Mornings are the worst time. I wake up and pull myself out of bed, get myself dressed and ready before I remember that he's not here. I guess that's why it was so much worse to be given extra hours to think about it. The slush on sidewalk soaked into the cloth of my slippers, but I didn't care. It hurt a lot to think about what had happened a few weeks before. It felt like losing a part of myself. But at least now I know he is happy, and made the right choice for him.
"Rose!" Oh Crap! "Just, what are you doing out of bed at this time?"
I turned to see my current trainer and therefore, most recent pain-in-the-you-don't-want-me-to-finish, walking towards me.
"Yo...um...Yuri."
"You haven't answered my question."
"I was -um- testing security. It sucks." At this point, Dimitri would have smiled, well not a full one but still. He would have let it slide and however he would have responded it would have been more positive than Yuri's reaction.
"Rose, this is not acceptable. Follow me." He started going on about how I should appreciate the protection the academy offers me and how I'm already behind as it is (I need to rest in order to do well) and things like this are what get me a bad reputation and I should just look at Vasilisa and how respectable and well behaved she is (yeah, right) and how i need to stop – oh greetings Guardian Petrov.
I looked up to see Alberta with her short cut hair and a grim expression on her face.
Oh brilliant.
