A/N: HAPPY NEW YEARS! Anyone make any new year's resolutions? Sorry I haven't updated in a while you all have Nicia to thank for that! (; She wrote the most amazing story called 'The Disease' it is totally amazing I couldn't stop reading it; if you haven't read it yet you def. need to (:

So I just read the Last Sacrifice, the final book in the Vampire Academy ): I know a little late right, but I couldn't bring myself to do it. Like it made the ending that much more real, anyways I read it and I was a tad disappointed in the way it ended with Rose and Adrian so I decided to make this chapter an all Adrian Point of View. I actually liked it better this way because it shows how crucial this dream is of hers. But don't worry most of this story will be in Rose's POV.

Read and REVIEW ((;

Disclaimer: Of course I don't own VA series because if I did, I wouldn't have ended their Adrian's and Rose's relationship like that… Poor Adrian.. ):

Chapter: 3 Little Liars

[Adrian's POV]

"Hello little Dhampir, I haven't seen that much of you today, how are you?" I spoke as Rose appeared in the dream.

She looked beautiful in her blue sun dress; I watched as she took in her surroundings. Her beautiful eyes lit up as she realized where we were. I knew she loved the beach and that's particularly why I always brought her here. I refrained from taking her hands in mine and running for the water. I had always wanted to, but the flirting stopped when he broke her heart. I knew better than to mess with her after that, and when I actually did see her –she'd only let me visit through her dreams- she seemed to have appreciated it. I still couldn't even fathom what he had done. He was everything to her, -grudgingly- I didn't even compare when it came to him in her mind. And he gave that all up –gave her up- just to make her happy. I didn't understand his reasoning and I didn't want to.

I still remembered when Lissa and I found Rose in the gym. I instantly knew it was him, the heartbreak was all over her Aura. The colors had been a blood red almost a black with so many shadows swirling in it. I had never seen a heartbreak so severe, I hadn't thought it could get that bad. But there it was and my little Dhampir was the one who was suffering from it and I was pissed. Once I dropped Rose off in her dorm, I ran to his room wanting his head on a platter.

…

I banged on the door hoping to possibly knock it down in the process. He opened the door slightly, and glanced at me. A look of relief flooded through him and he widened the door. I guessed he was expecting Rose and was glad it wasn't her. Well I was about to make him wish it was.

"What the hell did you do?" I spoke with as much venom as I could muster.

He looked at me warily, "It's not of your concern Ivashkov, please just leave me alone."

"The hell it isn't my concern!" I yelled, and he flinched. I hadn't seen him like this before, so vulnerable it was an odd look for a male dhampir and I almost felt sorry for him, almost. I looked in his room and four suitcases packed up the rest of the room looked bare.

I slowly put the pieces together. "You're leaving, that's why she's so upset you're not just breaking up with her. You're dropping her as a student." I said more to myself than to him but he nodded.

"Why?" I wondered, she wasn't a bad student, in fact she was top of her class, yes she was sometimes sarcastic and stubborn but that was what made Rose, Rose. I loved that about her and I knew Dimitri did too.

He stared at me for a while before answering, "I want to her to be happy."

What the hell?

I laughed at his illogical thinking, "I think you've got your emotions confused, what you really meant to say was I want Rose to turn into a depressed zombie, and make her life a living nightmare. Right that's what you meant to say because I think any chances of her being happy just packed up his bags."

His eyes gave a murderous look and for a second I was truly scared for my life. He grabbed me by the collar of my shirt and pushed me into the wall.

"I meant exactly what I said and I don't need you or anyone else to tell me I'm making a mistake, I will not have Rose hate me for the rest of her life because 'we' couldn't keep Lissa safe. All it takes is one glance in the wrong direction and it could be all over for Lissa." As he talked I saw dried tears on his cheeks.

He let me down and turned back to his door, I was about to come back with a few words of hatred when he looked back at me.

"And don't act like you care about me leaving Rose. She's free at the moment; you can now go after her. Not that you weren't already doing that anyway." He looked away but just before he did I saw the hurt that played on his face. I could tell how much this was hurting him just as badly as it was her. But I had too many other things to worry about, like say an available Rose to contend with. I walked away from his room in a better mood than I had come there with.

I stopped myself from thinking about the past and focused on Rose. She had a look that told me she was deep in thought but at the same time she was studying me. Really taking me in, not that I didn't like it but there was a point to this dream, I needed to check up on her.

"Rose?" I said bringing her back to reality, or well the reality that was this dream.

She seemed to think about something for a moment before speaking.

"I'm fine I was just really tired after training and classes. I met my new mentor today, he's alright I guess." She gave me a sad smile that put me on high alert. Something happened I was sure of it. I checked her Aura praying that she didn't remember Dimitri. I could handle anything else but not that.

It everything seemed normal but there were a little more shadows lurking in it than I would have liked.

I pulled her into my arms, "What's wrong, little Dhampir?"

