“And yet, you still keep me around. Did you ever think there was a reason for that?” Adaline lifting her hand, resting her elbow on her leg and leant into it, watching the pair bond in front of her, she knew she’d made the right decision.

“I know you can, you’re a big boy.” Her tone held a tone of teasing, but her expression was a serious smile. “I’ve been your friend for years Dom and the entire time all I’ve ever thought is that you needed a dog. And since apparently you weren’t getting yourself one anytime soon, I decided to step in.”

She listened to him with a smile, nodding at the end once the papers had been pushed away. “You’re welcome. Treat him well. He can be your mascot while you’re in the ring.”

“I’m going with--you just won’t leave?” He was teasing, obviously he enjoyed the younger princess’s company, or else he would have found a way to make her leave. Maybe she was right, maybe he did need this.

Dominik was loving on the dog, feeling the happy taps of a tail on his leg. It was almost therapeutic, calming to those nerves that had been pounding against the punching bag. “You are going to be one hell of an independent queen one day Adaline.” He admired her for that.

“I expect you to be the one holding his leash while I’m in there. Gotta have someone to keep you out of trouble.”

At first she hesitated, wanting to see if she had misgauged Dom’s reaction to the small creature, but when he responded the way she had expected him to, she relaxed, taking a seat on the floor across from him. 

“Because it’s another version of me.” She pointed out, her tone teasing, though after a second, she shook her head. “Because you need a dog. You need something loyal and loving and unfaithful in its devotion to you. You need someone who won’t leave your side even at your worst.” Reaching into her bag, Adaline pulled out the adoption papers, she had filled out everything except for the space for the name. 

“That was why I picked a pitbull. Because they’ve got a worse reputation than you do in the ring.”

“Overly needy and a handful to take care of?” Dominik joked, his laugh alerting the little beast who then began licking at Dominik’s face. He scratched the little thing behind his ears, admiring the goofy grin on it’s face. “You got me a dog because--Adaline, I can handle myself you know.” But even he knew, and he thought that maybe it was the reason he had yet to be married off. No one wanted to be around him.

The dog settled in his lap and he took that moment to look over the papers. “I’ll have to think on it. Names are important and he should have one that suits him well.” Dom pushed the papers to the side. “Thank you Adaline, for everything.”

“No.” Adaline smirked at Dom before she suddenly placed the unnamed puppy on the ground, watching as it recognised his scent and ran towards him, tripping over its own feet in the rush. “I got you a dog.”

She walked around Dom into his line of sight behind the punching bag as the small pitbull puppy jumped up on his leg excitedly. “I stole one of your jumpers to give to the breeder so it would recognise your scent.”

Dominik huffed breaths as he slowed, his fists dropping to his sides. “I’m sorry--what?” Had she just said that the dog was for him? “Adds, I really can’t--” Bet unfortunately the stupid little way the dog approached him caused a strange feeling in his chest.

Dom knelt down, his hands a little bruised and still wrapped up as they coddled the little dog. “You’re a sneaky one, Adds.” He mentioned as he moved to sit on the floor, the dog being pulled onto his lap. “Why a dog, out of curiosity?”

[xfdominik]

Even though Adaline often acted aloof and played up the ‘dumb princess’ persona that many people liked to bestow upon her, she was far more intelligent than most people presumed of her and never stepped into any decision lightly. She had also known Dom for many years now and she knew the man inside and out, every inch of who he was, was a familiar map of hers that she could navigate in the dark, the dark being his anger. Many years ago she’d decided that he needed a dog, she knew that it would work well with his temperament and anger management, she’d even had a suspicion that the topic had come up in his therapy sessions, not that she’d ever asked. Adaline had waited patiently for Dom to go ahead and adopt a dog that would suit his personality, but he hadn’t. 

So in light of the stress of the entire Greek situation, she’d decided to take matters into her own hands. Adaline had done as much as she possibly could into whether a pitbull terrier would suit Dominik’s personality, and when she was positive that it was the right dog she picked the puppy up from a well known breeder. 

The animal sat in her arms, a blue bow around its neck as she stepped into the gym, watching as Dom slammed his fists into the bag. Hopefully, the two would get on like a house on fire. 

“Really? Because I think someone wants to see you.” She called out, looking down at the puppy who was staring at Dom, its tail wagging in excitement against her chest. At the end of her sentence, the animal gave an excited bark, its ears perked up in anticipation. 

Adaline’s eyes shifted back to Dom, a knowing smirk pulling at her lips.

Dom continued throwing punches at the bag till his fists burned from the friction against the fabric. Adaline’s voice broke his concentration and as he threw a few more punches in attempt to diffuse his aggressed rage he heard the bark let out. “You got yourself a dog?” He asked, huffing breaths as he turned to look at her. “Or for Freya?”

max didn’t intend to disturb anyone. as a matter of fact, he’d have preferred the privacy for his own workout — but with the overcrowding that currently populated the castle, there was already the assumption that somebody else would be in there. “not exactly the greeting i was expecting, but i can see that you’re busy.” he commented, heading to the other side of the room where the weights were set out. “or are you conscious of the smell?”

Dominik didn’t mind others being around, just so long as they kept a safe distance. He knew what he was capable of and the creaking on the chain only confirmed it for him. A few more punches and Dom stopped, breathing heavily as he turned on his heel. “No,” he gasped a breath, grabbing his water. “Testing to see if the chain holds, whatever they had these things hanging from before--wasn’t working out.”

