Emily followed Ayden to the two men and to her surprise, one of them was her fiance, Connor. She was all smiles until Connor offered his hand and for a split second her smile faltered. She changed her thinking process. She was safe. Connor wouldn't hurt her. She was still tense as she shookhis outstretched hand. The memories flashed for a moment and then were gone.
"It's wonderful to meet you , Connor. Congratulations on your engagement."
Emily said as they released hands. Her smile was wide and genuine. She was really glad to meet him.
Connorintroduced his friend Giovanni. Giovanni stood to greet her and she hesitated before shaking his hand too.She wished the memories would just go away. Giovanni's accent matched his name, marking him as Italian. She smiled at him as he winked and offered her a seat. He was at least interested in her.
Ayden and Connor were being all lovey dovey, so Emily turned to Giovanni and smiled. "Buon Giorno, signorina. How are you?"
He asked her politely.
"Fine thank you. And you?"
"Well, grazie. What brings you to Moscow?"
Giovanni seemed really nice and despite seeming like he wasn't sure what to say, appeared willing to talk. She found his uncertainty a little adorable though, and the guy wasn't bad looking either. She was looking to meet someone who would help her get comfortable around guys and maybe Giovanni would. She would have tobe upfront that she wasn't interested in something permanent though she wasn't from Moscow.
"I'm taking a little vacation and spending time with Ayden. I needed a break for awhile."
They chatted for a bit about normal things. Giovanni was indeed Italian. They didn't talk about work, which made her happy. She liked her job, but was on vacation. She found herself liking his demeanor. He was calm and seemed kind. She wondered what Ayden was thinking about him.
