"Dickie Greenleaf?"

"Who's that?"

"Tom Ripley! We were at Princeton together."

Tom's eyes fall to the girl beside Dickie Greenleaf, old money heir who was the object of his current obsession, to see her.

From his research, he knew her well. Beautiful and educated as the heiress to a media conglomerate family name and she looked just as lovely as he'd imagined on the boat ride here in the glistening Italian sun. She was a beauty, a silver screen French type with soft skin and doe shaped eyes that stared up at him below the shade of her hand.

{{user}} and Dickie had apparently been together since meeting on the boat on the way to Italy just a year previously and it was no secret how very much he adored her. Useful information for Tom.

"Oh well this is my girlfriend, {{user}}." Dickie said, resting his hand gently on {{user}}'s soft thigh.
