Chapter 21: Devil 17: The Devil's Kiss
Zero's Pov
"Don't be afraid. I won't hurt you. You're my Natsu."
"Mas gusto kong nagagalit at naiinis ka sakin keysa nakikita kang takot at umiiwas. Please don't be Natsu. I just wanted to protect you. I can't let them touch you. Because you're mine..."
"...and what is mine is mine alone.. "
--
Napabalikwas ako ng bangon at habol ko ang aking hininga. Hindi ko alam kung anong nangyari pero may kutob ako na hindi yun maganda.
"Dude! Okay ka lang?"
Agad akong napatingin sa nagsalita at nakita ko si Cody na takang nakatingin sakin.
Napatingin ako sa paligid at nagtaka pa nang makitang nasa bar kami ni Jude at nakatulog na ako sa mahabang sofa na inuupuan namin.
Napakunot nuo ako. Parang kanina pa ako umalis dito ah.
"What happened?" Tanong ko kay Cody.
Napangisi pa muna sya bago ako sinagot.
"Ano pa eh di bumulagta ka lang dyan basta dahil nalasing ka matapos ng limang tagay. Haha! Ang hina mo talaga sa alak Zee." At sinabayan pa ng tawa.
Natigilan ako.
Ganun ba ang nangyari? Bakit parang meron akong gustong alalahanin na nangyari kani-kanina lang? Ano yun? Nanaginip lang ba ako at dahil gising na ako hindi ko na matatandaan pa?
"Ano? Okay kana ba? Akala ko uumagahin pa tayo eh." Sabi pa ni Dy.
"Anong oras na?"
"Past ten na. Siguradong hinahanap na tayo sa mga bahay natin. Kanina ka pa nga tinatawagan ni ate Erhis eh. Ayoko namang sagutin dahil wala kong maisip na idadahilan baka pagalitan nya naman ako pag sinabi kong tulog ka sa dito sa bar." Paliwanag nya.
Napabuntong hininga nalang ako sa sinabi nya. Masyado kasi syang honest para magsinungaling kay Erhis. Crush nya pa naman yun. Tsh.
"Teka, hindi ba pumunta sina Draco dito kanina?" Tanong ko pagkuwan.
"Ha? Bakit? Pupunta ba sila? Wala pa namang dumadating. Pero kung pupunta nga sila eh di umuwi na nga tayo. Ayokong mapatrouble ng wala sa oras may pasok pa bukas."
"Tsh, daming sinabi. Duwag ka talaga eh no?"
Natawa naman sya sa sinabi ko.
"Anong duwag? Umiiwas lang ako sa gulo dude. Alam mo namang alergy ako dyan."
"Tsh! Ang sabihin mo, masyado ka lang duwag. Tayo na ngang umuwi." Tatawa tawang sabi ko saka tumayo. Ngunit muntik narin akong mapaupong muli nang bigla akong mahilo at parang may masakit sa ulo ko.
"Uy Zee, okay kana ba talaga? Nalasing ka ba talaga sa limang baso lang? Lanya, lumala ka ah."
Napahawak ako sa bandang likod ng ulo ko at hindi pinansin ang pang aasar ni Dy ngunit nagtaka pa ako nang makapa kong may maliit akong bukol dun at mukhang nasugatan pa.
"Shit. Nalaglag ba ako kanina?"
"Huh? Ewan ko. Siguro, baka nung nag CR ako. Bakit?"
"May bukol yata ako eh. Shit."
"Haha! Okay lang yan dude, di yan nakakamatay." Tawa naman ng loko.
"Tsh, sigurado kang hindi mo kagagawan 'to? Baka kung ano ano namang pinaggagawa mo sakin habang natutulog ako."
"Hoy dude, masama ang magbintang ng walang sapat na dahilan. Haha! Sayang nga di kita navideohan."
"Haayst." Inambaan ko nalang sya ng sapak na tinawanan nya lang naman.
