Well, some of you have asked me a few questions or are confused. So I'm going to clear that up.
disha aske me what Rose did to Cassandra. Rose didn't do anything to Cassandra, but there is something about Cassandra's past that involves Rose that makes her hate her that way. Please, bare with me, I swear that it will all clear up as the story goes on. Shauna asked me to write about Rose's sickness and I'm getting there. I assure you that in the next chapter you'll find out. Well, if there are anymore comments or questions, please ask me. I'll gladly answer them. Thank you so much for reading and please review, enjoy! :)

After that tense situation with Christian I headed toward the Gym for practice. Well, it was obvious that Cassandra had filled Christians head with ideas, just like she had with Lissa. Now I understood the looks and the whispers that people gave me when they saw me. Suddenly, I was forced into Lissa's head. She was in her room with no other than Cassandra.
"Lissa, you should have seen him. He threw her away like a rag doll. He practically screamed at her that the only one he loved was you and that he didn't care what people thought. That he was going to fight for you. It was so romantic, anybody can tell the its you he wants."
I could feel Lissa's happiness when she heard that Christian loved her and that he was going to fight for her, but his suppose betrayal tugged in her mind.
"Cassandra, I'm glad to hear all that, but that doesn't erase the fact that he cheated on my with Rose."
Cassandra's eyes widen in panic, but quickly recovered, going unnoticed by Lissa.
"Lissa, tell me something, are you really willing to lose Christian all because of Rose?"
"No, but -" Cassandra cut her off before she could say more.
"But Lissa, don't you realize that by confronting Christian that's exactly what's going to happen. You'd lose him and Rose will get what she wanted."
"Cassandra, I don't know…" Lissa still thought that what Christina had done was pretty big to forgive just like that.
"Lissa, don't you think you guys have been through so much, just to let it go to the trash? Remember back to every single fight and argument, or every obstacle you two have gone through. Are you truly willing to let it all fall to the ground because one person got between you two?"
Cassandra's words made her think back to the times people talked about her being with Christina. About how she almost lost him to Victors psi- dogs. She really did love him, and the way Cassandra put things did sound like it was a lot to give up, just because of me.
"You're right Cassandra. I love Christina and just like he is willing to fight for our love, so am I."
Cassandra got up from her seat in Lissa's couch and hugged Lissa tightly.
"I'm so glad Liss. I would hate to see you guys defeated after all you guys been through." When she let her go, Lissa said.
"Cassandra, I'd like to thank you so much for being there for me when I needed you. You're really proved to be a great friend."
"Lissa, you really don't know how much your words mean to me. I've never really had a friend I could trust before and for you to consider me a good friend means the world to me."
I decided I had seen enough. It hurt me to see that Lissa had forgotten so fast about me. It hurt me to think how fast she believed what others said and didn't even question it after so many years of being friends, practically sisters. I didn't know what to do anymore. Each time Lissa fell deeper and deeper into Cassandra's little game and I knew that as time passed it would be harder and harder to get the real truth out.
Once I got to the Gym I tried to forget everything. I knew the moment I walked threw those doors another problem awaited me and I wanted to be ready for whatever happened. As was expected, Dimitri was already there. The moment my eyes landed on him I felt nervous.
"Rose, we need to talk." I don't know why but I somewhat expected this to happen, I just wished that what he said next wasn't too bad.
"Rose, what has been happening between us is inexcusable and what happen the other day made me realize how wrong it is. I am your mentor and you are my student, nothing more. This situation has to stop." Through out his whole speech he kept is Guardian mask on and something about that just made me snap.
"So that's it? What about what we feel for each other? Doesn't that count for anything?" I yelled at him. I knew it was unfair to let all my anger out on Dimitri, but after everything that happened I couldn't keep it in any longer.
"Rose, what we feel doesn't matter. Plus, you are just a child. You don't know what you want. If we keep on the way we are doing, its bound to get noticed by someone and not only will it affect you, but me as well."
"So what are you going to do? Are you going to run away from all this?" I knew my words would anger him, but I didn't care. I wanted to see him snap, to rip that mask off his face. To see him lose control.
