Penelope's Rules □Completed□

#10: How I Fell In Love

As we danced to the sweet music, my heart thumped, as if any moment it will break out of my chest. Him holding me close is a heavenly feeling. I didn't know that he could make me feel this way. I didn't know that a man could make me feel this way.

Napakaganda ng decorations sa gym. Fairytale ang naging theme ng prom kaya lahat kami nakabihis prinsipe at prinsesa. Actually, sa simula ng school year, wala akong balak umattend ng prom pero dumating kasi si Ashton kaya hindi rin natupad ang plano.

At heto na nga kami ngayon, sumasayaw sa pinakahuling musika na ipapatugtog ngayong gabi.

"I'm so lucky to have you," bulong niya.

"Me too."

"But I'm luckier."

"Then I'm luckiest. Kahit na hindi ko nasunod ang plano ko at nilabag ko ang rules ko, okay pa rin kasi nandyan ka. You did not fail to make me happy. I have never been so happy. Thank you, Ashton."

"I love you, Penelope." Ilang beses niya ng sinabi 'yan pero hindi ako nakasagot noon. Ngunit ngayon, alam ko na kung ano ang isasagot ko diyan.

"I love you too, Ashton."

He leaned closer and closed the gap between the two of us. Our lips came in contact for the first time. He gave me the sweetest and gentlest kiss.

Rule #10: Falling in love in high school is strictly prohibited.

But I don't care about the rules anymore. Life isn't just about rules. You cannot take control of everything. Oo, may point na masasaktan tayo. May point na dahil sa nasaktan tayo, matatakot na tayong magmahal. There's a difference between fear and cowardness. We do not fear love, in fact, we are just too coward to take a chance in that so-called love.

So ano ngayon kung masaktan ka? Wounds will heal, scars will stay but hearts never stop loving. Nasaktan ako, sinaktan niya, kaya gumawa ako ng pader para hindi na maulit 'yun. Pero siya rin naman ang sumira ng pader na 'yun at tuluyan ng inenvade ang puso ko. At masaya ako na sinira niya ang pader na 'yun.

Alam kong hindi magiging perpekto ang relasyon namin, dadaan din ako sa sakit, iiyak rin ako ulit pero sino nga ba ako para pigilan ko ang nararamdaman ko dahil lang sa pangamba? I'd rather fall in love and be hurt than never love at all.

Walang rules para makaiwas ka sa pagmamahal. Darating at darating ang taong magiging parte ng sistema mo; ang siyang magiging happiness mo. At kahit gaano ka pa nakadepende sa rules mo, matitibag at matitibag rin 'yan.

But don't worry, because just like promises, rules are meant to be broken.

At ngayong mayroon ng Ashton ang buhay ko, kailangan ko na rin yatang baguhin ang rules ko.

Isa lang naamn ang kailangan kong rule.

Penelope's Rule: Love Ashton forever,

The End.
