Last week na ng detention ngayon, and para akong tangang excited na naglalakad papunta sa study hall.I was passing by the library, when someone pulled my hand.
"Cloud!" I hissed. "Ano bang ginagawa mo? Late na tayo." I whispered.
"Hindi tayo male late dahil hindi tayo mag aatend." he whispered back. "Follow me.." bulong pa nito, I discreetly followed him to a secluded area inside the library.
"Is this going to be our make out place?" I giggled at the thought.
Ay wow, malala na itong mga reaksiyon ko.
Cloud didn't answer, instead he pushed me against the bookshelf and gently kissed my neck. I had to stop myself from moaning because he found the right spot at the back of my ear. His lips were doing wonders to my nerves.
Oh my god.
"I couldn't stop thinking about doing this to you all day at practice..Bakit ba kasi nagtali ka pa ng buhok kanina? Nakapikit ka pa habang sumasayaw.." I could feel his breath against my skin and my senses had never felt so..euphoric.
"Cloud.." I whimpered. "That feels..good.."His kisses had reduced me into a putty. Nasa library nga kami, pero feeling ko nasa malayong lugar kami kung saan kami lang dalawa ang tao.
"You taste so sweet." he rasped against my neck then he looked at me with hooded eyes, hindi ko ma decipher kung anong emosyon yun, I think it has a mixture of urgency and something else.
Bloody hell, was that desire?
Hindi ko masabi ang gusto kong sabihin, dahil ramdam ko kung ano man ang nararamdaman niiya. Kaya kinabig ko na lang ang ulo niya at hinalikan din ito.Both my hands raking his hair while his hands do wonders..I could feel his touch on my back, on my waist, on my ribs and on my ass at the same time.
Again, yung mga kissing practice namin ni Marj last summer ay super worth it.
Bloody hell.
Cloud broke the kiss, but his lips went back to my neck, not gentle this time but it felt so amazing. Lahat ng nararamdaman ko ngayon ay bago..everything is a first..and somehow, a part of me is afraid of what it entails.
I felt his fingers fumbled through the zipper of my hoodie and I could only watch him do it. Parte ng utak ko was saying to make him stop--pero siguro 3% lang yung nagprotesta kaya hinayaan ko siya.
I've never felt so bold like this before.
I had to cover my mouth when his lips went lower and he began sucking the top of my cleavage, his hands gripping, caressing and pulling my ass making me aware of his hard on.
OH MY GOD.
"Cloud, we have to stop.." I finally came to my senses and gently pushed him away.
"Holy s**t Cara.." We were both out of breath and flustered.
Inayos ko yung jacket ko at kinuha yung salamin ko.Again I didn't know when it left my face. I was so drunk in Cloud's kisses that I tend to forget things.
"Sweetie, look at me.." Cloud turned me to face him and raked his hair. "Sumobra po ba ako? Too soon? I'm sorry I can't seem to control myself." He held both my hands maintaining a distance between us, as if afraid he'll break me or something.
"Hindi naman.." Umiling ako at ngumiti dito. "I enjoyed it. You make me..feel good.." I whispered.
"I love making you feel good.." He let go of my hand and tucked my hair against my ear, and adjusted my glasses. "Please do both of us a favor and let your hair down all the time.." he said.
"Bakit naman?" I frowned.
"Because then I would be tempted to ravage your neck even in public places." He whispered against my ear, making me squirm.
"Duly noted." I replied.
Waaaaaaaaaaa.
-----
Nakahiga na ako ngayon, ni hindi ko nga magawang maligo pa dahil parang ayaw ko pa maalis yung amoy sakin ni Cloud.
Malala ka na talaga,Caroline.
Para akong tangang nakatingala sa ceiling na pinuno namin ni Marj ng glow in the dark stickers nung nasa grade 4 kami.
Ganito ba talaga pag may boyfriend? Oh my god.
Boyfriend ko na ba siya talaga? I mean..
Pero sabi niya kasi.
"Arrrrrghhhh!!!!" Dumapa ako sa unan at sumigaw doon.
I feel so kilig, yet uncertain at the same time.
