VAMPIRE ACADEMY: FROSTBITE
A/N- I do not own any of the characters used in this story. It is set in the book 'Frostbite' before Rose finds out from her mother about Dimitri and Tasha's arrangement. A part of this books text will be incorporated into the story to which I do not own (this will be in the second chapter.) This will be from Lissa's point of view. Enjoy.
I always wondered if Rose was in my mind. Sometimes I hate it that she can see and feel what I'm thinking and going through. It's like an invasion of privacy on a totally new scale. However it's sometimes better that she knows some things so that she can help me, especially with all the magic stuff. I never thought I'd be able to help her whenever she needed it but one day back before we set off for the winter resort changed everything.
That day in the morning I was sat in Christians arms, slightly listening to what he was saying so that I wouldn't lose track just in case he asked me a question. He was bantering on about offensive magic that Tasha (his aunt) was going to teach him (illegally). Naturally my mind was elsewhere, thinking about the Strigoi attacks and about how Rose was keeping something from me. The Strigoi attacks struck fear within my mind and heart. I began to wonder if anywhere was safe from them. Everyone has been saying that it is unusual for them to band together with humans in such large numbers. Rose… well she and I haven't been talking much for the past few weeks but I can still tell when something is playing on her mind. At first I though that it was her moms visit to the Academy but soon realised that Rose has had the problem a lot longer. I just wish she'd talk to me about it.
"Liss?" Christian had asked me a question which I clearly hadn't heard. This annoyed him sometimes but he has admitted that he doesn't really mind because I have a lot of stuff to deal with. I couldn't help it. I apologised and kissed him sweetly. He went to the bathroom and I returned to my thoughts about Rose. She had never been so secretive before, or at all to be honest. It wasn't like her.
During that thought something came over me and the next think I knew major feelings of passion, love and excitement burst through me. I panicked, not knowing what was going on. I could no longer see my room. Christians shouts sounded distant and I slipped further into the strangeness of the situation. The pleasure intensified and scared me more because these were not my feelings and emotions. I tried blinking but still could see nothing. Trying to relax was out of the question. Every time I tried the feelings got stronger.
I opened my eyes and saw Dimitri above me. Screaming was my natural response but no sound came. I saw my arms wrapping around his naked waist and pulling him closer for a kiss. I could not believe this dream. I noticed the colour of my skin. I WAS ROSE! I WAS IN ROSE'S MIND. I love you Dimitri. Roza… The love was burning out of them, nothing I've ever known before. They were making love and were crazy about each other. I knew that because I could hear what Rose was thinking.
"I knew he cared. I knew it! Now we can be close, together. I love him. I love him."
This was the secret that she was hiding from me. I would have never guessed it. I also found out how weird it was to be in her mind and feeling what she was feeling. It was kind of gross and I had to get out of there. Dimitri and Rose… Wow.
I came back to my own mind. Christian looked worried.
"Baby… what's wrong?"
"I..I was in Rose's mind…"
