Chapter 10
Chapter 10
"Naku, pagpasensyahan n'yo na si Yuka, ah?" Ate Cora apologized after Madam Yuka left. I just stared at her, still quite terrified from what I heard. "May ginawa ba siya sa 'yo, hija?"
Seb was immediately alert, he glanced my way and gripped my palm more.
"Nasaktan ka ba, Gabriela?" he asked, "ayos ka lang ba—"
"I'm fine, don't worry," I gave Seb a gentle smile before looking at Ate Cora's way, "she just held my hand and said something weird. I didn't get it since it's too quick and the words she used are deep Tagalog, I guess?"
I lied. I understood a few parts of it, maybe not all but quite and it was terrifying. What if I understood the full context? I think, I might be shaking now.
"Are you sure?" Seb's serious and deep voice inquired. I nodded and gave him a bright smile.
"Yes, and she just looked at my hand and said something. It's about fate? I don't know." I shrugged like it was nothing but the look on Ate Cora's face is filled with concern. "She said she's a fortune teller?"
"Hay naku, Yuka," Ate Cora sighed. "Pagpasensyahan mo na, Gab, at ganyan talaga ang kapatid ko na 'yan. Simula pa lang noong mga bata kami halos lahat ng nakikitaan niya daw ng liwanag kinakausap niya. Titignan ang palad tapos babasahin—ewan ko, hanggang ngayon ay 'di ko pa rin alam saan niya nahuhugot iyon."
"O-Oh," I nodded, "but is her readings accurate, Ate?"
Her eyes widened, she glanced at Seb and shook her head after clearing her throat.
"Hindi, wala, h'wag mo na lang pansinin si Yuka." She gave me a gentle and reassuring smile. "Minsan lang talaga'y nakakatakot pero mabait naman iyon. Hayaan mo't pagsasabihan ko para hindi na kayo istorbohin."
"It's okay, Ate," I mumbled. "You don't have to."
"Hindi, kakausapin ko, hija." She glanced at Seb too. "Pasensya ka na, Baste, ah? Pati itong si Gab ay nadadamay. Sana pala pinauwi ko na talagang Pinas iyang kapatid ko."
"Ayos lang, Ate," Seb answered, his thumb gently caressing my palm. "Pero kung ayos lang, p'wedeng pakisabihan? Ayaw ko lang kasing natatakot si Gabriela."
I opened my mouth to tell him not to bother much but when I saw the genuine concern on Seb's face, I lowered my guard and gripped his hand instead. He must've felt it for he opened his palm, filled the gaps on my fingers with his and held it.
"Oo, sasabihan ko. Pasensya na talaga." She smiled a little, "gusto n'yo ba ng pagkain? Mayro'n pa ako roon." She suddenly offered.
"Ate, you have BJ pa?" I asked and when she nodded, I chirped.
"Oo, tara," she chuckled. "Ano pang gusto n'yo? Mag-init ako ng pagkain."
"I want quick-quick and kiki yum too!" I exclaimed and Ate froze, glanced my way with her wide eyes.
"Ano?"
"Quick-quick and kiki yum—" but a palm covered my mouth before I could even say anything.
"Kwek-kwek at kikiam, Ate." Seb laughed awkwardly, "pagpasensyahan mo na at buhol na buhol na ang dila ng mga conyong taga-Italya."
I eyed him sharply after that. He just shot his brow up and smirked, slowly pulled me towards Ate Cora's stand.
I ate happily that night—well, I tried to. With Seb. He was looking at me from time to time but I'd offer him a smile to let him know I'm doing just fine.
I don't want that to bother him but maybe, he felt me masking it so on our way to my room, he kept on looking at me.
"Seb, I know naman na I'm super maganda but you're staring na too much. Baka mag-dream ka about me, ah?" I teased.
"Sinong 'di mananaginip sa kagandahang 'yan?" he answered back. My heart thumped loudly. My eyes widened.
"Really—"
"Tapos magigising kang sumisigaw ng h'waggg!" he said dramatically then crossed his arms. "Bangungot pala." He grinned.
"You brute!" I slapped his arm. He laughed loudly. "sa super pretty na face na 'to you're saying it's a nightmare?!"
