That Same Night

Ali's POV

It was just becoming night when Emily parked her car in front of my house. I turned in my seat to face her. When my eyes met hers I couldn't help but smile. I looked down and grabbed her hand.

"I had fun at the beach." She smiled and leaned over and kissed me.

"Me too." She said when she pulled away. I moved my fingers against the back of her neck.

"I love you." I said as I stared into her eyes. Her eyes glistened with tears before she blinked them away and smiled a little.

"I love you too baby." I pulled her face down to mine again and kissed her. When it felt like I couldn't breathe I pulled away and leaned my forehead against hers.

"I'll call you as soon as dinner is over and I take my shower." She nodded her head.

"I'll wait up. You better get in there." She said as she looked toward my house. I sighed and whined a little.

"I know. I just...I just wish I could stay with you forever." She smiled as she cupped my cheek with her hand.

"One day, you won't have to wish that. It'll be a reality."

"I can't wait." I said honestly as I smiled at her.

"Me either." She let go of me and got out of the car. Walking over to my side, she opened the door and extended a hand out to me. "I knew that this was the only way you would get out of the car." She said smiling. As I looked into her eyes I saw sadness behind the normally sparkly brown eyes. I pulled her to me and wrapped my arms around her tightly and put my face in the crook of her neck. I felt her hand on my back and she started to rub up and down. "It's gonna be okay Als." I shook my head.

"What if he says 'No'?" I breathed out as tears clouded my eyes. She pulled back from me and looked me in my eyes before using the pads of her thumbs and wiped the tears that escaped away.

"Then we'll figure it out. Okay?" I nodded my head and she pulled me into a hug once more and kissed my neck before I pulled away and walked toward the house. "Remember to call me." She yelled out before getting into her car and starting it. She waited until I got into the house before she drove off. I moved away from the window and walked towards the stairs.

"Alison." I closed my eyes and blew out a breath when my mother called me. Damn she has super hearing.

"Yes?" I called out.

"Dinner is almost ready."

"Okay, I'm just going to put my things away." I said before I ran upstairs. When I got to my room I hung my purse up in my closet and threw my phone on my bed before walking into my bathroom. When I walked into my room I heard my phone beeped. I picked it up from off of my bed and checked my messages.

My Heart 💓- I love you 😘😘😘 I smiled at Emily's text and replied back.

I love you more.❤️❤️

My Heart 💓-Only two hearts? ☹️ I rolled my eyes smiling.

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Is that better baby?

My Heart 💓-Much better.

"Alison! Dinner's ready." Jason yelled from downstairs.

"Oh my God Jason, you could've at least went upstairs to tell her." I heard my mom yell. I put my phone in my pocket and walked out of my room. When I walked into the dining room Jason was already in his seat and my mother was sitting in her normal spot. As soon as I sat down, my dad walked into the room and sat down at the head of the table.
