Song: One- Ed Sheeran

Last name

Natulala ako kay Jaxon nang sabihin niya iyon. Fiancée? Me? Since when?

Ni hindi nga siya nagpopropose!

"But... Where is the ring?" Jaxon's mother asked. Bumaba ang tingin niya sa aking mga daliri. Ganoon rin ang ginawa ko.

Oonga! Where is the damn ring?!

Jaxon's father leaned in a little to whisper something on his wife's ear. Nanlaki naman ang mga mata ng mommy ni Jaxon sa sinabi ng kanyang asawa.

"Oh! Right! She is! You're my son's fiancée! Gosh! I almost forgot about that!" Hinila niya ako palapit sakanya para mayakap. "Sorry, hija. Kapag matanda na talaga makakalimutin na."

Bahagya akong tumawa pero nagugulohan parin ako. What the hell is this?

Nilingon ko si Jaxon at nagugulohan siyang tiningnan. He's got the same expression, dull and serious. Binaba niya ang tingin sa akin at ngumisi.

"What the hell is this?" I hissed at him. Tumingin naman ang mag-asawa sa amin kaya ngumiti ako.

"Sorry, anak, at nakalimutan ko... Napakadami kasing ganap ngayon. Next week ay birthday mo na tapos naengage ka pa!" Jaxon's mother sighed. Tumawa naman ang asawa nito.

She pulled me in for a hug again at hinalikan ako sa pisngi.

His birthday is next week? Why didn't I know about that? Gosh! Ang dami ko pa talagang hindi alam tungkol sakanya!

"Naku! Hindi naman sinabi sa amin nito ni Jaxon na you blossomed into such a fine lady! Sigurado ako kapag nagkaanak kayo ay sobrang ganda at gwapo!" His mom giggled. Nahihiya naman akong tumawa.

Tiningnan ko si Kiel na mukhang natutuwa naman sa nangyari. No wonder why he wanted to call me his sister-in-law!

If I'm really his fiancée... Kailan pa kami naengage? Alam ba ito ng magulang ko? The hell! I'm so confused!

"Congratulations!" Galak na galak na ngumiti sa amin ang magulang niya.

Pilit naman akong ngumiti kahit na gulong-gulo na ako. Nilingon ko muli si Jaxon na nakangisi parin hanggang ngayon.

Medyo kinausap pa ako ng matagal ng magulang ni Jaxon. They asked me about myself. What's my profession. Ganito... Ganyan... Something that Jaxon and I weren't able to do. I still don't know much about him and now he's calling me his fiancée?!

When I excused myself ay kasama kong hinila paalis si Jaxon. Dinala ko siya sa CR. Sinigurado ko na munang walang tao rito bago ko ito nilock.

"What the hell was that?!" Agad kong tinanong sakanya.

"What?" Natatawa niyang tinanong.

"Me... Your fiancée?! Since when?!"

"Bakit? Ayaw mo bang makasal sa akin?"

Hindi agad ako nakasagot. Of course, I want to! Kahit noon pa man!

"I... I... Of course, I want to!"

"Then why do you sound like you don't want to?"

I tried to calm myself para hindi siya maghinala sa akin. I sighed heavily at pinagpatuloy na ang pagtatanong sakanya ng mas kalmado na.

"Bakit hindi ko alam na engaged na tayo?"

Nagkibit siya ng balikat at isinandal ang sarili sa pader. He crossed his arms and stared seriously at me.

"You'll know later," simple niyang sagot. Umirap naman ako.

"And next week is your birthday! Hindi mo man lang sinabi sa akin!" I pouted. He should've told me! It's important! 'Yun ang first birthday niya na kasama ako!

"It's not that important."

"Anong it's not!? It is!" umirap ulit ako.

"Seriously."

"Seriously din!"

Pagkatapos niya akong gulatin about sa "engagement" namin, sasabihin niyang hindi naman ganon kaimportante ang birthday niya? Is he crazy?!

Naging tahimik ang paligid. Nanatili lang akong nakasimangot habang siya naman ay mukhang natutuwa sa nangyayari. I'm still so confused! Ang alam ko lang in a relationship lang kami. Pero engaged?! Seryoso ba 'yun!?

"What do you want for your birthday?" ngumuso ako at nagiwas ng tingin.

It's rude that I won't give him anything on his special day! I'm his "fiancée". I should at least give him something.