"Uy, 'di ka ba matatakot biglang may maputlang babae na may pulang buhok lalapit sa 'yo. Aakalain mo s'yempre chaka doll?"
My shoulders fell. I eyed him sharply that he slowly retreated.
"J-Joke lang, Gab," he mumbled and took a step back.
I fisted my palm and gave him a sharper gaze, my eyes hurt but I didn't care much. I wanna scare him.
"Gab—" he gulped miserably, "ito naman 'di mabiro! Joke-joke lang tayo dito, ah?"
I moved closer, he took a step back. I lifted my fist to scare him off.
"See this?" I opened my palm in the air.
"Ah..." he laughed, awkwardly. "High-five ba? Apir, Gab!" but before he could give me a high-five, I lowered my four fingers and showed him my middle finger.
"Pakyu." I said proudly because I'm super inis with a wide grin.
"Anak ka ng..." his mouth parted, "Gabriela!" It sounded like he'd scream his lungs out anytime.
His eyes darkened. I immediately chickened out. I lowered my hand, hid it behind my back before giving him a cute smile but he glared at me so I took a step back.
Oh my...
"Tara dito, tuturuan kita ng leksyon, babae." He threatened.
"Hmm?" I gulped this time and licked my lip. "I'm good girl kaya! I'm just joking, too!"
But he moved a step forward, that's when I screamed and ran for my life. He was calling me loudly. We didn't care much if there are people sleeping, I was just chuckling loudly while trying to save myself. I frantically tried punching in the code to get inside my room since I didn't have my keycard with me.
"Oh my God! Oh my God!" I chanted, my hands trembling and when I heard his footsteps, I literally screamed.
"Hoy, bunganga mo, Gabriela, dami nang tulog!" I heard his loud laughter. His pace slowed down as he walked towards me with his palms inside his pocket. Like a tease, this time.
"Don't come near me!" I screamed and panicked more. I wasn't scared. I was just thrilled and excited, you know that sudden rush of adrenaline when someone's running after you?
"Makasigaw naman 'to, akala mo kinakain!" he exclaimed, laughing but then stopped when he saw my expression and eyes widening.
"O-Oh my..." I slowly hugged myself, seeing how his expression shifted and is now terrified.
"Tang ina..." he mumbled and slapped his mouth. "I-I didn't mean it like that!"
"You..." I gasped loudly when he took a step forward.
"Gabriela! Shit!" he was now blushing so hard as he tried explaining. "Hindi 'yon kagaya ng iniisip mo—"
"Oh my gosh, Seb! I didn't know you're like that?!" I accused. His face became more terrified and surprised.
"N-No, princess," he cleared his throat, his face turning red. "Hindi ako gano'n! Hindi gano'ng kain ang ibig kong sabihin—"
"OMG, Seb! You'll eat me alive?! Cannibal you?!" I screamed loudly, in horror.
His jaw dropped. He froze. He blinked once, twice, until I couldn't count in anymore.
"Ha..." he puffed a breath. I was confused when I saw how his shoulder slacked and a moment later, he was laughing so hard I think he's gonna die for losing his breath.
"Puta..." he mumbled and laughed, clapping his hand while my mouth's parting while staring at him. "C-Cannibal ang gaga—putang..." he laughed ridiculously again.
My face crumpled. I stopped when the door opened and faced him, putting my hands on my waist to look maldita.
"Why are you laughing? Do you think I'm a joke?" I spat.
"N-No..." he shook his head but laughed loudly again I'm afraid he's gonna lose his breath. He touched his stomach and fanned himself, blushing profusely while staring at me.
"Then, why are you laughing?" my lips protruded, "are you making fun of me? I'm just asking lang naman if cannibal you?"
"Bakit..." he caught his breath and closed his eyes to calm down. "Gagong Sebastian, kumalma ka, 'di ka ma-gets no'ng conyo, please lang..."
"Hey!" I snapped, "you're murmuring about me, 'no? I'm inis na, ah?"
"No, sorry, baby..." he chuckled under his breath, tilting his head up. He placed his one hand on his waist, the other one pinching the bridge of his nose.
I gulped harshly.
"Baby?" I asked slowly.