"Nothing really," she spoke seeming sure. "I just had a strange dream and for some reason it's messing with my emotions."

I instantly relaxed. Dreams, that's all that was bothering her? No conflicting memories, no heartbreak? I almost jumped for joy. Lissa had me worried for nothing, she didn't believe the compulsion would work, that it would start to wear off, but it hadn't so far and I was hoping it would stay that way.

I gave her a smile and nodded my head toward the beach. "Let's take a walk and you can tell me all about this little dream of yours."

Once we got to the edge of the water she began to talk about her dream.

"Well first of all it wasn't like the normal kind of dreams I have," she started off looking towards the water. "It was like I was watching a movie of myself, rather than experiencing it. I was running around the track at the Academy, and I looked exhausted, as if I had been running for hours. I didn't look like I had at practice with Jake, and when it looked as if I wasn't going to make it anymore a beautiful Russian voice spoke to me."

Her words hit me like a thousand knives piercing through my back. Shit, Shit, SHIT. She was remembering him. What were we going to do? I didn't want her to go back to the heartbreak but I couldn't keep erasing her memory without causing permanent brain damage. No there had to some other way, I pulled out a cigarette hoping it would calm me. She seemed to take notice of my mood swing and stopped talking to ask if I was alright, I shook my head, letting her know I was fine and encouraged her to continue.

"I'm just so confused, I mean it sounds so familiar, but I can't remember where I've heard it before." She paused for a second then spoke so soft that if I didn't have my vampire hearing I wouldn't have heard it.

"Roza," she spoke.

I flinched when she said his nickname for her and she turned to with an almost hurt expression.

"Did I say something wrong?"

"NO," It came out as more of a yell so I paused for a brief second and gathered my thoughts.

"No, you never did anything wrong, you just reminded me of an old acquaintance that did something horrible to a friend of mine and it upset me. I'm sorry." I watched as she examined me and prayed that she wasn't going to call my bluff. After a moment she turned back to the water and sighed.

"It's alright," then as if my words had just registered she asked, "Hey, do I know this friend of yours?"

I had to smile at that, if only she really knew but I wasn't going to let that happen, ever. I grabbed her left hand and placed a soft kiss on her smooth skin, "not that I know of little dhampir."

As much as I didn't want to leave her I had to tell Lissa what I knew. If we didn't get this handled quickly her memories would come back and then Rose would be forced to live the heart ache again.

I began to end the dream when she looked at me with apprehensive eyes, "why are you leaving?"

"I need to go talk to Lissa, she was helping me with a little project I was doing." It wasn't a total lie; if you considered Rose as the project then it wasn't a lie at all.

I knew she was going to protest so before she could say anything else I ended the dream and opened my eyes. I looked around my room and found a pair of discarded jeans that I had worn earlier and pulled them on. Not really caring about how I looked for once I ran out the door to Lissa's dorm.

Getting inside was pretty easy as I only had to compel the dorm guardian to fall asleep, and walk up to Lissa's room.

I barely started knocking on the door when Lissa answered a little disoriented. But she sobered up as soon as she saw the look on my face, "What's wrong?"

"We need to talk, it's important." I said hoping my words sounded urgent but not too critical I didn't want her thinking the worst. She knew I was going to dream walk with Rose tonight and she made me promise that if anything bad happened I'd wake her up. Well now that I had I could tell she was freaked out.

"What happened?" She motioned me inside them room.

I wanted to tell her right then but I stopped myself. Rose could be eavesdropping and though I had no way of knowing for sure I didn't want to take any chances.

"Not yet." I spoke very carefully. "You need to put your block up first she could be listening."

She looked away for a moment and then spoke, "alright, what happened? Did the compulsion wear off?"

"Yes and no, she had a dream of Dimitri but doesn't have a clue as to who he is or why she's dreaming about him."

She gave me a puzzled look, "what exactly was the dream about?"

I heaved a sigh and begin telling her Rose's dream, it didn't take long but when I was done her eyes had turned into saucers.

"SEE! I knew this wasn't going to work, I said it but nobody listened to me." She rampaged up and down her little room.

"Lissa, we've got to find a way to keep her from remembering him." I spoke hoping she could concentrate on my words long enough to stop running a whole in her floor.

"NO, no, no we are not going to do anything. We shouldn't have tampered with her head in the first place. This was something God wanted her to go through, I feel like we helped her cheat." She shivered at that thought. Lissa was firm believer in God and the afterlife, and I had a feeling that what we had done to Rose had created more guilt in her than in the rest of us.

I looked at her with angry eyes. "We have to do something Lissa; I can't sit here and watch her go into depression again. I felt so helpless all those weeks of her crying to no end. I know you hated it too. Do you really want her to have to go through with that again? What if she can't get over it, you'll lose your best friend."

"Rose is one of the strongest people I know, she would've gotten through it if we hadn't have interfered."

I couldn't believe she was saying this, "You regret compelling her to forget Dimitri even though this past week has been the happiest we've seen her in months?"

