"Because of the age difference."
Being a guardian, Dimitri Belikov was trained to have the ability to be able to think of multiple things at the same time. Most of the times, it is a highly useful skill, but sometimes, just sometimes, it can be a bit of a nuisance. However, in situations like this, he couldn't really decide which one it was.
There you see her
Sitting across the way
She don't got a lot to say
But there's something about her
And you don't know why
But you're dying to try
You wanna kiss the girl
Dimitri knew it is wrong for him to think of this stupid song when he and Rose were talking. He hated this song; his younger sister Viktoria used to sing it all the time just to annoy him. But for some reason Dimitri couldn't understand, the song just suddenly began playing in his head, and he couldn't stop it. He didn't even know how he managed to remember all the words.
"Yes,"
Yes, you want her
Look at her, you know you do
It's possible she wants you too
There's one way to ask her
It don't take a word, not a single word
Go on and kiss the girl
Involuntarily, Dimitri's eyes darted to Rose's lips and back. He silently cursed to himself as he hoped she didn't notice. But oh, how he wished to kiss those lips! Her soft skin and amazing body have been occupying his dreams since the night Victor Dashkov's compulsion spell had brought them together. He wanted her so badly it hurt.
"But more importantly because we're going to be Lissa's guardians and need to focus on her – not each other."
"Yes."
Shalala
My oh my
Looks like the boy's too shy
Ain't gonna kiss the girl
She fell silent for a moment. Little did she know that the man sitting in front of her was having a hard time trying to refrain himself from kissing her. And that he almost lost it when her chocolate orbs met his dark ones.
"Well, the way I see it, we aren't Lissa's guardians yet."
Shalala
Ain't that sad
It's such a shame
Too bad, you're gonna miss the girl
Go on and kiss the girl (kiss the girl)
So he did.
