Not quite sure what to write this time around.. oh and CV, guess who shall be back quite soon ;)
Sitting cross legged looking over some photos and arranging them, she sat blissfully ignorant to her husbands rants over the dog chewing his socks. Anya was wearing one of Dimitri's button up shirts. She loved how roomy the cloth was to her small self, and when she didn't need to go anywhere for the day she'd just steal one.
Dimitri finally quit yelling at Pooka since number one, the dog just merely stood there unaffected, and two; the phone was ringing. The red head chuckled as he stomped out into the kitchen to answer. The puppy trotted over to her feet and whimpererd. "Well, Pooka you've got to quit eating his socks.. even if they are rather filthy." She said plucking it from the small dogs mouth.
"I heard that!" Her husband had come back into the room. "If you desire to know, that was your Grandmother on the phone. She's inivited us to tea this afternoon, better known as hot water and lemons in your case though." He razzed grabbing his sock from her.
Just as she had smiled it turned to a frown. "Oh, no.. that woman will be there." Anya got up and began to walk twords their bedroom as Dimitri followed after.
"You mean Mrs. Belvedere?"
Mrs. Belvedere was a woman who had lost her husband some years ago, but still went by her married name. She was a part of very high society, almost ranking right with Anya's Grandmother. Anya and Dimitri had the unpleasant pleasure of meeting her at a spring ball they had agreed to show up to. Her face was pinched, her eyes beady and would almost stare as if glairing you down like an animal. The very thought of her gave Anya chills.
"Yes, that woman, is always in my business. I'm surprised she didn't ask me how much money we have. Much less quiz me upon my entire life." Anya threw a liliac dress twords the bed and it landed upon Dimitri. He pushed the matierial off his face with one big puff of air.
"Anya, you've faced things scarier than this ordinary woman. May I remind you of Rasputin?" He pointed out ducking a yellow sundress she had obviously rejected. Finally she came out of the closet in a green dress with small tassles and a bow on her waist in need of tying.
"Here, let me do that." He motioned for her to come to him. He soon tied the ribbon around her waist not too tight. "I'm just saying, maybe she's not like you think. Just try and be the nice person you are to me." He turned her around to face him. "She won't be able to hate you then." He grinned.
She shook her head. "Not that simple. You are a conartist and she's a demon." She playfully kissed him. He kissed back and tried to wrap his hands around her small waist, but Anya was too quick. "Nice try... but no."
Once at the tea/hot water and lemon party, Anya forced herself to put on a good natural smile and be pleasant even if so far the only comments she had recived were mostly about how horrible it was for herself to "lower" to a commoner level. Dimitri didn't mind, he was used to people mocking his state of just being, but he watched Anya's fist curl around the tea cup, probably wishing it was the lady's throat as she went on and on.
By the time they excused themselves, Anya was about ready to kill someone just by how she had sat there and took all of it in without saying so much as one word. As they walked home through the long maze, which now wasn't too frightning since it was day time, she glanced over at Dimitri.
"How did you remain so calm, I mean if she had been a gal on the street talking like that by now I woulda gotten rid of her teeth."
He chuckled. "You are quite the violent princess aren't you? You'd probably make Ivan the terrible quiver." He wrapped a hand around her clenched fist making it release. "Well, I'm just used to people talking badly about me." He simply stated.
"But how can you be so calm?" She desired to know his secret.
"Well, I just thought about the fact that none of the things she was saying were true and the fact that you chose me over a crown and riches." He let out a light sigh as they passed a fountain littered with water lillies floating peacefully.
"Sounds nice, but I just guess I wanted to defend you." She muttered.
He turned to face her. "You allready have done that. I'm not a damsel in distress you know."
She grinned. "Really, because it seems I rescue you alot.." She joked and then they both shared a kiss worthy of a big screen movie scene.
LOL, R and R please..
