exhausted from the tickle fight, we lay on the bed looking at the ceiling.
"JK....."
"hmmm..."
"thank you..."
"For what?"
"for everything.." she turned towards me & I looked at her. ...You're always there for me. when I'm with you... I smile a lot more... I laugh harder.. and all my worries seems to
fade away..."
she closed her eyes.
"I feel safe when I'm with you.. I feel at ease..." she continued.
I looked at her face with longing. knowing that what ever she's saying right now doesnt mean she loves me like I love her. I'm in pain.. but happy at the same time that I was able to give that to her. even though I know I can give her much more.
"are you getting cheesy on me?" I said as I tried to lighten up the mood.
She smiled. without opening her eyes... the next sentence made my heart stopped again..
"love you.. to the moon & back.."
then she's asleep.
--------------------------------------------------
I fell asleep right after her. I woke up seeing her face as soon as I opened my eyes & I like it.
*I can get used to this...*
I went to take a shower & looked at the menu but put it down immediately.
*I think we'll eat out.. I'll take her to Cafe Delmoondo Restaurant for breakfast. she would love that, coffee by the beach...*
I took my time in the shower & when I stepped out, she was already starting to wake up..
I PANICKED!! I only have towel on my waist! I should have brought my clothes or the ROBE in the shower!
*Dammit where my boxers?!?* I searched all over, as I kneel down to look under the bed..
"looking for this?" I heard her say
When I looked up from the side of the bed. she's holding my boxer in arms length.. with her other hand covering her eyes.
"YAH!!"
"I told you a thousand times... always pick up after yourself."
"give that back!!!"
she stood up still with her eyes closed & started to get off the bed.
"YAH!!!" I tried to grab my boxers but she was fast. She tried to run away with HER EYES CLOSED!"
"LOOK OUT!!!"
too late.. she hit one of the side table.
"OUCH!!"
I ran towards her as she clutch her knee..
"this is embarrassing.. "She chuckled.
"why didnt you open your eyes before running away!?!" I asked
"well you're half naked."
"so? Im just shirtless.. I still have the towel on."
"here." She gave me back my boxers.
"what??... getting uncomfortable are we?"
"JUST TAKE IT!"
"Ok!" I grabbed my boxers & went to the bathroom to change, when I went out she's on the bed, looking at her knee. her knee is turning blue & swollen.
"ouch..."
"ouch it is..." she chuckled.
I went to the phone & called room service.
"hi, can you bring an ice bucket to the room?... ok thanks"
After few mins the ice arrived. I took one of the towels from the bathroom & wrapped the ice w/ it & went to Olive.
she hissed as soon as I placed the iced towel on her knee.
"that should teach you a lesson."
"yeah you're right...never run away w/ my eyes closed when I nick your boxer."
"YAH!!"
"Sorry!.. Cant help it!. you throw your stuff all over as if you have a personal maid following you around.
"fine. no more messy room.
"Good. Now. I'm hungry." She stood up & limping towards the bathroom.
"YAH!" I followed her as I tried to help her walk.
"Oh hush you! I bumped my knee. I'm not crippled. move out of the way."
I let her leave, since she will have my head if I insist.
as I heard the shower I saw something in the corner of my eye that made me laugh.
Olive's lavander towel.
*I love you... but revenge is sweet...*
