"What the hell are you doing here?" Dinah asked slowly. Why was she here? Here in Star City?

Ignoring the question, Aaliyah went to take a look around the safe house observing the interior for a moment or two before retrieving a bottle of neat whiskey from the counter and poured herself a drink. She took a sip of it and placed the glass on the counter next to the bottle.  "Nice place. You redecorated it?"

"You might say that. Why are you here?" Dinah repeated the question this time in different words, not in the mood for her games.

 Aaliyah shrugged nonchalantly as she sat on the couch, crossing  her legs toward her on purpose. Dinah bit her lip, looking up to the ceiling.  "It didn't take long for me to find you. For someone who claims to be trained by five of the greatest vigilantes in history, you sure do leave huge breadcrumbs for me to pick up." 

At the irritated look she was getting from Dinah, the fair haired  woman let out a sigh of longing. "Would you believe me if I said that I missed you?"

Dinah pretended to think for a movement before giving her the obvious answer with a hostile smile. "No."

"Smart. I see you have inherited your intuition from your aunt." Aaliyah pointed out.

"No thanks to you." Dinah retorted, making the dark haired woman laugh softly. "You can't be here."  Dinah told her in a seriously tone.

"Why is that, Elizabeth?" Aaliyah asked feigning hurt as she got up from the couch and slowly walked over to Dinah who was looking anywhere but at her. "Are you grieving for the loss of Serena, still?"

 "No. And if you came here to walk on the memory lane, don't bother. " Dinah said, attempting to control herself when Serena was brought up as she turned her back on the exotic woman.  It wasn't a day that she thought about Serena and how badly it ended.

"It wasn't my intention." Aaliyah told her sincerely, causing Dinah to scoff incredulously. Not wanting to upset the Argent Defender further, she slowly turned Dinah back to her, placing her index finger under Dinah's chin to lift her head up so that she could look at her in eyes. "Forgive me for bringing up old wounds that haven't heal fully. But do not forget when I first met you, you were broken. I simply gave you the purpose that you lost."

"And yet you dragged me to the dark side, almost to the point of no return."  Dinah hissed remembering the dark path she was on temporary.  Aaliyah winced ever so slightly of the reminder.

"I realize that." Aaliyah conceded. "But during our separation, it made me realize the errors I made during our affair. I was alone and you were the only one who understood what loneliness can do to a person after the loss of a loved one. I'm sorry if I led you otherwise."

"Oh. Honey."  Dinah drawled sarcastically, not relenting in her conviction. "You don't get to break into my Aunt's house and sweet talk me into rekindling our relationship. I'm not heading back to the abyss again." 

Aaliyah sighed shaking her head at her former lover's stubborness. "Seeing that I won't be able to convince you otherwise, I'll shall head back to my hotel room. I'm staying at Ostrander hotel if you're interested of course." And with that she left Dinah and headed to exit the house a bit disappointed.

Once the door was closed, Dinah let out a huge sigh of relief. Man, that dress didn't help her in any favor. "That was too close for comfort." She muttered.
