Hey everyone! Second Fanfic, whoo! I promise I'll update on You Can't Wait Forever! So this is basically a bunch of oneshots or maybe a storyline of the gang going shopping at our favorite stores. So read and review! :)
Shopping Spree
Rose POV
I was sitting on the couch panting my toenails when Lissa started screaming in my mind. She had been blocking me out for most of the day and so the slip made me have a spaz attack I painted all the way across my foot and threw the bottle up in the air. The red paint splattered over the floor, anger burned inside me. I pulled out my phone and hit the number 2, Lissa answered almost immediately.
" WHAT THE HELL, LISS?" I screamed into the microphone. I heard Lissa giggle on the other line.
"Sorry Rose. It was supposed to be a surprise, but I couldn't help myself," she explained.
"Liss, what is it?" I asked cautiously.
"WE GET TO GO SHOPPING!" she yelled even louder than me. Seriously I had to pull the phone away from my ear before I lost my hearing. I sighed. Shopping just wasn't fun anymore. Before she had to bring guardians along, sure, but now that she's queen a parade of guardians have to come.
"That's great, Liss. Who else is coming?" I said with forged enthusiasm.
"You don't sound happy about it," what can I say? I'm a terrible actress, "What is it Rose?"
"It's just that it's not the same anymore. A whole parade of guardians have to come. I don't get to let loose with you like before," I sighed. I felt her realization through the bond.
"Well, maybe I can get them to let me go with only a few guardians," doubt was evident in her voice.
"Yeah, okay. Bye Liss," I didn't even give her time to say goodbye before I hung up.
I turned to the puddle of red ink and momentarily considered cleaning it up. Nah, Dimitri can clean it up when he gets home. I decided to do a little research of stores that are owned by Moroi.
A few hours later I found something that could get me somewhere.
The famous warehouse, Costco, was founded by Andrew Badica. After a close call with a Strigoi attack, Andrew decided to ensure safety for all shoppers, Human, Moroi, and Dhampir alike. To ensure such safety, Andrew hired a priest to Christianize all warehouses. He also made sure all workers were trained Guardians. Feeders are provided in every store. Please ask your cashier if you are in need of blood.
A half scream half squeal left my mouth. I heard a distressed cry come from downstairs, footsteps sounded up the stairs. A very wide eyed and panicked Dimitri rushed into the room. When he saw me he let out a sigh of relief and hunched his stiffened shoulders.
"Roza, you scared me. I saw the blood on the floor when I came in then I heard you scream. I thought a Strigoi had broken the wards and come for you," he explained.
"Blood?" I asked, then I remembered the blood on the floor and started to laugh, "Dimitri that wasn't blood, I spilled a bunch of nail polish," I gasped out in between laughs. His arms encircled me.
"I'm just glad your okay," he whispered in my ear, "Whats this?" he asked reading the screen quickly.
"Our next shopping trip with Vasilissa," I told him with a chuckle. She would so kill me for using her full name.
"Why are you researching it?" he asked.
"So we don't have to be paraded by guardians," I replied. He tipped my chin up for a kiss, but ended it when he asked.
"I suppose you were expecting me to clean up the nail polish?" he asked. I gave him an innocent look.
"If I give you a kiss will you do it?" I asked in a sugary sweet voice. He acted like he was leaning in for a kiss, but turned his head at last minute so his mouth was right next to my ear.
"Roza, if you don't do it I won't give you a kiss for a whole week," he threatened.
"Oh really?" I asked in a sarcastic tone. I stood on my tiptoes and started to kiss everywhere but his mouth. I could see his resolve crumble. I started to walk away, he grabbed my hand and pulled me to him. Dimitri's lips crashed to mine. We both pulled away, breath heavy, "You wouldn't even last a minute," I whispered.
"How about we both do it?" Dimitri suggested.
"Mm, I would love to," I told him, he looked down on me with amusement in his eyes.
"Roza, you know- as much as I would love to- that's not what I meant," he chastised. He offered his hand, I took it and let him leave me downstairs.
I went to go get cleaning supplies while he checked out the damage. I came back with a spray bottle of bleach.
"This will work!" I cheered and poured onto the puddle at the same time Dimitri yelled,
"No, Roza! Don't!" We both watched the white carpet turn an unflattering shade of orange.
` "Oh, well!" I cheered again and sat down on the couch. Dimitri soon joined me.
"Roza, you will be the death of me," I giggled.
"That's why I'm here! To destroy my Russian God," I joked. Dimitri rolled his eyes at my glorified nickname for him. Although secretly I knew he loved it. My phone started to play Mason singing Ding Frizor Don. Although it made me sad, it also made me happy to hear his voice. I answered it.
"Hathaway," I barked into the phone.
"Rose, it's me," Lissa's voice sounded from the other end, "I convinced them to only send 6 guardians,"
"Yeah, well I found a way for them to only send no guardians," I yelled with real enthusiasm.
"Rose that doesn't even make sense!" she said in exasperation.
"I found a way to get them to not send any guardians."
"How?"
"We go to Costco!"
"How on Earth does that fix anything?"
"Because it was founded by Andrew Badica who made the whole place holy, and you know what that means!"
"Oh-My-God! Rose that is great! I'll go tell the counsel. We are leaving tomorrow! I'll go invite people and meet me at the airstrip at 12:00 A.M"
"Uh, Liss? Human time, remember?" I reminded her.
