DIANA'S POV

Franki has been updating me the entire night and I so want to reply to her but I am still disappointed with her actions this afternoon.

There's a huge possibility that she is this very attractive bi-curious girl that every gay dreads to deal with.

Those mixed signals and the sexual teasing to satisfy her straight girl ego...

Seriously, Diana? Do you really think she's that low?

Why not? The situation is too risky as well...

Aside from the screaming reality that my brother already owns her, Veronica has been asking me questions about her, as well as my closest friends. Also, she will be staying here for only half a year or less because her real home is in Australia...

Just thinking about the dreadful, impending heartbreak that will soon hit me is scaring me hardcore...

What if I would risk it all for her then I will lose my friends and my own family in the process? And also Vee...

I will lose my fallback.

Wow, fallback? How selfish of you?

Sighing, I put a mental note to hang out with her tomorrow and tell her everything. I also feel the need to make it up to her...and clear things out to her. I don't think she actually understood what I meant last time...on what I want to happen. 

I don't want to be selfish. I always want to put other people first and I don't want to disappoint and displease them as much as possible.

Especially your own family, right? And that includes your brother David, the boyfriend of the woman you are crushing hard right now...right?

Gagu talaga tong utak ko eh. (My inner thought is literally an asshole!)

But yes. I have to put more effort into holding back these threatening feelings...

What feelings?

I could have gone to Veronica's place a while ago but I don't feel like slipping out of the bed today. I feel so weary for some reasons.

I know you badly wanted to come with them but oh well, your pride says hello and fuck you!

I give my blunt thoughts an eye-roll before sliding back into the bedsheets again. It's almost midnight. I close my eyes and try my best not to think about Franki and what she could be doing right now but she's everywhere I see...even through the darkness behind my eyelids.

Malala na 'yan, Diana! (You're getting worse, Diana!)

My body slightly jerks to the sudden sound of another text notification. I turn over to the other side of the bed and reach for my phone to read it with another wave of anticipation flooding my chest. Both of my eyebrows rose when I realized that she just sent the location of the mansion.

"oops sorry! Just in case you change your mind. hehe"

Ugh.

Can she be any cuter? A smile on my lips has already appeared before I was able to stop it.

Ang rupok mo, Diana! May pa pigil-pigl ka pang nalalaman kanina!  (Why are you are so soft when it comes to her, Diana?)

Wait, should I go or what?

I did a six-minute staring contest with the ceiling while contemplating a decision.

...

Okay. I have finally decided. It's a NO for me.

I just then forced myself to open the Netflix in my phone for another distraction and while browsing for the titles, another text came in.

Squinting my eyes, I read it with a racy heartbeat this time.

"omg guess what just happened! u really have to come, Diana! I need you, pls!"

In a snap of a finger, I am already out of the bed and I so hate myself.

****

My thoughts are filled with amusing realizations as I drive with ease on the long, country road while following the GPS of the location that Franki has sent me.

I can't believe that I'm doing this. It's midnight and I am driving into this wildness...

All for my brother's girl.

Grabe lang.

I continue driving, eyes straight ahead and not minding the painful bite of the cold air on my skin.

What could have happened to her? I am again annoyed with David. He should always take care of her and make sure that she's okay all the time. What kind of boyfriend is that?

Finally, the mansion emerges into my sight, and I pulled into the circular driveway. I narrow my eyes when I spot a woman dressed in that familiar red top under the moonlight.

Even from afar, I have already recognized her. She is sitting on the ground, leaning against the base of the fountain while hugging her knees. She looks like a baby, a scared baby and I suddenly have the intense need to hug her, like right now.

Wait, has she been crying? Her slightly puffy eyes seem to glisten with tears from the distance. Her face brightens up as she rises while flinging her arms around to catch my attention.

I hurriedly stop the motorcycle right in front of her. I am taken aback when she charges toward me as soon as I remove my helmet.

"Diana!!!"

