Rose POV
The sun shines down brightly and the grass is green as can be. The flowers are blooming and everyone has a smile on their face. It is truly one of those perfect days that make you feel like everything in the world is right and nothing can go wrong.
Currently, I'm on my way to the bus stop to pick up my best friends who just got back from college. It's summer break and we all live together when they aren't off at school.
My windows are rolled down and the sun is warming my face. I'm so excited. I haven't seen Lissa and Victoria since Christmas. I hated not being able to go to college with them but I had to stay home and take care of my mother.
I pull up next to the bus stop and turn off the car, waiting. It shouldn't be long until they're here. I lean my head back against the head rest and just watch the people passing by. I feel my chest tighten a little whenever a happy couple holding hands passes by. I'm already twenty-one and I can honestly say I've never been in love. Sure, I've had a couple boyfriends here and there but never anything serious. I'm even still a virgin. Every time I see a happy couple I always get a little sad wishing I could find someone. Lissa has her boyfriend Christian who she's been dating for almost three years now and Victoria and my friend Eddie started going out last year and so far are going strong. I'm the only one without anyone. Sighing I focus back on the people walking back and laugh as I see some toddler give his mom a hard time.
Finally about ten minutes later I see their bus pull up and them climb out laughing and smiling. I hop out of the car and run over to them.
"Liss! Vicky! Oh my god, I missed you guys!" I throw my arms around them both, pulling them in for a group hug. They both laugh and hug me back.
"We missed you too Rose," Lissa says, placing a sisterly kiss on my cheek, while Victoria kisses the other. I just laugh and hook my arms through theirs and lead them to the car.
Soon, we've pilled their bags into the truck and are on our way back to our house. We joke and laugh the whole way home, and they tell me about how college life is and I tell them how my mom's doing and how work has been going.
About twenty minutes later, we arrive home and I help them carry their bags inside. Once we have everything settled down we decide to order lunch and just chill for the rest of the day.
Suddenly, there's a knock on the front door. I figure it's just the food delivery. I open the door and bam! Standing in front of me is the most gorgeous man I have ever seen, shoulder length hair, beautiful brown eyes and the best body I've ever seen. It takes me a few seconds to take him all on before I realize he's breathing really hard and holding his hand against his shoulder. That's when I notice the blood seeping through his fingers as he clutches his shoulder.
"Please, please! Is Victoria here? She told me this was her address, please! I am her brother, Dimitri," the man tells me, gasping for air.
Quickly, I open the door and let him in. I know Victoria has a brother but she said he was in Russia and would never come and see her. She never had any pictures to show us because he always refused to take any.
Dimitri trips through the front door and almost falls before I catch him, keeping him steady.
"Easy there," I say to him.
"Victoria! Get your ass out here now we have an emergency!" I yell.
Victoria comes running around the corner and freezes when she sees Dimitri.
"Oh my god, what happened?" she yells at Dimitri.
"Please Vicky, just let me stay here until I fix this up and then I'll leave," Dimitri barely gasps out.
"Dimitri you're gushing blood! You need to go to a hospital!" Victoria yells at him once again. I agreed with her but decided to keep my opinion to myself.
"No, I cannot go to a hospital. You know why. Please Victoria just let me stay here for a bit, I have no where else to go. I got shot but it just grazed my shoulder. I'll be fine. I just gotta clean it up. Now, where is the restroom?" Dimitri asks. I am just about to help him there when Lissa walks around the corner and stops dead. She sees the blood gushing from Dimitri's shoulder and turns green and runs for the closest bathroom.
Dammit Lissa! I think to myself.
"Come on. I'll take you upstairs," I say to him, helping him to the stairs. He's leaning heavily on me and even though he's in bad shape and I shouldn't even be thinking about anything but helping him, I can't help but feel this weird connection flowing between us. Like electricity shooting between where are bodies touch. I shiver a little and help him up the stairs.
I take him into my bedroom and to the bathroom.
"I should be able to handle this on my own," Dimitri says to me, right before he faints. Luckily, I'm right there and am able to keep him from completely falling to the ground. He's so heavy and I'm barely able to drag him to my bed. I lean him up against the side of my bed and decide I'm going to have to take care of him myself. Thank God, I'm in the local nursing school and can handle this type of injury, unlike Lissa.
I grab some scissors off my dresser and cut Dimitri's shirt off so that I don't have to move his shoulder much. I falter for a second when I see his beautifully sculpted body. Quickly, I regain myself and set to work. There is blood every where but I get a wash cloth and quickly clean the wound up. He's right, it did only graze him, but he's still going to need some stitches, at least I know I don't have to dig out a bullet. I've just finished cleaning up the wound, and I'm thinking about how the hell am I going to stitch him up when I remember I accidentally left work yesterday with some thread and and a needle in my pocket when I was called out, right when I was stitching up a patient.
"Victoria!" I yell down the stairs to her, "I need you to bring me my purse, quickly please!"
"Coming!" she yells back and I hear her racing up the stairs.
"Here ya go," she says handing it to me.
"Good, I am going to need your help," I say to her.
"Whatever you need," she answers and I can see how worried about her brother she is.
Quickly, I sterilize the needle and ask her to hold her brother up and tell me if he starts to wake. I set I work stitching up his wound. I'm done fairly quickly and then put a bandage on it. I thank God he stayed asleep doing the whole thing.
"Alright that should be good. Here help me get him on the bed," I say to her.
After some grunting and maneuvering we are able to get him settled on the bed. I tuck a blanket around him and then follow Victoria back downstairs.
"Victoria, what the hell does your brother do?" I demand of her. She gives me a sheepish look.
"I'm not suppose to tell anyone. Heck, I'm not even suppose to know but I guess I can tell you. My brother is a double agent for the FBI. He pretends to be an agent with the Russian Mafia but he actually works for the US."
I hear myself gasp and then I think to myself, What the hell have I just gotten myself into?
