Juliet and Cinderella (GL) [Book I & II, Completed]

Chapter 49

Juliet's

"Cindy!" I buried my face on her neck and sniffed my girlfriend's scent—well, technically, my soon to be girlfriend, again. Ang sarap sa feeling na ayos na kami. Nandito kami ngayon sa room niya, parehong nakahiga.

She tried to push me but to no avail. I giggled and kissed her neck. I noticed kung paanong natigilan siya sa ginawa ko.

"Juliet, bitaw nga!"

"Why?" I whispered on her ear, sinadya kong lambingan yung boses ko. I just want to tease her. I miss doing this to her.

"Harot-harot mo!" She tried to struggle but I hovered above her and pinned both of her arms. "Bitaw!"

"I missed you." I said as I shamelessly stared on her eyes. She's beautiful, really. I missed this, looking at her this close. Napaiwas siya ng tingin at umirap, I chuckled only to earned a glare from my lovely girl.

"Tigil-tigilan mo ako Juliet, minamanyak mo lang ako, eh."

"Kind of," Tatawa-tawang sagot ko. "Pero na-miss talaga kita. Sagutin mo na kasi ako."

"Asa ka," She smirked. "Next time na. Kaya umalis ka sa ibabaw ko dahil hindi pa naman tayo—" I cut her off with a kiss.

I sighed as I felt her lips on mine. It feels like the first time. Finally. She's going to be mine again. I promise I won't do anything stupid again, sobrang nagsisisi akong nasaktan ko si Cindy. Ayoko na, ayoko nang mawala ulit siya.

"I love you," Masuyong saad ko before kissing her forehead. "And thank you for choosing me."

"Eh, malamang," Slowly, her face became red. "Mahal kita, eh." Tatawa na sana ako sa sobrang cute niya pero pinagtaasan niya ako ng kilay. "At kapag umulit ka pa, nako! Hinding-hindi na kita babalikan!"

"Hindi na ako uulit, promise." Hindi ko na alam ang mangyayari sa akin if ever na hindi siya ang makasama ko.

"At oo nga pala..." She trailed off.

"Hm?"

"I love you, too." She delivered in a very masungit way but she's blushing hard naman. "Oh, huwag kang tatawa! Sapakin kita!"

Lalo tuloy akong natawa. She's so cute!

"Juliet!"

"What?" I laughed. "I can make love with you right now for being so cute."

"Maganda ako, hindi cute!"

I pinched her cheek na ikinasimangot niya. Oh, well, it's true naman. She's beautiful and cute at the same time, she's just too conceited to admit it.

Hmm, speaking of conceited, maybe I should thank Nikki next time kasi nagpaubaya siya. Kaso baka maasar lang siya kapag ginawa ko 'yon. I know she really likes Cindy, I can feel it. At mas humanga ako sa kanya dahil nagawa niyang mag-give up.

"Nikki? Cindy?" Naguguluhang tawag ko. What. Why are they together?

Pagkauwi pa lang kasi ay dito na ako dumiretso sa house ni Cindy to ask her on a date sana. But... They both looked at me. I can't help but feel jealous. Am I too late?

"Hey, Juliet!" Nikki greeted me happily bago inilapag yung mga nakabalot na foods sa mini table. She smiled at me teasingly bago akbayan si Cindy. "Naka-date ko 'tong si Cindy and we really had fun!"

I clenched my fist. Hindi ko alam kung maiinis ba ako or what. But Cindy looks happy, who am I to react like a jealous girlfriend?

"Ouch!" Nikki exclaimed when the woman I love smacked her head. "Bakit?"

"Huwag ka maniwala diyan, Juliet," Mabilis na depensa ni Cindy. "Binasted ko nga 'yan, eh!"

"Aray naman! That hurts, you know?"

Natigilan ako sa narinig. "Is it true?"

"What?" Ngumisi-ngisi sa akin si Nikki. "Yup, basted ako. Wala, eh. Ginayuma mo yata si Cinderella."

"I didn't."

She shrugged her shoulders. "I'm giving up for now but the next time na may gawin ka ulit na mali," Ngumiti siya ng matamis. "Akin na itong girlfriend mo."

I smirked. "I won't let that happen."

Right at that moment, alam ko na ayos na kami ni Nikki.

"Kayong dalawang tukmol, makapag-usap kayo tungkol sa'kin wagas! Nandito pa 'ko!"

"Ah, whatever."

In all honesty, I have this feeling na malaki ang possibility na maging friends kami ng babaeng 'yon.

"Tulala ka?"

I looked at her and smiled. "Wala naman." I kissed her cheek. "Gusto mong kumain?"

"Ayoko, hindi ako gutom. Dito na lang tayo." She declined before pulling me for a hug. Halos nakadagan na tuloy ako sa kanya.

I smiled like kiddo, kinikilig ako, eh. "Gusto mo lang ako masolo, eh. Right, huh, love?"

"K-kapal mo, 'oy! Asado ka masyado!"

"Yiiee..." Tinusuk-tusok ko siya sa tagiliran pero nangiwi ako nang kurutin niya ako. "O-ouch! It hurts, you know."

"Oh, edi maganda." Pagtataray niya. "Napaka kasi."

"Napakaganda?"

"Ewan ko sa'yo."

Natahimik kami saglit. Pero hindi naman awkward. I feel like we're really back to normal. Just like the old times.

"Cindy?" I called.

"Ow?"

I looked at her and intertwined our fingers. Nasa ibabaw pa rin niya ako kaya pinagpalit ko yung position namin. Iniyakap ko sa waist niya ang isang kamay ko.

"Bakit, Juliet?" She smiled and I sighed at the sight. She's beautiful.

"I love you so much and I'm sorry for hurting you before." I said, "I know I'm an idiot."

"Tapos na 'yon." Baliwalang saad niya as she caressed my shoulder gently, hanggang sa collarbone ko. "Alam ko namang pinagsisihan mo na 'yon. At tiwala naman akong hindi ka na uulit."

I felt my eyes sting. No, ayokong umiyak. "You're too much for me, you know that?" I kissed her forehead, down to her nose. "You're one of a kind."

"Siyempre," May halong pagmamayabang na sabi niya. "Hindi ka na makakahanap ng ganito kagandang babae, aba, one of a kind talaga ako."

"And conceited, as always." I teased.

"At least totoo. Tse!"

"Can I kiss you?" I asked instead.

She blushed and pinched my cheek. "Kanina ka pa nga halik ng halik tapos ngayon ka lang magpapaalam?" Tumaas ang isang kilay niya. "Nakakaloka ka!"

I giggled and grabbed her nape. I kissed her slowly. She gripped my shoulder hard when I lick her lower lip, teasing her. "Can I?"

Mas namula siya. Pero taray niya pa ring tumingin. I took her reaction as a yes so I kissed her again. But this time, I set aside my inhibition. I quickly tasted her mouth and danced with her tongue. I heard her moan that made me smile.

Ramdam na ramdam ko rin ang mabilis na pintig ng puso namin. This is heaven. That's for sure.

Our lips parted after a few minutes. Parehas kaming malalim ang paghinga but there's a smile painted on our lips.

"Mahal na mahal kita, Juliet."
