This is a going to be a songfic one-shot probably... unless I get enough reviews telling me to continue the story. This is basically about how Rose feels about where her life is going and what she is going to do blah blah blah. Well, I should let you guys read blah blah blah. And please R&R, it really helps! Also, just so everyone knows, I am all for DxR!

Love,

Rose


Adrian was being an ass, or at least a bigger one than usual. His flirtatious style was etched up a few tonight. Yeah, we are sort of going out but I still deserved respect, and I didn't care if it was the damn Farwell dance, he should've still acted civilized.

"Come on Rose," Adrian said while touching my thigh, "show me your many dance moves."

"I would, but I don't want you to get hurt, you pig," I gave him a death glare but he ignored it like usual. I just rolled my eyes and continued to sway to the music. "Adrian," I said again. He started to get way too inappropriate, this is still a school dance, and even though I didn't care much for this school I cared about my reputation.

"Please Rose," Adrian's eyes were pleading with a fiery passion, but it was easy for me to ignore. "Fine," he said, and then stormed off. I just stayed on the dance floor huddle in between all of my peers when the screeching sound of a microphone came through the air.

It was Adrian standing up on stage looking down at me, "This is a song for someone special," and like that a melody started to float into the gym. I knew this was going to be big, it was Adrian Ivashkov after all, but what happened next blew me away.

Adrian: "Well, this hurts me more than I can stand to say in just one sitting, you left the room so I could pray!"

I liked Adrian's voice, and it was better than what I would have expected it to be.

Adrian: "So I'll pace the halls to see if I could find a hole in something or maybe places to escape."

Somebody else's voice mixed with Adrian's in those lines, I couldn't put my finger on who, but the voice sounded godly, and the next few lines was that mystery man's.

Mystery Man: "Oh, but everybody knows this is the part of breaking down in anybody's arms. I'm reaching down and hoping this one's ours. God, please let this stay!"

Both: "And then I fell into pieces and she fell into me, saying, 'Play me a song. It's been too long since I've heard you sing.'"

I could tell that Adrian was getting pissed that someone was stealing his song, and about almost everyone was looking for the mystery man. All I did was stand and listen; I even started to think about him. Even though Adrian looked pissed he must've planned the back-up vocals.

Adrian: "You got here just in time to let me know I was worth saving, it's nothing more than for the heart."

Both: "Too proud to breathe but I'm too scared to say the things worth saying. Who knew this trip would be this hard?"

Mystery Man: "As I'm looking to the sky to count the stars I wonder if you see them where you are. I'm down on both my knees and pray tomorrow brings no pain."

Both: "And then I fell into pieces and she fell into me, saying, 'Play me a song. It's been too long since I've heard you sing.' And yeah, we all fall to pieces, but at least you fell to me. But this is a wrong night so tell me goodnight and let it go"

Adrian: "I stayed here and you just pray my head would clear and I'd stay safe."

Mystery Man: "The pieces left, the love had changed just saved everything. Oh, and everybody knows this is the part of breaking down in anybody's arms. I'm reaching down and hoping this one's ours. God, please let this stay!"

Adrian: "And then I fell into pieces and she fell into me, saying, 'Play me a song. It's been too long since I've heard you sing.'"

Both: "And then I fell into pieces and she fell into me, saying, 'Play me a song. It's been too long since I've heard you sing.' And yeah, we all fall to pieces, but at least you fell to me. But this is a wrong night so tell me goodnight and let it go"

And like that the song ended. I swear I had tears in my eyes by the end of it, it was just so beautiful. Adrian was wearing a smile but he looked a little confused. "What's wrong? That was a beautiful song choice, and your voice was wonderful… so what could be wrong?" I asked concerned.

"I don't know who did the back-up on that song and it is really bothering me," He said, his eyes squinting in thought.

"Probably just some kid messing around, or maybe the back-up singer in the band? You were playing the CD right? It could be the last one." He shook his head at all my suggestions.

"No, I had the instrumental version playing so I could show off my awesome voice," He had a smirk on his lips forgetting the whole mystery man thing.

"Oh, so you planned this whole thing did you Mr. Ivashkov?" I was smiling now too, the tears once welled up in my eyes gone now.

"Of course, how could I have gone so long without serenading someone as beautiful as you?" Adrian then bent down and kissed me on the lips, and I let him do it; he earned it. We stopped the kiss after a while a just swayed back in each other's arms for a long time, not talking or anything. We stayed there contempt with ourselves, not needing anything else tonight.

I looked up at Adrian; his eyes were glowing and I gasped. They were so filled with love and compassion they nearly knocked me over. "I love you, Rose," he said, and then bent down to kiss me. His kisses were nothing like what I was used to, but this one was just so… I fell into the kiss perfectly, my lips moving with his, hands tangling in each other's hair, and then I said something I thought I wasn't capable of saying anymore.

"I love you too, Adrian," and with that I gave him a soft kiss on the lips and looked into his eyes. They were like blazing emeralds, and they wanted me, they wanted more than what I give, but maybe I could …

"Rose, don't, I can wait, I would wait forever for you, lets just have tonight to ourselves and not worry about that," I nodded my head and then rested it against his shoulder. I closed my eyes, dreaming, but not of Adrian. I dreamt of a Russian badass, one with chin length dark brown hair, soul-deep brown eyes, and the most angelic face I have ever seen.

I smiled against Adrian's shoulder. He must have felt it because he hugged me tighter. A dark feeling came to me then; I shouldn't be doing this to him. Adrian was a nice guy, a really nice guy. He would wait forever for me, but if he ever came back I would leave Adrian in the dust. I was a horrible person for doing this to Adrian, for doing this to myself. I started to tremble, and I knew I needed to get out of there.

"Excuse me," I muttered to Adrian. He didn't say anything, he just watched as I walked away. He knew I needed to be by myself and I thanked him mentally for that.

Once the freezing night air hit my face tears started to fall. I didn't know what I was doing. How could I be so heartless to betray Dimitri and take Adrian's heart when mine had already been given to someone else? I felt sick, I felt degusted at myself, I felt angry.

I took my anger out on the wall, which didn't turn out to be so good. I clenched my hand and almost screamed, but I knew people would come running the minute I did. Rose, you are strong, you can take care of yourself, I thought. I knew that was true, but still, how could I hurt so many people? Not only was I hurting Adrian and myself, but also Lissa.

Lissa has been worried ever since I had killed Dimitri. I had taken it hard, when I first came back to the Academy I barely even spoke, I didn't want to; I didn't need to. Lissa had been there for me, and I was grateful for that, but it was just so hard sometimes. I sighed and walked to my room.

Opening the door I didn't even bother to turn on the light. I slipped out of my dress and into some pajamas. My covers looked so good right then, so I dived in. I sat there thinking, just thinking, of what I was going to do with my life, what was I going to do about Adrian? What was I going to do about Lissa? What was I going to do with myself? Most importantly, what was I going to do about Dimitri?


Okay so I hoped you enjoyed this! R&R and I shall give you cookies!!!!
