My Comrade, He falls.
The voice had been echoing in my head for a few days now but it's getting louder more aggressive telling me to go find him. Find Dimitri. The sun light shone through my open window. Find him. Go now. I rose from my bed. I slid my pyjamas off, I went to my underwear draw and slid grabbed the bag labelled Victoria's secret. I opened the bag and quickly pulled on the Bright red matching underwear set and my thigh high black stockings. I slid on my thongs and a big jacket.
I quickly made my way through the school grounds and over to the teacher dorms. I didn't know which room was his until the voice made another appearance. It's room 327. A nonexistent pull was leading me to his room. I gave a quick and silent knock. After a few bangs and some moaning from a half asleep Dimitri opened his door.
'Roz-Rose what are you doing here ?' His eyebrows furrowed into a confused look. His eyes squinting at me because of the bright hallway lights.
'Can I come in?' I looked at him. He studied me with his dark brown orbs. Don't ask just do. Go in he is yours to have. Now have Him. Without further confirmation I pushed past him and made my way over to his bed. I kicked my shoes of and pulled my dress over my head. I layed myself sprawled across his sheet tangled bed and waited for him to turn around. He slowly shut his door then turned to face me.
'ROSE? WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING?' His voice loud and clear. I'm surprised no one rushed in. He came over to the bed and grabbed my wrist trying to yank me off the bed. But as soon as we made contact he was no longer tried to pull me of the bed. He was now pushing my on to the bed. His lips crushed on to mine at full force his body hovered over mine. His kisses trailed down my neck, between my breasts and on to my stomach.
I had dreamed of this for so long and now it was happening I was thinking that any moment I would wake. His hands slithered up my sides gripped on to my underwear. He slowly brang them down and began to hover over me once more. He slowly entered me. The first time I winced in pain.
'Are you alright my Roza?' He had stopped now studying me. His big brown orbs digging into my eyes.
'Fine, It just hurts you know. Most my friends say it hurt on their first time too' His eyes widened and a grin covered his face.
'I-I am your first?' He stared at me. Waiting for my answer. I looked into his pleading eyes and nodded. With a quick force his lips started to kiss my body again.
'You are beautiful my Roza' I told me as he entered me once again. The night was long and we went again and again until our bodies could take no more.
As the sun started to set we fell asleep. Dimitri's arm protectively gripped around my stomach. There is no getting away. You did it. You got him.
I rolled over to face Dimitri. I necklace I had found in my jewellery box just that morning digging into my neck. I sat up and took the locket off. I placed it on to the table that sat beside the bed. I laid back down. As soon as my head hit the pillow the darkness consumed me.
The buzzing of an alarm clock woke me from my sleep. The noise seemed to be getting louder. I rolled to the side of my bed and tried to hit my alarm clock but all I found was my necklace sitting on a table that didn't belong to me. I sat up pulling the sheet to cover my body. Dimitri sat on the opposite side of the room in a lone chair staring at me.
'ROSE, WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU DO?' He voice echoed through the room and I'm sure through the whole school. But yet no one came. He stood now knocking the chair over.
'What do you mean comrade? I didn't do anything?' I watched him study me with his deep brown eyes and hoped that he wouldn't get any angrier than he is now. I grabbed my underwear from the floor and slid them on while I was still covered by the sheet. I grabbed my necklace and put it on and slid on my dress. That's when it happened. I remembered. I put the necklace on and I remembered. Kiss him. Make him yours. Dimitri was watching me intensely. Kiss Him. No. You want to kiss him so make him yours. No. I ripped the necklace off and fell to the floor.
'Rose? Are you okay?' He was still angry but worry had overcome the anger. I lifted my head from staring at the ground. Tears formed in my eyes as he took a step towards me.
'Comrade it wasn't me, it was the necklace it is laced with compulsion. I'm so sorry' the tears rolled from my eyes and ran down my cheeks.
'It's okay Roza. I need you to keep quiet about this and no to tell anyone. Not even the princess. Can you do that my Roza?' I quickly have a nod and pulled myself up and left.
4 WEEK LATER
I hadn't spoken to or seen Dimitri since that night. He wouldn't be at training or at his shift. I have searched and searched and he is nowhere to be found. I checked his room and all his books and photos of family are still there but he is not. He is avoiding me. I'm sure of it. If he had left he would have taken his cowboy books with him. The cold wind brushed up against my face as I rounded the corner. The sun would be rising soon. I made my way back to my room and collapsed on my bed. The darkness swallowed me as I dreamt of Dimitri.
I felt it before my eyes were even awake. I sprung from my bed the bathroom door not that far away. I had no control it was coming wether I liked it or not. I made it to the toilet just before it started. My head ached and my mouth tasted rough and disgusting so the way to sum it up is I feel like shit. This had happened before. Every morning for the past three weeks. I only had one reason to why this was happening and It is impossible because Dimitri is Dhampir. I'd rather prove myself wrong than not know at all.
The walk to the infirmary was a short one. The star shine bright and high. The clouds low and gloomy. I made the walk alone and the only thing that I wanted was him here holding my hand telling me it was going to be okay. Although I hated the infirmary I loved the people that run it. The white walls making the dark blue sky outside seem Black.
'Rose ? How can I help you today?' The nurse Amelia is her name, made the infirmary a fun place to be. I stood really close to her so no one would have the chance to hear not that there was anyone in the room anyway.
'I need a pregnancy test' I whispered. She looked at me wide eyed and did a quick swift nod. She grabbed my hand and pulled me into a small room at the back of the infirmary. She handed me the small stick and gave me a reassuring smile. I used the toilet that was connected to the small room and sat for the seven minutes. All it took was one glance and I knew. I bolted from the infirmary and into the woods. I collapsed and cried after I was reassured that nobody would see me. I heard the footsteps only seconds before his arms were around me.
'What's wrong Roza?' I turned to face his. The salty tears running down my face. He watched me as i tried to gather strength to tell him the news.
'Dimitri I-I-I'm pregnant. It's your baby' The protective arm he had around me was now used to push me away.
'That's impossible!' I saw it in his eyes. He wanted to believe it but the science was what he was trusting. I had to prove it so I told him the only reason I could think of. With the thoughts weighing on me and his anger filled face staring at me I made the choice to voice my only thought of explanation.
'It's because I'm shadow kissed.' He crumbled to the ground and gripped me tight.
'Is it true? Don't lie to me. I just want honesty' He stared at me with his brown eyes. I gave a nod with tears forming in my eyes once again. I pulled him close to me and took in his scent. His after shave and his natural smells.
That's when I heard it. The ear piercing ring that meant someone had broken the wards. We were in danger. Even more so than the others because we are closer to the fence. Dimitri reacted before I knew what was happening. He pushed me behind him. That's when I saw them. The stroigi their red rimmed eyes walking towards us. In a flash of an eye the stroigi attacked and Dimitri fought. There was only one of the seven left now. I turned to see the guardians running up behind us to help Dimitri but they weren't fast enough. The shot rang out. The last stroigi had a gun. The bullet went into Dimitri's chest and straight out the back. And my Comrade, My Russian god, the father of my child fell. A scream erupted from my lungs and I fell to the floor with the love of my life.
