"Look up at the stars," He said, pointing to the sky. As I looked up, it seemed the stars just danced for us, the moon smiling as Dima kissed me, his thumb on my cheek as he did so. I pulled away, smiling at him before getting up to straddle him. "You go fast, don't you?" He asked me with a chuckle, making me smile. "It's been 3 years since I've touched another man," I told him before kissing him again, laughter coming from his mouth. The next morning we woke up in his car, our clothes in the front seat. It probably wasn't smart of us to stay out in the woods, but it was late and we didn't wanna ruin the romantic atmosphere by having to get dressed and drive back. "Hey you," Dima said before brushing his nose against mine, the light from the car window almost blinding us. "Hey..." I kissed him softly, a peaceful expression on his face. "Fuck, what time is it? I gotta get back to the house and take Nikita to school-" "Babe, it's 9." I gave him crazy eyes while he just stayed calm. "I kinda took your phone and texted your Mom-" "You did what now!?" I grabbed my phone, looking at the messages. "Okay, all chaos at the house is fine, sorry about the freak out..." He laughed, sitting up with me. "Can I keep you til 15?" He asked me as he put his hand on my knee. "I guess.. I should probably call my Mom first though to let her know I won't be home til later..." He kissed me at the end of the word, making me wanna laugh.

He reached into the front seat, throwing my clothes at me. "I'm gonna put my clothes on in the front, okay?" "Ok." On the drive to his place I had managed to call my mom and film a TikTok. "This is your house?" I asked him as I got out of the car, looking at the mansion. "Yes," He laughed, picking me up by the waist. He basically carried me into the house, putting me down when we reached the living room. "You think you can still work while you're here?" Dima asked as he sat down on the automan, looking at me as I examined the house. "Yeah, I think I can, but do you wanna be in any of them?" He looked surprised by this question. "Uh, sure." I pulled out my phone, looking around the room. "Do you have a tripod?" "Yeah, it's in my room." He got up and found it, bringing it back to me. "Thank youuuu," I kissed him, his cheeks slightly red. So I set up the phone and started filming.

"Dim, look at this," He got off the couch and stood next to me, looking at the phone. He started leaning forward, making me laugh. "Let's not do that," I said, getting in front of him. He laughed, kissing me, then pulling me towards the sofa in a loving manner that made it look like it was part of the video. "You're not posting that, are you?" "Who says I'm not?" He looked surprised. I went to get my phone and post the video, showing Dima the outcome. "That actually looks really cute," He said as he opened it on his phone. "And the rumours have started..." I laughed, putting my head on his shoulder. "First question about us will be answered!" I said as I sat up, going to notifications. "Here it is," I got ready to film, Dima looking at me. "Are you together?" I read the question, then turned to Dima before shrugging. That was about it. We really didn't know if we were actually gonna be together and be a part of each other's lives. We were being honest.

"Babe, you're actually dating him!?" Ani asked, watching as I washed the dishes. "I am, yeah." "What's he like?" I smiled, blushing a little bit. "He's really sweet, he loves long car rides, I don't know, he's just awesome," She gave me a strange look. "Sergey, remember the last guy?" I stopped what I was doing and just looked at her, mad, with the pain coming back. "Please don't bring him up..." She sighed, putting her hand on my shoulder. "Baby, he was sweet at the beginning and a monster at the end. You don't want him to leave you broken. Nikita hasn't met him yet, right?" I shook my head in sadness. "Good. Be careful. I know this is fun and all but you don't really know him. And these celebrities are crazy."

I actually thought about what Ani had said for the rest of the night. Maybe I am going a little too fast? Dima came over later (after Nikita was already asleep), but he just stayed in my room. "Dima, we need to talk.." He looked up at me, his eyes glistening. "Babe, this is gonna sound crazy, but I'm just gonna say it. If you're using me for sex, or anything else, and if you're gonna love me then leave me dry, then I best advise you to run now." He gave me a strange look, but not a scared look, more like a look of concern. "Hey, baby, come here... I'd never leave you like that..." He held me close, tears rolling down my face. "What made you think I'd leave you in such a horrible way?" I hid my face in his neck, not wanting to talk about it. "Can we not do this right now?" I asked him, tears forming in his eyes. He nodded, hugging me tight, not letting me go.

He stayed the night, even though that was probably not a good thing to do since I had to get up early and take Nikita to school. When I came home he was still asleep. "Hmm, babe, I'm gonna film videos if you're still sleeping," I said, setting up the tripod. He didn't answer, so I made some money. I took a sip of the iced coffee I bought on the way back from the school, hearing Dima groan from under the blanket. "Oh, is prince charming now awake?" I asked, sitting on the edge of the bed. "Lazarev, fuck, what are you doing?" I put down the coffee, laying down in bed and cuddling Dima. "You look pretty when you're sleeping." He opened his eyes, looking straight at me. "There aren't any cameras on right now, are there?" Dima seemed alarmed, a little startled. "No, nothing's recording us right now..." I was a little concerned by his reaction. "Has someone filmed you in the morning?" I asked him as I sat up, Dima repeating my actions. "Yeah, it happened. I was blackmailed with the footage too," He got out of bed, my cheeks turning red as I watched him put his clothes on slowly. "Wait, is that why you came out?" He sighed before answering, putting on his shirt. "Yes actually. It was an ex-boyfriend of mine who had threatened to tell everyone I was bisexual... I decided to tell the world on my own terms and not have this video out there."
