Piotr
It was the middle of the night, and she had almost been completely counting on Piotr already being asleep. It turned out that he definitely wasn't asleep, though. And he'd replied. And she had freaked out just the slightest bit before pulling herself together and throwing on some clothes that covered her a little bit better and heading down to the common area. She peeked around into the laundry room to make sure that there wasn't anyone else there. No matter how the conversation went, she really didn't want other people there to hear it happen.

Satisfied that there wasn't anyone else around, she headed into the kitchen and grabbed a bottle of water from the fridge, unscrewing the cap as she headed back out to lift herself up and perch on the top of the couch, staring at but not really paying attention to the TV that, for some reason, was still playing some shitty music channel.

They definitely sucked, but at least they both sucked. That made it better than just one of them sucking. When he said yes, she smiled, nodding as he spoke.

"Yeah. I would." She took a deep breath. There were about ten million insecurities and potential problems that she really didn't need to add as any kind of caveat to the statement, even though she really wanted to. He knew her well enough to know at least some of them, and she was sure that he was at least a little bit nervous about it all, if not quite as nervous as she was. Tipping her head up to look at him, she smiled, pushing all of those thoughts aside. "Thanks for being an insomniac."

All right, he should probably stop smiling now. Piotr knew there were a bunch of ways this could go wrong, and he knew both of them were still pretty insecure about it - likely her even more than him - but he just. Didn't want to think about that right then. He'd spent way too much time since this started worrying about what might happen, for now, he just wanted to be happy that she felt the same way about him as he did about her.

"Thank you for being the one to actually bring it up," he told her, moving closer so he could absently brush his fingertips through her hair.

"I almost didn't," she admitted. "If you hadn't been up tonight, I probably would have tried to put it off longer."

It wasn't a good plan, but it had pretty much been the plan. She smiled as his hand brushed through her hair. He was her boyfriend. Anna couldn't tell if the feeling in her stomach was relief or trepidation or something else completely, but she was going to ignore it completely for as long as she could. Probably until Ali found out and started making her think about things again, like she had before. She moved, tugging a glove off to brush her thumb across his jawline.
