Here we were, both naked under the sheets, cuddling. His right arm was under my head, his other arm wrapped around my waist and his legs trapped both of my legs. Really, he's a cuddler and I was not complaining.
The heat coming from his body was somehow comforting me... and very intimate.
"Also, are you really single? I mean, no official girlfriend?" I faced him. He was quick to give me a kiss on my cheek and then on my shoulder before nodding at me. "So, the woman last Tuesday— remember? You said it was urgent. She's not your girl?"
"Nope. We're just... hooking up."

I looked at my reflection in the mirror with satisfaction. I was wearing a black little dress, reaching half of my thighs. The long sleeves of my dress hugged my arms, showing a perfect line of symmetry. The low necklines showed enough skin and perfect cleavage to capture everyone's attention.I chose to wear light make-up with bright red lipstick. My high black pumps made my build more intimidating. My hair, curled at the end, hung freely on my back, following every move I made.This was definitely how a woman should look at a party. Beautiful and a complete head-turner.To complete my look, I put on a simple pair of black heart earrings. I smiled at my reflection for one last time before I exited my room."Finally! I thought your closet had swallowed you up," Bailey, m

I just followed where Rupert would take me since I didn't know anyone here aside from him and Bailey. Also, I couldn’t see anyone’s faces either. It was actually a bit stressful and frustrating for me to see a sea of blurred faces. Sooner or later, for sure I would lose my energy due to stress. That's one downside of prosopagnosia. The frustrations of not seeing the people we interacted with, especially in large crowds, could lead to high levels of stress and cause us extreme fatigue. But thanks to Rupert, the frustrations were more tolerable. He was so attentive to me. He was talking way too much than he used to. “I’ll introduce you to some of my friends slash brothers in Phantoms Omega,” Rupert said as we crossed the sea of people. A few more walks, we arrived at a part of the house that was a bit calmer and softer. It was a room on the second floor with blinding lights but with lesser people. There was a long U-shaped sofa in the middle of the room and in t

Rupert brought me to the room next to the room where we left his friends. When we entered, he immediately captured my lips for a scorching hot kiss. Both of his arms held my waist, my chest was pressed against his."Hmnn…" My fingers combed his hair as I responded to his kiss with the same ferocity. The warmth coming from his body transmigrated to mine, igniting the desire within me.I gasped when Rupert gently pushed me until the back of my knees hit the end of the bed. Slowly, I sat on the bed behind me, heaving heavy breaths while watching Rupert’s next movements.He immediately zipped down his pants and tugged it down along with his undergarment. I was in awe and still slightly embarrassed when his manhood sprung open in front of me. My right hand auto

When the dreamer did not stop, the dream was not impossible to reach. That's what Mom always told me when she was still alive and I carried that principle with me in everything I do. Probably it’s the reason why I decided to try again — even though I was a little late — I would still try to compete again in the debate competition. This time, I would make sure to make it to the nationals. Today is Monday and I am up to get one of the remaining two spots for the roster of the official debate team. I want to compete in the regional interscholastic debate competition that is happening in a few weeks. "Hey, Meredith! Hey!" I turned around to see the person calling me. It took me a few seconds before I recognized that distinct pixie cut hair with blue highlights and the only tall guy I know on this campus. It's Minzy and David. Like Cherry, I was with them as a freshman in joining Alpha Battuere. They were the people I was supposed to compete with during the natio

Gelo and I returned to the venue. At exactly one o'clock in the afternoon, the list of the auditionees who made it to the top twenty would be announced. We still have fifteen minutes to spare, so I decided to go to the bathroom to pee.I left Gelo with my org mates and made my way to the nearest bathroom. After that, I exited the girl's restroom only to be greeted by Rupert. He was leaning on the wall beside the restroom, arms crossed over his shoulders, and seemed like waiting for someone.What was he doing here?My forehead furrowed. Obviously, he's waiting for someone... But who?I looked inside the restroom again but no one else was there. So, I stood in front of him to ask him but I was shocked at the next thin

"What do you hate about the country?" How many times had I blinked at Ma'am Juliet's question. My org mates told me, we're going to deal with a pressing question, most probably regarding current affairs or news— I expected them to hear facts from me. But ... I didn't know they would ask for my opinion which was very ... Subjective in nature. "Yes?" "Yes?" Sir Romeo smirked at me. "Is that how a debater should answer once asked a question?" I swallowed and immediately placed both my hands behind my back. It took all the remaining courage in me to not avert my eyes. Once I do that, this is done. I shook my head immediately before standing up straight. I looked at each of the people sitting on the panel— straight to their eyes while my mind was giving me a list of answers. My hands were shaking behind my back and I admitted I was so nervous, right now. This felt like I was back to start— to the most basic thing about being a debater; that was to prese

