CHAPTER 5: First Kiss

"Excuse me! Bestfriends niya kami malamang! Eh kayo?" Suzy said while crossing her arms. The other girls agree to her.

"Come on, Xelize. Seriously? Hindi mo ba ako kilala lalo na ang kasama ko? Ang kapated ko?" nakangiti nitong sabi at tiningnan ang katabi nito.

They're siblings?

Nanatili akong nakatitig sa kanila. This girl have a Goddess beauty. Her skin is white as milk, pointed nose, long black hair, long eyeslash that paired in two brown eyes.

Same to the guy beside her. But their eyes... Are they wearing contact lense? Nalipat naman ang tingin ko sa kasama nila, ang tatlong lalake. Gano'n din sila. Mapuputi, may itsura at napansin ko ang tatlo ding babae.

They all look couples.

"Oh! I forgot, my bad..." asik nito sa harap ko.

I look at her at hindi ko maiwasang mapakunot noo. What's wrong with her?

"A attention seeker like you forget about my brother Vladimir just because you got an accident?" Nakataas kilay itong tumingin sa akin.

"Hoy! Babaeng gatas! Na coma din kaya siya ng 2 years!" Rafaela shouted.

"Shut up! I'm not talking to you!" mahina pero madiing sabi nito bago ulit ako tiningnan nito at ngumiti ng matamis.

"Here, meet my brother, again. I know he treat you so bad na nagmumukha ka ng aso sa pagiging desperada. Ito na, napansin kana ng kapated ko." Nakangisi naman ito sa akin.

Magsasalita sana ako pero napalingon na lang ako sa likod ko ng may humawak sa pulsuhan ko.

"She will never talk to you guys ever again! Maggragraduate na nga lang tayo, nangbubully padin kayo. Come on Xelize, let's go! Stay away from those vampire weirdos!" Naiinis naman akong hinila ni Suzy.

I'm confuse. She said I am a desperate and a attention seeker? Really? Gosh! Naisipan ko na lang na sumama kila Suzy pero hindi pa man ako nakakatatlong hakbang nang may humawak sa akin.

"We need to talk," he whispered on my back. I was stunned and couldn't move. Vladimir... I remember those husky voice of him before I woke up... Before he s*ck my neck, that voice...

"Ano ba! Vladimir, bitawan mo si Xelize," Naiinis na saad ni Selene at hinila ako nito palapit sa kanila pero hinila din ako ni Vladimir.

Malakas ang pagkakahila nito sa akin dahilan kaya napabitaw ako kila Selene at tuluyang nagkadikit ang katawan namin ni Vladimir.

He smell like strawberry... This scent... Ito yung bango niya tuwing lalapit siya sa akin. Hindi kaya iisa sila?

"I need to talk to your friend," he said, coldly.

"Vlad," I called him.

I slowly turn my gaze to him. Doon, nakasalubong ko ang mga mata nito. His wearing a contact lense and this time, I know I'm right.

Nakipagtitigan lang ako sa kaniya, hindi inaalis ang pagkakatitig sa kaniya.

I miss his presence and I am really longing for his arms! I miss the way he look at me with those cold red flaming eyes. The way he talk, the way he whispered on my back, on my ears... I really miss everything about him, I really did.

And now, I'm facing the reality. Where Vladimir really exist and now, he's infront of me.

While staring straight to his eyes, I suddenly felt dizzy. I slowly closed my eyes and once look at him, there I saw his red flaming eyes staring at me like he was saying, "I'm already here..."

"Vladimir, my husband." That was the last word came out on my mouth before I lost my conscious.

I slowly opened my eyes and hold my head. Gosh! It hurts! Parang binibiyak ang ulo ko sa sobrang sakit, pagod din ang katawan ko na nakahiga sa higaan.

"What happened?" I asked.

"Gladly you're awake, my wife. I'm sorry for what I did, I lost my control and starts to hurt you," nag aalala nitong sabi.

Ito ang unang beses na nakita ko itong nag aalala. Nagtataka man ako at gusto ko magtanong kung ano ang nangyari, pinilit ko na lang ang utak ko na alalahanin ang nangyari.

Nahihiya itong nagsalita, "I drink your blood."

I look at him in shocked. So it wasn't just an ordinary dream! He was really a vampire!

I was about to talk when I noticed that I wasn't in my room. Wait? Did I go back to my dream?

"Wife, are you mad?" he asked.

Nakakapagtaka. Hindi kaya iyon panaginip at ito mismo ang katotohanan? Wait, it's impossible! Mababait ang mga magulang ko doon while in this world, my parents are cruel and selfish!

Nabalik ako sa ulirat ng maramdaman ang pagpisil sa kamay ko. Napatingin ako sa kamay ko at lumipat ito kay Vladimir.

He was quiet sad, those eyes are so lonely. What happened to this guy?

"Please wife, I'm sorry if I make you mad. I lost my control and I couldn't help myself, I'm so weak that time and I really need your blood..." mahabang paliwanag nito.

"Vladimir," I called him.

"Hmm?" he moaned as a response.

"I'm not mad at you but I missed you." I said and hugged him.

"I thought this is just all a dream. I thought hindi na kita makikita o mahahawakan pa. I had a dream, there I saw you and you have a sister. He was really like you, you have the same face and red flaming eyes." I said while sobbing.

I really miss this guy. I don't wanna sleep again. If I sleep, I will woke up again on that dream.

"Wife," he whispered.

I stop from sobbing and look at him.

"No matter what happen, no matter what place where you are just don't forget about me. I bought you not because I want you to be my pet but I bought the whole you to be my wife, to be my priority and you are mine. Understood? You are only mine, no one can touch you or kiss that lips of yours except for me." Malamig man itong magsalita pero alam kong galing sa puso nito sinabi iyon.

"I-I know..." I responded.

He holds my chin and stare at my eyes. He wiped my tears and smile at me. I smiled back and saw how his eyes turn into brown.

"Vlad, your eyes..." I whispered.

"Don't mind them, pet." He said while smiling.

And the next thing I knew, he was kissing me passionately. I closed my eyes and response to his kisses.

He was my first kiss.

"Wahh!! Gising na din siya!" sigaw ng kung sino.

Dahan dahan kong iminulat ang mga mata ko at kahit nanglalabo ito ay iniikot ko padin ang paningin ko sa silid na ito.

"Oh, good you're awake! Pinag alala mo kami, Xelize!" Selene said while biting her lips.

I roamed my eyes again and I was expecting to see Vladimir but my eyes couldn't find him!

Where is he? I need him... I need to ask him what's happening and ask him if he knows about me, being his wife!

I am not just a wife for him but as he said, I was his pet, his only priority.
