Starts story about Dimitri and Rose.

I'm still in my room, Lissa paces back and forth with a saddened glare in her eyes. "You're going to leave me, now, when I need you the most?" She stops and stares at me. It feels as though she is staring straight into my sole, a part of me wishes I could take everything I had just said back, but this was my life, and Dimitri and I wanted this more than anything. "You know what, don't bother."

She storms out of the room. It takes and long while for all her dress to follow. She was the princess now, the princess has all the best and apparently the longest clothes. I groan and fall back on to the bed.

Dimitri and I have officially become a couple. People have acknowledged it, but no one really accepts it. The Moroi stare at us with sneers on their faces. They find our relationship disgusting. We are guardians, we have to protect them. But they think our love for one another will make us forget our duty. How can you save another over the one you love? Most of them speak about it when they think we can't hear. And I don't really know the answer to that question yet. I don't know who I would jump in front of, Dimitri or Lissa. But I know that if it came to it, Dimitri would save me before Christian and that worries me. We needed to get away from prying eyes and figure this entire thing out. I sat up and tried to get in Lissa's head, but I end up with only my own thoughts, and if I'm honest I wish I had hers to distract me from my own. I feel a bit guilty about upsetting Lissa like I have, but then realise I have nothing to be guilty about. I leave my room and head for training. I needed to get my mind off this. It had been 5 months since Lissa was announced queen. And in that time people have come to realise that they hated the idea of Dimitri and I being together. It was wrong, twisted and totally unprofessional. But, you can't help who you fall in love with, and our love was pure, honest and totally perfect. No one would be able to destroy it, not even my best friend. I took my anger out of the fake doll, posing as a threat. It was pretty torn up by the time I was done.

"You know, if you hit that doll one for time, it'll come to life and punch you back." A voice said behind me. I turned and find Christen Ozera leaning against the wall. I still sometimes wonder how Lissa could love him. He is nice, but he can be so cocky. I hate his cockiness; it always makes me feel sleazy and common.

"I don't want to hear you unfunny jokes." I say and punch the doll again, pulling out my stake and slashing it.

"Come now, you should know me better Rose. I don't joke." He walks up and leans against the wall behind the doll. "I came because Lissa is pretty upset, and I know it went down with you two," He paused and licked his tongue over his left fang. "So what's happened?" His eyes pierced mine.

I stared at him; the doll was rocking back and forth so I gripped it and stopped it moving. "Nothing serious, Dimitri and I feel a little smothered here and we just want to get away, just for a little while." I wipe the sweat away and put my stake back.

"So you want us to find new guardians for a while?"

"We were wondering if you would come with us for a while." Christian's eyes widened, he was never shocked, and I have never noticed how white the whites of his eyes were against the shocking blue. "It wouldn't be permanent, just for a few months."

"What if we were attacked?" He asked and walked up to me, knocking the doll with his fist, it barely moved. "How would you protect us?"

"Well, Dimitri and I, both of your guardians would be there, plus we will have a few other guardians with us up in the 'safe' house. At the top of the Ashen mountains, behind the academy, it is only a few miles away with top security. You will be perfectly safe." I hated playing nice.

He nodded and smiled, "It would be like a holiday I guess."

"Will you please just talk to Lissa about it, make her think it isn't such a bad idea, help me out a little."

He shrugged, "I'll see what I can do." He said and walked out of the hall.

God, I really didn't like that guy. The way he smiled or the way he walked. Everything was with such air that he had no right to possess. I pulled a face and continued my practise. A few other people came in and trained, but I stayed there for hours. It was way past 10 at night when I finally listen to my complaining stomach. I showered and went to the canteen to buy a sandwich from one of the many vending machines in the hall. I could hear rustling behind me, I turned and was greeted with a half black canteen. The stake pressing against my thigh felt heavy.

I couldn't see anyone, it might be an animal that had found its way inside. I step forward and into someone. "You should watch were you're going Miss Hathaway." A man said who peered down at me with heavy brown eyes. He was obviously a Dhampir with his darker skin and bigger build. I made my apologies and hurried on to Dimitri's room. I let myself in and was greeted with the smell of after shave. The room was empty. It was quite a large room with beautiful decorations that Dimitri had to keep pristine. I opened a window and the curtains flapped around with the wild wind outside. Lolling on his bed I picked up one of his Western books and read what was so memorizing to him. I didn't understand why a God such as Dimitri would love these weird books. The way the desert seemed to travel on to a never ending point or the way men would kill other men for the simple fact of fun. How could it seem interesting to Dimitri when all we did all day was thinka bout how to kill someone and learn how to protect people? Maybe the heat that was always described in these books made him drawn to them. The way you could easily fall into the book and be surrounded by the day and have sunlight on your face, when you thought about it that way, it was quite memorizing.

"Wake up Rose." A man said to me. I rolled over and found his brown eyes staring into mine. Some days at times like these I forget how perfect he is his. How the way his breath on my skin could give me shivers, or how his eyes seemed to show how much he loved me. He leaned on the bed and it groaned under his weight, I moved slightly closer to him. "What were you doing reading my book?" He said and moved some of the hair out of my face.

"Just figuring out what went on in that head of yours." I answered and moved over to make some room for him. He sat down next to me. I had no idea what time it was, I must have fallen asleep. I was still half asleep and I couldn't wait to go back to go back to the land of dreams.

"You only go through my head." He answered lying down.

His big brown eyes glowed at me and I forgot just for a little while the reason I came here. We could talk about it tomorrow. "You have to been the corniest man I know." I said and poked him lightly. He gripped my hand and pulled me to him slightly.

"That's me being romantic." His voice was low and earnest. I stopped thinking and let his words eat me up, "Stay with me tonight?" He asked, running his hand over my hips. I wanted to, my god i couldn't believe how bad I wanted him around me tonight. My heart swelled and I shook my head.

"Not tonight, we need to rest for tomorrow." Tomorrow was Lissa parade. She had to travel to Evensville in Wisconsin tomorrow to visit the Vampire School there named Athena Academy. They apparently contained some of the most potential Guardians out of the seven Academy's based in America. For some reason, I really doubted that to be true.

I snuggled up to Dimitri, scrunching the fabric of his shirt in my hands. He smiled and rolled me over so I sat on top of him. I bent down and kissed him. I have kissed Dimitri more times than I can count, and every time i kiss him I always loose myself. His kiss is so powerful; it consumes me and makes me forget. His hands find my hair and pull my hair softly while the other traces my jaw line. His belt buckle pressed into my stomach and I groan. "Maybe a little fun before I go?" I asked on his lips. He laughed lightly and switched off the lamp before we began the one thing we can only share together.

Please leave some reviews and your thoughts, really help me out :D I'll keep updating as much as i can xxx
