The Awkward Silence

“It’s not going to be like that forever.” I replied.
It hurt to hear the sadness in her voice when she said that she felt alone. There’s a difference between being alone and feeling alone. To say which one is the worst, would be an easy answer; it would be the feeling alone part. Many people in my circle deal with it. People may think that rich people have it all, and that we’re always living ‘the good life’, but they’re wrong. We may live financially well, but as far as feelings go, most of us aren’t okay. Even in a crowd full of people, some of us still feel alone.
My mother said that in order to be truly happy, we need to have love in our lives. Just the thought of the word made me want to vomit, whenever she would say that. I’d scoff and wave my hand dismissively, because

ALI P.O.V Well this is awkward, I thought to myself.I didn’t know what to say, and he wasn’t saying anything either; which made this even more awkward. I internally groaned. We went from awkward silence in the car, to being sweet when he held my hand; back to awkward silence, to now eating something sweet. I looked up from my food when Matthew cleared his throat.I internally sighed with relief, finally he saying something.“Do you like your ice-cream?” he asked with an awkward tone.“Mmhmm.” I replied with a smile.He nodded, accepting my answer. “Good, good.”Then it came back. The awkward silence.“Do you like yours?” I asked.“Oh yes. It&r

MATTHEW P.O.V“So, what did you do after you kissed her?” asked Mikey.Mikey came over to my house this morning, to talk about Ali and I. He didn’t know that I went to see Ali right after I left Sam’s hotel yesterday. So, when he came over, I told him everything and I regret every single second of it. Having to replay the memory and saying it out loud to Mikey, felt even worse; because it was a reminder of my mistake. I was basically mortified at what I did with Ali last night. I wasn’t mortified by the fact that I kissed her. No, definitely not that; it was what I did after I kissed her. Mikey snapped his fingers in front of my face, interrupting my thoughts.“WHAT. DID. YOU. DO. MATTHEW?” he asked again, emphasizing every word.

ALI POV.[BEFORE CALLING MATTHEW THAT MORNING]“Pssst.” whispered a tiny voice.I ignored it, hoping it would go away.“Pssst.” Said the tiny voice getting louder.I stayed quiet and again hoped it would go away.“Aliiiiiii,” now the voice was whining.I groaned and turned over, my back towards the culprit. “Wake up.” Groaned the voice.I woke up when I realized it was Dina’s voice. I kept my eyes closed, hoping she would go and watch tv or back to bed. I’m sure she still has one more day off.“I have to go back to school today, and someone has to take me.&r

Matthews P.O.V“A Date?” mouthed Mikey, as my eyes quickly shot to him.I wanted to face palm myself. I didn’t even mean to say it; it just slipped out. I don’t know why I said it, because the lack of control I’m showing; is far from the type of person I am. I am always cool, calm and collected. Right now, I sound like a bumbling fool. I looked down and felt embarrassed at how uncool I was being.“A Date?” Ali asked, repeating my question back to me.My mouth opened and closed. I did want to go on a date with Ali, ever since last night, when I realized that I was in love with her; but I didn’t want to ask her like this. I wanted to woo her the way a woman should be, when a man is trying to win her love. Besides, I don’t even know if she has any feelings for me. There was that one

Matthews P.O.V“Call her back and tell her that I won’t be able to see her, because I have meetings all day.” I said in a demanding tone.Mikey scoffed and shook his head.“You do want me to die!?” Mikey rhetorically asked me, as if my request, was a stupid thing for him to do. He shook his head “Not going to happen. I am not lying to your mother,” he said emphasizing the word lying.I shook my head at his dramatic attitude.“It’s not that hard; just call her and say what I told you to say.” I said, walking towards my room.“If it’s not that hard, then you do it.” He said following me.I paused mid step.I was not going to do that, my mother is crazy,I

Ali’s P.O.V[BEFORE MATTHEW ARRIVED FOR THEIR DATE]“Dillion, I’m home!” I shouted, as I entered my apartment and quickly headed towards the kitchen.When I entered the kitchen, I found Dillion at the kitchen island, currently in the middle of making himself a bologna sandwich for breakfast. He was almost finished making it, which was a relief, because it saved me time from making it for him, for breakfast. He looked up when he heard me coming into the kitchen. “Your back already. Thank you for dropping Dina off to school,” Said Dillion as he smeared the mayo over the bread.“It was no big deal,” I waved my hand dismissively into the air. “I’ll pick

MATTHEW P.O.V“Dillion you can not be serious right now.” I said, rubbing my temple in irratation.Mikey and I did as he said, and walked into the living room and sat onto the sofa. Dillion walked in right behind us, and sat on the single chair opposite of us. Mikey looked at Dillion with narrowed eyes, then his attention turned towards the gun. He still didn’t say anything.“What are your intentions with my sister?” said Dillion as he wiped the gun with a table cloth.I was close to correcting him on the fact that Ali wasn’t really his sister, since they weren not blood related. Then again, the close bond they have, and the gun he is holding says otherwise. Mikey was still looking at Dillions gun. He didn’t bother to answer the question since he wasn&rsq

Matthews P.O.VAs Ali and I stepped into the store, we told the lady at the desk our names, and she led us towards two open seats. Ali saw the aprons hooked onto the wall for the customers to wear. She grabbed two from the wall and handed one to me. I looked around the room and noticed there were other people wearing aprons and also waiting for the class to start. As I looked at the paintings that hung on the wall, I still could not place why this store was so familiar.In the front of the room there was a small stage that was made for the instructor. It had one big blank canvas and everything else a painter needed. I have never been here before, and even though the apartment building is not far from here; I still don’t remember seeing this place. I started thinking to myself, maybe this was one of those moments when people get déjà vu. I turned towards my side and looked at Ali.