[xfdominik]

Dominik continued throwing his fists at the punching bag that was chained up and hanging from the ceiling. Each hit recoiled just a bit back into the fist that was wrapped and ready to go at it again. Even as the door opened he didn’t take his focus off the swaying bag, powder littering the floor in a light dusting below it. “Don’t,” he huffed. “recommend,” and again. “coming closer.”

rami: currently debating climbing over one of these walls

rami: problem is, will i be too exhausted to sightsee afterwards?

dom: do you have to climb the wall?

dom: that sounds like a lot of work

[xfdominik]

Dude, I love you, bro, I love you. Man, I love you. You're my brother from another, another mother, you are my favourite, I'm not ashamed to admit. Cause I do, dude, I do. Dude, I love you, bro, I love you. Man, I love you. You're my homie, no one knows me like you know me. Like the sun and the moon, all the best things comes in two. What would I do without a friend like you? Happy Valentine's Day - Addy

“Please stop. I get it. I love you too.”

Was he late to the party? Maybe, but did he care? Not really. Andrei tried to delay his trip here as much as he could, but it reached the point where he couldn’t keep putting it off, so here he was. At least they chose a nice place to send them to, could be a lot worse. Andrei would hate if he got stuck in some place where it was raining or cold all the time. “So tell me, what does this place has to offer when it comes to fun?” He asked to the person standing next to him.

[xfdominik]

It wasn’t the first person he had looked for, but running into his elder brother should have been the worst part of his day either. He was starting to wonder when the other would show face and move to live in the castle with everyone else. Funny how he just couldn’t stand the silence between them. “Absolutely nothing.” Dominik offered, corner of his lips turning up. “You sure took your sweet time showing up. I almost started to miss you.” He teased.

layla laughed along with him and pushed her blonde hair behind her shoulder. she believed it was a compliment and so, she gave him a short nod. she clasped her hands together in front of them and gave him a soft smile. this was definitely awkward but at least they were both trying. “no. i’m okay sitting here.” she reassured before taking a seat on the bench and looking over at him, “if you ever can’t find me, this is probably where i am.” she admitted.

sitting, ok. at least she seemed to be willing to take charge in making decisions. dominik took a seat beside her, his hands resting on the edge of the bench. “i’ll be sure to remember that, though you may want to reconsider with the snow.” dom offered a smile, but his eyes stayed fixated ahead of himself. “aside from gardens, what else interests you?”

[xfdominik]

layla was thankful that the male she’d been set up with was at least attractive. she believed that was a good start. “you too.” she smiled softly. she didn’t really know what to say but she didn’t want things to be awkward. “you look different from the pictures i’ve seen. you know, not bad different but different.” she spoke up and then tucked a piece of hair behind her ear. “did you want to sit here or did you want to get something to eat?”

different. “thanks, I think?” he laughed. he could appear carefree enough, nice, charming. he could try. he needed to get used to the idea of marrying so he’d have to at least try to get along--not that he thought it would be hard with her being as lovely as she was. “we can sit, unless you’re hungry.” no matter where they were it was going to be strange. “i’m flexible, I can go wherever.”

They had been friends for a few years now, long enough that Adaline trusted Dom with most of her secrets, including the secret of her leg, but not long enough that she’d cried many times around him. In fact, she wasn’t certain she’d ever cried in front of him. But that was all cast aside as she turned towards her horse, resting her forehead on his side and crying silently, listening to his words.

“I knew. I knew that this was going to happen. And I did it anyway.” She spoke as if it were her fault. As if falling in love with Freya were her fault, 

Suddenly Adaline turned on her heel, nearly stumbling and falling as she placed too much weight on her fake, non-existent ankle, and moved towards Dom, wrapping her arms around his waist and pressing her face into his chest. She didn’t care that he had been jogging, that his skin was warm and that he smelt of sweat, only that he was her friend and she needed a friend. 

A friend that she wasn’t still desperately in love with.

“His name is Mathaios. He has a daughter. She’s going to be a mother.”

All things she couldn’t give her.

Dominik didn’t know how to deal with these sorts of displays. Two sisters still didn’t prepare him for females and emotions. Well, he knew plenty of emotions, but all ranged in anger. Nothing ranged like this. Instinctively his arms found their way around Adaline, pulling her in as he expelled a breath.

Years of friendship had given him tools to help Adaline, and after all they’d gone through together--this was the last thing he wanted to see.

Crying.

Adaline must have really truly cared for Freya to cause this. “Are you happy for her? Because you don’t have to be. You can be upset.”

[xfdominik]

If I can't have your number, can I have the number of that cute pink haired princess you hang out with? ;)

“Absolutely not.”

[xfdominik]

Best case scenario, where do you see yourself in five years?

“Recovering, in therapy--maybe less visits than I currently do. Hopefully still fighting as an outlet--and I suppose now, married. The prospect of a family isn’t something I thought I would be able to achieve, but I hope it’s somewhere in my future.”

[xfdominik]

I've seem to have lost my number, can I have yours?

“I don’t think it works that way, but nice try.”

[xfdominik]

Can I follow you home? Cause my parents always told me to follow my dreams.

“I believe your parents would much prefer you did not do that, as that would be highly inappropriate and could land you in prison.”
