A/N: A very gracious thank you to my lovely beta AtLoLevad. Without her this would be trash. Title belongs to Niki Minaj. And this story is not true.


How dare we sit quietly, and watch the world pass us by

Dimitri walks across the quad heading toward the novice's dorm rooms, walking up to his dorm room. He crosses the room, sitting down on his bed when Neil turns around from his desk, looking over at his roommate.

"How was it?" he asks, British accent thick on his lips.

"It was a library" he answers.

"Smartass" Neil says, before turning back to his computer typing away, "Saw Camille today."

"And?" Dimitri says, pulling out a notebook from his backpack.

"Thought you'd want to know" he says.

Dimitri rolls his eyes, "A single kiss doesn't mean we're dating" he says.

"It was one hell of a kiss from what I recall" Neil teases.

"You know, I'm not sure how I feel about you watching me kiss girls" he says.

Neil smirks, "Oh believe me you had quite the audience even without me."

Dimitri looks at Neil, "what about you" he says, "I know you were making out with Abby."

"Yeah" he grins, "she was great."

"You're sick" he says, rolling his eyes.

Neil finish writing his paper about an hour later, "Let's go get dinner" he says.

Dimitri gets up following Neil out of their room, walking to the cafeteria across the quad. Neil is quick to notice the pretty girls that walk out in front of them.

"Ladies" he smiles.

Dimitri looks over at Neil, he had to flirt with every girl he saw.

"Neil."

Neil smiles, walking beside Rose Hathaway, wrapping his arm around her waist, leaning over "Hi Princess."

Vasillisa blushes a light pink, "Hi Neil" she says.

Dimitri walks behind them, his eyes wandering down Rose's back, he couldn't help but smile, she was gorgeous.

"Won't you lovely ladies join us for dinner?" Neil says.

Rose smiles, "Don't touch me again Neil" she says, gently pushing his hand off her hip, "you might not get that hand back, and we both know you're gonna need it at the end of the night" she smirks.

"Ouch" he says, as Dimitri and Lissa laugh at the comment.

Rose, Lissa, Dimitri and Neil have dinner together, mostly talking about classes and a little gossip here and there. Dimitri finds it almost impossible to keep his eyes off of Rose, the way her hair bounced, and the way her lips curled into an almost evil smile.

Rose smiles across the table, "Belikov."

"Huh?" he asks pulling himself out of his thoughts

Rose laughs, "Pretty girl trying to talk to you."

This time it's Dimitri who blushes, luckily for him no one else knew what he was thinking, "What did you want to ask me?"

Rose smiles, "walk me to my dorm" she says.

Neil grins, nudging Dimitri's side with his elbow, Dimitri blushes tilting his head down gently scratching behind his ear, "sure Rose."

Rose gets up from the table, pressing her lips to Lissa's ear, whispering quietly to her causing the younger girl to giggle.

Dimitri gets up, walking next to Rose, outside the cafeteria, he's not sure what to say.

Rose walks beside Dimitri, letting her eyes wander over in his direction, "saw you at the party last weekend."

"Oh yeah?" he asks, suddenly feeling embarrassed.

Rose nods, "vodka's a good look on you."

Dimitri smiles, "I grew up with vodka I know how to hold mine."

Rose smiles, "sure had you lose enough to have a little fun."

"Are you saying I'm not fun Hathaway?" he smiles.

Rose smiles, "uptight would be the right word."

"I am not" he says.

"I'm just kidding Dimitri" she says.

Dimitri looks over at Rose, his eyes meeting hers he lets his gaze linger for another moment.

"You want to take a picture for later"

Dimitri isn't sure how to respond to that, "Sorry" is what he says, averting his eyes away from her.

Rose smiles, "Don't be so sensitive" she says, reaching down taking his hand in hers.

Dimitri feels a spark of electricity run through his arm, when Rose touches his hand, he can't help but smile. Rose walks to her dorm, keeping Dimitri's hand in hers, "see you for precalc tomorrow" she says, letting her hand linger in his for a moment, before pulling her hand away.

