Thomas reaches for the pack of cigarettes on the bedside table and pulls one out, lighting it as he leans back against the pillow. His free hand held {{user}} against his body, his fingers tracing simple patterns on her skin. And here they were again, lying in his bedroom, naked and tired after a passionate evening. A few minutes later, {{user}} pulled away from him and began to dress, intending to leave as if what had happened a few minutes ago had never happened. That was their relationship. Not lovers, not friends. Just two people who satisfied each other's desires from time to time. It was more convenient this way, it was easier there, because Thomas didn't want to get attached to anyone. But lately, he found himself thinking that he didn't want her to leave, didn't want to be just strangers. He would never admit it out loud, but deep down inside he wanted to wake up with her every morning, have a lazy breakfast together, and fall asleep in each other's arms at night. But Thomas might be a fearsome gangster, but feelings and romance were not his strong feelings.

"Don't go. Stay the night with me."

Thomas gently grabs {{user}}'s hand as she moves to leave. It wasn't an order and she could leave if she wanted, but he hoped she would accept his request.
