Every Beat of You

A concert?I’ve never been in to a concert, though I watch some on YouTube. But to be personally watching it in front of your eyes? That’s a big no. I hate crowded places, so I’m not fond of concerts.The crowds were massive. I can hear the cheering and hollering coming from the crowds. Everything around me were chaotic. People are hyping up to the music while jumping together with banners on their hands. It’s suffocating me.I heaved a deep sigh. Too crowded. “Elite Band!”“I love you guys!”“We Elites love you!”My eyes fell on the camera that I’m holding. I lifted my head to the big stage, squinting my eyes. The stage lighting hit my face and I groaned in annoyance. That’s why I hate concerts. The lights were an eyesore.I raised my camera and adjusted the settings while facing it to the band’s direction. Sighing, I began taking pictures of t

Grey eyes.“Amber!”I blink. “What?”Sadie’s worried face met my sight. “What’s wrong with you?”I shake my head. “I’m just sleepy.”She arched her eyebrow. “They told me that you went into your cousin’s club room.”“Yeah,” I lazily answered. “Had to fetch someone who seemed to be getting fond of talking with my cousin.”As if in a cue a loud voice echoed between us.“I’m just asking him about something!” Adira snorted. “Well, you are too.”“What about me?” I sighed and rested my head on the wall. “You’re spacing out since we left their club room,” she wiggled her eyebrows. “Got affected by Captain?”I cleared my throat and compose myself before looking at her with my emotionless face. She’s so nosy. She notices everything. Now, I regretted

“Let’s wrap it up!”A soft yawn escaped into my lips while I massaged my neck. We finished our shooting with the Alpha team. Glad that they are all cooperative. But there are times that I want to taped their mouths because of their loudness.I glanced at my wrist watch only to see that it’s already eight in the evening. We spent that long, huh? Sighing, I sat on the Bermuda grass spreading both of my legs. I groaned as I closed my eyes in tiredness.“You’ll get cold.”Before I open my eyes to see who it was, I felt a warm thing on my shoulders.“Martinez,” I mouthed then open my eyes.He was looking down on me, holding a tumbler on his left hand. My eyes fixated on his wet chest. I cleared my throat then look away. Such a tease.“Are you hungry, Rojas?”I bit my lip. And now, he’s calling me by my surname.“Obviously,” I said without look

My heart couldn’t stop beating. This guy instantly affected my whole being without even putting so much effort in it. I’m good at hiding what I feel, but right now—I’m about to explode.How did he make me feel this?His grey eyes stared at me. I remained silent and ignored him. My cousin was looking at me with his menacing stare. I must ignore him and stay away from him. That’s the safest thing to do.“Missy,” he called me. “I believe we have something to talk about.”I didn’t respond and looked away. He’s acting weird, or maybe I’m the who's acting like that. Can he just get lost?I turned to Adira. “Let’s go.”“Cariño.”I bit my lower lip hard. I squeezed my eyes tightly while calming myself. He should stop this. He should stop being this close to me.Because being with me will just put him in the darkness that was his

I was standing nervously in front of his room. I had been deciding for a while if I should knock. I'm just going to give this food to him, but here I am standing for about fifteen minutes in front of the door.My mind was still wandering about what his sister told me. She caught me off-guard by her words just like his brother. Both of them have the ability to do that to a person."You can do this," I mumbled.I squeezed my eyes shut as I took a deep breath. I knocked on the door while holding my breath. My forehead creased when I didn't receive any response from him. I faced palm and pressed my lips when I realized that he's sleeping.Estúpido Amber!I turn the doorknob and quietly enter the door and slowly closed it. His manly scent filled the room. I wandered my eyes around the corner of his room. It looks masculine. You can already say that it belongs to a man.The room gives away his bachelorhood. Everything is functional. His roo
