A Remarkable Summer

Chapter 8

"Matthew Lee Espinosa, that was the cutest thing anyone has ever said to me" I smiled.

"Ali... Will you be my girlfriend?"

Pov: Alison

"Matt" I said while a tear ran down my face. I really liked Matt but I feel like we are taking things to fast. I would love to be his girlfriend but I dont think im ready.

"Matt, I really like you but I dont want to take things to fast, plus your always traveling and to be honest I dont know if I can handle it." I said while more and more tears rushed down my face. His face immediatley dropped and I know that I hurt him.

"Ali, please" He pleaded and I saw his eyes become glossy. I just looked down because I couldnt bare to look him in the eyes. 

"Ali, please look at me" He said. I slowly looked at him and he had tears running down his face. I then kissed him. The kiss was filled with sadness. I was going to miss him so much. I then pulled away.

"Why-why did you kiss me" He asked with confusion clear in his voice. 

"It was a goodbye kiss Matt" I said while looking down again.

"But Ali, I lov-" I cut him off by putting my finger against his lips.

"Matt, you dont love me. This is just a phase your going through. To be honest I would kill to be your girlfriend. Your always going to be traveling though and I just dont think I could handle not being able to be with you." I said and by then I was really crying. With this I got up and began walking towards the stairs. Before I started going up, I turned around.

"You can leave whenever you want, bye Matthew" I said and began to walk up the stairs when I was pulled back. Lips then crashed into mine. Finally he let go and I gave him a confused look.

"That was my goodbye kiss" He said and then walked up the stairs. Shortly after, I heard the front door open and close. 

I then fell onto my knees and began crying uncontrollably. I couldnt help it, I was hurting so much. That was probably the hardest thing I have ever done. I realy do love Matthew but I know that he doesnt really love me. After thinking about it, I realized that the relationship could never work. 

I was curled up in a little ball on the floor while quietly sobbing when I heard the front door open and close. I then heard all the girls voices fill the house but I couldnt move.

"Hey guys, wheres Ali?" I asked. They all shrugged their shoulders so I decided to go look for her. I went to her room first but she wasnt in there so I decided to check the movie theater. Sure enough she was there curled up in a ball while balling her eyes out.

"Oh my gosh Ali what wrong? What happened?" I asked while freaking out.

"Ma-Matt a-asked me to be h-his girl-girlfriend and I said n-no because it wouldnt ha-have wo-worked out" She said in between sobs. I felt so bad for her, I know how much she likes Matt. 

I went over to her and began rubbing her back and telling her to calm down but she just wouldnt. I was really worried because she wouldnt stop crying and I had no idea what to do. 

"Ali, please calm down, it will be alright" I said while trying to comfort her.

"NO-NO IT WONT" She screamed while standing up. Woah I wasnt expecting that.

She then began throwing anything she could get her hands on. She knocked things off of tables and kicked things that were on the floor. She must be really hurting.

"Ali, please calm down." I said again. I was interupted by my phone buzzing. I just ignored it because I needed to be supporting Ali right now.

I gently grabbed her arm and pulled her to me. She didnt jerk away so I guess she was finally calming down. She layed he head on my shoulder and began to sob again.

"Shhh-Shhhh Ali, Its okay" I said while slowly rocking her.

She eventually fell asleep in my arms after crying so much. What am I going to do?