Hinayaan ko siyang mag-isip ng gusto niya. I was serious about giving him a present kahit ba mahirap hanapin! Ngumisi naman siya nang maisip na niya ang gusto niya. Nilingon ko siya. He chuckled lightly. Kumunot ang noo ko.

What's so funny?

"I want something that's hot... and sexy," he whispered sexily. My eyes immediately widened. I gulped nervously.

"You." He added.

My mouth parted and I immediately blushed. Niliitan ko siya ng mata tila ba tinatansya siya. I waited for him to tell me that it was just a joke pero hindi. Mukhang seryoso talaga siya.

Is he seriously asking me for a birthday sex? Damn him!

Nahihiya akong nag-iwas ng tingin. My heart is pounding like crazy! Sobra niya akong binibigla sa isang gabi! Kanina, he told his parents that I was his fiancée... Tapos, nalaman ko rin na birthday niya na next week. Tapos ngayon, he wants sex as a present from me!

Goodness! I don't know how to handle this!

"Are you... serious?"

"Yes," agaran niyang sagot.

"I-I-I mean... W-When?" pagkatapos kong itanong iyon ay parang gusto ko nalang magpakain sa lupa! Damn it! Why did I even ask that?!

"Now." Agad na napaangat ang tingin ko sakanya. He's really serious about this! I can't see any humor in his voice or even in his eyes!

"Now..." I nervously laughed. "As in right now?"

"As in right now." Ulit niya. Napakamot ako ng noo.

This is too much to handle! Good Lord help me!

"Inside the comfort room?" tumango siya. "How!?"

He removed himself from leaning against the wall. He's still crossing his arms. His eyes roamed around the comfort room. Finding ways on how to do me.

"You can bend over the bowl." Aniya. My eyes widened. Nandidiri ko siyang tiningnan.

"Yuck! It's dirty!"

"You can bend over the sink."

I look over the sink. It has a huge mirror attached in it. If he's going to do me there... kitang kita namin ang sarili namin habang ginagawa iyon.

"You know what?! No one's bending over!" sabi ko at tsaka tumalikod. I tried to fanned myself. Bakit biglang naging mainit ang pakiramdam ko? Ramdam ko ang lamig kanina ah?

"Are you... really serious?" humarap muli ako at nagtataka siyang tiningnan.

"If you don't want to do it, it's fine. I won't force you."

"No!" agap ko. Ngumisi naman siya. "It's okay... It's okay."

"I'm just really surprised." Dagdag ko. I closed my eyes.

Get yourself together, Margaux.

I mentally motivated myself that I can do it. I tried to calm myself, too. Kanina pa ako nanginginig dahil sa sobrang gulat.

When I opened my eyes ay tiningnan ko siya. His expression is still the same. There's a ghost smile on his lips and his eyes are burning with desire. Ako naman ang ngumisi ngayon. Seeing that he really wants it right now, makes me want to want it so much, too.

"You know what? I want to do you so much right now either."

He bit his lip because of it. Lumapit siya sa akin. Napaatras naman ako hanggang sa naramdaman ko na ang malamig na pader. He closed the distance between us.

"Thank god you feel the same." He whispered then he crashed his lips into mine. I immediately gave him the access to conquer my mouth.

Masyadong mabilis ang nangyari. Hindi ko alam kung paano kami napunta sa sink at kung paano ako napasandal doon. He inserted his hand on my chest and he started caressing it. Napakagat nalang ako ng aking labi nang sinimulan niya akong halikan sa aking leeg.

His lips found mine again. His kisses are so hard and deep. Napahawak ako sa kanyang balikat bilang suporta. I helped him remove his coat.

Naalala ko pa nung unang beses namin itong ginawa. I was the one who initiated that time at ngayon naman, he was asking this as a birthday gift from me! Look how fast things have changed!

His hand traveled down my back hanggang sa nahanap niya ang zipper ng dress na suot ko. Lumiyad ako para mas maibaba niya iyon ng maayos. I'm not wearing a bra underneath this dress. Kaya kung ibababa niya na ito ngayon, he can see my chest completely.

Pero hindi niya ginawa iyon. He only unzipped it pero hindi niya tinanggal ang dress sa katawan ko. I don't know if I should be disappointed or not. I feel like he doesn't want to see me naked.

I was distracted by my own thoughts when he started to bend down a little until he kneeled in front of me. Given that he's really tall, his head immediately leveled with my thighs. Parang alam ko na ang gagawin niya.

