Mayari Calleope's Point of View

The instant I laid my eyes on the photo Riley sent, a rush of emotions surged within me, compelling me to spring into action. I had no inkling about what had possessed Riley's mind this time, but it was evident that he was hell-bent on shaking the tranquility of my world.

As I hastily dressed, a sense of urgency enveloped me. Pagtapos kong magbihis ay lumabas na ako ng aking kwarto. Madilim na sa salas dahil tulog na rin ang mga kaibigan ko. As I made my way toward the door, a soft, warm light emanated from the kitchen, and I heard Ashley's voice.

"Where are you off to at this ungodly hour?" she inquired, a glass of warm milk in her hand.

"Uh..." Hindi ko alam ang isasagot ko sa gulat. Diyos ko! Akala ko tulog na ang lahat. Once again, I found myself caught off guard. But then, what was there to hide? My friends already knew about Riley and me.

Ashley grinned mischievously. "Wait! I think I know! You're sneaking off to see Riley, aren't you?" Her playful teasing made my cheeks flush, and I merely nodded in response.

Ashley burst into laughter. "I knew it! Well, take care and have fun!" She waved me off, and I chuckled, shaking my head. Hindi na lamang ako sumagot pa at lumabas na ako ng pinto at narinig ko pa ang pahabol na sigaw ni Ashley.

"Don't forget to use a condom!" Nakakalokong sigaw nito na mabilis ko namang kinapamula. Baliw talaga 'tong si Ashley! Mamaya may makarinig sa kaniya talaga namang nakakahiya.

Hindi na lang ako sumagot at nagpatuloy na ako sa paglalakad. Sumakay ako ng elevator pababa ng basement.

"Where are you?" I read Riley's text message, my brows furrowing.

"Pababa na. Huwag kang atat na makita ako," I retorted playfully, unable to stifle a chuckle. Riley's eagerness to see me was palpable.

Maya-maya lamang ay naka-received ako ng reply mula sa kaniya.

"Nah, I'm just excited to see you," he confessed, accompanied by a blushing emoji. I was about to type my response when the elevator signaled our arrival in the basement.

The doors opened, and there stood Riley, a broad grin illuminating his face.

"Hey, gorgeous," he greeted me with simple eloquence. My eyebrow arched as I gazed at him, attempting to suppress a smile that inevitably surfaced in his presence. He had a way of making me feel happy.

"Hey, Mr. Bartender." I greeted him back. Riley stifles a soft chuckle as he pulls me in a warmth embrace. It was in that tender moment that I found myself genuinely smiling. Riley gently disengaged, and our eyes met. The hue of his gray eyes held me captive, their allure undeniable.

"You're beautiful," he uttered almost in a whisper. I couldn't help but smile at the compliment.

"Nangbobola ka na naman." I teased, prompting Riley to roll his eyes playfully.

"Kailan kita binola, Mayari?" he replied, his fingers tracing my cheek. A shiver coursed through my body as his touch ignited electric sensations.

"I'm just being honest about how beautiful you are," he confessed with unwavering sincerity. Before I could respond, he leaned in, and our lips met. I surrendered to his kisses, each one a crescendo of desire, starting softly but intensifying relentlessly.

"Riley..." I reluctantly interrupted, aware of our surroundings. I scanned our dimly lit, clandestine environment. "Not here. We're in a public place. Someone might see us," I expressed with a hint of anxiety.

Riley chuckled softly. "Yeah, I forgot. Sorry," he apologized, leaning down to whisper in my ear. "It's your fault. Why are you so irresistible, baby?" His breath grazed my ear, sending shivers down my spine. I couldn't help but emit a soft moan. Riley leaned back, a mischievous grin dancing on his lips.

"Jerk!" I playfully scolded him as we headed to his car.

"After you, baby," he chivalrously held the passenger door open. I rolled my eyes playfully, climbing into the vehicle. My glance met Riley's, who wore an impish grin.

Pagsakay niya sa driver's seat ay agad niyang pinasibad ang kaniyang sasakyan.

"Where are we headed, anyway?" I inquired as I observed Riley at the wheel. His shrug sparked curiosity.

"I actually don't know. Hmmm." He pondered our destination, and it became evident that we weren't bound for his condo—at least not yet.

Isa ata itong himala.

