Aloof Detective's Lover ABS#5

Chapter 4

Lisa's POV

We both ran away from each other as soon as the air became so suffocating for us to ignore. I don't know how am I looking but he was looking like Adonis. I went to a room in haste and I don't even know if it was his room.

I hastily went inside the bathroom and removed his shirt. I was sweating like hell and actually when I saw myself in the mirror, I also agreed that I need shower. A long, warm and good shower.

I don't understand, while I was looking like this, I am sure I still saw his lusty eyes. How is that possible? I thought I was looking good but no, I am looking like a beggar who have had a good bath in months. And the bathing part is real. During my menstural cycle too, I was provided with sponge bath and few pads.

And now I don't even want to think about that time. It gives me chills.

Shaking my thoughts off, I jumped under the shower thinking about today's events. All the things happened in such haste that I didn't even get the time to process everything. While shampooing my hair I again started my thought process.

When I was thinking that I am going to die in some dirty room wearing some dirty clothes, he came and saved me.

And it's not that I am not grateful of him but all these small banters with him are actually making my life more interesting and fun. His seriousness, his aloofness and his frowns are so fun to watch.

As I turned the tap on the shower again to wash the shampoo off I noticed red flowing down the sink. I mentally cursed at the timing of my periods. I have nothing to wear!

No inner wears and pads. Nothing!

"What should I do now?" I muttered while bathing.

After lot of thinking and long shower, eventually I realized that I have no option but to call him and say that I need pads and underwear.

After drying myself with the towel kept in the cabinet, I opened the door slightly and looked around to see him rummaging through his cupboard. In just towel! My cheeks started burning at the very sight of him.

I mentally cursed the timing of my periods and decided to call him.

"Vincent." I said slowly but maybe loud enough for him to listen and turn towards me.

"What happened? Are you done? Wear this hoodie after you come out. I have already ordered few dresses and food for you." He said.

"I... Actually... Pads and underwears." I stuttered.

"What? You are on period?" He asked in shock making me feel like dying in embarrassment.

"Yes. It just recently... I mean..."

"It's okay. I understand. I will arrange everything for you in sometime." He said and went out taking his clothes.

I heaved a long sigh. It was embarrassing but thank god for his understanding. I smiled as I remembered the changes in his facial expressions.

He was so fast on his feet to help me in this situation. I don't even remember who helped me there in that hell. But they were all so brutal and uncaring even at times like this.

"Lisa?" I heard his voice and I opened the door slightly.

"Yes?" I asked.

"Take these. And I even bought pain killers and heating pad for your pain. I am keeping them in the drawer beside bed." He said and pushed the bag inside.

"Thank you Vincent." I said gratefully and took the bag from him.

"If you need anything else you can call me. I am in the living room. And also pizza has arrived so come fast." He said making me smile. He noticed that I wanted to eat pizza without me saying anything.

"Okay. I am coming." I said hastily wore the clothes in the bag and did my period routine and disposed off the packaging in the dustbin. After making sure tht the washroom is clean, I left and closed the door behind.

I went to living room where he was already sitting on the couch with his laptop. I went ahead and sat beside him on the couch. He looked at me and then again went to his laptop making my smile drop.

"Eat the pizza." He said while his fingers working on the laptop.

"Will you not eat?" I asked while opening pizza box.

"I don't like pizza. I will make something for myself and eat." He said without looking at me.

"You don't like it? Then... Why did you order large pizza?" I asked as I looked at pizza then at him.

"You are hungry and you might not have had anything material in days so I just ordered it." He said while looking at me.

"Why you didn't dry your hair? You might catch cold. Do you know your immune system is weak and with silly things like this you will be more prone to illness." He said and kept his laptop aside and looked at me.

"I just... I was hungry." I muttered slowly.

"Okay. You eat, I will dry your hair." He said and got up and went before I said anything. I looked at pizza and frowned. It's so boring to eat it alone. I thought we will enjoy it together but he is not even eating.

"Why you haven't started eating yet?" He asked as he came out with dryer in his hands.

"I am just starting." I said and picked the slice and took a bite of it. Silently ate the slice without saying anything.

"Is your stomach paining?" He suddenly asked as he started drying my hair.

"Not that much. Slight pain why?" I asked him.

"You were not saying anything so I thought you are in pain. From the moment I met you, your questions didn't stop so I thought you are not feeling well." He said as he touched my scalp making me squirm

"Nothing like that. Just I thought we will have pizza together but eating alone is boring. And for courtesy sake you are not even sitting with me." I said and looked at the pizza.

"Fine... I will sit " He said after few minutes of silence.
