Chapter 1

His hand slithered down my shoulder, all the way to my right hip. The quilt cover of the bed covered me and him. I turned around and my head rested on a hard surface. I moaned gently.

'What a wonderful dream' I thought.

"This isn't a dream Roza." I heard a familiar attractive Russian voice.

"Yes it is, what are you talking about?" I mumbled dreamily.

"If this is a dream, you wouldn't mind if I do this?"

Suddenly I felt a hand poke me-hard… Ouch! I shot up from my bed and my stake was in my hand within a second. I looked at the scene in front of me. I was in my room, at the court, early in the morning (which is late at night since we ran on a nocturnal schedule.)

The next thing I saw: Dimitri

Dimitri was in the room. He was looking at me amusingly. Geez… I wonder what I did to deserve that? I ran towards him and jumped into his arms. Well, at least he tried to. Yep, I totally caught him by surprise.

'You know, you are very-' I cut him off.

"Very what? Adorable? Delicious? … Sexy?" I said it in my most seducing voice possible.

"Very strange, especially when you're trying to figure out the difference between a dream and reality. But, I will accept your suggestions too." He winked.

"I only got back with Christian from the flight and now you're sleeping on me?"

"Yes, I am sleeping on you." He gave me a confused look but I continued.

I pushed him onto the bed with his back first and placed my body on top of his.

"When I sleep, that means I'm sleeping on you. Okay?" He smiled.

"Okay Roza, whatever you say, I will oblige."

"Don't make me hit your precious little face with a dictionary, comrade."

"Hmm, no hard words for Rose Hathaway at five A.M in the morning? Alright then. "

Silence…

I would usually like hearing his voice, but this time… I was so tired I felt myself cuddle myself into a little ball. But the thing is, I was getting quite the boredom.

"You know, now that you've woken me up, you're going to have to pay for it…" I said gradually.

I could feel a hint of a smile rising upon his cheeks. Uh oh, what's he gonna do? Then, he suddenly kissed me, gently at first but harder and harder as time went on. He rolled me over and kissed me one more time.

"Okay, now we sleep." What did he just say?

"But, I wanted more…"

"Alright, we're also going to the Corn Palace first thing in the morning."

The Corn Palace? Where have I heard that before? Something inside my brain clicked.

"Wait! What?"
