He's Dating the Russian Swimmer

"Oh, Ivan!" Dino exclaimed in a voice that was full of emotions before he hugged Ivan firmly. "Ivan, thank you!"

Ivan hugged Dino back before replying, "It's fine, Dino. I didn't mind it that much."

Dino continued to cry on Ivan's shoulder as he let his own tears wash away his feelings.

Moreover, he thought of himself as pathetic for not believing in Ivan's words immediately. On the other hand, Ivan kept on saying comforting words and caressing Dino's back as he watched his lover crying.

"Dino, it's alright. Now that the misunderstanding has been cleared up already, how about we just spend our time together?" Ivan suggested while speaking in a tender deep voice.
