A/N

Hi guys, I know the summary sucks, but I really hope you would give this story a chance; it's a lot better than it sounds. Please don't read if you haven't read books from the Bloodlines series, may contain spoilers! Consider yourself warned! X :d

Home is where you are.

Chapter 2.

We walked hand in hand across court to Lissa and Christian's house, when suddenly something strucked me as off.

"Comrade," I started, "why didn't you wake me for training this morning?"

Dimitri shook his head.

"Rose, you've been restless all night. It was only this morning that you settled down."

Restless? I was confused. I felt great. Actually, I felt better than I had in a while. It was usual for me to throw the alarm clock across the room, it was just who I was. I just hated the mornings but once I was up and had had my cup of hot chocolate, then I was fine.

Luckily any more conversation about last night ended as we arrived at Lissa's. The smell of Pyro's bacon wafted out to us. I opened the door and walked in like I owned the place. And in a way, I guess I did. This place was like a second home to both Dimitri and I. We rarely had dinner at home. Dimitri was an amazing cook and he prepared food for me too, just not at home. Dimitri and Christian had gotten close since he was Dimitri's charge after all. They spent time making us dinner. Seems like all of my friends could cook while I would burn water if given the chance.

"Rose!" Lissa said. I blinked. I hadn't realized she was standing there.

"Hay Lis."

"You okay?" she asked,

"Fine." I responded.

"Hay Rosie, want some bacon?"

"Sure Pyro Just after I kick your ass for calling me Rosie!"

Lissa shook her head.

"You guys, break it up! We're late. If we don't be careful, we would miss our ride!"

I stuck my tongue out at her. She was like Dimitri. Always interrupting our fun. Grabbing a plate full of Bacon and eggs, I sat down to stuff my face. Christian's bacon was the best. He would wrap anything with bacon. I remember there was this time back at St. Vlads he made meat loaf and wrapped it in bacon.

"You ready?" I asked Lis,

"Yeah. Oh Rose! Isn't this exciting?" I plastered a fake smile on my face. Lissa had this council meeting today but they had to leave court in order to get to the place.

"Exciting!" I Imitated. I didn't like that she had to leave court but I couldn't do anything about it. Lissa had worked hard to make both the Moroi and dhampir society what it was today. I couldn't ask her to skip out on a council meeting.

Lissa was a teacher for the spirit users at the court. Christian together with Jill and Mia taught defensive magic. Dimitri and I together with Eddie taught the Moroi combat. Adrian sometimes helped Lissa out with spirit but he was more of an art teacher. Since there wasn't many spirit users, Lissa taught at the court's preschool. Aside from our tutoring jobs, Dimitri, Eddie and I were still guardians. We still had to check the Court's perimeters and of corse, we had to accompany our charges whenever they left the protection of the wards. Eddie was Jill's guardian.

Soon we arrived at the court's garage where a black SUV waited for us. We all piled in to the waiting car and were off.

A/N hope you enjoyed this chapter! I know nothing serious happened! But this is still kind of the introduction to the story! Stay tuned! All the drama would take place in due time!
