Falling For The Man I Married

Madi's POV:

"Where are you going?"

"To the marketing department," I answered Sandy's question when we met at the elevator.

"Why?"

"I'm going to get some files."

"Okay. Lunch later?"

"Sure." 

I went into the lift and pressed the floor of the marketing department. There were some employees inside who knew me and they smiled in recognition. I smiled back before facing the stainless door again.

After getting some documents requested by our boss himself, I now return to the Executive floor. While I was. waiting for the elevator door to open, someone on has called my name.

"Madielyn Davis?"

I turned and saw a very familiar man approaching with a genuine smile on his face.

"Madi."

When he's already in front of me, I finally recognized his face.

"Greg? Greg Anderson!" I squealed in excitement. He's one of my classmates from college. "What are you doing here?"

"The same question I was about to ask you." he smiled and his two cute dimples appeared on his face.

"Well, I'm working here. What about you? Wow! It's been a long time, you've changed a lot!" 

I can't believe who I was seeing at the moment. From a skinny and shy guy in college to now muscular and good looking man. He was one of my best companions back then.

"I can say the same. Look at you, you look so beautiful today."

"Ahh.. so are you saying I wasn't beautiful before?" I playfully narrowed my eyes.

"Oh no, no. What I'm saying is that you are more beautiful today. You look gorgeous to be exact."

I smiled as I rolled my eyes. "Tss! What a sweet talk, Greg."

"But I'm serious!" he chuckled at my comment.

We were both laughing when we entered the elevator. There were a few employees inside who also smiled at us.

"By the way, you haven't answered my question yet. What are you doing here?"

"Oh, sorry. I'm going to meet my cousin. He works here too."

"Wow! Really? From what department or which floor?"

"Uhm... executive."

"Nice! Big time!" I nudged him on the arm and he just laughed again.

"How about you, which floor are you in?"

"The same as your cousin." I winked at him as I proudly answered his question.

"That is what we called a real big-time, Madi! Nice, my friend from college is working at the largest company in Chicago and take note, on the executive floor!" 

"Of course." I grinned proudly. "I am 'Madi'.. the ever beautiful and confident Madi. What do you expect?"

Take note, I had to wait for all the remaining employees to get out of the elevator, before throwing that line.

"Oh my! You haven't changed. You're the same Madi I knew in college. And yeah, the ever proud and narcissistic Madi that I've ever known." he said laughing and clutching his stomach.

The elevator stopped at our designated floor, but before stepping out, I gave him a fake scowl.

"I hate you! I'm not narcissistic! I'm just being myself, duh!" I tried not to be swayed by his infectious laugh.

"Yeah, yeah, of course, you're not!" but he laughed again and later on, I also found myself laughing with him.
