rose was asleep in the seat in from of Dimitri and now everything seemed stupid. there she was sleeping so peacefully and everything connected, she is young and making stupid decisions what was so wrong with that? who was he to even step in? he knew her for what, 10 minutes? 

they both needed to change things in their lives and maybe, just maybe this was a perfect way to do it. They did get along fairly well, for the most part, right? dimitri would have given this much more thought but the angel sleeping in front of him had his full attention, he wasn't sure what to do. she was sleeping so peacefully but it was an uncomfortable position and if he didn't do anything she would definitely have a cramped neck when she gets up. 
Dimitri being unsure put a pillow behind her head and opened the blanket for her but before putting it on her he noticed she had cuts and marks on her hands. 
not in a harmful way but more like bruises from fights. He only made a mental note to ask and continued. 

If they were going to hang out for a week or so then they might as well enjoy Paris to it's fullest. In the time she slept Dimitri finished some work and made some plans to show rose around, after all, she did say she lived in a cage if he could give her some good moments then why not? 

-*-*-*- 

rose woke to much confusion about what was going on, someone was calling her name and she wasn't in her bad. not waking in her own bed wasn't that strange to rose but being woken up, yes. her hands weren't tied up so she didn't kick whoever was softly saying her name. 

"morning sleeping beauty" she heard as Dimitri came into view and all her actions came into her mind. She felt a blush from embarrassment rise up her neck, she wasn't used to being in uncomfortable situations so she simply stared, quite dumbly in her opinion. 

"we'll be landing in a bit," he spoke up again handing her some water. "look... um, the last day has been not the best, how about we forget about it?" he put is pinky forward " let's just have a good time in Paris? trues?" 
rose couldn't help laughing as she intertwined her pinky with Dimitri's. 

"the great business master Dimitri Belikov does pinky promises?" 

"yes, of course, I do! it's the best form of commitment you know?" he said, raising his chin high and giving the look a four-year-old gives when arguing a point, it was oddly charming. 

"there's no way-" before she could finish Dimitri cut in again "look at the facts, it's something everyone learns about as a kid and even though there's no actual consequence because since we were children we have had it put into our minds and the way we viewed it as written in stone it subconsciously makes one follow it!" by the end of it rose was laughing very loudly but never one to back away from an argument she responded. 

"yes, but you're assuming most kids know it. you're assuming the person you're using it with used pinky promises as a kid! it's more of a theory isn't it?" 

"fine, next time it happens, I'll show you!" 

"fine!" 

"fine!" 

 And with that conversation both of them fell into a sense of much ease. The plane landed shortly after and the week officially started. 

-*-*-*- 

dizzy and tired they walked into the hotel with mild headaches and much laughter from their strange conversations. They both knew they were being strange because of their tiredness but they couldn't do much about it so they just went with. 

However, they sobered up quickly when the receptionist at the deck of the hotel said "yes, well we're giving a joined bedroom for the night sir because of the last minute addition of ma'dam but your personal rooms should be ready by tomorrow, we are very sorry for the inconvenience" while she handed them one key.
