"Love is like a rose. Every petal an illusion.
Every thorn a reality."

"Nabusog ka ba?" Tanong ni Lucio habang pinadausdos ang kanyang kamay sa kamay ko.
I love his little gestures.
Pinisil ko ang kamay niya habang mahinahong tumango nang nakangiti. Kakakain lang namin ng dinner sa isang restaurant at ngayon ay hinahatid na niya ako pauwi.
Sinulyapan ko ang mga kamay naming magkahawak. Inangat ko ang mga ito at hinalikan ang likod ng kamay niya.
Mahal na mahal kita...
He was slightly startled with what I did but smiled later on. He stopped walking and so I did too. Eksaktong nasa paanan kami ng Eiffel Tower. I gave a swift glance at the tower and saw its golden glow. It's beautiful.
"You're beautiful, Sylvia..." Bumalik agad ang tingin ko kay Lucio nang marinig ko ang boses niya.
Lumapit siya sa akin. "I can't wait for you to be my wife." Inangat niya ang baba ko at bago pa man ako makapagsalita ay naramdaman ko na ang malalambot niyang labi.
It was a quick peck on the lips but it made my heart crazy, and I wanted more. Nang naramdaman ko ang paglayo ng mukha niya ay hinila ko siya at hinalikan muli. I want to lose myself into his kisses.
I love you, Lucio, even if everything feels wrong.
We kissed for a while. I never wanted to stop but Lucio pulled away. He laughed quietly realizing that I still wanted more. Naramdaman ko ang pag-init ng aking mukha kaya tumalikod kaagad ako bago pa niya ito makita.
"Want me to go inside?" Panunukso niya nang makarating na kami sa bahay ko. Inirapan ko lang siya. "Biro lang," tawa niya.
Hinawakan niya ang magkabilang braso ko at hinalikan sa noo. Napapikit lang ako.
No... Don't leave.
"Bonne nuit, mon amour." Hinaplos niya ang mukha ko at naglakad palayo.
Kanina pa malakas ang tibok ng puso ko. Huminga ako ng malalim para pakalmahin ito pero walang epekto. Nasa labas pa rin ako ng bahay at nakatingin lang kay Lucio na palayo ng palayo na sa akin.
"Lucio!" Sigaw ko. I can't help it. I want him.
Tumakbo ako papunta sa kanya at ganoon din siya sa akin. Nang magkalapit na kami ay agad niya akong hinalikan. His kisses were fiery, passionate, and demanding. Hindi na ako nakapag-isip ng maayos.
The next thing I knew is we were inside my bedroom. Grinning, Lucio lifted me right off my feet, carried me towards the bed, bringing me down the mattress for a passion-filled kissed. We locked eyes for just a moment, just enough for us to feel safe with one another. My hand rested on his chest as he kissed me with more passion than I'd ever felt in my life.
I felt his hand move to the back of my dress, carefully unzipping it. I reached down to start unbuttoning his waistcoat and shirt since his blazer had been discarded before. He sat up so I could pull everything off, his lips placing soft kisses across my chest.
He flipped us both round before ridding me of my dress leaving me in no undergarments. I flipped back over after my dress was gone, his hands slid down the sides of my waist before they reached my butt. He leaned down kissing my shoulder, his lips trailing down my body causing shivers to erupt inside me. His hands roamed my body as if trying to memorize every inch of my skin. I ran my hand through his hair as he leaned down to kiss me, his lips being cautious with every move they took.
