While Dimitri and I head to his house, faint merengue music plays in the background. As he smoothly weaves through cars amongst the highway, he takes the exit to his house and turns the radio up. Another song comes on and I'm assuming he knows it. It's beautiful, but seems so sad, definitely a different mood from the previous song.

"Bésame. Bésame mucho," he takes my hand and gives it a light kiss. I raise my eyebrows shocked, I didn't know he could sing. He just smiles and keeps singing. His voice is so deep and beautiful, this's really surprising.

A few verses later and I've got the chorus down so I sing along cuddling his arm. "Bésame, bésame mucho. Como si fuera ésta noche la última vez."

Dimitri smiles pecking my lips, "What did you just sing?"

"Kiss me.. kiss me a lot?" He nods for me to continue as we come to the parking deck, the same one from before when one of his men brought me from North Dakota.

"As if tonight were the last time." He nods parking the car getting out to open my door."You speak my language well." He complements guiding me in front of him. "Thank you, I didn't know you could sing." I bite my lip and smile at him.

"Yes, I was once in the choir at church." I turn around and laugh putting a hand over my mouth. Dimitri looks at me confused. "What's funny?"

"You, at church?" He takes my suitcase along with my duffle bag out of the SUV and roll his eyes. "Yes, me at church." He responds as if it's the most obvious thing ever. I turn around and keep walking laughing to myself. The irony of this.

"You know, when you have my children they will most likely go to church with mamá." I nod waiting for him. "I'm fine with that." He kisses my cheek locking the car.

"What do you want for dinner?" Disappointed, I stop walking and frown poking my bottom lip out. "You didn't cook for me already? I thought you loved me?" His eyebrows knit together for a second, then he licks his jaw thinking. "Women do the cooking where I come from, so this is a favor in love."

"Oh don't." I put my hand on my hip. "I can cook I was just joking."

"You are being very naughty today." He scolds referring to my attitude. I give a mischievous smile and shrug. "Maybe I want you to punish me."

"Come on, let's talk." He towers behind me creating a high level of a sinister presence. "Before I take you on my car so my mother will hear you being a good girl for me." My eyes widen and I shy-fully smile turning my head away. "Mm, that's what I thought." He whispers kissing my neck urging me to keep walking.

I clench my thighs and enter the elevator, he presses the top floor giving me an apologetic smile. I furrow my brows silently asking what's wrong but he just rubs my hand dismissing it.

"So, what do you want for dinner?" I'm not going to make him cook a full course meal so I just suggest pizza. "Is pizza okay?" He nods grabbing my hand giving it a kiss. "And this is why I love you." I just hum in response telling him I love him too.

When we get inside my heart slightly races, white and gray. "It's so beautiful." Dimitri rubs my hand letting me gape at the magazine like home before me. It's like I'm inside of a dream standing here.