Tumingala siya sa akin. His eyes bore into me intensely. He slowly removed my panty at marahang hinawi ang dress ko.

"There's no backing out now." Aniya bago niya tuluyang gawin sa akin iyon.

He opened the folds between my legs and his tongue immediately delved in it. I closed my eyes and bit my lip. I can almost taste blood dahil sa sobrang riin ng pagkakakagat ko dito. Iba't ibang klaseng sensasyon ang ibinibigay ng ginagawa niya sa akin ngayon.

"Jaxon..." I called.

Hindi siya tumigil sa ginagawa. He flicked his tongue against my bud. He continued doing it until I heard myself moaning his name. Sandali siyang tumigil at naramdaman ko namang napangiti siya sa narinig.

"Damn," I heard him whispered at tinuloy na ang ginagawa. Nagpatuloy ako sa pagdaing. I heard him chuckled.

"Why are you... laughing?" I asked, nahihirapang imulat ang mga mata. Ramdam na ramdam ko parin ang kanina niyang ginagawa kahit na sandali siyang tumigil.

"You're liking it so much."

"Y-Yeah," I admitted. "That's why you s-shouldn't stop."

Dahil sundalo siya, mabilis niyang sinunod ang sinabi ko. He continued what he's doing. Napahawak ako sa kanyang buhok at minsan ay napapasabunot pa ako rito. Natigil lang ulit siya sa ginagawa when we heard someone trying to open the door. Agad akong nabaling doon.

"It's locked." Narinig kong sinabi ng taong nasa labas.

"Baka may tao."

Kumatok sila. I panicked. Pero nanatili paring seryosong nakatingin sa akin si Jaxon. Parang hindi siya nababahala na maaaring makita kami rito.

"I think this is not the right place." Sabi ko.

Tumayo siya at inilagay naman ang makabilang kamay sa gilid ko. Imprisoning me inside his arms. His lustful eyes bore into me intensely. Hindi nasatisfy na hindi namin natapos ang ginagawa.

"Wala naman atang tao, e. Tumawag na kayo ng personnel at ipabuksan niyo ito." Dagdag ng nasa labas.

Inilapit naman ni Jaxon ang kanyang mukha sa akin hanggang sa maabot nito ang aking tainga.

"Just so you know... we are not done yet," he whispered sexily in my ear which causes me to bit my lip again.

Nilingon niya ako. Tila ba naputol ang kanyang pasensya nang makita ang ginawa ko. He pressed his lips on the back of my ear and started kissing it. Walang pakialam kahit na may taong nasa labas, naghihintay na buksan namin ang pinto.

His lips traveled down my neck and he sucked on it.

"Jaxon... the people... outside." Sabi ko sa gitna ng pagdaing.

"Hayaan mo sila,"

Natawa nalang ako sa sinabi niya at hinayaan siyang magpatuloy sa ginagawa. His lips finally found mine. His hand grabbed my jaws so he can kiss me harder and deeply. His tongue is doing wanders inside my mouth.

I tried listening to the people outside again. Pero mukhang wala na sila doon. Hinawakan ko naman si Jaxon sa kanyang panga at mas nilaliman pa ang halik sakanya.

Mamaya maya pa ay narinig namin ang ingay ng mga susi. Parehas kaming napatigil sa ginagawa. Tinulungan niya naman akong makababa sa sink. He helped me put my panties back on. He also helped me zip my dress back up.

Hinila niya ako papasok ng isang cubicle at sinarado iyon. Isinandal niya ako doon at tinakpan ang aking bibig nang natawa ako. He smiled, too. Pero pinakinggan lang ang pagbukas ng pinto.

"Oh! Wala palang tao, e. Kanina pa ako ihing-ihi, e."

Pinigilan ko ang matawa. I can't believe we're doing this!

"This has to have a continuation." He whispered. Wala akong nagawa kundi ang tumango.

Sinigurado kong maayos ang itsura ko nang lumabas ako. I checked myself in the mirror. My cheeks are so flushed. After sex glow?

I tried to stand up straight kahit na medyo nanghihina parin ang aking binti dahil sa ginawa ni Jaxon sa akin kanina. Hindi ko inakala na kaya niyang gawin ang ganong bagay!

He snaked his arm around my waist at iginiya ako sa aming table. Napabaling naman sa amin ang mga kapatid ko. Ngumiti si Felicity sa amin.

"Hello, Captain!" bati nito. Ngumiti naman si Jaxon at inilahad na sa akin ang upuan.

