My Knight In Shining Armour (On-hold)

Chapter 7

  Nabitiwan ni Nico ang hawak na kutsara at tinidor upon hearing what Laura just said.
"So..you already got a boyfriend huh? Saad niya dito.

Nico was so excited when he sees Laura again after 3 years hindi niya akalaing magkikita sila ulit. He'd been so busy all those years sa training sa SAF thats the reason why he never gotten a chance to look for her, but even though matagal na hindi sila nagkita nito he still finds time to have a sneak peek to her by watching the news where she was one of the field reporter on their local t.v network. The thoughts of Laura keeps on haunting him all those years and he regretted the time he wasted to look for her and even tell her how he felt for her and yes he actually had a huge crush on her and it's all started the very first time they've met. Laura was certainly gorgeous yung tipo ng babaeng ang sarap lang pagmasdan maghapon because she got this angelic face may dimple din itong maliit sa kanang pisngi na pag ngumiti ay kitang kita. She was a body beauty too not so tall, he thinks nasa 5'5 ang height nito,noon mahaba ang buhok nito but now nasa shoulder length na lang that gives her a mature look. And damn this girl is oozing with sex appeal and the more she looked at her the more she's become attractive. He gathered all his guts and tell her that she wanted to see her again.

"I guess I was late. I thought you were still single. Walang gatol niyang turan dito and looking straight into her eyes.

"W-wait.. you what?
Laura asked Nico, she was confused on what he was saying

"Oh.. I mean I thought you haven't had a boyfriend yet... biglang bawi nito sa nasabi kanina.
Napakunot noo naman si Laura dito ano bang ibig nitong sabihin sa sinabi nitong he was late. Oh gosh ayaw niyang maniwalang nagkagusto ito sa kanya before. And so she just shrugged her shoulders and continued eating.

After ng dinner hinatid siya ni Nico sa kanilang staff house.
"Are you happy with him? Biglang tanong nito ng makahinto ang sasakyan nito sa tapat ng bahay.
"Huh.. why do you ask, of course I am Marco loves me so much. She answered but still nagtataka siya sa mga binibitawan nitong salita.

Tumango si Nico and pinagbuksan pa siya nito ng pinto ng sasakyan.
"Can I see you again Laura? Nico asked her again. Napamaang siya dito bakit pa ba? Ano bang meron sa isip isip niya.
"Well I guess wala naman tayong rason para mag meet ulit, so why are you wasting your time on me.? Sagot na patanong niya dito.
"Well wala namang masama right I just want us to become friends thats it.. natatawa pa nitong saad.
"Really? Tugon niya
"Yes, so I think pwede ka nang pumasok sa loob I will watch you go inside before I go. Sabi nitong hinatid pa siya sa may gate ng bahay. Kinilig siya sa concern gesture nito at nung nasa may pinto na siya she waved him goodbye, sumaludo naman ito sa kanya at umalis na.

The day after Laura was preparing herself para pumasok ng biglang magring ang kanyang phone and when she looked at it hindi ito nakaregister sa kanyang phone so she just ignored it but unfortunately wala itong balak tumigil and so she just answered it.
"Yes hello. Saad niya.
"Hey gorgeous,good morning. Bati ng sa kabilang linya. Napakunot noo siya.
"Who's this? She asked
"This is Nico, I just want to greet you good morning. Saad nito, pano naman kaya nito nakuha ang number niya.
" Where did you get my number? Tanong niya dito.
"I get it from your boss. Sagot nito sa kanya?
"Ha? Gulat niyang saad.
"Look Laura I am the one to ask him to give me your number, I just wanted us to reconnect again you know wala namang masama right? Saad nito a matter of factly pa.
"Yes of course theres nothing wrong but why you suddenly  wants us to reconnect? samantalang before I never heard from you since the day na magkahiwalay tayo... di na napigilang bulalas niya dito.
"I was too busy with my trainings then thats why I haven't got the chance to contact you.. He explained. Bigla iniba niya ang usapan baka kung san pa kasi mapunta ang topic nila.
"Look kailangan ko ng pumasok I will be late. Saad niya at nagpaalam na dito.

Pauwi na siya ng gabing yun ng magulat siya bigla na lang kasing may humila sa kamay niya and to her shocked it was Nico, naamoy pa niya mula sa hininga nito ang alak,so he was drunk at medyo namumungay pa ang mata nito.
"Hey, baby how are you? Nakangisi nitong saad. Iwinaksi niya ang kamay nitong nakahawak sa kanya.
"What the hell you think you're doing? Mataray na tugon niya dito.
"Ohhh.. damn I just couldn't take you off my head since the day we first met. And I was devastated when you told me you already had a boyfriend. Malungkot ang mga mata nitong nakatingin sa kanya.
Hindi niya alam kung anong mararamdaman niya that was just a fucking statement from him.
"I don't know what your saying Nico. But please just stay away from me. You see im already committed. Mahinahon niyang saad dito.
"I can't babe.. Im sorry but I already made up my mind to have you whatever it takes. Besides your not married yet, so may pag asa pa. Tugon nito na bahagya pang lumapit sa kanya. Napaurong tuloy siya pero lalo naman siya nitong kinorner until mapasandig siya sa wall ng parking area nila.
Nico was too close almost touching her lips by his. Titig na titig ito sa kanya and damn her heart just couldn't stop beating fast and loud. Napapikit na lang siya when she felt his lips against hers goddamn he was kissing her and she had to fight back but heck she doesn't had the energy to do so kasi para na siyang nililipad sa sobrang hindi niya maipaliwanag na sensasyon sa pagkakadikit nila at parang namanhid na din ang mga kamay niya.
Nico's lips was too hot at pilit nito siyang tinutukso to respond,
it wasnt her first kiss coz before nakipaghalikan na siya sa mga naging ex boyfriend niya but this one is different ang lakas ng kuryente nito at sa di inaasahan kusa na lang siyang nagresponse sa mga halik nito. It was passionate  kiss though and she was now kissing him back habang nakapikit at ang mga kamay niya ay kusa na lang napayakap sa leeg nito habang ang mga kamay naman nito ay nakayakap na sa baywang niya. They were kissing intensely na para bang sabik na sabik sila sa isat isa , like they can't get enough with each other. Nico was a good kisser and so para na siyang hibang hindi na niya ma control ang sarili.
Nagulat na lang sila at biglang napabitaw sa isat isa nung makarinig sila ng busina ng sasakyan.

Napapahiya pa siya na biglang inayos ang sarili she couldn't look at him straight. Akma na siyang aalis ng pigilan nito ang braso niya.
"I will take you home. Saad nito at hinila na siya papunta sa kotse nito. And while on the car wala silang imikan nito. Hanngang makarating sa staff house, dali dali naman siyang bumaba pero hinabol siya nito at hinila sa kamay napasubsob tuloy siya sa dibdib nito at ayun na naman ang puso niyang maingay.
"Good night Laura.. saad nito and let her go.
