Chapter 62 - Hit him with a book (1/2)
Aria's cheeks were like the cheeks of a newborn . Helios thought that her skin was unusualy soft . Most of the girls's skin was full of cream powder while Aria's skin was different . It was soft and clean without even applying makeup .
' She must feel unconfortable here on the chair , better move her to the coutch . ' thought Helios and put his hands in Aria's waist .
Aria's eyes opened in bit of a fear the instant she felt someone touching her waist .
' Oh no ! Someone's touching me ! Is it one of the mens who tried kidnapping Mana ?! No ! A guard is outside and he cannot possibly enter ! Is it one of the guards ?! They are the ones who're protecting you Aria ! Then....Is it a pervert ?! Whoever it is is no good person since he put his hands around my waist . Keep calm Aria and counterattack ! ' thought Aria the instant she woke up .
She was half asleep and couldn't see clearly who was the person in front of her , also the light also blocking her sight a little .
” You pervert , don't you dare touch me ! ” said Aria with a fierce tone .
In that moment Aria quickly got the thickest book that was near her and smashed the person's head with it making him fall down .
” Heh ! You have found the wrong prey to mess with ! I will be sure to teach you a good lesson ! ” said Aria with a proud tone that she had defeated the pervert .
” I wasn't sure before but now I am convinced that you're a crazy little tigress ! ” said Helios while rubbing his head who was received a good bomb of seven thousand and eight hundred sixty pages book .
” Wait , You ?! You're still here ?! ” said Aria startled when she saw Helios .
' I really shouldn't have tried to move her to the couch . It's my fault for thinking that she may be uncomfortable . ' thought Helios with an annoyed expression .
When Helios got up he sat on the couch . He rubbed his head another time and was about to leave. Aria looked at him rubbing his head and thought that maybe she had hurt him a lot . She went near him when he was about to get up .
” Does....does it hurt ? ” asked Aria a bit worried .
” Try receiving a book as thick as that....I am not made of stone , of course it hurts ! ” said Helios a bit annoyed .
” You startled me...I was asleep and.....you suddenly grabbed my waist.....I was scared who it was and acted without thinking . I am sorry ! ” said Aria with a guilty tone .
Helios looked at Aria's face . She indeed was feeling guilty and a bit worried . This expression of hers was really unexpected to Helios . Aria was looking straight at his eyes and lifted her hand up . She wanted to move his forelock a little to see whether he was hurt a lot or not .
” What are you doing ? ” asked Helios a bit surprised .
” I am checking if you're hurt a lot or not . ” said Aria and started to check then she noticed a scar .
” I see a scar here ! I think I have a bandage with me . ” said Aria and searched for the bandage in her pocket .
' This crazy little tigress.....she must be feeling really guilty judging by her worried expression . ' thought Helios with a smile .
” I am pretty sure it will leave a scar . Thanks to you I will become ugly ! My handsome face that was preserved so well was actually damaged by a crazy little tigress like you . ” said Helios with a half annoyed tone .
' Only girls are afraid of scars . Ah yes...I forgot that he is a narcissist . ' thought Aria with a helpless expression .
” You're making such a scene over a small scar like this . Plus , who said you became ugly ?! You look just like Harry Potter with this scar . Pretty cool if you ask me !” said Aria with a smile and then got up .
” Hahahaha ! I guess you're the only one who will think like that nowdays . ” said Helios with a laugh .
” Maybe ! ” said Aria with a thinking hard expression .
” Although it was a bad experience for me I must say that you're srength , is a very efficent quality . I really don't understand how can you be strong with this tiny body of yours . ” said Helios while looking at Aria from head to toe .
” By the way , you fell asleep so you must be tired . How about you continue tomorrow ?! You will feel more refreshed after some sleep . ” said Helios and then he also got up .
” No thanks ! I will only sleep for three hours and then I will go back to work . I need to finish this case fast . ” said Aria .
” You need some rest ! If you continue , you may miss some clues or faint again ! It's better for all if you go and rest . ” said Helios with a serious tone . When she heard that he knew about her collapsing she thought that maybe Bekora had told him .
” Thank but I don't care what's best for all , I only care what's best for me ! And I don't have time . ” said Aria with a determinded tone .
” You will only cause trouble ! ” said Helios .
” No I won't ! Last time I fainted because....let it be . True I fainted but I did not faint because I overworked . At the university I would send days on the library trying to figure solutions and mistakes so I am used to this way of solving things . ” said Aria and returned to her desk .
” Fine then , do as you like ! ” said Helios annoyed and went out .
” That person was fine and now he's angry , haaaa.....He must have a mood disorder disease . ” said Aria a bit surprised then continued with her work .
When the guard who was in charge of guarding Aria saw that Heios went out of the library , he bowed and returned to his position . Helios walked through the garden and went straight to his room . On his way he kept thinking about how Aria must have lived during her university years . She had to study hard to be on first place and become who she is today .
' She even tells me she's used to this way of studying ! I don't know why I feel impressed but at the same time angry . It's none of my business so it's not worth thinking about it . ' thought Helios and changed his clothes .
He wore his terry night suit and went to bed covering himself with the finest silk blanket . Helios's bed was so big that a whole football team could sleep in there . After having a busy day full of work he was dead tired and fell asleep fast .
