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 .
