The Traps of Black Swan

After quickly finishing his work, Aaron took her to the Mocon Lake for an evening stroll to spend more time with her which was on their way to Avron mansion.

Aarvi had no idea until the driver of Aaron's car stopped in front of the gate, "I am not coming…"

Aaron who had opened the car door for her was confused, "What's wrong?"

Aarvi uttered out, "I am not wearing…" 'clothes?' She corrected herself, "I am in your hoodie, are you expecting me to walk around this way." She pointed at an oversized hoodie on her which might look casual to others but she didn't feel it was presentable to walk outside.

Aaron had seen her many types of clothes, shorter than what she was wearing so he didn't feel awkward, rather she looked cute and petite.

Lowering himself, he flashed her an alluring smile to confuse her and wrapped his arm around her waist, sleekly pulling her out and closing the car door.

Aarvi was fascinated by his smile that brought a tiny curve of her lips but didn't get to react until she stood on her black heels wearing a Black hoodie that had big bold letters in white and her long silky straight hair on her back.

Her heels or outfit or hairstyle are nothing linked to anything. "Aaron Rivas, people will think I have a problem in my brain. I look like a joker." She hissed and turned but the Maybach had gone and heard him chuckle in amusement.

"You-" She didn't get to chide him, a man reached and bowed before speaking, "President Rivas, the shoes."

Aarvi calmed down knowing he was still smart, three walked inside as she tied her hair to a messy bun and wore the hood on her head.

Aaron pointed to the bench for her to sit and took the shoe bag from the man. He kneeled before her and helped her wear shoes without giving her a chance to argue while her jaw had dropped deep down.

Her forefinger poked him to get his attention to hear her and she heard his hum, "Let's get married. I will be a big bad wolf who earns and you will be my little shy wife waiting to serve me every day."

The man who was standing aside let out laughter before controlling and took the shoe bag with her heels and left glancing at inarticulate Aaron.

"But my Big bad wolf is dainty for your Little shy wife." He quickly washed his hands aside looking at her speechless.

'I am your dainty? Am I looking like food to you? Hmph.' She thought and stood on the bench trying to dominate his height standing on high, "Who knows? You might become my delicacy."

Aaron wasn't sure if she was trying to dominate him as a counter or she knew what she was telling. He didn't take it further knowing she will run away, "We will know that soon." He held her hand and cued her to get off.

Alighting down, she ran towards the food stool and pointed at it, "I don't have cash." 

Aaron stood awestruck at the bench seeing her sprint away. The Aarvi she was for two years was totally contrasting to the one who she is with him now. He is delighted to know that her versions from flirting to innocence are open around him.

"Aaron…" Her voice brought him out daze and went towards her to feed her some junk.

He could understand she was letting him see the various sides of her to let him know the real her. Anyhow he knows her all sides better but he still has to know she is as bold as she sounds about themselves while flirting. Or trying to protect herself thinking herself as weak.

Aaron who had stopped her from eating unhealthy food couldn't believe himself when she kept demanding different junk foods and to his despair, he couldn't bring himself to turn her down seeing her make a pitiful face. He mentally decided to avoid her from the places that sell junks clearly labeling it as unhealthy food.

Their junk list started with chocolate waffles, then big cotton candy and it continued as the duo strolled on the bank of the lake talking with each other.

Aarvi who heard couples calling nicknames for each other turned to Aaron, "You always call me Aarvi, don't you want to address differently?"

Aaron's grip on the water bottle tightened lightly before calming. Of course, he wants to call her Cupcake but was afraid that he might trigger her memory negatively. "Does that mean, you want me to call by sweet nicknames?"

Aarvi thought for a second wrapping her hand around his arm, "Why not? Isn't it how couples always do?"

"Monster…"

Aarvi: "..."

Aaron quickly explained to tease her, "A monster who eats lots of cupcakes."

Aarvi never in her dreams thought she would get such a nickname from anybody, "Then I will call you Monster too."

He didn't get the reaction he expected and didn't expect the same one for him. Aarvi grinned cheekily and continued, "You work at two places, then at home and also cook so many cupcakes. A monster chef."

Seeing him silent, Aarvi probed, "Let me change your name to Monster on my mobile."