Pero hindi ko maiwasang magtaka at mag isip.
Para kasing may iba pang nangyari simula kanina. Ngunit ang natatandaan ko lang ay alas singko kami dumating dito ni Dy pagkatapos ay uminom na kami at nanood ng live band. Tapos nahilo na lang ako at nakatulog?
Yun ba talaga ang nangyari?
"Tayo na dude. Pagagalitan na ako ni mommy, ang paalam ko ay may bibilhin lang ako kaya gagabihin ako ng uwi."
"Tsh, mama's boy talaga."
Tinawanan nya lang ako saka inakbayan bago iginiya na palabas ng bar ni Jude.
"Teka Dy, si Drew nga pala nakauwi na?"
"Oo, nasa bahay na nila. Nakalimutan mo na bang sinundo nya ang pinsan nya sa airport kaya di sya nakasama ngayon?"
Napatango tango naman ako saka nagpatuloy sa paglalakad.
Hanggang sa makasakay na ako ng kotse ay hindi ko parin mapigilang hindi mag isip.
Maybe I just had a bad dream and it turned out that I can't remember it anymore.
Baka nga ganun lang yun.
"Hoy Zee, kaya mo talagang magmaneho ha?" Sigaw ni Cody na nakadungaw sa bintana ng kotse nya.
"Anong palagay mo sakin? Lango sa alak? Gusto mo magrace pa tayo eh." Asik ko naman sa kanya at tumawa na naman loko.
"Just checking dude. Sige, una na ako. Magtext ka pag nakarating ka na ha?"
"Tsh, yes babe."
Natawa naman sya sa sagot ko. Daig nya pa kasi ang Heart ko kung magbilin eh.
"Okay, papa Zee, mmuaah." Sabi nya pa na sadyang pinalambot ang boses at nagflying kiss pa bago umalis.
Napailing nalang ako sa kalokohan nya at pinaandar narin ang sasakyan ko.
Habang daan ay naisip kong tawagan si Heart dahil hindi pa kami nakakapag usap ng matino mula nang lumabas ako sa ospital.
"Hello?"
Hindi ko na naman napigilang mapangiti nang marinig ang boses nya. Para talaga syang anghel.
"Hey babe. Nakauwi ka na ba?"
"Zeck, ikaw pala. Ahmm, oo nandito na ako sa bahay."
Medyo gulat ang boses nya pero agad din napalitan ng malambing na boses.
Ngunit nagtaka lang ako dahil parang ang ingay ng paligid nya.
May party sa bahay nila?
"Ganun ba? Bakit parang ang ingay yata sa inyo. May party ba?" Hindi ko napigilang tanong. Alam ko kasing ayaw ng mama ni Heart ang maiingay na lugar kaya tuwing may party lang sila nag iingay.
"Naku wala, ahm..ano lang yun...ahmm, nagpapatugtog kasi ako dito sa kwarto dahil may sinasaulo akong sayaw para play namin."
"Ah, ganun ba. Sabay tayo ng lunch bukas?"
"Oh sure. Ang tagal narin nating di magkasabay kumain. At saka sorry ulet kung di na kita nadalaw sa ospital ha? Nagkasunod sunod kasi ang-!"
"It's okay babe, I understand. Mas okay narin yun atleast di mo ako nakitang panget habang tulog."
Natawa sya sa sinabi at hindi ko na naman napigilang kiligin kapag tumatawa sya.
Ako lang ang nagpapatawa sa kanya ng ganun kaya napaswerte ko talaga.
"Ahm, Zeck kita nalang tayo tom itutuloy ko lang ang practice ko."
"Oh, okay babe. I love you."
Ngunit wala na akong nakuhang sagot dahil binaba nya na ang telepono. Pero okay lang atleast gumaan ang pakiramdam ko dahil nakausap ko syang muli.

Jack's Pov
"Oh, okay babe. I love you."
