The Traps of Black Swan

Chapter 288 - Am I That Childish?

Aarvi had lots to talk about and also tell Aaron about their suspended communication. Being pinned against the wall, all she could think of doing was reciprocate him to his demanding, knee-weakening kiss.

He pulled her waist closer and his hand tangled with her hair as he frenzied their lips to kiss her deeply, to kiss her muddled.

He started off softly like coaxing her lips in an apology for leaving her in the mall, for ditching their date again. 

Then he was demanding, making it hard for her to match his pace. It was like a complaint seeing her keep the strong up front in front of him even in her struggles.

There is nothing important for him more than her, not even his career. If people despise him for being uxorious or call him a henpecked, he will heartily accept it.

So missing her? He had craved to look at her, hear her the whole evening and night. How could he not miss her

Clutching his blazer, standing on her toes, sunk in his warmth, she was completely lost in their passionate kiss with her tiny moans when felt something vibrating at her thigh. 

Her face burned red at the thought of something else moving before the ringtone of his mobile registered to her dazed mind.

She patted his chest to break their kiss as she tried to say, 'Your mobile.' but her words muffled against his lips like sweet moans.

The man didn't bother about his mobile, instead, he pressed her against him and pulled her tongue to his mouth and sucked hard until she let out a sensuous moan and focused back on their kiss and on him.

After it felt like an eternity, they broke the kiss. While he took long breaths stealing her air, she was panting with her chest heaving up and down pressed against his chest.

Looking at her hazy eyes, his fingers continued to caress her scarlet milky smooth cheek, continuing to rob some more kisses from her sweet lips.

Aarvi: "..."

She definitely felt like the most delicious candy of Aaron before she pushed her head back and narrowed her eyes, sending alarming signals to his brain.

Now, no sense or words going to save him so he slowly unwrapped his arms and coughed slightly to clear his throat.

Aarvi remembered him twisting her ear every time she made some mistake so she too grabbed his ear and gritted her teeth, "Aaron Rivas, how dare you kiss me after ditching me twice back to back? No, why am I even dating you? Why don't you just marry that stethoscope of yours and the surgical instruments? You guys make a perfect couple." Leaving his ear, she glared at him as she crossed her arms grumpily.

He tried to hold her but she slapped his hand away waiting for him to speak and he had to find a proper way without riling her up. 

Anyway, a few words slipped his mouth, "You kissed…" 'Oh damn.'

Her finger pointed at him in building fury, "You…" She shrugged her hand and turned her heels, "Right and I also made a mistake by returning back."

Aaron was quick to wrap his arm around her waist and pulled her to his embrace. Aarvi puffed her cheeks as soon as her back crashed to his chest.

Before she could struggle to escape, he leaned on the couch, his other arm wrapped around locking her arms and his chin rested on her shoulder.

His gentle sincere voice sounded next to her ear, "I am sorry, I was negligent. I will be careful and it won't repeat again." He kissed her shoulder as he tightened his arms.

As much she told herself as she isn't Ava Kelly anymore, a sorry from him was enough to cool her down and soften instantly.

'Why didn't I realize before that I love this simple-minded man?' She thought as her head tilted to lean on his in silent forgiveness.

She always told him she wanted to live alone but it never crossed her mind she might lose him. Probably she had felt that fear once when the city was flooded but she was too reluctant to accept her feelings.

'Does that mean I have loved him for a long time? But why?' 

She had no idea why he was so important to her but she was sure it certainly wasn't because he transplanted the heart and looked after her.

Aaron tightened his arms enveloping her in his warmth, making her feel secure and safe. He so wished he could have done it the previous day.

'Probably I should stop finding answers to some questions. If I have really fallen for him, so be it, why should I find a reason for it?' She sighed.

Her melancholic voice sounded causing him to tilt his head and look at her side profile and down spirited unfocused gaze on the busy city.

"I was so scared yesterday. I thought something happened to you and when I finally saw you, I just wanted to hug you but you…" She gasped when he moved her in jerk

Before she could complete it, he spun her around as he wrapped his arms and lifted her off the floor. Aarvi quickly wrapped her arms to balance herself before punching his back with her small fist.

She whined with the unhappiest tone she could sound, "I wanted it yesterday and you ran away." Wrapping her arms, she sulked, "You didn't even give me my forehead kiss."

He rubbed her back to calm her as he revealed, "Alex told me everything yesterday."

Getting off his arms, she pouted, "Such a busybody." Anyway, she had expected Aaron to know everything by now.

Cupping her sullen face, he kissed her forehead before asking, "What happened to your mobile? I couldn't reach you."

Aarvi realized he had no idea that only their communication was down. There were only two possibilities, either one blocking the other one's number or the network operator blocking their communication.

The second option ruled out, why will somebody go to that extent?

The first option, nobody touched her mobile so she or others didn't block Aaron's number. And why will Aaron block her number?

Since they spoke till she reached the mall, Aarvi wanted to know what happened after it to deduce where it went wrong.

She lied to respond to his question, "I was angry at you, so."

She thought he would get angry or at least knock on her head but he nodded accepting she might have switched off her phone in a fit of anger.

'Am I that childish?' Aarvi now craved to smack his head.

Controlling herself, "You better had a proper reason for your behavior. What happened yesterday?"

Aaron took her to the couch and narrated everything. Half a way, she was ready to run out to check on Lara at the hospital but he held her back.

Whenever she had seen little girls, she had missed playing with Lara by the riverside, her heart ached for the pain the little girl was going through.

Then Aarvi was having a hard time controlling her vex hearing Naomi had called her from Aaron's mobile after her missed call.

Aarvi was clenching her fist realizing Noami took advantage of his busy hands and blocked her and Alex's number. Hence her first call to Aaron went through and then it was unreachable.

'Naomi Fisher, you don't understand kindness and sympathy. Alright, I will be heartless.'
