CARMEN

Michelle and I texted constantly after our talk during the field trip.

We agreed na tuwing Friday, luluwas ako para sunduin siya from work so we can go out to dinner and a movie.

Minsan, sinasama namin si Zac and it was her way of reintroducing my presence to him.

Hindi naman ako nakalimutan ni Zac dahil kilala niya ako as Benji's tita.

I've been to their new apartment nang hinatid ko si Michelle.

Their new place was a two-story house but it was older than their unit in Cavite.

Sementado ang structure at gawa sa jalousy ang mga bintana.

Sa baba natutulog si Yaya Imelda sa dating storage room na converted into a bedroom at sa taas naman ang kuwarto ni Michelle at ni Zac.

May banyo sa master's bedroom which was a good thing.

Maluwag ang sala at magkasama ang kusina at dining area.

The last time I saw Zac, he was into Spider-Man.

When I visited again, nag-expand na ang interest niya dahil he was into Lego.

Nung unang pumunta ako sa kanila, he was working on the Eiffel Tower and even asked if I could help him.

Kalahati lang ang natapos namin dahil he had to go to bed by nine.

Zac made me promise to come back so we can finish the top part.

Natuwa ako when he did that.

I felt that he was okay with me spending time with him and his mom.

I have slept over at Michelle's house since then.

Nung una, I would go home kahit late na but during my third visit, Michelle offered me to stay the night.

"Are you sure?" Nakatayo kami sa tapat ng pintuan.

"Yes." Hinawakan niya ang kamay ko.

She gave me a new toothbrush and towels so I can shower.

"I don't have any clothes to change into." Sabi ko sa kanya paglabas ko ng banyo.

She was sitting on the bed, waiting for me.

Michelle wore a black sheer lace robe with matching panties and I froze.

It's been a long time since I was intimate with someone.

Seeing her with her arms stretched on the bed, legs crossed and her belly fully exposed, awakened the fire in me.

Tumayo siya at lumapit sa akin.

"Who says you're going to need clothes?" She said in a sultry voice and I swallowed.

Inalis niya ang white towel na nakabalot sa akin and let it fell on the floor.

I was buck naked and it wasn't only my body that was exposed but my raw emotions as well.

When Helene died, I didn't have any appetite for anything including sex.

Sasha even teased that I was going through a sexual drought and it doesn't look like I was planning to do anything about it.

But I wasn't interested in hookups.

My emotions went through a lot and I don't want to fall into someone else's bed just because of a physical need.

Now, with only an inch of space between us, I felt the fire in my belly rising fast.

The hot sensation spread through my legs and it was very difficult to control my raging desire.

"Michelle..." I whispered.

She was trailing her finger between the valleys of my breasts.

My breath was getting ragged and I was no longer able to think straight.

Siya naman, she looked like she was enjoying what I was feeling.

Without so much as a warning, she leaned in and captured my waiting lips.

She pushed me on the wall and the initial shock of feeling the cold concrete surface quickly disappeared when I felt the warm heat emanating from her skin.

She was as hungry as I am.

I reminded myself that we are not alone and it was a struggle because I couldn't stop myself from moaning when she nibbled the side of my neck.

When she licked the hollow below my throat, it took all my restraint not to let out a scream.

Before she could go any further, I grabbed her hair and kissed her hard on the mouth.

Her lips tasted like strawberries and it intoxicated me even more.

She pulled away from my kiss and took me to her bed.

The queen-sized mattress was soft when I sat on it.

Michelle straddled me and my hands reached up to her waist.

Her skin was soft against my hands.

She tipped my chin so I was looking straight at her.

Just like me, her eyes were wild with desire and I didn't wait any longer.

If I did, I felt I would self-combust and before that happens, I pushed her down on the bed so I was on top of her.

I ripped the lacy underwear causing her to giggle.

I pointed towards the other room, reminding her that we don't have the house to ourselves.

Sure it was past midnight already and when she checked on Zac he was fast asleep but I couldn't help but be cautious.

She covered her mouth with her hands and I busied myself with kissing her chest then her breast.

Gently pinching her erect nipples, she arched her back in pleasure.

I could feel my wetness mounting the more she moaned in satisfaction.

As much as I want to take my time, the heat that was quickly building inside me was too hard to contain.

I was a forest fire with the flames growing in intensity with every second passing by.

I pulled her panties down and parted her legs wide.

Her wetness glistened in the light.

Without second thoughts, I dove in and indulged in the heady delight before me.

It drove me out of my mind as she grasped my hair tight.

If her moans were any indication, we were on the same level when it comes to our need.

My tongue worked its way in and out and it only took a few seconds for her to come.

The restrained release turned me on even more.

I felt my wetness dripped down, the fire in my loins at a multiple alarm level.

I was glad when Michelle flipped me on my back.

There was no need for foreplay because that ship has sailed when she kissed me minutes ago.

I don't even care if she knows what she was doing as long as she gives me the release I've been waiting for.

If she was taking a cue from my heavy breathing, she was doing a very good job.

Her hands grasped my legs and parted my trimmed hair.

My mind was about to explode from the dizzying sensation.

When she licked my center, I had to bite my lower lip to stop myself from screaming.

I felt the heat escaping my body in waves.

It reminded me of the sweltering heat of April when round sweat form in my back and slowly trickle down my spine.

Michelle's tongue hungrily explored my center.

Jolts of electricity radiated from my toes surging up to my thighs only to converge in my core.

"Don't stop..." I begged as lightning flashes appeared in my vision.

I welcomed the flood of white heat and closed my eyes in pleasure.

Recurrent waves of exhilaration inundated my body and I didn't want it to stop but my body has a mind of it's own.

The waves slowed down and all the strength in my body was washed away.

Michelle slowly climbed back and lay in my arm.

I kissed her forehead, the tip of her nose and then her lips.

She moved closer, her hand resting on top of my belly.

I watched as she closed her eyes and just when I thought she was asleep, I heard her whisper.

"I'm in love with you, Carmen."
