Its nights like this when I regret being choosy when it comes to boys.

I can't talk to any of my friends since all of them are busy chatting their boyfriends or kalandian.

Wala akong ibang magawa kundi titigan nalang ang kisame ng kwarto ko. I'm thinking of calling him, kaso baka tulog na sya.

Pero nagulat nalang ako ng biglang may kumatok sa bintana ko. Dahan-dahan akong naglakad palapit dito since di ko rin alam kung hayop ba ito o tao dahil nakaharang ang kurtina sa bintana.

Basta kapag di ko ito kilala o akyat-bahay ito, sigaw nalang agad ako sabay takbo.

Dahan-dahan akong lumapit sa bintana,

Isa..

Dalawa..

Tatlo!


"Boo."

Sinimangutan ko lang sya habang binubuksan ang bintana para papasukin sya, agad din naman itong pumasok.

"Akala ko magnanakaw! What are you even doing in here, in this ungodly hour?" saad ko habang nakapamewang at pinapanood itong humiga sa couch na naka pwesto sa ibaba ng kama ko na katapat ang tv.

"I know you're bored so I decided that we're going to have an XMEN marathon and I brought chips, a litre of cola and pizza. I know you love XMEN and pizza, don't even deny it, so this is a win-win situation. Now come here and cuddle with me." dirediretso nitong saad habang inilalagay ang CD sa player saka bumalik sa couch.

"How did you even know I love XMEN? Are you a stalker, Robbie?" I said with a mocking frown on my face.

Robbie is our neighbour's only son. He's also basically my neighbour since our windows are like four feet apart, which explains why he was knocking on my window, he could basically jump and still be alive since both our house is a simple two-storey.

We're not bestfriends. We're just close enough to jump on each others room and talk about useless things. And cuddle. Everynight.

He stared at me before saying, "Laura, I can't really unhear your squeals about Wolverine's biceps and Quicksilver's 'cuteness' so excuse me if I sound like a stalker."

Wala na akong ibang ginawa kundi maglakad palapit sakanya na kasalukuyang pina-pat ang bakanteng pwesto sa couch.

"Shut up, now move." mahina ko syang tinulak saka ako pabagsak na umupo sa couch at sinimulang manood.

I don't really know how but at the end of every movie marathons we do, I always end up resting my body in his side, his head rested in my head which is rested on his shoulder and his hands ruffling my hair. Maybe its an unspoken rule or law but I'm not against it.

And its moments like this when I thought being choosy is so damn worth it if it means to have myself in his arms.
