<span style="color: #0000BF">"I don't really think..."</span>Dimitri was able to see the complications in staying the night with Alannah in general, it would only end up worse if he slept in the same bed as her. He would be in just the same amount of trouble in the morning no matter what he did. Even now, just crouched down, he felt like he could fall asleep. He had the thought in his mind that he could tough it out and go back into the ocean, despite the exhaustion. It wouldn't be the first time. In the moment, his judgement faltered while he looked at Alannah. They were both so tired and exhausted. Looking at her, and the spot next to her, it almost felt like so much time hadn't passed. It was like they were still together.<br/><br/>Dimitri kicked his boots off.<span style="color: #0000BF">"Sorry..."</span>He muttered. He never kept his footwear on inside of someone's home; it was just rude. But in the heat of the moment, he hadn't even remembered he was wearing them. He was just too concerned when he got into her apartment to think about it. Dimitri slowly lowered himself onto the spot next to her, looking towards her. There was so many important pieces of the puzzle to get through.<span style="color: #0000BF">"I don't understand... you know 'bout these people?"</span>Dimitri asked. He would never hear her answer though, as the second his eyes close, he lost consciousness.<br/><br/>--------------------<br/><br/>He couldn't be sure exactly what happened, but when Dimitri's eyes crept open the next morning, he was on his side facing his ex-girlfriend. Dimitri had tried to gather his emotions together, but it was too surreal, it felt as though the past two years had been a dream he was just waking up from.<span style="color: #0000BF">"Mornin', darlin'."</span>Dimitri remarked, quietly.