"Oh! I finally thought of a place," he exclaimed after a moment of contemplation. I turned my gaze toward him, and he winked. I sighed and turned to gaze out the window. I trusted Riley enough to know that he wouldn't lead me into perilous or precarious situations

Well, ganoon kalaki ang tiwala ko sa kaniya.

Minsan napapaisip na lang ako, on how cliché my current situation was. I had run away from home to avoid marrying someone I didn't know or love. Pero sa ginawa kong pag-alis, hindi ko akalaing makikilala ko ang isang lalaking magpapabago sa ikot ng mundo ko. Sa lalaking hindi ko akalaing ibibigay ko ang sarili ko at pagkakatiwalaan ko kahit hindi pa kami ganoon katagal magkakilala. I couldn't help but laugh at myself, feeling somewhat foolish. But I couldn't comprehend why I had wound up like this, drawn to this man.

To the man who disguised himself as a bartender at his own establishment. To the man who ceaselessly teased and brightened my day with his antics. To the man who appeared to elicit happiness in me through the simplest gestures.

The guy behind the steering wheel was remarkably extraordinary in his own idiosyncratic manner, and he had inexplicably kindled a peculiar warmth within me.

"Mayari, what do you want to eat?" I suddenly heard Riley ask as we cruised down the road. At dahil malalim ang aking iniisip ay wala sa sariling sumagot ako.

"Ikaw." I found myself blurting out unexpectedly, catching us both off guard. Nagulat naman ako ng biglang mapa-preno si Riley ng malakas dahilan upang muntikan na akong tumalsik mula sa aking kinauupuan. Buti na lamang at naka-seatbelt ako kung hindi ay baka tumilapon na ako palabas ng kotse.

"What the heck, Riley?!" I exclaimed, my heart pounding as I shot him a bewildered look. Tumingin ako sa kaniya at kita kong siryoso siyang nakatitig sa akin. Kinunutan ko naman ito ng noo.

"Why did you suddenly hit the brakes?" I inquired, puzzled by his peculiar behavior. Riley remained silent, his gaze fixed on me. I arched an eyebrow, waiting for an explanation.

"Hey! You okay?" I probed, my confusion growing.

"What did you just say?" Riley questioned, his expression a mélange of bewilderment and intensity. I, too, was enveloped in a whirlpool of confusion.

"What? I said, why did you sudd—" Riley swiftly interrupted my sentence.

"No, not that one. What is your answer when I asked you what did you want to eat," he clarified. I glanced at him, a twinge of curiosity gnawing at me.

"I said ikaw." I replied, still perplexed. Riley swallowed hard, and his eyes darkened, as if ensnared by an overpowering emotion.

What? What's wrong with my answer? Did I say something wrong? I pondered whether there was anything wrong with what I had said and that's when I realized.

He had asked me what I wanted to eat, and I had merely responded with 'you.' It sounded almost like I desired to devour him.

My eyes widened in realization, and I stammered, "Oh my God! It's not what you're thinking! I mean, it's up to you what you want to eat," my voice quivered, and my heart raced as embarrassment tinged my cheeks. I had inadvertently planted an incriminating idea in Riley's mind.

"What if I say that I want to eat you too?" Riley retorted with earnestness, catching me off guard.

"W-what?" I stuttered, my breath hitching in surprise. Riley proceeded to unfasten his seatbelt and leaned in closer to me, causing me to lean back, my back resting against the passenger door.

He possessed a remarkable ability to dismantle my awareness of my surroundings.

"You awakened something inside me with your answer, baby," Riley murmured, and a sense of anticipation unfurled within me.

"W-what do you mean?" I stammered, my anticipation mounting.

"This is what I mean," Riley responded before I could muster a reply. Swiftly, he repositioned me, seating me on his lap.I couldn't help but wonder when he had managed to unbuckle my seatbelt without my notice.

Paano niya nagawang tanggalin ang seatbelt ko ng hindi ko man lang nararamdaman?

"R-Riley! Baka may makakita sa atin!" I voiced my concern, darting furtive glances around to assess our surroundings.

Mapuno ang lugar kung nasaan kami. Wala rin masyadong dumadaang sasakyan at pakiramdam ko'y nasa isa kaming mataas na lugar dahil nakikita ko ang mga nagagandahan at makukulay na ilaw ng mga matataas na gusali sa syudad.

