SHE FELT no regret. Iyon ang napagtanto niya habang nakatingin kay Harrison na natutulog sa kanyang tabi. Last night was wonderful, she did not expected that she would experience such ecstasy.
She still couldn't believe that they did it, they've crossed every bridge that needed to be cross, and now there's no going back.
Tara took the next moment staring silently at Harrison, who had a dark circle around his eyes and a bruise on the side of his jaw, but those don't make him dreadful. How come that he looked so good while sleeping, tila isang maamong tupa. And when she remembered what they did, she shivered as coldness and hotness ran down her spine at the same time. His hands and lips were on her body, and his flesh was buried deep inside her. Her cheeks flushed with the fact that she responded boldly to his lovemaking.
Her wet dreams did not give her justice, last night was beyond euphoric that she almost couldn't take it.
"Don't stare at me too much, baka matunaw ang kaguwapuhan ko."
Tara gasped mentally when he spoke and the side of his lips stretch in a smile. Naramdaman niya ang pag-iinit ng mukha dahil sa pagkahuli kaya pasimple siyang umiwas bago pa nito buksan ang mga mata at umupo. She grimaced when she felt the soreness in her body, particularly the thing between her thighs.
She clutched the duvet to cover her nakedness. Sandali siyang nanigas nang pumulupot ang isang braso ng binatang kasama sa kama sa kanyang katawan. Kapagkuwan ay napakagat-labi nang maramdaman ang paglapat ng mga labi nito sa kanyang hubad na likod.
"Have you had your fill?" he asked while still brushing his sinful lips to her back.
"W-What?" Shit, Tara! Focus!
Ramdam niya ang pananayo ng mga balahibo sa katawan dahil sa ginagawa ni Harrison. The middle of her thighs throbbed early in the morning!
"You're staring at me sleeping like you wanted to devour me," he rasped with a hint of teasing and lust in his voice.
Nasiko niya ito ng wala sa oras dahil sa pagkapahiyang nararamdaman. He was awake all along when she stared at him for minutes.
Harrison grunted when he got hit in the gut but did not complain. Sa halip ay lalo nitong pinanggigilan ang kanyang likod at tumaas pa ang mga labi sa kanyang leeg. But tried to control herself but a moan still escape.
"A-Ano ba, Harrison... Hmm... I-I'm hungry..." Hindi rin niya mapaniwalaan na nawawalaan siya ng control sa sarili. But it was true that she was hungry. Her stomach was rumbling with hunger, but at the same time, she could feel the heat of desire in it.
She shivered uncontrollably when she felt the hotness of his breath fanned the skin on her nape to the back of her ear.
"You can eat me," he whispered carnally and gave her flesh a lick.
Nanlaki ang mga mata ni Tara sa sinabi nito at nahimasmasan. Nilinga niya si Harrison at itinulak palayo pagkatapos ay tinampal ito sa bibig gamit ang kamay. "Gusto ko ng totoong pagkain, gutom ako, puwede ba!" she uttered and faked her annoyance.
Babawiin niya sana ang kamay ngunit hinawakan nito iyon at pinanatiling nakadikit sa bibig nito. She can feel him smile against her palm before he kissed it. Pagkatapos ay ibinaba nito iyon nang hindi pa rin binibitawan at sinapo ang kanyang pisngi gamit ang isang kamay at idinikit ang mga labi sa kanya.
She kissed him back without hesitation, but she was the one who pushed him and broke the kiss when it started to get deep and demanding.
Ngumiti si Harrison sa kanya at sandaling tinitigan ang kanyang mukha bago bumaba sa ibabaw ng kama. Agad na namula ang kanyang mga pisngi nang hindi man lang nito pinagkaabalahang takpan ang hubad na katawan nang maghanap ng masusuot. She can see all of him, his butt, his back and the front view. He was that confident with his body. There's no hint embarrassment from him to the fact that she can see his half-aroused member.
"Enjoying the view?" si Harrison kasabay nang pamewang.
Dinampot niya ang isang unan at itinapon kay Harrison at sinamaan ito ng tingin. "Magdamit ka nga!"
