Warning: 🔞

I left my room after less than an hour since Red and I went inside. I took time fixing myself before I went out. Red wanted to go with me, but I convinced him to sleep. I unconsciously licked my lips when an image of us kissing flashed my mind. Uminit ang pisngi ko.

Our first kiss happened today, but it doesn't feel like it's our first time because we kissed a lot. I just can't stop myself from kissing him.

"Halos isang oras nawala, akala ko ba hinatid mo lang?" Clara greeted me with her mouth blabbering.

"Ang layo ba ng kwarto mo, Rain?" imbis na mainis, humagalpak ako ng tawa nang makita ang mukha ni Aiden nang humarap siya.

"Bakit ganyan ang mukha mo?" his teasing smile turned into a frown. Puro harina yung mukha niya. Mukha siyang naghanap ng piso sa harina gamit ang bibig.

"Tanungin mo yang mga kaibigan mo." tumalikod siya ulit at bumalik sa ginagawa.

"Wow, parang ikaw lang yung lugi dito ah?" I laughed even more when I saw Blake. Nandito na siya at puro harina rin ang mukha at damit.

Tinignan ko sila isa-isa at doon ko napagtanto na lahat sila ay madudungis. I clapped my hands while laughing. This is too much comedy.

"Sana pala hindi na lang muna ako bumalik dito." Blake added, regretting his decision of coming back here.

"Oo nga. Saan ka nga pala galing, Blake?" Leigh asked curiously.

"Diyan lang." Blake said nonchalantly. Or should I say, while pretending to be nonchalant.

"Saang diyan lang?" Leigh asked impatiently.

"Diyan lang." nanliit ang mga mata ko dahil sa sagot niya. I have an idea, but I don't want to assume. He noticed that I was looking at him, the reason why he looked back. I looked at him even more suspiciously this time.

I averted my gaze from him to Nathan and Elijah, who are now shaping cookies.

"Kanina pa kayo rito, bakit ganyan pa lang nagagawa niyo?" I asked them, walking closer to them to help.

"They keep on messing up." Nathan answered shortly.

"You mean we?" Kiel clarified. He is shaping cookies too, but in a cute way. I don't know but everything Kiel does is adorable.

"Si Aiden ang nagsimula." Clara pointed at Aiden. "Tapos kayo ang nagpatuloy." sagot ni Aiden, ayaw magpatalo.

"Ako ang tumapos." Blake looks so proud now. He showed me the cookies that he is shaping. I smiled at him. He even tried to make a heart-shaped one. "Kung hindi ko tinapos, baka mukha na kayong harina na tinubuan ng tao."

We burst out laughing, imagining what he just said.

"Okay! That's fine, I guess. We only need to bake it for at least ten minutes." Clara asked Ram to put the cookies inside the oven.

We stayed at the kitchen, playing and talking while waiting for the cookies.

"How are you and Red?" I almost fell from my seat when Ram suddenly spoke. "I'm sorry. Is it too much to ask? You don't need to answer if you're uncomfortable." he gently smiled, assuring me that it's okay to not answer his question, but I guess I am always ready to tell them things, including the thing between me and Red.

"We are okay." I can't help but smile thinking about Red. Perks of being into someone. You'd smile out of nowhere, even without you knowing. "We are more than okay actually." I saw how they smiled, comprehending my statement. They probably know by now what we really are.
