Dare

5- Childhood

Kenzo's POV

Finally, we ended up being a couple. I love her so much, really. Ngayon lang ako nagkaroon ng chance para masabi yun. Well, i'll thank Catherine later for that dare.

Dito ako natulog sa floor ni Ellie. Kakatapos ko lang linisin yung floor niya at sa wakas. Makakatulog na ako. Hindi ako uminom ng marami, syempre. I want to be a good boy to my girl. Si El nakarami dahil sumali siya sa beer pong game. Of course, lasing na lasing.

Pagkatapos kong itabi yung mop, pumunta na ako sa kwarto ni Ellie. She's resting on her classic silver headboard. Maybe she heard the door creaked open kaya nagising siya sa pagkakaiglip niya.

I smiled at her before i kissed her forehead.

"I bet you need more sleep young lady. I'll watch you." I plopped down on the other side of her bed and lay her down on my chest. She's still pretty even when she was sober.

"You better sleep too my man." She kissed my cheek.

"I love you, beautiful." I said before i kiss her lips.

"I love you too."

"Don't say "Too" baby. It's like you're just agreeing to me. When i say I love you, well you better response the same. Okay?"

"Sorry. I love you." She kissed my jaw first before she sleep.

"I love you." And we drifted to our wonderful dream while cuddling. Okay, this will be my favorite thing.

Ellie's POV

I woke up without Kenzo on my side. Where the hell is he? Even my head is killing me, I stood up and wear my slippers. Lumabas agad ako ng kwarto, i smell my favorite aroma of coffee and bacons and eggs. Nakita ko si Kenzo, wearing his sweat pants and my floral apron. Wala siyang pang itaas that's why his muscles and damn, his perfect body being my perfect morning view today. He's preparing the table while humming a song. Lumapit ako sakanya and hugged him from his back. Gods, i love his smell.

"Good morning, my sunshine." Sabi niya bago umikot para humarap sakin.

"Mornin' babe." I replied while wrapping my hands on his hips. He did the same.

"How's your sleep? Di ba masakit ulo mo?" He ask while kissing my forehead.

"My head is killing me. Can i have any advil and water?" It's true. My alcohol tolerance is high, pero nalalasing parin ako. Gods, it's killing me.

"Sit there honey. Kukuha ako." Inalalayan niya ako umupo bago pumunta sa kwarto ko para kumuha ng gamot.

Pagkabalik niya, nakatanggal na yung apron niya. As a result, his v-line and 4 packs abs were showing. Oh god, how did i get this perfect adonis?

"Drink this baby. I'll get your water." He pats my head first.

"Thank you." I thanked him after he gave my water.

"Kain na tayo?" Tanong niya.

"Sure. Gutom na rin ako."

Binigyan niya yung plato ko ng bread, bacon tsaka itlog. He's so caring you know.

"Babe." I call him.

"What?"

"Up for 2 hour long drive?"

"Yeah. Always. Uh- San tayo pupunta?" He raised his one brow.

"My family." I smiled cheekily.

"Really babe? Gusto mo kong ipakilala sa pamilya mo?" Well, kaninang nagising ako ng madaling araw to pee, nag call ako kay mommy. Sinabi ko sakanya yung tungkol samin ni Kenzo. Tuwang tuwa nga siya e. Sabi niya, "Sa wakas, hindi tatanda ng dalaga ang anak ko." I shook my head at the memory.

"Yes babe. Hihintayin nila tayo ngayon."

"Oh god. I'm nervous. Baka itaboy ako ng daddy mo, or worst patayin niya ko." He said nervously. Natawa ako ng malakas. God, he's so cute when he overacts.

"Bat ka tumatawa?" Tanong niya habang nakataas yung kilay.

I just roll my eyes and said, "Wala, you're cute when you're nervous you know that?"

"Kaya nga nainlove ka e." He winks. Nagsisi tuloy ako bat ko sinabi yun. The hell, pulang-pula na ko.

"Uy kapal ha." I stuck my tongue out.

"Dont be denial darling."

"Just saying the truth, darling."

"Don't be a liar love."

"Okay, i surrender." I roll my eyes.

"You know, i love it the way you roll you're eyes." He mocks my famous eye rolling.

"Well, i love the way you mocks me." I pinch his nose. Kiniliti naman niya ko kaya binitawan ko na agad. Pero hindi niya parin ako tinigilan. Tumakbo na ako papunta sa sala and protect my body using my pillows.

"Run baby. Run!" He said devilishly. Oh my god. Ayoko ng ganito.

"Stop!!!" I said pero nahuli parin niya ko. He didn't stop tickling my waist and neck hanggang sa napagod na siguro siya. I ended up sitting on his lap still giggling.

"Oh my god kenz. Don't do that again." I said while glaring at him.

"HAHAHAHA! I'm sorry babe. I love you."

"I hate you!" I playfully roll my eyes.

"I love you more." He stuck his tongue out.

"I didn't say i love you."

"But i know you do." He smiled, kissing my nose.

"Okay, I love you." I kissed him softly. I love his gentle touch. Hinawakan ko ang batok niya habang sinusuklay ang buhok niya gamit ang kamay ko. His hair was so soft. He got his hair trimmed. His jaw was perfectly defined lalo na ngayong bagong gupit siya.

He licked my bottom lip, asking for entrance. I let him and our kiss deepened. He pulled back saying,

"I love you, my Ellie." He kissed my forehead before getting up.

Dumiretso kami sa kusina para iligpit yung lamesa. Our supposed to be breakfast time turned out into making out session.

Pagkatapos namin hugasan yung mga plato, nagpahinga muna kami sa sala. We watch some movie and cuddle the whole day. Bukas nalang kami pupunta kila mommy.

"Tell me about your childhood baby." He said while caressing my hair.

"Nothing interesting babe." I said while tracing something oh his abdomen.

"Then tell me about your non-interesting childhood." I giggle at his response.

"Okay. When i was 4, my kindergarten. I met kenzy."

Kenzo's POV

"Okay. When i was 4, my kinderarten. I met kenzy." That sounds familiar.

"Their family was supposed to be our family friend. Lagi siyang nasa bahay kase lagi din nandoon yung mommy niya. That's why naging kababata ko siya. We were classmates hanggang nung prep kami. Saw that picture babe?" Tanong niya sakin habang tinuturo yung picture frame sa bedside table niya.

"Yes, yung may daisy ka sa tenga and a necklace with the initials KE?"

"Exactly. That necklace was given by him nung 6th birthday ko. The saddest part is, nung nalaman kong umalis siya papuntang california for good. Walang paalam. Yung necklace nalang yung remembrance ko sakanya. I cried everyday. Nangungulila ako sa best friend ko." She said on her flat tone. I saw a tear fell down on her pink cheeks. I know that feeling. Ganyan din kaya si Liza? I think now that i have my girl, wala na akong rason para hanapin siya. Balang araw magkikita rin kami. I'll focus on mine first.

"Don't worry babe. Someday magkikita rin kayo." I kissed her head.

She fell asleep under my arms.
"I'll protect you and love you always, my darling." i muttered under my breath and kissed her head first before i fell asleep.
