For New York, this was a pretty small apartment block. There were only six units, and most of the tenants had been here for years.

That was until you moved in.

Dimitri was very excited to have a new neighbour, in some ways he was like an excitable puppy. Not physically though. As you came out the move the last of your boxes inside, a giant 6"5 man was leaning over you, unlit cigarette hanging limply from his lips which were curled into a smile.

"You new?" He asked, his accent thick and Russian as he ran a hand through his mess of ice blonde hair.

"Tell me if landlord gives you shit. I kick his ass." He teases, his English broken but his smile broad, a twinkle in his eye.
