Mendoza x Faulkerson: One Shots

Four

Transparency

They got mobbed, as usual. Fans are everywhere and though one of Maine's fans club helped to keep them safe, Alden can't help but to be anxious, worried that Maine would get hurt if he can't get her way from the crowd. Smiling at the phones and cameras, Maine sensed his anxiousness at the same time her van came. "Mauuna na 'ko.", she said, then kissed Alden on his cheek. It's her way of saying she's okay, and her sweet gesture calm him a bit. He helped her get into her car, and once Maine is settled, he closed the door and went to his own car. Easing up on his seat, he receive a text message from Maine.

He felt relieved by reading this, all his anxiousness slipped away. And there's another message...

He sighs, he knows this. He's too transparent, they both are. And honestly, a part of him wished he scare them away but obviously, that didn't happen.

Reading this, Maine shakes her head. She knew he's worried, always is. He's a worrywart when it comes to her. And she's worried too, because worried Alden means an anxious Alden, and an anxious Alden is a scary Alden. She thinks that the crowd earlier will see how scary he is when they check the photos they have taken. Her next reply will serve as, hopefully, a reassuring and a diversion one.

"Diversion", he thought. But he smiled, because his girl knew him well. And he knew her well too that he knows that she knew that he's still worried not unless she's home safe. He bet she knew what would be his next message.

"Sabi na eh.", Maine chuckled. She knew he'll said or text it. The day never passed without her hearing or reading that same message. And his next message is something that she never get tired of hearing or reading, ever.

And just like that, he's happy again. All because of Maine. Always.
