Cillian

I am now, love.

Dinara

So, what’s your full name? I think I should know that, since you wanna take me out and all that. What if you’re a serial killer?

Cillian

And how will knowing my full name help exactly?

Dinara

It won’t. But I think I should know the name of the man who may or may not end up killing me.

Cillian

I promise, if I wanted to kill you, I would’ve done it by now. There are so many other, far better things I’d rather do to you.

Dinara

I bet that’s what all serial killers say.

Cillian

I guess you’ll find out soon.

Dinara

I’ll make sure to bring my gun.

Cillian

I don’t think you’re supposed to warn serial killers about weapons you might have.

Dinara

I’m sorry. This is my first encounter with one.

Cillian

That’s okay, baby. We all make mistakes.

Dinara

I don’t make mistakes. I’m perfect.

Damn, I can’t stop grinning like an idiot.

Cillian

You ARE perfect.

She doesn’t say anything for almost a minute.

Damn, did I scare her off?

Too bad. It doesn’t matter either way. I’m gonna get to know everything about her. It already feels like I’ve known her forever.