Lissa didn't have time to answer because at that moment we heard a certain little Dhampir threatening to break the door down if we didn't let her in. Hmm, maybe I shouldn't have compelled that guard to sleep.

"Lissa quickly crossed the room and opened the door. Rose was dressed in boy shorts and a flimsy tank top which told me that she had woken up and came straight here, she crossed her arms over her chest and looked as both of us with dangerous eyes.

"Okay, what's going on? I know your hiding something from me and I'm not leaving until one of you tells me now."

Me and Lissa looked at each other franticly, neither one of us were prepared for this, we had all agreed that if Rose got suspicious and began asking questions none of us were to ever tell her what we did –even though she had been the one to orchestrate the whole thing.

"I told you Rose, I needed help with a project I was doing and Lissa was helping me." I tried to look as innocent as a preacher's son, but I could tell that she wasn't buying it and so could Lissa.

Lissa heaved a sigh that sounded like defeat. I held my breath hoping she wasn't going to spill, "Give it a rest Adrian, she's already suspicious enough." She turned from me and with her head held high she looked to Rose.

"The truth is, Adrian and I," she paused as if it was hard for her to get out the last part, "have fallen deeply in love and are secretly seeing each other."

My jaw dropped to the floor, that was not what I expected her to say. I almost would rather her to tell the truth, I didn't want Rose to think that I stole her from Christian. I actually liked Christian; we had become pretty close since we realized we had one thing in common. We both hated Dimitri.

I looked to see if Rose had bought the lie. She was staring intensely on Lissa, with a scowl on her face.

"When did this happen?" She asked. I didn't know if it was the lighting in the room or what but it seemed that Rose was looking a little jealous. This gave me another idea if Lissa's lie didn't work out.

"Um, I don't know Rose it just happened. I don't feel very comfortable talking about this right now."

This pissed Rose off, "you shouldn't feel comfortable at all! You're cheating on Christian, Lissa. What do you think this is going to do to him when he finds out? And he's going to find out because I'm going to-"

She stopped mid-sentence and looked to me for a second before turning back to Lissa. A slow smile crept up her face.

"You're getting better at that Lissa I almost believed you." She stopped talking for the moment and began to pace the room.

"What is so important that you would make me question your love for Christian rather than tell me?" She whispered to almost herself. Lissa took it as a rhetorical question and didn't answer, Rose just continued to pace.

Why she had been pacing I had went into the other room and made a phone call. Putting my plan into action, it was going to be tricky but I felt more confident in her believing this lie over Lissa's, though technically it wasn't going to be a lie on my part. But I wasn't going to tell anyone else that.

I stepped back into the room and Rose's head shot up; I guess she hadn't noticed my absence.

I took this opportunity to begin, "Alright little Dhampir, no more lies." Lissa looked at me as if she was about to protest but I gave her a stern look to shut up and focused in on Rose.

"It's true I wasn't exactly doing a project with Lissa but she was helping me with something else." I took a deep breath before continuing.

"You see, I'm still crazy about you little Dhampir, and though you shot be down time and time again I understood, but here lately we've become much closer. But I knew that if I just asked you out again you would turn me down saying you didn't have reciprocate those feelings for me. Though, seeing as how jealous you were when you thought Lissa and I were together, I have a feeling that's a lie. So if you'll just follow me out here."

I took her hand and led her outside. It was still nighttime for us and the sun was shining brightly she looked at me with a confused look but I just pointed to the sky.

There in the sky newly puffs of smoke from the back of a skywriter airplane were neatly written, "Little Dhampir, will you be mine?"

Yes it cost triple the amount to get it done so fast but I figured it was worth it.

She looked up at me and then looked to the sky again; I could see she was contemplating her choices. I kind of felt bad that I was asking this of her when she didn't even remember why she always had told me no. but contrary to Lissa's beliefs –who had been glaring at me ever since we walked outside- I wasn't just doing this for my benefit, sure if she said yes I would be the happiest man alive, but I also knew that if we were together it would help to keep her distracted and possibly stop the compulsion from wearing off.

She turned her body so that she was completely facing me, "I'm not sure right now Adrian, I need time to sleep on it. Is that alright?"

"Of course, take all the time you need." I smiled, glad she was at least thinking about it.

She went to Lissa and gave her a hug goodbye, with Rose not seeing Lissa's face she looked to me and mouthed, "We'll talk about this later."

Oh joy… I shrugged off my feelings of guilt and walked Rose to her dorm.

A/N: Sorry again about not getting this up sooner I should be posting chapter four in the next couple of days.

So what did you think of Lissa's lie? I was shocked too when she said that, but I figured she'd say anything to Rose to make sure she didn't find out.

What about Adrian's little plan to ask Rose out?

Do you think Rose is going to say yes? Or is her heart going to tell her no? Is it possible to love more than one person?

Anyways tell me what you think! (:

Lots of Love
