Behind His Facade
I WOKE up to the feeling of fingertips running through my hair and another hand sliding down my cheeks. The comforting sensation caused me to let out a low groan and slowly open my eyes, looking around before my eyes settled on the man lying beside me.
Croisx's arms possessively wrapped around my body while my cheeks were resting on his hard chest, feeling his heartbeat. His hair was messy, his eyes glowing, and his smile is so wide that I could feel how happy he is.
"Good morning." He smiled at me softly. I melted at the sight of his dimple.
"Morning." I smiled back, doesn't care how I look like after waking up. I'm still hot, I know. "How long have you been awake?"
"About an hour." An hour?!
I gasp. "You should've woke me up."
He shook his head and trailed his finger to my face, brushing the messy, loose strands away. "I didn't want to. You looked too peaceful."
I smiled and nuzzled my cheek into his chest. "What time is it?"
"Quarter to eight." He replied.
I raised my gaze at him. "Too early. What's your plan for today?"
He cupped my cheeks in his hand, stroking it to feel the gentleness of my skin.
"I'll go to the training centre. Have I already told you I do kickboxing?"
I shook my head. "You didn't."
He gently stroked my hair. "Now you know. Do you want to come with me?"
I couldn't help but smirk as the images of us doing nasty things last night appeared. "I already did last night. We both did," I muttered erotically.
He gasped at my boldness as redness climbed up on his entire face. He buried his face on my head, making me chuckle on his cuteness.
I cupped his cheeks and smiled warmingly at him. "You're so cute. Don't worry, I'll come with you today."
He reciprocated the smile. "Okay. . ." He bent down to kiss my lips. "I'll take you to the shower."
I let out a low shriek when he carried me to the bathroom like a newborn baby. Then, carefully, he sank me into the bathtub. Hinayaan niya akong magbabad sa bathtub at mga ilang oras pagkatapos, he knocked on the door and carried me like I was limped.
He gave me a pair of blue shirts and his Calvin Klein boxer shorts. Habang nagbibihis ako, siya naman ang naligo sa banyo. I teased him by telling him we could shower together, but he declined. His face turned bright red as his lips trembled in embarrassment. Jesus, he blushed like he had never seen my body.
I was shocked when I saw my entire body in front of the mirror. I have plenty of love bites on the curve of my chest, collarbone, and especially across my neck. My lips were deep pink and a little swollen, and my makeup was already gone. Probably, Croisx removed it. He always does. . . I appreciate him for doing it, always.
My body ached as I moved, but there wasn't a part of it I despised. I loved it. I love how different my body feels like after sex.
Nang matapos siya, naabutan niya akong nakaupo sa kanyang gaming chair. He immediately walked towards me, stopping from behind me. I looked up at him. He then leaned forward to kiss my forehead. He earned a warm smile from me.
"Babe, may I dry your hair?" he asked while holding the black blow dryer.
I nodded. "Alright. If you insist."
I stared at him through the mirror. He was so serious about what he was doing in my hair. He was wearing a pair of gray sweatpants and a plain white shirt. Medyo basa pa ang buhok niya kaya may nakasampay na tuwalya sa leeg. I smiled and just stayed silent while he was blow-drying my hair.
My eyes zoomed in on his neck, and I couldn't help but bite my bottom lip as I spotted a few purplish love bites on his neck and jaw. Hindi na ako magtataka kung meron siya sa kanyang dibdib.
Naramdaman yata niyang may nakatitig sa kanya kaya nag-angat siya ng tingin sa akin. A smile immediately tugged on his lips when he caught me staring at him. He tugged my chin upward and gave me a soft kiss from behind.
I smiled against his lips and pushed the back of his nape further. He reciprocated the kiss with the same intensity. He smiled so wide when the kiss ended.
Dinala niya ako sa kama nang matapos siya sa pagpapatuyo ng buhok ko. Mabilis siyang tumabi sa akin at niyakap ako. I let him rest his head on my neck while I stroked his hair. His breath fanned my skin, sending goosebumps in my body.
