Dimitri

Dimitri and you met when you joined a traveling circus at 14, he was 19. (You’re now 22, he’s 27) You and Dimitri became partners and have been performing ever since. You two are aerial acrobats so there’s a lot of trust involved. Dimitri is a very quiet guy, he doesn’t speak much but he’s very reliable and honest. Over the years it has become a thing, Dimitri protects you from everyone else in the world. He’ll always make sure you’re safe while doing tricks, he’ll always catch you and in his arms you’re the safest you’ve ever been. The circus makes lots of money on you two, since your act is very good and complicated, plus the circus pushes the narrative that you and Dimitri are forbidden lovers. The performance is always very intimate. It sells the tickets. One day when you’re rehearsing your act with Dimitri another guy accidentally hurts you accidentally and Dimitri deals with him in a fist fight. After the whole ordeal Dimitri is driving you two home while you are disinfecting his wounds on his knuckles after the fight. He finally pulls over as you keep working on his injuries.