His stance changed. He quickly glanced my way, his eyes are wide too, mirroring mine.
"Gab..." his face softened a bit, even if there's still a ghost of silly smile on his lips. "That's...I mean..."
"Earlier I'm a princess conyo na slow and chaka doll and now...you think I'm sanggol?!" I screamed.
"Anak ka ng..." he touched his nape, "gago, tumataas na BP ko. Cap, pa-rescue! Patawag ng 911!" he exclaimed back but I remained glaring at him, annoyed.
"I'm not baby! I'm dalaga na!" I hissed at him, crossing my arms on my chest. "You think sanggol have melons like this?!" I cupped my breast and emphasized it but he just looked more terrified and bright red.
"Gab—"
"You're so mean! Basher Ursula Witch!" I hissed, turned my back, kicked the door open to get inside.
"Gabriela," he cleared his throat and walked a little faster towards me. "Joke lang, prinsesa—"
"Hmp!" I hissed, shut the door close but a hand slipped in between before I could even close it, earning a loud groan from outside.
"Oh my God!" I exclaimed horribly, opened the door to look at Seb. "Are you okay? I'm sorry!"
He was just staring at me as I held his hand but when our eyes met, he blinked and not a moment later, his face crumpled as if in pain.
"O-Ouch..." he groaned and fell a bit. I panicked.
"Seb!" I gasped, pulling him closer to mine. "A-Are you okay? I'm sorry! You're crazy kasi! Why did you stick you hand here! Look at that!"
"Ikaw kasi..." he mumbled. I looked at his eyes with a sharp glare. "Sasaraduhan mo 'ko kaya tinakbo ko, s'yempre gusto kong ano..."
"What?" I shot my brow up, "you'd risk it, really? What if your hand got chopped off? Aren't you scared?!" I hissed, imagining him that way. I shivered.
"Ayaw, s'yempre! Pero ano..." he cleared his throat while staring at me intently. "Ano, ayaw ko namang matulog ngayong gabi na galit at 'di nakakausap ang prinsesa ko."
I stopped. My heart fluttered. I definitely felt the loud wave of emotion swerving inside that our eyes remained locked.
I licked my lower lip and unconsciously did, too. He slowly pushed the door to shorten the gap in between us more. He took a step back, dipped his head closer that I was about to close my eyes for a kiss when we heard a loud voice.
"Why are you both so loud?! Do you think you owned this ship?!" we both jumped away from each other. I pushed Seb so hardly he gasped under his breath and got in front of the woman in her robe.
I covered my mouth. Oh my gosh, it was me who's loud!
"Uh...well..." Seb scratched the back of his neck, "my apologies, Ma'am—"
"You two better be quiet!" she annoyingly pointed me and Seb, "I don't care if you two are new couples but kept your mouth shut! There are other people inside the ship! Sleeping! Don't act like you're two important people and owned this ship!"
"S-Sorry," I stepped in and bowed a bit, "it's my fault, Ma'am. My apologies."
She eyed me from head to toe and rolled her eyes.
"I'll report this on the deck," she pointed out. "I'll get the two of you kicked in here!"
She walked out, enraged. Seb and I remained staring as she slammed his door just beside mine shut, both let out a relaxed sigh afterwards.
I walked inside my room. He followed me and closed the door behind when I heard him whisper.
"Yari kay Cap..." Seb murmured. I covered my mouth and looked at his way.
"S-Sorry, Seb." I couldn't help it anymore. My eyes swelled. I felt bad for him, I'm sure he'll be scolded. Because of me!
"Hindi ikaw—u-uy, umiiyak ka?!" I sensed his panic and I didn't want to show him but I ended up sniffing, covering my mouth more.
"S-Sorry..."
"It's not your fault," he immediately consoled. He walked closer, towered me before gently crouching closer to look at my face.
"It is," I whispered. "Loud ang mouth ko. You kept on saying not to scream but I screamed like a whale."
He laughed but then bit his lip after realizing it. "Shit, s-sorry. 'Di kita pinagtatawanan!"
"Hmp..." I sniffed more, "y-you're agreeing I'm a whale?!" I cried more.