Me & Mr. CEO Epilogue
Matthew P.O.V(Seven years later) “Daddy do you think this looks pretty? asked Anastasia.I looked up from the paper on my desk in front up me and turned my attention towards my five-year-old daughter. She looked just liked her mother, with her long dark brown wavy hair and big dark brown eyes. She smiled and tilted her head, patiently waiting for my answer as she showed me the blue headband in her hand and the blue dress she was currently wearing.I put down my pen and stood up from my chair and walked around my desk, and towards my daughter. I bent down at eye level and smiled at her. She was a surprise that was fully welcomed the day, Ali and I realized that Ali was pregnant. My mother and Aunt were ecstatic when we told them Ali was pregnant.“Of course!” I said as I grabbed th

ALI’s P.O.V“Okay, now put this back on,” Matthew said to me as he handed me back the black tie. I sighed and raised my eyebrows “Is this really necessary? I mean, I already know we are going to see your mother.”If I had never met Maria two days ago, I would have been really nervous; but after seeing her and seeing the kind of person she is; I felt sort of comfortable around her. I can’t say that I am fully comfortable, because I do not know her completely. In conclusion, I just hope that she really is okay with me and her son being together.Matthew laughed and replied “I was just kidding Ali.”My mouth formed into an ‘O’ and I nodded my head. I then grabbed the black tie and tied it around my eyes. This time

Then grabbed the black tie and tied it around her eyes. Thankfully this time, she did not ask any questions and instead stayed quiet and patient. I scooted her beside me, interlacing my hands with hers. I saw her lips form a smile and I could not help but smile with her. Every time I put I a smile on her face, it puts a smile on mine.“We’re here sir,” said Will.We drove up to a big warehouse, that I recently bought, just for today

Matthew’s P.O.VAli picked up the phone and greeted with annoyance “Hello?”I was irritated with the interruption; I was close to getting my answer from her. I am eager to know what she is going to say. I feel like she is going to say yes, because she has told me she loves me, but then again; some small part of me worries that she will change her mind. Sometimes woman are fickle sometimes.Ali rolled her eyes and quickly shut her phone and pouted at me “It was a freaking telemarketer.”We both rolled our eyes.“Now, where were we?” she asked with a sly smile.You were about to tell me if you will be my girlfriend, I thought to myself.Just then, the song by Elvis Presley ended. Gerald turned towards us and asked “Any sug

My father then turned towards me and asked “Any suggestions for songs you both want to dance to?”Matthew smiled and nodded his head, “I am not sure if you have heard of him before, but his name is Ed Sheeran.”My mother gasped in delight “I LOVE HIS SON
Me & Mr. CEO I Can't Help Falling In Love With You (Matthews P.O.V)
Matthew’s P.O.V(THE MOMENT THEY ARRIVED AT ALI’S PARENTS HOUSE)The shocked look on Ali’s face was comical. She looked confused and I already knew that she was going to wonder why we were here at her parent’s house. This morning I woke up with a plan to ask her parents for permission. I already knew that I wanted to be with Ali. Now, I just need to take the next step to make things official between us.“Why are we here?” she asked, pointing to her parent’s house behind her.I stepped forward, grabbed her hand and said “Ali, I love you, and I know you love me. That gives me enough reassurance that you want to be together.”She had a smile on her face and she nodded at me. That made me glad and I felt reassured that she was slowly accepting me being here at
Me & Mr. CEO I Can't Help Falling In Love With You
ALI’S P.O.VI turned around towards Matthew my face full of confusion.“Why are we here?” I asked, pointing to my parent’s house behind me.He stepped forward, grabbed my hand and said to me “Ali, I love you, and I know you love me. That gives me enough reassurance that you want to be together.”I smiled and nodded my head, agreeing with his comment, that I am in love with him. I love everything about this man.“I was raised to ask a woman’s parents for permission first, before you date the woman you are in love with,” he said, emphasizing on the word ‘first’ to me.That is so old school, I thought to myself.“I know it is old school,” Matthew said to me with a chuckle.My eyes widened and I blushed, not realizing I said that out loud.“But it is the right way to do this because it is me being respectful to your parents, and showing them that I want to be with you,” Matthew said to me as he pulled me forward and kissed my forehead.I sighed, then pulled back from him and replied “Okay,