"I'll see you later." He whispered before he left para magtungo sa kanilang table.

I sighed heavily at inayos ang aking buhok. Nanatili namang nakatingin sa akin si Dominic. Nilingon ko siya at nagtatakang tiningnan.

"Ang tagal mong nawala," may bahid ng panghihinala ang kanyang boses.

"Marami lang kaming napagkwentuhan ng magulang ni Jaxon."

Dominic bought that lame excuse at itinuon nalang muli ang atensyon sa programa. Pinigilan ko naman ang aking ngiti nang mahagip ko ang tingin ni Jaxon.

The programme went on and on hanggang sa bigla nalang ipinatawag si Jaxon sa harap.

"I believe the current Captain of the Philippine Army has something to announce." Ani ng emcee.

Inayos ko naman ang upo ko at binigay ang buong atensyon sa harap. Tumayo si Jaxon at nagtungo sa harap. Everyone clapped kaya ganon rin ang ginawa ko. I look over to his parents who seems to be anticipating for what will happen. Nagtataka naman ako. Ano bang meron?

Nilingon ko muli siya. He inserted his hand inside his pocket at parang may ginagalaw doon. Kumunot naman ang noo ko. Umayos ako ng pagkakaupo nang magsimula na siyang magsalita. Nawala lang ang focus ko sa programma nang may lumapit sa akin na isa sa mga organizers.

"Ma'am, can we borrow you for a second?"

Noong una ay nagugulohan pa ako ngunit nang mapansin ko namang mukhang kailangan nga nila ako ay sumama ako. Thinking it was an emergency. Baka may nasugatan dito o ano. Pero dinala niya ako sa harap ng entablado. Sa tabi ni Jaxon. I awkwardly stood there while Jaxon continued speaking.

Bigla akong nakaramdam ng kaba nang humarap siya sa akin. Napansin kong may kinuha siya sa kanyang bulsa pero hindi ko na masyadong nakita iyon. Tiningnan ko siya sa kanyang mga mata.

"What is this?" I nervously asked.

"You'll understand it by now." He whispered at me. Bumaling naman muli siya sa harap. "A while ago she was asking me about when did we even got engaged when I introduced her as my fiancée to my parents. And I'd say... now," My eyes widened. "Don't worry your parents already knows."

Agad ko namang nilingon ang mga magulang ko. My mom started crying and my dad looks genuinely happy. Oh my god! Is he... proposing to me now?

He slowly bended down on one knee in front of me. I put my hands over my mouth dahil sa gulat. Tears immediately pooled my eyes. Kahit na sinabi niya na sa akin na engaged na kami ay hindi ko parin maiwasan na magulat. I was expecting that there will be no proposal for us!

He's really full of surprises.

I heard everyone gasp nang tuluyan nang lumuhod sa harap ko si Jaxon. Agad rin naman kaming pinagkukuhanan ng mga litrato.

"Will you spend the rest of your life with me, baby?" he asks. I think he already knows the answer to that.

Inangat ko ang aking mga daliri upang tingnan ang singsing na ibinigay niya para sa akin. It's a french paved diamond. It perfectly fits my ring finger. I don't know how he managed to know the size of my finger.

"You know... I'm choosing between a beach wedding or a church wedding." Sabi ko.

Pinagpatuloy niya naman ang paghalik sa aking balikat at leeg. Napapadaing ako minsan pero desidido akong sabihin sakanya ang mga balak ko para sa kasal namin.

We are currently inside his bathroom. On his bathtub that is full of bubbles and the both of us are naked. Today is his birthday. His parents invited me over for dinner at napagdesisyonan ko na rin na dito matulog. Maganda ang kanilang bahay. Modern looking at punong-puno ng mga gantimpala na kanilang natamo.

I was surprised to see a bathtub inside his bathroom. Hindi ko akalain na ang isang kagaya niya ay may ganito sa loob ng kanyang kwarto.

"Kung church wedding... I don't want you to wear a black tux,"

"Hmmm?" pinagpatuloy niya ang paghalik sa aking leeg. His arm is around my chest and is caressing my breasts lightly.

"You will look like a bodyguard," he chuckled at hindi parin tumigil sa ginagawa. "I'm sorry but it's true. That's why if we're going to have a wedding in church, I want you to wear a white tux."

Inimagine ko agad siya na suot iyon. He looks dazzling on it!

