"So you really liked me, huh?"
I caressed Heath's arms that was wrapped around me. After having dinner outside, we want back to my house and just decided to stay together for the night since we were both tired.
The television was on and a movie was playing yet we were busy talking to each about anything comfortable for the two of us. I couldn't stop teasing about what he has done for me before.
I felt Heath nodded and chuckled at my question. "You can't get over it, huh?"
I bit my lip and shook my head playfully. Dumapa ako sa kama para mas lalo ko siyang makita. I played with his hair as I take a closer look at his face. Suddenly, I felt a pinch of pain in my heart literally. To save face, I smiled widely.
"I don't think I will get over it. This feels like a dream," I almost whispered.
He tucked my lose hair behind my ear and pinch my nose gently which made me frown.
"This is my dream," he answered.
I chuckled. "What? You being here?" My eyebrows shot up.
"Me being with you."
Narinig ko na naman ang tibok ng puso ko. And it was because of him again. I pursed my lips and hugged him. I smiled sweetly as he hugged me tighter. We stayed like that until we both fell asleep. This is the best way to end the day.
It was nearly morning when I saw a shadow figure inside my room. I tried to wake Heath up but I couldn't move. I felt my breathing getting ragged when the figure was walking towards us. I wanted to scream so bad but I couldn't talk or move a muscle at all. It's like I was paralyzed. Tears started to build up in my eyes because I couldn't do anything.
I was terrified when I finally saw the man hiding behind his shadow. Si Chase! Nandito siya sa kwarto ko! Sinamaan ko siya ng tingin. Gusto kong sigawan siya ngunit wala akong magawa.
He grinned devilishly. "Your heart hurts, right? It's because you're with him. And not me."
Sunod-sunod ang paghinga ko. Unti-unti ay nai-awang ko ang bibig ko at sunod kong naalala ay sinisigawan ko na siya.
"What do you want from me?" sigaw ko.
Chase slowly walked up to me. He was hiding something behind him. He was holding something. I'm sure of that. He pointed at me.
"Ikaw. Ikaw lang naman ang kailangan ko, Allison." Naluha siya habang lumalapit sa akin. "Come with me."
He thrust his arms towards me, waiting for me to accept it. I looked at Heath, who was sleeping soundly. I shifted my gaze at my fingers and started to count them. I realized that this was a dream when I saw eleven fingers in my hands.
