R-18 “Move your lips, baby. Kiss me.” He whispered, I felt his hands on my waist and the other to my hair, pressing me more unto his lips, I felt something weird on my stomach, that excitement I felt when we first did this, he was my first, and last, not until now. “Hold tight.” He carried me in his arms, towards the bedroom. His tongue fluttered against mine, and his hands were deep in the softness of my hair, and it was like time unspooled, carrying me right back to when we’re teenagers. He pulled me against him, thinking that he would never get I close enough, that if he could fold me inside of him, like a mother tucking a baby into her coat, he’d do it. He would keep me warm, he’d keep me safe, he’d keep me with him, always. I felt all these feelings, all these emotions are coming back. He manage to took of my clothes and left only just my underwear. I nibbled at his chin, his ear, touching his face with my fingertips, sighing, whispering, “You feel so good.” Once, I pushed him

“Shut up! Damn it! Are you really going to be my husband? Shut up, I’ll slap your face, stop it.” The girl with him continued to laugh, and I didn’t know what was happening. So, this girl is his cousin? Now that I’ve had a close look at her, she’s somehow familiar to me. I don’t know if she looks like someone else or if I’ve actually seen her before. “Damn it, Di! It’s me, Mar? Maricar? Seriously! The one who fought with you because I thought you had a crush on Marky! The basketball player from our campus!” That rang a bell, and I suddenly remembered and laughed. “So, you’re the one chatting with this crazy guy?” She’s the Maricar who was talking to this jerk, “I thought he had a girlfriend already, I was about to strangle him.” I joked, but I still looked at this guy in a bad way, he might be mine later. “Oh, so, are you and Baliesteros together?” I was referring to Mark, who was also a star player in basketball, just like Jaxon. Mark confessed to me years ago. We became close at

I don’t know if I should explain to mom now or later, I’m panicking because they suddenly appeared in front of my apartment. “Surprise, Ely!!” I immediately looked down at Sam, he’s ten years old now, and currently in grade three. I approached him quickly and pinched his chubby cheeks, “Ouch! Ely!” he exclaimed but I continued. “Oh, aren’t you going to let us in? We’ll just stand here?” mom said, I quickly reached out and took her hand, “God bless.” “Mom, well, I need to explain first.” She might really slap me when she finds out I have a guy inside and I’m dressed like this, I’m sure of that, I know my mom, unless you’ve been nice to her and made a good impression, but they haven’t met yet. “El, later, let us in first, it’s hot outside, hurry up, our bags are heavy.” I just sighed and sidestepped, widening the door a bit more, I closed it and followed them into the living room. “Love, who’s that?” Shit! Both mom and Sam stopped walking, I was ready to slap mom. “Wow! You two know

“You what?” I think I misheard what he said. He stood up and pressed something on the remote, and the color of the glass window changed again. “Sorry, but I can’t risk the information I’m about to disclose,” I just nodded as he did that, once he made sure everything was okay, he sat beside me. “I’m scared to tell you this, once I disclose this to you, your life will also be in danger, and I don’t want anything dangerous to happen to you.” “I’ll be even more helpless if you don’t tell me, it’s difficult to navigate in the dark, Jaxon. Every day, my mind is filled with more questions, so please tell me, even just what I need to know.” He nodded in response, I heard his deep sigh. “It all started when I was twelve years old, when my Mom died from a shootout while my dad was on duty, he became so busy, he hardly had time for me, he was always quiet, as if he was thinking something deeper than usual. When I turned fourteen, that’s when I discovered the truth about my mom’s death.” He st

“Jaxon, I need to go, I have to go to work!” We’ve been joking around here for a while now, I’m already ready and dressed, I need to go to work because I’ve been absent for two days. “Jaxon please, I’ll be late.” “Love, I can’t let you go until I find out who was following us yesterday.” I want to give in to him, but I really need to go to work, I feel sorry for my co-department who are left with the tasks that I should be doing. “Please?” I looked at him, he’s smiling, his eyes were hopeful. I smiled and kissed him. “Still a no.” I saw his face turn sad, but I just laughed and kissed him again, “Just accompany me, you have to look after me, since it’s your fault,” he stood up, so I hugged him, “You have to look after me, I know I have you.” Looks like he was not expecting that. But he managed to give me a warm smile, “Of course, I think I was born to protect you, for my whole life.” What the heck? “Cheesy!” he laughed and hugged me tighter, “Go, I’m giving you, uh,” I looked at m
