Summary: the team ended their successful Pagtatag World Tour in a night full of drinks, music and games.
Pagtatag con in Canada finally ended and the group decided to celebrate by having some fun and play games inside the VVIP suite gifted to them by their producer for their successful world tour. They will be spending a few more days in Canada before flying back to US for Jvke’s concert.
“Okay, I thought of a perfect game!” Ms. Rein, their stylist, the ever feminine soft spoken one, shouted on top of her lungs so she will be heard.
The group already consumed a few bottles of Tequila, playing cards that Stell bought when they were in Vancouver and of course, music is playing in the background courtesy of Josh Cullen, their DJ for the night. Some of them are already getting tipsy and they are all getting loud and nosy (ehem Pablo checking cabinets and stuff inside the room) so Ms. Rein needs to shout to be heard.
Ken, who was sitting in the corner of the room, paused the screen of his phone and look at her. Waiting. Of course, he is not drinking but it doesn’t mean he can’t take part in this game.
Josh lowered the volume of the music and everyone turned their attention to her, waiting for her to roll down the game.
“We’ll pick someone who will be our IT (Taya) by playing maiba taya. Then randomly 5 person we’ll give him/her a kiss. Any parts of the head down to the neck will do. Then the IT will guess who it is. The number of incorrect guesses will take a shot equivalent to those incorrect ones.” She proudly said.
“Oh, so for example, I am the IT. Then Stell kisses me on my forehead. If I guess it wrong, that will be one shot?” Pablo clarifies.
“Yes, that’s correct. And also, the IT will not be able to know who that person is. It will not be revealed. So, there is mystery and twist in our game. Gets?” Ms. Rein emphasize the rule cos she knows the boys love to bend the rules of their games to their advantage.
“What will be the prize if someone get all of them right?” Justin asks while raising his right hand in the air.
“I think anything he/she wishes. It may be a shopping spree, a solo VIP room when we get back to the US, a new toy, a place to visit. We’ll chip in for that prize. So, are we good? Can we start now?” he looks at each face while nodding at them. The room is silent. Everyone is thinking, contemplating.
“Wait! Ken, are you joining?” Stell’s voice echoed in the room.
“Of courseeee! I already have a prize in my mind.” He exclaimed, eyebrows raising while smirking, confident that he will win this game.
“Kapag na wrong guess ka anong iinumin mo?” Ken saw the worry look in Stell’s face. “Don’t worry ga, I will not lose!” Ga, love. It was Ken’s pet name to Stell. Everyone in this room knows what he usually calls Stell. But mind you, they are not in a relationship or whatsoever. Not yet.
“Yabang! Eh pa’no nga if you lose? What’s your consequence?” Justin insisted.
“I’ll clean this room after natin. Okay na?” he said, asking everyone to agree with him. The room now is a mess. Empty bottles, spilled liquid from a disposable cup, there were plastic spoon and fork on the floor. Crumbs from junk foods are everywhere because someone named Justin keeps on throwing them towards Josh.
“Wait! What if may tie?” It was Josh who raised that question.
“Then we’ll have a tie breaker!” Ms. Rein
“Hey, I’m in!” Pablo raises his hand and then each of them follows which means they all agree to this game.
“Let’s start!” everyone formed a circle and they all played the maiba taya game.
Their first player is Justin.
A bandana covered his eyes so he won’t be able to see who the person is. He seated in one of the chairs and soon the first participant places a kiss on top of his head.
“Eh? Is that it?” he asked in confusion.
“Of course, what do you expect? It should be a quick kiss only.” It was Ms. Rein’s voice.
“I think we need to timer it. 5 seconds is enough.” Pablo suggested and they all agreed. Ken volunteered to be the timekeeper since he is not drunk.
“Let’s start again.”
The first person to kiss Justin on the head waited 5 seconds and when Ken shouted Time’s up, he moved away from Justin. Everyone waited for him to answer.
“Hmn.. I think that’s Mama Mac!” everyone cheered because he got it right.
Second person kisses him on the nose.
Justin bit his lower lip the moment he realized who that was.
“It’s ahm..I think it’s Josh!”
Everyone cheered again, he got two points already. “I thought so. You really know my lips, Jah.” Josh whispered to him, teasing him, making him blush.
Third person kisses him on his left jaw.
It took him a minute to guess but sadly, he didn’t get it right.
Fourth person kisses him on his right cheek. Again, he guessed it wrong.
Last person gave him a kiss on his right shoulder blade. There were protests surrounding him because the rule only states down to the neck only. But since they are the rule bending boys, they all agree to include shoulders.
“Aish, Stell?” and he guessed it right.
Justin got two incorrect guesses so he shot down two glasses of drinks.
And the game continued. Everyone participated, even volunteering to kiss the IT. Now it is Stell’s turn to guess.
He is smiling widely, obviously getting excited to play this game. Being a competitive person, he knew exactly what to look for. When the bandana was secured, he waited for the kiss to be placed.
First person kisses him on his right cheeks. Based on the smell, Stell knew it was Xi-Anne.
And he guessed it right!
Second person gave him a kiss on his neck. He can’t help but laugh cos hey, it tickles him. He guessed Pablo and he was right.
Third person gave him a kiss on his forehead. He knew who it was. It was Mama Mac. And he got it correct again.
Fourth person gave him a kiss on his right eye. Well, there is only one person who will do that to him. His sweet younger brother, their bunso. It was Justin and he got it right again.
