Chapter 1

RPOV

I sat in another one on Stan's o-so-great lessons. Note the sarcasm! I wasn't paying attention to anything the Stan was wittering on about and just sat in my makeshift seat next to Eddie day dreaming whilst twiddling a piece of my hair. My hair that a certain Russian god loves. I used to think it was past tense about his feeling for me. However, the things in the last few days have definitely told me i was wrong. Well one main thing. The CABIN. Oh god... NO I can not think about that here. I was also very aware, that said man in question was standing in the back of my classroom on duty, whilst subtly keeping an eye on me. Mainly because me and Stanny boy don't have the best of relationships. If you can even call his hatred for me a relationship! As chessy as it sounds today i was dreaming about mine and Dimitri's future- if i survived high school that is. Which no joke is actually quite hard,; espically when ever time i close my eyes i get the image of Dimitri nearly being taken down by that blond strigoi...

-Flashback-

We were almost out of the caves from our rescue mission. When i felt nausea from my stomach i opened my mouth to warn the few of us running to saftey when a herd of strigoi jumped out in our path and heard a strangled scream and saw blood EVERYWHERE. One jumped out for Ms Carmack, but my mother jerked her and away and shoved her forwards towards us. The third strigoi grabbed Dimitri. In all the time I'd known him, I had never seen him falter. He was alway faster, always stronger than everyone else. Not this strigoi had caught him by surprise and thats all it took.

I stared this was the blond strigoi who had spoken to me and Christian in the battle. I heard a distraught scream and it took me a couple seconds to realize it was my own. My mother realize what i was about to down,lunged towards me. I dodged her, barely, and blocked the after math.I heard Alberta screaming at me for me to come back but there was no way i was going back. I just got my soul mate and I promised i would never let anything happen to him and i was not gonna break that promise for a stupid order. The strigoi was so concentrated on sucking to life out of my ma he didn't even see me. I took the opening when i saw it no matter how small or dangerous it was and staked him with all my will power through his back to his heart. He collapsed on to of Dimitri but not before instinct threw me back. Onto a wall of spiked rocks no less. Causing me to black out and-

I was jerked out of my depressing memories , that i never wanted to have to live again, when Stan shouted "MISS HATHWAY... HATHWAY". What oh yeah i was still in this class...

"Huh."I said not bothering to say anything else. I could almost feel Dimitri's eye roll.

"I asked a question!" He said in an annoyed tone. Eh... most people would have apologized but i was bored and i couldn't care less. So comrade don't blame me for me next words!

"Oh sorry stanny-boy but i don't want to go out with you thanks." I said in a falsely apologetic tone and a sickly sweet tone. A couple sniggers escaped the class and rest visibly bit back there laughter. Stan flushed a deep crimson and i had to bit the inside of my cheek to stop me from laughing.

"MISS HATHAWAY. I would send you to Kirova" bitch " but she is to busy to deal with your childish behaviour so I will repeat my question" he said very pissed off now... oh well.

" What would be the correct thing to do if you and your charge where out -in daylight I might add- and you didn't have your stake on you,then a strigoi attacked you". He said with a smug expression, clearly thinking i didn't know the right answer.I shot him an icy glare at the " your charge" part basically implying I might NOT get Lissa...

Then I realised what he just asked and laughed out loud and looked at Dimitri. I could see confusion in his eyes for a second, then he realised and gave me a knowing look. Dimitri had in fact asked me the same question in one of our first training session and given me the answer. I turned back to Stan who looked confused at why i had turned around. I gave hiM a smug look,then said...

A/N sorry i was so sort i promised the rest of the chapters will be longer. You may have realized that this is a Romitri story by now. It has a couple moment between them :) but it does have a plot . I have kept this sort just to give you a feeling of it. It is if Dimitri was never turned at the rescue mission and it was succesful!

R&R!
