I arrived at the door, the flashbacks of the last time I was here were haunting me. As soon as I came in her sister took me without greetings to the living room.

Ms.Grey: Welcome Maya! It is lovely to meet you again!

Me: The pleasure is mine Ms.Grey.

Mr.Grey: I am sure that it feels a little bit weird considering that the last time you were here things ended badly. But since you are our daughter's friend...

Vanessa: One of my best friends!

I was very confused, we hated each other. At his moment Matthew, dressed with black pants and shirt, came into the room. He approached me and greeted me by shacking my hand. The Buttler served us champagne as I was listening to Vanessa talking about her shoe problem.

Vanessa: You don't get it! My heels have damaged! I think I'm having a panic attack! Look I'm turning red!

Matthew bursted out laughing.

Matthew: That's not a panic attack.

Vanessa: Oh yeah? What do you know?

He looked at me, holding his laugh, but sooner or later I chocked on my champagne. We both started laughing really hard.

Mr.Grey: Now tell me what is going on here? Are you mocking my daughter?

Matthew: No dad, I just made a weird face to make Maya shock on her champagne. Sorry.

We moved to the dinner table. Again, same as last time, everything was good and the food was amazing.

Ms.Grey: So, we talked to Sofia. She likes you. You're going on a date with her tomorrow at 9p.m. We know her father very well. We understood you want a smart girl. And Sofia is smart and pretty.

Matthew: Sorry mom. I don't think I want to.

Mr.Grey: Matthew it's not a question. Our company needs it. You too will have an engage party in 3 months.

Matthew: Engage like in marriage? I barely know her! I saw her 2 times when I was 14.

Vanessa: Now come on! No!

Mr.Grey: Well why not Vanessa?

Vanessa: Matthew as someone. If you want an explanation come with me and let's watch a movie with me.

Matthew and I looked at each other very concerned of his sister's plan. We followed her along with Matthew's parents.

Vanessa turned on the giant screen. It was a video of me and Matthew at school earlier.

Video:

*Matthew: How many time do you have right now?*

*Me: 45 minutes*

*Matthew *smirking*: Want a round 2?*

End of the video.

Matthew: I was talking about a round 2 in a game.

Vanessa showed the part of the video where we were kissing. We were doomed. I thought a blank was gonna settle down but no. He's mother seemed to had taken the devil's tale.

Ms.Grey *angrily*: Matthew Thomas Grey! Are you kidding me? Her?! Really? Again Matthew, the daughter of a drugged man is not a good girlfriend! 

Mr.Grey: And Matthew, son, look at her. The way she stands, the way she talks...it's not lady like.

Ms.Grey *angrily*: And you!

Shit now they were attacking me directly.

Ms.Grey *angrily*: You dare coming into my house? After kissing and having sex with our gentle lovely angel boy?! How dare you?! You're the dishonor of your family!

Me: Trust me I'm not the worst...

You know those moment were you should've shut up? Yeah that.

Ms.Grey *screaming*: You dare answer me?!

Me: Yes.

Why god why did I have to say that.

Ms.Grey: Go away and never come back! Matthew if I ever see you again with that thing...

Thing? Oh I'm sorry I missed a chapter. I took my purse and got out of that house as fast as I could. Matthew followed me to the streets.

Matthew: I'm sorry Maya, I can't imagine how you feel right now...

He was so nice to me. It was very cute. The stars were shining into his beautiful eyes. At this moment I knew I loved him. It's only been a month but I loved him. He was looking at me scared that I was mad at him. I kissed him with passion under the moonlight, it felt perfect.

Me: I can't tell you that what they said didn't hurt me Matthew. But I'm not gonna look at you and seek for your approval telling you again about how this hurt me. I'm not gonna say "Don't worry we'll get through that together". Matthew I trust you now. Don't worry. I know you're here.

Matthew *smiling*: How?

Me *confused*: What?

Matthew *smiling*: How do you knew exactly what I needed to hear?

Me *laughing*: I have super powers.

Matthew *smirking*: I have an idea.

He called a cab. We stopped in front of a giant hotel. Matthew looked the keys to the room he just had booked. I entered. It was splendid, high ceilings, a view on the Empire State Building and a gigantic bed. He went to the bathroom. When he came out he was wearing a bathrobe.

Me *laughing*: Matthew what are you wearing?

He took off the robe...

Matthew *smirking*: Nothing. So want a round 2?

Me: Yeah I do.

He came very close to me. He took of my shirt while taking down my pants. I was now naked. He looked at me up and down before pushing me on the bed. Again, you all know what happened next.

The sun got up as I was waking up, Matthew was starring at me. He kissed my neck.

Matthew *smiling*: Morning Love.

He was putting his arm around my waist pulling himself closer to me.

Me *smiling*: Last night was good.

Matthew *smiling*: Yeah it really was.

We got dressed and had break fast. We came back towards noon back into our room. Matthew took a call before coming back to me looking very concerned. He started crying.

Me: Hey what's wrong?

Matthew: My...uh...my dad is sick. Very sick. He's in the hospital. My mom told me two things he want me to know right now. First of all if he dies, he wants me to take over the company. Second of all...he wants me to break up with you.

Me: What?

Matthew: I'm breaking up Maya, that's the wish of my dying father.
