Emison: A True Love Story

Building Trust

~Emily's POV~

I woke up with Ali in my arms. A smile instantly grew across my face. She was so stunning when she was asleep. She started to open her eyes.

"Good morning, Beautiful." I whispered into her ear. She rubs her eyes, adjusting to the light.  I pull her close and give her a gentle kiss on the forehead.

"Good morning" Ali said in her morning voice. It was kind of groggy, but somehow kind of sexy. She flipped over so she was facing me. I leaned in and gave her a light, yet passionate kiss. I couldn't believe how gorgeous she is. I am completely in love with her. I just wish I knew I could trust her with myself. I really don't want to get my heart broken again.

"How about we get some breakfast," Ali suggested, "I'm starving." We both rolled out of bed and trotted down the cold, wooden stairs. Jason and Mr. DiLaurentis weren't home. I whipped up some chocolate chip pancakes and topped them with strawberries and whipped cream.  With it, I poured us each a glass of milk and set it next to our fresh pancakes.

"Oh my, Em. Those smell delicious!" Ali exclaimed as she sat down and tasted the pancakes Emily had prepared. "And they taste even better! I never knew you were such a good cook, bab- I mean Em." She blushed and looked at her feet shyly. Ali was never shy. Maybe she really did change. I was starting to trust her more. I wish she would've said it, though.

~Ali's POV~

What was I thinking? I can't call her babe, yet. She can't even trust me. She didn't seem too impacted by it, though. I was glad she didn't make a scene of it. The last thing I needed was a set back. I'm trying my hardest to prove to Em that I've changed and I truly love her. I just want her to be mine. And only mine.

"So, since it's Sunday, what are your plans for today?" I asked, hopeful that she could stay with me for a little while longer. Emily had her thinking expression spread across her face. She opened her mouth as if to speak, but then quickly shut it. A few moments later, she finally spoke.

"Well, I have some homework to do before tomorrow, but other than that I'm free. Why? Do you have any plans for today?" Emily questioned in a sweet, non-interrogating way. I loved that about her. She could say the meanest thing, but the way she said it would make you think she just recited love poetry to you. I just love her so much and I wish she would realize that.

"Um, no, but I was hoping we could hang out. Maybe we could head to your house and get our homework done." I suggested. "Uh, sure. We can leave as soon as we finish breakfast." Emily answered. This was perfect. I had a plan.

~Emily's POV~

We finished our pancakes and did the dishes together. It was great. I fell more in love with her by just doing dishes. She had my heart and I knew that, I just couldn't let her know that. She had to prove herself to me. We were heading to my house soon to do our homework. I was hoping Ali had something planned out for today that would prove to me that I could trust her. I want to tell her I love so bad. I want her to be mine.

"Are you ready?" Alison asked. I nodded and we headed out the door and hopped into my car. The ride over was pretty silent, the only sound being the radio faintly playing in the background. I was left with my thoughts.

I pulled into my driveway and walked into my house, Ali trailing behind me.
"Oh my God! Alison! You're..alive?" My mother screamed as we walked through the front door. I forgot Ali and her parents didn't want the public to know just yet.

"Yes. I'm very glad to be home." Ali responded. She gave a genuine smile.

"Mom, we were just going to get some homework done." I quickly said after I realized there had been an awkward silence.

"Okay, I have a few errands to run. I'll be home in a few hours." She said as she grabbed her purse and strolled out the door.

When we got to my room, we started on our homework.

~Alison's POV~

We are almost done with our homework and all I can think about is the plan I have for this afternoon. We finally finished our homework.

"I'm going to go take a nap. All this homework made me super tired. Can you come to my house after though? In like an hour?" I made up a lame excuse.

"Yeah sure. Just text me when you wake up." Emily replied. Apparently she bought the excuse. I grabbed my stuff and headed to my house. Since Emily drove, I had to walk, but I didn't mind.

When I arrived at my house, I got in my car and headed to the flower shop.

I purchased rose pedals. I also went to a book store and bought Great Expectations by Charles Dickens. Oh the memories.

Tonight was the night I will, hopefully, convince Em to trust me.

       |One and a half hours later| 

~Emily's POV~

I had just got out of the shower when I noticed I had a text from Ali. I got butterflies.

AD: Hey Em. Are you busy?
EF: No
AD: Can you spend the night at my house?
EF: Yeah. I'll be there in 10

I wonder what Ali has in store for tonight. I don't know why, but I feel like something big is going to happen.

              *Author's Note*
I have so much in store for this story. The rest of the girls will come into the story soon. I promise it's not just Ali and Em 😂 I'll update soon.
