Flickered By Innocence (Crossing The Line Series 4) ✅

F.B.I-17

"Zein, gumising ka na, please..." boses iyon ni Ezra habang pinipilit akong buhatin patayo sa aking kama.

"Magtatampo si Aaron kapag 'di ka sumama," Kyle guiltripped me.

I heard Levi squeal. "Tsaka for sure yung babes ko yung magiging Prom King kapag ako yung pumili ng susuotin niya, kaya gumising ka na Zein."

"Ghorl, kasali ka din mamaya 'di ba? Ayaw mo ba... maging Prom King?" Mapang-asar na tanong ni Ezra.

Levi gasped in disbelief. "Sa ganda kong 'to? Sa tingin niyo mananalo akong Prom King?!"

Padabog akong umupo mula sa aking pagkakahiga habang nakabusangot ang mukha. "Please be quiet! Can't you all see that I'm sleeping? It's still 7 am on Saturday..."

Kyle hugged me and kissed my cheeks. "Alam mo, Zein? Ang cute mo 'pag bagong gising. Picture-an kaya kita tapos i-post natin sa Ravenwood Secret Files na group page?"

"Oo nga, sawa na ako sa mga stolen shots nila Gellian. Mas okay sana kung pictures niyong tatlo yung nakikita ko." Ezra grumbled.

I scratched my eyes before I looked at Ezra. "Why don't we post your pictures instead, Ezra? You can pass as a model because of your pretty face and height. To be honest, you're a complete package."

"Ehem!" Kyle and Levi cleared their throats, trying to catch our attention.

Nawala ang antok ko nung makita ko silang dalawa na nag-ala FHM Model sa pag-pose. Kyle is pouting his heart-shaped lips while lying down on the floor, while Levi, on the other hand, is sitting beside Kyle with his head up to showcase his perfect neckline.

My friends never fail to make me happy. Growing up, I only had Gellian on my side. I'm a very shy student, that's why I find it hard to get along with others. Perhaps, the reason why I never feel alone without Gellian is because of them. Our bond together is wholesome.

"Aaron, I thought you already had a tailer-made tux. Why do you need to choose a new one?" tanong ko sa kanya habang nakaupo sa bean bag chair.

He rubbed his nape, feeling shy. "Hindi ko kasi gusto yung gawa ng nagtahi kaya... papatulong sana ako sa 'yo pumili nang bago."

Nandito kami ngayon sa Gardini Fashion Center, dahil gaya ng sinabi nila Kyle ay sasamahan namin ang grupo nila Aaron na pumili ng suit na kanilang susuotin. Mamaya na kasi gaganapin ang JS Prom na matagal nang hinihintay ng mga dadalo. Sa grupo namin nila Kyle ay si Levi lang ang makakasali. Junior High na siya samantalang ako, si Kyle at Ezra ay kapwa Sophomores palang.

"OMG! Ang gwapo mo, babes!" Malakas na hiyaw ni Levi nung lumabas si Roque mula sa fitting room.

Roque is wearing an Ivory Linen suit and pants, and it matches his bright and quirky personality. Ezra also gave compliments to Leonard, who's in a jacquard tuxedo, while Kyle has no expression while surveying Gabriel from head to toe. Gab looks sharp in his Burgundy Red suit.

"Baby Zein, what do you think?"

I averted my eyes at Aaron when he went out of the fitting room too. My eyes widened in surprise upon seeing him wearing a white tuxedo suit that has the same style with Gellian. It's a slim-fit type and it looks good on him since he has a nice upper body.
