CHAPTER 26

WHIPPED

Iris' POV

Waking up with a huge smile on my face was never my thing. I was always the grumpy one. And to be honest, I used to think it only happens in movies but here I am, experiencing it on my own, smiling like a fool.

Still sleepy but extremely excited, I grabbed my phone from my bed stand table and immediately checked for Dashiell's message.

From Dash:

6:02 am

Good morning 😊

Sana napanaginipan mo ko hahaha 😘

I giggled and stared at the kissing emoji for a few minutes.

This is so bad. Kinikilig na talaga ako dahil sa kanya.

"Hay nako Iris." Napapailing akong umupo at nag-type ng isasagot ngunit wala pang ilang segundo ay tumawag naman bigla si Dash. And it's a VIDEO CALL!

OH SH*T!!! MY HAIR!

Tumakbo agad ako sa CR at nagsuklay pagkatapos ay naghilamos ako bago ako bumalik sa kama at sinagot ang tawag niya.

"Hey---" I cleared my throat after hearing my hoarse voice. "Morning."

"Hi." Ang laki ng ngiti sa bibig niya habang pinagmamasdan niya ako. Nakahiga pa siya at halatang kakagising lang din. Nakabaon ang kalahati ng mukha niya sa unan at pumupugay pa ang mga mata. But he managed to still look hot with that messy hair of his.

"Ang ganda mo talaga."

I wanted to scream my feelings but I held myself and looked away from the camera for a second.

Tumigil ka Iris, wag kang masyadong magpahalata.

"Bolero." I chuckled, glancing at my clock. "I'll get ready na. See you later?"

"I'll pick you up." Ulit? Araw-araw na 'yan ah.

"Okay. Ingat ka."

"Love you."

Tumawa lang ako at in-end na ang call. Then I screamed on my pillow before laughing at myself.

Dash had undeniably become a part of my daily routine these past few weeks. Sobrang nasanay na nga ako na pagkagising ko ay siya agad ang nakakausap ko. Napapadalas na rin ang pagsundo niya sa akin at paghatid pauwi. Hindi ko alam kung paano siya nakakatakas sa training nila tuwing hapon pero masaya naman ako na nage-effort talaga siya.

Every lunch we'd eat together, either outside the campus or at the dining hall with our friends. Madalas doon siya sa table namin nila Caylee sumisiksik pero nitong mga nakaraang araw naman ay ako na ang isinasama niya sa table nila ng Larkyn Bears. I was shy at first but his friends are all welcoming. Maski si Royce ay nakapalagayan ko na nga rin ng loob. May mga girlfriends rin naman kasi ang ilan sa kanila kaya hindi lang naman ako ang babae doon.
