"Dito na lang," I said, looking around his apartment. Malinis naman. 'Di naman ako iyong tipo ng babae na sentimental... I just really wanted to do it with him. The other details would be inconsequential.

"Nope," he said, pulling away from the hug and getting his phone. May ginagawa siya sa phone niya habang naiwan akong nakatayo doon. Paunti-unti, pakunot nang pakunot ang noo niya. "Ang hirap ng walang sasakyan, pota," he uttered.

I sat adjacent to him.

"Okay. Dito na," he said, standing up.

"Saan?"

"Basta."

"Saan nga?"

"Hotel."

"Mahal," I said.

Iñigo walked up to me and kneeled in front of me. He held my hand and looked directly into my eyes. "This is your first time, okay? I want this to be special. For you," he said, but I still remained silent. Ever since I started working, I began to realize the value of money. Mahirap kumita ng pera... I just found it ridiculous to throw money to a hotel when we could do it here.

"Please, Cha?" he pleaded. "Yung pera, kikitain ko ulit 'yan... Pero ito? Hindi na 'to mauulit."

I pursed my lips.

"May job offers na ko pagka-graduate ko. Malaki 'yung sweldo. I'll be fine, promise. Hindi ako magugutom kapag nagcheck-in tayo sa hotel ngayon, okay?"

I sighed. "Fine."

He sighed. "Good," he said, pulling me with him. "Bilisan natin kasi 12noon 'yung check-out."

Everything happened so fast. We booked a ride to the hotel that Iñigo wanted to bring me to and I frowned so hard when I saw that it was a 5-star hotel. I was frowning, but Iñigo was blatantly ignoring me. It was an eyesore when I saw him give his debit card para bayaran iyong kwarto. That was his hard-earned money. Kitang-kita ko kung paano siya mahirapan sa firm sa dami ng pinapagawa.

This room and sex better be good.

Iñigo held my hand as we rode the elevator. Pagdating namin 'dun, sabi ni Iñigo maligo daw muna ako.

"Mabaho ba ako?"

He laughed. "Hindi! Basta, sa CR ka muna, okay?"

I rolled my eyes. Pumasok na ako sa CR and did as instructed. Iñigo spent a lot of money for this so I was trying to be cooperative. I stayed in the CR for a few good minutes bago ako lumabas. Agad na napa-angat ang kilay ko nang may marinig akong mabagal na kanta.

I pursed my lips.

"Seriously?" I asked when I realized that there were scattered petals everywhere and candle lights and Iñigo was even holding a stem of rose in his hand.

"Last minute preparation," he said, shrugging. "Bigla-bigla ka nag-aaya ng sex kasi, Cha."

I rolled my eyes again. Iñigo Borromeo wouldn't be Iñigo Borromeo if he couldn't make me roll my eyes in both irritation and admiration.

"For you, Charisse Faith," he said, closing the gap between us and handing me the stem of rose. I took it from him and looked at him. He was smiling at me... iyang ngiti na dahilan kung bakit nandito ako sa isang hotel room, wearing only a bathrobe, and staring at him and wondering why it took us 3 years to get to this point.

"I promise I'll make it good," he said.

"Okay," I replied, nodding.

"Ligo muna ako," sabi niya. "Sabay ka?" he asked, laughing.

"Okay," I replied.

His eyes widened. He gulped. He blinked. He groaned.

And then he pulled me back to the bathroom and we took the longest shower I ever took in my life.

* * *

My eyes were wide, staring at the ceiling in front of me. But even then, it was as if I could see Iñigo's smug look... He was... Wow. I wanted to thank all the girls he dated because they all contributed to who he is today.

"Ano? Kaya pa?" he asked, rolling over until he's right beside me. I was still breathing deeply, trying to recover from what he did to me in the bathroom. "Dila at daliri ko pa lang 'yun, Cha," sabi niya sabay halakhak. Tinakip ko iyong kamay ko sa mukha niya. Iñigo and his words would be the death of me.

"Let me breathe, okay."

"Room service muna tayo?"

"Okay," I said. "But I'll pay."

"Nah. Ako taya."

"E 'di 'wag na tayong kumain."

"Tsk. Fine."

We read the menu and spent a few minutes choosing what to eat. Pinili pa ni Iñigo iyong pinaka-mura kaya nag-away kami sandali. Ang mahal ng binayaran niya para sa suite na 'to, so I demanded he order what he really wanted to eat.

When the food arrived, we ate while he was reviewing me by asking me random questions about Poli and Labor. He kept on giving me thumbs up dahil nakaka-sagot ako. I'd been reviewing for as long as I could remember. Sukang-suka na ako sa pagrereview.

"Ready ka na?" he asked. We were standing in front of the sink, brushing our teeth pagkatapos naming kumain. I nodded. "Basta sabihin mo kapag sobrang sakit o kaya kapag nagbago isip mo, okay? No hard feelings."

"Ganito ka ba sa lahat ng nakaka-sex mo?"

"Yeah... I mean, everybody deserves to have a choice?"

I pursed my lips.

Damn Iñigo.

"Pero ikaw lang dinala ko sa hotel," he said. "No pressure... pero syempre only the best para sa crush ko."

I rolled my eyes again. Naglakad ako pabalik sa kama at naupo sa dulo nun. Iñigo stood in front of me and then kneeled.

"Di na ako magsasalita kasi sabi mo awkward, but please tell me kapag ayaw mo na o—" he said, but I cut him half-way by grabbing his face and kissing him full on the lips. I coaxed his mouth to open and plunged my tongue inside. God, thank you for making Iñigo Borromeo.

Iñigo hovered on top of me, quickly removing both our bathrobes until we're both naked again. I could feel him poking my stomach. He was so... ready. And I was so... scared. I knew that it would hurt. He looked so big. But I could do this. Hindi naman ako ang unang virgin sa mundo.

Iñigo kissed my lips until I couldn't feel them anymore because they're so sore... and then he went down and gave the same attention to my breasts... and then further down he went.

I closed my eyes and let him.

The first time, I really almost punched him.

But... it felt... nice.

I was breathing deeply as I felt him doing wonders. Hingal na hingal ako nang matapos ako. And then we were face to face again. I could see beads of sweat on his forehead.

Naupo siya sa tabi ko. He reached for his wallet on the side table and whipped out a condom. I silently watched as he ripped the wrapper and rolled the thing on his thing.

God, this was really happening.

Hindi kaya mas maadik ako dito at ito pa rin ang isipin ko sa mismong BAR?

"I heard mas okay kapag wala?" I asked because Rory told me that it was way better kapag wala. Although hindi ko naman tinatanong. All those unsolicited knowledges about sex that Rory imparted... mukhang magagamit ko na.

"Di ko alam," Iñigo said. "Di ko pa na-try."

I arched my brow. He laughed.

"Grabe naman," he said. "The best sex is safe sex kaya ang motto ko," he continued before pulling me up, making me straddle him. He held his length and then held my waist with his other hand, helping me find the position.

"I might cry... but don't stop," I said as I felt his thing pointing... there.

He nodded. "Goodbye, virgin Cha..." he said as I slowly felt him in me.
