C64: A Dance with Dashed.

64: A Dance with Dashed

"Huy, couz... gaga, si Dashed... nasa labas. Kanina ka pa hinihintay!"

Teegan's words caught me off guard. Wala kasi kaming teacher ng last period kaya kanina pa sila naglalabas-pasok ng room. Habang ako, kanina pa hindi mapakali dahil sa naging sagutan namin ni Dashed kani-kanina lang.

Teka... Paanong nasa labas siya? Wasn't he in Tagaytay?

Without wasting a second, I quickly dashed out of our classroom. My eyes widened when I confirmed Teegan's words. He's really here. Shit. Pinagtitinginan siya ng mga estudyanteng dumadaan, but his gaze was solely fixed on me!

But it looked sad. Like he couldn't find peace.

"Dashed." I called him.

Buong magdamag lang kaming hindi nagkita pero damang-dama ko pa rin ang labis na pananabik sa kanya.

God. I'm so addicted to this guy.

"Baby..." and my palms landed on my mouth when I noticed that his eyes were red! Like he just cried a few moments ago!

Lumapit siya sa'kin. Dahan-dahan. With each step, it seemed like he was calculating whether I would step back or run away from him. But I didn't. I remained in my spot, waiting for him to come closer.

"W-Why are you here? Si Tita Preigh?" I asked, confused.

"I'm just so scared that you'll be too mad at me, so I abruptly came here... Tinawagan ko na lang 'yong driver namin para sunduin si Mama."

"Bakit mo ginawa 'yun?"

"Mama understands me, baby. I told her you're upset. And you know I can't deal with it," I stood there, agape, as his hands wrapped around my waist. "I'm so sorry if you thought that I doubted you. I'm sorry if I got jealous so quickly. I thought... you were really going to push me away because Mama said I should hear you out first before jumping to conclusions. And I didn't. Then you turned off your phone earlier, kaya nagmadali talaga ako papunta rito."

Nagkatinginan kaming dalawa. Hindi ko alam pero parang may kung anong mabigat ang bumagsak sa akin.

"D-Dashed..." I called out to him with tears now in my eyes. "Are we fighting?"

Hinalikan niya ang noo no, walang pakielam kung marami nang nanonood sa amin. "No, of course not. We're just discussing things, baby. But... can I ask for a favor?"

I nodded eagerly. "What is it?"

"Stay away from my brother, please? I don't like him being with you... Kahit anong pigil ko, nagseselos pa rin talaga ako."

"But why?"

"I'm not that dumb not to notice that he likes you, Bronywn."

"But he's your brother, Dashed. How can I avoid him?"

"Just don't stray too far from my side."

I raised my eyebrows. "What?"

"How many times do I have to tell you this, baby? You're mine, and I'm yours. Dapat akin lang ang lahat ng atensyon mo..."

I bit my lip and even if I'm still confused, I slowly agreed with his terms.

At that moment, we both decided na bago niya ako ihatid sa bahay, we'll go to cabaret first para maglibang. When we got there, agad kong napuna ang mga matang nakamasid sa'min... particularly sa kanya.

He's just wearing a simple black fitted shirt, gray dress pants, and sneakers, but darn it, it's like he's making all the women here drool over him! Despite the fact na suot-suot ko na 'yong jacket niya with 'Calderón de García' written on the back, pero parang hindi pa rin ako nage-exist sa paningin nila.

Now I've realized how hard it is when your boyfriend won a genetic lottery!

Ain't never felt this way

Can't get enough so stay with me

It's not like we got big plans

Let's drive around town holding

hands

I felt Dashed's hand snake around me when we heard that song. Damn it.

Pakiramdam ko ay kinikilabutan ang bawat parte ng katawan ko!

And you need to know

You're the only one, alright... alright

And you need to know

That you keep me up all night, all

night

"Baby..."

Another bunch of chills ran down my spine when I heard his voice. Hindi ko maipaliwanag ang nararamdaman ko dahil sa kantang tumutugtog ngayon. Maraming mga couples ang nakikita kong malambing na sumasayaw sa gitna ng dance floor but my mind was focused on Dashed's sweet and captivating gaze.

I chewed my lower lip before answering him, "Y-Yes?"

He smiled and kneeled in front of me. He extended his hand, uttering the words... "May I have this dance?"

Oh... my, God!

Oh, my heart hurts so good

I love you, babe, so bad, so bad

Slowly, even if I'm still overwhelmed with emotions, I accepted his hand. The moment our skin touched, there... it's like something finally exploded inside me.

Ang saya. Sobrang saya.

I grabbed his nape while he placed his hands on my waist. We positioned ourselves in the middle. He started to sway. At ngayon, tanging siya na lang ang nakikita ko.

Ang mukha niya na lang.

Ang ngiti niya na lang.

Oh, oh my heart hurts so good

I love you, babe, so bad, so bad

"Dashed... I think I have it bad for you..." I found myself saying after a moment of gazing at him in silence.

He stared at me too, deeply and dearly. "Oh, don't worry baby... I feel the same thing. I'm badly smitten, and I won't never deny it."

Oh, oh my heart hurts so good

I love you, babe, so bad, so bad
