"Mahal mag pahinga ka naman na.."

You look up from your computer to find your girlfriend tiredly rubbing at her eyes. Clearly having been disturbed from her sleep due to the lack of your presence in the bed. You smile at her in apology. "Sorry ha? Kasi hindi talaga ako mapakali dito sa case digest ko. Feel ko parang may kulang talaga."

Tricia walks over to the back of your chair, leaning over your shoulder and staring at the screen for a moment before she brings her hands to your shoulders and starts working the tension out. She presses her lips to your neck's pulse point, making you melt under her hands.

She slides her hands off of your shoulder, slips them below your shirt and trails it upward with her fingertips applying a little pressure.

"Ang manyak mo."

She jumps away from you, shock readable on every inch of her face. "Matapos kong maging malambing?? Tatawagin lang akong manyak??" All you could do is laugh at the look of shattered dignity on your girlfriend's face. You roll your eyes in fondness.

"Sige na nga, eto na teka lang, jusko po."

You start setting aside your things, stacking notebooks on top of each other, and stacking notepads atop the notebooks. You make sure to save each and every document before you even think of placing your cursor anywhere near the Start button. Shutting down computers is a muscle memory that kicks in once the Start Menu is opened.

No one wants to lose 49 pages worth of hard work to an accident after all.

You shut down the computer once everything's been saved and double checked, you unplug the Laptop cooling fan, and turn off the extension cord before standing up and stretching. You lock eyes with Tricia, and she sends you a soft smile before extending a hand out to you.

You take it without hesitation, and she pulls you close to her. Tricia sways you around and you laugh at your girlfriend's antics, she spins you around and then the energy begins to die down.

"Tutulog na ha? Wala nang babangon ng biglaan para tumakas at bumalik sa laptop."

You smile at her in embarrasment, and swear that you won't be making anymore late night renditions to the case digest. Tricia sticks out her pinky finger. "Pinky Promise" she asks you to comply with, and just because you love the girl infront of you- You interlock your pinky finger with hers.

Tricia gives you a kiss "Kasi trip ko." she says, and you only smile in return before pulling her towards the direction of the bedroom.
