Lissa's POV

After Christian had left I had more time to think about everything that had happened. How could Rose do this to me! Now both of my guardians were gone. Who all knew about this? Did everyone know about this? Could I seriously trust Christian? My questions came to a halt when I heard someone knocking on my door. I crept over to it trying to wipe all the tears off my face while I went.

I opened the dorr and Adrian was standing there with his hands stuffed into his pockets and was looking at the floor. "What do you want?" I sneered at him.

"God. You seriously are in a bad mood today." He replied kinder then I think I had ever heard him in my life.

"Well you wouldn't get it." I replied still being awfully mean to him.

"Your very dark today." He said to me. Damn what the heck was he doing! Was he seriously just trying to make small talk to me till I dies of boredom?! I didn't realize how long we had been standing there when he finally got back to his usual cocky self asking "Are you gonna let me in cuz?" I sighed with defeat and opened my door wider to let him in.

He came in and I got cocky with him. "Why are you here?" Before I could rant on anymore, he just had to intrupt me.

"Didn't Rose come to you too?" His series voice was back and he was looking at the ground again. I was taken back.

"What do you know about Rose?" I asked staring him in the eye. There was a coldness in my voice that he had probably never heard before. He tore his eyes away from my gaze and fidgeted with his rings. Why was he so nervous? This so was not like him!

"Probally as much as you do." He said choosing his words very carefully.

"And that much would be…?" I asked my voice barely above a whisper.

"Okay." I said and exhaled loudly. "Ill start with everything I know. First off, Ive known for a while about Rose and Dimitri being in love with each other." I opened my mouth to say something, but no words would come. I thought back for a minute while Adrian waited to see if I would talk. Just then did I realize, that if I had been paying attection to ANYTHING Rose did, then I would have noticed it sooner too. When I didn't talk, Adrian continued. "Then, I also know she has dropped out. I know she went to kill the love of her life. I know you are kinda pissed at her for leaving you when she is supposed to be your guardian. I also knows she feels really bad about that, but that she thinks this is more important. I know that she is going to be okay. I know that she has plenty of money and she is going to return. I know much more then you give me credit for." He finished and I started in shock. I had never heard him give a speech like that before.

"Surprised I know so much?" He asked and chuckled slightly. All I could do was nod my head with my thought threatening to explode. How does he come up with all this information?

"Wait?" I said after a few minutes of my thoughts overlapping each other. "How does she have money? Sure she had some cash put away, but not nearly enough." I could tell by the shift of his weight and the dancing of his eyes that he had done something.

"Well," He started and hesitated. I gestured his along with my hands so he took a deep breath and continued. "She came to me, asking for a small amount of cash to help her with her mission. She was a total wreck. How could I have told a girl like her no?" He smiled his crooked grin, but was still playing with his hands. "So I set up an account for her. She has all the information and I can see where she is withdrawing the money. Then whenever she gets low I can help her out and give her some more."

I was processing this over in my head when another thought occurred to me. "But how do you know she will come back? I mean, If she does somehow manage to survive this suicidal mission, why would she come back here? She dropped out and I have never heard of someone going back to school to graduate and become a guardian." A flicker of fear crossed his face. Just then did I see how deeply he cared for Rose. She may be in love with Dimitri, but Adrian is in love with her.

"She promised." He whispered so silent I wasn't sure I heard him right, but luckly he repeated it more loudly this time. "She promised me. She promised that when she was done, she would come back. She is gonna give me a chance."

He sounded so confident, I almost felt sad about breaking his ego. "How do you know she wasn't just lying?" I asked as kindly as I could manage. I felt as if I was talking to my brother. He seemed not to care though. He brushed that thought aside.

"I believe her. You weren't there. She was telling the truth. She doesn't know what exactly she wants yet, but she is cindering me." He was a pretty good liar I gotta admit, but I could still see the worry in his eyes. I decided that I had better drop the subject. I could tell that he was also sore about this thing. But why should he be sore?!

"Why are you even sad about this?" I asked him staring deep into his eyes.

He shrugged. "I love her." He said simply.

I waited for him to say something else, but when he didn't I talked again. "But she doesn't love you back." I said simply. It was a basic fact. She was still in love with Dimitri and wouldn't be over him for a while, if she ever got over him.

"Not yet at least." He said and his eyes bore into mine. "But, I AM going to wait. She will love me. She will." He repeated it a couple more times. I could tell he was still trying to convince himself that. "Who all knows?" He suddenly asked out of the blue.

"Um…" I stuttered and thought for a moment. "Well, I and you do, of course. Then I told Christian. Then anyone else who figured it out…" I trailed off.

"How many people do you think figured out their little secret? They were really serious." He shook his head slightly. Man I seriously had not known Rose since we had come back! He didn't even notice my change he just kept on talking. "I mean, come on, what all do they know? What all can we share with everyone else? How would people react to it? I mean, come on they are some of the best guardians and don't seem like the type of people to go against everything they know and fall in love with each other." He stopped his blabbing there and so I started.

"I do not know." I said while throwing my head into my hands. "I seriously have no idea what to think anymore. What I want to know is whats the story Rose gave for leaving? Please tell me she told you what her story was?"

He shook his head slowly. "She didn't." He suddenly smiled and my stomach twisted into knots. What was he thinking of doing now? "That's what we can do!" What I was confused. He was literally beaming now and he wasn't even sharing!

"What can we do all of the sudden?" I asked curiously. This was new.

"We can sneak around. You know like get info on what everybody knows about her disappearance. Find out her cover up story. Get all the juicy details to find out what we can tell!"

I was completely stunned. Yet another brilliant speech. He was doing good today! "As much as I hate to admit it, that's a really good idea!"

"Okay then, so its settled?" He asked being his usual self again.

"Yea" I said agreeing and shaking my head up and down. "Over the next couple weeks. And we should also write down everything that we learn."

"Okay." He agreed and headed toward the door. "I'll see ya in 2 weeks." He opened my door and left, banging it on his way out. I sighed and laid against my bed. What had I gotten into?

A/n: Again sooo sorry for the long wait but I hope you guys liked it! just think it was worth it! But now I need some help…What kind of information should they find out? What exactly does everyone know? All that type of stuff! Please help me you can tell me in reviews, Pms, or email just help me out!!
