CHAPTER 2
HELLO, GOODBYE
„I've got a great idea," Sonja grinned wickedly at her brother and I knew nothing good could come out of it. But hey, things couldn't get any worse at this moment. „I'll give you Belikov and James is mine."
„You can't toss around mentors like dolls," Niko sighed, shaking his head.
„I don't give a damn. Seriously! I'm going to talk to Aunt Lissa," she stated, firmly.
„Mom," Niko turned to me, waiting for me to say something, only I barely heard a world they said. „Mom!"
„Oh, yes?" I asked dumbfounded.
„Are you alright? You seem a little pale," Niko watched me concerned.
Sure, I feel amazing. Your daddy is here. Hurray!
„I'm fine," I forced a smile to my face. „Just zoomed out a little. What did I miss?"
„I'm going to ask Aunt Lissa to replace Belikov with James," she answered, proudly of her new plan.
„Sis', you can't ask Aunt Lissa to favour you."
„I will talk to her," I said, standing up from my chair.
„What?"
They both looked at me like I lost my mind. They were sweet when they talked at once. Their face was priceless. Normally, I would calm Sonja down and I would be definitely against the idea about asking something like that from Lissa.
„You heard me," I said again, heading to the door. „I'll talk to her."
I was practically running to Lissa's office. I wanted to tell her I didn't want Dimitri here. I don't want him near to me or the twins. I asked my children every year if they wanted to know who their father was but they never did. Honestly, I'm thankful for it. Though on the other hand I feel bad about keeping them away from Dimitri. But I'm a selfish creature and I want my children to myself. He left without a word. Literally. One day he was here, the next he wasn't. So I don't owe him anything.
Lost in my thoughts I ran into somebody in front of Lissa's office. I knew instantly who it was, I didn't even have to look. Dimitri. He reached for me, steading me so I wouldn't fall back. I felt my stomach clench. His touch still made me feel things what I thought was impossible.
„Rosa…"
I closed my eyes, let his voice sinking. God, how I missed it. The connection was still there, as strong as ever. Through the years I made myself believe I didn't love him anymore. Who was I kidding?
„Guardian Belikov," I nodded, taking a step back.
My voice was surprisingly calm and I could see the hurt in his eyes. I was proud of myself since I thought a few seconds back than I couldn't even say a word. It was like all these feelings I pushed down suddenly attacked me. I felt dizzy. This was so overwhelming I might faint in any moment. But I'm Rose Hathaway and I don't faint no matter what.
„Oh, I thought I heard noises out here," Lissa opened the door, smiling at us.
She didn't feel the tention between us as we stood there, staring at each other. Lucky me, my best friend can miss anything, even if it's scream in her face.
„Don't just stand there, come in," Lissa laughed, going back to her desk.
„Have you heard Rose? Guardian Belikov is the new mentor of Sonja," Lissa said, cheerfuly, grinning at me.
I glanced at Dimitri. His face showed nothing.
„Actually, that's what I wanted to talk…"
„Oh, you don't have to say thanks. Meron would have left anyway and I knew you would be happy with Guardian Belikov."
I swallowed hard, trying hard not to think about the meaning of her words. You would be happy with Guardian Belikov… I glanced at him again, seeing I wasn't the one Lissa words touched. I have to talk to Lissa. Alone. I have to tell her the truth even if she will be very pissed.
„Lissa, can I talk to you for a sec?" I asked.
„Sorry, but I've got tones of paperwork but hey, I make dinner and everybody will come over, you and the kids, too," she rambled, excited. „You know, something like welcome home Tasha and…"
„Tasha is here?" I asked with an edge in my voice, looking hard at Dimitri.
„I'm her guardian Rose," Dimitri answered the obvious.
What did I think? Of course she was here. He was her guardian. Where Dimitri went, Tasha followed, vicaversa. How romantic…
„Of course," I smirked and started out. „See you, Liss."
As I was walking down the hall I felt he was following me. Hmm, now he's a stalker or what? He started to get on my nerves with this following in silence crap.
„What?" I stopped and turned to him irritated.
„I just…" he started but ended up sighing. „Your daughter is amazing. You know, she's remind me of you."
I almost yelled at him, WE've got an amazing daughter but you left before you could have known her because you were a big fat coward. Instead, I tried to answer cooly.
„Yes, she's amazing," I nodded. „That's it?" I tried to raise an eyebrow but couldn't do it. Yes, I still don't how to do this cool one eyebrow raising thing. Nobody can be perfect.
„May I ask…" he looked emberassed.
Wow, now that was something I never thought it would happen. Dimitri Belikov emberassed.
„May I ask who the father is?" he stared at me so intensly I felt like he saw right trough me, right through to my soul.
How dare he? He's got no right to look at me like that and he's got no right to ask about the father of my children. Oh, hell, maybe he's got but he doesn't know about it.
„No, you may not," I glared at him and turned on my heal.
So that's it for now. More Dimitri, twins and... and !Adrian! in the next chapter. AGAIN YOU ARE AMAZING, LOVE Y'ALL :D Don't forget to review. FEEDBACK IS LOVE
