Rule #3: Changing The Rules

[23]

Chapter 23

I stared at the sunset, a mix of yellow, red, orange colors filling my vision across the fiery sun setting for the day. I smiled at the sight. The fascination of it before my eyes, reminds me a lot of my childhood.

Kinulong niya ako sa braso niya at hinalikan ang pisngi. I rested my back on him, while playing with his fingers. Naramdaman ko ang antok at sinandal ang ulo sa mga braso niyang nakakulong sa akin.

"Sleepy?" sinuksok niya ang labi sa leeg ko at sinimulang atakihin iyon ng halik. It tickled me a bit, his soft lips against my skin bringing heat to my cheeks.

"Prince, my neck. You might leave a mark, again..." saway ko dahil hilig niyang halikan iyon at mag-iwan ng marka. I try so hard to wrap a scarf, and told lies about feeling cold. Delikado rin kina Mommy, dahil hindi pa kami legal sa kanila.

He chuckled on my ear. "That's good, then. Para alam nilang akin ka lang."

Pinagpatuloy niya ang ginagawa. I sighed. Gagawin niya talaga ang gusto niya. My words hold no impact on him, no matter what I say.

"Sayo naman talaga ako..." I told him.

"Hm? Pero hindi nila alam yon. They still try to get your attention, and I fucking hate that." he hissed and filled me with kisses again.

I pouted. Mula nung naging kami, naging seloso na siya. He became so possessive of me, that he glares at any guy who would dare to look at me. Parang nababaliw na talaga siya.

He knew that I have always been his, the moment I confessed to him. Alam naman niyang siya lang ang hinihintay ko noon, and now that I have him... hindi ko na talaga siya papakawalan.

We were sitting at the back of his car, watching the sunset. Palagi namin ginagawa ito tuwing may oras kami.

Umakyat ang kamay niya sa dibdib ko. Marahan niyang pinisil iyon. My eyes widened and faced him. His brow raised at my action, he quickly removed his hands from me.

"Prince!"

He looked worried for a second. Tuwing ganyan ang reaksyon ko ay sinisigurado niyang ayos lang sa akin ang paghawak niya. I let him touch me anywhere, but when I feel uncomfortable, I'll tell him immediately and he'll stop it.

"Sorry. Nagulat ka ba? Were you uncomfortable?" he worriedly asked.

Umiling ako. "Hindi naman. But we're outside..."

He chuckled. "Sorry, then. Lumaki kasi, I was just testing if it grew bigger from last year."

"Prince!" nguso ko ulit. Damn him! He says the most embarrassing things and he says it so casually.

"What? Baby, I'm just checking your size so I'll know what to buy for you..."

Namula ang mukha ko. He chuckled again and kissed my cheeks.

"Damn, you're still the same. Namumula ka pa rin sa akin?"

It's been a year since I answered yes to him. Last year na rin sa college, before we head off to Med and Law.

"You're making me blush," I said shyly.

Natawa siya. "Expect more for the next years, then."

I still couldn't believe that we would reach this stage. Yung akin na talaga siya. I was jealous for a lot of reasons, and I know how he was with girls. Pero ngayon, sa akin nalang talaga ang atensyon niya.

My phone rang beside us. Tiningnan niya iyon at bahagyang tumaas ang kilay. He quickly dismissed it and tried not to react. Alam niya kasing napagsabihan ko na siya noon tungkol dito. Lahat kasi ng tumatawag sa akin, alam niya. So I told him that I didn't like that, and he obliged. Although, minsan nakikita ko pa rin ang inis sa mukha niya tuwing lalaking pangalan ang nakikita roon.
