Falling in Love with You in 16 Words

Chapter 9: Oblivious

Meg's POV

Washington, Adams, Jefferson, Madison, M..aa.drigal.... Monroe, Adams, Madrigal... D*MN! Margaise Jane Ibañez kailan pa nagkaroon nang Madrigal na US President?!!!

I am in my room, lying in my bed, and trying to memorize some things for distraction, so I'll stop thinking about him. US Presidents napagtripan kong imemorize since I just finished watching "On the line". Yung mga bida kasi doon nirecite yan habang nasa train sila. It was a romantic moment, you'll see how their eyes sparkle after they finished reciting them and realized that they're breathing is in sync. They are both strangers---- they just met for the first time on that train but in a blink of an eye, sparks flew and they felt that so-called connection.

Naramdaman ko na ba yon? Kailan? Is it when we were in his room, when I opened that music box and when he sang along with the tune? or is it those times when I laughed at his stupid jokes? or is it that time when he sang Shane's song in front of the whole class while looking at me?

Meg stop. It's just your imagination. Stop assuming na may ganon kayong connection ni Maxfield.

I know it sounds weird but I never had this kind of feeling before. I always tell to myself not to fall for him.

I just can't resist it. Like, who is he to bother me like this? Who is he that can't make me sleep at night? Whenever I hear his name my heart pounds. He is the only person who makes me think about things I have never thought about before. Not by what he says, but by the way he looks at me. It always makes me wonder what is he thinking?

Meg just wake up, he is your friend, your best male friend. He confided to you. He likes someone else. He will never like you.

I turned to the other side of the bed and saw the clock on the side table, shoot! Its 11 PM. Maaga pa ko bukas. Kung anu-ano kasing pinag-iisip mo, mapupuyat ka na naman. Hay nako Meg.

I sighed then shut my eyes closed and tried to catch sleep.

Hoping these thoughts will not chase me also in my dreams.

Max's POV

Okay na kaya 'to? Sana magustuhan nya. I doubled check the lyrics that I printed one by one. Nagburn din ako ng bagong CD na may kanta ni Demi Lovato at ng Jonas brothers. I also added some of Adam Lambert's songs from American Idol. I recently found out that Jane likes him.

"Kung hindi lang talaga bakla si Adam, I would like to marry him someday." she said once habang nagkwekwentuhan sila ni Cee.

I know it was a joke, nagselos ako ng konti but at least, may nalaman ako na isang bagay na gusto nya.

Max konti na lang magmumukha ka ng stalker, buti hindi ka nabubuko. Last time nadulas kang alam mong Yellow ang favorite color ni Jane.

I just need to have the perfect timing para magconfess sa kanya. Mag iipon muna ako ng maraming lakas ng loob. For now sapat na 'tong gagawin ko ngayon to make her feel good.

I felt Meg is a bit upset dahil sa nangyari sa long quiz namin sa Chem kahapon. Si Mrs. Rivera kasi medyo mahigpit talaga at nakakatakot dahil sa bigla-biglang parusa nya sa amin.

"Okay class, I hope na nag review kayong lahat for this quiz today," she said yesterday

"Yes Ma'am nagreview po kami." Cee said.

"Are you sure? Okay so ganito, everytime na may makikita akong nangongopya or kahit natingin sa papel ng katabi, may pupunitin akong papel."

"Okay po Mam, walang magpapahuli na nangongopya ha, boys?" sabi ni Jace
