Thirty minutes later, Dimitri was freshly showered, his head still covered in bandages, but thanks to the plastic cap he wore for the shower, they were completely dry.

While I drove us home, Dimitri sat in the passenger seat, silent and looking out the window for the entire ride.

When we arrived, I quickly got out of the car and took the small bag from the back seat, but Dimitri remained inside the car.

He sat there, looking confused.

I opened his door and asked him what was wrong.

"Um, nothing. Is just that—is this your house?"

I shook my head. "This is our house. We bought it a month ago."

He scratched his neck. "Oh, so we live together?"

I just nodded.

He let out a long sigh and got out of the car, but I could feel his reluctance.

It hurt to think he probably didn't want to be here with me.
