There was a long queue at the billing counter, one of the men standing behind Aria rubbed his shoulder against her. She frowned and stepped aside but the man followed her.
"If you are feeling bored, go outside, and wait. I will get these paid right away," Travis noticed that Aria was moving around restlessly.
"No need, I am fine," Aria said. After a few seconds, Aria clutched Travis's arm tightly.
"Aria, tell me what happened," Travis asked sternly.
"That guy ..behind me is misbehaving," Aria said in an irritated tone.
Travis' eyes darkened when he learned someone was troubling Aria and he pushed her in front of him.
The man was about to touch Aria's ass when Travis twisted his hand harshly.
"Ahh…leave me," that man screamed.
"Get out of here before I separate your hand from the body," Travis looked pissed off. Even Aria got scared and swallowed nervously, seeing the burning rage and anger in his eyes. She also knows that he is trying to minimize his threats as they are in public. If Travis applied a little more pressure that man's hand will be fractured.
"I am sorry, please forgive me," that man pleaded. Travis glanced at Arai and then left the man's hand. That man was scared for his life and ran out of the store leaving his groceries on the floor.
"Are you okay?" Travis asked after he calmed down.
"Yes," Aria nodded her head slowly.
Travis put his hand on Aria's shoulder and pulled the trolley forward. Aria tried to remove his hand but Travis shot her a deadly glare.
"I don't trust anyone here, be good and stand still," Travis commanded.
"Just because one man is a pervert doesn't mean all are bad. Leave me now," Aria demanded. Travis immediately removed his hand and Aria took a step forward when he put his hand on her waist and this time his grip was stronger and tighter than before.
Ava sighed, she should have known that Travis never listens to anyone and he always acted like a sheer protector since their childhood.
She never liked outdoor games while growing up, Travis was the only one who did not find any fault with that, and whenever she messed up the game he never said anything. It was given that whichever team she was in, that team usually lost, and yet Travis always convinced Logan to take her on their team.
She and Logan never gelled up well due to their contradicting personalities. They always bickered like cats and dogs but beneath all that, they truly and deeply cared for one other.
"Keep on defying me and see what happens," Travis growled. Aria rolled her eyes but did not try to move away from him. Billing was done and she had purchased so much that there were four large bags. Aria took two bags and was struggling to carry the remaining two whenTravis took the two bags on the floor and also snatched the bags from Aria's hand.
"Hey you don't need to carry everything," Aria yelled.
"I don't need to, but I want to," Travis started walking. Aria had to run a little bit to match his footsteps.
"Were you always so stubborn or this is something which happened while I was away?" Aria asked.
Travis looked at her eyes sensually and whispered,"Oh you will be shocked if you discover everything about me."
Aria was stunned for a moment, his voice was so smooth and low, she has never heard him talking like that. Was he teasing her or was she thinking too much?
"Are you not coming," Travis yelled.
She came to her senses and Travis had already walked so far away from her. She cursed at him for messing her mind and told him to wait which only made him walk faster.
"Uhhh…I hate you. Are you preparing for the Olympics? What's with your speed?" Aria was panting when they reached her apartment.
"Blame your weak stamina for everything," Travis took the key from Aria's hand.
Aria took all the bags inside and started to arrange everything in its place. A few items have to be kept in the refrigerator, otherwise they will be spoiled. Usually Aria could have put on a Netflix show as soon as she came home but one of the supermarket staff had reminded her twice to store the items correctly so she was following their instructions.
It started to rain heavily and Aria went to close the windows near the study table so that the electronics would not get wet.
"It's raining," Travis stated.
"Hmm," Arai continued her work.
"It's raining heavily," Travis repeated. Aria turned towards him and raised her brows asking him why he was saying something so obvious.
"Roads will be slippery and it's not safe to travel at this time," Travis explained.
"Ya, I know," Aria nodded, not understanding what he was implying.
"You don't want anything to harm me right," Travis asked.
"Obviously," Aria replied immediately.
"Then tell me which room I should stay in?" Travis turned around and started walking towards the bedrooms.
Aria's mouth opened wide. Did this guy just shamelessly declare he was going to spend the night in her house or did he fool her into thinking that she was worried about his well being and begged him to stay.
"Travis, you cannot stay the whole night. Once the rain stops you can go back to your suite," Aria said.
"I have checked the weather reports, there is a cyclone and the rain won't stop till tomorrow morning," Travis lied.
"What about your clothes?" Aria asked.
"Don't worry, I always carry a pair of clothes in my car," Travis messaged his driver to deliver his things.
"I think ..," Aria was interrupted by Travis.
"I am very hungry, go heat the food, I will join you ," Travis instructed.
The doorbell rang and the driver stood there with two bags in his hand. One was Travis's laptop bag and the other was his clothes and personal hygiene items.
Travis was very particular about cleanliness and took a bath twice a day. Once after his gym workout and the other before going to bed to get a good night's sleep.
Aria was heating all the dishes prepared by the cook. After fifteen minutes she heard footsteps behind her and turned around.
"Do you want fish or …," All the remaining words got stuck in her mouth.
