Chapter two

As happy as I was I walked to school. I had a big presentation which I some sort of had forgotten about but my subject was about animal behavior.

Which I find very interesting and knew a lot about. With a bit of freelancing it earned me an 8.

I walked to my new class when I heard some amazing music. I walked in and saw this black haired blue eyed boy.

"Hey that sounds amazing! Are you new here? My name is Rose."

"Hello I'm Christian. And yes I'm a transfer from Europe. But the music program was better here along with opportunities for my future."

I only noticed now that he was a Moroi. A pretty hot one.

We had a conversation and soon I learned we had the same humor. Nice to finally meet someone who could handle my jokes.

"Wel it was nice to meet you sparky, see ya!"

"See ya Rose."

It was a pretty long day. And soon I found myself rushing to training since I did not wanted to be late again.

I fortunately wasn't and the training went really well.

"Hey Rose, can I talk to you after class?" Asked Dimitri.

"Sure, you probably want to learn which shampoo I use." Because you know I did see him staring at my hair a few times.

He turned around but I did see a small smile on his face as he walked away.

The class ended and I walked over to Dimitri.

"Sup Comrade, what was it you wanted to talk about."

"I honestly ask myself how you are turning 18 in a few months. Anyways I heard that you had a request from Princess Vasilisa's to become her guardian."

Wow news traveled fast.

"Yes, that's true." Where is he going with this?

"Well since that is a pretty big job I was asked to give you some extra sessions. Not only in fighting skills. Also more about dhampir, moroi and stigoi knowledge. Since you probably haven't learned all of it at a human school."

"Thats right, but I have done a home study and my brother goes to an academy."

"Well thats a start. But not enough. Are you prepared to really take this serious and become the official guardian of princess Vasilisa Dragomir?"

"I am."
Wow I never heard myself so serious. But I did really wanted this.

Soon I found myself training almost every free hours even some free periods from school training with Dimitri.

And honestly said. It was amazing.

I learned a lot but I got to know him a lot better as well.

One night I had actually won one of our fight and he asked me to go to a bar and have a drink.

Uhm I wasn't 18 yet and he knows. Right?

Unfortunately he did know and while Dimitri was getting pretty drunk I was still sipping my coke.

Dimitri's pov:

I do know this was a bad idea but I hadn't made a lot of friends since I was in this town. And Rose turns out to be pretty good company.

Wow it might be because of the booze but wow she looks amazing in this light. Wait who am I kidding. She always does.

Jeez all this time with Rose, I had found out that she actually was a lot smarter then she often showed and she somehow understood me. Sometimes even better than myself.

Apparently I had been staring since I of course got one of Rose's snarky comments.

"See something you like?"

"Might. And whats up with the nickname?"

Wait did I just say 'might' oh god. Why did I think it was a good idea to take Rose to a bar.

Rose's pov:

Wait what, did he just say he might see something he liked? I know I looked good but hearing something like that from Dimitri's mouth. That was something else.

Just when I wanted to open my mouth Sparky walked in.

"Hey Sparky! Might care to sit with us?"

"Yeah sure!" As he sat down next to me.

"Dimitri this is Christian, Christian this is my trainer Dimitri."

"Mister Ozera, honor to meet you." Dimitri said looking a bit sobered up.

How was it that he knew everyone? Or did I simply not know anyone.

"Hey you never told me your last name was Ozera."

"That my dearest Rose, is because you never asked."

There was some music playing but I saw a guitar on the podium. I stood up and walked over.

"Good evening yall, I'd like you to introduce you to my friend Christian he is new here. All the way for Europe. Wouldn't it be nice if he played something for us?"

Enough people started to clap and yell "Christian! Christian! Christian!"

So he finally came up. If looks could killed I would be overkilled by now.

But he did go on the stage. Took the guitar and surprisingly also the mic.

He started playing and it sounded amazing. Soon everyone was singing and clapping along!

(Yes I have always though about Christian having a sweet side)

For the last song he was actually singing one of my favorites. 'Shape Of You' from Ed Sheeran.

I got up and grabbed the other mic and started singing along.

The crowd goes wild!

At the end of the song we got an amazing applause and some free drinks from a nice bar guy.

We had a really fun night.

After we brought Christian home Dimitri walked with me to mine.

"Rose I know I don't say this often enough but I am actually really proud of you. And wow I didn't know you could sing so well. But about what I said at the bar, I know that was wrong.."

"Don't. I understand perfectly well."

As much as it hurts to admit that.

We didn't spoke much after that and I arrived safely. Thanked him and wished him goodnight.
