Rose's POV
I woke up, and my first thought was, what the hell happened last night? Damn it! Had i been drunk? No, there's no way, but my headace seemed to disagree. I sighed loudly and turned on my side. I looked at my clock. Dimitri was going to kill me. It was 9:43 and i was majorly late. I forced myself to get out of bed and grab my bag, noticing it felt heavier than usual. But i thought occured to me. I was already several hours late, what did a few more minutes matter? I decided to take a shower.
I got out and quickly got dressed. Sweats and a sweatshirt, what the hell. I was already feeling like crap. I put on some make up and fled out the door. I went down the beautiful halls and out the door. I took the long was hoping to hold out on my punishment from Dimitri. It was probably about 53 degrees outside but it felt like 75. I followed the paths, gazing at the trees and bushes. It was actually pretty nice outside. The school only complemented the beautiful scenery outside.
I stopped right outside the gym doors and took a deep breath. I reached for the door handle and slowed pulled it open and peaked inside. I searched for Dimitri. Hmm. He must be around here somewhere. I stepped inside. And placed my bag on the floor, I slowly walked around the gym confused. Surely Dimitri hadn't left as soon as he noticed I was late. No, that didn't sound like him at all. I walked into the bathroom and splashed some water on my face. My head was throbbing so fast and so hard. I felt like i was going to pass out. Hell, i probaly would knowing what Dimitri usually put me through. I studied myself in the mirror. After a few seconds I left the bathroom and walked over to my bag-still aware Dimitri was no where to be found-and unzipped it. I fished around for a towel untill i found one. I grabbed it and turned around and stood up to walk to the bedroom, when i heard a thump. What the? I bent over and see a bottle of asprin and a note.
Rose,
Take a few of these, they'll, make you feel better. But you know the best way to get rid of a hangover.
Best of luck.
My first thought was who the hell is able to write me a note and not leave me a name? And howd they get into my room? Another thought was what the note had said you know the best way to get rid of a hangover... So i was drunk last night. Hmm. And i did knwo how to get over a hangover. And that was to drink more. But their wasnt any alchohal in my bag. Or was there? I fished through my bag again untill i found a water bottle. Clever and sneaky. Well hell i was dealing with someone on my level and sneaky.
I picked it up and felt a weird sensation to want to drink it. Bad. I twisted the cap and hesitantly sniffed it. It smelt like vodka and orange juice. I could tell their was more orange juice than vodka, only to hide the smell. Soon, the sensation to drink the mix was hard to ignore. I sipped it. It didn't taste that bad. I took a few swigs. Lissa was at court for the rest of the week, and i was not allowed to go. Due to my rude and immatue actions. I didn't fight hard. I had been really busy and could tell Lissa didn't want me their. She could see just how busy and tired id been.
I had just finished the bottle when Dimitri stolled in. Oh how wonderful. I could have been in bed for at least another half an hour. Dimitri looked supprised to see me.
"Hello Rose." He looked confused.
"Hey pal." I could feel the vodka kicking in. "Where have you been?"
"Me?" Dimirti looked taken aback. "I have been running around looking for you." He answered. "You seemed to have a fun night." Dimitri added.
I opened my mouth to argue, but didnt have a clue what to say. "I-I uhm. I dont-"
"Remember." It wasnt a question. Dimitri looked so damn fine right now. I wanted so bad to just lace my fingers in his hair and tell him how much i needed him-how much i wanted him. I nodded.
"I know i shouldnt have. I dont remember a thing. I'm sorry. I know just because Lissas not here doesnt mean i get to party and have a crazy time. I'm so disppointed in myself. You dont have to tell me how disappointed in me you are and how im immature and should be more responsible and-"
Dimitri grabbed me and pulled me toward him. He hugged me. My arms stayed at my side. "I'm so glad your safe." He could barly makeing it a whisper.
"What?" He leaned back from me so we could look into eachothers eyes. He arms were stilled rapped around me. My breathing picked up. He wrinkled his nose.
"I can smell it." I saw a flash of something in his eyes. What was it? Disappointment? Shame? Jealously? "Please Rose-"
"What?" i interupted. What was wrong with him? Why was he acting like this? What in gods name did i do last night? I was getting impatient.
"You were so drunk last night." He swallowed hard. "Adriana used compulsion on you, well sort of. He infused it with the bottles or cups or whatever he gave you or placed on the table or whatever. I uhm might have hit him also." Oh, my god. Did Dimirti really hit Adriana. Whaat? "He did not just put the compulsion to make people drink it... he made you do other things." He stopped to breath, which he was doing very fastly. "Things you wouldn't normally do."
"Well, what did i do?" I asked laceing my words heavy with curiosity.
"For starters," He started saying.
