It wasn't even the money issue; he had money saved and he was pretty sure she did too. But it was the fact that it was Florence, Italy. A place of love and romance. And he just hoped that Dia wasn't going to get the wrong idea about them, because well, he just wasn't sure he was ready for that.

Shoving his hands into his jean pockets, he glanced around the courtyard in front of the hotel, waiting on her arrival. Since they had, after all, arranged to meet at the hotel rather than traveling down to Italy together. He just hoped she hadn't been pulling his leg when she presented him with this surprise vacation idea.

Ah Italy. She hadn't been here since she was a little girl! Just walking along the streets and hearing the people utter things she didn't understand brought back such wonderful memories.

Walking into the courtyard she smiled widely when she saw Dominic. It was a good thing he'd agreed to fly over with her on such short notice. Her friends hadn't been very enthused about travelling for the Christmas and she didn't want to spend the holiday alone--that wouldn't have been much of a holiday now would it? Not at all.

"Glad you made it alright!" Her voice was soaked with excitement. "Once you get settled in we have to go sight seeing!" It was a beautiful city so staying inside the entire time was NOT an option...unless he felt ill, but even then he wouldn't be allowed to stay in all the time. Not when there was spaghetti to be had ~~which might have influenced the location of such an elaborate trip but she would never admit that.~~
