Again, her heart leaped.

“How...do you know you love me?” She asked.

Dewey chewed his lip, thoughtful and quiet as he led them into the elevator. He didn’t know how to put it into words, the way she made him feel and how it equates to feelings of love.

“I want to say something cliché, like how I know I’d do anything for you. That being around you is the only thing that makes sense, that feels right. Which is all true, but still doesn’t doesn’t do my feelings justice. Or something ironic, that I’m your bodyguard but when I’m with you is the only time I feel safe, like I’m home. Or I could say something factual, how after being kidnapped and terrorized, even in the blaze of heavy gunfire; you saw me see my Mom and you asked if I was okay. Or the simplicity of it, that I could watch you watch Anastasia 100 times, the pure intrigue in your eyes like you’re watching for the first time and...And there’s just no where else I’d rather be, no one else I would rather be with...It’s all those things. That’s how I know I am in love with you.” Dewey explained, gazing back down at her then.

Dimitra felt her heart swell. Her cheeks pinked as she looked up at Dewey after his thoughtful confession.

“I...that’s...you sound so sure.” Dimitra said, which struck something within herself. She wished she was as sure as he was. She gave his arm a squeeze. “And I guess that’s the thing...I’m not sure about my feelings for you. Not yet. I...I’ve neber had a boyfriend, you know that, so I don’t know how it works. I don’t know how to love someone romantically. Like, I know I love my Mama, my Papa, and my siblings, but I suppose that’s a different kind of love. I’m pretty sure I love you too, but...I don’t know if it’s that kind of love because I’ve never had a romantic sort of love.” She could feel herself starting to ramble so she took a breath and brought herself back. “I don’t know if I love you the same, but I want to know. I just...can you be patient with me? Can you...will you wait?”

Dewey smiled softly, listening to Dimitra and feeling her squeeze his arm.

“Of course I’ll wait. And Dimitra, if you decide you don’t love me...Romantically, that’s okay. I won’t disappear from your life or make you feel bad about it.” Dewey tried to assure.

“Do you promise?” Dimitra asked, perhaps a little too quickly. More than anything, she feared Dewey would take his leave if she couldn’t return his feelings.

He looked to her and smiled again, nodding assuringly. “I promise.”

Dimitra let out a huff of relief and proceeded to slump into Dewey then, her cheek pressed to his arm then.

“That makes me feel better.” She admitted.

Mob women often shared a communal space. Regardless of alliance, upscale establishments were a safe zone (sometimes). There was a spa, frequented by most mob women. It was all inclusive and pretty expensive, but not so expensive Riley couldn’t drop her daughter off there for some pampering.

Marzia was there too, it would so happen. Getting pampered herself, a Brazilian blow out and a pedicure was just what she needed to desires from mob life.

Dimitra had just sent her mother off and was heading into the spa often frequented by her and her sisters (and Riley too if she wasn’t busy). It had been a hot minute since The Incident™️, but things had settled into their regular rhythm and Dimitra convinced her mother she’d be just fine on her own, getting her usual mani-pedi done.

She’d no sooner come in when she was promptly greeted and swept away by a handful of employees who clearly recognized her (and her status).

“Miss Nikitin, it’s been so long since you’ve come in! Is your mother well? Your father? Come sit, we have a station all set up for you.” One woman flapped her hand towards an empty seat set up and away from the rest as a sort of “VIP Section”.

“Mama is fine, busy as ever, but she said she’d try and join me if she finished her errands soon enough. Papa is in Bali doing a commercial right now, but he’s good as well.” She answered politely.

Marzia couldn’t help but glance to her side at the sound of someone being seated next to her. It was of course the Russian Mob princess, the very one her estranged son was charged to guard. She had thought a lot about Dewey after their exchange, she knew it was in his best interest she continue to avoid him. But she still wondered, what has he become? What is he like?

Dimitra got herself all settled in and even ordered herself some sparkling water to sip at while she got her pedicure. As she adjusted the seat to her liking, she happened to glance over to the person she was sat next to. Her eyes bugged in an instant and she felt her heart to a panicked jump.

Marzia Columbo was seated right next to her. Dewey’s mom.

Marzia was also feeling panicked, being so close to someone who was close to her son, and also wondering how near or far her mom was. Her goons did kidnap her not that long ago.

“I...um...hello.” Dimitra said, giving a nervous smile. “Funny running into you. Or, I mean, maybe not so funny. I don’t know.”

“Uh hey, I guess it’s sorta funny.” Marzia said quietly, her own nervous laughter trailing off.

“I, uh, I can see if they have another seat open if this is...weird.” Dimitra offered. She could read it as plain as day on Marzia’s face that it was a bit awkward for her too.