I feel my tummy flipping at the tone of yearning in her voice as she called my name. I bend my knees to accommodate her smaller, fragile form into my arms and we both pulled each other into a tight embrace.

"I can't believe you really came for me! You're the only one who understands me!" she cries out in her fast, mumbling accent and for a split second, she is now bawling into an unbroken stream against my neck. My arms tighten around her as the other hand reaches up to her hair to give it some gentle, comforting strokes.

"Ohh...Why are you crying?" I ask while realizing that I never been worried like this before. She just answered me with a louder sob. I grip both of her arms and pull her away from me for a second to look at her in the eyes.

"I can't believe you're crying. Why, what happened? Did they do anything to you?"

She is still beautiful when she cries but it crushes my heart to see her like this.

I stick my thumbs out to wipe the tears away from under her eyes. "Sorry I got late... I also don't have a load to reply. I think Smart is currently having some issues."

I feel really bad for not replying to her. I totally regret it and yeah, fuck you too, pride!

"I so regret coming with him, Diana! Those girls and that—that guy...t-they were all over me and things got really weird!" she tells me in a baby kind of way and I suddenly feel the need to pinch her cheeks.

Why am I not surprised? I mean, who will not be attracted to her?!

"It's okay Franki. I'm here..." I pull her closer to kiss her forehead. I always feel this need to kiss her on that spot. I am then surprised when she hugs me again, even tighter this time she gave me a hard time breathing.

I don't want to assume or anything but the way she hugged me is so raw and emotional...

I can feel her body shaking, but not from crying this time. Her top is kind of revealing and it is cold out here. I immediately take my denim jacket off, leaving myself with my black shirt then proceed to help her wear it.

"Hush now, I'm here..."

She is just looking at me as if lending her my jacket is the most ridiculous thing that I have ever done.

"You look like you need it more..." I explain while smiling.

"You're the sweetest," she says in a cracked voice before urging me to leave with a pull in my hand. "We have to leave now before they see us,"

"Where do you want to go?"

"Anywhere. Take me anywhere, Diana." There's a command in her voice and it got my heartbeat racing again.

Really? Anywhere?

I raise my eyebrow as I momentarily ponder at her answer.

"Are you sure?"

"I don't care as long as you're with me..."

I press my lips inwardly as I try my best to contain my excitement. Ugh. I am so damn serious in wanting to stop these feelings but she is so not helping me...

"You ready, Franki?"

"I'm ready...Diana." she lets out a happy squeal when I finally dash away from the mansion that she apparently got so apprehensive with.

I try my best to focus on the road as I lean forward and drive but the feeling of having your beautiful crush pressed tightly against you from behind is so...I can't think of a word that can describe it at this moment, actually. My mind is just totally blank and floating in roses right now.

I love the way her slender finger curl along the hem of my shirt as she holds onto me tight and the way she presses her cheek against my back. I so love the way her warmth replaces the coldness of the breeze that bites into my skin and the way she secures her arms around me as if losing me is the last thing that she wants to happen in this world.

I so don't want this moment to end so bad...

A drop of water from the night sky has slapped me out of my lesbian fantasy. And then another drop, a bigger one this time splats on my forehead and trickles down my left eye.

"Shit! Is it raining!?" I look up at the sky and becomes even tenser when it is now overhung with a blanket of grey. I then give Franki a brief glance from behind me, silently praying that this will stop because she is afraid of thunder and lightning.

"Oh my gosh, it is! What to do now? I hope it won't get harder!" she starts to panic.

A few moments later and what I have been worrying about finally happened. It is actually raining, like raining really hard that I have to open my eyes wide to carefully see the road that is now slightly fogged by the essence of the raindrops dropping hard on the ground.

"We have to get to the nearest town!" I exclaim with the intent of pacifying her because she is literally shivering from behind me while whimpering with fear.

Thunder starts to roar from above us and a flash of long and prominent lightning strikes across the sky. Could this get any worse?

"Fuckkk! I'm scared, Diana!!!"