I clenched my jaw after hearing those words that Natsu said to his girl.
I don't know this kind of feeling I am suffering right now. I feel like I wanted to kill that person he talked with.
But I know I will be more devil in his eyes if I do that.
I still can remember the fears written on his eyes just awhile ago.
He was scared of me. He was trembling and shocked!
I admit that I wanted to see that reaction from him once he found out who truly I am. But that was then. Things got change and my will has changed.
I realized that I don't want him to be scared of me. I don't want to see his reaction like he saw a monster before his eyes.
I know I shouldn't let him to be close to me but everytime I'm with him I feel like I own him.
And I felt strange when someone mistreated him or give him special treatment. I feel like, I want to be the only one who will treated him a special one.
And that girl he was talking to was never be good to him. She was hiding something. I saw it when I touch her hand. I saw who truly she is.
And whoever she is. She will bring badluck to Natsu. And that will never gonna happen. As long as I'm alive and still in my right mind. In my human mind. I will never let that happen.
When Natsu's car enter his place. I command Raygun to take me home. It seems like he doesn't want to return Raygun to me so I get her myself.
I wonder what will be his reaction when he find out about this. But I hope he'll be fine tonight.
I look again to his house particularly in his room.
"Good night Natsu. Please forget about what happened today..and please don't dream of me." I turned my back and drive Raygun.
It was strange isn't it.? I should be wished that he will dream of me but I wished the other way around.
Because I know that he will only remember the monster he saw in me not the real me he's always arguing with everyday.
It is better that he'll never remember me tonight. I don't want him to have a nightmare.
I don't want him to freak out again like what he did when he saw me in a monster like. It was so dangerous. I almost let the wargon awake.
I can't help it. I saw those bastard hit him and my anger rose like I saw the man who killed my love in front of me.
I can't control myself and I killed them. All of them. And feels like I wanted more. I want to torture them and let them beg me to killed them. But as much as I want to do that. I know it's not good if Natsu saw more of my evilness. He might be afraid of me for the rest of his life. And I don't want that to happen.
Natsu calms me even if I'm in the state of my atrocious self. When he's with me, I can control my anger and I can lessen the hatred I am feeling. And it's all because of him.
I just hope that he'll never see my montrous self again.
"Jack..!!? Oh my God!!" Andy's scream when I entered our haven.
I look at her without any reactions in my face.
I saw fears in her eyes upon seeing me. She stood up from sitting the couch and run to the corner.
I can feel her heart beats and it was racing fast. She's always like this everytime she saw me showering with blood in my body.
"Shane what happ-! Oh Jesus!" James came out from the kitchen and did the same reaction with his sister.
If I'm not in my right mind now I might harm them. But thanks to that red head man who calms my heart. Natsu.
"Jack..?" Said James in a confusing sound as if he was trying to know if I still remember them.
I also saw his hand at his back trying to get something. A tool maybe for his self defense if I attack him.
"I need a bath." I said as I throw myself at the couch and leaned back while my eyes close.
I heaved a sigh. And the siblings do the same as if they've been thru a fast racing game.
"I-I'll prepare your tub." Said Andy and run uptairs.
I heard James footstep towards me.
"Where you've been Jack?" He asked expecting me to answer him honestly.
"To a fight." I said shortly.
"W-what kind of fight?"
"I don't want to talk about it James. I want to ease my mind." I said. Still eyes close.
I heard him sigh.
"I just hope you didn't kill innocent people."
That's a cue to open my eyes. I look at him and he do the same. I know what he meant. For the past years that we've been together. I know he only wants my free will and at the same time the safety of the others.
"They're not innocent people, James. They almost killed the boy I treasure. And they're the one who's abusing innocent people by illegal trafficking and killing them when they're not needed them anymore."
He gaped.
"Is this about Zero?" He said frowning.
"Yes."
He bite his lips and hand his chin. He sit beside me and look at me intently.
