Camila’s POV

“Giovanni, ang pogi mo!” A man shouted, definitely one of their team mates.

Giovanni laughed, and smiled playfully to the man. “S’yempre naman, two joints!”

Isang malakas na hagalpakan ang pinakawalan ng lahat nang tumugon ng ganoong sagot si Giovanni doon sa lalaki. Sinamahan pa niya ng pose ng two joints na mas lalong nagpatawa sa buong crowd.

Muling bumalik sa pagiging seryoso si Giovanni habang nakikipagsayaw sa debutanteng si Marianne. Nasaksihan ko rin kung paanong naghalu–halo ang inis at tawa sa mukha ni Marianne habang kasayaw ang malokong si Giovanni.

“And, for our last dance,” The emcee talked. “Let’s call for her older brother, Mr. Sevann Roswell!”

Everyone looked at our direction, they are all staring at my great Summa Cum Laude.

Earlier, Reid, and Khalil was included in the eighteen roses. I had noticed the closeness between Reid and Marianne while they were dancing in the center of the crowd.

The way Reid laughed with Marianne, the way he smiled, and the way he stared for a long time to the lady. I could tell that there is something that I could easily explain.

I couldn't tell, but I knew it, that was not a bond between your older brother. It felt like a bond with your someone. It is kind of a bond between you and your lover. It was not just a sibling–relationship. It was already on another level.

I hate my self for being so observant all the time. Perhaps, my speculations were all wrong, but there is a possibility that it could be right. I couldn’t help but to think about it.

Marianne’s first dance was her father, of course. Her daddy has a lot resemblance to Sevann. They did not need a DNA to confirmed their relation.

Sevann gave his one piece of rose to Marianne. His one rose completed the eighteen roses. I love how genuine his smiles whenever he was looking at his younger sister. The sincerity of those eyes, I could tell that he really adore his younger sister.

“Pogi mo talaga, Roswell!” One of the basketball player shouted it as a joke. They all laughed when that man shouted from our beside.

Sevann chuckled playfully when he turned his gaze to the man who shouted. “Alam ko, p’re! Kalmahan mo!” Sevann responded in a playful way.

We all laughed when he responded his remarks. Instead of being serious while dancing his younger sister, his time when dancing became funny. All of the visitors were laughing while enjoying the moment.

“Cheers to the eighteen year–old woman!” Giovanni yelled as he raised his hand while holding a glass of alcoholic drink on it.

We also raised our hands while holding a glasses of alcoholic drink. “Cheers!” We all yelled, a little bit drunk..

It was our fourth bucket of alcoholic drink. Khalil was so red, while Giovanni was almost sleeping on the floor because of too much alcohol. I don’t know if he was a low tolerance kind of person, because he was the first one who drunk immediately.

“Cheers to more years to celebrate!”

Nagsimula kaming magkwentuhan tungkol sa kung anu–ano. At, hindi rin naiwasan ang pag–uusap tungkol sa bastos na usapan, lalo na kung si Giovanni ang magsisimula nang ganoon.

Lumamlam na ang mata ko, tanda na hindi ko na kakayanin pa ang isa pang baso ng alak. Ramdam ko ring inaantok na ako dahil kumukurap–kurap na ang mga mata ko.

“I told you to not drink so much alcohol,” Sevann stated, lightly shaking his head on me. He wiped my forehead using his white handkerchief. “I am pretty drunk, too. I couldn’t take you home, yet.”

I looked at him, using my tired eyes. “No need,” I stood up, still a bit dizzy. “Do you have a guest room? Maybe, I could stay there for one night.” I suggested to Sevann.

He immediately raised his brow at me. “We had two guest rooms on the second floor,” He pointed the above, and turned his gaze on Denise. “Would you mind if you put Giovanni and Khalil to one of our guest rooms?”

Denise smiled at Sevann and nodded as a response. “Yeah, sure,” She stood up as she turned her gaze at the two men. “They both looks so heavy.”

Sevann let out a small laugh. He did not responded but he started guiding me towards the door. He held my waist so I held on his nape. I am just moving the parts of my body, not knowing what I am doing.

Pinilit kong buksan ang mga mata ko nang makarating kami sa harapan ng dalawang kuwarto. Ito na siguro yung tinutukoy niyang dalawang guest room. Napahikab ako, amoy ko agad sa aking hininga ang alak.

Hindi ko tuloy alam kung madidiri ba ako, o hindi.

Sevann held the door knob, and softly opened the door. He made me entered the room, before stepping in. He did not lock the door, and I don’t know why.

I am so dizzy, so I automatically fell on the bed inside the room. Naisama ko pa sa pagbagsak ko sa kama si Sevann dahil nakakapit siya sa bewang ko. Agad siyang tumayo nang sumama siya sa pagbagsak ko.

Inayos niya ang damit niya, at binigyan ako ng kumot. Akmang maglalakad na siya sana paalis nang hawakan ko ang kamay niya. Hinihingal akong napatayo nang hilahin ko ang kamay niya para tulungan ang sarili kong tumayo.

Nagtaka siya sa ginawa ko, napataas pa ang kilay sa akin. He caressed my face, and kissed the side of my lips. Daplis lang iyon.

I saw a smile on his face. “Good night, love.” He stated as he let go of me. I grabbed his hand again, making him face me as well.

I immediately took the chance and kissed him on his lips. I deepened our kiss, and I saw how shocked his reaction was. But, I did not mind that. I closed my eyes, and in one snap, I could felt his hands on my nape.

He kisses my neck, and I felt excitement because of that. Agad akong bumitaw sa gitna ng mga halikan namin. Bahagya pa akong nagulat nang bigla niya akong ipahiga sa kama. Bumilis agad ang tibok ng puso ko habang nakatingin ako sa kaniya.

Napapikit siya, at agad na napabangon. Napasinghap siya habang nakatalikod sa akin. Nanlalabo man ang mga mata ay nakita ko ang pagkuyom ng kamao niya.

“Continue, Sev,” I stated, and he hesitantly looked at me. “Please...”

I did not receive any response, but he just stood up, not knowing what to do. Napahinga siya nang malalim nang muli akong tumayo para halikan siya. Sa pagkakataong ito ay alam kong hindi na siya nakapagpigil.

“What the fuck, Camila.” He whispered, while he was kissing my neck. I was breathing so heavily.
