Cillian ordered me an Uber home, which I'm thankful for cause Papa has lots of questions. "Where was Aleksandr?" He asks, I look over to Ally who looks away from me sheepishly, "I don't know otherwise I would have found him, just like I told you about Niki".

"Where did you stay then?" Papa quizzes, shit, think of a lie, think of a lie. "A hotel" I reply, good job Willow. "With what money? The boys had the card" He presses, "My good looks obviously" I try to joke but Papa doesn't find it funny at all.

"Both of you leave" He orders Niki and Ally, they get up and walk out quickly, yeah just leave me to fend off the dragon you asshat's.

"полевой цветок (wildflower)" Papa warns.

"Papa" I mimic, "Tell me who you were with" His voice sounds angry... "No, you'll get more angry at me" I mumble under my breath avoiding eye contact with him, I hear him heavily sigh.

"Willow, I am not angry nor will I be angry. I just want to make sure that you were with someone who could keep you safe" He bargains, I don't think I can sweet talk my way out of this.

I sit silently trying to find any way to dig myself out of this hole but it's useless, "Cillian" I finally respond, I take a quick glance at him, shock spread across his face, "Cillian?" He repeats as if to make sure he heard me right, "Yes Papa".

"How? When? How?" He hums more to himself but I answer anyway. Swallowing the burning lump in my throat I finally make eye contact with him "After the fight, we have been talking to each other, when I go out with Niki..." I trail off not wanting to finish my sentence, "You've been with Cillian, Nikoli has been covering for you" He finishes, and I just nod.

"Does Aleksandr know?" He questions, "No, not yet". Papa nods his head to himself "Does he take good care of you? Treat you right?" He speaks after a few minutes of silence, "Yes Papa, he does".

"Are you... official?" He questions somewhat awkwardly, "No" I shake my head, "I don't want to squish your happiness полевой цветок (wildflower), but you do understand if this comes to light you will have lots of questions to answer that I can't help with" He explains, I know, Niki and I have talked it through thoroughly.

"Yes Papa, I don't want to do anything to embarrass you or upset you, I can stop talking to-" I explain but Papa cuts me off, a taste of my own medicine I guess. "No, the only reason to break it off is if you're not happy and safe with him, alright?", I can't stop the smile on my face hearing his words of approval, I nod my head in understanding.

"Good, now go upstairs and start getting ready, I have to go and make sure the workers haven't fucked up the decorations for tonight's party. Я люблю тебя, ива (I love you Willow)" He smiles softly down at me before kissing my head and walking out of the room.