"Anak ng...hindi! Hindi, s'yempre!" he shook his head harshly, "bakit naman magiging balyena ang prinsesa ko, ah? Sa gandang 'yan? Patingin nga ng ganda..."
I lowered the palm from my mouth and gave him a cute smile even if my eyes are swelling with tears, hesitantly showing him a peace sign near my cheek.
He bit his lip to suppress from laughing. My lips protruded.
"Y-You're making fun of me!" I hissed.
"Shh...hindi kaya!" he chuckled lowly, lowering his face until our gazes are aligned. "Bakit ko naman pagkakatuwaan ang mahal na prinsesa..."
I pouted more.
"I have a bad mouth," I whispered. "Y-You know before, I always sneak inside my siblings' bedroom kasi I'm super lonely. We'll be loud because I'll tell them silly things, sometimes I'll tell them scary stories we'd end up screaming but one night, our mother caught us."
"Uh-hmm..." he listened to me intently.
"A-And, she was so mad but my siblings protected me." I sniffed, "t-they said it wasn't my fault and it was them who screamed but in reality—I am the loudest. I tried explaining but she got mad at us, she punished my siblings and told me to stay away. S-She said I'm a bad influence to my siblings..."
When I noticed the concern and sadness on his eyes, my lips trembled.
"I used to be friends with my siblings when we're young but as we grow old, we separated. They sent them away abroad to study. No—my mother separated me from them because I'm a bad influence until we drifted apart. N-Now, I think I'm a stranger to them."
"You aren't, Gabriela." He murmured, gently brushing my hair off my face to place it behind my ear.
"It's because of me and my loud mouth." I murmured. "I told them scary stories but it was me who got scared the most in the end. Kaya loud 'yong scream ko. If only I was quiet, maybe until now I'm still close to them."
"You all are kids back then, Gab. Why do adults expected everyone to be prim and proper?" he asked, "bawal ba tayo maging bata? Bawal ba maging masaya?"
When I met his gaze again, his eyes mirrored mine.
"S-So, I told myself, you know?" I sniffed. "That I'll be a good girl. I won't talk much anymore. I would be a prim and quiet woman. I can only be this loud around my cousin, Cathalina and n-now, here. S-Sorry if I put you intro trouble, hmm? I-I'll be a good girl from n-now on, I hope you won't be mad at me."
"Bakit mo naman maiisip na magagalit ako sa 'yo, Gabriela?" he sighed, touching my waist to firm me as he placed a gentle and warm kiss on my forehead. I shut my eyes close.
"I'm just..." I slowly gripped his shirt, "I-I'm just afraid you'll be mad and leave, too."
"Hindi ko tinanggap ang pakiramdam na 'to para lang pakawalan sa huli," he whispered. He slowly pushed me away from him, tilting my chin up until our gazes met.
"Seb?" I called.
"Yes, little mermaid?" he smiled faintly, grazing my lips with his finger.
"This was my first time saying this but it already felt familiar inside my heart," I gripped his shirt more. "I-I'm a secret fan of love and romance. I dreamt of it for a long time. Like how Ariel felt it for the prince and now...I think that dream came into reality. I..."
"I?" he tilted his head to watch my reaction. My cheeks heated up. "You're what, gorgeous princess?"
"I..." I gulped harshly and looked at him straight into his eyes. "I-I think, I mahal you."
I was waiting for his reaction but he remained staring at me. It was deep. I felt like drowning by the way he threw his stare so I opened my mouth to speak—only to be shut by his kisses.
It was sudden but it felt familiar. We still haven't studied well in terms of kissing but it was so serene I didn't feel any pressure to give my best.
I was still anticipating his kisses when he withdrawn from it and whispered.
"I'm in love with the mermaid, too." He said those words with magic.
I can definitely imagine the way the fishes sang when Prince Eric and Ariel got their happy ending.
"Seb..." my eyes stung, "m-mahal mo rin me?"
"Oo nga," he chuckled lowly, "mahal na mahal, prinsesang conyo. Kahit tataas na ang BP ko't mamumuti ang buhok ng maaga kakaintindi sa sinasabi mo mahal...na mahal kita."
