Who's the Boss? (Salvaje Caballero Series 1)

Diecinueve

Ynoa's POV

I woke up feeling like something is covering me. That's when I realized that I slept with Roemer in the same bed!

Awtomatikong napangiti ako nang makita ang mahimbing niyang tulog. I traced his thick eyebrows down to his chin, trying to mark what's mine. My cheeks reddened because of my thoughts. Kahit nakapikit ay napakagwapo pa din niya. He looks so innocent with closed eyes, his thick and long eyelashes made him more gorgeous.

The side of his lips rose. "Staring is a crime." His morning voice echoed. It was so husky and soft.

"Whatever, sleepyhead. We gotta work." I uttered.

He groaned, still his eyes closed. I chuckled. He pulled me into a hug and buried his face on my neck, I felt how warm his breath. Parang ginising iyon ang lahat ng systema ko.

"Let's skip work. I'm the boss after all." He whispered. Napairap ako.

"Let's get up! I'm the boss here." I smirked when he withdrawn to his hug and glared at me.

"Just a minute?" He pleaded.

"No."

"30 seconds?"

"No!" natatawa kong sambit. He grunted, I chuckled more. I planted a soft kiss on his cheeks. I pinched his nose and laughed.

"Let's get up!" I yelled. Nauna na akong bumangon dahil baka patulan ko ang ideya niyang huwag ng pumasok sa trabaho.

Mornings like this repeated. And I never felt this complete and contented all my life.

"Roemer, you have an appointment this evening right?" I asked. He's sitting in his swivel chair while arranging the paper in his table.

"Yes, but I'll try to go home early." He whispered. Nanlaki ang mata ko nang hinila niya ako, napaupo tuloy ako sa kandungan niya.

"Roemer!" sita ko. He only chuckled and buried his face on my neck.

"I'm tired. I want to go home with you." He mumbled. My heart broke at his words. I'm afraid I'd give in to what he wants. I promised Harry that we'll meet this dinner.

"Baby, it's okay. I have to do something." I uttered.

Napatingin naman siya sa akin.

"Where are you going?" He interrogated like an agent. I chuckled.

"Just a dinner with an old friend." I smiled. He remained silent for minutes.

"No." tanggi niya. I sighed more.

"Baby, please? You trust me right? We just need to talk about something important." I tried so hard to explain but he seemed so sure with what he said.

"Please?" I pleaded more. He sighed and hugged me again.

"Dapat nasa bahay ka na kapag nakauwi na ako. Update me also." bulong niya na para bang nahihirapan niya akong payagan.

"It won't take long! I promise!" 

He kissed me before letting me go. He have a business meeting to attend to.

I texted Harry that I'm on my way to the restaurant he told me. I rejected his offer to fetch me not because I'm afraid that anyone might see us but because I am not comfortable.

Magpapara na sana ako ng taxi nang may humarang sa harap ko na isang van. Nanlaki ang mata ko nang lumabas doon ang dalawang lalaki na nakaitim at balot ang mukha.
