The Past: The Cheating Game Begins

"You are making me feel again."

I gaped at him. Once again, he  was able to render speechless.  I was not sure if I heard him right or it's just the alcohol making a fool out of me. But I was almost at a sober state so maybe... maybe I really heard him say that I am making him feel again.

And if I am making him feel again, that only meant one thing and that is he's feeling something for me!

I couldn't help but smile. His confession made me ... happy. Yes, masaya ako to the point that I could literally feel my heart aching with joy.

I gazed up at him. "You like me, too," I said. I needed not to ask the question anymore.

He raked his fingers through his hair, there was an agonized expression on his face. He even shook his head. Hindi ko alam kung sa akin niya ba tinatanggi o sa sarili niya.

I crossed the distance between us. His eyes widened but I didn't give him any chance to step back or to move away. I tiptoed and reached up. I clasped his agonized, handsome face. I kissed him gently.

Hindi siya gumalaw noong umpisa kaya lalo kong punagbutihan ang ginagawa kong paghalik.  I nibbled his lower lip and but on it gently. My hands travelled from his face to his  hair. I combed the wet strands using my fingers.

Soon, his breathing hitched. I felt his groan against my lips and he encircled me around his arms. He pulled me closer to him. Everything happened so fast and the I next I knew was I was leaning against one of the pillars with him leading the kiss.

I opened my mouth and gave him more access. He slid his tongue inside meeting mine. He dominated me in a aggressive passion but slowly his lips' movement turned into something slow and patient.

Lalong lumakas ang buhos ng ulan. The drops of water were like needles on my skin almost causing a smarting sensation. I'm sure that he was feeling that, too. But neither of us gave a damn. He kept on kissing me and I kept on answering him back.

I was eyeing Luke while he was opening the rear door of his car. Hindi siya pumasok sa loob. Sa halip ay inabot niya ang isang gym bag at binuksan ito.  He fished out a towel pagkatapos ay lumapit siya sa akin.

I was seating on the shotgun seat with the door opened. My whole body was trembling. Kahit tumila na ang ulan ay pareho  kaming basang-basang pa rin.

He stood in front of me and he placed the towel on the top of me head like a viel. He started drying my hair. I remained still. Hinayaan ko siya sa ginagawa niya pero hindi ko inalis ang mga mata ko sa mukha niya. There were beads of water on his cheeks and forehead but regardless of him being soaking wet, he was still looking hot.

When my hair was nearly damp, he put the towel on my shoulder and wrapped me in it. His eyes finally landed on my face and without any word, he pulled me into his arms and he kisses me gently. I couldn't help but smile against his mouth. My lips were still swollen from the thorough kissing under the rain. It seemed like he could not get enough of me. But I ain't complaining. In fact, I was liking it.  Very much.

I responded to the every stroke of his lips. He placed his thumb under my chin and he tilted my face for a better angle. His other hand travelled from my shoulder to the crook of my neck and finally resting on my nape. I was itching to touch him, too but my arms were trapped in the towel.

When he finally pulled away, another smile graced my lips while his mouth remained slightly opened.

"What are you doing to me," he whispered, looking lost.
