reunited Chapter 1, a vampire academy fanfic

"Rose you should come out and celebrate with us. You've been cleared of all charges of treason. Everyone knows that you weren't the one to kill the queen. You found my sister and saved her from Victor and killed him after he admitted in front of the queen's guard that he killed the queen not you. This is a moment of celebration" Lissa said to me for the third time today. She really wants me to go to the club with them and have fun but I can't seem to get her to understand that I don't feel like celebrating. After all this that has finally gone right I still can't get Dimitri to see that we belong togeather. He still wont talk to me or even be around me. If I walk up to him he just turns and walks the opposite direction. I know that he will be there tonight and every time I look at him I am reminded of how much I love him and it hurts knowing that I can't be with him. I relize that while I've been thinking all this I still haven't answered Lissa and she is waiting on me to say something.

"I can't Lissa, I don't feel as if I should be celebrating. It still hurts to much to see Dimitri and know that he doesn't love me any more and doesn't want to be with me." I can't even look at her while saying this because tears are starting to form in my eyes and I can't let her see me cry over him. I'm suppose to be the badass Rose, guardian Hathaway; I can't cry about something like this in front of anyone not even Lissa my best friend.

"Rosemarie Hathaway you are coming out tonight and I don't want to hear another word about it. The club is a large place and there will be a lot of people there. You don't even need to see Dimitri if you don't want to. We can sit at a different table from him or you can sit at the bar. Hell I don't even know if he will be there he hasn't mentioned anything about going." Lissa stated. I could see in her eyes that I wasn't going to be able to get out of this one. I had to go tonight or she would never forgive me. I don't know why she is so adamint on this. " Alright, Lissa I'll go just calm down" I tell her. "You wont regret this Rose. I promise that you will have a great night and will be happy that you went." Lissa says with an odd look on her face like she knows something I don't that she is dying to tell me but wont tell.

We get ready in Lissa's room; she has a dress that she bought me for tonight. It's a black spighetti strap that comes down to the middle of my thigh and has a shear layer over the entire body of the dress. She places a few strategic curls in my hair but leaves it flowing down my back. I have black eyeshadow at the base of my eyes just above my eyelashes with a gray color just above that and black eyeliner on. The whole effect gives me a smokey eye appearance. Then Lissa adds just a little bit of pinkish brown lip gloss to my lips the tube says the color is called sexbomb. "Whats up, why are we getting so dressed up just to go to a club that we've been to a dozen times?" "I just think that you would have more fun this way. You'll make every guy there drool." Lissa said mysteriously.

We got to Tric the club Lissa insisted that we celebrate at and I notice that she was right about one thing; guys were definitely drooling when we walked in. We got to our table and saw that everyone was already there but I noticed that even though the table was full there was one person not there. Dimitri was no where in sight even though everyone including Christian, Adrian, Tasha, my mom, Abe and Alberta were all there. Even Stan and Eddie were there but there was no sign on Dimitri I guess Lissa was right about that too, I was happy and upset at the same time. I was happy because I wouldn't have to feel the pain of seeing him and knowing that I can't be with him but I was sad because I wanted to see his reaction to how I was dressed before he put his guardian mask back on.

The night was going great everyone was having a lot of fun. We'd been there for about an hour and there was still no sign of Dimitri so I stopped worrying that he was coming and just started to enjoy a night with my friends. The next thing I knew all the lights we dimmed so there was just one light and that was a spot light on the middle of the stage. Some guy that I assume was to be the entertainment for the night started talking. "I hope that everyone is enjoying their night. We here at Tric have a special treat for you. For one night only I'd like to introduce a singer who is here all the way from Russia "The Guardian". I knew that name from while I was in Russia I had heard a lot of people talking about this singer and how good he was. They thought it was such a waste of talent when he disappeared and stopped singing. I guess no one ever did find out who he truly was when ever I tried asking Victoria about him she would just smile and say that he stopped singing because he couldn't find his heart in the music any more that he had moved on to do something else with his life. It was such an odd thing to say but she didn't know who the singer was just believed that he must have found something else to live for.

The music started while I was reliving the memory of my conversation with Vikki and I suddenly relized that I knew the song. It was one that I have listened to many times since that fateful day at the academy when I lost the man I love, my soul mate and other half Dimitri. The song was "I never had a dream come true" by S Club 7. Its on my ipod and I've listened to it every day.

OooooooooooooooEverybodys got something they've had to leave behindOne regret from yesterday that just seems to grow with timeThere's no use lookin back or wonderinHow it could be now or might have beenOh this I know but still I can't find ways to let you go

That voice it sounds just like but it can't be. I'd never heard him sing before but I would swear it was him but it doesn't seem logical he doesn't sing. I've sang for him before and he told me that I was amazing and he loved to hear me sing but that he wasn't very good at it. I'd asked him to sing for me before but he would always say "not now Roza" or "I will later but I'm no good at it". I never did believe that it didn't seem right he was always good at anything he tried.

Chorus:I never had a dream come trueTil the day that I found youEven though I pretend that I've moved onYou'll always be my babyI never found the words to sayYou're the one I think about each dayAnd I know no matter where life takes me toA part of me will always be with youSomewhere in my memory I've lost all sense of timeAnd tomorrow could never beCause yesterday is all that fills my mindThere's no use looking back or wonderingHow it should be now or might have beenOh this I know but still I can't find ways to let you go

The light shinning on the singer became brighter and I relized that my heart was right even when my brain tried to deny it. There was Dimitri on the stage singing to me. It's no wonder Victoria was positive that The Guardian had found something else to do with his life that he enjoyed doing. She knew all along that The Guardian was Dimitri and that he was in fact now truly a guardian. I couldn't take my eyes off of him while he was singing and it seemed as if he was looking at me and singing just for me. I wish that were true but again my head refrused to agree with my heart and was telling me that Dimitri himself said he didn't love me any more so there was no way he was singing to me.

You'll always be the dream that fills my headYes you will say you will you know you will oh babyYou'll always be the one I know I'll never forgetThere's no use lookin back or wonderingBecause love is a strange and funny thingNo matter how I try and tryI just can't say goodbyeNo No No No

As Dimitri was ending the song all I could think was that I needed to get out of there before I started crying. He may have not known it but he was singing exactly what I feel about him when he was singing that song. It was all becoming too much to bear and I wasn't sure I could take any more. I stood up saying that I needed to use the bathroom the bad thing is I had to walk right past the stage and Dimitri to get out of here.
