"Alexi you aren't perhaps nervous are you?"
He lets out a loud chortle that sounds forced and glances at me with a smirk.
"Me? Nervous? Why would I be nervous? I've dealt with the paparazzi hundreds of times. I know what I'm doing Astéri."
"Oh, I was talking about my mother. I mean think about it. This is your first time coming into my home and meeting my mother and you didn't even bring her flowers. My mother is very big on manners when it comes to men courting her daughters. You might already be behind before you even started. Oh wait, we got photographed having a fun time in Las Vegas last night. I guess you're already behind!"
As I cackle in delight at my deduction he joins in. It doesn't take long for me to realize he's not laughing with me but at me.
"Find something funny?"