"Or... m-maroon!" tinagilid ko ang ulo ko to give him access on my neck. "Or t-taupe."

"Hmmm..." he licked my neck. Lumipat naman ang kanyang labi sa aking balikat. He's kissing every part of me tenderly. Ang mga kamay ko naman ay nakahawak sa kanyang mga binti at hinahagod ito.

"Sa beach wedding naman... I want you to go simple. A cream-colored tux will look so perfect on you!" naexcite ako bigla dahil sa naisip. I imagined him wearing a cream-colored tux.

Goddamn! It's perfect!

Sinabi ko sakanya ang mga gusto ko para sa kasal namin. I told him what I want pag beach wedding or kung church wedding naman. But I feel like he's not listening! Hindi siya tumitigil sa ginagawa niya!

He's too preoccupied with what he's doing!

"Hey! Are you even listening?"

"Uh-huh..."

Hinarap ko siya kaya siya natigil sa ginagawa niya.

"You're not listening." I pouted. Jaxon caressed my cheeks lightly.

"I am."

"You're not." I glared at him pero agad rin namang naglaho iyon nang pinatakan niya ako ng halik sa aking labi.

"You want me to wear a white or maroon or taupe colored tux if our wedding will be in church. Cream colored naman for beach wedding."

Pinagpatuloy niya ang pag-ulit sa mga sinabi ko tungkol sa gusto ko sa magiging kasal namin. I smiled when he finished.

"Baby, I told you I'm listening." he said softly. Napangiti naman ako. "You can continue so I can take note of everything."

Umiling naman ako kaya niliitan niya ako ng mata.

"That's all I want." sabi ko. Bumaba naman ang tingin ko sa kanyang dibdib. My eyes widened when I saw a tattoo on his left chest, katapat kung nasaan ang puso niya.

"You have a tattoo." napatingin rin siya dito at tumango.

His tattoo says "MG" hindi ko alam kung ano ba ang ibig sabihin niya doon.

"What's behind it?" tanong ko. Pinasadahan ko naman ng aking daliri ang kanyang tattoo. His grip tightened. He pressed a soft kiss on my shoulder and rested his chin on it.

"Your name initials..." he whispered, then he pressed another kiss on my shoulder.

Tinaasan ko siya ng kilay. Oh, why didn't I realize that? He's right! MG stands for my name! Mari Gauxiena!

Gosh, sobrang tanga ko na ba para hindi ko marealize iyon?

I smirked. "You're that obsessed with me, huh?"

Tiningala niya ako. He quickly captured my lips.

"Obsessively and crazy in love with you..." mas lumaki ang ngiti ko sa sinabi niya.

Oh my! What did I do to deserve him? I feel so blessed! 

"What do you want to do now?" He asked.

I look at him sweetly. I bit my lip nang may naalala ako. There's something we weren't able to finish last week. Inalis niya ang pagkakakagat ko sa aking labi. He smirked. I think he already knows what I want to do now.

"Let's finish what we started."

Sa tingin ko ay tama lang rin 'to. We're already naked. Hindi na kami mahihirapan pa na tanggalin ang damit namin.

Inayos ko ang aking sarili so I can move on top of him. Agad niya namang inalagay ang kanyang kamay sa aking baywang. Tiningala niya ako. I grabbed my hair and put it on one side. Binaba ko ang aking sarili hanggang sa maabot ko na ang kanyang labi. I attacked his lips with sweet and hot kisses.

"On this bathtub?" I asked when I stopped kissing him. Umiling naman siya at inayos ang sarili.

"No," he said. "On my bed."

Sa isang iglap ay nadala niya na ako sa kanyang kama. He's immediately on top of me and he didn't wait for another second before he crashed his lips into mine.

"Nababasa ang kama mo..."

"I don't mind."

His hand started doing wonders over my body. He's touching me like he wanted to trace every single detail that my body has.

"I love you so much, Jaxon..." I whispered and that causes him to lose his sanity. Hindi naman niya ako binalaan sa biglaan niyang galaw.

He used his tongue to tease me at halos mabaliw na ako nang ginawa niya iyon. By instinct, napasabunot ako sa kanyang buhok habang ginagawa niya iyon.

He continued to give me wet, wild and hot kisses as he started grinding against my body. Agad kong naramdaman ang libo-libong sensasyon na siya lang ang may kakayahan na gumawa noon.

