Chapter 13

"I wanna kiss you badly for making me mad, Shan.." he whispered and part my lips.

My heart felt so good as the world stops from revolving while our lips moving slowly. I closed my eyes and tilted my head slightly to deepened our kisses. I felt him stopped kissing me so I opened my eyes to see him why, he's looking at me intently. Our faces are still closed. His grey eyes were a bit sleepy as he suddenly smiled lovingly  and kissed me again. Slow kissed our first kiss.

I can't explain the feeling of him kissing me. I kissed a lot of guys out there but him, his kisses are different. It brought me something that I could not even name. More than that there's an electrifying feeling runs through my body.

"When did you know I'm the one whom promised you?"

I sat down in a big rock beside him. He's staring at the ocean and thinking deeply. I intertwined my both hands and stared at the breathtaking view in front of us.

He looked at me using his serious face. "The night that I told you I will be your future," he said and take my hand making me sit in between his legs.

"Rye.. it's not serious r-right?"

I asked nervously. The thought of this isn't serious and his just carried away.. I don't know at all.

"Serious?" He asked back. "What isn't serious,Shan?"

"Uh, ito.. hindi 'to totoo 'di ba? Kasi hindi ka naman marunong magmahal.."

I heard him chuckled and place his chin above my head. He's even playing with my fingers.

"Bakit marunong ka bang magmahal at tinatanong mo sa akin 'yan?"

Hindi ko alam. Wala akong ni katiting na ideya sa pagmamahal. I have been in different level of intimacy but then, there's nothing serious. Passed time.

At itong nararamdaman ko ngayon.. ito na 'yong kinakatukan ko.

"Kung ano ang nararamdaman mo, sana katulad niyan ang nararamdaman ko para sa'yo, Shan."

I furrowed my brows and turned to faced him.

"Ano?"

"I also thought I don't fall in love," he said in a low baritone of voice. "But.. seems like you made me feel it," he added meaningfully.

Hindi ko man makuha ang gusto niyang ipahiwatig ramdam ko ang abot kaba na tibok ng puso ko. I'm clueless for whatever keeps going.

"You never dated anyone, Rye. Why,?"

"It's because I know I'll only hurt her. Alam ko na noon pa man na I was meant to marry someone I don't really love because was not  able to meet you yet."

"E bakit ka pumayag? Si Kael nga pinaglaban ang karapatan niyang magmahal ng malaya kahit kapalit no'n ay siyang paglayo niya sa inyo," sabi ko. Tinutukoy ang kapatid niya.

"Bakit ko tatanggihan? Wala naman akong balak na magka-girlfriend no'n pa man. At kung iniisip mong hanggang saan ang kaya kong ipaglaban ang karapatan kong mahal, kaya ko nang ipaglaban 'yon.. I have now a reason to fight for my right to love without leaving you, Shan."

Napayuko ako sa sinabi niya at binalik ang tingin sa dagat. Tumataas na ang araw at siya namang pawis ang dumadaloy sa mukha ko.

"Right to fight for your right to love but you better know first if she's worth fighting for," I smiled looking at the beautiful scenery.

"Shan?" tawag niya.

"Hmm?" Lumingon ako sa direksyon niya.

"You're worthy," he said and his hepnotizing eyes pierced on me. "I couldn't see my future, I didn't even had a little image on my head being called Architect," then he smiled sadly.
