At Avron mansion,
Aarvi woke up to the alarm that was shifting on the bed to turn off when the arms around her pulled her back. Ending up on his pillow face to face, she saw his closed eyes as he tried to get back to sleep while her eyes struck on his lips due to their colliding breath.
She oddly felt he was trying to seduce her early in the morning. Lifting her head, she whispered next to his ear, "Wake up in five seconds. Don't miss your exer…cise."
But the man embraced her closer, "Let's skip on Sundays." He groggily said while she counted five in mind.
At the sixth second, he shot his eyes open. At the eighth second, he pulled her away, and on the ninth second, he rolled off the bed and went to the bathroom without turning back.
Aarvi: "..."
She sat on the bed scratching her head, "I just gently bit your ear, why are you acting like a ghost?" She asked more to herself seeing him shut the door.
Standing by the door, "Aaron Rivas, how dare you run away without wishing good morning?"
But her question t with silence, she pouted for not getting his sweet morning wish and went to her room while Aaron looked down at himself.
He didn't know which one to curse, if it's morning sensitive senses or her bite, or her warm breath on his skin or her sensual sll or her soft body against his or just his body or perhaps... everything. However, he accepted his fate of an early morning cold shower.
After their morning routine workout, Aaron was already at the breakfast table at the patio when Aarvi graced her presence. Aaron's lips arced seeing her dress and also for taking it serious about eting his mother even though it's in the cetery.
Aarvi was in a black knee-length, full sleeve, A-line dress that was comfortably settling on her curves. The specialty of her dress was white, the dress's round collar and the hem of the sleeves were in white.
She had paired it with black pumps, very light classic finger rings, pearl drop earrings, and big wavy curls of hair which gave her a softer look to her petite face. There wasn't makeup other than a very light shade of lipstick which was the sa colors of her lips and her natural blush that appeared when she smiled at him.
Aarvi raised her brows asking him, "Did you check out my dress and copied , Doctor Rivas?"
Aaron pulled a chair for her as he playfully answered, "Maybe… Maybe not."
Aaron was in sleek black trousers and shirt ditching the blazer to be more casual than a corporate look. He was wearing white shoes hence their outfit coordinated very well.
Aaron kissed her crown before both started breakfast. Aaron didn't bring up the white in her dress. He let her speak about it if she wanted else he didn't want to bring up about her black dresses.
"Dressed to impress my mother," Aaron exclaid. He knew she chose according to the cetery code and also eting his parents, comfortable, casualness with a little professional serious look.
Aarvi grinned before repeating his line, "Maybe… Maybe not." Aaron chuckled and continued their breakfast with little tease and fun.
Aarvi had ordered flowers to be delivered at the mansion with wrapping items as the flower shop is closed on Sunday. She personally wrapped white lilies, their buds with so leaves for structure in the white and cream floristic paper, and tied them in white ribbon before asking to keep them in the car truck.
Aaron glanced at the maid who was looking at her in awe and another one hesitatingly probed when Aarvi was wiping her hands, "Ms. Evans, will you please teach us how to wrap and arrange flowers in a vase?"
Aarvi checked the ti on her wristwatch before responding, "How about so other ti when I am free? Now we will be late."
While the maids quickly bowed to Aarvi, lia chuckled as she added, "I think we will not need any decorators if we arrange any party at ho."
Aarvi realized why the maid asked. Aaron and Aarvi don't like new people entering the mansion due to various reasons so she comnded the maids trained by the Rivas family.
She faintly smiled at them before leaving with Aaron thinking how her father's place maids behaved with her when she was the daughter of the house and how these maids are totally opposite to them without discriminating she wasn't a Rivas... yet.
Truthfully, she never liked to converse with any maids or lia in the beginning when she woke up from comatose. She had expected to see their contempt but none had behaved wrongly with her even once.
To earn this goodness in life, she hoped she already paid the hefty price for it and she doesn't have to pay more.