"Jack I... I know that..that Zero was giving you an extra ordinary feelings that you only expriencing right now. But he's.. He's just a boy. And he's no good for you or the other way around."
"I know. But he is my remedy. He calms me and whenever he's around I can control myself from being a monster. He was the reason why I'm still in my right mind now while my body is showering with blood. You know how much I hate these blood."
He gaped and look at me like he was trying to sink in what I said.
"He can calms you?" Confusing was written on his face.
I nod at him.
"You mean...he can control you?"
"No. I can control myself. I can lessen my anger whenever I'm with him. He's like...my antidote for not harming anyone."
He paused. He just stared at me like he was thinking about a very deep situation.
"Your bath is all prepared Jack." We both turned to Andy when she appears.
I heaved a sigh and stand.
"I promised to both of you that I will never kill innocent people again. Though I'm still working on it, I think it's better if Natsu is always near me so I can grant that promise easier." I said before leaving them and headed uptairs.
I badly need a bath. I'm soaking wet with blood.
I hurriedly undress myself when I get in my room.
I take a shower first to cleaned myself before I stepped on the tub. Leaning myself at the side and playing the ice cube in my chest.
And like what I always do. I sunk myself with ice. I closed my eyes and thats when I remember how Natsu's reacted a while ago.
I kissed him before he could freak out. I want him to forget what he saw by kissing him. I did it once. I erased his memories when shadow hunters entrude his house.
As I'm about to erase his memories he pushed me and look at me as if he saw a devil.
"Y-you're a monster!! What the...what the hell are you!?" Hes freaking out.
"Natsu.." I tried to touch him but he avoided my touch.
I can feel his trembling body and the eagerness to run away.
"Natsu.. I.. I was trying to save you."
"Saving me from what? From these people you just killed? Yes they are bad people but they will never do what you've done to them. You killed them with your bare hands..! Oh God.. You're not human Jack. You really are a devil." He said with a trembling hands pointing at me.
I felt something strange in my heart. I felt like I was left by someone I love. I don't know what should I call it. Maybe...HURT??
"A-akala ko demonyo na ang grupo nina Draco pero may mas malala pa pala sa kanila. God! I never realized that I'm dealing with a monster." He said with fearness in his voice and shivering sound.
I swallowed. I want to hug him and tell him that he has nothing to be afraid of. Because it's still me. The girl he always pissed off and arguing with everyday.
"Don't be afraid. I won't hurt you. You're my Natsu." I said as I walk close to him. He stepped back but he stopped when he stepped on the dead body behind him. He faced me as if he has no choice.
"It's still me Natsu, I'm still Jack you used to know. Mas gusto kong nagagalit at naiinis ka sakin keysa nakikita kang takot at umiiwas. Please don't be afraid Natsu. I just wanted to protect you. I can't let them touch you. Because you're mine..."
"...and what is mine is mine alone.. "
He looked at me as if he was very confused for what I said.
"I will never be yours Jack. I have someone in my heart and I love her. And look at you! Who would ever love a monster like you? I will never love a monster who could kill people with just one hand."
I frozed. I never expected him to say that to me. The feeling I am feeling awhile ago was rising.
Now I feel like he stabbed my heart and left me alone.
I swallowed hard while staring at him for a second. What he said was hurt. And that hurt is what I'm feeling now.
I saw his face reaction change. From feared and mad to a soft and kind.
"Jack..." He said and he looks like he couldn't believed for what he was seeing right now. I wonder what he saw and that's when I felt a combination of a warm and cold liquid flowing my cheeks from my misty black eyes.
I blink twice and touch my face.
I frowned when I felt the water in my finger. I look at this and frowning written my forehead.
"What is this thing?" I ask.
"You never seen a tear?" I look at him.
"This is tears? Coming from eyes?"
He confusedly nod.
I look again in my finger with my tears.
