Chapter Three

Oh shit! This cannot be happening! Dimitri and I stepped apart and slowly turned to see who had caught us. I can't believe that we had gone 6 months without anyone knowing except Lissa of course, and one minute of stupidity it was all over.

Stood in the doorway of the ladies bathroom was Mia.

"So what do we have going on here?" she asked, even though it was pretty obvious what was going on seeing as she saw me kiss Dimitri and say I love him. Neither of us knew how to answer the question. We stood there a moment longer the tension so thick you could cut it with a knife.

"Well I better get going?" Dimitri said it more like a question. He gave me a kiss on the head, nodded to Mia and walked off round the corner looking back over his shoulder at me as he went.

"We should go meet Tasha and your Mum" Mia sad flashing me an evil smile. She turned on her heel and walked back towards the car park. I had to talk to her, maybe if I explained she would understand. But being the bitch doll she is I would probably be made to beg, but I was Rose Hathaway nobody makes feel threatened, it was always the other way round.

"So Mia, about Dim-" I started

"Save it Rose, This is where you ask me not to tell anyone about you and the Cradle robber" Mia said

"He's not a cradle robber, he loves me" I said started to get angry at this point.

"I'm sure he does," she said rolling her eyes. I just stared at her not knowing what to say. Luckily we had reached Tasha and my Mum so I didn't need to.

"Hi honey, did you have fun with Lissa?" Mum greeted me.

"Uh yeah" I said, she looked surprised by my short answer and was about to ask for more details when Mia interrupted.

"Lissa bought a great dress, Didn't she Rose?" Mia gave me an evil smile.

Great not only could she tell my parents about my relationship with Dimitri, but she was going to taunt me. Oh God I hate her so much right now! In the car on the way back home I got my phone out and texted Lissa.

Lissa, I need 2 talk 2 u. It's important!

Love Rose xxx

A minute later I got a reply.

Okay Shall I come 2 urs?

Love Lissa xxx

"Mum its okay if Lissa comes over later right?" I asked. I knew she would say yes, she loved Lissa and thought I should behave more like her. It was never going to happen.

"Sure, ask her if she wants to stay for dinner" she said.

Lissa, Be at my place 5:30pm

Love Rose xxx

Tasha dropped Mum and me back off at home while her and Mia went to go change for dinner. I ran upstairs and threw my shopping bags into corner and ran back downstairs to wait for Lissa. 10 minutes there was a knock on the door.

Half an hour had passed and I was sat crossed legged on the bed facing Lissa.

"So let me get this straight, Mia knows about you and Dimitri?" she asked for about the tenth time.

"Yes" I said

"Are you absolutely sure?" she questioned. Lissa and I were practically sisters but right now she was getting in my nerves.

"For the hundredth time, Yes Mia knows!" I was practically shouting by this point.

"No need to shout, I was just checking" she looked offended.

"Sorry Lissa" I apologised.

"Its okay, maybe Mia won't tell anyone," she said sympathetically.

"And why would she do that, she hates me" I asked.

"Maybe she will hit her head on the way over and forget everything" Lissa said, her jokes were never really funny. I groaned and flopped back down onto my bed.

"I'm gonna die!" I declared. Lissa laughed, out of the two of us I was always the drama queen.

The door flung open and in walked Adrian as if he owned the place.

" Adrian do come in, no need to stand there in the doorway, make yourself at home!" I said sarcastically.

"Don't mind if I do," he flashed me his trademark lazy grin. He sat down on the bed between Lissa and me.

"So what are you guys talking about?" he asked as he lit one of his cigarettes. I wrinkled my nose in disgust.

"We were busy discussing the disgusting smell of your cigarettes before you decided to grace us with your presence!" I said sarcasm dripping from my words. He rolled his eyes.

"Some people think they make me look sexy" he said, winking at Lissa. Lissa looked down and started playing with the duvet. Lissa blushing? There was something she wasn't telling me.

"Well I think you smoke so you have something to do while your thinking up your next witty line," I said. Adrian chocked on his cigarette and Lissa shot me a grateful smile. She will have some explaining to do later.

Half an hour later we were all sat around the dinner table eating the Moroccan lamb that my Dad had cooked for us. Mia who was sat directly opposite me flashed me an evil smile and said "So Rose who was that guy I saw you with earlier?"

Everyone looked at me curiously except Lissa and surprisingly Adrian.

"He's no one just a friend" I said hopping they wouldn't ask for too much details.

"He was pretty hot, I mean tall, dark ponytail, faint Russian accent" she said, knowing that Dimitri looked exactly like his dad, she also knew my dad and Dimitri's dad hated each other. They were both successful business men; respected by all, if you would call it respect most people would say that it was fear. Not many people knew what they did, I didn't even know. It was probably something dangerous and illegal.

"He's one of them Belikov's isn't he?" She asked innocently.

"What!" my dad gasped chocking on his wine.

"You guys looked a little bit more than friends" Mia said ignoring my dad's outburst.

"What have I told you about staying away from that family!" Dad yelled. I rolled my eyes, dad thought that the Belikov's would try use me to get to my Dad.

"From now on you do not leave this house!" I looked over at my mother for help, but she just gave me a look that said do what you're told. Parents are useless!

Tasha, her fiancée Ambrose and Mia made there excuses and left.

"Dad, you're being totally unfair!" I pleaded.

"Rose go to your room and wait until I come back from taking Lissa home" he said as he grabbed his car keys and headed for the front door. Lissa gave me a hug and followed my dad out the door. I sighed and headed up to my room slamming the door shut behind me.

Dimitri's POV

I knew my little sister Victoria was meeting Rolan. Everybody knew he just used girls and lefty them. Did she really want to be just like those other girls?

I stood outside the Nightingale, wondering how I was going to get her out of there without her hating me forever.

"Rolan knows me, he will walk away and never look for her again if I tell him to" said a voice.

I turned around to see Abe Mazur standing in the shadows.

"And why would you do that?" I asked suspiciously

"We could make a deal" he said. Okay now we were getting somewhere, Abe Mazur didn't do things for other people unless there was something for him to gain in return.

"What kind of deal?" I asked

"How about I will help your sister if you stay away from my daughter" he said.

He wanted me to stay away from my Roza; it would kill me not to see her smile. But my dad would kill me if Vic got hurt. I was being made to choose between my sister and my Soul mate! I sighed.

"Just get my sister out of there" I said trying desperately to hold back my tears. I wasn't going to let him know he hurt me. He wasn't allowed that satisfaction.

I am so sorry it's been ages, but I will try to update more quickly in future. I had trouble trying to write certain parts of this chapter. Please review I want to know what you think.
