Winning Hurricane

XIV - Alprazolam

Usual's one of the high-end bar located near our University. It was designed like an old mansion from the outside but very luxurious inside. It screams elegance and wildness. It's like a heaven to party-goers but hell to introverts.

And tonight.. it was both for me.

Ansel and I arrived a little bit late dahil nag-tagal na naman kami sa pag-aayos ni Ansel. She dressed up as Mariposa, the Barbie.. and well, I dressed up as Chucky the evil doll which Ansel found so hilarious.

While everyone's wearing costumes like they're walking down the runway for Victoria Secret as models, me and my bestfriend decided to appear as some dorky kid who took the party literally but hey dito kami masaya!

"Hindi ko sila makita!"

Ansel's trying to look for our friends, hindi ko napigilan hindi kumuha ng vodka sa dumaang server. I suddenly felt like an outcast, why the hell am I wearing Chucky costume again?!

"OMG! There they are!" Agad akong hinila ni Ansel papunta sa VIP area sa second landing. Medyo secluded sa mga tao sa baba. Inalis ko kaagad ang pagkakahawak sakin ni Ansel dahil tinatamaan ako ng wings niya. Geez.

"Hey guys!"

About twenty heads turned to face us and they all made the same reaction. Jaw dropped.. then laughter. Laughter everywhere!

"Hey Chucky, wanna play?!" Andrei mocked, tinignan ko lang siya then he awkwardly laughed at his own joke. Tss.

"My Chandy!" Cy laughed as he patted my head na agad kong pinalis. He's dressed up as Captain Jack Sparrow tonight and he nailed it. "You really pull off that Chucky costume." He winked, wrapping his arms around my shoulder na agad ko ulit inalis.

I roamed my eyes around.. searching for a.. shadow-crap, searching for him. Hindi ba siya a-attend? Akala ko sasama siya? He even told me in passing to dress up as a doll. He did tell it four times that's why Chucky appeared in my brilliant mind!

"Oh-em! Is that Jonas?" Ansel asked looking behind me.

Agad akong napalingon and there I saw Jonas dressed up as-I don't know-he's wearing a suit with a fake moustache and he really looks so hot there. His hands interlocked with a girl wearing a black sexy cat costume. Damn. Why the hell his current girl does look so hot right now?

"Tae. Girl, mag-tago ka nga sa restroom!" Ansel whispered, panicking as she tried pushing me off the sofa!

"Why?"

"Nakakahiya outfit mo! Mukha kang tanga seriously."

"Wag ka ngang harsh kay Chandy but babe you really don't want him to see you looking like that tonight."

Damn it! I really don't have any more feelings for Jonas but c'mon he's my first boyfriend and he's with a hot girl-and I look.. shit!

I cleared my throat bago pasimpleng pumunta sa restroom, trying my best na hindi makita ni Jonas when someone blocked my way! Agad akong napatingin sa naka-ngising Hurricane!

My eyes flew back to Jonas who is almost near, "Give way,"

"You don't wanna play Chucky?" he playfully asked stifling his laugh.

"Move."

Then my eyes turned to Jonas again, because of that napalingon din si Hurricane and just like some realization hit him he looked back at me "Jonas, tsk!" he murmured shaking his head as he pulled me out from the VIP area without my ex noticing me.

His hands were hot and slightly shaking but his grip around my wrist secure me from the sudden train of anxiety caused by Jonas' sudden presence. It's like he got me. He always got me.