"Don't worry, Franki! All I can do is keep driving!"

Everything about us is so wet right now; clothes soaked and skin damp with the rain. I am even more determined to reach the nearest town right now.

I have no choice but to step harder and speed up along the slippery road that is now oozing with the wet ground smell.

"Hold on tight, Franki! I'm going faster. This is going to be dangerous, but I just need you to trust me,"

"I do, Diana. I really do..." The sudden braveness in her voice has caused a determined smile on my lips as I shoot forward with even more focused eyes through the thick rain.

****

The rain somehow slowed down when I finally reach the next town minutes later.

"Oh my God, look, look, look, Diana! Look! A motel!" Franki points out an old looking motel in the side of the road a few meters ahead with the flickering sign that reads HANSAM MOTEL in purple neon lights. Ah, thank God it is working and open!

I immediately head straight towards it and pull up into the gravelly driveway.

I then help Franki go down the motorcycle under the rain. She takes my denim jacket off her body and we made it a cover to our head and as we sprint our way to the entrance as fast as we can, I just find myself chuckling at the sound of her girlish, husky squeals. It's not a joke to wear heels as we run on this muddy ground, you know.

Both soaking wet, we start to mess up the red-carpeted floor and head to the small reception area.

The lady in her black-rimmed glasses sitting behind it immediately springs up from her seat and shoots us a worried look. She starts asking me questions in Tagalog and I briefly tell her our current situation while Franki is making herself comfortable in her favorite spot on my back.

The woman asks me to log in after a few inquiries and I hurriedly scribble both of our names into the logbook. Judging from the list, they don't get a lot of visitors here. I'm not surprised because this is just a small province but I am very thankful that this is immediately visible on the roadside. They don't have Wi-fi here but at least they got a signal. I won't be needing that anyway whenever I'm with this cutie-pie who is still hiding behind me.

Jowa before the internet, right Diana?

Hasna, who I learned is actually the owner and manager of this small motel finally brings us to our room.

"If you need anything more, please don't hesitate to give me a ring at the reception. I'll try my best to provide." she hands me two white bath towels with a smile.

"Salamat...po. (Thank you.)" There goes Franki's soft and cute Tagalog accent from behind me.

"Thank you so much, Hasna." I give her a grateful smile before finally closing the door.

I so want to ask her if she has any extra clothes out there but I don't know why my mouth didn't cooperate with me...

"It was so messed-up, I can't believe it! It was so dangerous but good thing you're a very good driver, Diana! Oh my gosh..." she starts to speak while hugging herself as she walks around the small room.

I move closer to her, grip both of her shoulders and look at her straight in the eyes. "Franki, Franki...Relax. Relax...We're fine now. Everything's fine now..."

She is just pressing both of her hands on her cheeks as she tries to calm herself. "That was so close, you know!" she drops down to sit on the edge of the bed and I follow after her.

I heave a deep sigh when I notice that she really looks like a wet, adorable kitty with that pouty lips of her.

"You are so wet..."

"Hmm?" she is visibly caught off-guard in a second but I am overtaken by concern at the moment.

"I don't want you to get sick again. You have to remove all your clothes, Franki. Mahirap na't magka-pneumonia ka pa. (I don't want you to catch pneumonia)." I say while I start to lovingly dry her hair and neck with the white towel like she's my baby.

I am focused on drying her skin out as much as possible and when my eyes return to her beautiful face, it is now replaced with a calm yet intense look. A red tinge creeps across my cheeks when I realize that she is just staring at me the whole time. Her gaze is burning me and my heartbeat starts to hammer against my chest when I notice her gaze dropping down my lips with desire.

It's just then the sound of rain pouring hard against the roof and my panicking heartbeat.

"You have to...remove your clothes now," I tell her in my soft voice while trying my very best to avoid her eyes. The palpable tension between us increases on my side because of her audible breathing that reaches on my skin, warming me all over in the process.