"Yeah" Dimitri says, looking down at Rose, his eyes landing on her lips, they were perfect, he wanted to taste her.

Rose leans forward half an inch, her eyes looking up at Dimitri, "Goodnight" she says, before turning, walking into the building.

Dimitri smiles to himself, smelling Rose's perfume as she walks away. Dimitri walks back to his dorm room, falling down onto his bed, ignoring Neil as he asks him what happened.

"Shut up Neil" he says, pushing himself up onto his elbow, looking at Neil on the other bed.

Neil grins, "What? Hathaway is hot" he says.

Dimitri rolls his eyes, "you notice every girl you run into don't you."

"Of course" he says, "I'm young, they're young and gorgeous, why shouldn't I have a little fun."

Dimitri laughs, "So what, you're going to hook up with every girl in the senior class?"

"If I had it my way, yeah" he says.

Dimitri lays back down on his bed closing his eyes, unable to stop smiling as he thinks of Rose.

When Rose wakes up the next morning she walks down the hall, getting into the shower, letting herself relax as she washes her hair. Rose steps out of the shower, wrapping a towel around her body, as she walks back to her room, pulling off her towel, using it to dry her hair, before sitting down on the bed. Giving herself another moment to wake up, before she gets dressed putting on her button up, and he skirt with her tights. Rose slips on her shoes, before slinging her bag over her shoulder, heading downstairs, running into Serena s she walks downstairs.

"Morning" she says pleasantly.

Rose smiles, "how'd you do on the quiz yesterday?" she asks.

"So bad" she says shaking her head, "I shouldn't have gone to that party last weekend."

Rose smiles, "you're telling me."

"Even worse, I got caught making out with Shane at that party" she says.

Rose laughs, "Yeah, well I caught myself making out with Jesse" she says, "So we both have something to be embarrassed about."

Serena laughs, "you want to do it again this weekend?"

Rose grins, "I could totally go for another party" she says, "I've got a new target for next time."

"Oh yeah?" she laughs.

"Belikov" she grins.

Serena stares at Rose, "Damn."

"Make sure he comes" is all that she says.

Dimitri sits down at his desk in precalc, letting his gaze settle on Rose for a moment, before turning away trying to hide his smile. Jesse sits down next to Dimitri "Hey."

"What's up?" he smiles, looking over at Jesse.

"Up for another party this weekend?" he asks, "girls novice dorms."

Dimitri smiles, "Sounds like fun."

"Bring the rest of your secret stash" he says.

Dimitri smiles, "you got it Zeklos."

By the end of the day Dimitri walks back to his dorm room, unable to tear himself out of his thoughts. There were rumors going around campus, he can't help but wonder about them.

"Is it true?" Neil asks as soon as Dimitri walks through the door.

"Is what true?" he asks.

"You and Hathaway" he says.

Dimitri looks over at Neil, shutting the door behind him, "that we hooked up?"

Neil stares over at Dimitri waiting for an answer.

"No, it's not true" he says, setting his backpack down beside his bed, "Where did you hear it?"

"Szelsky" he answers.

"Where would Danielle hear something like that?"

"She said Ozera told her" he says.

Dimitri rolls his eyes, "I don't know how that got started" he says.

"Well the two of you did leave dinner together last night" he says, "alone."

Dimitri laughs, "Is that all it takes to start a rumor, walking a girl back to her dorm?"

"When it's Hathaway" he says.

Dimitri frowns at that, he didn't like the implication that Rose was a slut, "I'd say you have more notches in your belt."

Neil smiles, "Damn proud of them."

"Stop spreading rumors Neil" is all that he says.

Dimitri's phone vibrates underneath his pillow just after one in the morning. He reads his text message, looking curiously at his phone, before turning over in his bed, Neil was asleep; he pulls on his hoodie, before getting up, slipping out of his room, quietly shutting the door. Dimitri looks down the hallway, making sure there were no guardians to catch him, as he slips down the fire stairs.

When Dimitri reaches the bottom he looks over his shoulder as he sneaks out the back door of the building. Dimitri puts his hand up over his forehead, shielding his eyes from the sunlight, as he sneaks down to the girls' novice dorms.

