AshMatt Fan Fiction
What happens when the superstar meets the coldest, most arrogant bodyguard in the country?
What will happen when the best in his field ends up babysitting a Popstar?
Will they be compatible or will they get on each others nerves...
By the time they finished eating both were extremely relaxed with one another.
It was past nine o'clock when suddenly Sarah's mobile phone rang.
"Sino kaya ito, unknown number, Hello?"
"Hi, Sarah."
"Sino 'to?" She asked blankly.
"Why, Sarah, it's me who heart you. Remember? I see you are hanging out there, at your boyfriend's place."
A chill gripped Sarah and she stared out side, swallowing. "Paano mo nakuha ang number ko?"
"Hindi mo na kailangan malaman pa. Naisip ko baka gusto mong magbigay ng isang maliit na regalo. After all, ang mga newspapers at magazines ay naghahanap ng mga tao upang magbigay sa kanila ng isang magadang kwento tungkol sa iyo. You're a hot item right now. Naisip ko you might like to do a deal."
Sarah froze.
She glanced at Matteo moving around the kitchen area, discreetly staying away while she took the call.
This couldn't be happening. What would he say if he found out who was ringing her?
"Well?"
"Hindi po ako maaaring makipag-usap sa ngayon," she muttered nervously, playing for time.
She had to think. She had to decide what to do.
Maybe talk with Boss Vic and see if he had a solution to the problem.
Blackmail.
She never would have believed it was happening.
"Okay. You have twenty-four hours to make up your mind, Sarah. After that all bets are off." He hung up.
Sarah sat motionless. Her hand trembling.
What was she to do?
Once he realized she'd hung up, Matteo stood in front of her.
"Nothing important, I hope?" he said, and raised a questioning brow.

"Uh, wala. Wala, talaga. Lamang....." She cut off, unable to lie.
Yet unable to tell the truth.
How could she explain that she was being blackmailed by a reporter who, by some mysterious means, had found out her whereabouts?
She wanted to scream in frustration. She would have done anything to be able to pour out her troubles to Matteo, to tell him the truth and be done with it.
But that was impossible. He must never know how she'd got into trouble.
She needs to protect his privacy.
He'd been so kind and understanding. He's just a simple man whose main livelihood is driving.
But what if he knew this?
He would be scandalized by her?
The thought made her shiver.
"Sigurado ka okay ka lang?" he enquired. Coming to sit next to her and slipping his arm about her.
"Oo.....oo, okay lang ako," she lied, swallowing.
"Sweetheart, don't hesitate to tell me anything or everything. Baka makatulong ako." Matteo said, letting his fingers thread through her hair.
Sarah knew that there was no future with him.
Somehow, it didn't matter.
What she needed now was to be in his arms. To feel him hold her.
Forget the nightmare taking place in her public life and give way to her happiness.
Matteo held her close, kissed her hair and let his arms enfold her.
Sarah gloried in the embrace. Wished it could go on forever.
