Hi again, Here is my chapter two. It's shorter than my first one; I was going to write more but the last line I thought ended it pretty well. Hope you all like it, please review and comment
Chapter Two
Well my eyes were nice and blood shot now, but I managed to pull myself together. At least the guardians weren't outside my cell anymore, I suppose they thought, she can't do anything while locked behind bars. I just smiled to myself.
Then a familiar voice spoke "Well well, at least someone can smile in a place like this" It was Mikhail. "Believe me that wasn't a good smile", he came towards the bars. "Rose, how are you really?" I gave he a look like how the hell can you ask me that "Oh yeah just perfect, I'm on trial for my life, my not so undead lover has rejected me flat and above all" I stopped myself again, come on Rose you big mouthed idiot, you just nearly did it again. "Above all what?" Mikhail watched me closely to see how I would answer, he knows I'm hiding something the same way my old man knew. But wait a minute maybe Mikhail might be a good person to share this with, he may be able to find things out that none of us could, yes it's possible he could be of some help to me. Just as I was about to reveal all, the person I wanted to see least of all, the very person who could ruin everything.
Dimitri
The first thing I said was to Mikhail, not even acknowledging Dimitri's presence. "Mikhail, I can't discuss it now, but please visit again, I have something very important to discuss with you" I could see Dimitri's expression turn from worry to what the hell is going on. "Very well Rose, until we meet again, just one thing, I understand what you are going through". My reply to this comment was very soft and thankful "I know you understand, you are the only one who can understand, I hope time heals both of our hearts" Mikhail actually kissed my hand, whoa. Although I think that was meant to be a dig at Dimitri. He then flashed a grin at me and nodded as a goodbye.
Then I turned my back to Dimitri, I didn't want to see him, just like how he didn't want to see me. He spoke so softly it pierced my heart, "Roza"
I didn't get angry or start begging for his love, this time he had really hurt me. He doesn't deserve any forgiveness like he's already made perfectly clear. In a calm and very mature voice if I do say so myself I began "My name is Rose Marie, you don't have the right to use that name any longer. You gave up that right when you tore my heart into little pieces"
He said it again, but almost like he was pleading for his life, "Roza"
This time I got a little angry, I did not shed a tear, I knew if I did that would be it. I spoke his last name, something I never did very often. "Mr Belikov, I will inform you again, you have no right to use that name with me anymore", then I faced him. He looked so hurt to hear me say that name, But I stood strong and very proud like the man I love, my face calm but stern, I asked. "What are you here for, I will hear you out, but once I have done so, you will leave".
He started to speak "Roz, Rose, I'm here to see if you're alright, as much as you might not think so, I do still care about you", God that hurt, if I was the normal rose I would of said some stupid childish remark back at him, but no I stood there quietly, looking him straight in the eyes. I think this unnerved Dimitri a bit, to see me look as heartless as he was to me, but he made me this way. Well that's not entirely true, I had to do this, or everything will go wrong.
He spoke again "Rose, I know I've hurt you, but I have my reasons for what I have done" I snapped a bit "Have you finished, or do plan to hurt me even more with your excuses" alright I have to admit myself, that was a little harsh, from the look of Dimitri, that hit him really hard but like Dimitri, I have my reasons.
"I can see this is going nowhere right now, but I'm still concerned about what you were saying to the man that was here earlier, I also have questions about what Abe your father told me". Well I saw that one coming a mile away. I couldn't help but give him the same cruel smile that my father uses. "That has nothing to do with you, your role as guardian and lover is over, you no longer have any rights to my affairs" Then before he could respond I turned my back. Then all I heard was very fast foot steps towards the bars and I felt a hand go on my shoulder. The words that came out of my mouth when that happen were so cutting, I nearly cried myself.
I shouted, "DON'T TOUCH ME" I felt Dimitri's hand tremble and let go. I didn't turn back to him because I didn't want to see the face he was making now. All I said was my final goodbye for now, the killer blow in a soft calm voice, "Goodbye Dimitri Belikov, Comrade". I heard footsteps walking away from me then but he stopped, I gasped by mistake, I hope he didn't hear me.
"Roza" Dimitri spoke so sad and worried, "In spite of what I said, I do still love you", then the door closed.
I fell to my knees, every ounce of my strength had gone. I crawled to the bed and cried myself to sleep.
No sooner I fell asleep, Adrian was in front of me. "Don't cry my little dhampir" He wrapped his arms around me and I put my head on his chest, I felt so warm and safe.