"No, I'm not going to run away as you say. I'm not a child, I'm an adult and I'll deal with this the way and adult would." His mask stood firm, but in his eyes I could see that it was taking some effort in his part to keep it that way.
"Oh really, and how would that be?"
"The way we treat each other will change. I am your mentor and you are my student, and our relationship will be strictly that. Mentor/Student." He turned around and walked towards the door.
"If I had a way to stop being your mentor and training you, believe me I would. But there is no way I can possibly stop. So from now on you will address me as you do to the rest of your teachers. You will address me as Guardian Belikov, and you'll only speak to me if it is school related. Is that understood?" He finally turned around and looked at me, waiting for my answer. His eyes had returned to their normal calm and collected state. He was serious about all this, I could see it in his eyes.
"Sure Guardian Belikov, I understand." There in his eyes I could see the change when I addressed him as he had told me to, but quickly return to normal.
"Good. You are excused from today's practice, we'll start again tomorrow morning." and with those last words he left the Gym.
After everything that had happen today the last thing I wanted was to go to class. So, that is how I ended up back in my room, my mind just going through everything that had happen over and over and over again. First it was Lissa, then Christian, and now Dimitri. How long would it be until he realized that hiding our feeling wouldn't help anything. Why was he so persistent to lying to himself and not just accepting the truth. He brought up the subject about me being a child and him an adult, but the way he was acting look more like the other way around.
I was going through all my problems once again when there was a knock at the door.
"Go away!" I screamed, I didn't have the energy to deal with anyone right now, especially if it was someone who was going to make me go to class.
"Little Dhampir, its me. Open up." On second thought Adrian sounded like good company right now.
"Come in!" I yelled.
"Little Dhampir, shouldn't you be in class?" he asked, giving me one of his evil, bad-boy smiles.
"Yes Adrian, I should, shouldn't I, but its obvious I'm not or will I go to class."
"Okay, okay, Little Dhampir. No need to get mad." He said as he sat next to me in the bed.
"I'm sure you've already heard about what happen, with the way news travels around here."
"You're right about that, by now the whole school knows about your little argument with Christian."
"Adrian, I don't know what to do. First it was Lissa and I had the hope that maybe Christian could help, but Cassandra got to him before I could and now he's all brainwashed too."
"Well, it seems as if Lissa and Christian have made up because they couldn't get their hands off each other.'
"Yeah, Lissa decided to forgive Christian of everything and to not to even mention what happened, to the convenience of Cassandra. Ugh! No matter how much I think about it I can't find a good reason why Cassandra is doing all this."
"Are you sure its her?" asked Adrian
"Yes, Adrian, I'm sure. Everything started to change when she came to the Academy."
"Yes, you are right. Now that I think about it things did start to change." He turned and looked at me.
"Don't worry, Little Dhampir, we'll get through this. Don't lose hope everything will be okay." I smiled at him, thankful that he was trying to cheer me up.
"Thanks Adrian."
We spend the rest of the day in my room, talking, doing whatever came to mind. Until a knock on the door interrupted us.
"Yes?" I asked. It was a small moroi girl.
"You have a note." she said and gave it to me.
"Thanks." I said, closing the door
"Whose it from?" asked Adrian.
"Its from Dr. Olendzki, she wants me to go to her office. Probably wants to give me the results of the test."
"Maybe now you'll find out why you got all dizzy yesterday."
"I'm sure it was nothing, just stress I guess. Well, I'll see you later. I'm going to go see what she wants."
"Alright," he said, "remember Little Dhampir, don't let them get to your head." and with that he left.
When I got to Dr. Olendzki's office there was no one there except for me and the receptionist.
"Dr. Olendzki called me." I told her.
"Oh yes. Go inside, dear. She's waiting for you."
Dr. Olendzki's office was like any other doctors office. Plain white walls, the row of framed diplomas, and a portrait of a vase with pretty ugly flowers.
"You called me Doc?" I asked when I walked in the room. Dr. Olendzki looked up from her desk and a strange expression crossed her face. A sympathetic expression, like if she felt sorry for me.
"Yes Rose, please take a seat, we need to talk."
