You Were Never Mine

Chapter 2

Yvette's P.O.V

Natapos ang kainan at agad akong dumiretso sa kwarto ko. Pagpasok ko, walang ni-isang gamit ang nalipat sa puwesto. The color scheme of my room, which is a shade of coffee-colored palette, has remained the same, as have the carpeted floor and the indoor plants. The garlands with a minimum of ornamentation are still hanging. There are images of myself and medals there. Everything...

The situation has not changed, and I despise it. Every nook and cranny of the room brings back memories of Nathan sneaking into the room and hiding behind my closet whenever my mother was only a little bit distracted.

Every memory we've spent together is crystal clear in my mind, yet the person is a hazy blur in my mind. Wala na siya. At hindi ko alam kung iniisip rin ako nito.

Kaagad kong ibinagsak ang katawan ko sa malambot kong kama. Malinis ang kwarto at talagang pinaghandaan ang pag-uwi ko. Iniisip ko kung ano pang mais sasaya kung nandito rin si Iñigo at sumasalubong din sa akin ng yakap at halik.

That would work out well. However, perfection is not attainable in real life.

I've reached my goal of being an architect, and I can't help but wonder if he's already achieved his desire of becoming an engineer. Nakukuha ko na ang mga pangarap ko and my mind can't stop pondering if he's doing well. Is he having success and making progress toward his goals?

Remember when.. (2013)

While she waits for her lover to come over, Yvette is currently lounging on her bed. Tumayo siyang muli at naglakad ng pabalik pabalik. Naikot na niya ang buong kwarto niya. She's nervous lagi kapag mga ganitong oras. Paano ba naman kasi, Iñigo will sneak inside her chamber sooner or later today, kaya hindi siya mapakali.

Paano na lang kung mahuli siya ng Mommy niya?

Maya maya pa, may narinig siyang katok mula sa pintuan at dahan dahan niyang binuksan iyon. At nang makita niyang si Iñigo iyon habang may dalang plato ng pancake habang matamis na nakangiti sa kaniya, she smiled back and allowed Igo into her chamber.

"Thank you very much for creating the pancake effect—"

"Sinong nagsabing sa'yo 'yan? It belongs to me!" Sabi ng binata kaya lumungkot ang mukha niya.

"Lumabas ka nga rito!" Pagtaboy niya sa binata, pero tumawa lamang ito at agad na tinanggal ang pang-taas niyang damit. When he is in her room, he likes to engage in his passion of being partially n***d, which is something that Yvette enjoys very much.

Who wouldn't want to see a macho man na mamawis-mawis, pero lalo naman bumabango nang dahil sa pawis?

That would be Yvette.

"Oh? Bakit hindi mo na'ko pinapalabas? Hmp! You only desire me for my body! Hmp!" He carried on in a childlike manner.

He's such a sweet little thing.

"Aba't nagpapa-baby ka na naman, hijo." Yvette took care of her favorite apo in a manner befitting an elderly woman.

"But since I'm your baby, it's not a big deal." Iigo began by kissing Yvette's lips, and then he moved on to her chin and then her neck. Sabay silang bumagsak sa kama and they found themselves clutching each other habang nakahiga sa kama.

Ito ang isa sa mga fave na ginagawa ni Yvette kasama ni Iñigo. Cuddling. Being happy with one's circumstances and making no demands for more is a sign of contentment. Simply being grateful for what they already possess rather of focusing on what they do not have.

Kinuha ni Igo ang kamay ni Yvette at saka niya ito hinalikan sabay ng pagtingala niya sa kisame ng kwarto.

"Love, gusto ko kapag after nating gumraduate, tayo ang gagawa ng sariling bahay natin. I mean— tayo 'yung magdedesign..." sabi ni Nathan na nakahiga sa kama kasama si Yvette habang nakapatong ang ulo nito sa braso ng binata.

"Of course. Hold on, because we are going to do that together, all right? Huwag ka mag-ooverthink ng mga bagay." Igo then broke it up by humiwalaying them in their embrace after Yvette had muttered something and kissed Nathan on the lips. Nathan had responded to the kiss.

"Hala... bakit..." Napasimangot si Yvette, dahil sa ginawa ng binatang paghiwalay sa halikan nila.

"I-I'm—"

"I'm sorry, Love, but I can't accept your apology this time..." Iago was subjected to even more teasing by Yvette.