Rose opens the back door of her dorm building, looking outside keeping the door open for another minute, as Dimitri sneaks inside.

"You rang?" she smirks, crossing her arms over her chest.

"Actually, you called me" he says.

"Technicalities" she says rolling her eyes.

"Why did you want to see me?" he asks curiously, noticing that she was still in her pajamas, though she was wearing her robe, her legs were bare, he couldn't help but stare.

Rose smiles, looking over at Dimitri placing her hands on her hips, "Thought you might want to see me" she says.

Dimitri watches as her robe slips open, letting himself look at her pink nightgown. Rose pulls her robe closed, crossing her arms over her chest again, "See something you like Belikov?"

Dimitri looks up at Rose, a smile playing on his lips, "you tease" he says, letting his eyes meet hers.

Rose smiles, "Why did you tell people we hooked up?"

Dimitri's eyes go wide, "I-I didn't" he stammers.

Rose smiles, "you didn't tell someone that we made out?"

Dimitri shakes his head.

"That I let you cop a feel" she says, stepping closer to the other teen.

Dimitri's jaw drops "I-I never s-said that" he said quickly.

"But you did say we made out" she smirks.

"No!"

Rose covers her mouth with her hand, trying to cover up her laugh, "Relax Dimitri" she giggles.

"You would find this funny Rosemarie" he rolls his eyes.

Rose can't help the laugh that escapes her mouth.

"You're going to get us in trouble" he whispers

"Relax, Celeste isn't here right now" she says, "we've got about fifteen minutes, if you want to."

"Want to what?" he asks.

Rose rolls her eyes, leaning forward, kissing Dimitri on the lips. Dimitri can say that he didn't expect that, he doesn't react, he stares eyes wide at her.

"C'mon Dimitri, I know you can kiss better than that" she says, "You don't like me?"

Dimitri stares at Rose, a smile starting on his lips, "I was just surprised" he says, "Can I try again?"

Rose smiles, kissing him again, letting her hands rest on his hips; Dimitri let's his hands press against Rose's back, as he kisses her back. His head is spinning, he feels intoxicated by her kiss. Dimitri's hands twist into Rose's hair, as they kiss; Rose presses her body closer against Dimitri's, letting her tongue brush against his.

Rose pulls back, looking up at Dimitri, his lips red and swollen, she couldn't help but think how she wanted them all over her.

"Now we can put those nasty rumors to rest" she smirks.

Dimitri leans down, searching for her lips again, he doesn't think he's ever wanted anything more than he wants her right now.

Rose smiles, turning her head to the side, "slow down" she says.

"You're so gorgeous" he says smiling down at her, "I want you."

Rose nods, "I know" she smiles.

"Goodnight Dimitri" she says, pressing a gentle kiss to his lips, before walking up the stairs back to her room.

Saturday night Rose sits on Lissa's vanity putting on her make-up, while Lissa tries on dresses for the party.

"I heard something" she says, applying some powder foundation, "last week."

"What did you hear?" she asks, trying on another dress.

"That I was caught hooking up with Dimitri Belikov" she says, putting on eye shadow, "that I let him feel me up."

Lissa turns around eyes wide, "What?"

"It's not true" she says.

"Of course it's not" she says, "who started that?"

"I heard it came from Christian."

Lissa stares at Rose, "you can't be serious."

"Just what I heard" she says, putting on mascara, "I don't care" she says.

"I care" she says, "That's my boyfriend."

Rose shrugs, "It's just a rumor" she says, "I'm not mad" she says, "actually gave me a chance to make my move on him."

"You did what?"

Rose smiles, "we made out" she says, "I plan on getting more tonight."

"Why would you do that?" she asks.

"He's hot" she says, "and I like him."

Lissa looks at Rose, "you like a lot of guys."

"Not a lot" she smiles, a blush creeping over her cheeks, "but I do like him."

"Like him?"

Rose smiles, "I could like him for more than a night."

Lissa laughs, "That Russian accent got you falling for him?"

"Now, now Liss, let's not get ahead of ourselves" she says, "I just said I liked him."

