I smile as i wake up right next to him. The cold breeze of Paris, France is just right for a heart warming cuddle.

I look at Light's face who's peacefully sleeping beside me. He looks exhausted from a blast of lovemaking last night yet he looks downright georgeous as ever.

Sometimes i wonder what i did to have him by my side. Imagine a guy that could accept my brother's punches just so he could have his permission to court me. I can still remember how kuya's punches sends him to hispital when we were in highschool.

He almost died because of it. I was crying the whole time and kuya Hero got grounded. I was upset at him because he beat the shit out of the guy i love, but his point was, he was just trying to protect me.

I really thought Light would stop but he pursue me still. I was too scared that time and everytime i see him, i always remember his bruised face because of my brother so i stay away from him.

We became civil though, we share the same world. The same circle of friends. Kuya Hero and Light became friends again and i was happy. Just to see him near me is always be enough. I always thank God for his existence. That's how much i love him.

Years passed by and i decided to study here in Paris. Good thing he's stydying in London which is just a train ride away from Paris. We crossed paths again and here we are. Sharing the same bed and appartment. Sharing everything.

Some might thought of this set up disgusting. We're not even married but we share the most of everything. But who cares? We're both happy about it.

I actually disagree at first. Imagine his three hours travel time from Paris to London Everyday just to get to school but he said it's okay as long as i will welcome him with a hug when he gets home.

"Wake up, Prinsipe ko. Malelate ka na." I tap his cheeks lightly. He grunted and burried his face in the hollow of my neck. I felt him kiss it and i let out a sexy chuckle.

"Few more minutes." He grunted.

"Light, you have an exam." Pangungulit ko pa rin. I smile as i realize that we look like a husband and wife. I always check his schedule and make it a point that he accomplish every task he have to. Ako ang nag-aayos ng schedule nya. Pati routine nya, ni ang damit na isusuot. And i could stay this way forever.

"Sige na nga Prinsesa ko." Pupungas pungas na bumangon sya kahit antok na antok pa. Hinalikan nya ako sa labi bago kinuha ang towel sa rack at pumasok sa banyo.

I cooked our breakfast and did'nt bother to change clothes and take a bath. Mamaya pa naman ang klase ko kaya maaasikaso ko si Light.

"We'll lessen the rounds of lovemaking, para hindi ka napupuyat." I said jokingly when i notice his yawns. Muntik pa akong matawa ng bigla syang umayos ang upo at nanlalaki ang mga matang tiningnan ako.

"Kaya ko naman e." Napabunghalit ako ng tawa sa sinabi nya. He pouted and look at me, frowning. I sit in his lap and drink coffee in his very mug. "Kasi naman. Paano kung bumagsak ka sa exam mo? Puyat ka o." I pinch his nose. "I dont want to be your downfall."

"Silly." He smiled and kiss my nose. "Im a genius. How can i fail my exam?" Mayabang na saad nya. "You'll only be my downfall if you leave me, Maddie." He said and my heart flushed. I kiss him wholeheartedly.

I fix his tie at the train station. Ihinatid ko sya doon gamit ang kotse namin.

'Namin' ang sarap isipin.

"I hate this uniform." Irap nya sa hangin habang itinutupi ang sleeves nya. Napatawa ako, Light is a future COO but he hate tux and ties. He's just a statement shirt type and he hates suit to the fullest. Ayaw na ayaw nya kasing naiinitan.

"Just read your notes at the train para hindi mo makalimutan 'yung nireview natin." I remind him. Hindi sya nagsalita so i look at him with confusion. He looks nervous.

Natawa ko. "Akala ko ba, you're a genius?" Pang-aasar ko.

"Im nervous." He heave a sigh. "Paano kung ibagsak ko 'to?" Off course he's nervous. Thus exam would tell if he will march during the graduation or not.

"Prinsepe ko.." i cup his face and made him look at me. "You're Light Banchero. My Prince. And no matter how many times you fail i will still love you to the fullest. So just relax. Kasi pumasa ka man o hindi, pag-uwi mo sa bahay nandon pa rin ako at naghihintay." He smiled at what i said. "Tsaka tandaan mo, sakin ka lang pwedeng bumagsak."

He laugh heartily and kiss me.

"Iloveyou." He said lovingly at me.

But all the good things must have an end.

We graduated and finish our courses here. We need to get back in the Philippines where the reality is. Natatakot ako na baka mangyari na naman. Na baka hindi na naman sila maging okay ni kuya.

"You want our relationship secret?" Hindi makapaniwalang tanong ni Light habang nag-eempake ako ng gamit. Im going back to the Philippines because kuya is bugging me. Kapag daw hindi pa ako umuwi ay sya na ang pupunta dito at kakaladkarin ako. Natakot naman akong totohanin nya iyon kaya nagpabook na ako ng flight. si Light naman ay may aasikasuhin pa sa School kaya mauuna akong umuwi.

"Light, you know kuya will get mad." I exclaimed.

"Maddie you're at the right age. You can decide for yourself. I wont settle to be your dirty little secret." He blurted out in anger. I sigh as i sit at the bed. Akala nya ba madali sakin to? I look at him while he was leaning at the door.

"You're not some dirty little secret. Alam mo 'yan."

"That's what i feel." He answer. I stand up and go to where he was standing. I cup his face and kiss his lips.

"Iloveyou. But im not ready to tell them yet." Pinalis nya ang kamay ko sa muka nya at umismid. My heart clenched at what he did.

"Better yet, let's end this relationship." He mumble. I was astonished at what he said. It's like a bomb that exploded infront of my face.

"What?"

"If you cant stand beside me and fight for this relationship then let's break up." He said in finality. My tears stream down my face. I cant even imagine how it was easy for him to break up with me.
