Chapter 12

I crouched a bit as I felt the cold touching my bare back. Siniksik kong muli ang ulo ko unan para matulog muli dahil pakiramdam ko, sasaglit palang ang pahinga ko simula kagabi.

May trabaho pa ako mamaya sa cafe kaya gusto ko sanang sulitin pa ang natitirang oras ng pahinga ko pero masyado talagang malamig kaya hindi ko na napigilan pang imulat ang mga mata ko.

And just when my eyes caught him, he immediately walked towards my side to lay beside me. He's not wearing anything on top but he seemed unbothered by the cold. Hindi ko rin naramdaman ang lamig sa katawan niya noong magdikit ang balat naming dalawa nang yakapin niya ako.

"Uminom lang ako ng tubig..." He explained as if I asked him where did he went.

Hindi ko siya sinagot at pumikit nalang muli. I tried hard to fall asleep again but I failed unfortunately kaya tuluyan ko nang nilabanan ang antok ko para harapin siya.

His eyes are closed when I faced him but I know he's still awake. Nanatili sa kanya ang mga mata ko habang iniisip kung paano kami napunta sa ganitong sitwasyon.

I'm annoyed of him. I was and still am but somehow, I enjoy his company. I enjoy whatever we're doing for the past month. Hindi ko alam, parang biglang isang araw, nagdesisyon nalang kaming dalawa.

Probably because of the sexual tension between us whenever we're alone. Hindi ko rin inakala na masusundan pa 'yung nangyari noong New Year's Eve. It just happens that I would crave for it whenever he's around. I know this is dangerous because I might get attached but this, I think, is how I'm coping up.

"So what are we?" 

I could still remembering how he asked the next morning after New Year's eve.

"Nothing," 

Wala naman talaga akong alam na isasagot sa tanong niya.

"Nothing?" He repeated.

Tumango ako. I don't want commitments and attachments. Lalo na sa isang tao na hindi ko pa masyadong kilala. Kaya nagtataka rin ako kung bakit ang bilis kong bumigay sa kanya.

"Friends?" He offered.

Hindi ko napigilang mapasinghap at matawa kalaunan. Nasa ibabaw niya pa ako at namumuo pa ang pawis tapos ganoon ang itatanong niya sa akin.

"I'm serious..." He whined while his hands are guiding my waist in place.

I moved in slow rhythm and he groaned. Pilit niya akong pinapatigil gamit ang mahigpit niyang kapit sa bewang ko kaya mas lalo akong natawa.

"We're actually fucking right now and you'll tell me we're friends?" Ani ko.

"Friends do fuck," He reasoned out.

"I don't fuck with my friends," 

He pouted. Nanatili ang mga mata namin sa isa't isa. Tumigil rin ako sa paggalaw at pinanood siyang suklayin ang buhok niya gamit ang mga daliri niya. His eyes even darkened when he realized that I'm not letting my eyes off him.

Huminga siya ng malalim saka niya kinagat ang pang ibabang labi niya. He put his hand back on my waist and slowly caressed it.

"So.... fuck buddies?" Nag aalinlangan niya pang tanong.

Kaagad akong tumango at humilig para halikan siyang muli. He was quickly downed with my kisses and our rhytmic movements until we both reached our peak.

Maybe we're fuck buddies... and we share some thoughts. Although we're not technically particular with our personal lives, marami parin akong alam na kwento tungkol sa buhay niya at ganoon rin siya sa akin.
