ASHMATT ONE SHOTS

Part of the family?

Direk: Pack up everyone! That's the last shot. Thank you! (Everyone clapped and hugged each other)
It's the last taping day of Inday Bote and all of them exhausted after a 32hour straight taping. Matt felt sad that the show has to end but was happy also to be part of the Inday Bote family.
Kean: Pare, see you! It's nice to have worked with you.
Matt (took his hand and smile): Same here Kean. Nakakapagod din gumawa nag teleserye long hours an of taping.
Alex: No time for love, Matty? Thank you guys ha. Ang cool ng mga leading men ko (smiles)
Matt: Thank you din Lex! And I always make time for love (winks to her)
Alex: Naks naman! O siya let's go home and rest na.
Matt dialed Sarah's number and smile widely as he hears her voice.
Sarah: Hello Mahal! Good morning. Tapos na kayo?
Matt: Hi Love: Yup I'm on my way home. How about you? Nasa shooting ka?
Sarah: Oo e. Kuya PJ says hi. Nandito siya sa harap ko making kulit (smiles as Piolo smiles teasingly at her) Matulog ka na pagdating mo sa bahay niyo.
Matt: Hi to him too. Sinabi ko na sa kanya na alagaan ka. (Chuckles) Medyo hyper pa ko I don't think I can sleep. Saan location niyo?
Sarah: Gianmatteo! I know what you're thinking. Go home and sleep. Pahinga ka na po.
Matt: Ok I never win with you anyway. Bigyan pa sana kita ng power hug and I need one too. I still have my Team Forza photo shoot this afternoon.
Sarah: Ha? Hindi ka pa ba pagod? Grabe naman ang schedule mo.
Matt (laughs): It is nothing compared to yours. Pag nagsalita ka naman parang hindi din busy schedule mo.
Sarah (giggles): Oo nga no? I have to go now. Matatapos na ang break.
Matt: Don't forget Papa's birthday tomorrow. You have to be there daw. He misses his Barbie doll.
Sarah (laughs): Naku si Tito talaga. I'll be there. Hindi nga ako mag aASAP di ba? I miss you Mahal. Love you! I really have to go now. Bye.
Matt: Bye! Miss you to so much! Love you.
........................
Ivan: Bro, ganda ng smile mo a. Have you slept?
Matt: I slept for 2 hours yata. Ok na yun.
Ranvel: I think Sarah had good influence on you Bro. You still look fresh despite your busy schedule. Parang si Sarah lang.
Matt (laughs): Ikaw bro ha... I think crush mo rin girlfriend ko.
Ranvel (laughs): Popster ako no! But now ashmatt na. Solid! Seriously though Sarah kasi looks 16 without make up.
Ivan: Oo nga bro. She looks young.
Matt: I know. And she looks more beautiful without make up. Oh man! I miss her.
Ranvel (laughs): Bilib din naman ako sa inyong dalawa. Once or twice a week kayo magkita despite you busy schedules and you really find time to be with each other.
Matt: That's love bro (smiles widely)
Ivan: Woah! You are really bitten by a love bug.
Giorgia: Guys! Last frame for our shoot and it's a wrap. Enough of the chitchat (calls up to them).
...........................
Matt: Good morning Papa! Happy birthday! (Kisses his Dad as he saw him in the kitchen)
Papa Gian: Thank you son! Is Sarah coming later?
Matt: Yeah. She said she's coming. I will call her in a while. I think she's coming for lunch but can't stay until evening.
Papa Gian: Ok. I'm happy for you son. You really found your treasure. (Taps his back)
Matt (smiles): I know Pa. She's one rare gem.
Paolo: Kuya, is Ate Sarah here now? (Paolo calls out as he enters the kitchen)
Matt: Not yet. What are you excited about? Did you already greet Papa?
Paolo: Yeah I did. I just wanted to show her something.
Matt: What is it?
Paolo: No! I am only going to show it to her! Not you. (Turns around and ran to his room)
Matt scratches his head and his Dad laughed.