"Don't worry, my car has tinted windows, especially for situations such as this," Riley quipped, grinning with playful audacity.

I playfully smacked his shoulder in response to his cheekiness.

"Really, Middleton?" I retorted, maintaining a facade of composure as his arms enveloped my waist.

"Yes, baby. It's your fault, after all. You've awakened the beast inside me," he confessed in a hushed tone. Before I could counter his assertion, Riley descended, capturing my lips in a passionate kiss.

His kiss was a tempest, swift and ardent, an invitation impossible to resist. I yielded willingly, our lips entwining with a passion that consumed reason. His hungry mouth trailed a path down to my neck, awakening sensations I had never known before. Soft nibbles on the sensitive skin there ignited an electrifying response within me.

"R-Riley..." I couldn't help but moan as his hand ventured from my waist to the intimate terrain between my thighs. Clad only in shorts, my most private realm lay exposed to his touch.

"You're already wet, baby," he breathed against the curve of my neck. Goosebumps danced along my skin as his caress summoned a symphony of sensations.

I gasped in sheer ecstasy when his skilled fingers slipped beneath the edge of my underwear, teasing and exploring my most intimate sanctum.

"Riley!" I whimpered, my voice a breathy supplication as his fingers ventured deeper. At first, his movements were deliberate and languid, tantalizing me with a slow and seductive dance. Then, an escalation, a crescendo of pleasure that threatened to send me into madness.

"Goddamn it, Riley! Ohh!" My grip on him tightened involuntarily as my body surrendered to the intoxicating pleasure he orchestrated.

"Oh God, Riley! F-faster..." The words tumbled from my lips, an admission of my delirious surrender to the pleasure coursing through me.

And then...

"Oops!" My eyes snapped open as Riley abruptly halted his actions. Confusion etched across my face as I peered at him quizzically, only to find his amused grin.

I inquired, a twinge of disappointment coloring my words. I felt as though I had been left hanging on the precipice of desire.

"Because I want both you and me to reach that pinnacle together," he murmured. My response was forestalled by a sensation more profound than words could convey as I felt him enter me.

"Oh!!" My voice soared in a crescendo of pleasure as he thrust inside me. Despite our previous encounters, I still grappled with the sheer magnitude of his size.

"Tangina, Mayari! It's hot inside you," Riley exclaimed, his Tagalog curses taking on an alluring charm, amplified by his American accent.

Navigating our passionate dance in the confined space of the car proved challenging as I straddled Riley's lap.

"I'll assist you," Riley offered, recognizing my struggle. His hands found their way to my hips, guiding and synchronizing our movements.

Initially, it was a slow and demanding endeavor, our bodies entangled in the throes of desire. But as moments unfolded into eternity, our rhythm quickened.

"Damn, Mayari!"

"Riley!"

In harmonious union, we moaned, the symphony of our desire echoing through the quiet of the night. The car rocked in sync with our fervor, yet the cloak of darkness concealed our indiscretions.

"I'm near, baby!" Riley whispered, sealing the gap between our lips once more. My nails dug into his back as I teetered on the precipice, the ecstasy building to a crescendo.

With one final, thunderous thrust, we surrendered to ecstasy in unison, reaching heights previously uncharted.

"Oh, my Mayari," Riley murmured as we both fought to regain our breath. In the aftermath of our fervent encounter, I struggled to find my voice. It was, undoubtedly, the most intense experience of my life, an exhilarating rush I had never anticipated, let alone experienced in a car.

"Hmm?" I eventually managed to utter, still catching my breath. I felt utterly unmoored, grappling with the realization of what we had just shared.

Hindi ko akalaing mararanasan ko makipag-s*x in the car. For Pete's sake! Sa mga movie ko lang ito napapanood pati sa mga librong binabasa ko. Wala sa hinagap na mararanasan ko rin pala ang ganito.

"I want to get to know you better," Riley confessed, his words a beacon that drew my gaze to him.

"What?" I replied, my voice emerging as a faint whisper, the aftermath of our tryst leaving me speechless. Riley tenderly brushed away strands of hair that obscured my vision.

"I said I want to get to know you better," he reiterated, a genuine smile gracing his features. I remained stupefied, the surprise of his declaration etched across my face.

"Let's get to know each other, Mayari," he proposed, a proposition that left me hanging, teetering on the precipice of an unknown future.