Aaron held her phone as soon as it was unlocked, "I will change it to My Love…"

'My Love?' Aarvi jumped to get her mobile but his left hand held her away, "Aaron Rivas, I am not letting you save it. I will change it. Aaron."

He suggested again, "How are Hubby and Wifey? Hmmm... I like this." Then he changed the 'Doctor Rivas' to 'Hubby'. 

He locked the mobile after showing it to her and slid in his pocket looking at her wordless. Aarvi saw his pockets and nodded thinking to herself, "Aaron Rivas, I had changed Bae to brainless for Sean. What do you think I will rename yours?"

Wrapping his hand around her shoulder, he continued to walk as he responded, "Headless… Homeless… Harmless... Heartless…"

Aarvi answered her question, "Hopeless… Who said you are my hubby? You are so cheesy."

Aaron chuckled hearing her and twisted her words, "Are you asking for romantic names? Alright, Baby!"

Aarvi: "..."

"Baby Girl?"

Aarvi turned around, "Okay I am leaving." They were talking about nicknames but 'all he knows are sweet nothing.' She thought and was leaving, he said, "Doozy."

Aarvi paused liking the word choice and turned around to face him but the man hugged her, "For an outstanding, unique girl, 'Doozy' sounds perfect. Isn't it?"

Aarvi nodded in approval, "My nickname itself will be a compliment to me."

Then Aaron changed his words, "But I will call you My love." He let out an enticing chuckle seeing her frozen, anyhow he still likes to call her Cupcake.

...

Walking out, Aarvi whinged, "Can't you stop me? I will get a stomach ache today."

She was the one who wanted to try all and made faces at him to win on his stubbornness so that he could buy them for her and here she is blaming him.

"No more junk for you." Aaron passed his verdict.

Aarvi started her pitiful act, blinking helplessly, slightly pouting lips and tugging his shirt, "Monthly once, only once."

Aaron looked at her slender finger clutching his shirt then at her petite face. He agreed despite knowing she was acting, "Alright." She had the independence to eat whenever she wanted yet never cheated so he agreed.

Aarvi's lips twitched, 'This man agrees for everything.' She looked around and chose the lake, "Let's go and jump in the lake."

"Wait… What!?" Aaron quickly pulled her back without understanding her sudden shift of mood.

"What what? You are agreeing with all my actions. Say 'No' when it is needed." She took a step to walk but turned around feeling really hopeless, "Are you really so obedient? Or afraid that I will run away?"

Aaron flicked on her forehead, "You hadn't eaten these foods for more than three years. You used to like these so I allowed it."

She again looked around and pointed to the club, "Let's go and drink." She hadn't touched alcohol too.

Seeing her take a step, Aaron pulled her hand back and ordered, "Don't even think about it. Do you want to be admitted to the hospital?"

What Aarvi hates more than the jerks who hurt her? Hospital.

She suddenly got irritated at the word, "I was just kidding. Do you have to remind me that I am a heart patient?" She walked away shrugging his hands off. Living for so long as his patient, it was still difficult for her to suddenly accept he is her boyfriend too. 

Aaron realized his tone gave off seriousness. A few steps, he reached her and pulled her to his embrace, "I didn't mean that."

Instead of hugging him back, she punched him trying to calm herself, "Don't pull me from behind." 

Aaron involuntarily checked her heartbeats leaving her at loss. She knows he is worried but treating her like a patient even when they were hanging out? It wasn't fitting for their relationship.

She already has a lot on the plate to think about. She doesn't want to create problems between them so, "Aaron, we need to talk." 

Aaron had just relaxed when her heartbeats were going to normal, hearing her serious tone and seeing her serene face hiding her emotions left him edgy, "What's wrong?"

Aarvi stood a step away facing him, "I agree I have to be careful about my health and you are worried about me. If you keep making me feel like a patient, I can't treat you as anything other than a doctor."

It was really important for him to know why she gets scared of little things, her such anxiety and psychological behavior were also affecting the health of the heart that he didn't want to speak to her and burden more.

He had no choice instead of looking after her well. He can't behave like he wasn't worried whenever she frowns due to irregular heartbeats. Her health is important over everything, he can't agree with her even at the cost of their relationship.