"Babe?" his voice muffled.
"Hmm?" I hum in question as I continue stroking his hair.
"I hurt you earlier, didn't I?" He asked in a worried voice.
I looked down at him and shook my head. "You didn't."
He sighed. "I did." mahinang sagot niya. "A crime scene on the bed sheets was seen afterwards." He raised his head from my neck, and our eyes instantly locked with each other.
Hindi ako nakapagsalita dahil naalala ko ang nangyari kanina. A blood stain was visible on the bedsheet after we did the deed. Yes, I bled after having sex with him. I took a sigh.
"Can I come with you tomorrow in your OB?" he asked. "I-I want to make sure that you're fine after I ripped your hymen." he muttered with gentleness.
Natawa ako sa sinabi niya. "You're really believing that, huh?" I asked, chuckling, yet I was also curious why I bled despite not being a virgin. Is it because of his size? I was celibate for two years. Is that the reason? Or perhaps, Croisx really tore my hymen? Nah, it's impossible!
I felt him sniffing my scent. "I know, and I am confident that I ripped it."
A loud laugh came out of my mouth. "How sure are you? Hmm?"
Bahagyang tumulis ang nguso niya, nag-iisip. "Well, the hymen doesn't usually tear the first time it's pressed on. And I'm confident that I was the one who tore it."
Napailing na lang ako at hinalikan siya sa noo dahil 'yon lang ang abot ko. He moved up, looking at me. He planted a kiss on my lips before he crawled down and rested his chin on my chest, eyes on my face.
"I ripped it, so you're stuck with me forever," he promised while caressing my cheek.
While drinking a cup coffee, I couldn't help but remember what happened last week. Croisx and I really did it. We did it. Yes, we did.
I cannot stop thinking about our burning, unforgettable kiss. . . The feeling of his hard body against mine, his strong arms around my waist. . . Lastly, his huge cock pounded between my thighs.
Okay, so it's been a long time since I've gotten laid. But also, there's an undoubted attraction between us. Every time we're in the same room, the air feels hot, like there was a burning electricity.
And yes, I already watched him do kickboxing, and I could say he's undeniably fucking hot. I didn't know that behind his facade, he's dangerously unbeatable. Ngayon nga ay babalik kami doon sa training centre dahil nagpapaturo ako.
Kanina pa ako natapos maligo at hinihintay ko na lang siya na dumating. I'm only wearing a navy blue ribbed cut seamless sports bra and gym shorts with the same color as my top. I paired my outfit with white running shoes and a white jacket.
"Khrizanta? Babe?"
I immediately stood from my seat when I heard Croisx's voice from the living room. I pushed the door wide open and marched towards his way.
Our eyes met, and his eyes twinkled when he saw me. Mabilis ko siyang pinasadahan ng tingin. He's wearing black gym shorts, a white compression shirt and an Aegean blue jacket. An Adidas gym bag was hanging on his shoulder. On his feet is a white running shoe. So handsome.
He planted a soft kiss on my forehead. "It's your safe day, right?" he asked out of the blue.
My eyes squinted in confusion. "Yes. How did you know?"
He licked his lips and smiled.
"I-I actually track your period last time, babe. I wanted to know when do I need to buy you a stock of your pads and prepare your hot compress. And so I could stock more lavender oil. I still remember how terrible your cramps were." He pushed the strands of my hair that were covering my face.
Nanlaki naman ang mga mata ko sa gulat. My heartbeat pounded while hearing his courteous words.
Since the day Croisx helped me with my period, he started studying my menstruation cycle. He saved it on his phone and even calculated it every now and then. Kaya pala kapag nagkakaroon ako ng cramps ay kaagad siyang naghahanda ng hot compress at ng pain reliever para sa akin. He even asked for my cravings.
