Neither of them said anything, but the shared sentiment was clear enough. As far as first dates went, this had been a pretty good one.
Epilogue
Ashley never did develop the skills of a criminal mastermind. She did, however, have an excellent mind for numbers. She quickly proved herself to be invaluable to Alexei. The girl was a genius when it came to moving money around. That might have been why Alexei’s father was pleased when he announced his intention of proposing to her.
He made plans to take her out to the restaurant they had first gotten taken out from after arriving in Russia. He tried to make it sound like a casual date night. Maybe he did too good of a job at this. When Ashley showed up for the date, it was with Tiffany and Heather in tow.
They had never gone back to the US. Alexei had made sure they had a place to live and set them up with desk jobs at one of the businesses his father owned. The language barrier had prompted them to bond with Ashley. It was an odd friendship, but Alexei didn’t much mind it… Though he would really rather they weren’t here for his proposal.
Tiffany and Heather never stopped talking amongst themselves the whole time. Even so, Alexei decided to go through with it. When dessert came, he got down on one knee.
Ashley shrieked, a hand flying over her mouth.
“Oh my God,” Tiffany said before Ashley could answer. “This is perfect!”
“Shh,” hissed Heather.
Alexei tried to ignore them, but the seconds ticked past and Ashley still hadn’t answered.
“I know we have a pretty good business relationship. And I know I have a history of keeping relationships casual, but if you’ll just give me a chance-”
Ashley shook her head, causing Alexei’s heart to drop momentarily. “No. I mean- It’s not that… It’s just. Alexei, I’m pregnant. I was going to tell you tonight. The girls came along for moral support, I…”
Alexei got up off of his knee and hugged her. He’d always imagined being horrified by this kind of news. Instead, he couldn’t have been more excited. “So, yes?”
“Da,” said Ashley, rather awkwardly trying Russian on for size. “Of course!”
