Hearts Between Colors (Isla Contejo #3)

Chapter 24

MARAHANG shina-shampoo-han ni Rodean ang buhok ko habang ako ay pinaglalaruan ang tubig mula sa shower. His fingers were carefully massaging my scalp with the shampoo.

"Invited ako sa isang Gala event sa Sabado, love," sambit ko at nilingon siya nang bahagya sa likod ko.

Sinilip lang niya ang mukha ko nang ilang segundo bago ibinalik ang tingin at pokus sa buhok ko.

"Alright? You'll attend?" tanong niya.

"Gusto ko. My friends in the industry will go and I want to socialize. Ang tagal na rin kasi no'ng huli kong pakikipag-socialize. I miss some of them." I chuckle. "And I miss partying a little."

Ilang linggo na ang lumipas matapos kong ipagtapat sa publiko ang relasyon namin. Narito pa rin ako sa Isla Contejo at t-in-urn down ko na lahat ng endorsements at runway shows ko dahil gusto ko munang matahimik ang mundo ko pansamantala.

As expected, Tita Deborah got mad, but she couldn't do anything. Hindi niya ako mapipilit na bumalik ng Maynila para sa mga endorsements ko. Kung gusto niya na akong bitiwan bilang talent niya dahil sa katigasan ng ulo ko, it was fine. Go ahead. I didn't care anymore. I have enough savings in my account from all the hard works I've done in the industry. I could even build my own agency. I could work without a manager.

Inurong ako ni Rodean upang mapatapat ako sa shower. He gently rinsed my hair. The bubbles from the shampoo glided down my naked body.

"You should go, then. I bet your friends miss you, too."

"Sama ka. I want a date," pag-aaya ko.

"Hmm . . ."

Nang tuluyan niyang mabanlawan ang buhok ko ay iniharap niya ako sa kaniya. Umabante siya kaya napaatras ako. Siya naman ngayon ang tumapat sa shower. Mataman kong pinagmasdan ang paglandas ng tubig mula sa kaniyang ulo pababa sa dibdib at pababa pa lalo.

"I don't like parties and events, love."

Doon lang ako napaangat ulit ng tingin sa mukha niya. I was welcomed by his blazing and observant stare. I picked up the bottle of liquid body soap and put an enough amount of liquid on my palm before I brought the bottle back to the rack. Sinimulan kong sabunin ang katawan niya magmula leeg hanggang dibdib. He was just watching me closely.

"I don't wanna go there alone. I need a date. My friends will probably have their own dates. Ayokong ma-out of place," katwiran ko pa.

Yumuko ako nang kaunti nang ang puson niya na ang sinasabunan ko.

"And I wanna introduce you personally to everyone," dagdag ko. "Please?"

I stood straight again and leveled his face. My hand held on his hard thing to gently soap it, as well. The growing fire in his eyes didn't escape my sight.

"Please?" My hand started stroking it.

Slowly, he crouched to plant a shallow kiss on my lips. I responded until the kiss went deeper. His thing on my hand was getting more erect.

"Rodean," I called in between our kiss.

"Hmm?" Unti-unting bumaba ang mga halik niya sa panga ko papuntang leeg.

"Be my date. Please . . ."

Napakagat ako sa pang-ibabang labi ko nang hapitin niya ang baywang ko upang mas mapalapit ang katawan ko sa kaniya. His hands went down on my butt and squeezed it tightly.

"Beg more," he whispered.

He groaned softly when I stroked his length faster. "Pretty please?"

Ang isang kamay niya ay unti-unting napunta sa gitna ng mga hita ko. Mahina akong napasinghap nang dahan-dahang humagod ang mga daliri niya roon.
