ALI'S P.O.V
I don't know if I should be happy or sad with what just happened.
I mean... Should I be happy that I got the job? Or should I be sad, because I'll be working for Mr. Dumb nuts? Wait, I mean Mr. Day.
I mean... even though he's gorgeous, sexy... Wait! What am I saying!?
Stay focused Ali! This is a job!
Don't forget who you're working for! So what if he's handsome and has the body of a greek god. He's still a arrogant jackass.
As soon as Mr. Day left the room I called Dillion to tell him the good news.
"Dillion!" I screamed through the phone.
"Oh yeah, baby scream my name!" said Dillion yelling in a teasing voice.
"Ewww! Gross Dill!" I said shaking my head. Even though he couldn't see me.
He laughed and said "Im kidding! Im kidding! So whats up? How did the interview go?
"Well...I have good news and bad news. Which one do you wanna hear first?"
"The bad news first, because the good news will make it better in the end." said Dillion.
"The bad news is that the CEO of this company is a arrogant jackass" I said in a depressing tone.
"Okay... So whats the good news?" he replied.
"I got the job?" replying more with a question.
He gave a low whistle and said "Wow."
"I know right!?" I replied.
"Look Ali, lets just go out to celebrate that you AT LEAST got a job." said Dillion
Even though that sounded more like a insult instead of a compliment, and it's been a while since I've last hung out with Dillion. I replied with a simple "Okay."
"Great. I'll see you at the Lias Restaurant" said Dillion.
"Bye Ali!"
"Bye Dill"
After I hung up, I left the building to go home and get ready for tonight.
ALIS P.O.V As soon as I got home, I dropped my purse on the ground and went straight to go and get ready. I took a quick shower and picked out a red mid length dress that showed off my curves and straightened my hair. Then I put on my mascara and lip gloss and hurried out the door. When I arrived at the Restaurant, I walked in and spotted Dillion sitting at a booth in the back. "Hi Dill." I said, taking the seat across from him. "Took you long enough. I waited here for hours! People were giving me pity looks because they thought I was being "stood up" by my date." Said Dillon. Putting air quotes on stood up. "What? First of all, this isn't a date. And second, Dillion. It takes twenty minutes getting here from my house." I said in a amused tone. "I know that! But THEY don't know that. A couple of minutes before you walked in, a old lady started hitting on me. Don't get me wrong, I love cougars but I don't like my cougars at the age of 60! That lady is old enough to my great grand
ALIS P.O.VOnce Dillion and I finished our food, I wiped my mouth with a napkin and laid it down on my plate and looked at a worried Dillion."Okay Dillion. Now spill. Whats do you have to ask?" I asked. "Ali... can Dina and I move in with you? I can't afford to pay for my apartment anymore. The money Im making is not enough for me and Dina to live in our apartment anymore. Ever since the money mom and dad left behind for us ran out, its been hard paying for Dinas medication bills and other bills i've been receiving in the mail too." said Dillion in a soft and sad tone. Dillion has a little sister named Dina. Dillion and Dina have been living in a small apartment ever since their mom and dad passed away two years ago from a car accident. They used to live in a house on the suburbs but had to move because they couldn't afford to pay the bills, due to their parents death. Dina is Dillions seven years old little sister and is diagnosed with epilepsy. The medication she needs is very ex
ALIS P.O.V
ALIS P.O.V When we got out of our cab, Mark and I waited in line to order our food. Sadly there are eight people in front of us. Meaning we're going to have to wait for a while in line. I hope I wont be late for work. "So what do you do for a living?" said Mark as we waited in line. "Im a P.A for the CEO of Lexon Corp." I said. "Wow. Thats great." said Mark "Thanks. Today is my first day and the guy that I was arguing with this morning, is my boss." I said with a small laugh. He laughed and said "You've got guts, if your're going to argue with your boss." "Thank you, I guess. I've only known him for almost two whole days and so far, the only thing I've learned about him is that sometimes he can be a complete asshole." He laughed and said " Whats so bad about him?" "Well he —-" "Excuse me miss, are you ready to take your order?" said the Starbucks cashier, interrupting my conversation with Mark. "Yes, I would like to take a pumpkin spice latte and a toasted bagel wi

Matthews P.O.VMrs. Finkleston folded her hands together and said "Hmmm.. Where shall I start?""Grandma there's no need to bore them with old stories. I think its time for us to go." I said smiling to her, now hoping to get out of here as fast as I can. Even if we did stay and I let her make up some fake embarrassing stories, I don't want her 60 year old mind to go overboard and make me really embarrassed. If she's going to say an embarrassing story, I'll deal with the 'Peed in the bed' story, or a 'Calling my teacher Mama' story.One of my real embarrassing stories would be when my real grandma Dila Day, caught me masturbating in my room when I was sixteen and let me tell you, dinner that night was really awkward. We had to hold hands to pray for our food and guess who's hand I was holding?...Grandma Dila. Ever since that day, grandma Dila made sure to never sit by me at the dinner table ever again. "Oh no dear, its alright. Im sure we have time." said Mrs. Finkleston breaking me

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
Matthew’s P.O.V“Okay, now put this back on,” I said to Ali as I handed her back the black tie.She sighed and raised her eyebrow “Is this really necessary? I mean, I already know we are going to see your mother.”I laughed “I was just kidding Ali.”Her mouth formed into an ‘O’ and she nodded her head. 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
Ali’s P.O.VI picked up the phone and greeted with annoyance “Hello?”A woman’s voice greeted me “Hello! My name Margie, I am calling to ask if you are interested in buy—” she didn’t get to finish, because I hung up on her.I looked at Matthew and pouted “It was a freaking telemarketer.”We both rolled our eyes.“Now, where were we?” I asked with a sly smile.Just then, the song by Elvis Presley ended. 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
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
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,
