illar. "That's no moth, that's a baby caterpillar, dummy." She said mockingly, attempting to pick it up to scare me even more. " Hey hey hey, stop that right now!" I yelled, obviously scared she'd actually put it on me. " Laura, that's enough. Don't scare your younger sister like that." Finally! Once again, dad saved the day. " Dad, the bug - " " You mean

u. I feel bad for you hunnie." They genuinely felt concerned. " Well having a date doesn't determine anything... I'm fine on my own." I checked the alcohol bucket and it was empty. " There's literally nobody that's my type in here, ewww." Laura said, rolling her eyes at every couple that passes by. " Let's just be each other's prom date, asides your prom dates. Let it just be us right now, three best friends - including Laura

this close to him. His lips had this smirk on it, I couldn't tell if he was purposely looking flirty or it was natural. Because why would The Daniel Antonio be flirty with me? I laughed at the joke in my head. " Oh, sure... thank you Daniel." I spawned back to reality. He gave a soft smile. " Yep. And what's the name of the beautiful girl in blue?" He leaned forward. I gasped. Who me? He didn't just call me beautiful, did he? " Who me? Ohhhh, yes yes, meeee!" I said laughing out loud. I wasn't even under the influence and yet I was acting this crazy. " Yes you." He arched an eyebrow. Damn he looked so good. " Luna. I'm Luna." I raised my voice because the music got so loud. "Huh?" He didn't get the name. " It's Luna. L-U-N-A. It means the Moon." I moved slightl

re we go again. Laura couldn't spare me just one night, in front of my crush. She used to tease me about him before, saying he'd never look my way, blah blah blah. But guess who's getting compliments from The Daniel Antonio? Me! I have always

your place Luna. Makes me think you're trying to have some alone time with him. Wow Luna, so much for a sister." Laura said, and dashed away angrily. " Does she always get like that?" I was embarrassed on her behalf. " I'm sorry, that wasn't her best behavior. She's just..." He held my hands, now taking steps closer. " Don't make excuse for her. She's clearly responsible for her actions, you shouldn't apologize. It's not your fault." I looked him in the eyes. Why's he being so

, still in doubt. "Yes you, Luna." I didn't realize when I started blushing. "Uhmm, yes yes. I'd love to dance with you." Duhh, I dance with you even in my dream, talk more of in reality. I was in

you have your entire family here and basically you have lived your whole life here, why then did you leave to a new place?" I've been longing to ask this question. The day I found out he left the Philippines, my heart shattered into pieces. I didn't realize the weight of the crush until then. After it dawned on me t

ause my sister's words got to me. 'he'd never like someone like you' she said. Maybe I believed her, and shrunk at the thought of him rejecting me. " That was enough for you to leave?! Your family, friends, even m- " the words fought to escape my mouth. "Go on, I'm listening." He paused, and leaned forward, as if to hear every bit of it. I became teary th

back." All these didn't make any sense. My head became heavy. I wasn't thinking properly. What in the world is he talking about? Or am not only seeing, but hearing things too? " What do you mean you came back for me? We barely even know each other. We

I have always thought you wouldn't like me back because you always avoided my stares, everytime we crossed pa

d I had no knowledge of it. No wonder Laura acted strange after that day. She kept teasing me about him even more. She probably saw us kiss. " Did-did she see- see us ki-ki-kiss? " I stammered. " Yes, she did. She pushed me off you, and warned me to stay away from you. I didn't know who she was at that time and so I pleaded with her to take care of you. After watching you pass out, I left.