Nung sa tingin ko malalalock jaw na ako kakasigaw, tumihaya na ulit ako at nagbawi ng hingal. I want to tell Marj so bad, para naman may sumagot dito sa mga tanong ko, but I am skeptical pa. Besides, Cloud and I agreed to keep this to ourselves muna.
I am not that naive naman, I mean seeing Marj and Sebastian all lovey dovey all the time, and seeing countless romantic movies, hindi naman na ako totally clueless sa kung anong nangyayari samin ni Cloud.
I mean, I like him. I like him so much. In fact, I am beginning to get addicted to his smile.
To that pink lips of his.
At yung malalaki niyang braso.
Bloody hell.
Dumapa ulit ako at ibinaon sa unan ang mga sigaw ko.
Crap.
I like him too much.
----
"Hi." I greeted, medyo pinigilan ko ang kilig at pinakalma ang boses sa pag sagot sa tawag ni Cloud.
Syempre hinintay ko muna mag 3 rings para hindi naman masyadong halata na excited akong makausap siya.
"Sweetieee..Miss kita."
I bit my lip.
Pinasimplehan ko pang kinurot ang legs ko habang nakahiga pa din dito sa kwarto.
Narinig ko ang marahang pagtawa niya.
Bloody hell, his raspy laugh made my nerves go nuts.
"Wala ka bang gustong sabihin din sakin?"
Oh.
Ohhh.
Oo nga pala para akong tangang nakangiti lang pero sumisigaw sa utak ko.
"I..I miss you too."
Lame.
Tinampal ko ang noo ko at dumapa sa kama.
"What are you doing po? Nakauwi ka na ba?"
I smiled at his sweetness. Gusto sana niya ako ihatid kaso yun na nga, may mga bagay na hindi pa namin pwede gawin ngayon dahil secret pa lang kami.
Arrrggh.
"Hmmnn.." Umayos ako ng posisyon at sumandal sa headboard ng higaan.
"Tang ina. Stop making those sexy sounds."
I felt my cheeks turn crimson red.
"Sorry?"
"Damn Cara. No, I'm sorry. Anyways, nakauwi na po ako. I'm laying in my bed already. The practice was as usual..tiring." Narinig ko ang pag buntong hininga niya.
I can sense na mas malalim pa sa basketball practice ang ibig niyang sabihin.
"But you love basketball. Nothing that is worth it is easy Cloud." Sumimangot ako sa mga sinabi ko.
Lalim eh.
"I know. Mas better na din ngayon kasi andiyan ka na. I mean, I have you now. I have you right?" Skeptical niyang sabi.
"Yes. You have me." Ni hindi ako nagdalawang isip na sumagot.
"Good. Now that you are my girlfriend,"
"I'm your girlfriend??"
Okay, medyo oa yung tono ko, I just..I just can't believe that he is confirming it himself.
"Hell yes, bakit ano bang akala mo hindi ako seryoso satin?" May tampo ang boses niya.
"Ofcourse not..ano kasi.."
"What is it sweetie?"
"I'm..I mean I wasn't sure what we are. I mean ni hindi ka nga nanligaw."
I heard him laugh.
"Nauna lang ang label natin Cara, but keep in mind na araw araw kitang liligawan at susuyuin."
I bit my lip.
Ugggh.
Kilig much.
"I'll hold you on your words. Pero paano yung mga babae mo?"
Bloody hell, natanong ko talaga yun?
"I told you Cara. Ikaw na lang ngayon. They were merely passerbys. Hindi ko idedefend ang sarili ko, obviously I played around, I fooled around. Hindi kita binobola ngayong sinasabi kong, you are different. Because you are. You are the exemption. I respect you a lot. And from now on, I promise that it'll only be you."
Okay, kung pwede lang ibaba itong phone at magsisigaw ngayon.
But I channelled my inner mahinhin in me and contained my giddiness.
"Okay." I replied simply.
Pero deep daw para na akong timang na sumasayaw sa kilig.
"Okay?" Medyo frustrated yung tono niya. "Ikaw hindi ka ba mag papromise?"
I giggled, and he groaned.
"You're evil sweetie. Mag promise ka." Parang batang lambing nito.
"I promise."
"You promise what? Sabihin mo please?" This time may paawa effect ang boses niya.
I smiled.
"I promise na ikaw lang po para sakin Cloud. Only you for Cara."