"You already had it, baby!" Harrison grinned and winked at her before wearing the shorts that he got on the floor. "And by the way, I love seeing you blush early in the morning... I'll cook us breakfast," he added before walking towards the door.
Sunod-sunod na paghinga ang kanyang pinakawalan ng mawala si Harrison sa kanyang paningin at napahawak sa tapat ng dibdib na kumakabog ng malakas. Ipinagpapasalamat niyang walang pag-uusap o komprontasiyong nangyari sa pagitan nila tungkol sa nangyari kagabi. She wasn't ready for it, she doesn't know what to tell him either.
Kailan ka pa naging duwag, Tara? "Since the time I realized that I like him," sagot niya sa sariling katanungan at napabuntung-hininga.
Pagkaraan ng ilang sandali ay maingat siyang bumaba sa kama, kumuha ng kanyang damit na si Harrison pa mismo ang nag-empake at naglinis ng katawan sa banyo.
After she freshened up, she went to the galley and found Harrison inside, he was almost through with cooking their breakfast. He smiled at her when he saw her and said, "You wait at the top deck, well eat there."
Tahimik siyang tumango rito at naglakad patungo sa top deck. Umupo siya sa may kahabaang couch at tumingin sa dagat habang hinihintay si Harrison. Maganda ang panahon at mataas na ang araw. Mabuti't hindi sila tinangay ng alon kagabi habang abala sa ibabaw ng kama at sa katawan ng isa't isa.
"What are you thinking?"
Gulat na nagtaas si Tara ng tingin at nakitang nakangisi sa kanya si Harrison na inilalapag ang dalang tray sa lamesa.
"Pakialam mo?" pagtataray niya at kinunotan ito ng noo na hindi man lang naapektuhan. Kinurot ang kanyang ilong na agad niyang pinalis.
"Ayan ka na naman. Gutom lang 'yan, after what we did last night, you must be—"
"Stop!" she interjected with a sharp voice. "Kumain na tayo, puwede ba 'yon?"
"Yes, Ma'am," he answered like an obedient boy and filled her plate with food before sitting beside her instead of taking the seat across her.
"Doon ka nga!"
"No!"
"Isa!"
"Dalawa," he countered playfully that earned a pinch to his chest from her. "Promise I won't do something nasty."
She eyed him suspiciously, unconvinced, then she conceded and sighed before started to eat.
Maayos na natapos ang pagkain nila nang walang nangyayaring malaking diskusyon dahil pinagbibigyan niya si Harrison at hinabaan ang pasensiya. Pagkatapos nilang kumain at makapaglinis ay nanatili sila roon upang palipasin ang oras. Still hadn't talked about what happened last night.
Tara was on her drawing pad while Harrison was lying down beside her and reading a book. His head was on her lap because he insisted on it. Ilang beses niya itong itinulak subalit makulit pa ito kaysa sa isang batang maliit.
After moments of silence between them, she saw him looking at her, and she let him. "What are you drawing?" he asked and was about to snatch her drawing pad when she tapped his hand.
"'Wag kang kumilos kung ayaw mong itapon kita sa sagot," kaswal niyang banta rito na umani ng mahinang tawa mula rito. She was doing a portrait of him while he was on her lap.
He remained cooperative until she was done with what she was doing. A smile curved her lips when she looked at her work. She used her right hand, and it wasn't perfect, but it was good enough.
"Will you let me see it now?" Harrison interjected in her thoughts.
Napapabuntung-hiningang hinayaan niya ito nang kuhanin nito mula sa kanyang kamay ang drawing pad.
"Who is this? I never see as handsome as this man. Do you have his number? You give it to me, I'll give you one hundred bucks."
Naikot niya ang mga mata dahil sa tinuran ni Harrison at diniinan ang pasa nito sa panga na ikinangiwi nito. Bilang ganti ay hinawakan nito ang kanyang batok, hinila pababa at siniil ng halik ang kanyang mga labi.
A groan came out of his lips as he had taken possession of her lips. Sucking and licking the life out of her.