So this is what people do when they hurt. They form a water in their eyes and let it flow to their cheeks. Tss. Nice. I can't remember this kind of thing when I'm still that fragile girl depending my life with the man I love.

Zero's Pov
"Kyaaaaahhhh!"
"Zero my love!!"
"Why is he always this gorgeous! Eeehhh!!! I want to kiss him!!"
"Marry me Zero Montero!!"
I smiled at them which make them shout my name more.
"Laters baby." I said. At waring nahimatay pa ang ilan sa sinabi ko.
Tsh! Mga babae talaga! Kelan kaya ako titilihan ng ganyan ng Heart ko. Napangiti ako sa isiping magtititili sa harap ko si Heart habang kilig na kilig.
"Speaking of the devil." Rinig kong wika ni Dy kaya agad akong napatingin sa harap ko.
Devil? Am I really the devil? But why I'm trying to think someone else with a devil form?
Ipinilig ko nalang ang ulo ko saka nagpatuloy sa paglalakad hanggang sa makalapit na ako kina Cody at Drew na naghihintay sakin sa outpost.
"Devil your face." Bati ko kay Cody at agad syang binatukan.
Natawa naman si Drew sa ginawa ko ngunit natigilan ako nang makarinig pa ng marahang tawa sa gilid ko.
At nang lingunin ko iyon ay nakita ko si Heart na natatawa habang pinapanood kami.
"Heart..." Lumapad ang ngiti ko at agad ko syang nilapitan. I hug her slightly and kissed her cheeks. Namula agad sya saka napalingon sa kanyang paligid.
"Good morning babe.." Bulong ko sa kanya. Napangiti naman sya.
"Good morning."
I stare at her for a second. She looks so beautiful with her sexy uniform. Sa lahat ng estudyante sya lang ang pinakamagandang magdala ng uniform. Sabagay kahit naman yata ano ang ipasuot sa kanya ay bagay parin o kahit siguro wala. I smiled with the thought.
"Why are you smiling? What are you thinking?" Nagtatakang tanong niya.
"Wala naman..masyado ka lang kasing maganda ngayon."
"Kaya ka natawa dahil masyado akong maganda?" Kunot nong tanong niya.
"No, hindi yun. Aish, never mind. Basta maganda ka." Nakangiti ko paring sabi ngunit hindi nya yata nagustuhan ang sinabi ko dahil sumeryoso na ang mukha nya.
"Hey dude, baka naman pwedeng pansinin mo rin kami. Nakita mo lang Heart mo nakalimutan mo ng may naghihintay sayo dito." Himig pagtatampong wika ni Cody.
I rolled my eyes on him.
"Kahit kelan panira ka ng moment no?" Asik ko sa kanya.
Narinig kong natawa muli si Heart kaya napalingon ako sa kanya. Hindi na sya seryoso. Nakangiti na ulet sya na parang walang nangyari.
"Hi Angel. Good morning!" Malambing na bati ng bwisit na Cody.
"Hi Cody Cute, good morning!" Natatawa paring bati rin ni Heart sa kanya.
Sinamaan ko naman ng tingin si Cody na noon ay nagpapacute pa sa Heart ko.
Pang asar pa talaga ang loko.
"Nga pala guys, malapit na ang sportfest natin, ready na ba kayong talunin ang ibang school?" Ani Heart.
"Wala namang nakakatalo samin pagdating sa bagay na yan eh." Mayabang na sagot naman ni Cody. Epal ang putsa.
But what he said was right. We are always the depending champion in a baseball field. Baseball ang sikat na laro sa lahat ng school at dun kami nagfofocus.
"Don't worry Heart. Hindi pa pinapanganak ang tatalo samin." Sabi ko naman na nakangisi.
"Yun oh! Basta magkakasama kaming tatlo walang makakatalo samin." Ani Cody na inakbayan pa ako at si Drew.
"H'wag masyadong mayabang Dy. I heard there's a new students in West Academy na magaling din sa baseball." Ani Drew na seryoso.