Papa Gian: I think if Paolo is older than you he will woe Sarah first. I think she's smitten by her.
Matt (laughed): Yeah. She is really a girl you will fall in love with.
Mommy Glenna: Hey guys! What are you two doing here? Hi honey (give her husband a peck on the lips and hugs him)
Papa Gian (placed his arms around her): We were just talking. So what did you prepare for my birthday?
Matt smiles as he stares at his parents. He can't wait to have Sarah as his wife... He sees their future as he stares at his parents.
Matt: Hi Love! Are you on your way here? (He says as soon as she picks up the phone)
Sarah: Hi Mahal! Ang aga pa naman. 8am pa lang. I will be leaving mga 9am.
Matt: I just miss you. Straight 6 days na tayo hindi nagkita dahil sa work. Tapos si Mama at Papa nang iinggit pa. Hay. I'm excited to see you. Buti na lang pumayag si Tito at Tita and we'll be together for almost the whole day.
Sarah: Oo no. May occasion naman e. Birthday naman ni Tito.
Matt: Sumbong kita you called him Tito. Di ba he told you to call him Papa? (Teases her)
Sarah (giggles): Nahiya kasi ako and hindi ako sanay.
Matt (chuckles): It's ok Love. Maybe in the future. Call me if you're near na. Paolo is also excited to see you. He wants to show you something daw.
Sarah: A ok. I think he's going to show me his drawing. He texted me kanina.
Matt: What?! Text mates kayo?
Sarah (laughs): Oo naman. He's such a sweet kid. See you later. Tawag ako ni Daddy. Bye! Love you.
Matt: Ok bye. Love you too.
................
Sarah was all smiles as she went out from her van and Matteo welcomed her into his arms and hugged her tight.
Matt: Oh I need this! I miss you so much (kissed her hair as he hugged her tight)
Sarah (hugged him tight and chuckles): I miss you too Love. But it would also help if you can help me breathe for awhile. (Kissed his cheek as soon as he released her from the hug)
Matt (pouts): I guess I deserve more than that.
Sarah (slaps his arm lightly): Behave! Patience Love (smiles)
Paolo: Ate Sarah, you're here (runs to her and hugged her)
Sarah: Hi there sweetie. (Hugged him and ruffled his hair)
Paolo: I want to show you something (grabbed her hand and pulled)
Matt (looking annoyed): Pao, your Ate Sarah just arrived. Later na and why do you text her?
Paolo: Kuya, because I have her number. Besides she told me that I can text her whenever I want. Right, Ate? (Sarah just nodded)
Papa Gian: Hey, my Barbie doll is here. Hi there hija.
Sarah (approached Papa Gian and kissed him on the cheek): Good morning, Tito! happy birthday! (Smiles)
Papa Gian: I told you to call me Papa. (Laughs) You really are a shy girl. Boys let Sarah first go inside and settle down. Paolo, go to you mama. Let your Kuya and Ate Sarah have their time together.
Paolo: But Papa! (Kept silent when he saw his Dad looked at him sternly) Ok. Later Ate.
Sarah (felt sad for Paolo): It's ok sweetie. I'll see your drawing later.
Matt: Thanks Dad. Let's go inside Love. Who's with you pala? (He asked her as he held her hand)
Sarah: Just Kuya Joe. Si Ate Johna was with me pero magsashopping daw muna. She'll come back for me later.
Matt: Oh ok. Tara dun banda sa pool. So we can talk in private.
Sarah: Ok I'll just say hi to Tita and Giorgia first.
The two of them were sitting near the pool area with Matt's arm around Sarah and she leans towards his chest.
Sarah: Hindi ka ba pagod Mahal? Di ba inumaga na kayo sa taping?
Matt: Ok lang. I was able to sleep well naman last night. Kaya nga I need you here to recharge.
Sarah: Ako nga medyo pagod. Tomorrow we will go to the beach for our next location shoot.