Words wasn't enough to express the feelings I felt that very moment. I literally cried as I tiptoed, cupped his cheek and pressed my lips on his for a kiss.
He gripped my waist, crouched more so I could kiss him better and like synchronized harmony, our lips moved together in symphony.
Oh, wow. I am great with words! Can I be a poet now?
I gasped loudly when my back got slammed on the wall. The kisses became so intense I felt Seb's tongue against mine.
"S-Seb..." I pushed him away, my eyes are wide while looking at his sleepy black eyes, still catching his breath.
"Hmm?" he hummed, still a bit disoriented from the thorough kissing.
"I haven't brushed my teeth yet," I mumbled, my cheeks heating up. "Baka it tasted like kiki yum pa?"
He stifled a laugh, moistened his lower lip sensually and dropped his gaze on my parted lips.
"Nah, it tasted like chocolates for me." He answered.
My throat dried up. I remembered eating chocolates too earlier and it might be what he tasted so...
"T-Then it's okay to you ba if we kiss-kiss ulit?" I asked. He met my gaze.
"Hmm?"
"I mean..." I pursed my lips for a mouth, motioning the kiss. "I thought my lips still tasted like kiki yum so I was shy but now that you said it tasted like chocolate. Can we...can we continue kissing?"
He chuckled lowly. He touched my cheek with his palm and pinched it playfully.
"Ang cute mo talaga, babae. Kung palagi kang ganyan baka mamaga na 'yang labi mo kakahalik ko."
I gave him a cute smile. He sighed loudly.
"Babatukan ako no'ng masamang ugaling Sebastian kapag nalaman niyang magiging ganito ako sa future," he mumbled. "Pero gusto mong...gusto mo ng lesson?"
"About?"
"Kissing," he cleared his throat after. "Medyo 'di ka pa marunong, eh. Tapos ako rin kaya maganda siguro kung mag-aaral t-tayo?"
My mouth parted.
"I-I'm not forcing you!" umiling siya, "k-kung gusto mo lang ba..."
"Then, how can I pay you for the lesson, teacher?" I pouted. "I have no money, eh."
"Libre," he gulped and took a glance at my lips. "Scholar kita, one hundred percent off sa tuition!"
"Okay!" I cheered happily, putting my arms around his nape to pull him closer. "Can I get the free first session now?"
I did the first move this time and kissed him. It was so addicting. His lips tasted divine I can't help but purred a little. He bit my lower lip, touching my jaw.
"Open your mouth a bit, Gabriela." He whispered against my lips, "let me taste you a little bit more, princess."
I did. I felt his palm on my butt. I whimpered and jumped a bit, tangling my arms on his nape to kiss him.
I can feel us moving while kissing. I didn't know where he'll bring us since I was busy kissing him and feeling his warm tongue inside my mouth when my head bumped into something.
"Aww..." I groaned.
"Shit..." Seb seemed like he woke up from his daydream and snapped. "Anong nangyari? Okay ka lang?!"
"Just..." I turned my head and realized it's the door to my room. I let out a loud gasp, "my head got hit on the door, Seb. It's so sakit."
"Anak ng..." he cursed, slowly lowering me down the ground that I panicked inside.
Why am I even so madrama? He lowered me down!
"Ayos ka lang?" he asked and reached for the back of my head. "Sorry, hindi ko napansin! Kasalan 'to ng..." he smacked the door. "Bakit ka nakaharang na pintuan ka? Kitang nandito ang prinsesa ko!"
I pouted, hiding my smile. I glanced at the door too and smacked it.
"Very bad door," I hissed, "can't you see I'm still kissing my teacher? I'm his scholar, you know?!"
"Oo nga," Seb smacked it again, "kitang tinuturuan kong humalik 'yong scholar ko!"
I shifted my face. Our gazes met. Just when our eyes glinted with the same thought and naughty imaginations, I jumped on him, kissed his lips in instant to continue our lesson for today.
We got inside of my room, lips still locked. I was walking backwards while kissing when I lost my balance and fell on the bed. He fell, too. Now he's above me, I can feel my stomach churning.
Our bodies got pressed to each other. My hair was disheveled all over the bed, my hands fell near my head. I noticed him swallowed hard, his eyes wandered around my face and neck.