"Okay..." she answers in a very Australian accent, eyes still fixed on me. Why do I have this feeling that she wants me to make the first move?

Ugh, the pressure is on.

I then lean away from her and head to the window, feeling claustrophobic all of a sudden. I just need air to properly breathe...some air that is not from her personal space.

I can still feel her eyes on me when I part the slightly dusty, white curtain. The thunder keeps on erupting and the lighting could be seen within the massive grayish-black sky through the glass.

"You have to remove yours too," she mumbles under her breath, which sounds calmer this time.

"Yeah, I will, of course," I answer while facing her, trying my best to sound casual but I think I have already died from the inside.

She crosses her arms in front of her, hands reaching for the hem of her top and I immediately turn away from her on reflex when she slips it out of her body.

Oh my God, Oh my God, Oh my God...What to do?! Is this finally the moment? Is this really is it?

I suddenly had a hard time breathing while knowing that she is stripping her clothes off behind me.

I feel like the time stopped working all of a sudden because seconds seem to be like hours. I am just stiffly standing here while acting like I am immensely intrigued by the small crack in the window.

"Diana..." she calls out after a few moments.

"Yes?" I think I haven't able to suppress the shakiness in that tone.

"You can turn around now," she says with a giggle.

That giggle...she fucking knows what's up with me. Ugh. What to do???

My breathing normalizes when I finally turn around to see her wrapped in the white towel with her wet hair slipped back in a very attractive way. Maybe that single stray strand falling down the side of her forehead helped.

"Your turn," she urges me with one corner of her lips tugged up into an unreadable smile.

"Sure. Gimme your clothes, I'll be hanging it inside the bathroom." I casually answer, trying my best to avoid her subtle flirting even though I am already wet as fuck.

With quick movements, I take her wet clothes with me and rush inside the bathroom.

I calm myself down when I finally lock myself inside. I squeeze the water out of our clothes and hang them properly along the metal bar attached on the wall. Just when I finished removing my clothes and wrapped myself with this white towel, the lights suddenly shut off and Franki's ear-piercing scream fills the room from the outside.

I blindly search for the doorknob and rush outside to be with her.

"Diana! Oh my God, Diana!" she cries out while we both look for each other.

"Franki!!! Where are you?! Oh my God, I can't see anything!" I utter with anxiousness as we continue to search for each other while following the sound of each other's voice.

I gasp when I felt her hand touching me. She then immediately pushes me against the wall and presses her body against mine while shaking in fear. I then hug her back while we both embrace the blinding darkness.

"Oh my God, Diana! It's so dark I'm afraid what's gonna happen! What if something long and scary would grab me?!" (Trivia: She said this from the Asylum vlog when the lights were shut off lol)

And the overthinker award goes to...

I just chuckled at what she just said in her fast, panicky, and incomprehensible words. Can she be any more adorable?

My chuckling stops when she again buries her face on my neck while breathing hard and fast. Her warm breath is kind of tickling me. I just then realized that she becomes quiet now and that only our white towels are separating our naked bodies...

Fuck. Naked bodies...

I repeat, Frances Margaret and I are both naked next to each other with only our towels in between...

I can feel her looking up at me as she breathes, prompting me to bite my lower lip and hold my breath.

Oh gosh, our lips are just so close to each other...

So damn close...

Her hand starts to move from my waist to my thigh, and mine from her back to her hair to flip it away from her neck. Her knees then move between mine and I bite my lip in the anticipation as I part them to accommodate hers.

Slowly, teasingly, our hands start to explore each other's body through the towel in this silent but overflowing tension.

Loud heart beats, warm breaths, and raindrops outside start to fuse into one...

My nose finally found her jaw, and when I am about to reach for lips, the lights suddenly opened again and I immediately stepped away from her like I just got burned really hard.

"Whoa, thank God!" I exclaim in relief...or is it disappointment? I am panting, looking flushed and sweaty as I head over to the phone while she is just standing still while wearing her serious expression.