Simula nang may nangyari sa amin, halos hindi na umaalis sa tabi ko si Croisx. He basically showed how clingy he was. Palagi niya rin akong pinagsisilbihan na animo isa siyang alipin ko. Hindi na rin siya nahihiyang mag-open ng conversation. Mas naging vocal na siya sa kanyang nararamdaman. Hindi na rin siya nauutal, although may mga pagkakataon na nauutal at namumula pa rin siya dahil bulgaran ako kung magsalita.
We arrived at the training centre riding Croisx's bike. Tuwang-tuwa ako dahil ngayon na lang ulit ako nakasakay sa motor niya. Sa tuwing lalabas kasi kami ay ang sasakyan ko ang gamit namin. Although, wala naman problema sa akin 'yon.
"Babe, let's go inside." He reached my hand and intertwined it with his, slightly pulling me across the training centre.
We made our way to where the boxing ring stood. A guy with dark brown skin stopped punching hard into the punching bag when he spotted us. He's Croisx's coach. I met him last week when Croisx invited me to come with him.
"Nandito ka pala, Croisx!" His coach shouted. He took off his boxing gloves and jumped over the ring, landing gracefully on his feet. His eyes playfully scanned over me before he looked back at Croisx. "Anong meron?"
Croisx pointed at me with a bright smile on his face. "I'll teach her boxing."
His coach nodded in understanding. "Sige. Kapag may kailangan kayo, nandoon lang ako sa office ko."
"Sige po, coach."
He just tapped Croisx's shoulder before he grabbed a towel, hung it around his strong shoulders, and left us. Noong kaming dalawa na lang ni Croisx ay dumiretso kami sa locker area para doon ilagay ang mga bitbit namin. I walked out of the locker with my gym outfit only.
Just then, Croisx came up to the ring wearing his compression shirt, hopped over the ropes, and walked over to guide me up to the ring. I couldn't help but bite my bottom lip as I looked insanely into his ripped muscles and his almost sculpted six-pack abs that could still seen in his shirt! Fuck!
I suddenly miss his body against mine.
I heave a sigh to erase that nasty thoughts. My eyes tails Croisx when he walked near me with a boxing gloves in his hands. "Here." I look up at him when he put the glove on me himself.
My eyes widened when he cock his head a little, closing the gap between us, and smiled at me. "Show me what you've got." He gestured to the punching bag.
I nodded absently. He steps aside while I step forward, getting closer to the punching bag. I sigh, fixing my posture and throw the most pathetic punch in the world at the punching bag.
Croisx burst out into laughter. My entire face burned in embarrassment and disbelief.
"Hey! Don't laugh! That was a practice one!" I defended. His laugh even got louder, making me glared at him. "Ayoko na nga!"
He immediately stopped laughing when he saw my reaction. Croisx instantly approached me and caressed my arm, calming me. "Babe, I was just teasing you. Don't be mad at me. Hmm? Come on, I'll show you how to punch right."
"Okay." I easily surrendered.
He kissed my temple before he left me in front of the punching bag and stood behind me. "You must punch like this." He took my hand and put it in the proper position. "Never envelop your fingers around your thumb. Position it over and behind your fingers." He took my thumb and placed it properly.
Nakatingin lang ako sa kanya, nakikinig sa bawat paalala niya.
"Putting your thumb inside your fist will only cause you sprained, dislocated, or broken thumb." I nodded in understanding. "Squeeze your hand but not so hard that you cut off your blood circulation. Loosen it a bit." I obeyed. "Now try to punch the boxing bag."
"Okay!"
He told me to throw a punch, and I did as hard as I could. It was much better than last time, but it hurt much more. Fuck! Probably because of how much strength I used.
He approached me and reached for my hand. "You did great. However, when you hit your target, you want to strike with the first two knuckles." He covered his hand over mine and directed it to the punching bag. "Not that flat front part of your fist or the smaller knuckles on your ring or pinky fingers. Now try to throw a punch."
