Dance Till Death By Everlynn Roberts.
Chapter 2
I ran to practice, late. As always. Dimitri was laying on a mat reading one of his old western novels, I tried to sneak in, but I was caught. "You're late." He said, and then looked up. "But aren't you always?" he gave me one of his half smiles, that's all I ever get.
"Sorry, Lissa was healing me from yesterdays practice." I complained, but he just chuckled.
"Run seventeen laps." He told me then started reading again. But I knocked the book out of his hands.
"What!" I yelled, which just made him laugh more.
"I'll run with you."
"Ok!" I started running. (Ha-ha, Bipolar much? Hey! What's that supposed to mean! Umm . . . Nothing. . )
We finished, and then started practicing on the dummies. I took a break for some water. "That's all were doing today." Then he paused and started whispering to himself quietly. "And for a while. . ." But I heard it.
"What? Why?" I questioned.
"Never mind that, Roza, go get ready for class." He walked out of the gym.
"Does that mean we don't have practice tonight?" I yelled after him, but he was already gone. "Damn!" I cussed, and got a few glares from passing students.
I began to run back to my dorm to get a jacket, because I dint feel like changing out of the sports bra, but halfway there I began coughing.
It felt like my lungs were about to burst. . . and maybe they did.
I covered my mouth and saw blood coming out whenever I coughed. My eyes widened, then I passed out. About a minute later I woke to Adrian carrying me to the infirmary.
"Put me down!" I said as soon as I realized I was being carried.
"Aww, little dhampir, sorry, cant do that." He grinned.
"Why not!" I yelled some more.
"'Cuz I don't want to." He said with a cocky smile on his face.
I elbowed him and jumped from his arms. "I know how to walk." I smiled and did it, but soon became dizzy. Adrian came up and steadied me.
"You're sure?" He chuckled. "I'll give you a piggy back ride!" I rolled my eyes, but then hopped onto his back.
Adrian's POV
I stepped outside to take a smoke, and began to walk around, kind of wandering off by the dhampir dorms. While swooping around like a creeper I saw rose laying on the ground passed out, blood stained on her hand. "Rose!"I yelled out and picked her up. "Wake up, rose!" She started to get swirmy.
I started to take her to the infirmary, but then she woke up. . .
Rose's POV
I didn't feel very good, and probably didn't look very good either. "I'm tired."I complained mostly to myself.
"Well, then hopefully Dr. Olendzki will let you rest." He chuckled then set me down when we got there.
"Rose, your back, again?" Dr. Olendzki asked me.
"Aww, you know I'm your favorite patient." I bragged.
She laughed. "Ok, Rose, why are you here?" She asked.
"Well, I wake up with bruises every morning, I've had a tempature for the past three days, I've had a lot of pain through my joints, I just coughed up blood I've been feeling light-headed, I look extremely pale, and I'm not healing as fast as I used to."I held up my elbow to reveile a scab. "I got this last week! And . . . I've been feeling tired a lot. ."I shrugged like nothing was going on.
But now Dr. Olendzki wasn't smiling, she looked, well. . . sad. "Rose. . . This sounds serious. .We'll have to run some tests."
"What! What kinds of tests!"
"Well, we'll have to take a blood sample, and if that comes back negative you'll have to have a bone marrow biopsy."She said calmly.
"A WHAT!"I yelled as loud as I could.
"In bone marrow aspiration, a syringe is used to remove a small amount of liquid bone marrow (about 1 teaspoon). The bone marrow sample is generally taken from the pelvic (hip) bone. Sometimes the needle going into the bone is painful, but it only lasts a short time. The removal of the bone marrow is often painful or at least uncomfortable for a brief time."
"No! No way is someone going to shove a giant needle in my Pelvic area!" I tried to get up to leave, but I still felt dizzy.
"Rose, they have to." Adrian said behind me. For a while I forgot he was even there. I glared at him.
"Before you take any blood from me, can I at least call Lissa so she knows where I am?" I asked and she nodded.
I dialed her number and it rang, but she didn't pick up. "Hey Liss, It's Rose. I'm with Adrian at the Infirmary; umm . . . stop by if you could. . . I'm about to get some needles in me!" At that I hung up.
"Ok . . . Guess I'm ready. Stick me Doc!"
