To Fall Apart

Chapter 24

"Hey, you ready?" I asked Van excitedly as I straddle him.

Mabilis binaba ni Van ang cellphone nya at pinupulot ang kamay sa baywang ko. I pouted to hide my smile at that.

"Yep."

"How ready?"

"Super ready."

Lumawak ang ngiti ko sa sinabi nya. Van start to draw circles on my lower back and I can literally feel the electricity because of his touch.

"How about excited?

"Super excited." he said lazily. Umirap ako at hinayaan na lang sya.

I smiled widely at him.

"Good then, because I am super ready and super excited on your final game too!" I exclaimed and Van chuckled at me.

Sinubukan kong kumalas mula sa yakap nya pero pinirmi nya ang mga kamay nya sa baywang ko. I looked at him and his sleepy eyes darted on me. He looks really tired. Sabagay, he practiced a lot these past few days.

"You look tired."

"Pacharge muna." he said then pulled me into his chest. Humigpit ang yakap ni Van sa akin. He kissed the top of my head and then his body relaxed.

"My banners are ready, my uniform and props are also ready. You should bring it all on." I said.

Natigil si Van sa pagguhit ng kung ano sa likod ko sandali bago ulit nagpatuloy.

"You, what?" he asked confused. Umahon ako mula sa yakap nya. I smiled at him.

"Supportive girlfriend and bestfriend present." I said. Tumaas ang kilay sa akin ni Van.

"You did that for me?"

"Hell yes."

"Patingin."

"Hindi pwede, surprise yon."

Nanliit ang mata ni Van sa akin pero hindi ko sya pinansin.

"What uniform?"

"Secret."

"C'mon Andy." he said rolling his eyes. I laughed at him.

"Why? You're afraid I might embarrassed you? Shouting your name holding those in the midde of the crowd?" I asked arching my brows.

Tumaas din ang kilay ni Van sa akin. Napatili ako ng bigla nya akong hilahin pabalik sa dibdib nya. His lips landed on my ears. Biglang nagtayuan ang mga balahibo ko.

"No."

"Hmm, then why?"

"Because I might stare at you the whole game instead of playing. My girl cheering for me. Damn, that's.... That's awesome." he said appreciatively.

Lumawak ang ngiti ko bago nag-angat ng tingin sa kanya.

"Sure ka ha. Walang sisihan?"

He licked his lips before nodding at me.

"I want you to wear my surname."

"Huh?" I asked, confused.

"Wear my jersey on the game. To remind those motherfuckers that you're mine."