Matt: Yeah. You look tired. You're getting thinner. Have you been eating well? I don't want you getting sick.
Sarah: Kumakain naman po ako Sir (laughs) Can we just stay like this forever (snuggles to him closer)
Matt (smiles and pulls her closer and kissed her hair): I'd like that. You smell good Love.
Sarah (laughs): Ano ba yan? Pati ba naman amoy ko (smelled his shirt as she hugged him tighter) You smell good too, Mahal (smiles)
Matt: How's your movie with Piolo?
Sarah: It's doing great. I'm nervous about playing the guitar though. Mahirap din pala maging rocker.
Matt: Kaya mo yan. Ikaw pa. So may kissing scene ba?
Sarah: We're not sure yet. Wala naman sinasabi si Direk Dan. Ok lang sa yo?
Matt: Whatever you decide, Love. I'm here to support you. Besides it's work. I'm an actor too so I know it's just work. Parang sa amin ni Belle dati just pure work.
Sarah: Thanks Love. Pero I'm not sure if kaya ko. Ang gwapo kasi ni Kuya Peej.
Matt: Mas gwapo pa sa akin?!
Sarah: Ikaw syempre ang mas gwapo for me. (Pinches his cheek and gave him a peck on the lips)
Matt (smiles and pouts): Pwede bang mas longer kiss? (Leans closer to her)
Giorgia: Ahem! Ahem! Guys tawag na kayo ni Mama. We will have lunch na.
Matt (annoyed with interruption): Remind me to kill you later sis! (Giorgia laughed while Sarah blushed and pinched him)
Sarah: Ikaw talaga! Let's go Love.
The family had lunch filled with laughter and teasing mostly about Matt. After lunch, Sarah and Paolo had several minutes together mostly Paolo drawing and she teaches him.
Paolo: Wow Ate! You can draw really well. You're the best! (Gets up and hugs her)
Matt: Hey hey kiddo! That's my girlfriend. (walks to them and sits beside Sarah)
Sarah (laughs): Ikaw naman pati bata papatulan mo. Don't mind your Kuya Pao. You can hug me anytime. (Laughs as Paolo sticks his tongue out to Matt)
Matt: I hate to interrupt your drawing session but I have to take your Ate out. Punta muna tayo ng ATC Love. We will come back for the mass na lang.
Sarah: A ok. Sige I have to buy something din sa Rustans. I have to home earlier later ha? And you don't have to go with me pauwi.
Matt: But love... Hatid na lang kita.
Sarah: No buts, Gianmatteo.
The two of them spent some time at ATC then went back for the thanksgiving mass for the family. Several friends of the family came for dinner....then it was time for Sarah to go home. Matt's parents thanked her for coming over and Matt walked her to her van.
Matt: When will we see each other again? (Squeezes her hand as he held it)
Sarah: I don't know yet. The Voice Kids is coming up. So may nga promotions pa and the movie with Piolo.
Matt (sighs): Well, we're both busy. I will be shooting my first action film and finalizing my album. Baka yong with Shaina mga 3rd quarter this year.
Sarah (smiles): Di ka rin busy no? Nakapagtrain ka pa for Ironman?
Matt: I will definitely make time for that.... GiroLuca 2015 next week so punta akong Bohol......And I will also make time for you (smiles) Maybe when I get back from Bohol.
Sarah (smiles): I'm the last person you have to worry about because I exactly know how to juggle time. Sorry I have to go now.
Matt (hugs her tight before she went to her van and kissed the top of her head while she leans on his chest): Ingat sa pag-uwi. I love you! Magkakaalbum na ko this year so next year pwede na tayong pakasal? Nakausap naman natin si Father kanina.
Sarah (laughs and playfully slaps his arm): Gagi! Hay naku Gianmatteo. We will get to that. I love you too! Bye. I have to go dadaanan pa namin si Ate sa Greenbelt.
They gave each other a final hug and peck on the lips.
