"Y-you, w-what?" I leaned away from him, realizing what he just said.
Saka lang bumalik ang aking huwisyo nang narinig ko ang sinabi niya. Hindi pa naman ako bingi, diba?
My body may be innocent but my mind is not. Kaya alam na alam ko ang ibig niyang sabihin sa mga salita niyang 'yon.
Saka ko lang din naalala ang posisyon naming dalawa. Holy shit! I'm straddling his lap! I'm fucking straddling his goddamn lap!
Dali-dali akong kumilos para bumalik sa shotgun pero mahigpit niyang hinawakan ang beywang ko at ipinirmi ako sa kandungan niya.
"Uh uh." Iling niya, "Not so fast, little island."
"Bitaw, Arch. Uupo ako." Sinubukan kong tanggalin ang mga kamay niya pero mas hinigpitan niya pa ang kapit nito.
"Naka-upo ka naman, ah." I glared at him when he smirked at me. Ginawa pa akong aliwan nitong gagong 'to.
Why did you give in again, Isla? Diba matatag na ang desisyon mong ayaw mo nito? Eh, bakit ka bumigay?
"I will sit properly on the shotgun, Arch." Kailangan kong umalis sa kandungan niya dahil alam kong kapag nagtagal ako, mabibihag niya na naman ako at hindi na naman ako makapag-isip ng maayos.
"You're perfectly comfortable here." Inusog niya ako para tumapat ang umbok niya sa pagitan ng mga hita ko.
Napapikit ako nang naramdaman ko na naman ang katigasan nito. I can't explain such foreign feeling, but I don't hate it as much as how I thought I would before.
"You can't deny that you want this too." And I'm so fucked up to admit that he's right.
Sino bang niloloko mo, Isla?
Oo, nung una, desidido na ako sa desisyon ko, dahil may paninindigan ako bilang babae. I still believe that a woman should only give her all to the man she will end up with forever, but the moment he kissed me, it shattered all my logical and rational thoughts and my sanity along with it.
Now that he voiced it out, I don't think I can deny that I want to feel more of what he made me feel yesterday. I can't deny it any longer, even if I wanted to, even if I should.
It scares me that he knew what I want and what I needed, and it terrifies me that I want him to keep knowing all about it.
Archibald Miller has put me under his spell without me even knowing. And I don't think there's a counterspell strong enough to break his curse.
"Why are you doing this?" That came out as a whisper because he moved his bulge along my slit again. Even with the cloth in between, I could still feel it vividly, and the sensation is driving me crazy.
He pushed my head closer to his and whispered, "Because I want you." He sealed that with a kiss and I closed my eyes as I obliged like a servant commanded by his master.
Siya ang unang bumitaw sa halik at ipinagdikit ang mga noo naming dalawa. When I opened my eyes, he was staring at me intently, like he was not scared of showing me all of his emotions right this moment, the total opposite of how I first met him.
"The moment I first saw you, you immediately piqued my interest and I wanted to know you for that." He suddenly stated while his eyes we're still locked with mine, "So, when your friends suddenly dwelled deeper in the idea of that 18 stuff, I felt rage for some reason and I decided to take action."
"You forced that dare just to get to know me, just because you got angry? Bullshit, Arch, there are other different ways to get to know a person, and your anger does not sum up why all of this is happening right now." If he wanted to know me so badly, he could've just asked to be my friend. That would've been a good start. At kung galit man siya sa gabing 'yun, para saan naman? What made him so angry that he had to meddle with our girl talk and manipulate me into accepting his dare?
