Dimitri Roderick

Yuna pursed her lips with a sigh. She pushed him out of the way gently. She gave him a look. "No, I do want girls following me around, trust me," she narrowed her eyes then looked at all the girls. Yuna shooed them away with her hands as if she was sweeping them away. When they looked at her, if was like they'd seen a ghost, and they all turned on their heels and collectively walked away together.

Anna let her laughs die down to soft giggles as she shook her head watching the girls. “You seem to have yourself a large fan club there don’t you, Hot Stuff?” Smiling she pushed herself off the bench she was sitting on as she tossed her coffee away. “Well, I’m free all morning, so what’s your normal routine, maybe you could show me what it’s like to live in the adventurous life of Dimitri.” 

"What?" He asked in the most innocent tone he could pull off. "That thing right there?" Dimitri looked over the girls who just tried to act as if nothing was happening and they were doing nothing but hanging out. "That's just the way I get my ego up sometimes," he laughed looking back at Anna. "Alright, then. Stick with me and be prepared for all the excitement available in Dimitri-land! Let's go get some breakfast first, shall we? And don't tell me anything about the hour. I know what time it is."

Shira lowered her menu, already knowing what she wanted and frowning when he sat in front of her. “You are already disturbing me by bringing all that noise in here.” She crossed her eyes glaring at the girls behind him, still making stupid girly noises. “Look I don’t care if you sit here or not, but they are really getting on my nerves, so if you don’t get rid of them I will.” She wasn’t normally this cranky, this just hadn’t been her week and she was death serious about what she said, even though seen Dimitri was someone she liked, she wasn’t on the best of moods at the moment.

Dimitri glanced over the girls that had already sat down in a table across the room. He rolled his eyes before getting back his eyes on Shira. "It's not really my fault, isn't it?" He asked sarcastically, raising an eyebrow. "Alright... You asked for it. Getting rid of them right now," Dimitri stood up as if he was going to the girls' table, but instead he walked closer to Shira and kissed her deeply for a few seconds.

Shira sat on her usual table at God mothers to have breakfast, the one of the left corner where she always sat alone, the blonde usually made herself some breakfast at home, though upon the recent events she didn’t feel in the mood for it. She started to see her menu, trying to decide what to order but the incessant giggling and giddy expression of a bunch of girls where distracting her, she didn’t bother to see them, only frowning and doing her best to ignore them, however when they yelled like a bunch of fan girls she finally eyed them with a death glare, as well as the person why they were doing so much noise. “Don’t you have anything better to do than disturb the place with a bunch of stupid bimbos behind you?”

Dimitri laughed at the reaction of the girls and kept walking towards his table with a satisfied expression on his face until he got his own distraction interrupted by a girl sitting in a corner of the place, girl he didn't take long to recognize as Shira. Dimitri rolled his eyes and sat down in front of her. "What? Would you like it better if I'd be disturbing you instead?"

Anna wondered what the giggles were all about as she saw a group of teenage girls standing around, her eyes looked to where they were pointing, and instantly gave out the biggest laugh and eye roll. “Dimitri, what the hell are you doing?” Anna had been a lot happier lately and her laughs couldn’t seem to stop and she observed his weird stance. 

Dimitri laughed at the reaction of the girls following him, who immediately blushed and started walking to the other side. He shrugged pleased with his techniques to scare people away when he noticed Anna was in front of him and talking. He scratched his head awkwardly and chuckled. "Ah... just... morning routine. Having some fun."

Anna smiled a bit as she rolled her eyes. “You’re very childish too. But don’t worry, I’ll try not to take advantage of it to much. I mean, I only find it to be the cutest thing ever when a guy can blush.” Anna tilted her head a bit as she looked over him “Was… why would you say was?” Anna watched him as she saw the trouble flicker in his eyes, the way he tried to drink away something, taking gulp after gulp like drowning things away. She knew she should stop asking about it, but be there for him like she always was. Setting her bottle down on the table, her smaller body moved next to him. Seeing his head down in his palms her hands moved to his shoulder rubbing in small circles. Lowering her lips to his ears she rested against him lightly. “Stop thinking so much… I’m sorry I pushed you.”  She couldn’t help but laugh at his comment rolling her eyes. “Mhm, I don’t doubt that for a second.” Anna nudged him softly as she leaned into him again, still keeping her hands moving on his shoulders to try and relax him. “Honestly? I think it’s really hard. To have gone through what you have, and always having to feel like the hero to someone.. never yourself.” 

Completely taken aback for a couple seconds, Dimitri closed his eyes and tried hard to relax under Anna's hands on his shoulders. "It's... it's fine. You didn't. It's always in my head anyway, I just never talk about it. And-and, well... I know enough about your life. It was my turn to share something," he shrugged, half opening his eyes but not wanting to do it, and he didn't do it until Anna spoke again, surprising him once more. "I can't tell if you mean that or you're trying to make me feel good," he said in a chuckle. "No one's thought about it like that before," Dimitri scoffed. "You even make me sound like a nice honorable man..." he joked, but let it trail off since he half meant it.

Mhmm, a giraffe. Uh, [she shrugs] I dunno. Maybe you do? Do you? I don’t know you but now I know you as giraffe man. [she nods] I’m Rachel.

So... a girl calls me a muse and another girl calls me a giraffe. Am I in a circus or did I randomly get to a zoo? [he chuckles] I'm Dimitri. Not giraffe man.

