Thanks for all the great reviews, but sadly only one person gave me an idea for new character. Come on people! Use your imagination! But...even if you don't I still love you all!


Finally we got to my crappy motel room. They had insisted on walking me to the door. I opened the door and invited them in. They looked shocked.

"Sorry about the crappiness of the room. Its all I can afford." They looked at me like I had grown a second head. "What? Is there something on my face?"

"Rose honey, where are your parents?" Lissa's mom asked.

"Don't have any. I was in foster care since I was 5 months old. When I was 12 I got tired of moving from home to home. None of my foster parents gave a shit about me and I hated them too, so I ran away. Been on my own ever since."

"Oh honey. How old are you?"

"16."

"You've been alone for 4 years?"

"No. I've been alone my whole life," I stated, slightly saddend. But I was used to it.

Tears came to both their eyes. Then Mrs. Dragomir pulled me into a tight hug. Then she said, "Rose come with us. With us you can have a home."

I pulled back to look at her face. "But I have a home." I was confused. Yeah I know, big shocker.

"No Rose. You have place to live. A home is a place were you can feel safe and are loved. Your home is something that is a part of you." She looked down at me. Her eyes were full of love and compassion.

Moving back into her embrase I said, "Okay."

After I had packed all my stuff, we went home, Lissa showed me the entire house, then I finally got to my new room. It was bigger then my old place times two. I had a huge king size bed. It had enough pillows to bury me completely. They were pitch black. The comforter was over stuffed with down, making it huge and fluffy. It was a beautiful blood red. I also had a huge walk-in closet. My clothes didn't even fill 1/20th of it. Plus I has a balcony, a flat screen, and my own bathroom. The bathroom was huge too. It had a shower and right next to it, a tub the was gigantic. It was almost the size of my bed.

"ROSE!" Lissa called me and I ran down stairs.

"Ya Liss?" She smiled at my new nickname for her.

"I want you to meet my dad and my brother. Rose this is my dad, Eric, and my brother, Andre. Daddy, Andre, this is Rose. She will be living with us now. She is part of the family."

"Hello Mr. Dragomir, Andre."

"Hey," her brother said. He was actually kinda cute. But not really my type.

"Rose please, call me Eric. Like Lissa said, you're family now." I smiled up at him. God,I was the shortest person here. The woes of big 5'7".

"So Rose tomorrow is Sunday so me, you, and mom are going shopping!"

" Well I really don't have any money, but I can come and tell you what looks good for you. If you want."

"None sense. You name it and its yours. Its the least I can do."

"But you cant just buy me a load of new clothes. That's unfair. Its not right."

"Don't worry about it. I'm loaded. Besides you need new clothes for school. You'll be the hottest thing to step on to St. Vlad's High campus. So go shower and get into bed. By the way, you have blood on your shoulder. Are you okay?"

"Yeah. Its from the guy. It got on me when I broke his nose."

"Oh yeah. I forgot, my best friend's a scrapper."

"Best friend?" I was shocked.

"Weird isn't it. I think of you as my best friend, my sister even. I've only known you for a few hours but I feel like I've known you my whole life."

"I know exactly what you mean."


Review Please! and please try to come up with a character for me. If you do I'll love you FOR-E-VER!