"I can't wait to marry you..." he whispered. Ngumiti naman ako at napansin kong umangat ang gilid ng kanyang labi. Umiling siya, tila ba hindi makapaniwala sa nangyayari. He bit his lip to stop himself pero mukhang hindi niya kayang magpigil ngayon.

"I am so in love with you, Margaux. Ever since you walked through that door, I knew..." kumunot ang noo ko. Hinaplos ko naman ang kanyang pisngi habang hinihintay siyang magpatuloy. He licked his lips, pinagiisipan mabuti ang kanyang sasabihin.

"The first time I saw you was way back 2009. At the formal party. You were wearing a black dress and you entered the room with a medical book in your arms," he chuckled.

Nagulat ako sa sinabi niya. I can clearly remember that day. Pero hindi ko matandaan na nakita ko siya doon. He was there?! How come I didn't notice him?

"That was the year you took the licensure exam." Dagdag niya.

"How... did you know?"

Nagtataka talaga ako kung pano niya nalaman iyon. It's true... I took the licensure exam in 2009. But how did he know? Tatlong taon ang nakalipas bago ko siya nameet personally. Dahil iyon sa misyon sa Afghanistan. At sa taong 2009, wala akong maalala na nakita ko na siya.

Is this fate trying to play with us?

"I told you I have my ways." He smirked.

Lagi nalang siyang ganyan. Every time he will mention things about me that I don't remember telling him, ganito ang lagi niyang isasagot sa akin. He left me hanging there. Hindi na niya tinuloy pa ang sinabi niya dahil nagpatuloy na siya sa paghalik sa akin.

May sasabihin pa sana ako but he shutted me off by deepening the kiss. That kiss was enough to distract me from my thoughts kaya hindi ko na natuloy pa ang sasabihin ko.

Maybe I'll ask later.

Hinalikan niya ako sa ibaba ng aking tainga. Napakagat ako ng labi dahil sa ginawa niya. Kakaibang kuryente ang dumaloy sa katawan ko nang ginawa niya iyon. Bumaba naman ang kanyang halik sa aking leeg, down to my collarbones and to my stomach.

Tiningala niya muna ako upang tingnan bago niya mas ibinaba ang sarili para mahalikan ako doon. Napaliyad ako ng di oras. Wala na ata siyang pinalagpas. Ang mga kamay niya ay marahang hinahaplos ang aking mga binti.

"Jaxon..." I moaned at kinagat muli ang labi. He's making me so crazy with what he's doing to me right now!

His mouth covered my throbbing folds. He slid his hands up to touch my waist. He stopped what he's doing down there at umakyat naman ang kanyang mga halik sa aking tiyan.

Buti naman... mababaliw na ata ako sa ginagawa niya.

"In 2010 and 2011, I wasn't able to come to the formal party because I was dispatched back to Syria. But in 2012, General Donovan gave me this mission in Afghanistan. I accepted it. You know why?" Umiling ako. Pinagpatuloy niya naman ang pagpatak ng halik sa aking tiyan. He's smiling in between his little talks and kisses.

"Because I know you were going to be there." He answered.

So, he knew me after all these years? Bukod sa impormasyong anak ako ni General Donovan, marami pa siyang alam tungkol sa akin. Alam niya kung kailan ako nagtake ng licensure exam. Alam niya kung kailan ako grumaduate ng med school. Alam niya kung saan ako ospital ako nag-internship. Kahit zodiac sign ko na hindi ko naman nababanggit sakanya ay alam niya!

Did he try to look for my informations on the internet? O baka naman hinalungkat niya ang lahat ng tungkol sa akin sa kanilang "private files"? Oh, right! They have that in military!

Doon niya siguro nakukuha ang lahat! That's his way! I finally know why!

"Your ways were to dig deeper about my information in your private files, huh?" I teased. Agad namang umangat ang tingin niya sa akin ng sabihin ko iyon.

He chuckled at inayos ang kanyang posisyon. He's now on top of me. Hinawi niya naman ang buhok na humaharang sa aking mukha. Pinatakan niya ako ng halik sa aking labi.

"Took you long enough," he whispered.

"You are such a stalker."

Inabot ko siya para mahalikan na muli. Hindi kami matatapos dito kung patuloy siya sa pagsasabi sa akin nito. He can tell me that later. O kahit kailan! We have years ahead of us.

I want him so much right now na gusto ko nang ituloy ang hindi namin natapos last week. At ang mga sinasabi niya sa akin ay nagiging sagabal para maituloy na namin iyon.