Anna nodded with a grin. “You’re so easy to make blush, kinda like a girl. But .. not, I don’t know what I’m saying, but yes. I’m happy now thank you.” Rolling her eyes she laughed. “The luckiest, that’s why you always burned yourself to a pile of ashes, all luck.” Anna nodded as she chugged more nodding softly. “Right, well all that matters is that you had their consent, like I said.” Looking away she tapped her finger on the bottle absent mindlessly. “Some girls just want to have the feeling of someone wanting them. They’ll tell themselves it’s for the money , but just having a guys attention for fifteen- twenty minutes, really all they want.” Looking over at him she smiled. “I’m sure you get more then a couple free drinks, Dimitri”

Dimitri frowned and looked at her with a pout. "Hmmm. Don't take advantage of that," he said, sticking his tongue out. "And don't try to prove me wrong. I know how lucky I was... am. How lucky I am," he said, taking another big sip of the bottle, finishing with this half of the bottle so far. For some reason, it seemed as if nothing he was drinking a lot and quite fast, he wasn't even tipsy. He blamed it to the good company and the heavy memories invading his head, taking a lot of that alcohol to drown. "Still, it's not-it's not something I'm proud of. I enjoyed it and it's even worse," he sighed. Dimitri shook his head, dropping his face, resting his forehead on his palm and rubbing his skin as if that would help to put all those faces, names and fake names out of his mind. He scoffed at her remark and looked up at her with some sort of sad look. "Yeah, you're right. Sometimes I get more than that. Often," he sighed and laughed sarcastically. "How hard it is being me, right?"

*grins* Oh, the grass. That makes sense. *smiles sheepishly and nods* Mhmm.. See, the thing is.. There’s this guy I’m seeing, and it may be a little embarrassing or too much information, or something like that.. But I really don’t like tan lines.. So.. I guess I have two favors to ask. One, do you mind if I tan topless? And two.. Could you possibly rub that on my back? *motions to the bottle*

Well, I... [stares at her for a bit more than a couple seconds, then he coughs and tries to act cool] I certainly don't mind either, I just... [takes the bottle] I don't know if this guy you're seeing is going to mind... I can always just.. ehr... go.

You’re really tall! You’re… you’re like a giraffe or some really tall animal. I bet you don’t lose people in busy crowds, cause you can just see over everyone else and find them.

A giraffe? Well... that's a first. [he chuckles] Nah. I'm the one who usually loses the people... [glances down at her] Ah... Do I know you?

Yeah you’re like moosezilla! MOOSEZILLAAAA

Moosezilla? I-I don't even know if I said that thing right. But... really?  A giant lizard? And a moose?

Anna wiggled her eyebrows at him as she nodded tipping the bottle back against her lips. “I’m keeping my fingers crossed, playful Dimitri is always my favorite, and the only time I really get a good laugh.” Scrunching up her noes at hims she let out a small giggle. “Yes, seven, and yeah you were 14.” Rolling her eyes she shrugged his comments off. “If you must know, I think you had the cutest cheeks, and I always wanted to just pinch them. Your hair.. yeah, well that was another story, but I still found it adorable.” Nodding she grinned a bit looking down. “You’ve always had the greatest smile I’ve ever come across. Raise my expectations, oh please, a man is lucky if I touch them, so you should feel lucky.” Nodding Anna chugged down more of the liquid as the thoughts of him with all those girls went through her mind. Surly she was going to need another bottle at this rate. “You lived a little, and it’s not like you didn’t have the girls consent or whatever. I mean.. I don’t blame the girls for throwing themselves at you.. and then..” Anna’s voice stopped as she looked up at him. “If it wasn’t for me huh? Well this is a story I would love to hear, no beating around the bush, tell me.” She smiled softly at him with a nod. “I guess so, but still… you should live a little right?” 

Dimitri chuckled, lowering his gaze, staring at his feet for a second. "Oh, now you're going to make me blush. Tables turned. Happy, now?" He said, looking up at her dearingly. "Oh, girl. I'm the luckiest guy in the place. I know that," he nodded confidently. "Well, yeah. I had their consent to do whatever I wanted with them. And I did with some of them... Most of them," he blushed but tried to ignore it by clearing his throat. "But my father ended up tangling them in a big thing, a huge mess. He didn't even had the money he offered these girls, but he charmed them somehow..." Dimitri scoffed. "Guess I shouldn't be so surprised when I get a couple free drinks at the bar.."

[keeps on smiling and puts her hand down] Don’t worry about it. I’m quite used to being short. Though I’m really sorry I woke you up.

You're not that short. I'm just.. too tall, I guess... [he shrugs, smiling and crossing his arms over his chest] Oh, no.. You didn't. I was just laying in bed. I woke up like... half an hour ago. Just couldn't make myself to wake up. Hence my lack of clothing. Sorry about that.

Can’t see it? Why wouldn’t you be able to see i- Oh! *reaches for the bottle, covered by some grass, but only a few inches from her* *laughs* Whoops.. Looks like it was here all along. Sorry. *looks up at him, smiling* You wouldn’t want to do me a favor, would you?

Yeah... well. The grass... Long. Yeah, you know. [says in a nervous tone, still trying not to stare directly at her laying in the ground] A favor? [he clears his throat] Why wouldn't I? Sure.
