Later that night..
"What the fuck? Hindi ikaw yung nag tetext sakin?" Cole said were here sa sofa, "I told you, i love you. bakit ko naman gagawin yun eh mahal nga kita?" Sabi naman ni Aziel, "Malay mo? i guess dahil nireject kita kaya you can do that?" Malay mo naman diba? "Ang hina ko naman sayo Cole, diba sinabi ko na i will never do that? you know kahit nireject mo ko i will never do that kind of thing cause i love you more than anything, anyone. It's not valid if yung reason is nireject mo 'ko then magiging stalker mo na ako?" yeah.. he's true naman.. "okay im sorry hindi na ko mag iisip ng ganon.. "it's okay cole, anw birthday pala ng tropa namin ngayon and nag aaya ng bgc, pwede ba ko sumama?" Aziel said, "tanginamo ba? ano ako jowa mo? bat sakin ka nag papaalam?" sabi ko naman, "wala lang para aware ka, pero ano nga pwede ba?" ok lang ba to? "syempre naman pwede, birthday ng kaibigan mo yan eh" nagulat ako nang bigla syang tumayo at tumalon na may halong ngiti.
Cole POV:
Wala si Aziel ngayon, he's with his friends sa xylo para icelebrate yung birthday ng tropa nya so i guess madaling araw na sya makaka uwi. Andito ako sa sofa, nanonood ng tv when the door suddenly open,
It's Aziel.
Aziel POV:
Noong nakita kong pamunta si Cole saakin para bang nawala yung lasing saaking katawan but wait, why is he still up? "Why are you still up?" Sabi ko, "Nakainom ka ba?" Pag iiwas nya sa tanong ko "Yes" magsasalita na dapat sya nang bigla ko syang pinigilan "but I can manage, baby, don't worry" pag pigil ko "gago? ayaw kong mag-alaga ng lasing" Cole said "I'm not drunk" i said "oh oks tara na sa sofa"
Hmm.. anong nangyari? anong nangyari sakanila matapos ang gabing iyon? matapos nung nalaman na ni Cole na hindi pala si Aziel yung matagal nang sumusunod sakanya? What are you gonna do if yung childhood friend mo ay na miss mo? will you play with him/her? or dadalhin mo sya sa labas para makapag bonding kayo after all those years?? Well i guess.. for Cole, None of the above.
Iniwan ko muna sya dun sa sofa para gumawa ng hot chocolate, "Here." Aziel gladly accepted the cup and sips on it without breaking eye contact. "Nakakagulat ka naman, bigla biglang pupunta. l'm sleepy pa naman na," Cole yawns after mumbling those words. Aziel chuckled and pinches his cheek, "Sorry. Namiss lang kita." He knew exactly what words to utter in order to make one's heart flutter. "Ulol." Cole responds with a sour look on his face before actually smiling. Aziel's laugh echoed in the empty room as he followed Cole and sat beside him on the sofa. His eyes are almost in a line with his nose scrunching and winsome smile. It was dark. The only thing illuminating them is the small light from the kitchen which is a few meters away from the two. The vicinity is quiet but it wasn't awkward at all - Cole and Aziel seems to enjoy the silence. However, it annoys Cole that Aziel is insanely attractive which drives him crazy-but his black top is now untucked on his low waist jeans, his hair slightly disheveled, and his lips looking plump. Who knows what he did in that cocktail lounge? It's just Cole's possessive side that's kicking in, but he's not really jealous or what. He doesn't want commitment too so he wouldn't dare bring it up to Aziel as it seems shallow. But it appears that the latter knows him well that he explained everything in a way that he wouldn't sound defensive. "It's so cold outside, parang mamamaga labi ko. I should've worn something else," he casually says after sipping in his cup. Cole glanced at him so he continues, "I didn't like it there." Cole purses his lips and comes closer to smell his mouth before getting away frowning, "Amoy tequila ka nga." "I'm not even tipsy," Aziel laughs at him. "I took like - three shots and nothing more." "Wala naman sinabi yung mga kaibigan mo? You know, umuwi ka agad." Cole asks without glancing at him and holding his cup firmly. Aziel shook his head and his brow creased, "Wala naman. They know I'll go to you." "You won't leave after this? I'll lock the door kasi kung sakali," Cole meets his eye. Aziel stares at him before replying, "I prefer staying here." Cole nods his head slowly as his heart continues to pound. "Can you move closer, Cole? Ang dilim, I can't see you." Aziel asks him before putting his cup on the table. He reached for Cole's hot chocolate on the latter's hand and put it away too. Cole moved near him- they're almost glued to each other like how they usually are shoulders touching, their arms almost squeezed together, their thighs resting. But to Aziel, it's not enough. For leverage, his left hand grabs Cole by the waist and lift him with no effort to sit on his lap. He can carry him with ease. Cole doesn't seem to mind as they are normally intimate when no one's around. "There. Much better," Aziel breathes in Cole's neck. Cole closes his eyes, hooks his right arm on Aziel's nape, and leans on his chest. Aziel's left hand is holding his waist while the right is above his thighs. "What if tulog pala ako kanina?" Cole randomly asks, his eyes remained closed. His cheeks are resting on Aziel's forehead that the latters feels his movement everytime he speaks. Aziel inched closer until his nose touches Cole's neck. He sniffs his neck before answering, "You deserve a rest, so I'd go home"
-End.
