QUICK NOTE, PLEASE READ: I'm aware that Dimitri was only 7 years older than Rose and not 15 years like in this story. Keep in mind this is an AU, and during my research I found out that it takes around 5 years before a police officer can take a promotional exam to become a detective. And since you can go to the academy and also to college, I thought Dimitri would go that route. So, it's 4+ years of college, 5 years of experience and since Rose met him as a "seasoned" detective, I thought 15 years was a safe bet. This is not a canon story, so please stop nitpicking at it! Thank you.

I froze, clamping my mouth shut.
After a beat of silence, I found my voice.
"You called me Roza…"
He looked confused, like he had no idea why he did it.
"You've always called me Roza, ever since I met you. You are the only one that calls me that, except for Viktoria and your mom."
"You've met them?"
I nodded, sitting down on the chair next to his bed.
"I met them before you proposed, about a year ago. We went to St. Petersburg for the summer before I started law school."
"You are in law school?"
I nodded. "My mom is a FBI agent in Philly and my dad is a broker in New York. I applied to law school after I graduated with a bachelor in political sciences."
"Wow, you must be very smart."
I smirked. "Sometimes too smart—"
"—for your own good."
I smiled widely when he finished my sentence, and for a moment I could see my Dimitri again, but then to my horror everything went south.
One minute Dimitri was smiling back at me, and the next his eyes rolled to the back of his head and hestarted convulsing on his bed.