"Fuck, Sebastian. Get a grip." He uttered painfully under his breath.
"Seb?" I called, "why did you stop? You didn't want na ba?"
He closed his eyes tightly. His jaw clenched and when he opened his eyes again, I saw a darker shades of black as he licked his lower lip.
I closed my legs, feeling the weird thing in between it. What is it?
"No, baby," he sighed. "Hindi sa gano'n."
"Baby again?" my brows furrowed. "I told you already, haven't I? I'm dalaga na, Seb! Can't you see?"
"Huh?" he blinked and annoyed, I pushed him away. He ended up sitting on the bed and I popped up and sat too.
"You kept on calling me baby, it's two in a row na. You think I'm an infant pa? Look at me, I'm twenty-five. Very gorgeous and pretty! And not just that! Give me your hand," I commanded.
Confused, he showed me his hand.
"Does babies have melons like this?" I hissed then placed his palm on my breast.
His eyes widened exaggeratedly. His cheeks blushed.
"See? You think babies have melons?" I educated him, "you know you're my teacher but you know nothing about girls, I can see that. A grown-up woman has breasts, okay? Like this." I moved his palm on my chest to make him feel my most prized possession.
"G-Gab—"
"Hep! You can't!" I pulled his palm back on my breast. "This is called melons, Seb. Me-lons." I mouthed.
"A-Alam ko!" his eyes are still wide, "hindi mo na kailangang ipaliwanag—"
"How can I shut up when you kept on calling me baby when I wasn't anymore? I'm dalaga na! My melons are even fluffy—" I moved my hand and made him squeezed it with my help. "See? That's what you call boobs, Seb!" I exclaimed proudly.
He suddenly screamed, I was shocked. He pulled his hand from me and hugged himself.
"H'wag po, Ate!" he exclaimed. "Bata pa 'ko!"
"Why?" I blinked rapidly, "m-may nagawa ba 'kong wrong?"
"You can't..." he blushed more, "you can't just make me touch your...your..."
"Melons?" I asked and tilted my head, "why not? It's okay naman with me, I'm just teaching my teacher what a grown-up woman is."
"Alam ko, Gabriela. Alam na alam ko." He squinted his eyes closed. "Ang ibig ko lang sabihin ay h'wag mong basta na lang ipapahawak 'yang ano mo..."
"Melons?" I asked.
"Melons," he nodded. "H'wag mong basta na lang ipapahawak 'yan, lalo na at lalaki ako. S'yempre ano!" he sighed loudly, then screamed a little and pulled his hair. "Tang ina, lamunin na lang sana ako ng lupa!"
My eyes widened in fraction when I noticed his bulge on his pants. He simply took the pillow and covered his legs. I pursed my lips.
"Why do you always like to be eaten by the ground?" I asked, "you'll be dead, you know? Just saying..." I shrugged.
"Teka..." he clicked his neck and fixed his back to straighten his posture. He stared at me and lifted his finger. "Lumapit ka nga rito, Gabriela Romanov. Mag-uusap tayong dalawa ng masinsinan."
"Sure!" I exclaimed excitedly, crossed my legs to listen to him. "What is it, teacher?"
He cleared his throat, fanned his face for a while to calm down.
"Rate your innocence in terms of relationship one as the lowest and ten as the highest." He started.
"Huh? Can I rate it?" I asked, "I don't think so. I told you, right? I'm sheltered. I know a bit of romance kasi I love reading little mermaid. If relationship, I had a few dates—"
"Ano?!" he exclaimed. "May ka-date ka?! Sino? Sino 'yang mga gagong 'yan?"
"It's more like a business, Seb," I rolled my eyes. "I told you, 'di ba, na you're my first love. I'm only feeling kilig-kilig with some movies I sneakily watched in the maid's quarters and from the story book."
"Oh? Tapos?" he has this grim expression on his face.
"Tapos that's it. Except from the kilig from the movies, story and the fairytales we watched earlier nothing na. You're my first kiss, you know? You're even the first man I allowed to touched my prized melons."
"Aba, dapat lang, Gabriela!" he snapped. "Ako lang dapat. Ako."
"Yeah, you lang." I smiled, "you don't have kaagaw naman, why ka mad?"
