She's A Secret Agent?!✔

[ 24 ]

The booming music, the flashing lights, and the sweaty people grinding their bodies together registered to my senses. It was really hard focusing especially when Cross' hands never left my waist. Sinubukan kong umalis sa pagkakahawak niya pero walang effect. Nanatili ang kamay niya don sending electricity to my entire body. Kanina pa nga ako nanlalamig na ewan.

"One margaret" Cross ordered as we took a seat ng makalapit kami sa mini bar.

"Here we go" agad na nagsalin ang barista and slid it to Cross.

"Me too" sambit ko pero sinensyasan niya ang barista na wag.

"Nuh-uh. You couldn't" saad pa niya. I glared at him.

"At bakit naman, Mr. Villaverde? I can do whatever I want to in my life" giit ko.

"Well, because I think we should do what we are here for first" Cross tipped the glass on his lips. "Business first" he added. Gusto ko tuloy tusukin yang mga mata niya.

"Eh bakit ikaw?" Tukoy ko sa iniinom niya, shit galit na talaga ako sa mokong nato.

"Because I can, besides, I have high tolerance in alcohol" linagok niya ito and smugly smiled at me. Bwesit na lalaking to.

"Hey sup?"

Tinitigan ko ng masama si Daniel. Daniel raised his hands.

"Oh chill lang, M. Bakit ba bad trip ka? Wag kang mag-alala hindi ako nang-chix, loyal nga ako sayo" kinindatan pa ako ng mokong.

"Ewan ko sa inyo. Bwesit" I cursed.

"Whoah, Misak-

"Shut the fuck up, Cross. Wag kang epal" I glared once again at him. His face went hard. Mukhang na bad trip siya.

"Okay, have it your way Misaki" Tumayo siya at umalis. Umorder ako at agad na linagok iyon lahat. Bahala siya. Whatever.

"So, um, ano nang gagawin natin?"

Hindi ko pinansin si Daniel at umalis na rin.

Ugh.Red day ko pa naman wala ako sa mood. Umupo ako sa may table and grudgingly looked at the dancers on the floor. Mas lalo akong na-bwesit. So tinignan ko nalang ang possible entrance namin sa underground. Sabi ni Cross nasa left side naka-locate. Good. Walang bantay.

I looked for Cross and Daniel. They were nowhere to be found. Wala na sila sa mini bar and then I spotted Cross on the dance floor habang sinasayawan ng isang babae na may fake boobs. Oh anong nangyari sa 'business first' niya? Nakakabwesit ah.

"Hey, mind if we dance?"

A guy approached me wearing a sweet smile. Actually, kompara sa ibang nandito decente siya tingnan. He's wearing a simple V neck shirt and ripped jeans. Pero grabe ang appeal. But looks can be deceiving, baka rapist to. When he saw my hesitation, he held out his hand.

"Come on, I'm not gonna hurt you or anything. I'll just lift up your mood. You seem to be in a bad one. I'm Michael by the way" he says. I bit my lip and contemplated what to do.

A little dance wouldn't hurt.

"Okay. Sarah" I tried to smile at him matapos kong magpakilala as we both shook hands. Hinila na niya ako sa dancefloor and we started to dance in the rhythm.

Nakita kong nakatingin si Cross samin. Mas lalo pa siyang lumapit sa babae na mukhang nag-eenjoy naman sa pinagagawa niya at hinapit ang bewang nito. The girl giggled and damn gusto kong sabunutan ang babaeng yun.

What's wrong with me?

Michael and I got closer and, fudge, ang bango niya. Hinawakan niya ang bewang ko pero wala na akong pake don. Lalo na ng makita ko ang grim expression ni Cross. I smirked at giniling ang balakang ko. Michaels hands roamed from my waist to my hip. Tumalikod ako kay Michael and continued to dance. Sumandal ako kaunti sa dibdib niya and slowly slid down habang ginigiling ko parin ang balakang ko.

"Damn" Michael muttered under his breath.

Patuloy lang ako sa pagsasayaw ng may humila sakin papalayo kay Michael. It was Daniel.

"Hey-

"Get away from her" Daniel warned Michael. Magrereklamo sana ako pero pagtingin ko palang kay Daniel who was glaring at Michael. My mouth automatically shutted. Ngayon ko lang siya nakitang ganito. Daniel stared Michael down. Michael gave up first but was still glaring at him, pero bago siya umalis binigyan niya ako ng calling card niya.

"Call me" he winked and walked away. Tinignan ko naman ang binigay niya pero may humablot naman nito. I glared at Cross as he tossed it away.

"Let's go" tumalikod na siya at lumakad na paalis. Hayst. Di ko talaga ma-gets tong dalawa.

Hindi parin umalis sa pagkakahawak si Daniel sa kamay ko hanggang nakaabot na kami sa steel door leading to the underground.

"Daniel, you're the look out" Cross turned to Daniel and Daniel nodded in reply. Buti nalang nakasuot kami ng earpiece so communication wouldn't be a problem.

"Be careful there" paalala ni Daniel sakin. Tinanguan ko nalang siya as he let go of my hand. Hindi ko na hinintay pa si Cross as I pushed the steel door open and went inside. Bumaba na ako sa hagdanan as Cross followed me.

"Misaki" hindi ko siya pinansin and continued heading down. I kept my hand in my purse baka kasi may kalaban. The clicking of my stilletos were the only sound heard as the music outside fainted by the second. It's pretty dark here.

It's a contrast from the modern styled club. Here it's like were heading in the dungeon in the palace. Like, they even use fire stands (idk yun ba yung tawag nun) as light. Yung tipong makikita mo rin sa Minecraft. At the end of the stairs merong pintuan that was slightly ajar. I burst it open and held my gun up. Wala namang kalaban.

A hand rested on my shoulder.

Tinutok ko ang baril sa kaniya.

"Whoah" Cross backed away. I raised my eyebrow at him. Ibinaba ko ang baril ko at tinitigan siya. He's wearing a somewhat guilty look. Ano naman ba ang kailangan niya?

"Misaki, will you please stop pulling the silence treatment on me? I'm sorry. Okay? I don't know what had gotten on me" Cross scratched the back of his neck.

"Okay. It's fine. Sorry for being a brat earlier" I sighed trying to ignore the fact that Cross Villaverde is actually capable of saying sorry.

"Don't worry 'bout it. Just don't do that again" sabi pa niya.

"Do what?"

"Nothing. Hanapin nalang natin yung mapa" He avoided my gaze. I smirked.

I think I know what he meant.

Hmmmmm. *thinking emoji*.

Sino bet mo? Si Daniel or Cross para kay Misaki?
