Take A Chance With Me

In the quiet aftermath of confessing our love, a shift began between Cress and me.

Every glance seemed to linger a second too long, every touch igniting something raw and powerful that I had never felt before.

Our newfound relationship brought with it an intensity, a magnetic pull that made every moment feel like it could tip over into something more.

At the weekend, we decided to escape the city for a day, just the two of us.

I wanted to take Cress to my favorite hidden spot by the coast, a secluded beach where the waves met the rocks with a soft, rhythmic crash, and the sky stretched open above us.

I knew she would love it-the wild beauty, the freedom, and the intimacy of having the place to ourselves.

The sun was setting when we arrived, casting a warm, golden light over the sand.

We laid down a blanket, and as we settled in, a comfortable silence wrapped around us, interrupted only by the sound of the ocean.

I turned to her, watching as she traced patterns in the sand with her fingers, a thoughtful look on her face.

"Thank you for taking me here Mavs" She whispered, glancing at me with those eyes that had always undone me. "This place is so beautiful... para tayong nasa ibang mundo."

"Sarili nating mundo" I replied, reaching over to brush a stray lock of hair behind her ear, my fingers lingering on her cheek.

Her skin felt warm under my touch, and I saw her cheeks flush as she smiled. "Have I told you that I love you, hmm?" I asked.

"You always do Mavs" She smiled, a beaming smile of genuineness with that look of her, smiling, laughing - I am definitely a captive as I can only stare at her.

There's something inside me burned as I watched her , admiring the beauty of the ocean while I admire hers.

Every detail of her face was mesmerizing and the thought that I could see her every time fuels the butterflies inside me.

Cress is a wonderful person, a woman of beauty and talents, she's intelligent in her field and a model for everyone.

Wala akong masabi tungkol sa kanya- she has everything, she's lovable in her own way.

Muli akong napalunok ng marahang gumalaw ang mga labi niya dala ng kanyang paghinga.

Our gazes met, and without realizing it, I leaned closer, drawn to the warmth radiating from her.

Cress didn't move away, her breath hitching slightly, as if she, too, was captivated by the moment.

Gently, I cupped her face "Mahal na mahal kita" I mumbled, my thumb tracing the softness of her cheek as I felt my pulse quicken.

"Maven...." Her voice was barely a whisper, a mix of hesitation and something deeper, something that mirrored the pull I felt inside.

She was close enough that I could feel her breath, warm against my skin, and her gaze flickered from my eyes to my lips and back again, igniting a fire inside me.

I closed the distance, my lips finding hers in a soft, hesitant kiss that quickly deepened as she responded, her hands finding their way around my neck.

My fingers tangled in her hair, pulling her closer until there was nothing but her warmth, her scent, and the feel of her lips against mine.

Near the shore, in an open field of white sand, above us the moon shone brightly along with the numbers of stars.
