Your Secret is safe with Me [On Hold]

Part 11

"Nah. I just wanna ask what I'm doing in your canvass."

Damn. He knows. I was too stunned to speak. I literally can't think of anything.

Should I deny it?

Nah. He knows his body very well!

Then should I just say it's him?

No! That's also not an option!

"Lost your tongue, kiddo?"

I averted my gaze as he was staring intensely at me.

"What... what are you saying?", I said, feigning innocence. I cleared my throat. "This is a —hey! What are you doing?!"

His taking his fucking shirt off in front of me! Is this a live show?!

Argh. Why is my mind always thinking of dirty thoughts?!

"I thought you wanted to paint my body?", he asked as if he was clueless.

Argh! Where is he getting his confidence? I can't say those words with a straight face yet here he is, doing all of these effortlessly.

"Fine! I painted you, okay? So stop teasing me."

He grinned at me and tilted his head. "I'm not teasing you. I'm even letting you paint my body. You could even touch me if you want to.", he said and acted like he was going to get my hands to put it in his body.

I moved away from him.

WHAT THE HECK?

"What are you thinking?! You're gross! Put your shirt back on.", I said and acted disgusted.

He let out a sexy laugh and put his shirt back on.

Oh ghaddd.

"Stop fooling around, Raphael. Go out of my room now, please."

As if on cue, Kevin called out Raphael.

Thank goodness. I wouldn't last a second more in this room with him. He's just too much!

I stayed in my room all day long. I only went out to eat lunch. Luckily, Raphael didn't tease me during lunch.

I also overheard that Raphael's parents got caught in the storm and couldn't go home for the next two days.

IT ONLY MEANS HE'LL BE EXTENDING HIS STAY.

When I was still a child, I used to be happy when Raphael stay for the night. The three of us—Me, Raphy, and Kevin— would always stay up til late evening just to play a bunch of games. But that stopped during Kevin's Senior year in high school. I just don't know what happened.

I guess because of puberty?

I decided to continue my painting after dinner. I was done painting the body and am now painting his face. I decided to not put any facial features. I also colored his hair black.

Raphael has this soft brown hair. I hope Kevin won't notice the resemblance. Raphael already knows he's the one in my painting so I guess there's no need to hide it from him.

I was too tired and got into bed early that evening. I woke up around 2:30 am as I need to pee. I was also thirsty so even though I'm still half awake, I decided to go down to our kitchen and get some water.

The lights are already off and the dim light in the living room is the only light I can see. I walked slowly to prevent bumping in corners.

I opened the fridge's door. I initially planned to drink water but seeing the Fresh Milk changed my mind. I took the bottle out and drink on it.

"Kiddo."

I almost jumped when I heard Raphael whisper. I looked at my back and there he is, standing and staring sleepily at me.

His hair's messy but he still looks divine. There's only little light but It only made him look so fucking gorgeous in those white shirts and pajamas.

Why does he look like he smells good? I mean, It makes me want to go and sniff him.

My throat ran dry as I try to swallow the lump in my throat.

"Ra- Raphael... why are you still awake?"

He came closer so I got a good look at him. Argh, does having only 4 hours of sleep make my brain useless? Why does he look so fucking good?! I want to launch myself into him!

Sammy, control yourself.

"I'm thirsty.", he whispered when he got closer. He no longer has those sleepy eyes. He's staring at me with his dark eyes.

"Do you want water? Or maybe, some milk?", I asked trying to shrug off his stares. I lifted my hand with the bottle of milk.

He looked at it then back at me.

"Milk.", he said. "Don't move."

Everything happened so fast. I was not able to react when he leaned down and licked the other side of my lips.

He smirked. "It tastes good.", he said and held my hand which is also holding the bottle of milk. He then drank the milk.

I was stunned. I only stared at him.

That caught me off guard! My cheeks felt hot. Can he see I'm blushing?

He licked his lips after finishing the bottle of milk. Why can't I stop staring at his lips? It's hypnotizing.

"I think, there's some left here too.", he said and touched the other side of my lips with his thumb.

That's when I snapped out of it. I took a step back.

"I'll... I'll get going.", I said stuttering as my heart fluttered. I walked past him as fast as I could.

Come on, Sammy. Calm the fucking down! I can feel my heart beating so fast. What is happening to me? Why is my hear always beating fast when I'm with him? This is not good.

I heard him laugh faintly as I reach for the stairs. I was almost in my room when he pulled me and pinned me to the wall.

What the?

He's so fast! How could he run so fast?

"Raphael. What are you doing?", I asked, trying to lower my voice as Kevin and my parents might hear us.

He tucked a few strands of my hair behind my ears. I can feel the blood rushing to my face.

"Stop this. I need to rest. I still have classes tomorrow."

"I can't sleep. I'm wide awake now. Can we use your toys?"
