True to his word Chris came over Saturday immediately after landing. Belle jumped in his arms the second he walked in the door wrapping her legs around his waist, she kissed him deeply.

"Wow!" Chris chuckled, "I could get use to this homecoming." He hugged her tight against him. "Ughhh you smell like....home." He inhaled her intoxicating scent.

"You smell like.....a stale airplane." Belle laughed. "But baby you can pull it off." She kissed his neck.

"Ohhhh. You gotta let me shower first." He pleaded as she continued to kiss his neck and slipped her hands under his shirt.

"It's ok." She murmured. "I don't mind."

"I feel gross." He said as he tilted his head back enjoying every moment of her lips on his neck.
"OK." She slid off him and he groaned. "I have an idea." She grabbed his hand and led him into her bathroom. "We can shower together." She raised a seductive eyebrow.



After a long relaxing shower, they finally lazily got dressed and after hearing Chris's stomach growl for what Belle swore was the tenth time she went into the kitchen to make him something to eat.

"I'm going to go away more often if this is what I get to come home to." Chris leaned back in his chair clasping his hands behind his head. Belle sat a huge BLT sandwich with a pickle on the side down in front of him on the table.

"Yeah?" Belle sat down in the chair next to him, "Well I don't like when you leave."

"I don't like it either." Chris admitted.

"Well at least I'm not being photographed with beautiful co-stars." Belle rested her chin on her hand.

"No but you're pictured with your ex-boyfriend."

"We were leaving the stadium. I'm surprised you even saw that story."

"I have you on google alert."

"Shut up." Belle laughed.

"Ok you're right. I have myself on google alert." He took a big bite of his sandwich.

Belle laughed and stood up to grab him a napkin. "But why does she keep posting pictures with you?" Belle leaned back against the counter.

"I don't know...maybe she's got a thing for me." Chris gave her a charming grin. Belle didn't crack a smile

"Babe I don't know." He stood up before reaching out and pulling her into his arms with just a tad bit resistance from her. "Does it matter? Really?" He stuck out his lower lip.

"Yeah it matters. I just don't think it's appropriate. You're dating me. She shouldn't be pursuing you so blatantly."

Chris laughed "Pursuing me? First it was Anna and now Karen. You don't need to be so jealous." he pulled her into his chest

"Don't laugh at me." Her voice was muffled from being pressed against him.

"What?" He pushed her back some.

"I said don't laugh at me"

"Well I can't help it. You're ridiculous. Cute as hell but ridiculous."

"Anna is your ex-wife! You have a child together! You've never been photographed with her since your split."

"You been stalking photos of me again?" He teased. Her blank expression told him she didn't think he was funny

"Ok. I know I haven't. I haven't been comfortable enough to be around her. But since I've been with you it doesn't...it doesn't hurt as bad."
