A/N: Sorry I haven't updated in a long time… Just some very important personal stuff happening right now. I am glad everyone is enjoying the story so far. And yes I know Dimitri was being a little mean but what would you do if you lost the one you loved? Just for a tip there will be three points of views: Rose, Dimitri, and Lissa. This chapter was inspired by the song If I Die Young by The Band Perry. Also, I would like to say that I am posting another story called The Secret Girl. I hope you guys get a chance to read that story also. Happy Reading. ~ Lindsey Lee

Previously…
After everyone left I sat there and continued to cry.
"Rose, I love you. You are the sister I never had." I whispered to nothing.
"Rose I wish I could see you. I wish I could hear you. I wish you were here with me." I whispered again.
But like the first time, nothing happened.
"I love you, too." I faintly heard that night before I went to bed.
I sighed. Maybe she wasn't gone.
Chapter Two- Don't Forget About Me
While on this Earth you may feel unrecognized, like no one notices you. But in reality, you affect everyone every day. Some people die so they can be heard. But that's not all ways the best solution. If you can't be heard, speak louder. In the end, no one will forget about you.
Rose
"Andre, are you done yet?" I asked for the millionth time.
He insisted finishing his coffee slowly and peacefully. I was desperate to see what this place actually looked like.
"Relax, Rose. You'll be here forever. Why the rush?" He asked raising an eyebrow.
"I'm curious. Sue me." I murmured.
I could feel Lissa. It was like a slight buzzing feeling in the back of my mind. I tried reaching out to that feeling but I could reach it. Lissa now became unreachable. This was something I was not used to and I hardly enjoyed it. I secretly liked being able to keep tabs on Lissa even though she didn't like me doing it. It made me feel more comfortable to know she was safe. I sighed I almost felt slightly out of place. Andre continued to sit there. I swear he was doing it just to annoy me. I felt love through the bond and I could hear Lissa in my head, "I love you." I smiled. At least someone didn't forget about me.
"Alright let's go." Andre said standing up.
"Finally!" I exclaimed, jumping out of my chair and practically knocking it over.
He just shook his head and chuckled. We walked down the road a little bit as he pointed out shops along the way.
"Here is China Main." He pointed to a Chinese take-out store. "I figured you still love Chinese food. Right?"
I smiled as largely as I could.
"There is the pet shop, music store, and hardware store." He said motioning to the three stores side by side.
We finally stopped walking at a set of gates. I figured that was the limit of where you could walk. Andre walked up to a man near the gate and whispered something in his ear. The man looked at me with wide eyes and quickly nodded his head. He ran into a small building beside the gate and hurried out with a key ring. Andre walked back to me.
"Here is your room key. The room is fully furnished. Now, we need to talk."
…
Our talk lasted for several hours as he tried to explain how to talk to my friends and family that were still alive.
"Just reach for them Rose. Make them want to hear. Focus."
I nodded my head. I focused completely on Lissa. I missed her so much. I needed her to hear me.
"I love you too." I whispered to her.
And then I felt it. Through the bond I felt comfort and relief. I felt dizzy. Trying to talk to Lissa took a lot out of me.
"I'm gonna go to bed. Night Andre."
He kissed my cheek and left. I curled up in my new bed. She heard me. They'll finally listen to me.
Lissa
I awoke to someone banging on my door. I usually slept fine at night and I usually get up early. But not today. Not ever again. Not without Rose. The banging persisted and annoyed me to no end.
"What!" I growled as I swung open the door.
I know it was not princess like but I currently couldn't care less.
"Liss, chill. It's one. I just wanted to check up on you." Christian murmured wrapping his arms around me.
I started to sob. I clung to him with everything.
"How are you not sad?" I whispered staring up at him.
He shook his head and walked in.
"I rather not talk about my feelings. How are you Liss? This must be far from easy on you."
I nodded. He was right; this is hard on me.
"Christian, can I tell you something? Can I tell you something and you promise me not to tell anyone?"
He nodded his head, "What is it babe?"
I sighed and opened my mouth to speak. But I couldn't. I didn't want to seem like a nut job to my boyfriend. I sucked up my fear and tried again.
"You might think I'm crazy but you have to be completely open minded," I took a second to collect my thoughts while Christian replied.
"Go ahead." He whispered encouragingly.
"I heard Rose last night. She spoke to me. And I know it was four simple words. Nothing much but I heard it. Christian she told me she loved me. She still thinks of me as a sister. She can hear me." By now I was rambling on and on.
Christian shook his head as a look of confusion clouded his gorgeous features.
"I don't know what to think." He whispered.