"You like a new guy every week Rose" she says.

"I'm not that much of a slut, no matter what you hear Liss" she says.

Lissa looks at Rose, "I don't think you're a slut Rose" she says, "I just know what kind of fun you like to have."

Rose smiles, "I'm only seventeen once" she says, "I only have one more year before I have to grow up, and be an adult, I'm going to make the most of it."

Lissa smiles, "I love you Rose" she says.

"Wear the red dress" she says.

Rose stands by the wall, talking to Abby, as she takes a drink from her cup, admiring her flower barrette in her hair.

Dimitri sits down on the couch, drinking his vodka tuning out Camille as she talks to him. He can't help but notice her legs, bare they looked silky smooth, he wanted to touch them. He doesn't think she'd mind, so he does he lets his fingertips brush against her thigh, and they are as soft as he imagined. Camille smiles, moving closer to Dimitri on the sofa, tossing her hair over her shoulder, taking a drink from her cup.

Rose looks past Abby watching Christian in the corner with Lissa. She knows Lissa wants to socialize, but Christian isn't the party type, she can however appreciate his effort for her. If she was right, Liss was going to take him back to her room for a little privacy while everyone was still preoccupied.

Neil sits down in a chair, his arm around Serena as she sits in his lap, a drunken giggle falling off her lips. As she flirts with the other student, she leans down, giving him a small kiss, when Neil asks for one. Neil lets his hands wander up her back, letting his eyes land on her breasts.

Dimitri finishes his drink, when Camille leans over, kissing his lips. Dimitri lets his fingers wander over her thigh, as she kisses him. Dimitri let's his tongue slide across hers, letting the younger girl direct his hand under her skirt. Dimitri finger's at the thin cotton of her underwear. After another ten seconds of kissing Dimitri remembers where he is, he immediately pulls his hand back, pulling back from Camille. He doesn't know what to say.

"I'm sorry" he says.

"I wanted you to" she says, "don't you want to?"

Dimitri looks at Camille, sure he wanted to he was eighteen, if he could get a little something he sure as hell wouldn't say no.

"Sure" he nods, "I just-just need to go to the bathroom." He says, getting up from the couch. Dimitri walks down the hall, letting his hands run through his hair. Dimitri is so distracted, he doesn't even notice when Rose comes up behind him.

"Hey" she says, snapping him out of his thoughts.

"Hey" he says turning around looking at her.

"Feeling a little dizzy?" she asks, "maybe a little too much vodka" she says.

Dimitri lets out a chuckle, "probably" he says, even though he's not even tipsy yet.

Rose looks over at Dimitri, letting herself look into his eyes, she's not sure what she saw, but she knows she saw a spark of something, and it's enough to set her off. Rose takes Dimitri's hand, pulling him into the bathroom.

Rose pushes Dimitri back against the door, shoving it closed with his body, her lips are on his, her hands are at his waist, searching for his skin. Dimitri kisses Rose, sucking on her bottom lip, as his hands rub against her ass, holding her hips against his own. Rose pushes her hands under Dimitri's shirt, as she kisses him, arousal rising from within her.

Dimitri lets a low groan escape his lips, as Rose's lips find his neck, nipping and sucking at the sensitive skin, as her fingers fumble with the buttons on his shirt. Dimitri lets his hand move up her sides, rubbing his palm over her left breast. Rose quickly unzips Dimitri's pants, pushing her hand down the front of his pants, palming at his half hard cock. Dimitri's hips thrusting forward, searching for more contact.

Rose presses their lips together again, gently grinding her hips down against Dimitri's leg.

"Wait, stop" he says breathlessly.

"What?" Rose asks, looking up at him.

Dimitri looks down at Rose, desire flashing through his eyes, "we're not gonna…you know. Are we?"

"Fuck" she says, and Dimitri nods, "oh no Belikov, I don't know you like that" she says.

"So, what are your intentions with me Rose?" he grins.

"Well" she says, cupping his testicles in her hand, causing Dimitri to gasp, "a little stress relief."

