Tongue-in-Cheek

Nicotine

The smell of freshly cooked eggs and bacon woke me up from my deep and lethargic state. Maingay akong humikab at saka padapang inabot ang cellphone sa gilid. I have no choice but to wake up because of my growling tummy. I hazily put the big black nike slippers on and pulled myself from the masculine light grey bed. Paglabas ko sa kwarto ay tanging tunog lang ng aircon ang naririnig. Tahimik na pumasok ako sa kusina at dahan-dahang naglakad sa likod niya na walang ginagawang ingay.

His ripped sexy naked back was facing me. Lihim akong napangiti ng makita ko ang itim na shorts niya. His board shorts were desperately hanging on his waist. Kulang na lang ang ilang kalabit ay mahuhubaran na yata siya sa sobrang baba ng pagka suot niya. Mula dito sa kinatatayuan ko ay kitang-kita ang muscle ng likod niya at ang makapal na garter ng boxer niya. Damn, hot.

Handa na sana akong manggulat ng marinig ko ang malalim na pagtawa nito. He sighed while placing the food on the plate without even glancing at me and chuckled hoarsely. Ang mga buhok niya ay gaya ng akin na sabog at nagkalat rin pero kumpara sakin ay mas parang nakadagdag pa nang kagwapuhan niya ito. Damn this boy! I knew that he's already aware of my presence.

" Stop playing Eli, " tipid na sabi ninto kasabay ng pagiling-iling pa. I can even see his boyish grin from my distance. His exaggerated move makes his brown curly hair fall onto his forehead.

" Sit, bilisan mo " Napangisi nalang ako dahil mukha siyang tatay. Infact, I'm a year older than him.

I just giggled and started to get my plate and utensils as well. Ako na ang naghain para sa aming dalawa. Hinayaan ko nalang siyang mag asikaso ng pagkain namin tutal ay mas maalam naman siya pagdating sa mga ganyang bagay. He always cooks for me, for us. So I don't really have to think about cooking at all. Hindi na ako nag abala pang kumuha ng isang plato't kutsara dahil panigurado na makikisubo lang rin naman ito sa akin kapag nagsimula na akong tumikim ng ilang pagkain na nakalagay sa mesa.

Ever since we met and became friends that resulted in BFF's he is always the one who's more responsible and visionary. It felt like I have a young papa who's always guiding me and giving me lots of advice. Kaya naman palagi ko siyang inaasar na 'daddy'. Instead of being irritated he'll just kiss my cheeks so hard that his saliva was already feasting on my cheeks and will whisper 'Edi wow babaeng pangit'.

Even in public areas ay ginagawa niya pa rin ito sa akin. That's why I'm holding back myself to tease him in public. Napagkakamalan kaming kami.

Napagkakamalan pa tuloy kaming mga abusado at mapupusok na kabataan. Tahimik na umupo ako sa isang high stool na upuan para magsimula ng kumain. I was about to grabbed the plate when I felt his hands on my waist. Napatili nalang ako ng bigla niyang hinila ang baywang ko at ibinaon ang mukha niya sa leeg ko. He sniffed my neck like it was the most fragrant thing in this world.

Nuong una ay hindi pa ako sanay ngunit ng kinalauna'y nasanay rin ako. Maybe some of our actions were weird but as long as he didn't do anything bad to me. I will let him. Some say friends don't hug nor even touch each other's body. But I prove them wrong. You can be comfortable with him as long as he didn't cause you any single harm. Or you don't feel invaded at all.

Inintay kong magbitiw siya pero wala yata siyang balak magbitiw kaya naman hinayaan ko nalang muna.

I placed my chin on his ripped naked back. He's crouching so much despite that I was already sitting on the high stool. Kusang naglakbay ang mga mata ko sa likuran niya. Why does his body look so good, huh? Maybe from exercising? He tends to work out more these past few days. Minsan pag nag pupush up siya ay nakasakay ako sa likuran niya. I mentally nodded and take note my workout for next week. I sniffed more on his manly scent as his minty and homey familiar scent travel through my nostrils.
