I am and He is Sam Lee Garcia Concepcion. Small World, huh?

Chapter 18

"Why are you laughing? Can't you see this is serious matter!" I start laughing again when he gave me a serious look. As if what I just did is really a huge mistake. 

When I finally got over laughing, I say,

"I'm sorry. I didn't know it was so hard for you to pop popcorns."

"I'll never allow for my popcorns to be in your clutches again," he warns. I just nod, still fighting off giggles. 

He gives me a cross look and mumbles something under his breath. I give him a bright smile, he scoffs and then sits back up on his original seat. I almost giggled when he made sure the bowl of popcorn is far from my hands 'clutches' 

Halfway through the movie, I already doubled over of laughter more than a dozen times. The movie was is really funny, ridiculous. But funny nonetheless. I glance at Sam and see he is so serious. Does he have not a single funny bone in his body? I poke his arm. Irritated, he looks at me.

"Why so serious?" I ask, unfazed by the cold treatment.

"The movie is not funny at all," he says lamely, facing me. His gray eyes accidentally meeting my brown ones. I was startled. Partly because of him suddenly looking at me. Mainly because I think he have gorgeous gray eyes. I mentally shook my head, and I'm guessing so did he. 

We turn our attentions back to the movie, feeling awkward. Suddenly, finishing the movie with Sam beside me is starting to sound like a bad idea. Even though I think the movie is really good. it's just, my intestines started to do something like jump maniacally around my stomach ever since our eyes parted. 

And without my permission, my stomach grumbles loudly. 

"Shoot!" I yelp as I put a hand over my grumbling stomach. I haven't eaten anything except the crackers for my lunch.

Sam's brows furrows but before I can defend myself, another loud sound erupts from my stomach. My face heats up and by that time, I'm sure I'll do anything to just turn to dust. This is so embarassing. 

Sam guffaws. And I turned, if it is still possible, even redder.

"Shut up," my muffled voice tells him. I grab the pillow and hide my face. Trying hard to sound dignified. But that is hard to do. Especially if your stomach grumbles again. I groan and drop the pillow. Looking at En laughing made me trigger my laugh too. The situation is still incredibly embarrasing and awkward, for me. But somehow I managed to laugh. Just because.

For over two minutes we were just laughing. Him at me and Me at him. I am certain we look like crazy dorks at the moment.

"Whatever," I say after awhile, glancing anywhere except his face. It tends to distract me at times, as annoying as that sounds.

A few seconds later, he nudges a cold object in my arm. I look at it and see him offering his half full bowl of popcorn.

"Seriously?" I ask, my mouth breaking into a grin.

"Whatever," he rolls his eyes and nudged the bowl some more. As if saying: take it already, before I change my mind. 

"What about the hardships you felt while making these?" I question, smiling widely. I get the bowl and started nibbling on one popcorn.

"You rather not eat?" he scowls at me.

"I'd rather eat." I say, then add, "Thank you."

"You aren't a very helpful slave, are you? Instead of giving me food I'm the one giving you." he states after a few moments.

"Right. Thank you very much." I reply sarcastically.

"No Problem. Next time, you're not welcome" he says, with the same level of sarcasm as mine.

"Dude, that's so mean," I bite my lip.

"Err, not really. That was a joke." he says awkwardly.

"So I'm welcome?" I ask, feeling foolish and childish at the same time.

"Anytime," he replies. My eyes got wrenched from the tv screen and looked at him. He sticks his tongue out like the childish boy he is.

Rolling my eyes, I copy his immature gesture. He smiles his signature smirk. And again, I felt my intestines somersaulting inside my stomach. But this time I have a feeling it isn't just because I'm hungry.