"Tss..." he moistened his lower lip. "Dapat lang kasi ako, s'yempre ikaw din 'yong ano..." his voice turned softer.
"Ano?" I asked.
"'Yong ano... first kiss ko," he blushed profusely. I covered my mouth.
"Really?!" I screamed.
He cleared his throat and brushed his hair with his fingers, "oo kaya dapat tayo lang, okay?" he lectured.
My heart felt so full. I nodded and smiled happily.
I'm his first kiss, too. What a lucky gorgeous princess you are, Gab!
"Back to the topic na nga," he cleared his throat. "Makinig ka sa 'kin, prinsesa."
I nodded, listening intently.
"Una." He raised his finger. "Ako lang ang hahalik sa 'yo, naiintindihan mo?"
"Okay, teacher." I smiled.
"Pangalawa!" he showed me his finger. "Akin ka."
My heart thumped like it's been on a race. He stopped too and stared at me seriously, I raised my finger.
"C-Can I say something, too?" I asked.
"Sige," he nodded, controlling his voice.
"You're mine, too, okay?" I pointed out.
He shut his eyes closed, pinched the bridge of his nose. I can see how the redness of his face intensified and when he opened his eyes, he nodded.
"Okay." He said formally. "B-Bale, tayo lang sa isa't-isa, huh?"
I nodded slowly.
I can't help it anymore. A smile left my lips. He looked so fazed seeing it that a smile escaped his lips too. I became so shy and tried covering my face to scream.
"Putang ina, Sebastian, kalmahan mo. Astig tayo dapat dito!" he said under his breath and threw the pillow away, slapping the bed like he's letting out a silent kilig.
I giggled, screamed silently and he's letting out his feelings by tossing the pillows to the side and whispering something to himself until we both calmed down.
"Pangatlo," he reminded, still in his red face. "H'wag mo bastang papahawak kahit kanino 'yang melons mo na 'yan para lang mapatunayang dalaga ka na."
"Oh..." I nodded, "but it's for you lang naman. No one had ever called me a baby kasi I'm not infant, eh."
He sighed loudly. He touched his nape and nodded defeatedly.
"I didn't mean it like that," he explained. "Baby pero 'di literal. Paano ba 'to..." he stopped briefly. "It's more like an endearment. It's what you call when someone is dear to you."
"Really?" I nodded, "like...when you call me Princess?" I asked. He nodded.
"Ahh..." I nodded, "alright! Now, I understand why Lucian is calling G like that. He calls her baby princess at times, I was just thinking maybe it's an inside joke but... okay. I get it now. It's an endearment pala? I'm your baby?" my eyes twinkled.
"Hays, salamat naman, Lord. Na-gets na niya din." He nodded after looking at the ceiling. "Oo, prinsesa. It's an endearment kaya bago ka magpahawak niyang melons mo, magtanong ka muna, okay?"
"Hmm, alright." I glanced at my chest. "But admit it, you like naman touching my melons, eh. I saw you swallowed harshly."
"That's because...!" he trailed off, "ganito kasi 'yan, Gabriela. Hija, makinig kang mabuti, okay?"
I nodded.
"Paano ba mag-e-explain nang hindi brutal?" he whispered to himself and heaved a deep breath again, even lifting his hand like he's in a yoga session and puffed a breath.
"Ganito kasi 'yan, minsan kapag masyado nang mainit ang pangyayari nagiging intense."
"Huh? I think it's pwede naman lakasan ang aircon para cold na?"
"Anak ka ng..." he shut his eyes closed, "hindi, Baste, kumalma ka. Mahal mo 'yang slow na 'yan, okay? Dapat kalmado ka."
He's really weird, talking to himself like that. But he's cute anyway. I wanna kiss him again tuloy.
"Ganito 'yan, Miss Romanov." He emphasized. "Ang ibig kong sabihin ay 'yong pakiramdam, minsan kapag naghahalikan 'yong dalawang tao mas lumalalim tapos s'yempre natu-turn on, minsan nagiging home run."
"Home run?" my forehead creased, "how is it happening? They're making takbo towards their house?"
