Chapter 52 - Unless...she Likes Girls ?!
Aria and Helios went down the stairs and soon arrived to the first floor . The giant front door with golden handle was open and they went put to the garden . Aria was trying to hurry while Helios wasn\'t taking it very seriously .
" Can you at least walk a bit faster ?! " said Aria who was annoyed by Helios\'s behavior .
" I am walking . " said Helios calmly .
" It\'s getting dark soon and we won\'t be able to see it clearly . " said Aria in a hurry .
The both of them walked for a bit till the tree they were looking for was in front of them .
" Even though you are slow like a turtle we managed to reach here in time . Ten minutes before it gets dark , we can make it ! " said Aria and went to the oak tree in front of her .
" This is just a waste of time ! I clearly saw that it wasn\'t a phone the thing that was shining . A phone\'s screen can\'t be that shiny , considering that it was two trees far . " said Helios .
" We can\'t be sure unless we see it for ourselves ! " said Aria with a tiny bit of hope that maybe it was her phone .
" I will climb the tree by myself but when I come down I will need your help . Okay ?! " said Aria while looking at the tree .
\' I won\'t help you ! If I do then the funny scene of you falling from the tree would never happen . I really wanna see you fall . This will be the first step of my revenge against you for calling me blonde donkey ! \' thought Helios while looking at Aria with an obedient expression .
\' The fact that he is smiling like that is enough to convince me that he definitely won\'t help . Well....I was intending to act friendly but since he doesn\'t want to then.... \' thought Aria and too Helios\'s phone from her pocket .
" See this thing here ! I will throw it near that fountain over there if you don\'t help me even one bit . " said Aria with a cool tone .
When hearing that threatening tone from Aria\'s lips , he showed a nasty smirk . Nobody had had the courage to threaten him . Two people who dared to threaten him now were living in despair . All the people around him were afraid to even speak to him and feared his cold blooded personality while Aria could easily express her thoughts about him . She didn\'t show any fear or uneasiness when looking at him . Helios started starting right in her eyes and came near her .
" Are you threatening me ?! " asked Helios with a calm and seductive tone .
" I don\'t threat people ! It\'s against my job ! I am just not leaving much of a choice . " said Aria totally unaffected .
" Plus can you distance yourself a bit , you\'re blocking me from climbing . " said Aria and gave Helios a light push then started to climb up the tree .
Helios who was forced to wait under the tree for her continued to watch Aria climb . While watching her he remembered all the times they had met each other . They mostly fought with one another but when he tried to approach her she was totally uninterested .
\' This girl is totally unaffected by my charm . Most of the women wouldn\'t have waited till I finished the whole sentence and threw themselves at me . She isn\'t attracted to me at all and neither she is to Bekora , although she is much more gentle towards Bekora than me but still it looks more like a good friendship rather than flirt . Why is that ? Why ???? .....That\'s not normal...unless ...unless she likes girls and not boys ?!!!! \' thought Helios with his face half blue from the thought that just came in his mind and continued to look at Aria .
" Hey , are you alright ?? " asked Aria from up the tree when she say his face turn blue .
" I am fine . " said Helios .
" Then why is your face like that ? Even if you don\'t feel well make sure to hold on until you help me go down ." said Aria .
" Did you find anything ? " asked Helios .
" I am almost...reaching it ! " said Aria who was trying to catch the shiny black thing and carefully holding at the branch to not fall down .
After extending for a bit she managed to reach it .
" I got it ! I got it ! I... " said Aria very happy at the beginning but that happiness didn\'t last much when she saw what the shiny black think actually was .
" What\'s the matter ? Did you find it or not ? " asked Helios who was waken of his weird thoughts by Aria\'s sudden change of tone .
" I am coming down ! Come help me !" said Aria and started to go down the tree and Helios came near to lend her a hand .
The last light of the day went away , leaving space for the night and the moon . Aria moved her left leg down and then became ready to move her right leg . Her right leg slipped and she was about to fall on the ground . Although she was afraid she still didn\'t scream . When Helios raised his head up , Aria fell in above him .
" Are you okay ? " asked Aria .
Helios had fallen on the ground and Aria was above him . Aria could feel Helios\'s warm chest from the back .
" I am good but I hope that you can get up soon . " said Helios and Aria immediately got up .
" Sorry ! Thanks ! " said Aria when seeing Helios who continued to lay on the ground while she had gotten up .
Aria extended her hand to help him get up while smiling .
" Why are you smiling ? " asked Helios a but suspicious .
" I was just thinking, even though you are annoying , as a pillow you\'re pretty nice . " said Aria with a smile while laughing .
" Tell that to my back ! " said Helios who had hurt his back a little because of this incident.
Helios extended his hand towards Aria\'s hand and got up . Aria laughed again when seeing Helios\'s hair which had some small leaves .
" Why are you laughing now ? " asked Helios half annoyed.
" Your head has become like a bird\'s nest with all those small leaves . " said Aria and Helios smiled bitterly .
Helios bended down a little to reach Aria . His face was near hers .
" Since I was used as a pillow and even hurt my back just to save you don\'t you think it\'s only fair for you to help me take these leaves off . " said Helios in a gentle tone which made Aria gulp .
\' How can someone be so handsome even though his hair is a mess ! \' thought Aria while blushing a little .