"f**k yes."

"Goodmorning mommy, goodmorning daddy!" Extra chirpy ang boses ko ngayong umaga at alam na alam ko kung bakit.
My parents looked at me like I have grown 4 heads or something.
Okay, so sobrang aga ko kasing nagising, and natagpuan ko na lang ang sarili kong nagluluto ng bacon, sinangag at egg.
Naka sleepwear pa silang dalawa pag pasok sa kitchen and I guess nagising sila sa amoy nung niluluto ko.
"Kain na tayo parents?" Pinagpag ko ang aking mga kamay sa apron na suot ko--yes, I feel like cooking, though I am not sure kung tama ang timpla. Medyo mahapdi nga yung kamay ko dahil napaso nung mantika.
This is my first attempt in cooking using fire--I mean, yes I can make kimbap, salad at kahit anong hindi gumagamit ng lutuan--because my daddy is that protective, kahit nga katulong wala kami dahil daw baka kidnapin ako.
Para silang zombie na naupo sa mesa at nagtinginan sabay tawa.
"You cooked." Daddy stated.
I glared my eyes at him.
"Obviously daddy, I made it for us. Mommy, tikman mo nga sinangag baka kasi maalat?" I bit my lip, and mom automatically took a spoon full. Agad ko naman nakita ang pag ngiwi niya.
"Sabi ko nga, kaya ayan may plain rice." My smile and chirpyness didn't falter. Buti na lang may rice cooker, although may duda ako kasi medyo may tubig tubig pa yung kanin.
BUT IT'S THE THOUGHT THAT COUNTS!
Umikot ako para tumapat kay daddy at nilagyan ng kanin at ulam ang plato niya. Ganun din ang ginawa ko kay mommy.
I felt her hand on my forehead at nakita ko ang pagsimangot nito.
Kaya sinimangutan ko din.
"Hija, wala ka namang sakit." Kinabig nito ako at pinaupo sa legs niya. Mommy is quite small, halos magka height lang kami, but nonetheless, I like sitting on her lap lalo na pag naglalambing ako.
"Mom naman, bawal ba ako maging sweet sainyo. Besides, I know I have been a pain in your neck daddy. I just want to cook for you, to make up for my stubbornness." I pouted at daddy na nakita kong naluluha.
"Oh, my baby girl." Kinurot ni daddy ang pisngi ko, habang niyakap naman ako ng mahigpit ni mommy. "Kahit teenager ka na ikaw pa din ang sweet baby girl namin."
"Ofcourse I am." I kissed mommy in the cheeks and got up to kiss daddy's forehead. "Now, let's eat. Mamaya na gabi mom after school, turuan mo po ako gumawa ng ref cake."
"Sure anak." Umiling iling pa ito. "Oh, I know, after the ref cake I will teach you how to make those chocolate truffles that you and your daddy loves." Her eyes sparkled, love evident in her eyes.
I just love it when mommy's eyes twinkle lalo na pag tinitingnan niya kami ni daddy.
Again, I want to have their kind of love one day.
Or maybe I have it already?
I smiled to myself.
Okay, so rewind muna. Nagising talaga ako ng maaga, pero hindi para magluto. Hindi kasi ako makatulog kasi nga Cloud's handsome face keep popping on my mind. Yung pagluluto ng breakfast--thank heavens hindi palpak, ang main goal ko talaga is for my mommy to teach me how to make the ref cake dahil dadalhan ko..si..Cloud.
Arrrgggh.
I can't even believe I am beginning to really like him so much.
Too much actually.
Kagabi lang, halos tatlong oras kaming nag usap sa phone tungkol sa kung ano anong bagay. As if it wasn't enough, he promised to buy the two of us smartphones para daw makapag video call kami. Naisip ko din yun, I have our company's prototypes, kaso hindi pa siya out sa market, kaya hindi ko na lang sinuggest.
And ngayon nga gusto ko ng makaligo para makapunta na ako sa school.
I mean it's Tuesday, it's an ordinary day right?
Pero hindi eh.
No day that I will look forward to is ordinary anymore.
Naiisip ko pa lang na magkikita kami mamaya ni Cloud sa library makes my kilig level skyrocket.