Last one was a kiss along with the sensation he did not expect. It was a kiss right on his chin. It wasn’t a kiss but more like a nip. He held his breath and stop his self from making a sound cos hey, that one was so hot.
He counted the time but the nip is taking more than five seconds and then he heard Pablo in the background. “Huy stop na, more than five seconds na.”
When the person moved away from him, he knew who it was. It was Ken.
Final round ended with a tie breaker.
Ken versus Stell.
They do bato bato pik to choose who will be the first to guess and it was Ken.
First kiss was a kiss on his cheekbone. He guessed Ms. Rein and he got it right.
Second kiss was a kiss on his forehead. He chuckled and shouted Josh’s name. They all laugh and tease him how he got it correct. He replied, “Of course, ako pa ba? Malayo pa si Josh naamoy ko na ‘yan!”
Third kiss was placed on his adam’s apple. He gulped when he felt the first few seconds of his lips against his skin. He smiled wildly when he sniffs and smell the perfume he was wearing.
“Na-uh, you will not distract me by doing that… Stell.” It was so soft and so low that only Stell heard it.
To make the game a little bit exciting, he took his time to answer. The group, getting impatient started counting down from five to one and at the last second, he shouted, Stell!
They were amazed cos he got it right again and Justin even protested that it’s unfair cos Ken is not drunk. His senses are working 100% fine. But then everyone was getting the hang of it and excited who will be the final winner.
Fourth kiss was placed on his nape. He knew it was Pablo because of the little stubbles around his mouth that tickles him. And he got it right much to Pablo’s amazement, all of them got Pablo right. He didn’t realize yet that he was giving clues to everyone he kisses.
They stopped the game and did another twist. Since it will be the last one for Ken, they decided to shift to Stell.
Stell guessed the first three person correctly and now down to the fourth one. He sat up straight and waited patiently for the kiss.
He didn’t know why but his heart was beating wildly inside his chest. He can feel the shuffling of feet and the presence of someone in front of him. He can hear them shushing everyone, wondering what is happening when two hands hold his face and angle it up.
His lips suddenly went dry and he licks it with his tongue. He can feel the people around them holding their breaths and he would have said something when a pair of lips crashes in his slightly open mouth.
The person is kissing him on the lips. He can feel the soft lips against his own. After a few seconds, the lips moves and it started giving him small kisses.
Stell didn’t know who gasps who but then before the five seconds ended, the pair of lips move away from him, giving a small distance, enough for him to breath properly. Then out of nowhere, he felt another peck on his lips and the person moved away from him completely.
“Wow! That was...hot.” Ms. Rein bursted.
“Okay, Stell. Who do you think that person is?” he gulped and all eyes are on him, waiting for his answer.
“I think, it was…ahm.” His mind went blank. He thinks he knew who it was but he can’t seem to open his mouth. So, the countdown happened and Stell didn’t get one name out.
“Sheeshh..ano ba yan Stell. Pano? Panalo na ko nito?” Ken boastfully said but Josh countered.
“Not yet! Stell got 3 out of four, he still has one shot to take. While you got 4 out of four but we don’t know if you will guess the last one. So, we need to continue playing to determine the winner.”
“I agree with Josh.” Justin second the motion.
For the final, final round. Both of them were sat on the chair, side by side and they were kissed at the same time by different person. Although Stell got it right, Ken also guessed it correctly so the winner of their game is Ken.
“So, what will be your prize, Ken?” Ms. Rein asked him after declaring him a winner.
“Well, you said we can ask for anything right?” he confirmed.
“Yes, that’s what we agreed.”
“Okay, I want Stell.”
“Final answer?” they all asked.
“Final answer!” He said with conviction.
“Okay, that’s a wrap. We’ll bring Stell’s things here tomorrow morning. Guys, come on, let’s leave these two so they can talk.” They all tapped Ken’s shoulders and they all said goodluck, hwaiting to Stell, much to Stell’s embarrassment.
When everyone left, Ken walks to where Stell, who is standing like a statue right at the window, looking outside. He is nervous, quiet and he doesn’t know why but he is getting excited at the same time for being Ken’s prize.
“Hey, okay ka lang?” he felt him near him.
Ken placed his hands on his waist, just above his hipbone. He then pulled Stell closer to him so the latter leans on him.
“Why did you let me win?” he softly asked.
“I didn’t. Hindi ba si Mama Mac yung kumiss sakin?” He innocently asked.
“Do you really think Mama Mac will kiss you on the lips?” Ken then back hugged Stell while placing soft kisses on his shoulder blades.
“I don’t know. Sino ba yung kumiss sakin sa lips?” he asked again. Based on the rule, once you got it wrong, you will never know who kissed you.
Ken then turned Stell around until they are facing each other. He looked straight in his eyes, placed a finger under his chin, leans down and stop. There was just a short distance between their lips when Ken spoke. “Let me remind you again, baka this time, you’ll guess it right.” Then he kisses Stell’s slightly open lips. It was soft at first, placing sweet kisses around his lips.
But then the kiss become aggressive when Ken encourages Stell to respond by nipping his lips. Soon, Stell find his self responding back, kissing him back with the same fervor and excitement. When Ken pressed his chin with his fingers, Stell accidentally moans and open up his mouth. That’s the cue Ken was waiting for. He plunges his tongue inside Stell’s and seek the other tongue inside his mouth.
End.