I kissed him hungrily para malaman niyang gustong-gusto ko na siya sa akin ngayon. If he's too numb to realize it, ako na ang gagawa nang kilos.

I was just about to do what I have planned to do when I heard him chuckled. Ngumuso ako.

"Not so fast, baby..."

Pinalo ko siya. I can't wait any longer! This is killing me! Hindi ko alam kung paano pa siya nakakapagpigil! Kasi ako... hindi ko na kaya.

"Stop talking!" pagsaway ko sakanya.

Tumawa siyang muli at tumango nalang. Good thing that he knows how to follow me.

His member reached my entrance. He stopped there, teasing me. Tuwang-tuwa pa siya sa ginagawa.

"Baby... please..." pakiusap ko.

"Okay... okay..." he said in between his laughs. "It's a good thing to know that I'm not the only one crazy in love here."

Pagkatapos niyang sabihin iyon ay halos mapasigaw ako nang tuluyan na niyang ginawa iyon. He inserted himself slowly. Hinalikan niya muna ako sa aking labi bago siya gumalaw. Halos mabaliw na ako sa bawat kilos niya. He moved so fast and hard that I heard myself moaning so loud. He covered my mouth and chuckled.

"This is why our house is under construction already. I don't want them hearing you moan, gusto ko ako lang ang makakarinig niyan." He whispered sexily on my ear.

May... bahay na kami?

Hindi na ako nakapagreact ng maayos dahil mas binilisan niya ang ginagawa. I tried to calm myself kahit sobrang hirap. Soft moans came and it made him kiss my mouth hungrily. He continued to grind on me.

He broke his kiss at nang dumilat naman ako ay nakita kong nagaalab na ang kanyang mga mata. Humawak siya sa headrest para masuportahan ang kanyang bigat habang ginagawa iyon. He's so red and sweaty right now. Parang nabalewala ang pagligo namin kanina.

He went faster and harder until I felt him spill inside of me. Hingal na hingal ako nang tinapos niya ang ginagawa niya. Bumagsak siya sa akin, hinahabol ang hininga.

"I want you to name our baby George." Aniya. Tumawa naman ako. Talagang sigurado siyang mabubuntis ako ha?

"What if it's a girl?"

Hinalikan niya ako sa aking balikat at leeg. Itinapat niya naman ang kanyang labi sa aking leeg, nanatili iyon doon.

"That's up to you."

Theophilia... which means loved by God. 'Yan ang gusto kong ipangalan kung sakaling babae ang magiging unang anak namin. Or Maureen!

Ngayon, natupad ko na ang regalong gusto niya sa akin. Tumawa ako. Kumunot naman ang noo niya.

"Happy Birthday..." I whispered. He chuckled lightly at niyakap na ako ng mahigpit.

The next few months were composed of us planning for the wedding. Just like Kiel, he also has an eight months vacation bago siya bumalik sa trabaho. That's why he uses his time to plan the wedding with me. Minsan naman ay bibisita siya sa ospital tuwing fouty-eight hours ang shift ko.

But I told Gio that I will lessen my shift from now on. I wanted to focus on our upcoming wedding. At isa pa, we only have five months left before my fiancé goes back to Syria. Kaya sinusulit ko na ang oras na kasama ko siya.

We met up with the event's organizer yesterday. Pumayag na rin si Jaxon na beach wedding nga ang gawin namin. Ilang beses ko siyang pinilit na pumayag na ganon ang mangyari. He keeps on refusing sometimes. Mas maganda raw kung ikakasal kami sa himpapawid habang nakasakay sa military plane. Hinampas ko siya dahil doon.

"Wag mo nga akong idamay diyan sa buwis buhay activities ninyong mga sundalo! Idadamay mo pa 'yung pari sa kalokohan mo." Umirap ako. "Please, Jaxon. I'm being serious here."

"Me, either. Ayaw mo nun tayo lang ang ikakasal ng ganon? It's very unique! At malay mo, pag-usapan ang kasal natin edi marami nang makakakilala sa'yo. Mas rarami ang pasyente mo." He laughed.

Hinampas ko ulit siya gamit ang magazine na pinahiram sa amin ng organizer. He used his arms to shield himself from my attacks. Nanggigil ako sakanya! He's not being serious!

"Oo! At dahil marami akong magiging pasyente, magkakaroon ako ng sikat na pasyente! Sa akin siya magpapacheck up lagi, hanggang sa magkadevelopan kami. Hanggang sa kami na ang ikakasal kasi mukhang mas maayos pang mag organize ng kasal kasama siya kaysa sa'yo!" Tumayo ako at binagsak ang magazine sa kandungan niya.