Dimitri moans softly as Rose gasps his cock, making slow strides with her hand, rubbing the tip of his leaking cock with her thumb.

Rose moves her hand slightly faster, Dimitri's cock was now rock hard in her hand, and his hips were thrusting up against her hand. And he can't help but think, yes, yes he would fuck her right here in this bathroom. Fuck her right against this wall.

"Baby, I'm close" he breathes, thrusting his hips up as Rose moves her hand faster.

"I'm your baby now?" she teases, her warm breath against his skin.

"Fuck" he groans as he comes, in hot spurts over her hand, letting his head fall back against the wall.

Rose looks up at Dimitri, through her eyelashes, a sinister smirk on her lips.

Dimitri looks over at Rose, watching as she wipes her hand on a tissue. Dimitri slips his cock back into his jeans, zipping up his pants, buttoning up his shirt.

Rose walks back over to Dimitri, her heels clicking against the tile, as she crosses the room, "you can repay me for that later" she says.

"Promise?" he asks, moving from in front of the door.

"Promise" she says, walking out of the bathroom, heels clicking back down the hall.

When Dimitri wakes up the next morning, Neil is sneaking Abby out of their dorm room, he doesn't even want to know what happened last night while he was asleep in the same room. He gets up, walking over to the desk, turning on his laptop, when he hears the door click shut.

"I don't want to hear it Neil" he says.

Neil stares at Dimitri for a moment, before shutting his mouth, "I hate you."

Dimitri's lip turns up slightly, as he logs onto the campus server, immediately getting an instant message. It's from Jesse. And he too can't wait to spill all about his conquest from last night.

"Belikov!"

Dimitri turns around, looking at Neil, realizing he was completely spaced out, "What?" he asks.

"Where are you?" he asks, "You've been ignoring me for five minutes.

Dimitri laughs, "Oh no Neil, five minutes someone isn't paying attention to you, such a tragedy."

Neil rolls his eyes, "Guess who I talked to last night."

"I saw you with several girls Neil" he says, "This game isn't going to be easy."

Neil smiles, "Talked to your girlfriend" he says.

Dimitri sighs, "I already told you, Camille isn't my girlfriend" he says.

"I'm talking about Hathaway" he says.

Dimitri's eyes shot open, "What are you talking about?" he asks, "She's not my girlfriend."

"She asked me about you" he says.

"You're such a dick Neil" he says, he can just imagine Rose draped over Neil's lap, while he's got his hand on her ass, and the thought makes him want to vomit.

"What?" he smiles, "I didn't try anything with her."

"Such a dick" he says, turning away from him.

"Dude" he says, "she likes you."

"How would you know" he says, "She wouldn't even give you the time of day."

Neil looks at Dimitri, "I told you" he says, "she talked to me last night at the party, after you left with Camille."

After Dimitri left the party with Camille, going back to her dorm room, in the next building, she let him take her top off as they kissed. Dimitri refused to go any further than that with her, before he went back to his own room, around one in the morning.

"What are you saying Neil?" he asks, pulling himself back out of his thoughts.

"You should go out with her" he says, "or at least hook up with her once" he shrugs.

Dimitri sighs, "I don't need your advice" he says, "You're just a player."

"You get around too Belikov" he says.

"I do not" he says defending himself.

"I'd say two girls at once, is certainly getting around."

"Neil" he warns.

"Just because you're a virgin doesn't mean you're not a slut."

Rose walks sits down at a table in the library next to Jesse, Christian, and Lissa working on some homework for the week. Christian mostly keeps his head down on the table, still feeling hungover from the night before. Jesse finishes his homework, getting up from the table, "let's go have dinner" he says to Rose.

Rose looks up at Jesse for a moment, before nodding closing up her book getting up from the table.

Jesse takes hold of Rose's hand, as she slips her bag over her shoulder. Rose smiles, looking over her shoulder at Lissa, before walking out of the library with Jesse.

"What are you doing Jesse?" she asks.

"Having dinner with a beautiful girl" he says.

Rose smiles, "You're holding my hand" she points out.

"You act like it's the first time, I've touched you" he says, "You know we've been more intimate than that."