Aarvi snapped back rembering the word party, "Aaron, why hadn't you celebrated your birthday in the last two years?"
Aaron's grip on the steering wheel tightened before faintly smiling at her, "I don't like celebrating my birthday." He left his Cupcake alone on his birthday and he doesn't feel like it's a day to be celebrated or rembered.
Aarvi recalled how Aaron used to shoo Shawn out of his apartnt three years on his birthday whenever Shawn used to force him to celebrate. "You haven't celebrated your birthday from the ti you shifted to country S. Shawn was saying you hate your birthday, why? Because you were forced to move out of the country?"
Aaron glanced at her and sighed without answering. If he answers, it would be a half-truth so he chose to be quiet.
Aarvi didn't want to ruin his mood so she teased hoping it will work, "Oh… Were you mad because you failed to elope with ?"
Aaron chuckled hearing her. 'Elope' sounded fun and adventurous. "So Ms. Evans, shall we elope?"
Aarvi's smile slightly flattered, now she wanted to make things straight even though she would love to elope, "Ahhh… now it's no fun. I have nobody to ask or stop. Apple Pie is ready to sell off to you. So let's go back to three years and elope ditching the world."
Aaron chuckled hearing her show disappointnt knowing there is no excitent to elope. He probed curiously, "Let's consider, I hadn't left the country and courted you, would you have accepted ?"
Aarvi responded without a slight hesitation, "Absolutely. I would have tortured you to elope with as soon as I turned twenty-one. The best escape to the beautiful world."
Aaron wanted to stop the car and kiss her senseless until both pants to catch the breath and enjoy the lingering sensation.
But he controlled and he hated his grandfather even more. He knew Aarvi Evans or Ava Kelly, both are brave enough to do what she said. Would they have been married for three years in that case?
Aarvi pouted by seeing him silent and unreactive. "Did I fail in the answering question too? I think I should start counting my failures now." She sighed.
Aaron glanced at her and revealed why he was silent as turned to the road, "No, you didn't fail. I am controlling myself from kissing you. So don't distract now."
"Oh…" She trailed it as she silently unbuckled the belt trying her best to keep the unlock sound low. Then she swiftly moved to the corner of her seat and pressed her hand on her dashboard while another hand reached the headrest of his seat. She pulled herself up and pressed her lips on his cheek.
"Alright, I won't distract." She teased and again pecked on his cheek.
Aaron: "..."
'No distraction?' He was losing it and he was sure she was purposefully teasing him and she wasn't going to stop him even if he kisses her lips right there.
He knows he had already crumbled those walls and she was letting him in without fear. He noticed the coming traffic signal and devised his plan.
Aarvi was going for the third peck on his cheek but he turned slightly raising his head landing her lips on his. She wasn't shocked but sohow expected it but she rembered the road, "Aaron… Road."
Aaron purposefully slamd the brake to stop the car in a jerk as she had no idea there was a red light. Spontaneously, his both hands held her quickly when she swayed and landed her head safely on his lap.
Shocked Aarvi: "..."
Aaron first glanced at the traffic light tir, 'I have 60 seconds.' he thought as he slightly moved his seat back and lifted Aarvi to a comfortable position on his leg.
Aarvi was still confused about how fluently she laid on his lap when she saw Aaron dipping his head aiming at her lips. Her eyes instinctively closed and anticipated their first kiss… No, second kiss? She didn't care but waited for their kiss.
Aaron's finger trailed up her slender neck and lifted her chin before his slender fingers held them captive.
What is he doing? This wasn't like how she had seen it in movies. But then little did she have ti to think about the fake kisses on the screen.
His thumbs sensuously brushed her soft delicious lips making them crave for his attention.
Aarvi felt strange by his touch on her lips… The touch felt totally different from their innocent pecks on the lips. She wanted to touch her lips or probably feel his finger on hers again to know what was that strange feeling.
His hot breath closed down to her skin and she felt his lips hover over her lips twitching her breath in anticipation.