"I'll call Hasna and ask her about what happened," I proceed to dial the operator number but then literally froze from where I am standing when I heard her stern voice.

"Turn around, Diana."

Uh-oh...

I feel like my heart will burst out from my chest right now.

Is she naked now???

I wish my insides would calm the fuck out as her possible images behind me start to play in my head. With a hammering heartbeat, I inhale a sharp amount of air and slowly turn to see her.

I slowly breathe out to see that she's just standing there next to the bed while piercing me with her beautiful, lustful eyes. She has one hand on the knot of her towel on her chest and my eyes linger on it for a few seconds. A huge part of me is wishing that she would just release it and be naked.

And she did.

While giving me her sexiest eye contact yet.

FUCK.

(Please play the song attached above from here. That version of the song. If it cannot be played, find another way. Trust me. lol.)

The soft yet deafening sound of the wet, soaked towel dropping on the floor made my lips part in indescribable awe.

"Do you like it?" she asks again in her usual, husky accent, and I think I'm dead now. I just find myself gently nodding my head as I rake her form, her beautiful form that is just...

Ah, no words can describe how perfect it is; The broad shoulders, the full, round breasts, the toned stomach, the wide hips and...

God. She has the right curves in the right places. Her eyes glint with triumph and I know the reason why. The lust and admiration in my eyes are screaming at her, definitely.

She sensually bites her lower lip in anticipation when I start moving closer to her...And closer, my eyes not leaving hers.

I want to tell her something, tell her how beautiful and raw she is and how breathtaking she looks, but I just can't force my mouth to speak. I am totally out of words.

Finally removing the space between us, my hands then snake around her back, pulling her naked form tight against mine as I feel the muscles deep within my tummy clenched in arousal.

I weave one hand through her hair, tugging on it slightly to tilt her head for a better angle and finally claim her mouth with my tongue as if it's mine. She takes a sharp intake of breath as she closes her eyes and kisses me back, so sweet and so wild at the same time.

I run my hand over her smooth, glassy skin while hers is trying to reach for my behind. Out of breath now, I release her mouth and instead bit lightly on her plumper bottom lip, nibbling slightly while I watch how her beautiful eyes flutter in response.

I bend my knees and angle my head down to trail lust-filled kisses along her jaw, then down to her neck, my both hands squeezing her breasts on the process.

She is about to remove the knot of my towel but then gasps when I suddenly drop down to my knees and grip both of her thighs apart. I take a deep intake of breath when my nose and mouth finally meet her.

She is so wet and hot and sweet...

"Fucckkk..." she moans out in a breathy sound at the unexpected contact of my mouth on her. She then drops her head back as she calls out my name,

"Diana..."

I smirk against her wetness while my eyes shoot up to watch her reactions. I hook both of my arms around her thighs, locking and securing her in place as she can barely stand right now from shaking in arousal.

I feel her fingers mashing into my hair, her hand twisting into a fist as she urges me to do it harder than what I already am doing.

"I-I...Diana...Ah, fuccckk!" She is now in a frenzy as I press my nose against her shaved mound and work my tongue harder, her stomach clenching uncontrollably but I don't have mercy right now.

"Get up, get up...Diana. Stop! Oh, God!" Her body is arching forward with her mouth in an "o" with overflowing pleasure.

I immediately oblige but only to push her back on the bed, finally, this time, and move on top of her to kiss her on her lips even more passionately this time.

"Oh my gosh that was so good!" she moans into my mouth as we kiss.

She continues to kiss me back with equal passion while wrapping her thighs tightly around my hips. My lips teasingly trail down to her neck and down to her breast with one hand fondling the other. She hisses in pleasure when I take one nipple into my mouth and gives it a gentle suck while I lock my eyes up at hers.

My other hand reaches down to rub her wetness, to tease her more and drive her insane. I am so determined to make her crazy tonight, crazy enough that she will have no choice but to be mine.

Yes. This fucking hot and gorgeous baby should be mine.