Rose rolls her eyes, "Shut up Jesse" she says.

Jesse sits down next to Rose at dinner, letting his eyes wander over her.

"Stop staring at my boobs Jesse" she says, starting to wonder why she agreed to this.

"I wasn't, but they are nice" he grins.

"Dick" she says, rolling her eyes, "Start behaving, or I'm leaving."

"Have a little fun Rose" he says.

"Oh, I'm plenty of fun" she says, letting her mind wander back to last night.

"Don't I know" he says.

Rose gets up from the table, smacking Jesse on the back of his head, planning on leaving.

"Ow" he says, "Rose, I'm just kidding" he says, "please?'

Rose looks at Jesse, before sitting back down, "You're on strike three" she warns.

"What happens on strike four?" he asks, "Are you gonna spank me?"

Rose can't help the laugh that escapes her lips, she smiles leaning over, pressing a gentle kiss to his lips, "Behave Jesse."

Dimitri smiles, when he gets paired up with Rose for their combat exercise, he's so excited he nearly misses her first strike, stumbling backwards, regaining his balance to fight back. Rose is on fire this morning, as if she'd had a double espresso. She fights with purpose, intending to take her opponent down.

Dimitri stares up at Rose, as she'd pinned him to the mat for a third time, he can't deny she is gorgeous, and sexy, and he wants her. He can't help but stare as she gets up, walking off to the locker room, her ponytail, bouncing behind her. Dimitri jumps up, following behind Rose.

"Stalking me now Dimitri?" Rose smiles, glancing over her shoulder at him.

Dimitri reaches out, grabbing Rose's wrist, pulling her back toward him, not caring if anyone was watching them in this moment. Rose stands flush against Dimitri's body, staring up into his eyes.

"Kiss me" he whispers looking down at Rose.

"And if I don't?" she asks.

"Kiss me" he says again, not taking his eyes off of her.

Rose looks at him for another moment, before leaning up, pressing a gentle kiss to his lips.

"Like you mean it" he says.

"Dimitri" she says, suddenly feeling self-conscious, glancing over her shoulder.

Dimitri drops her hand letting her go, "You're driving me crazy" he whispers against her ear, "you do this on purpose."

Rose stares up at Dimitri, for once in her life she has no idea how to act around a guy, "I can't do this" she says quietly, before turning to walk away.

Dimitri watches after Rose, watching her walk into the locker room, pulling her ponytail down. Rose sits down on the bench in the locker room, running her fingers through her hair, she's not sure what just happened out there with Dimitri, but it has her on edge. Her entire life she's never been at a loss for words with a guy, especially a guy she's flirted with, and hooked up with before.

Rose walks outside of the locker room, dressed in her skirt and button up, twenty minutes later, pulling her hair up into a messy bun, walking down to her Slavic Arts class, hoping she doesn't run into Dimitri again until she's had a chance to figure out what's going on in her head.

Dimitri sits down in the library, writing a paper for his Senior Language Arts class he stays at the library until curfew, before walking back to his dorm. Dimitri stops short in his tracks, when he looks up and sees Rose crossing the quad, most likely back to her own dorm. He walks across the quad, walking up next to Rose.

"Dimitri" she says.

"No witty banter this time?" he asks.

Rose shakes her head, "not tonight" she says.

"I'm sorry Rose" he says, letting his hand brush against hers as they walk.

"Don't be" she says, taking his hand in hers, looking over at him.

"You do things to me" he says, "make me feel things."

"I have that effect on people" she says glancing over at him, "I feel things when I'm with you too" she says.

Dimitri looks over at Rose, "may I kiss you?"

Rose smiles, "so your animalistic instincts have passed" she teases.

"You're intoxicating" he says.

Rose looks over at Dimitri, for a moment, biting her lower lip before she leans over, capturing his lips in hers wrapping her arms around his waist, letting her fingers find their way into his hair.

Dimitri kisses Rose back, his head spinning as his hands find their way to the hem of her skirt. Rose presses herself closer to Dimitri as she kisses him; Dimitri's hands slipping underneath her skirt.

