After namin kumain, nagdrive si Octavia pauwi. She held my hand again ng pumasok kami sa building as we entered the penthouse. She sat on the couch and closed her eyes, sighing

"Okay ka lang?" I asked at naupo sa tabi niya "Rough day for me. I went to the country side to confront my grandmother which is 6hrs drive and it took me 2hrs to get there. Signed a few contracts that Olivia can't do. Just stressful for a teenager like us" sambit ni Octavia sa akin

"Well, kung hindi mo na kaya, magpahinga ka na dun sa kwarto" Napatingin naman siya sa akin at tumayo na ikinagulat ko "No, I'm fine. I'm not tired. Madami pa kong aasikasuhin so do whatever you want to do, understood?" dali dali niyang sabi

I rolled my eyes at hinawakan ang kamay niya, dragging her to our bedroom. I closed the door and pushed Octavia to the walk in closet "Magbihis ka na tapos matulog ka na sa kama, okay?"

She whined like a child which is cute. Wala akong sinabing hindi ahh "Dali, magbihis ka na" I spoke once again. Octavia pouted and the cuteness is killing my heart!

"Promise to give me cuddles?"

Nanlaki naman ang mata ko sa narinig pero hindi ako magpapatalo. Ang personality ko ay masasabi kong top and with that, I smiled "Sure, kaya magbihis ka na"

"L-Luh... Joke lang!" I smirked. That's the Octavia I know. Yung shy type tapos kabilis mamula. Cute cute naman talaga

"Oh sige na. Magbihis ka na, honey~" I teased na mas lalo niya pang ikinamula. Ha! 2pts for Clavero "Nakakadalawa na ko, Octavia. Ano na?" At tumawa

"Alam mo, nakakabwisit ka" ani nito at pumasok sa walk in closet. Bago pa kami maging, well, mag asawa, we were good friends. Not bestfriends, just equally nice to each other

Naupo ako sa kama at binuksan ang TV para manood sa Netflix. The clothes I wore are comfortable for me to sleep kaya hindi na ko nagbabalak pang magpalit. I removed my shoes at tuluyan nang nahiga

I saw her wearing a pink sweater at pajamas. Sa totoo lang, mas bagay sa kanya ang comfy clothes kaysa sa formal. I smiled "Come cuddle with me?"

"Don't push your luck" Octavia snapped as I grinned "Strictly platonic hangga't hindi pa tayo na-iinlove sa isa't isa" sambit ko, making her raise a brow

"Wanna make a bet kung sino sa atin ang unang mafafall?" I added. She tch-ed at nahiga sa tabi ko. She wrapped her arms around me. I paused for a moment at tinignan siya ng palihim

She's so freaking cuteeeeeee

"Bottom ka beh?" I teasingly asked. I can see how her cheeks turn red but she forced herself not to stutter "No... I'm just tired" aniya

"Kung ayaw mo we can stop doing this-" I hugged her tightly, my hand resting her head on my chest. Hindi ko alam ang ginagawa ko ahh but whatever this is, atleast I know hindi ako under ni Octavia

"No, we cuddle, mkay? Kaya matulog ka na dahil kita naman sa mukha mo na pagod ka"

"Please, you look tired as well at mas malala ka pa kaysa sakin. Your eyebags speaks for itself kaya mas kailangan mo ng pahinga. Ano ba kasing ginagawa niyo sa Student Council para magkaganyan ka? You should take care of yourself, okay? Di yung puro ganyan na you would work yourself to death" she scolded me. Aish, ang cute talaga niya. She's not even trying to be mad!

"1pt for Valmont" Octavia muttered and pointed at my cheeks. Bwiset, bakit nagbablush ako?! Top ka self, di ba?! I saw her smile, she's so freaking cute and pretty at the same time

"How does it feel?"

Octavia stared at me, confused "Huh?"

I smirked and held her chin kaya ang close ng face namin. Already expected, namula na naman si Octavia. Bottom talaga to "How does it feel to look like an angel?" I softly spoke as she blushed harder

I laughed "3pts for Clavero" "Oh, shut up!"

She was fuming in anger and embarrassment. Ngumiti akong muli and kissed her forehead, which made her pause "Elaina..."

"Good night, bottom~"

She only stared at me which made me smile due to the fact that she looked like a deer caught in headlights. I was beginning to feel weary as I closed my eyes ng maramdaman ko ang paghigpit ng yakap niya sa akin

"Good night, Laina..."
