"No. I'm bringing you home." I stood before carrying her bridal style. Tumawa naman ulit si Eleanor habang buhat-buhat ko siya. If you don't know her for real, you'll mistake her as a lunatic. Tawa ng tawa, masyadong masaya.
"Oh my God! Rarape-in ako ni Chance Sandoval..." She laughed bago paglaruan ang pisngi ko. Buti na lang at malapit na kami sa sasakyan. Matutumba ata ako sa kalikutan ng babaeng to.
"Dream on, Eleanor. I'd rather make you beg." I smirked.
"Duh, ang sungit mo kaya. Ayoko sayo." She pouted.
"Ayoko din sayo. Masyado kang friendly. Ang dami mong lalaki."
"Then the feeling is mutual, Chance baby. Pwede na tayong MU." She laughed again habang nagdadrive ako. Nasanay na naman ako sa pagtawa ni Eleanor. Well, if she's a happy person then so be it.
"Ano tayo bata? MU?"
"If I know, gusto mo na ako eh. Pero Chance ha... no strings attached." Eleanor mumbled. Napatingin ako sa kanya ng nakakunot ang noo. Naalala ko na naman tuloy yung usapan namin sa simula.
No string attached. Basta pag nasaktan ako, pananagutan niya ako.
Then damn it, I wanna get hurt. Basta sasaluhin naman ako ng babaeng to.
I knew I have something for this girl now. I just don't want to recognize it. Or better yet, I'm still afraid to do so. I wouldn't act like a crazy paranoid man if I'm just being... friendly, right?
Buhat ko pa rin siya pabalik sa condo niya. Masyado nga lang siyang malikot kaya binuhat ko siya ng parang sako. Magaan naman si Eleanor.
"Chance!! Bilhan mo kong ice cream..."
"Ayoko." I put her down on her feet at dahil tipsy siya, she held my shoulders for support.
"Ice cream..." She muttered before wrapping her arms around my neck.
"Damn it, Eleanor. Umayos ka, lasing ka na." I flinched with her touch. Para akong nakukuryente sa paghawak niya sakin.
"I'm not drunk." She turned until her face is inches away from me.
"Yes, you are."
"I can prove to you I'm not."
"Really? I know you are drunk, Eleanor." Dahan-dahan namang sumilay ang isang mapag-larong ngisi niya. Don't trust her smirk, may masama siyang plano sayo.
And before I knew it, I felt her lips crushing against mine. My eyes widened. Hindi ako nakagalaw sa ginawa niya. I was too stunned to move.
Should I pull away or should I kiss her back? Cause damn, if there is one more thing Eleanor was good at, it was kissing.
I chose the latter.
I placed my hand on her waist, pulling her closer. I felt Eleanor smirking against my lips when I kissed her back. She knew I'm gonna give in.
