whatever floats your little boat." Ellen said smiling as she looked up at him, still tangled in the presence of his arms, "Sleep honey, you need rest." Patrick said and dozed off to sleep.