"Are we okay now?" Rupert's strong set of arms wrapped around my waist. His familiar natural manly scent invaded my nostrils. "I hope we're really okay now, Meredith." Then he let go, only to get the small towel around my shoulders and started drying my long hair.I was standing in front of a full-length mirror inside Rupert's bathroom. We just finished showering. I watched what he's doing to my hair— he's being careful and gentle."Don't overthink about us, Meredith Kaye. I am here and you are here. We're enjoying this. Isn't that’s why we're here?" He met my gaze in the mirror as he continued to dry my hair. I could see the hunger and lust in his eyes when his gaze went to my protruding nipples under the big shirt I was wearing. I decided not to wear nipple tapes. I mean, it's not necessary. "Let's just take everything

"I'm just asking," he said, after a few seconds of silence between us. He chuckled before he let go of my face. He took a step back before running his hand through his hair."Why did you suddenly ask that question?" I averted my eyes as my heart beat faster. I was not sure why did I feel like this ... That question shook me and completely caught me off guard."This is a no-strings-attached kind of set-up. I am aware of that, Meredith. You don't have to worry," he answered, walking to the refrigerator. He opened it and started rummaging for something to cook. I stared at his back. I could sense his tension because of his stiffed shoulders. "I just suddenly thought of the question. I mean, what if I asked that to Ava? What can she answer me."I was stunned by what he said. The giddy and tingly feeling I felt instantly vanished and was replaced by bitter realization. That's right. I shouldn’t be affected. I shouldn’t react like this. We both only wanted the pleasure and sex in this conve

"Rupert?" I was stunned to see Rupert entering our bedroom. My eyebrows went up as soon as he finished closing the door, he next took off his necktie. "Aren't you on duty now in the emergency room, Dr. Santos?" I got up from lying down and sat on the end of the bed. It's already eight PM and my husband is in his second year residency— and he told me he was on duty in the emergency room of their hospital tonight. "I miss you, my dear wife." He then took off his long sleeves and dropped his hands on the button of his pants. "Emergency room isn't busy. Someone relieved me. Can you believe how lucky I am?" I chuckled, realizing how my husband never really wasted any time. I could hear the playfulness in his voice. The way he was walking slowly— very very slowly— towards me as if he was strip-teasing in front of me made me laugh so hard. "We’re too old to do that, Rupert!" I got up from the bed and approached him. I grinned when he cussed under his breath. I immediately knelt down in
I See You, Rockstar Ever After
"How are you? I hope you're doing fine there. Please, be happy wherever you are." I was standing beside Rupert as he talked to Ava. He was sitting on the grass opposite its tomb. After finding out that he was the same man I called an asshole a year ago, he asked me to stay for a while— because he was supposed to talk to Ava. And so, here we are. I was watching him as he talked to his first love. In my hand, I was holding a bunch of roses. "I want you to meet her." Rupert turned to look at me. I was not sure if he's grinning or what. But when he stood next to me and held my hand tightly, I couldn't help but smile. "She's Meredith Kaye Santiago, the woman I will marry and will spend the rest of my life with. Isn't she beautiful? She's also an inspiring woman and she's a fighter. I'm actually proud of her. I love her so much , Ava. " My mouth dropped open at what Rupert was saying. When he raised my hand and pointed at the ring on my finger as if showing it off to his first love mad
I See You, Rockstar Vulnerability of Humans
"Loving someone is a manifestation of human's vulnerability; the risk of hurting someone and being hurt by another person." I smiled before my eyes searched for Rupert's seat in the audience area. "We lost, we burned and we got hurt ... But we can't deny the fact that this abstract thing called love is the connection we need as a social being. Without love, this life will be meaningless. Without love, this world will be cruel. Without love, I wouldn't be able to stand on this stage and carry on in this debate. My love for debate is what kept me going and the love of the people around me is what motivated me to not surrender. " Love is being vulnerable. And although many of us get hurt after loving someone, "The important thing is the lessons we learned and the memories we had with the person who made us happy. So, it is still better to love even though you might lose. Because a quitter will never be a winner but a loser can eventually win. Same goes with love, to be brave is the only
I See You, Rockstar Sleep and Rest
Everyone was here. Everyone who was important to me came. My dad, Aunt Bernadeth, Bailey, Eian, Uncle Greg, Gelo and my debate team, my coaches and Rupert’s father. I was wearing a simple white dress reaching just above my knees. My long hair was falling freely behind my back. Rupert was wearing a simple all-white suit and I know he looked good in it. I looked at Rupert who was holding my hand. I smiled at him while tears were welling up in my eyes. I couldn't clearly see his face aside from the shiny metal ring on his lips. It's frustrating and ever since the wedding ceremony started, I keep wishing to see his face on this special moment. "Meredith Kaye Santiago," he slid the wedding ring on my finger, "you're so beautiful." I giggled. He was supposed to say his vow but here he was, complimenting me for the nth time. "Proceed to your vow, Mr. Santos. I'm quite tired," I murmured before winking at him. That's the truth. After the debate, I couldn’t deny how weak I was feeling n
I See You, Rockstar Choosing to Live
I looked at Rupert who was sitting on the front seat of the audience area. Next to him were Bailey, Sir Romeo and Ma'am Juliet. On his lap was a large handbag full of my things; my lunch, some extra t-shirts, and medicines. He was in an unusually clean casual today— neat white polo with casual jeans and rubber shoes. His curly brown hair was put in a fixed brush up style.So I was no longer surprised that every woman we met entering the venue was attracted to him."Are you ready, Meredith?" Cherry asked me, holding my right arm to assist me.I chuckled before I freed myself from her hold. "I'm okay, Che. You don't have to worry.""But you had a nose bleed earlier. If you don't want Cherry to support you, let me," Minzy argued.I immediately shook my head. "Please don't treat me like a weak patient. I don't want to remember my condition on this important day."Cherry and Minzy were stunned. David put his arm around Minzy and ruffled her hair. "Let's focus on the competition. We have to
I See You, Rockstar One Year Ago
One year ago …"Congrats, Edith. A year has passed. I don't think you should worry anymore. Everything is going to be okay from here.”I looked at Bailey because of what she said. I nudged her side before getting off of the car's passenger seat. I turned around at the driver's seat and then peeked at the window. "Five years, Bailey. Eian said— I mean Dr. Baller, I have to be healthy for five years straight to say I don't really have cancer anymore," I reminded her before sighing a deep breath."One year was still a long time," she replied to me before patting my forehead. "It's not because the standards are five years to say you're cancer free, you're invalidating the one year you're healthy. You should be thankful for that."I frowned at her before playfully swatting her hand away which was patting me like a kid. "One year is only twenty percent of the five years. A lot more can happen. I still can't figure it out. My cancer can still come back.""Stop your negativity. You're ruining
I See You, Rockstar Plot twist
"I have to undergo chemo and then surgery to remove my tumor. Then, I have to undergo radiotherapy after the surgery." "I will hold your hand throughout those treatments, Meredith. I will always be waiting for you outside the therapy room and the surgery room," he said, making me immediately smile even more. He interlaced our fingers together and then kissed the back of my hand. "After your treatment, we will have our church wedding." I took a deep breath. I needed to tell him. "My doctor suggested mastectomy." He stiffened. And that scared me. "My doctor said I am susceptible to the recurrence of my cancer because of my genes. He thinks mastectomy can be a help to free myself from the curse of cancer. Both of my breasts will be removed," I said without even blinking an eye. He was silent and the bitter feeling instantly caved in. He removed his head from leaning on my shoulder and he also let go of my hand. My eyes immediately stung. When he faced me, I was quick to lower my

