A/N: okie dokes, so its in the last bit of March and we all know (at least I think we do...) that Rose's birthday is somewhere in the end of this month. So I decided to write a quick two shot of what I thought could happen at a birthday celebration for her.

I might even write some for more character's depending on how well this goes. It's only a two shot, so it'll be pretty short. I finished the whole story but didn't want to put the whole thing out now, but the next/last part will be out tomorrow.

Please R & R :D

The pulsing music could be heard from outside the club. I pulled my jacket tighter around my frame as a chilly breeze blew through.

"Tell me again why we're going to the club at the tail end of winter?" I asked annoyed.

"For a certain someone's birthday," Lissa said with a smile and a playful nudge to my arm. I rolled my eyes but smiled anyway.

"I can't believe you dragged me out here," Christian said, his hands stuffed into his pockets.

"If Dimitri can man up and go out to a club with us, so can you," I retorted as Dimitri joined us again. He had been parking the car for us as we waited. Sure Dimitri looked completely uncomfortable but he was here and that's what counted.

Lissa, who insisted on taking us out for my birthday for a special double celebration, (seeing that my birthday last year involved dropping out of school to hunt down Strigoi Dimitri) reserved a VIP lounge for us. We walked right up to the bouncer and Lissa told him our reservation. He found our names and checked them off before letting us in.

Inside, the walls were literally vibrating from the heavy bass and the floor was crowded with dancing bodies. I slipped off my coat and Lissa followed suit. We wore contrasting outfits and smiled at each other in amusement. I wore a grey sparkly tank top and high waisted black shorts. My hair was up in a messy bun and I had on black strappy heels.

Lissa wore a peach colored dress that reached a little higher than her thigh. Her hair was up in a ponytail and her heels were light pink. I kept my make up to a minimal black eyeliner and mascara look, but Lissa wore pink sparkly eye shadow and light pink blush to bring color to her face. We linked arms and walked over to our reserved booth before sliding in.

"Don't you think it's weird going to a club and not being able to drink?" Christian called over the music. Instantly Lissa and I both held up our fake IDs. After bugging Abe for so long, I managed to get him to create them for us. Without my mother knowing of course. Lissa slid Christian's across the table and he looked at in amusement and shook his head.

"I'm not even gonna ask," he said. From the corner of my eye I could see Dimitri shaking his head disapprovingly. I playfully bumped his arm with my shoulder.

"Loosen up, comrade. You had no problem with me drinking vodka in Russia," I pointed out. Instead of trying to yell over the music, he gave me a look that said 'touché'. Once we ordered some drinks to an unsuspecting waitress, I pulled Lissa out onto the dance floor. When we were on the run, Lissa would let me sneak us into a club once and a while so blending into the mold of things was simple.

We twirled and jumped to the music freely. After a few songs, we slid past people back to our booth. Our drinks sat on our table. Christian and Dimitri were talking about something but we didn't pay attention to their conversation topic. I took a sip of my margarita and let the cool liquid make its way down my throat.

"How are you two gossiping girls?" I teased. Christian made a face at me and I made one right back. We went back and forth for a couple minutes before Lissa finally interjected.

"Okay!" She said laughing. "We get it. You two are carrying on like children."

"I am a child," I said straight-faced.

"Obviously," Christian said with a smirk. I dipped my fingers into my drink and then splayed them at Christian so the liquid would spray him. He glared at me as he wiped off his face.

"Was that necessary Rose," Dimitri said. He was trying to be serious but I could see the hidden smile in his eyes. In the seriousness of our jobs, I knew he was happy to see me so happy.

I nodded, "Yes. Very much so."

Lissa got up suddenly and took Christian's hand. They whispered something to each other and then Christian got up and followed Lissa to the dance floor. I scooted closer to Dimitri and he wrapped his arm around my shoulders. I rested my head on his shoulder.

"I know it's not your scene, but thank you for coming with us," I said.

"Of course, it's your birthday after all." We sat close to each other, talking to each other for a while before Dimitri got up to use the restroom. While he was gone a distressed Christian broke through the crowd.

"Rose!" He called. I frowned and climbed out of the booth.

"What's wrong?"

"Lissa…she's…she's gone."
