NAT'S POV

Last night was... Fantastic. Awesome. Perfect. 

I don't really want to go into details pero I'll let you know, he made me feel alive. Kahit na he was careful with me, he made me go to places I never knew existed. We reached heights I never knew we could reach and-- Okay. That's enough. Pwede na yan. Just a sneak peak of last night. 

I ran a hand over the bed and all I touched was... the bed.

Where was Bryce?

My eyes shot open. I was alone, in a huge canopy bed, wearing nothing and my husband's no where beside me. 

I gathered the sheets sa akin and stood. 

It was only then nang makita ko ng buo ang kwarto. Very Meditteranean. Ang sarap ngang matulog pa kasi ang presko ng kwarto pero wala si Bryce and I intend to find him. 

"Whe-when--"

I cocked my head to the right. May naggigitara and trying to sing the song to the tune. 

"When I look into your eyes

It's like watching the night sky

Or a beautiful sunrise"

Pinalitan ko yung kumot ko ng bathrobe at naglakad ako kung saan may naggigitara. 

"There's so much they hold

And just like them old stars

I see that you've come so far

To be right where you are

How old is your soul?"

Dinaanan ko ang banyo and when I got out, I got the most maginificent view of Maldives. Clear blue waters, equally clear skies, warm air and perfectly-lined and empty water bungalows.  

"Wow..." I whispered in awe. 

Before me, seated sa isa sa mga orange lounge chairs was my husband. Parang feel na feel niya ang pagkanta ng song kasi he shook his head with his eyes closed and nagli-linger yung mga daliri niya sa strings ng gitara.

"I won't give up on us

Even if the skies get rough

I'm giving you all my love

I'm still looking up."

Nang pagkasabi niya sa "up", tumingala siya at nakita akong nanonood. He stopped singing and smiled at me.

"Good morning, love." he said. 

I smiled. "Good morning rin, love." I said. 

Nanlaki mga mata niya. Yes. It would be the first time again for me to call him "love." 

I went to him and kissed him. Then I sat on the lounge next to him. 

He took the guitar. 

"And when you're needing your space

To do some navigating

I'll be here patiently waiting

To see what you find

"'Cause even the stars they burn

Some even fall to the earth

We've got a lot to learn
