Chapter 1

As I lay in bed, listening to my Ipod, I think about my life. I think about what happened with Mason and Dimitri I know that I let them down. I have a feeling that that is why Dimitri hasn't spoken or seen me since the night he found me at the house in Spokane. I don't know what I am supposed to think or feel anymore. I know that Dimitri and I have a forbidden love and I know that I should stop this while I am ahead. I know that he loves me and that is why he said "no" to Tasha's offer.

I know that I am holding Dimitri back from having a family and a life without so many restrictions and with us as a couple, so many people would look down upon us. I love him enough to let him go and see him happy while my emotions are sitting on the side lines. I know that the right choice for him and me is for him to take Tasha's offer and be happy.

Since we have been back Dimitri has cancelled all of our training sessions until further notice to give me time and space to move on. It is now February and I have a feeling that he is still trying to avoid me since we have been back for nearly a month and a half now.

Since Spokane I have been spending most of my time with Lissa, Christian and Adrian. I like watching Lissa practice magic with Adrian. She is getting really good at teaching Adrian how to heal as well as Adrian teaching Lissa how to dream walk. They practice on Christian most of the time. I won't let them try it on me just yet. One person invading my dreams is enough.

Adrian has changed a lot since he came back to the Academy with us. This past month or so him and I have gotten a lot closer. I think that he is falling in love with me and I am starting to fall for him, since Dimitri isn't around much I am able to see Adrian more clearly. I am also looking at him in a different light since he helped rescue us in Spokane. Christian and I are a lot closer to, we can be civilized but we prefer not to just to bug Lissa and Adrian and Eddie. Eddie has become one of my best friends as well. I love that I am surrounded by friends that now equal my family.

I plan on talking to Dimitri soon whether he likes it or not. I think that we need to both move on. I can see myself being happy with Adrian and him with Tasha. We just needing to realize it ourselves and stop making it harder on each other.

I get off my bed and walk over to my window. While doing so I see Lissa and Christian talking, she looks so happy. I don't know what I would do with out her. They are sitting on a bench just outside the Damphir dorms. As I stand there by the window deep in though looking at Lissa, I hear a light tap on my door. I turn around not sure of who it is, since Lissa and Christian are outside the dorms talking so that only leaves Adrian or Eddie, which I believe that Eddie is training with his buddies from class. So that just leaves Adrian.

I slowly turn around and start to walk to the door, getting butterflies in my stomach just thinking about Adrian standing on the other side of the door. As I open the door I do a double take of who it is and take a quick step back when I register who is standing at my door. As I stand there acting like an idiot he whispers softly, "We need to talk Roza."