Hindi nito pinakawalan ang kanyang mga labi kahit na nang umayos ng upo sa ibabaw ng couch.
Tara kissed him the same way he did, her hands were wrapped on his hair, massaging them with a little roughness.
The kiss went rough and wet until she found herself on his lap, straddling him and letting him devour her as if she was his dessert. He pulled her closer, and she felt the throbbing maleness against her. It was painfully erect and ready to reenact what happened the other night.
Harrison's lips went to her jaw when he released her lips when their lungs were about to give up because of the lack of oxygen. He bit her jaw softly, the same part where she punched his jaw must be his way of getting back at her. Giving her sweet torture.
She wrapped her arms around Harrison's neck when his wet kisses went to the hollow of her neck and found the spot that was sensitive to his lips. He licked, bit, and sucked her, which would surely leave a mark against the skin on her neck.
Nang pakawalan siya ni Harrison ay sinalubong niya ang mga mata nito. His desire was obvious, and she almost questioned it. How can he look at her as if his life depended on her? Harrison worked with beautiful and talented women with bodies to die for. But it was her who he looked at as if she was the most beautiful woman in the whole world. She preferred baggy clothes to feminine dresses, rubber shoes than heels, and her paints than makeup. Malayong-malayo siya sa mga babae na nakakasalamuha nito sa trabaho. And he said he liked her! Should she be delighted!
You should be, Tara. You likes him too, don't be a hypocrite! Muntik na siyang mapabuntung-hininga dahil sa sinasabi ng isang bahagi ng kanyang isipan.
She directed her full attention at the man she was straddling on when she heard him pant when her hands touched his chest. His breathing became ragged and heavy, and his eyes slightly dilated when he started to move his hand to caress his taut muscle.
Harrison leaned on the seat while she roamed his body using her hands. She touched his hard abdomen and went lower and lower. But before her hand landed on the place where he wanted it to land, she stopped and got off to her feet.
A satisfied grin etched her mouth when she saw him looked at her with disbelief and obvious frustration. Her eyes landed on his crotch, the swelling was visible. Before a laugh escape from her mouth, she turned her back at him and walked down the stairs to the lower deck.
"Come on, Violet! Don't do this! I won't piss you off for a year, I promise. Just please, get the fuck back at here." Tara, who heard his plea chuckled. She was already at the lower deck, but she still heard his sigh of defeat. "Fine! Blue balls it is!"
Bumalik si Tara sa cabin at kumuha ng pahinga. She was still tired after last night.
PAGSAPIT NG hapon ay roon sila sa lower deck tumambay ni Harrison. Inaya siya nitong maligo ngunit tumanggi siya kaya ngayon ay mag-isa itong nagtatampisaw sa tubig habang siya'y nakaupo sa gilid ng yate at nakalaylay ang mga paa.
She was looking at him the whole time while he was doing his best on trying to convince her to join him. He persisted until she had no choice but to join him when he pulled her feet, and she fell on the water. Agad din naman siya nitong inalalayan upang hindi gaanong mapuwersa ang kanyang mga paa't kamay.
Nakahawak si Harrison sa kanyang bewang habang sumisinghap siya ng hangin. Nang makabawi sa pagkakahulog sa dagat ay sinabunutan niya si Harrison nang marinig itong tumatawa. Agad din naman itong nakawala sa kanya at lumangoy palayo. And like a pissed Tara, she chased after him.
Sa huli ay nabaligtad ang nangyaring habulan. Ito na ang humahabol sa kanya ngayon habang lumalangoy siya palayo rito, he was acting like a maniac man with a mischievous smile on his face. Threatening her to kiss her and do something more when he caught her.
Tara, who saw his face laughed. She laughed like she never did before, and she was genuinely happy. Harrison caught her and silenced her with his lips. Her eyes automatically closed and responded.
Not long after, she found herself laying down on the wet floor of the deck while Harrison was on top of her, making love to her, owning her wholly, and giving her pleasure more than what he gave her last night with the setting sky to their background.
She screamed his name when she orgasmed as she was looking at the orange sky above them, the only witness to the joining of their bodies.