"Okay." I nodded and threw another punch in the bag.
"Wow, you should take up a career in boxing."
I glanced at him and chuckled. I threw another punch in the bag, earning another praise from him. Naglakad siya palapit sa likuran ng punching bag at hinawakan 'yon. "Now, punch it again."
I nodded. I aimed another punch at the bag, and when I did it right, I couldn't help but jump in triumph.
Croisx smiled so wide before he stepped towards me and pulled me against his body. He tilted my chin and kissed me on the lips, which I gladly returned. He smiled against my lips before he slightly withdrew from kissing me.
"You did so great." He cupped my face and kissed me again, only a smack this time.
"Oh, yeah?" I found my hand encircling his waist. My chin is resting on his chest. "Might as well impressed me. I'll reward you if you make me impress." I smirked and pushed him lightly.
I removed the gloves in my hands and gave it to him so he could wear it. Pumwesto ako sa bandang likuran niya, hindi masyadong malapit at baka matamaan niya ako.
Croisx started jumping a little before he fixed his posture before he started. I covered my mouth to suppress a gasp of amusement when Croisx sent a flying kick towards the punching bag. A look of determination takes over Croisx's face before he lands a firm push and kick towards the bag, sending it backwards once again.
Then he winds up punching the bag, gently enough to not seriously destroy it but still full of power. Then, Croisx performs a flawless spinning back kick that sends the bag flying to the ground.
Wow! That was fucking amazing!
I immediately stood straight and gave him a loud applause. "Whoa! That was incredible!" I praised, giving him a thumbs up.
"Did I make you impress?" He nodded, unstrapping his hands from the boxing gloves and wiping them down his gym shorts.
I smiled brightly, nodding.
"Really?" I swallowed hard when he suddenly pulled up his compression shirt, revealing his body. The sweat dripping down his bare chest took my entire attention. "Babe?"
I blinked in anticipation. "Huh? Y-Yes. Your reward is on the locker," I snapped out of it.
"In the locker?" he muttered in confusion.
"Y-Yes." Hilaw akong ngumiti.
My body jolted a bit when I felt his lips on my shoulders. "I'm excited to receive my reward." Is it just me, or does his tone sound salacious?
"Oh, yeah? Oh my god!" I shrieked when he suddenly picked me up, throwing me over his shoulder. "Croisx! What are you doing?! Put me down!"
He didn't pay any attention to my shrieks and kept me there. He started hopping over the rope so we could exit the ring. I slap his uncovered back, but he just chuckled at my tantrums. Binaba niya lang ako noong nakarating kami sa loob ng locker.
I hit him lightly on his chest after he carefully let go of me. He chuckled upon seeing my reaction and pinned me into the locker. My back clustered into it. Damn it!
He intensely stared at me as he slowly leaned over my ears. "Can I receive my reward now?" his voice sounds low and husky.
The atmosphere around us became hotter as I felt the naked skin of his chest press against my body. I swallowed hard when heat suddenly overtook my body.
I was startled when he didn't wait for my answer. Like a lightning bolt, he smashed his lips into mine. I moaned in his mouth when he sucked my tongue like an expert.
Slowly, I wrapped my arms around his neck and locked it when I felt weak with his dare move. Fuck! Since when did he learn how to kiss better than me?!
I bit his bottom lip as I moan in his mouth when he smacked my ass, squeezing it like how he does with my boobs. I tilted my head to the side when his lips went on my jaw down to my neck, planting soft and wet kisses there.
I shut my eyes tightly as I puff to get oxygen. Pinaglapat niya ang mga noo namin habang parehong nakatingin kami sa isa't-isa.
"Should we convert our potential energy to kinetic energy?" he muttered sensually.
Hindi ako nagsalita at basta na lang hinila ang batok niya palapit sa akin. Without any words, I sealed his lips for a hungry kiss that caused him to moan.
