Loving You Is Hurting Me

III

Anya

I haven't seen Sam early today, maybe he has decided to stay clear away from me after all. I'm glad. I started preparing food for our swimming later today. Jigs said that the rest of our friends might come along. I prepared sandwiches and even managed to cook spaghetti and fries. Thanks to Manang Lydia who bought the groceries yesterday. I also asked her to prepare banana que because i missed it so much.  

Darla arrived first and i jumped so much because she brought with her a big jar of peanut butter which her mom gave me. Wow! It's sinfully yummy. "Will you stop that Anya!" Darla said while laughing at me. "Tss, you'r such a kid sometimes." She said. "Where's Jigs?" I asked her. "He's waiting for John and Meg, i think they are bringing some drinks with them." Darla said. We started heading out to the beach. I went back to get the beach umbrellas and bumped into Sam. "You're having a party?" He asked, arms crossed on his bare chest. I could see sweat  trickling down on his abs. Geez! I looked directly on and avoided looking up at him. He is a good six inches taller than me. "Yah?! So?" I replied flatly. "Nothing. Don't drink too much." He said and tap on my nose. I looked up at him and he was staring down at me and grinning. For a house-boy or hired hired-hand whatever, he awfully had this perfectly even white teeth. Smooth unblemished tan skin and mesmerizing eyes. Urgh! What am i doing?! "Excuse me." I looked down and walked away. I could feel myself blushing. 

Sam

I could hear the faint music from way up to my room. I moved the curtains a little to check the group of people hanging out at the beach. I couldn't see clearly so i went to one of my drawers and searched for the binoculars stashed somewhere. Once i found it, i hurriedly went back to my position on the window and peeked through the binoculars. Where's Anya? I mumbled. Oh there she is. She's wearing this denim shorts over a white two-piece suit. She's wearing that ball cap she wore yesterday her hair hang just above her waist. She's really cute. Suddenly she turned towards me! Or rather the house. For a second there, i thought she saw me. But that's impossible. It's almost dark now and I haven't turned on the lights except at the kitchen area.  What's she doing? i saw her taking off her shorts and cap and started running towards the water. The other two girls followed. Ahhhhh, why does she have to take those off? And why is she wearing those revealing outfits anyway? In fairness to her, she do have nice curves. I'm sure all those guys are drooling now. I threw my binoculars at the bed. I went downstairs and prepared a sandwich for my dinner. I need to have a nice long drink.

Anya

I am pretty sure that I saw somebody standing behind those windows. Maybe the son of the owner of the house.  I took a few laps and went out of the water. "Hey Anya! Where are you going? You're done?" Meg said. "Yeah." I just replied. I went to one of the chairs where i placed my towel and put my shorts back on. "So where is he?" John asked. "Where's who?" I asked him back. "The guy who lives there." He said while pouring himself a drink. "I don't know, all i saw is some guy who takes care of the house."I said. "Hmmm must be too broken hearted. Jigs did you see that car he was driving? A sports car! When can i ever have one? Not likely i guess." John said shaking his head. "He rarely goes out. maybe only to buy a few things. But i never really saw him." Jigs said. "Guys leave the guy alone, maybe he's nursing his heart that's why he want to be alone and he doesnt need us to pester him, okay?" I said, Meg and Darla came up behind me. "Let's play spin the bottle!" Meg said. "Okay!" John said enthusiastically. We gather together in a circle, Meg started spinning the bottle. It pointed at Jigs. "Truth or dare!" We all said in unison. "Truth." Jigs simply said. "Okay, do you have a girlfriend now?" Meg is really asking this question for her to know personally because she liked Jigs since we were kids and not once did Jigs admit or hinted that he return the same feelings. "None." Jigs said. "Really?!" Meg exclaimed before she can stop herself. We all laughed. She spins the bottle again and pointed right at her. "Truth or dare!" We all said. "Dare." She said obviously nervous. "I dare you to kiss Jigs." John said. We all grew quiet. I'm not sure Meg will dare to kiss Jigs. She slowly crawled towards Jigs who is seated beside me. She started to lean on him. Uh-oh i guess she's doing it. Before we knew it, she kissed him smack on the lips like three seconds and stopped. Jigs pulled her head back at him and kissed her. We were shocked! Good thing John laughed and punched Jigs lightly on his arm. "Hey you two..what's goin on?"Darla asked. "It's just a dare." Jigs answered and shrugged. John started spinning the bottle. It pointed right at me. "Truth or dare!" We all said. "Truth." I smiled at them, i wouldn't dare choose dare! "You got a boyfriend?" Darla asked. "NBSB!" I told them, honestly. "Really?!?" This time Darla said, obviously surprised. "Why?" She asked. "I don't  know." I said truthfully. "Hmmm.."Was all she said.

Sam

No boyfriend since birth? Who is she kidding? After having a sandwich and drank a bottle of beer. I went out using the front door and crept behind the trees just near enough to hear their conversation. Suddenly my phone vibrated. I pulled it out from my pocket. I hurriedly walked away  and answered the phone. "What do you want?" I asked. "Sam, where are you? I missed you." Karen said. "It's enough, okay? I don't want to see you. Stop calling me." I said and ended the call. Sometimes she can really be annoying. Why can't she moved on? I mean she had, way before she realized it. But to another guy. I started back to the house but then i heard Anya's voice getting near. I snuck behind the hedge. "C'mon you guys, let's call it a night before you all get too drunk to drive." I heard Anya said. They were walking back to the house now. "I bet someone's not getting any sleep tonight."The tall and lean guy said. "Goodnight Anya! See you!" Said the curly haired girl beside Anya. "Goodnight! Drive safely Jigs okay?" Anya said and wave at them. When her friends were gone, "alright, out!" I heard Anya said. What does she mean? "I know you're there Sam, come out!" She said rather loudly. I slowly went out.

Anya

I saw him snuck behind the hedge. Is he stalking? My gosh! The nerve! "What are you doing?" I asked him angrily. "I was just walking around when you all came." He said, matter of factly. He was looking around except at me. Hands tucked in his pockets. "Don't you have anything better to do? Why do you always show up at the least opportune time?" I said glaring at him. "Is it.. my.. fault ..that you... always.... show... up... at the least.....opportune ...time?" He said so slowly while walking towards me. I started to walk back from him until i could feel a wall behind me. He leaned on me like he was about to kiss me. I shut my eyes and wanted to dissolve if possible. I could feel his breath on my cheeks. I peeked through one eye and saw him leaning on my left ear. "You can pick up your things now." He whispered and walked away. I swear i heard him chuckle. I open my eyes and realized that the things that i were holding awhile ago were now at my feet. I guess i have let go of them without realizing when he started backing me up against the wall. Arrgh Anya! You're such an idiot! If i could kick myself, i would have now.