"Ay sus, kahit ilan pa silang magsama sama wala paring tatalo satin sa baseball."
"Well, pagdating sa bagay na yan wala na akong duda na mananalo kayo. But the softball team was always in the tail." Medyo malungkot na wika ni Heart. She's the president of the sportfest team kaya naiintidihan ko na nalulungkot sya kapag merong nangungulelat sa mga students namin.
Softball was played by girls. It's the female version of baseball. Kung gaano kalakas ang baseball team ay sya namang hina ng softball team. Masyado kasing mga girly ang mga girls. Bukod sa mayayaman naman kasi sila ay di nila forte ang paghawak ng bat at soft ball.
Girls here are more capable in the volleyball and tennis field. Kaya naman palaging huli ang softball team. Wala pa halos member na marecruit kaya ang nangyayari, kung sino ang nasa volleyball sila narin ang softball. But there were times na magkasabay na naglalaro ang volleyball at softball kaya madalas disqualified sila.
"You know what Angel, ano kaya kung kaming tatlo nalang ang maghanap ng mga girls na sasali sa softball team. I'm sure makita palang nila si Zero o Drew magkakandarapa pa silang pumila sa softball team." Nakangiting suggest ni Cody.
"Oo Dy para lahat ng magiging member ay puro mahihina ulit." Sarkastikong sagot naman ni Drew.
"Eh di magpatry out tayo." Ani Heart.
Napataas ang kilay ko. Hwag nyang sabihin na sasang ayunan nya ang naisip ni Cody. Siguradong purong mahihinang girls lang ang sasali dun.
"Are you going to buy his idea?" Takang tanong ko sa kanya.
She shrug her shoulder.
"Why not? Kayo naman talagang tatlo ang malakas sa mga girls. Though may possibility na kayo lang din ang habol nila kapag sumali sila but atleast we tried. Besides, ipapatry out naman natin sila eh. Kapag mahina at di talaga marunong, wag nang isali pero kapag kaya namang pumalo ng bola at marunong sumalo, pwede na yun."
Nagkatinginan kami ni Drew. May point naman sya.
Napangiti ako sa ideya ng Heart ko.
"Ang talino mo talaga. Okay, kelan kami magsisimula?" Masiglang sabi ko.
"Sus, sakin galing ang idea dre, nalimutan mo?" Agad na reklamo ni Cody.
Hindi ko nalang sya pinansin.
"Okay, mamaya ay magkakaroon ng choosing game sa gym. Dun nalang din natin gawin ang pagpili sa mga alam nating pwedeng isali and then maybe tomorrow natin sila ipapatry out."
"Cool." Sabay na sagot naman naming tatlo.
Matapos niyon ay hinatid ko nalang si Heart sa room bago ako tumuloy sa room namin.
Matapos ang pang umagang klase ay wala na kaming klase sa hapon dahil sa gagawing choosing game sa gym.
At dahil may usapan kami ng Heart ko na sabay kaming maglalunch ay humiwalay na muna ako sa dalawa.
Pinuntahan ko si Heart sa room nya upang sunduin. Mas maaga ako ng ten minutes keysa sa normal na awasan kaya paniguradong nandun pa sya.
Lahat ng madaanan kong estudyante ay binabati ako. Nginingitian ko naman sila dahil di naman ako madamot sa ngiti di tulad ni Drew.
Akmang liliko na sana ako sa pasilyo papuntang classroom nina Heart nang makarinig ako ng ungol mula sa janitors room.
Hindi ko nalang sana iyon papansinin pero ewan ko ba at nacurious akong makita kung sino ang mga iyon na mukhang gumagawa pa yata ng milagro sa school ko.
Muli kong narinig ang mahinang ungol ng babae na ewan ko ba kung bakit parang pamilyar sakin ang boses nya.
As I'm about to open the door when someone hold my wrist.
