Chapter Six

The sunlight creeping from the balcony slowly woke Karylle. But she didn't want to open her eyes just yet. She turned and buried her head on what she thought was a pillow until she felt something warm around her. Karylle was too lazy to open her eyes so she just ignored it. Besides, it felt good.

Then she felt something moved near her thighs.

Her eyes opened and that was when she realized that her head was not on the pillow but on Vice's neck. She would have gotten up right away but the scent of his cologne made her not want to get up. She sniffed and smiled, squeezing her head closer to his neck.

She realized that the warm feeling around her was his arm. It was wrapped around her while her head was buried on his neck and his chin rested on top of her head. It felt good. It felt right until she felt another movement and it was coming from her thighs.

Her eyes opened wide at the most absurd thought she just had and when she looked under the covers to check, it only confirmed her thought. She screamed and pushed Vice off the bed.

"Aray ko! Yung likod ko!" Vice yelped in pain, his back landed on the floor.

Vice stood up, looking grumpy. Yung handa na makipag-away kahit si Karylle pa yun. But Karylle had her eyes covered again so it made him look at himself. His face turned tomato red as he covered his lower body with both his hands.

Then there was a knock on the door, causing both to look at the door.

"Karylle? Dom? Is everything okay in there?"

"Si Mama!" she whispered a little loud. She hurriedly called Vice back to bed and they both wrapped themselves under the blanket.

"Your spaghetti top is visible, Vice." she reminded him.

Another knock on the door.

"Karylle? Dom?"

"Yes! Everything's fine, Ma! Just wait a sec!" she yelled then turned to Vice.

Vice covered himself under the blanket while Karylle moved closer to him and then laid her head on his shoulder.

"Okay, you can come in now!" Karylle yelled.

The door opened and Karylle's head was awkwardly laying on his shoulder. Vice didn't know where to put his arm so he placed it on top of her head. This was not what they practiced last night. Her mom and Zia stood outside the door.

"Good morning, lovebirds." Zia wiggled her brows.

"Morning." Vice and Karylle said in unison.

"Is everything okay? Parang may narinig akong nahulog." Mrs. Z asked.

"Ma, baka naman nag lo-lovey dovey lang silang—"

"Zia!" Karylle cut her sister off and gave her a disgusted look.

"Ako po yung nahulog, Tita. Ang likot po kasi matulog nitong anak nyo, tinulak ako." Vice admitted. It wasn't entirely a lie.

"Naku, malikot talaga matulog yan si Ate. Some things just don't change." Zia teased.

"Breakfast is ready, mag ayos na kayo at sumunod na lang kayo sa baba." Mrs. Z informed the couple.

"Bye, lovebirds!" Zia teased them once again before following her mom out of the room.

Once the door shut, Karylle lifted her head from his shoulder and exhaled in relief.

"That was close." she said.
