The Ruthless Game

Chapter 39

Chapter 39: "And we all have that one person, whether it's a month from now and ten years from now, we'd go back to. Cause at the end of the day they're the one who's arms always felt the most like home."

The moment I let go of my pain and fears and embraced our love for each other, I knew that I was finally where I should be. It's funny how I spent so much time running away from him only to realize that at the end of the day it would always be him because he's my home. 

He cupped my face. "Love, are you sure?" 

I could see uncertainty in his eyes but there was hope, as well. There was also fear. Parang may pumiga sa puso ko sa nakikita ko sa mga mata niya. I smiled softly at him and touched his hand on my face. 

"Yes, lo-"

He crushed his lips against mine. It was full of longing and passion that it brought tears to my eyes. He made me wrap my legs around his waist and carried me inside the house without breaking the kiss. 

With just one touch, the fire consumed my whole being. Tears slid down my cheeks as we finally became one again. I held onto him tightly as he brought me to our personal haven. 

It was already past 4 in the morning. I should be tired and sleepy after being made love to so many times and thoroughly, and yet we were still wide awake staring at each other. My eyes closed as his hand caressed my cheek softly.

"Having you back in my life is like a dream come true."

"Ang ganda ko naman," biro ko sa kanya.

"You are, love. You remain the most beautiful in my eyes." Napipilan ako. He took a deep breath. "I thought a friend was all I could ever be to you, and even that, I was willing to grab as long as I could talk to you. See you. Be with you."

Despite the lump in my throat, I smirked. "Mahal na mahal mo talaga ako no?"

A small smile formed on his lips. "So much."

And I saw it in his eyes; love. I just lost it and cried which caught him by surprise. Nakalabing mahina ko siyang pinalo sa dibdib.

"Nakakainis ka! Pinagod mo na nga ako tapos pinapaiyak mo pa ako."

Ngumiti siya ng may tunog at Niyakap ako. "I love you."

Sumiksik ako sa dibdib niya. "Mahal na mahal din kita."

The next few days were spent with Dylan. Our friends were already teasing us for being inseparable. Everyday, he would take me to work and pick me up, as well. Napalabi ako ng makitang tulog pa rin siya. 

"Love, wake up."

Bahagya ko ng niyugyog ang balikat niya. After we made love, he fell asleep. He probably got tired. Ang kulit kasi. I told him one was enough, but he wouldn't stop. At dahil marupok naman ako ay hindi ako makatanggi. 

Mapupungay ang mga matang umunan siya sa kandungan ko at iniyakap ang mga braso sa beywang ko. Nakangiting isinuklay ko ang mga daliri sa buhok niya. 

"Love, take a shower na."

"Let's just stay home and cuddle."

"You told GP we'd watch their game. Semis pa naman ngayon."

"I can just text him and apologize. I just wanna cuddle with you some more."

Napangiti ako ng may tunog. "Pwede naman na pag-uwi na lang diba? Besides, we always cuddle."