At nang lingunin ko iyon ay sinalubong ako ng kanyang magagandang mata.
Her beautiful purple eyes.
"I want to tell you something." Aniyang bigla nalang akong hinila paalis sa janitors room ay nagtuloy tuloy kami papuntang rooftop ng building.
Takang napatingin nalang ako sa kamay nyang nakahawak sa braso ko.
She's cold. Kahit tirik na tirik ang araw ay ang lamig ng kamay nya.
And speaking of her. I just found out that she got her motorcycle. I wonder how she get it from home.
Bigla ko nalang naalala ang ginawa nyang pangbibitin..este pang aasar sakin kahapon kaya ng makarating kami ng roof top ay agad kong binawi ang kamay ko sa kanya.
"What do you want Salamander?" Asik ko sa kanya.
She turned to me saka ako tiningnan na para bang tinitimpla ang mood ko.
"Akala mo ba nakalimutan ko na ang ginawa mong pamamahiya sa akin kahapon?" Galit na sabi ko.
"Tapos ang lakas ng loob mong hilahin ako dito? At saka bakit mo ba ako dinala dito? May binabalak ka ba sakin?"
Hindi sya sumagot. Nanatili lang syang nakatayo sa harap ko habang mataman akong tinitingnan.
Ano ba talagang gusto ng babaeng 'to? Di kaya may gusto sya sakin kaya-! Wait-!What am I talking about?
Ngunit napangisi ako nang may mabuong ideya sa utak ko.
Ano kaya kung simulan ko na ang best method ko sa kanya ngayon. Tutal naman dalawa lang kami dito at isa pa sya ang nagdala sakin dito.
"O baka naman.." I walk towards her while smiling playfully.
Nang halos ilang pulgada nalang ang layo namin sa isa't isa ay huminto ako saka sya tiningnan ng may halong pang aakit.
"...may gusto ka sakin kaya madalas kang magpapansin?" Nakangising tanong ko saka kinagat ang ibaba kong labi.
She just stare at me. Pero natuwa ako ng dumako sa labi ko ang tingin nya.
"Tell me Jack, are you falling for me?" Tanong ko saka bahagyang naglean upang magpantay ang mga mukha namin.
"I think so." Ako naman ang natigilan sa bilis ng sagot nya.
Bahagya akong napalayo sa kanya at tiningnan syang mabuti. Seryoso lang syang nakatingin sakin.
"Yes Natsu, I think I'm falling for you." Ulit pa niya na mas kinabigla ko.
"H-huh?" Gulat na bulalas ko. Hindi ko inaasahan ang sinabi nya.
Shit! I'm supposed to tease her pero bakit parang tinatablan ako sa sagot nya.
"What? Are you being serious? Haha. I was just teasing you Jack." Hilaw akong tumawa saka umiwas ng tingin dahil ang totoo para na akong matutunaw sa klase ng tingin nya.
Ngunit nagulat pa ako nang bigla niya akong hilahin sa kamay kaya naman napalapit ako sa kanya at halos maduling ako sa sobrang lapit ng aming mukha sa isa't isa.
Dugdug...dugdug...dugdug...
"I said I'm falling for you and you have nothing to do with it." Aniya na medyo paos ang boses.
Napalunok ako nang dumako sa labi ko ang tingin nya.
I know it's gay but I think I wanted to close my eyes and wait for her next move.
I stiffened when she held my chin and lock my gaze.
"Natsu, I want to court you."
What the hell is she talking about!!!?
At bago pa ako makahuma ay bigla nya nalang akong siniil ng halik sa labi.
Nanlaki ang mga mata kong napatitig nalang sa kawalan.
It's my first kiss!!
Shit! This devil stole my first kiss that supposed to be for Heart only.
Pero nang gumalaw ang kanyang mga labi ay parang nakaramdam ako ng pamilyar na galaw.
Is it really my first time to be kissed by this salamander?
