Love Persist

Kabanata 35 - What's understood doesn't need to be explained.

My heart beat even faster when I felt Ceci's warm hands sa skin ko at hindi na ako naka-complain pa because she quickly carried me, supporting my weight under my thighs. I wrapped my arms around her neck and legs around her waist. Hindi kami nagtagal sa gano'ng posisyon because she lowered me sa kama. Pumatong din siya kaagad sa akin with her hand slipped sa ilalim ng blouse ko and traveled on my own skin. Hindi ko napigilan ang sarili but exhaled shakily. My hand found purchase on her shoulder, and I gently tugged her hair to get her back up to eye level.

Damn it.

She looked so hot with those dark eyes and messy hair. If only the intensity of someone's gaze had the power to incinerate me, I was certain that I would have been reduced to ashes in no time.

"Do me right, Ceci."

Hinila ko ang buhok niya para magtapat ulit ang mga labi naman. In contrast sa kiss namin earlier, this kiss had a slightly slower pace, as if we were seeking the perfect rhythm that appealed to both of us. I found myself getting lost in the moment and losing track of how long we had been intimately entwined until I broke away momentarily to catch my breath. Her lips continued to travel downward, peppering my neck with chaste kisses,, and I unconsciously rolled my head back para bigyan siya ng access sa neck ko.

As her hand ventured onto my thigh once more, I was overcome with an intensified wave of sensation. Hindi na ako makapaghintay. Her hand was veering dangerously close to where I needed her the most, and I wanted her to touch me down there.

"Take off my clothes," I ordered.

She stopped kissing me and looked at me with burning eyes. "Are you really sure about this? You still have time to reconsider because once you discard those layers, I don't think I'll be able to control myself."

"You are asking for this while I'm practically already at your mercy. Just do it already, kiss me, touch me—do whatever you want with me."

I watched transfixed as her gaze darted from my eyes, doing the classic eye-lip-eye move before she leaned in. Just as our lips were about to reconnect, she slyly tilted her head and grazed my ear with her whispered words...

Oh, shoot!

Hindi ko pa naaabsorb ang nangyayari basta napaangat ang katawan ko bigla.

"Where am I?" I thought to myself.

Nang tingnan ko ang paligid, napamilyar ko ang mga kagamitan sa silid. I realized na nasa condo ako ni Professor Gil, and I was currently in her bed, and I was alone inside the room, and the room was a bit dim since nakasara pa 'yong mga curtains but I could tell na it was already morning (or evening? I didn't know kasi kagigising ko lang) basta sa nababasa kong oras sa bedside table; it was 7:11.

I calmed myself. I wasn't kidnapped.

Then, accidentally dumaan ang paningin ko sa malaking stand mirror ng room at nakita ko ang sarili rito. The clothes I was wearing wasn't mine; wala akong maalala na ganitong damit na pagmamay-ari ko. This was probably Professor Gil's, for sure.

Holy shit.

"Oh, my God! Oh, my God! What did I just dream about!" I chanted repeatedly.

Napahilamos ako ng mukha ko gamit ang mga kamay ko at saka ko lang napagtanto na I was sweating at ang init ng balat ko. Paulit-ulit din nagrereplay sa isipan ko ang naging dream ko na mas lalong nagpainit ng mukha ko.

Dream lang ba talaga 'yon?

Goodness.

I can't tell kasi parang totoo, and nabobother ako lalo na sa lower part ng katawan ko. Ramdam na ramdam ko 'yong unpleasant feeling between my thighs. Something was hot and kind of wet.
