Prolog:
After Lissa became Queen, Dimitri and I lived at the Palace. Since it was THE Palace Dimitri and I lived with all the other Guardians. The Royals thought to stop all these Dhampirs getting together they would separate the women and the men. Like we were back at St. Vlad.s, It was ridiculous.
Dimitri and I were going to meet Lissa and Christian for lunch. It was rare when this happened we were the ones that usually watched them eat. They wanted to tell us something and we wanted to tell them something. Dimitri and I have been sending some time in the human world, we have our own place close by. It was something about living in the Palace and being watched constantly that we didn't like. After sending time apart; Strigoi and going rogue we had liked the feel of have privacy.
Just living here wasn't going good for us. We were there early and looked around the place. Even if it was booked out just for the Queen and Guardians would be outside at all times we looked inside for the people against her. Christian and Lissa had gotten married shortly after Lissa was crowned Queen. It has been about a half a year since then. It has gotten laid back as the Moroi's and few Dhampirs became use to the idea of them ruling our world.
Lissa and Christian finally showed up. Lissa hugged both of us while Christian shook our hands and sat down. We order drinks for now, as everyone wasn't feeling hungry at the moment. When they came I drunk it, half way through the Dr. Pepper I placed it down. The Moroi waitress asked if we wanted anything to start off to eat. We lightly refused.
"So, Rose and Dimitri." We finally told Lissa that just because we are both their Guardians doesn't mean she always have to say 'Guardian Hathaway', 'Guardian Belikov' especially when they asked us to stop calling them King and Queen.
"We invited you here for lunch today because we wanted to tell you something." Lissa has gotten so, what's the word, sophisticated since the crowning.
"And what is that?" I ask I have learned that since I am technically number 2 out of the Guardian relationship. Dimitri is number one. Anything that goes on in the Moroi world we know about it. Any 'war' we are called. We were label the best in the business, therefore all Guardians come to us if anything happens. Rules, regulations, ANYTHING! You know how tiring that is; Dimitri and I want to leave. We want to forget about this place. This is what we want to tell them.
"We're pregnant." My mouth dropped opened. The highest of Royal babies- the one who will keep both their families running. Lissa had the laws changed to where if they were up for crowning they could get crowned even if they had no other blood related family. So it didn't matter, but it was just a shock that this soon they would have a child together. I knew way to well that they loved each other way too much, that it could be controlled while she- they were in office.
"Congratulations." Dimitri said, and nods he head once. Everyone was waiting for my response. I knew her long enough, I knew her and Christian all too well. I don't think they were waiting for my approval, or were they?
"Yeah, I'm so happy for you guys." I smiled and drunk the rest of my Dr. Pepper.
"We wanted to tell you guys first. You're our main Guardians and Friends we thought you should know." Lissa continued.
"Thank you for telling us first. Do you know what sex it is?"
"Not yet. We have been going to a human doctor as we don't want the Royals to know yet." I have no idea how they could be doing that unless they've been using their powers. Rather her powers, slowly her powers have been getting stronger and she has been learning things that she didn't know while in school. They knew about us leaving the Palace to get time together, and have an actual life. I guess they wanted time alone. If when you were the King and Queen and ask for that, you truly do not get that. So I can understand.
"We had something to tell you too. But we do not want to take from your happiness." I said, slightly smiling.
"NO! TELL US!" Lissa going back to her usual happy self.
"Dimitri and I want to leave the Moroi- Dhampir life." Lissa's face fell.
"Oh no. It is not like that. We both felt happiness and freedom. We want that again. To be free from all these laws and what we can do and what we can't do. We want our child to grow up in a HUMAN world."
"But you can't leave me-" It had then clicked in her head. "ARE YOU SERIOUS?" We both nod. We knew it couldn't be another's person child because I've only been with Dimitri. We have no idea how this could've happened but it did. No one could tell that I was pregnant, I was about to give birth in 2 months. We didn't know until a month ago that I was. When I became very ill one morning.
"Let's celebrate!" Lissa said, drinking more. I had none so I pretended. All thought from Dimitri and I wanting to leave the Moroi world were forgotten. Best friends pregnant at the same time, you might say some best friends are ecstatic if that happens, I am not. That just complicate things Dimitri and I had planned.