"Dimitri Belikov! Rosemarie Hathaway!" Rose quickly pulls away from Dimitri, Staring up at Alberta.

"Guardian Petrov" she says, brushing her skirt down, averting her eyes from Dimitri.

"What do you two think you're doing?" She demands.

"We were just walking back to our dorms" Dimitri says.

"That better be all I saw, considering it is past curfew" she says, "get to your dorms immediately."

Dimitri and Rose share a single glance, before parting ways, going off to their separate dorms, Rose doesn't think it's possible to be any redder in the face than she was at that moment. She had no idea what the hell was going on with her head today, but it was too much for her to handle.

Rose sits down on the bed burring her head in her hands, she has no idea what's going on in her head, and she sure as hell can't believe she just got caught making out with Dimitri in the quad. She's always been more careful than that. Rose snaps out of her head, when her cell phone chimes from inside her bag. Rose pulls her phone from inside her bag, checking her messages, surprised to see a text from Dimitri.

Dimitri sits down on his bed, staring at his phone, he doesn't know what's gotten into himself, he just can't get her out of his head, and she's making him do things that he can't understand. He's not even sure what he hopes to accomplish by texting her, but he can't seem to stop himself from doing it.

Rose stares at her phone for another minute before setting it down on the bed walking down the hall to take a shower, she needed to clear her head. Rose wraps up in her robe after her shower, walking back to her room, laying down on the bed closing her eyes for just a moment.

Rose's alarm wakes her up the next morning, jolting her awake, she can't even remember falling asleep last night. She reaches over, turning off her alarm, sitting up in bed rubbing her eyes. Rose gets up, getting dressed for school, standing in front of the mirror brushing her hair out, applying a smudge of lip gloss, before grabbing her bag, heading down for breakfast.

"Hathaway" Rose turns around, sly smile crossing her lips.

"Zeklos" she smirks.

"Looking good" he smirks, walking up next to her placing his hand on her hip, pressing a gentle kiss to her hair.

"Stop that" she says, pulling away from Jesse.

"Come on" he smiles, "Just saying good morning."

Rose rolls her eyes.

"Let's have breakfast together" he says.

"Don't touch me" she warns.

Jesse smiles, slipping his fingers in between hers.

"You're touching me" she says, walking beside him.

Jesse smiles, "I'll take my chances" he says, walking with her to breakfast.

Rose sits down across the table from Jesse, picking at a piece of toast and an orange.

"Heard you got caught after curfew last night" he says.

Rose looks up at Jesse, wondering how the hell he could have heard something like that, as far as she knew they were completely alone, aside from Alberta when that happened.

"I don't know what you think you heard" she says, "but maybe you should mind your own business."

Jesse smirks, "meet me tonight."

"No way" she says, drinking her orange juice.

"I'll make it worth your while" he says, touching Rose's knee under the table.

Rose kicks Jesse's shin from under the table, causing him to cry out in pain, "keep it in your pants Jesse" she says before getting up from the table.

Dimitri walks into class about five minutes late, he couldn't bring himself to wake up this morning, because he had stayed up half the night unable to sleep. He sits down at his desk, opening up his book, staring down into his book.

Rose falls down onto Lissa's bed after school, spilling everything that happened over the last two days, Rose wasn't used to having boy problems. Boys are what she knew best, and now her head is nothing but a haze, and it's causing her to screw up everything, and she was not about to have that.

"So what are you going to do?" Lissa asks, sitting down on the bed, beside Rose.

"There's only one thing I can do" she says.

"What are you talking about Rose?" she asks.

"I'm going to stop seeing both of them" she says.

"Why would you do that?" Lissa asks.

"Well Jesse is, a douche" she says, "hot, but a total dick."

Lissa laughs at that, "hot."

Rose smiles, "So hot" she says "But Dimitri" she says, shaking her head.

Lissa looks at Rose waiting for her to elaborate.

"I've never wanted anything more" she says, "I've never felt this before."

Lissa looks at Rose, "Why is that so bad?" she asks.

"I don't know how to stop myself" she says, "from falling for him."