He's so frustrating! Kakagaling ko lang sa ospital kanina bago niya ako sunduin tapos ganito ang isasalubong niya sa akin!? Is he trying to ruin my mood?

"Hey!" he called. Naramdaman kong tumayo rin siya. "You don't get to do that! Fine! Beach wedding it is!"

Naglakad ako patungo sa kwarto namin, hindi ko siya pinapansin. Matapos niya akong asarin gaganyan ganyan siya ngayon!?

We transferred to our very own house last month. While it is still under construction, I secretly deposited my share to Jaxon's account. He got mad at me for doing it. Ayaw niyang nagbibigay ako ng pera para sa pampagawa ng bahay namin.

Kaya naman wala siyang nagawa nang sinabi kong ako na ang bibili ng mga furnitures. Nag-away pa kami dahil doon. Hindi dahil siya ang lalaki, sakanya na iaasa ang lahat. Ako, bilang babae, alam kong mayroon ako kaya magbibigay ako.

It's never a bad thing to give back, right?

Pinadesign namin ang bahay sa isang sikat na interior designer. I paid for her, too, even though Jaxon refuses. Hindi pa niya tapos disenyohan ang ibang parte ng bahay. Apparently, our house is too big for the two of us.

Hindi ko ba alam kung bakit ganito kalaki ang pinagawa niya. Ang ibang kwarto na bakante ay ginawa kong library, play room at movie room. Dahil sayang kung hindi magagamit. We have enough guest rooms na naman.

Isasarado ko na sana ang pinto ng kwarto namin nang maunahan niya ako. Sinubukan kong isarado ito muli pero hindi kinaya ng katawan ko ang lakas ni Jaxon.

"Oh! Come on, Margaux..."

Tiningnan ko siya sa kanyang mga mata. Mukhang nakikiusap ang mga ito na wag na akong magalit sakanya. Umirap ako at dumiretso nalang sa kama. Kinuha ko ang isa pang magazine na pinahiram sa amin at mag-isa nalang nagplano.

"You aren't serious about this." Sabi ko. Itinuon ko nalang ang pansin sa magazine na hawak ko.

Lumapit naman siya at umupo sa tabi ko. He tried to snatch the magazine out of my hand so that I can divert my attention to him. Hinawakan ko ng mahigpit ng magazine para hindi niya tuluyang makuha sa akin iyon.

"I'm sorry..." he sighed. Sinulyapan ko naman siya at sabay inirapan. "I already finalized everything in my head. So no need to worry. We'll still go through with what you've planned. I promised you that, right?"

Hindi ko parin siya pinansin.

Inayos niya ang kanyang pagkakaupo para mas lumapit sa akin. He gently tried to snatch away the magazine again. Hinayaan ko siya pero hindi ko parin siya pinapansin. I crossed my arms over my chest at huminga ng malalim.

Hindi ko siya sinulyapan kahit na alam ko na titig na titig siya sa akin. Inipit niya naman ang takas na buhok sa aking tainga. Iniwas ko ang mukha ko sakanya. He chuckled lightly.

"My baby is mad at me..." he whispered. He used his index fingers to trace my jaw, he gently caressed it.

Doon ko siya nilingon. Tinaasan niya ako ng kilay. Hindi parin ako nagsalita. Umangat naman ang gilid ng kanyang labi, trying to surpress a smile. He leaned in a little to press a kiss on my lips. Ngumuso ako.

"The organizer already contacted the venue of our wedding. Everything is set. They're just waiting for our confirmation."

"Saan ang venue?"

"Palawan."

Nag-iwas ako ng tingin para hindi niya makita ang ngiti ko. He really did take note of everything. Sabi ko kasi sakanya noon na kapag beach wedding, gusto ko sa Palawan. I didn't know he was really listening that time.

"Okay..." sagot ko.

"Are you still mad at me?"

Nilingon ko siya ulit. He gave me a questioning look. I chuckled at mas lumapit pa lalo sakanya. I put my arms over his stomach at ipinatong ko naman ang ulo ko sakanyang balikat. I heard him sighed when I did that.

"I can't wait to make Ventura as your last name." he whispered. Ngumiti naman ako. Mas ibinaon ko ang aking mukha sa kanyang balikat.

Me, too.
