Be Mine

45

Lia is fidgeting her free hand while listening to the host's instructions of the wedding game. She suddenly got nervous when she learned about the mechanics of the game. Why does it have to be a kissing game? 

The host asked the guys to form a line, while the girls stand opposite of them. She helped Caloy pull up his sleeve. She can't believe she is part of this game. She is silently cursing Ella in her head and she also can't believe that Ella and Anton really made sure that everyone participates because of the prize. Amanpulo is a damn good place to be in and she wouldn't mind spending some time in a beautiful place like that.

She is standing across him and Caloy is giving her a look, assuring her to just relax and take her time with the game. However, her competitiveness is starting to fuel her body. She is already starting to strategize. She'll just make sure to put a lot of marks on the safe body parts that she will see on screen. They are now handed with the blindfold and the lipstick. She checked and the lipstick has a dark red pigment, now it's on her on how to make it stick on Caloy's skin. The host asked the guys to put their blindfolds on and then she heard the host starting the countdown.

"In 3... 2... 1... Go!"

Her adrenalin started to rush in her body and automatically puts lipstick on her lips. She saw the first body part and went straight to Caloy's chest. She had to hold on to his arms and shoulders as he is a tall guy, but he stepped back.

"Shit. Don't move, Caloy!", she tells him so she can keep on filling his chest. She tried to make sure that the lipstick mark will be seen.

"We're flashing the next body part, girls!", she checked the screen and raised his arms, thanking him silently that he helped in keeping it raised for her. She started kissing them until she heard the coordinator to put more lipstick. She did and resumed kissing both his arms.

"One minute and twenty seconds, girls! Next body part is on the screen!", the host said and when she checked, it flashed the word, ear, but she thought, he is too tall so she went back to his arms so she can put in more points.

She wanted to laugh when she heard Bianca say, "Hoy, Lia! Halikan mo yung nasa screen! Wag kang umiwas!". She is not avoiding it, but she is just being strategic. Besides, the arms has more space than the ear.

"Last one minute! I see some couples are enjoying this, ha! Next body part, ladies!"

She took a break by putting on more lipstick and took a glance at the other couples. When she saw the next body part, the cheeks. "Lia? Ano na?", she heard Caloy say. "Someone's impatient!", her mind says before holding on to his shoulders for support and started kissing his cheeks, trying to fill it up as much as she can. She saw how Caloy smiled. "Enjoy na enjoy ang mokong!", she tells herself.

"Forty seconds, girls! Next body part!"

She swiped more stain on her lips while reading the next body part. She saw that it is his neck. She asked him to bend so she can reach him and tilted his chin up so she can kiss his neck easily. She can smell his perfume and she doesn't know why the butterflies in her stomach are rejoicing with just his scent. She kissed around his neck, even his Adam's apple.

"Last twenty seconds and we are showing all the body parts on screen, so go and get crazy, ladies!"

"C'mon, Lia!", she hears him say and her heart is beating faster, thanks to the adrenalin. Twenty seconds left and she is not sure if she placed enough kisses. She checked the screen to see the other body parts and pushed him lower, holding on to his shoulders, so she can reach his forehead. "Ten seconds left!", she hears the host and she had to mutter, "Shit!", out of panic. From his forehead, she then moved to his nose immediately and placed around five kisses there as she counted in her head.
