You Found Me (Discontinued)

VIII

"Hey debutant!" Masayang bati ko kay Aisne ng makarating ako sa Garden of Zelda, this is a private property of Zelda Group, company nila Aisne.

"Lesly! Akala ko hindi ka na makakarating!" Sabi niya at niyakap ako.

"This guy took forever para sunduin ako." Sabi ko at tinuro si Ejiro na nasa likod ko. We came here together since he is 'technically' my date.

"Ohh so alam na pala ni newbie ang bahay mo? He's fast." Sagot niya at niyakap din kay Ejiro pagkatapos ay kumapit siya sa akin.

"Let's enjoy this night, let's party like this is our last day together." Ngumiti si Aisne sa akin at hinila kami papunta sa dance floor. Weird, she doesn't like to dance.

"Is something wrong?" She looked at me weirdly.

"You're just hearing things." Sagot at nag-umpisa ng sumayaw sa dance floor, wala pa ang mga matatanda dito na magiging dahilan para maging boring ang party, she's right might as well enjoy this party, I will spend my time eating food.

"Uhm you wanna dance?" Nabalik ang tingin ko kay Ejiro.

"Are you nervous?" Natatawang tanong ko sa kanya.

"Well you didn't say anything when you saw me so I think-do I look bad?" Napataas ang kilay ko sa kanya. He's wearing a customized Brioni suit but he's still skeptical about his looks because I didn't said anything?

"You look good. Too good for me." Sagot ko sa kanya, napakagat siya ng labi and a blush formed in his cheeks.

"Are you-?"

"Yes, yes I am. Dancing sucks, let's just eat." Nagmadali siyang tumalikod sa akin at pumunta sa table na puro pagkain. Tinanaw ko siya mula sa kintatayuan ko, I admit he can really make me smile.

"So you prefer blushing guys." Nawala ang ngiti ko ng marinig ko si Xavier na nagsalita, I've been doing good at hiding from him sa school but I guess things like this can't be helped. Hinarap ko siya at nginitian.

"Actually I do, gusto ko yung bago. Tapos na ako sa mga lalaking katulad mo." His smirk faded the same time my smile widen.

"What? Your jealous?" Sinusubukan ko lang ang pasensiya niya and I didn't expect him to answer, but he did. He leaned closer to me, our forehead are touching.

"Indeed, I'm jealous of that guy, it used to be me. I'm jealous, I'm mad, I'm worried because I love you and I don't want to lose you." His vaguely familiar voice seems so rich and confident.

  But as I look deep into his eyes, now that I'm this close to him I noticed his eyes were the hues of the forest surrounded with dark moss. The earthly green eyes that revives the grass after a cruel, unforgiving winter. I've never seen such eyes that holds danger and beauty all at once.

"Go. Away." He smirked at me.

"No, letting you go was the hardest thing I did-"

"You're doing this again. You of all people should know what I'm feeling right now." My heart is pounding so fast.

"Lesly, are you going?" Napunta ang atensyon naming dalawa kay Ejiro. Xavier's lips drew back in a snarl, his eyes narrowed towards Ejiro.

"She's with me, if you want attention go bother someone else." He hissed then circled his hands at my hips. Napunta ang mata ni Ejiro sa kamay ni Xavier na nakahawak sa bewang ko.

"I don't know who you are and what you are in her life but I'm telling to fuck off because this night doesn't belong to you. Not now." Sagot ni Eji and he offered his hands to me. Napunta ang atensyon nilang dalawa sa akin.
