" Date me " he said .
"After classes " I answered .
" Date me " he said once again .
"Yes , I will but after classes ."My voice raised a bit .
He kept quiet and continued eating .
" I need to go now, lunch is almost over , bye ." I kissed the side of his head and left him on the table .
Before I could even totally walk away from the cafeteria I received a text message and it was from Con .
From : Captain Constantine IV
I command you to date me later .
I laughed a bit and continued my journey to my room .
To : Captain Constantine IV
Aye aye Captain .
The remaining classes were boring and all I could think of was the 'date'.
"Class dismissed " And when I heard that , I hastened my steps to get to the poolside .
"Excuse me , is Con still inside ? " I asked a guy who just went out from the shower room .
"Coach and Con is still discussing something , I think it's about a competition . You may come in if you like , they're just by the lockers ."
I thanked him for the information and refused of getting inside . I feel like I'm invading their privacy if I would ever do that .
I walked towards the color coded chairs surrounding the pool and sat on one of it .
I looked at the pool and the surroundings , it felt so serene sitting in front of this big place . I could just imagine my boyfriend , Con , swimming back and forth bagging lots of medals .
That would be very great for the both of us . He would actually start doing what he's good at and what he really likes . And I would be beside him standing tall and proud of whatever achievement he'll receive .
I was taken aback momentarily , but recovered quickly when I saw Con standing in front of me .
"There you are Mr. Delcano IV ," I gave him a hearty smile which made his brows furrow .
"Why are you smiling like a freak ? You're creeping me out Carell " He said while sitting beside me .
I took his hand and squeezed it a bit , " look at this place " I pointed the whole surrounding .
"Do you imagine yourself representing your own university or even country and bagging medals ?" I asked him , merely imagining it once again .
" I do " He whispered .
He's fiddling with my fingers with his head on my shoulder .
"but , I couldn't do it without you . So promise me that you'll always be by my side . " he kissed my cheek .
"What's wrong with you ? Of course ! That would be my role . I'd be your number 1 fan . Even if you wouldn't ask me , I'd always be there to cheer for you . Mag taka ka nalang isang araw may fans club kana tapos ako ang presidente ," I playfully said .
"Aside all the bashes and appreciations that you'd receive , at the end of the day , I'll always be by your side to remind, to support you ,and love you with all my might and strength -"
"But you're thin " he shook his head .
"Panira ka rin noh ?" I rolled my eyes .
"I'm serious , let's work on your weight and body . I'd make you fat if I need to . I'll cook your breakfast , lunch , dinner even if you don't like eating , that much . " He seriously said while looking at me .
"We shall now begin our odyssey of feeding you ," he stood up and grabbed both of my wrists to get me up .
"Where are we going?" I asked , panting .
We were running around while he was just pulling me everywhere to follow him .
"It's just somewhere here ." He mumbled looking around .
He stopped running and smiled at me .
"We're here , it's the best arrozcaldo house in town ." His smile even grew bigger .
"Are you serious ? Let's go ! I need to taste it " Ako na mismo ang nag hila sa kanya palapit sa barong-barong .
"Find us some seats and I'll bring our order ." He said.
I obeyed his order and found a table just near the door .
"Here it is "
He placed our order and I swiftly got my bowl and placed some crushed pepper and some calamondin .
Because of moving too swift I burned my tongue which made me do a weird noise .
"Walang nag hahabol sayo " Con said and rolled his eyes .
I just laughed because I know that he just cares that's why he's acting like that . In how many years that we've been with each other , he's not a sweet man but when he speaks , it'll melt your heart .
He knows how to drive you crazy with his words and to make your stomach flutter .
But his simple ways are enough to be called sweet , he just doesn't know that he's already doing something sweet .
There was a time that I really hated him and didn't talk to him for days , and he came to our house just to talk to my mom and dad . And I was pissed because they didn't know about our relationship , and he just stops by our house and to personally inform my parents .
I know my mom always warned me about boys , but when Con came by, to our house my mom forgot of what she had told me of not getting any boyfriend until I graduate college or even until I get a job . And all her belief popped like a bubble when Con showed up .
She would even ask me to invite him often , which was really weird .
Knowing my mom , she isn't really fond of having visitors at home especially her relatives.
She always see them as users .
I never got that close with my mother's side and just my father's , though their family is not that big but I really enjoy their company .
"Eat up Carell , so you'll get in shape fast . " he said finishing his .
We finished three rounds of arrozcaldo each and came home very full .
"I enjoyed this date " I honestly said .
We are now lying here in the park , my head rested on his chest while he's hugging me .
People who see us might judge us or even see us cute , but we don't care as along as we're not doing anything against the rules we're fine , it's not as if naghuhubaran kami dito sa park .
I needed to go home already because I have a curfew . Kahit naman alam nang parents kong may nobyo na ako hindi naman nila ako pababayaang pakalat kalat anong oras nang gabi .
"Let's get you home " he said and helped me get up .
We went back to school kasi hinihintay na siya nang sundo niya at ihahatid niya pa ako saamin .
"Bye, Concon" I said as I removed my seatbelt and got out of the car , but before I could go down he kissed my temple .
Pagka sara na pagka sara ko nang gate ayun naman ang pag kupas ng anino nang sasakyan .