"Oh, s**t, Yvette. I couldn't be more excited about this!" Nabigla si Yvette sa sinabi at reaksiyon ni Iñigo.

"I made a mistake... I'm sorry—"

"I don't accept apologies this time too, Miss Hilton..." napanganga si Yvette sa sinabi ng binata. She never felt hot like this before. This is completely absurd, and it's driving her completely crazy! s**t! Because he is so close to her, she can feel a fluttering in her gut...

And with only one kiss, as Iigo instructed, Yvette hastened to lock her door because she had a sneaking suspicion about what was going to take place next. They are both in their third year of college, and they have been good friends for quite some time.

Siguradong sigurado na si Yvette na ibibigay niya ang lahat ng firsts niya kay Iñigo. Hindi hahadlang ang walang label nilang relasyon sa pagbigay niya ng buong puso and even her virginity to Igo, because she loves him and Iñigo does too!

They were both very unconcerned with their labels. They are simply concerned with their own emotions. They started taking each other's clothes off and enjoying the sensation of each other's warm bodies as they did so. It is twelve hours past midnight, and most people are undoubtedly fast asleep. They can only sneak into each other's rooms at midnight because that is the only time they are alone. They took special care to keep the volume of their voices down.

"Yvette... I would never have guessed that my sweet and docile infant could be this sizzling..." Yvette felt a chill run down her spine as a result of what Iigo had whispered to her. That was really sizzling!

"I-Iñigo... Ohh..." Yvette is unable to contain her groaning since the experience is too intense for her to bear.

"Are you positive... that this is what you want, Yvette?" Iñigo stopped kissing at tinitigan si Yvette sa mata na puno ng adorasyon, pagmamahal at pag-aalala.

"Never in my life have I been so confident of anything..." Yvette's virginity was lost at that same moment when Iigo's flawless physique made the decisive move. They merged into a single entity. They made love as if there would be no more time the next day. Yvette tried to stifle her groans by covering her head with a pillow, but Igo took the pillow from her head.

"Yvette, as I grab you, I want to be able to hear you yelling out my name. You got that right. Yvette, please let me know that you require my assistance since I really require your presence. You're my survival "humihingal si Igo, yet he doesn't stop thrusting even after you tell him to stop.

"Yvette... I love you..." As exhaustion took over his body, Iago planted a kiss on Yvette's forehead.

"I adore you too..." Yvette clutched Iñigo closely na para bang aalis ito anumang oras kaya kailangan niya itong protektahan and fell asleep. She felt completely spent after making love to the person she adores.

(The flashback will now end)

—

NAGISING si Yvette na may malakas na kabog sa dibdib. It wasn't until he looked at the time that he realized it was just five in the morning. Nakatulog siya kagabi. Tumayo siya para pumunta sa banyo, ngunit nang makita niya ang mukha niya, there were tears on her cheeks.

Mabilis siyang naghilamos at agad na nagbihis para maghanda sa morning jog niya. She needs to run, to sweat— para kahit papaaano ay iba ang dahilan na pagbilis ng t***k ng puso niya. At least, dahil sa kagagawan niya kaya ito magwawala sa loob ng dibdib niya.

Because she is not a morning person, she has simply taken a bottle of water with her as she has left the house. It is almost 6:30 in the morning. Paglabas niya sa bahay, naglakad muna siya at nagstretching, bago nagsimulang takbuhin ang kilometrong objective niya sa araw na ito.

They reside in a posh neighborhood reserved for wealthy people only. Sanay na sanay na siyang tumakbo, dahil ginagawa niya ito araw araw sa States. Mag-isa lang siya roon, kaya mayroon siyang mga to-do-list, para maging productive ang araw niya.

Kampante siyang tumatakbo nang biglang may mahagip ng mga mata niya ang isang sasakyan habang ang nagmamaneho nito ay ang nagpalakas ng t***k ng dibdib niya. Napatigil siya sa pagtakbo at natulala sa kawalan. Wala na ang sasakyan, pero ang gulat niya ay bahid na bahid parin sa kaniyang mukha.

Parang nakikipag karera ang puso niya sa lakas ng t***k nito. Akala niya ang pagod ang dahilan ng t***k nito, pero hindi.

Oh, God. Please reassure me that I'm just making this up. Please reassure me that I have not just witnessed the passing of the legendary Nathan Iigo Rios. Tell me I'm incorrect because I'm going to lose my mind if I continue to believe this.

It's already the case...