"This is more emotionally and mentally difficult than what I thought. I cried a lot last night. It's hard to accept it. It's hard to believe it." I chuckled, placing my hand on top of the white marble. I traced her etched name on the surface as if I was touching her face. "Mom, do you think I can handle it again? Can I survive for the second time around? I am hurting Papa again."I sighed before a small smile returned to my lips. I was sitting on the grass, across from my mother’s grave. Yesterday, my biopsy result revealed that my cancer came back and I had to deal with it again. Rupert was there with me to receive the bad news. But I asked him to leave and give me my 'me' time to process everything."I met a guy, Ma. His name is Rupert. I've done a lot of crazy things with him and I'm sure you're going to scold me big time if you’re still here," I laughed at my own story. The first day I met Rupert came back. He was my definition of living freely back then. I took the risk with him
I See You, Rockstar Acceptance
I slowly walked into the hospital church. I expected it but it still hurts. My biopsy results stated it was malignant and the stage of my cancer was in grade two or three. Further tests would be conducted to assess my cancer's grade. Eian suggested mastectomy again as my only way to free myself from the curse of cancer. I think that's what bugs me the most. Wasn’t it enough that I would go through the fight against cancer again? Why did I even have to remove my breasts? When I was in the first row of seats, my cellphone in my pocket vibrated. I checked it and my heart ached to see my Dad's name on the caller ID. "I'm sorry, Pa." I turned off my phone. Right now, I wanted to be alone first. I wanted to deal with the turmoil in my mind and the heavy pain in my heart by my own. I just wanted a time to accept my biopsy results. I sat on the empty pew in the second row and turned my gaze at the big cross in the middle of the church's altar. The hands on my lap turned into fists whi
