SEBASTIAN
"Bastian, Nabasa mo na ba to?" My dad angrily asked.
"Dad, I have no idea what you're talking about." I sat down on the sofa, My parents looking down on me. Dad aggressively gave me his phone.
"SEBASTIAN CASTEL'S PARTY RAGE"
"Have you read the comments dad?" Tanong ko.
"The comments?" I crossed my legs. My mom started reading the comments.
"They think I'm a hero. It seems like kahit anong gawin ko, Mahal ako ng tao." Napahawak si dad sa sentido.
"No. No! Didn't I tell you?! Hindi ka pwede magkaroon ng negative publicity! Kahit ano pa yan!" My dad raged. Bumuntong hininga ako. Dad can be a bit overbearing, I mean, He's not tito Azrael. But he's something of a light switch himself. Either insanely proud of me or awfully angry. I prefer the good sides of him, Pero madali ring sumama ang tingin nito sa akin. Kung gaano siya kahirap i-impress, That's how easy it is to disappoint him.
"Look, Dad. Im sorry."
"He's right, Arky." My mom said, Sweetly.
"Kakampihan mo na naman yang anak mo! Hindi mo ba alam, Bastian?!"
"Na they could use this headline against you! Alam mo naman ang tao, Sebastian! Hindi sila mahilig magbasa!" My dad grabbed a two thousand dollar vase and threw it against the wall.
"Arky!" Galit na sita ni mama.
"Nako, Maliari... Kausapin mo yang anak mo!" And with that he stormed away.
My mom shook her head and sat next to me.
"On the bright side, Mae is back on town." I smiled.
"Really mom? Since when?"
"Yesterday morning." The door bell rang and I looked at mom.
"Speakin' of the devil, Huh?" Nakangiti kong tanong. I rushed to the door and opened it.
Tall, Mestiza and long blonde hair. Stunning, fierce eyes and a killer figure. Mae Riveria. God, Look at her.
"I didn't think Paris' top model would have time for her best friend." I said with sarcasm. She rolled her eyes.
"I'm sorry. I don't recall receiving even a single text from future mr. President." Tumawa ako.
"I've been busy. University, You know." She smiled at me.
"Well, What are you waiting for, Bucko?" She spread her arms. I quickly hugged her, Even slightly pulling her up from the ground. I heard Mae giggle.
"Excuse me, We have a house for a reason." Pagsingit ni mommy.
"Hi tita, Good evening."
"Right. After you, Madame." I winked and offered a hand. She took my hand and gracefully walked inside like our living room was the France runway.
"Tita, A dress from my recent show. It's worth millions." She handed my mother a paper bag. My mom smiled.
"Thank you, Hija."
"Can I request privacy on the pool area?" Tumaas ang kilay ni mommy.
"Privacy? My little Basti wants privacy?" I saw my cheeks turning bright red in the reflection from a vase.
"Mom..." She laughed and left us alone in the living room.
"Well, Let's go!" Masayang sabi ni Mae.
I took my shirt of and sat down, my feet on the water. Tinignan ko si Mae na umupo sa tabi ko, Already wearing swimwear.
"So you planned on going here, Already wearing a bikini?" Umirap si Mae.
"It's lingerie and it's what I have as underwear." She smiled. I laughed.
"Dont you think it's pretty, Sebastian?" She traced her finger along my throat.
I didn't wait a second for our lips to meet. A kiss sparked and it felt like home. Hungry, aggressive. Missing each other.
"It looks ravishing on you.." I whispered in between breathes.
"Good." She pulled away and looked at the pool.
"So." Tinignan ko siya.
"Hm?"
"I heard Prince Sebastian Castel has a princess." She smirked.
"What?" I asked, Laughing in disbelief.
"I read a news article about you saving this damsel in distress. They hinted a rumour that she was your girlfriend." Napailing ako.
"Seryoso? You read an article about me having a girlfriend and you believed it?" Nagkibit balikat si Mae.
"Malay ko ba. We both know you're complicated when it comes to these types of things." I rolled my eyes.
"Im complicated... Sure."
"Sebastian, Darling. Ano nga? You have a girlfriend?"
"No. Jeez. I'm way too busy." I looked at Mae. She wasnt facing me so I had a good view of her side profile.
Sharp nose and a structured face shape. The exact same reasons modeling agents and brands want her to be the face of their company.
Allison is nothing like her. That girl walks like a 6'5 feet tall man that's looking for a fight. Considering she's fucking 5'4.
My eyebrows met. Why am I comparing her to Allison? I shook my head.
"The water's warm." Suhestyon ko. Mae smiled and grabbed my arm before falling into the pool.
"Hey!" Natatawa kong sabi pagangat namin sa tubig.
We looked at each other. Eye to eye.
I lied. The pool wasn't warm. It was freezing cold. We continued to stare at each other.
"You said it was warm..." She whispered. I pulled her body closer to mine.
"We can make it warm..." Sagot ko.
This time she initiated the kiss. And who am I to complain. I pulled away to look around the pool area. The windows are shut from the inside and the sliding door that leads to the living room is covered by blinds.
"They did give us privacy." Nakangiti kong sabi.
"Tapos?" Mae ran her fingers on my chest down to my abs, Until she was fidgeting with the elastic of my shorts.
"We can do something... Private." I asnwered. She kissed me again. This time, softer. I pushed my lips harder and started to part her lips open with my tongue.
"You've had practice while Im gone?" She said in between the kiss. I looked at her and pretended to be offended.
"Im sorry, I didnt think I needed any?" She laughed.
"No, You do not." And kissed me again.
Let's just say we haven't seen each other in five months and I am not happy about it.
