Chapter 265 - My Bedroom Story
Aarvi and Shawn waited to hear something or the other thing from Dax but he was quiet as a mouse. Shawn didn\'t dare to utter a word as his neck was under the butcher knife. He least wanted to provoke Dax so he poked Aarvi until she asked.
Aarvi hesitantly asked, planning to cheer Dax later as Aaron was likely to be unavailable for dinner, "Does she have a… boyfriend?"
Dax breathed out a long sigh throwing his head back to rest, "Yep"
Shawn was about to hit his head against Aarvi\'s shoulder but the girl was already doing the same on his arm causing him to smile irrespective of the situation.
Staying together for three years, the three have many common behaviors of each other which they usually do only in their presence. He excitedly suggested trying to lift their moods up, "Hey, let\'s hit the amusement park today."
The three birthdays were always celebrated in different ways in those three years. Shawn was throwing a huge party, Dax was choosing fun places like amusement parks having crazy rides and As Ava Kelly, she chose to go on a trip for a day or two to travel.
Dax liked it, Aarvi thought to rearrange her schedule if the two plan. Anyway, Shawn and Dax looked at each other and said in unison, "Leon Harmon."
\'Ugh\' Aarvi facepalmed and suggested, "Let\'s murder him. I will kill him, you, clean up and you, clear the evidence." She pointed at Shawn and Dax as though they were really doing it.
That was the only way left for them to freely enjoy as Leon had his eyes on them and he won\'t leave the two men if he gets a single clue that she is in contact with them.
The two men looked at each other and burst into laughter looking at her big pout of annoyance. "My Dum Dum is so cute."
"My Little Heart doesn\'t even know the world." He petted her head.
They were teasing Aarvi when Tia peeked from the bedroom to know why they were laughing. Aarvi saw her first and went to her to apologize.
Tia looked nowhere but Aarvi and hugged her. Shawn and Dax immediately stood up expecting Aarvi\'s panic attack.
They rushed to them seeing Aarvi\'s hands tremble slightly but she cued them to stop before she wrapped her hand around and another hand brushed her back.
"I am sorry, we didn\'t know you had a boyfriend else I wouldn\'t have let you be in Dax\'s room."
Tia felt utterly embarrassed to face Shawn and Dax but was slightly better with Aarvi so she faced her without understanding what Aarvi meant.
Aarvi continued with a frown of concern, "Doesn\'t your boyfriend treat you well? Why haven\'t I seen him calling you or seeing you at the shop?"
Tia glanced at Dax who nonchalantly sat back on the armchair and Shawn was walking back and forth grumbling to himself.
Tia revealed with a pout keeping her voice low, "No, he doesn\'t treat me good. He is too overbearing and… We haven\'t exchanged our numbers yet." She answered truthfully.
Aarvi: "..."
She felt like some stupid guy fooled Tia and he might not be loyal to her either. She wanted to use a bad word for him but controlled, "Who is he? How did you meet such a scummy man?" Anyway, a bad word left her lips in anger.
Dax almost choked on his spit hearing Aarvi. Tia peeked at Dax and pointed her forefinger at him, "He…"
Shawn who was pacing stood at her pointed finger and froze. He immediately took steps behind before gazing at Dax. Aarvi followed the line of her point to see the scummy overbearing man.
Tia was expecting Aarvi or Shawn to scold Dax however Aarvi and Shawn were sitting in front of Dax with a look of daggers and also anticipation.
Tia looked in front of her where three friends were there and looked behind at the guest room where her clothes were present. She decided to get fresh and ran away without meeting Dax\'s gaze.
Dax yawned due to lack of sleep and looked at one who was sitting on the center table and another one pulled the armchair near and sat next to her.
Aarvi and Shawn already know Dax didn\'t ask her out instead he might have tricked her or ordered her to accept he is her boyfriend from today.
Dax shrugged, "You think I am going to tell my bedroom story."
Shawn rolled his eyes, "If there was such a story, Tia would be blushing scarlet instead of embarrassed to the core and clueless how you became her boyfriend."
Dax decided to brief only a little.
---
Half an hour earlier in Dax\'s bedroom.
Dax pulled his sleeves up as he sat down and asked Tia gravely, "Didn\'t Shawn know you have a boyfriend? He needs to be skinned alive today."
Tia was confused hearing Dax and hesitantly said, "I… don\'t have a boyfriend. You have a girlfriend."
Dax was momentarily speechless. \'I have a girlfriend? When did I get one?\' He thought and remembered he went to Tara Lane at Skyarc.
However, he hissed, "Do you think I would bring a girl to my bedroom if I had a girlfriend?"
Tia only caught the words he brought her to his bedroom and questioned, "Why did you bring me to your room when you have a girlfriend?"
Dax smacked her head hearing her repeat he has a girlfriend, "Aren\'t you sober yet?"
Tia pursed her lips and rubbed her head before remembering his words and discerning he doesn\'t have a girlfriend but she stuck to the question, "Okay, why did you bring me to your bedroom when I was drunk? Don\'t you have other rooms? I would have shared room with sister Aarvi."
Her voice was more like a child complaining helplessly. Dax felt like chuckling by remembering her screaming the whole night.
Anyway, his face turned dark and his voice cold, "Why? Did you forget you were screaming and pouncing on me last night?"
Tia was still feeling her heart drum, she really feared Dax so \'why will I pounce on you?\' She thought looking at his handsome face turning dark and his eyes narrowed at her.
She wanted to look away and was lowering her gaze when she saw his lips. Her hands flew on her lips and her eyes widened recollecting a memory of her kissing Dax.
Dax was quick to grasp that the girl remembered the kiss. He didn\'t know if she is aware that she didn\'t kiss his lips but hand.
He asked mockingly that struck her conscience, "I didn\'t know you were the type to take advantage of a man and flee."
Tia truly felt guilty and her eyes filled up, "I am sorry, I was drunk. I didn\'t mean to give you a wrong idea." She bowed to him in apology.
Dax could already tell that she actually feared him and had no plans of getting linked with him. Her scream of \'I don\'t fear you.\' was actually words to convince herself to face him.
Anyhow, the tsundere side of him still continued, "You are not allowed to drink senseless from today if not around me."
Tia was confused. Her parents never put that restriction on her so her meek question sounded instead of retorting him on the face, "Why?"
\'Why should I listen to you?\' She thought. She mentally prepared herself to whinge to Aarvi and Shawn to put this angry man in place.
Dax\'s lips slyly arced up giving her dangerous alert signals to her brain. She again tried to flee.
