Hey everyone! I know I haven't been on in a long time but here is something I have been working on for a while. It has nothing to do with my other story. I want 6-10 reviews before I upload the next chapter.
XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO Cassy.
I stared into the empty room in front of me. My long hair in a messy bun. I took out my stake and started walking into the room. Not knowing what would happen. I heard the floorboard creek behind me. I didn't turn around. I felt it's breath on my neck, whispering my name.
I turned around as slow as possible. And what I saw, oh what I saw, I would never forget.
I woke up screaming.
"Rose! Rose!!" Liss yelled.
She was climbing onto the bed. She brushed my hair away from my forehead.
"I'm fine. It was just a nightmare." It sounded like I was trying to convince myself more then her.
She put her hand on her heart. She looked more scared then I was.
Nothing was new, here at the Academy. Just the same old stuff. Me falling more and more into love with Dimitri Belikov. My mentor. Him saying, "No, Roza. It can't happen."
I wished that he would just give into his feelings and admit that he loved me.
I said no more to Liss. I got up and took a shower.
The hot water poured down onto my back.
It was almost three weeks until Christmas. Oh yay! I never really got into Christmas, but that year I was actually excited. I had no idea why.
I was walking down to the gym when I heard it. Christmas music. There was speakers in the hallways, playing Christmas music. I smiled and kept on walking.
"Roza." I heard from behind me.
I turned around and saw the wonderful Dimitri Belikov standing in front of me.
"Hi, comrade!" I said, smiling.
"How many times do I have to tell you?" He said, shaking his head and laughing a little. "Stop calling me that."
"Fine, comrade. Whatever you say." I laughed.
He explained to me that we weren't going to be training in the gym today. He had spoken to Kirova and he was taking me Christmas shopping!
We got into the car, and drove away.
"Thank you, Dimitri." I said.
"No problem, Roza." He smiled.
He looked like he was actually in a good mood today. It was just us two in the car.
"Well, you're in a good mood today!"
"I am, actually." He said, smiling still.
"And why is that, Guardian Belikov?" I laughed at my own sence of humor.
"My family is coming down to visit. They want to meet you too, Roza. We aren't just going Christmas shopping today, we are going to the airport.
Wow. Meeting Dimitri's family... I didn't know what to say.
"But..." I started, not finishing.
"I know what you're thinking, Roza. You thought that I thought it was wrong for me to have feelings for you. But it's Christmas, Roza, I want to at least see you happy for Christmas."
"Oh..."
We finished Christmas shopping sooner than I thought. I had gotten him something too. It was the newest book in his cowboy book series.
I had gotten Liss her favorite bottel of purfume.
We were driving to the airport before I knew it.
When we got to the airport, Dimitri put his arm around me and whispered, "It's not very safe here, Roza, lots of Strigoi in public. It's very crowded."
He never took his arm off of me like I thought he would.
I saw this group of people standing there, in front of us, and Dimitri pointed to them.
We walked up to them and Dimitri said, "Roza, this is my family."
