CHAPTER 47

|| Savannah's POV ||

" Where are we going?", I questioned, looking at Ares who had a mysterious smile on his lips. He just called me to get in his car urgently. I looked down at my reflection, instantly furrowed, hating how shabby I was looking right after my hot sportsman boyfriend. He didn't even give me time to change. I had to run as soon as he called me, something like an emergency meeting.

Ares flashed me a grin, rolling the car windows and letting afternoon's cool weather, slipping into the car space,

" To go shopping. Have you forgotten that Aria is having her birthday tomorrow?"

Oh, how could I forget that!

Each year, Aria was always excited about her birthday. It wasn't because she was having some grand celebrations. It was her only hope that her parents would join her that day. Although her mom was here, I didn't think that she cared about her birthday or anything else like a conscious mom. Besides, she went through a lot these days. I didn't think that she was in the mood to celebrate her birthday. But Ares and I weren't going to just sit in our place. We decided to throw a welcome party for her unborn baby. Ares would call his friends and I will invite a few of our classmates.

I nodded, tying my hair behind roughly,

" Right! Are we going to get clothes for Aria or the baby?"

I asked curiously and watched myself in the mirror, trying to fix my look as much as possible. Oh god! This guy could have just said that we were going shopping. I looked terrible in these loose pajamas.

Ares gave me his sexiest smile and I cringed inwardly, praying that he wasn't having any dirty idea of having car sex. If he thought of doing something like that I wouldn't be able to get in his car ever possibly.

Ares shook his head, denying and muttering before speeding up his motion,

" No, we are going to get dresses for you."

My jaw dropped, speechless and overwhelmed by his words. Still, I didn't want him to spend his money on me unnecessarily. I tried to resonate, biting back my smile,

" But Ares... It's Aria's birthday...I don't need any clothes.."

" Quiet, Princess!", he hushed me, putting his finger on my lips. His touch immediately got me squirming but I composed myself, hard from acting like a horny kid.

He sent me a warm gaze, smiling big between his words,

" Have you forgotten that this is your first official appearance as my girlfriend?"

Damn! He was stating facts now!

Before everything, we were pretending to be a couple. Now, we were dating for real and I understand that Ares wanted to claim me officially. Nothing can make a girlfriend happier than to know that her boyfriend isn't ashamed of presenting her in front of the whole world.

My cheeks began to blush and I nodded enthusiastically. If my presence was going to matter to him, I would make sure that he never feels uneasy with me.

" Is this okay with you now?", I growled mad at Ares, swinging my hips dramatically. This was the eleventh time, I was changing my dress because he had too many problems with my outfit. Some deemed it too revealing to him and finally, I had to pick this knee-hugging black top.

Ares dropped the magazine from his hand. Giving me a long thoughtful stare, a contended smile formed on his lips. Finally, I was relieved. The top wasn't too revealing, only backless but exposed my legs vividly.

He walked over to me and grinned down sheepishly, his eyes darkening in desire,

" You should put it off quick fast, Princess. I don't want to tear this expensive dress of yours!"

His malicious grin went wide and I just shot him a glare, blushing from his dirty thoughts. One thing, I started to learn about Ares. He became a possessive, needy man ever since we started dating for real.

Smacking at his shoulders, I turned around to give it to the staff to backpack. That woman around my age couldn't stop smiling at Ares. First, she recognized the trophy winner Ares, and second, my boyfriend was insanely handsome. Sometimes, I was jealous of his born charm.

Clearing my throat, I asked the stuff through my gritted teeth,

" Please wrap this for us!"

She dazed out, ad jerked before realizing that I was standing right in front of her. Dropping her eyes shyly, she grabbed it from my hands and retreated quickly to the reception.

Turning around, I rolled my eyes at Ares who was smiling at me,

" You sure have fans everywhere, Ares!"

He chuckled, raising his eyes playfully,

" Jealous, Princess?"

I snorted and couldn't lie this time. Dating the most eligible bachelor was bound to attract a lot of commoners. Still, I couldn't help but feel jealous. I wanted to have him as my own, completely and wholeheartedly. While dating Finn, I wasn't this possessive. Probably because he didn't know my deepest scars. Ares was the person who could turn my legs wobbly and make my emotions wild at the same time.

I informed him before heading for the next section,

" I want to buy one for Aria too."

Ares agreed instantly, dropping back on his couch,

" Do what you wish, Princess. I am here to pay!"

I couldn't help but smile at his words. Who knew that this playboy was such perfect boyfriend material?

___

I stalled around the next section, specially made for pregnant women. This area was occupied with loose clothes and gowns. I wanted to pick an elegant one for Aria. This place wasn't highly expensive but the clothes, and attires were perfect for our standard. I was glad that Ares didn't want to throw out money again.

Smiling at his loving gesture, I began to stall through the row of clothes until a familiar voice hit my eardrum.

" I want to buy this..and this..not 2 but 5.."

" But Kelly..you just bought one week back.."

In a while, my pleasant mood was gone. Looking back, I spotted Finn and Kelly shopping together at the same store.

Why did I have such bad luck?

It was the first time that I saw Finn after the last incident. He was temporarily banned and isolated himself from the world. But now, he started making public appearances again because soon it was going to be over. He was going to join the biggest match in this state " T40 Cup ".

For the sake of my happy mood, I switched the path before they could spot me. I pitied Kelly mentally. Even after knowing about Finn's scandal, and infidelity, she was living with him.

Don't forget that your boyfriend was also a playboy!

My mental voice shut me down and I slipped away, trying to jerk off those thoughts from my mind. I should focus on our future.

" Seems like Ares is fucking you well!", a sarcastic voice remarked from my back. Without even taking a look, I knew who it was.

Why him again?

Running my hand through the white gown, I turned around to warn Finn who was smirking devilishly,

" Finn, Ares is around the corner. You better leave my side."

" You think that I am afraid of him?", Finn growled, his voice turning fury. His eyes were cold and something didn't feel right in his gaze. I looked away, trying to get over this conversation,

" I am not in the mood... Please go back to your girlfriend.."

Finn scoffed at my words and rambled his words out to say for Ares,

" Listen to me, Savannah! He won't win the final cup even if he plays tricks a thousand times. Tell him to be prepared to stay in the local team always."

Sighing, I turned around to meet his cold eyes and blurted confidently,

" Empty words don't give you a trophy, Finn. We will see what happens and I am sure that you have learned your lesson for using malicious actions."

His face turned sullen and I attempted to get away with a victorious smirk. He looked persistent to win the upcoming cup. I had no issues with that but hoped that he wouldn't try to push Ares into trouble again.

" Are you so confident in him?", Finn blurted, blocking me to leave this section. He didn't stop with his words and continued with a knowing smile,

" Ares is a playboy. After he is done playing with you enough, he will throw you out again. Save your ass before turning into rotten meat."

Despite my hatred for him, his words stuck in my mind. Ares was always into ladies. Now, his career was shining and more of his fan girls was increasing daily. Even it came to my ears that many rich ladies died on him and had a big crush on him. I trusted him but I didn't trust those ladies who could seduce men easily.

Will Ares leave me if he finds someone better than me?
