Traviss, and a woman, a friend, drank three bars in London on December 30 last year before going to his home on Marylebone High Street. There, she claims she twice fell asleep, to wake up with him raping her.
Kate Lumsdon, prosecuting, said the complainant Traviss remember asking her if she wants to stay with him, and she suggested that she said so.
"His asking this question, it was the last thing she remembers that night, not yet awake in my bed because of severe pain. She realized that he got into it," she said.
"She asked what he was doing and told him to stop. He stopped. She was very shocked.
"He offered her a drink. She accepted and remembers it was more alcohol, the wine," she said.
The prosecutor said that the pair had a conversation in which Traviss asked her if she just wanted to be friends with him.
"She said,` Yes. ' They chatted for about half an hour, and she relaxed again.
"She could not handle what had happened, and hardly believe it. He behaved as if nothing had happened at all," said Lumsdon.
Lumsdon said the complainant felt very weak and was suffering from a condition of the blood sugar level.
She said that Travis was asked if she wanted to go back to sleep, which she did, but woke up to find him raping her again.
"I had this vague understanding of what is happening, and I could understand if this happened or a bad dream, and I just lost consciousness," the complainant told the court.
"I can not understand how someone so nice and a gentleman would do something like that," she said.
