A Better World With You

Chapter 42

All I could see was all black, but I think my whole body is filled with colorful butterflies. As I Imagined it, It was all Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, and Violet. Indeed, I'm feeling all of the colors of the Rainbow. From then, it was cold, trying to warm myself alone. Whenever the sun goes down, it was midnight rains as always. But now, it is different. For the first time, I feel warm as if I was a flower absorbing the heat from a naturally, beautiful sunrise.

I am asleep and while feeling those things, I pulled someone closer to me and hugged that person tighter. I felt his hand on my hair, combing it and once he is done with his business, he gently slides down his hands starting from shoulder, to my arms, and capture my waist. He held my waist as If I am a fragile glass. It felt good. This feeling while I am sleeping, I want it to last long not until...

"Wow! What is this?" My eyebrows frown as I heard someone's cocky voice.

"Shh! You're too noisy, Cyril." I heard a girl's voice from my upper right and right there, I also heard a sound of a camera shot. Damn! I know who these people are. I immediately opened my eyes to stop them because I know they will be using this to tease me more, but the problem is, I am stunned by the beauty of the guy in front of me. My eyes softened as I analyze every bits of his imperfections. He really looks like an angel with playful attitude.

"Eh eh, parang ibang tingin na iyan, George." Pang-aasar na sabi sa akin ni Vielle at nalipat ang atensyon ko sa dapat na pakay ko.

"Paanong tingin, Vielle? Kinuhanan mo ba ng picture?" Nabigla pa ako nang biglang magsalita ang katabi ko at ngayon ay nakangisi na siya habang nakapikit pa rin. Umagang-umaga bunot na bunot ako ngayon sa pang-aasar. Tinampal ko si Justine sa dibdib nito at balak ko na sanang lumayo pero mas lalo lamang hinigpitan ang yakap niya sa aking baywang.

"Justine, let go! Nakakayanan mo ba ang mga pang-aasar na mga ito?" Iritadong sabi ko sa kanya at humalakhak lamang ito habang pinipigilan pa rin niya akong kumawala sa kaniyang bisig.

"Kunan mo lang, Kylie! Ang cute nilang dalawa." Kinikilig na sabi ni Vielle habang tinatapik ang balikat nito sa sobrang excited sa nangyayari. Si Kylie naman ay kagat labi pa habang todo ang pagkuha ng mga pictures gamit-gamit ang kaniyang cellphone.

"Gosh! You guys are so dead, I'm telling you!" Naiinis nang sabi ko sa kanila pero nakakairita dahil hindi talaga sila natatakot. Instead, aliw na aliw sila sa mga pangyayari. Sa sobrang gusto ko nang makawala sa bisig ni Justine na nilakasan ko na ang pagtulak ko rito. It was hard because he is too strong. Ano ba naman ang magagawa ng katawan kong payatot sa lalaking toned ang katawan? Kahit anong gawin ko mas hiniihigpitan niya lang ang yakap sa aking baywang.

"George, ang likot mo naman. Ayaw mo na ba mainitan ka ng katawan ko? Ang lamig ngayon oh." Napairap na lamang ako sa sinabi ng lalaki habang napapailing. Humagalpak naman ng tawa ngayon si Cyril sa sinabi ni Justine.

"Bro, you're being too clingy. It's so rare to see you like this." Tuwang-tuwa sabi ni Cyril at kitang-kita sa mata nito kung gaano siya natutuwa sa kaniyang kaibigan. It is genuine, but a hint of worriness is also visible.

"She's irresistable, Cyril. So what am I supposed to do?" Justine answered and this time, he let go of my waist and seat with me while still covering our feets with a blanket.

"Truly head over heels huh?" Cyril said and casually sat on the sofa while watching us with amusement. Sumunod din naman ang dalawa kong pinsan na babae at umupo sa tabi Cyril.

"You know I will never deny that." Justine answered at biglang nag-react ang dalawa na akala mo'y kiti-kiti kung kiligin.

"So...how does this happened?" Kylie asked at parehas kami ni Justine napakunot ang noo.
