february 2019
ah, february 5. the day of my birthday. and it's today! wow, i can't believe seventeen years have past since my mum inteoduce me to this world. i'm, also, near to legality wooh!
i did my morning routine with a positive vibe. thank goodness my birthday is a weekend – saturday –, kasi naman it's always schooldays so my wallet gets empty 'cause i treat my friends lunch or dinner. but this year, i invited some of my friends on a party tonight. it's surely gonna be fun.
"aba, our baby girl woke up early today ha." harry teases and i chuckle, "happy birthday, sis. you're the dancing queen today," he says and hug me.
(if you don't know what i mean on the dancing queen oh my god f.o. na sistur)
"thank you, bro bro. love you," i tiptoed to kiss him on the cheek. i sit down and he placed down my breakfast, "looks like kuys isn't awake yet," i mention before digging in.
"he stayed up all night just to greet you exactly at 12 midnight." he infroms me and i almost choked on my breakfast, "he did what?" i drink 1/4 of my water and harry says, "check your iMessage."
i opened my phone and there are tons of messages from my family and friends from local and overseas. i checked my messages and find for luke's text message, once i found it, i read it silently while eating.
"he's the sweetest," i shed a tear from my eye and harry smiles. while scrolling through the messages, a pair of arms wraps around my neck. "happy birthday to my favourite sister!" luke kissed my cheek before sitting beside me.
"i'm your only sister, lucas," i point out and they laughed. "anyway, thank you for the message. i cried, by the way." i tell gim and he grins. "you're welcome. oh, you're going to have a party tonight, diba?"
i just nodded because i'm still chewing my food. "is benj invited?" harry asks and i stop for a second. benjamin; i forgot to invite him! screw you, eva.
"of course! why would i forget my boyfriend on my birthday party?"
------
8:00 pm. the party started. i only invited around 35 people so the house isn't overcrowded and i son't want to clean much mess after. it's just full of alcohol, beerpong, and music the whole night.
the boys played with my brothers at out basketball court outside and the others played video games and stuff. us, girls, had a karaoke night inside my room. of course, we sang the iconic 'Dancing Queen'. your seventeenth birthday wouldn't be complete without this.
now it's around 12:30 in the midnight and it's just me and my barkada. i haven't seen benjamin the whole night, did he came or not? i texted him this morning to come at my party, eh. i even told him we should go skinny dipping in our pool.
since i can't keep my shit low, i asked oliver, "hey oli, did benj came tonight? i haven't seen him the whole night," i pouted and he points up to our veranda, "he told us that you invited him to go skinny dipping tonight that's why he came. didn't he replied to your text?"
i shake my head, "well, thanks for telling me. i'll be back later," i pat his shoulder before standing up and excuse myself. "don't do sex on the pool!" meray shouts and i glare at him, showing him my middle finger nefore rushing to our veranda.
i quickly spotted him there; leaning by the gutter and the light from the fairy lights shone above him.
i didn't knew that time i'm having real feeligs for my fake boyfriend.
i walk closed to him and i dip my feet in the pool, "you didn't show yourself to me earlier," i tell him then he glances at me amd laughed. "you're so busy with your guests earlier so i didn't mind to approach you." he explains and i just shrugged.
"wanna join me?" he offers and i nod, i walk to the table enar the pool to undress before dipping my body to the cold water of our swimming pool. "oof!" i quickly hugged benjamin when i realized the pool is too deep for me.
"our position is so awkward." i heard him say so i look up on him, i laugh. "you're blushing!" i point at his cheek and he roll his eyes, "obviously because your boobs are touching my bare body and that is really awakrd."
i flushed in embarassment, "oh." i distance my body from him but i didn't let go of him. i migut drown no! i don't want to die yet i still have plans in my lfie.
he swims to the edge of the pool where we're at the edge of the veranda. i let go of him and hold on the gutter instead, "you're so serious tonight." i tell him when i observed him.
"i'm serious on all of things i do,"
"except our relationship." i correct him and he looked at me, i raise my brow, "what? what i said is true naman, ah." i defensed and he looked away. haha, 1-0!
we were silent for a few minutes until i broke the silence, "you don't have a gift for me. i'm hurt ah," he stares at me like what i said is wrong. i frown, "you don't have one naman talaga."
"i do have one."
"where is it?"
he faces me then pulls me close to him. fuck i can feel his member touching my thighs, making me blush. ano na benjamin????
he stares at me, then down to my lips. i wrap my arms around his neck as he comes closer until i felt his lips on mine. his lips are soft and he kiss very gently, like i'm a fragile vase and he's holding me with care.
i kissed back, devouring and enjoying every second we have right now. at least, for a few minutes i felt that he loves me. but it doesn't change the fact that i still don't have a place in his heart.
