Chapter 59: A Shopping Trip

Nora threw a glance at Demetri as he drove the car and frowned," Why do we need to go shopping for a bathing suit?"

Demetri simply sent her a look, without speaking a word so Nora could only continue," Fine, I know it was my fault for being foolish and not getting some fashionable and skimpy swimsuit. But really, it wasn’t like I had some lying around at home, since you gave me such short notice. And who is going to know what I wore in the privacy of that villa of yours?"

"We are going to the beach as well. And believe me, there are going to be people spying on us. If you look like a nun..."

Nora harrumphed and continued to complain," So I should wear a bathing suit just to show my ’womanly charms’ to random people who would be snooping on us on your grandfather’s orders? Do you see the sheer number of problems in that single statement?"

Demetri’s smile widened and he simply shook his head, "The only person who will be seeing your charms is me. What the rest will see is me doting on you."

Nora blinked at the explanation. Well, she could understand that. After all, Demetri Frost did not look like someone who would take a woman shopping. And anyone who knew him would know that. By doing something for her that he would never do for anyone else, Demetri was simply trying to prove that he was enamored with her.

"Couldn’t we have ordered it online? Or you could have asked the person who you told last time..."

"I’d bought those clothes for you. If you are uncomfortable, I can go and get the swimsuit as well. I just thought you would prefer to buy one yourself since mine might not be to your...choice."

Nora’s eyes widened at the implication of what he said. Did he mean that he might choose something too skimpy for her? Shaking her head, she muttered to herself that it was safer to go inside and buy the things herself than leave it to the man.

As they stopped outside the store, Nora tried a different tactic," Maybe you can wait outside. I’ll go inside quickly and buy..."

She trailed off as the man had already alighted the car. Sigh!

The small store that they had come to seemed to be popular among tourists as many people continued to shop there. She heaved a sigh of relief when Demetri simply wandered off to the side and leaned against a counter. At least he was not going to be judging her choices. Quickly, she moved to a rack and started browsing her choices.

Grabbing a hot pink thing, she pulled it out, excited about the beautiful colour but then immediately shoved the thing back, throwing a rather horrified glance at Demetri who was thankfully not looking. That thing was barely a string masquerading as a bikini!

After that wonderful experience, Nora was careful before she pulled anything out of a rack. Finally, after browsing for a few minutes, she had gathered a few conservative bathing suits that could be considered right for a honeymoon but also were comfortable for her to wear.

As she moved towards the dressing room, her eyes met his and she raised the things in her hands, and then pointed towards the trial room. He nodded and she quickly turned to go but she had barely reached the door of the trial room when something else was thrown onto the pile in her hand. It was ’the string’! And in white colour.

Face turning red, Nora looked up at him in confusion and he leaned down to say," There is someone watching. Model a few suits for me."

"But this..."

Nora urgently tried to gesture to the suit on the top of the pile, trying to think of a way to get this out, when Demetri leaned back and picked the bathing suit, passing it to the saleswoman who had been following her," You can model this for me at the villa. We’ll take this as well as the others she tries."

Quickly, Nora raced into the trial room, locking the door behind her. With the way things were going that man might just demand that she change into clothes right here. For a moment, she wondered if Demetri was using this as an excuse to take advantage of her, but then quickly gave up the idea. He would not use such tactics.

Pulling out the most conservative suit that she had found, she quickly pulled it on and opened the door. However, before she could say a word, he spoke," No."

And then the man walked inside, closing the door behind him! Eyes wide, she was about to question him incredulously when he covered her mouth with his hand.

"Sshh..."

Quietly, she watched as he sorted out the suits one by one in two different piles. Once done with his task, he pushed her against the mirrored wall and whispered in her ear," The ones on the right, are suitable. Discard the ones on the left. Also, time to put on an act..."

With one hand, he pulled the scrunchie from her hair, and then proceeded to tousle her hair, leaving them a bit ruffled. Next, his mouth was on hers and she quickly kissed him back, winding her arms around his neck. The man was an excellent kisser, and she would be foolish to miss this chance.

Slowly, he brought the explosive kiss to a halt and lightly nibbled on her lips, leaving them swollen and red. As each of them tried to calm their breathing, Demetri pulled out a handkerchief from his suit and tied it around his eyes, "Change out of your suit, Nora."

Quickly, Nora tried to calm herself, changing into her dress while trying to be as quiet and quick as possible.

However, as soon as they were outside, Nora made a beeline towards the exit, not sure how she was going to face anyone who had seen her and Demetri exiting from the trial room.
