Jay-jay's POV
I slowly turned to Keifer, meeting his eyes. We didn't say anything, we didn't have to.
Is this how it feels like to be in love?... Whatever it is, I love it.
He raised his hand, a mid stop before placing it on my shoulder. I leaned my head onto his shoulder, smiling.
Everything was going well, until...
"Idiots in loveeee." Kristine teased, smirking.
"They're married in my mind." Ci-N stated, patting his chest, acting all serious.
Kris gasped, raising her hand. Now you might think it was to smack Ci, but.
"SAMEPITCH!" She gave him a high-five, shouting.
"Ahheemmm... Ahhhemmm." I cleared my threat, sitting up.
I scratched my head, trying to act all normal. Reminder: trying.
"Don't be shy, Jay... everyone knows that we're gonna get married—"
I smacked his hand, not hard enough to hurt, but just to shut him up.
"You're not helping." I pouted, crossing my arms.
Oh lord, why am I friends with these ulupongs? What did I even do to deserve this...???
My thoughts were cut off halfway as Ci-N shoted, "WOW, LOOK UP!"
I slowly looked up, swinging my legs.
"IT'S A SHOOTING STAR!" Ci shouted, excitedly.
"Guys, let's make a wish." Kris suggested, turning to everyone. "Fast!"
We all joined our hands together, closing our eyes.
Jay-jay's wish- [God, please let someone treat me lechon at an all-you-can-eat buffet. More food=More happiness.]
Keifer's wish- [I just hope that I can have a peaceful life, with my dearest Jay-jay. Let her have the best time with me and others, don't let anyone steal her from me. Thank you.]
Ci-N's wish- [Mr. God, please let me get the PS6 just right after it's release. I promise, that's it. Oh wait, that's not it... I wanna marry Rakki, That's it.. bye.]
Kristine's wish- [Oh lord, I just want everyone to have a peaceful life, and also just make my relatives disappear, they ain't making my life any better. That's it, Bah-bye. Or Goodbye. Or Goodnight. Ughhh, or maybe Good Morning. Whatever.]
I peeked at everyone after making my wish. They all looked so serious, praying for what they needed. Except for Ci-N, of course. I know what he wants, another gaming stuff.
After everyone made their wishes, I turned to them one by one. "What did you guys wish for?" I asked, curious.
"You'll know.." Keifer replied, smirking.
What if I rip that sweet lip for your so that you wouldn't give me a cheesy smirk again?
Sweet lip? Jay-jay, what are you even thinking!
"Something harsh." Kristine muttered, nodding her head, looking all innocent.
"Harsh? What did you wish for, World War III?" I asked, crossing my arms.
"Ehh... something related. Except, they would've been the reason World War III happen." She replied, serious. No 'Just kidding!', No 'JK!'.. wait aren't they the same—Whatever!
"The hell did you wish for?" I raised my eyesbrows at her, standing up.
She turned to me and pulled her tongue out. "You'll never know!"
"Plus," She added. "Ain't that... Profanity?" She turned to Keifer.
What Profanity?—HOLY SH*T!
"N-no... what're you talking about?" I replied, acting all... you know, innocent.
"It's alright, Jay. Don't be shy." Ci-N advised.
"S-shy? Why would I be... shy?" I asked, slowly taking steps backward.
Keifer stood up, hands on his hips. "You know, guys... it's alright of she doesn't want to." He muttered, looking at them.
"Ano?" Kristine asked, standing up. (What)
"Yeah... But, you still owe me one." Keifer turned to me, winking.
I rolled me eyes, crossing my arms.
"Aww... you're not working." Ci-N pouted.
Idiots. Bunch of Idiots. How do they even enjoy this?
"Come one now, get up... let's go back." I suggested, walking toward them.
Ci-N groaned, swinging his legs. "Why now?"
"Because, we would be dead meat if we don't arrive by at least eleven!" I replied, pouring some sense into him.
"Can't we just stay here, please?" Kris pleased, joining her palms together.
Honestly, I looked like I was babysitting them. Worse, acting like their mother.
"No... my decision is final."
Ci-N groaned louder, swinging his hands.
"Come on, guys... it's almost ten." Keifer joined in.
"Fine.." Kristine said, trying to get up. "Who.. get up."
"Nope."
"Why not?" I asked, already frustrated.
Then guess what he started to do...
"Weehhhhhhhh." Ci-N sobbed, tearing up. "Keifer, Kris... Jay-jay's mad at me."
"Oh my god." Kristine pinched the tip of her nose.
"This ain't going nowhere." I sighed, turning to Keifer who was already consoling Ci-N.
"Ci-N, I sweat to god... I'll buy you some chocolates if you eat with us." Kristine suggested, which as you guys imagined, Ci agreed.
__________✮__________
The car ride wasn't long, it was quiet. But the scenery was amazing. I got see lights all over the town, pastry shops.. which made me hungry again. But I held it in. We can't stop now... it's too late for that. I already know what's gonna happen when I'm home, I'm all prepared.
Keifer parked the car a few hundred metres from our home. But it was okay, I don't want Aries to see anything. We could just say that... we were dropped by a cab or something.
I sighed, slowly stepping out from the car.
"Ci-N, wake up.. we're home." Kristine patted Ci-N's cheek. "Oh, come on... we don't care to carry him.. do we?" She turned to me and Keifer.
Welp... that still reminds as a question.
Kristine struggled to pull Ci out of the car but still managed to.
"You both go ahead, I'll follow y'all."
"Does that mean, I've to take care of this alone?—" Then she turned to Keifer, which I assume that they were signalling eachother. "Ohh... y-yeah, sure. Take care—Or whatever. Good night, babes!"
She turned her back on us. "Babes?" She asked herself, whispering.
I chuckled, turning back to Keifer. "Thank you... for today."
"A-ahh... yeah, you're welcome." He replied, scratching the back of his neck.
I nodded, hand on my back. "So.. what now?"
What now? Seriously, Jay?
"I-I don't know."
"W-well..." I pointed at my house. "Kuya could be waiting. Good night." I turned my back on him.
"Wait!" He caught my hand. "Before you go."
He leaned in, which I thought was for something else...
I closed my eyes, accepting whatever was waiting for me.
Seconds passed, nothing happened.
Ehh? What's going on?
I slowly opened my eyes, just to see the idiot giggling.
"W-what?" I asked.
"Nothing... it's just funny."
It's gonna be real funny when I reshape you nose.
"I'm leaving—"
I couldn't even finish the sentence when he planted a kiss on my lip.
Oh my god... Why is my heart beating faster. Well... isn't it obvious Jay? You're kissing someone, and it is normal for you heart to be like that! Am I this dumb?
He pulled back, smiling. Before planting another kiss on my head.
I smiled back at him, why is it so hot here?
"I'll get going.. bye." I waved at him, before running toward my house.