"Oh yeah, 12:00 P.M?"
"There you go! Bye Liss, see you tomorrow!" I hit the end button.
2:00 P.M, Airstrip Rose POV
Dimitri and I where walking to the airstrip. Mia, Adrian, Eddie, Christian, Sydney, Jill, and Lissa were there waiting for us.
"Your late Little Dhampir," Adrian called.
"So, are we taking a plane?" Mia asked.
"No, there are cars here two," Lissa told everyone holding up keys. We all piled into one of the cars.
"Let's play Chinese Fire Drill!" Eddie yelled out.
"Okay we'll play it, but let's do something until we actually get to a stop light," I told him.
"Rose! We should play black magic!" I gasped.
"Yes! Okay so this is how it works, Liss is gonna turn around and close her eyes. You guys are going to point to an object and Lissa is going to tell you what it is," Lissa turned around and Adrian pointed to Mia's bracelet.
"Okay, is it my brown hair?" Lissa shook her head, "Jill's green eyes?" she shook her head, "Those pink shoes?" she shook her head again, "My black boots?" another head shake, "Mia's bracelet?" she nodded. Lissa turned back around.
"What the fuck?" Adrian asked.
"How did you guys do that?" Eddie asked.
"Black Magic," I told them. They asked us to do it again, and again, and again. This was how me and Lissa learned it and we hated it! At least until we learned it. Dimitri was the first to figure it out, then Sydney, then Mia, then Eddie, then Jill. Everyone was waiting on Christian and Adrian who still hadn't figured it out. We did it without talking and without looking just to prove their guesses wrong. I think Christian was just about to get it when we came to a stop light. We all got out of the car and ran around it in circles. When it turned green quickly got in.
I was right Christian had figured it out. By the time we got to Costco Adrian still hadn't figured it out.
Lissa remembered something right before we went in.
"Guy's I don't have a Costco card, they won't let me in," she cried out.
"Don't worry Liss me and Eddison here can cause one hell of a distraction," I reassured her. Me and Eddie nodded at each other. We grabbed a cart, Eddie hopped in, "One, two, three!" I charged the cart into the entrance. The lady yelled and started chasing after us. We went through all the isles knocking down items that the lady stopped for to place back up. Pretty soon the entire staff was chasing us. We stopped when we hit a pyramid of cereal and got covered in boxes. Eddie and I were laughing our asses off. Security took us to the head employee's office.
"What did you kids think you were doing?" The guys demanded.
"Helping Queen Vasilissa Dragomir get into the store," I replied with a shrug. The guy took a closer look at us.
"Your Rose Hathaway! Your Eddie Castile! Man, you guys are legends. Go continue shopping, by all means," he told us. He also apologized numerous times. We walked out.
"Rose that was epic!" Eddie yelled.
"Totally!" I agreed with a fist bump. We passed the lady at the front and she glared at us which sent us into hysterics. We found everyone in the electronics isle.
"What happened?" Mia asked.
"An epic chase!" Eddie yelled. We all went to the food section. They were sampling stake. Everyone grabbed one, I went up and grabbed 7 Eddie and Christian followed suit. As Lissa loaded random things into the cart I went over to the cinnamon rolls in the bakery section. I decided to test my ninja skills and threw them towards the direction of the cart, even though it was a good few isles away.
"What the hell?" I heard Adrian screech. I quickly ran in that direction. There stood a very unhappy Adrian leaning over the cart, covered cinnamon rolls. The container was caught on his shoulder. He had a bag of chips in hand. I'm guessing he was putting them in the cart at the exact moment my cinnamon rolls reached it, "Little Dhampir, care to tell me why I'm covered in cinnamon rolls?" I shrugged my shoulders.
"Black magic?" That sent everyone into a fit of giggles. I tuned around and saw the lady glaring at me. She pulled out her walkie-talkie and started grumbling into it. Me and Eddie started laughing.
We kept going and a group of teenage guys started cheeking me out and whistling. I heard Dimitri give a low growl and walk over to me. His arms encircled me and he pulled me into a passionate kiss. All the guys were staring at me, stunned. I gave them my man eater smile and put an extra sway to my walk.
Jill gasped beside me.
"Oh-my-god! Can we get naked?" Everyone stared at her shocked.
"I wouldn't mind seeing Rose naked," Adrian said after a long silence.
"No it's a drink," Jill explained. She went to go get it.
"Hey Little Dhampir your not going to hurt me for that little comment right?" Adrian asked, sounding extremely afraid.
"No need to worry Adrian. I won't touch you," he relaxed visibly. Jill came back with the drink, "Hey, Jill, can I see that? I wanna check it out," she handed it to me. I pretended to check the back then, when he wasn't looking, slammed Adrian it the back of the head with it. He whirled around.
"OUCH!" He yelled. I out on my best innocent face.
"Hey I said I wouldn't touch you, I didn't the bottle did," I explained.
"Okay let's go before Adrian gets anymore injured and or sticky," Lissa yelled exasperated.
We all rushed to the checkout and left with one last glare from that lady.
What you think? Good, bad? What store should I do next? I'll give whoever P. M's me the rule to black magic a sneak peak of the next chapter. :) REVIEW AND SUBSCRIBE!