"Hindi..." umiling siya, "it's okay, when two people are attached to each other—even just mere attraction, even just kissing is different. They became more intimate, why? Because they have hots for each other. Kissing might become making out, you know, touching each other like what you just did when you let me touch your melons then it might proceed to the rated-18. Jusmiyo, muntik na pala, gago."
"Oh..." I nodded, "and? You're turned on?"
He sighed loudly, "yes, Gabriela. You turned me on."
My heart thundered. I bit my lower lip and stared at him.
"Then why don't you proceed? I-It's okay naman with me?" I answered.
"It's too early for that, princess," he chuckled lowly. He reached for my hand and caressed my palm. "I'm just teaching you how to kiss. Peck lang dapat. Pang baguhan, okay? I don't want to corrupt your adorable mind, you still aren't ready for it so we'll walk slowly towards it—if you're ready."
"Why pa mag-walk if we can takbo?" I asked.
He flicked my forehead. I groaned.
"Seb?!" my lips protruded. "Why? Am I not seducing enough? You want me ba to make more harot?"
"Bawal pa nga, Gabriela. Ba-wal." He emphasized, "next time na, we're still knowing each other more. It's not an easy path. Atsaka may respeto naman ako sa 'yo, ano? Sinong 'di matu-turn on sa kagandahang mukhang chaka doll?"
"Hey..." I glared at him. He laughed and pulled me closer until our shoulders are touching.
"I'm turned on, okay?" he sighed and kissed my temple, "but I want you to know me better. I confessed not to have my way inside you. I want my way here." He pointed his chest.
"But you're already here, Seb," I smiled gently. "It was you who's keeping it beating."
"Blood could never..." he murmured but then laughed, "naku, Gabriela Romanov. Binabaliw mo ako."
"You want to go to the hospital ba?" I even teased and laughed loudly when he gave me a sharp glare.
"I was just kidding!" I exclaimed, lifting my body to kiss his lips to settle everything but that kiss intensified.
I ended up straddling him on his legs, kissing him deeply with his palms caressing my exposed waist. His lips dropped from my lips, down my jaw and nape and I ended up tilting my neck to give him more access.
I can hear his pacing breath. I fisted a few strands of his hair as he gave me small and sensual kisses on the neck until it dropped in between my chest. I trembled, sat properly on his crotch and stopped upon feeling his hardened bulge.
He froze, too. He refrained from kissing my skin and cursed under his breath, hugging me tighter instead as he buried his face on my neck.
"Bawal nga, prinsesa," he breathed on my ear, making me shiver.
I swallowed hard.
"Y-You're turned on?" I hesitantly asked, feeling him underneath. He didn't answer me so I curiously moved my hips, trying to feel it.
"Damn it, Gabriela!" he stopped and firmed me on his arms. "Stop fucking moving."
I didn't say anything. I just embraced the feeling of his warmth and his deep breaths on my ear. I can still feel him hard but I'm feeling something weird too.
"I'm...I'm feeling a bit wet too, is it normal?" I whispered.
"Tang ina," he said gently, touching my back more. "You're making this hard for me, Gabriela."
"What? I'm just asking lang naman." I whispered again, "I'm feeling a bit you know? Is it okay?"
"Yes, princess," he chuckled lowly. "You're turned on, too. That's why. You don't have to tell me out loud. It's getting harder to control myself."
Oh...that's it! When a woman is turned on, you felt wet down there? And then for men...
"I get it now. You covered your crotch with the pillow because it's turned on?"
"Yeah..." he breathed. "You're such a temptress. Wala kang ginagawa pero..."
I moved away a little from him, just enough to not sit on his hardened bulge. I glanced at it and watched him staring at me suspiciously, as if he's waiting for me to say something ridiculous so I did.
"I'm sorry to turn you on, Seb. It must be hard for Mr. Crabs," I mumbled and poked his crotch.
"What the hell...you're calling my..."
"You're Sebastian the crab so your friend will be the little Mr. Crabs." I smiled widely. "Can I say hi, hello, how are you?"
He blinked, touched his nape and groaned.
"Ahhh! 911, Cap! 911!" he sounded like wailing, "hindi na lang altapresyon, pati sugar ko tumataas na!"
