Vampire Academy belongs to Richelle Mead.
Every Rose has its Thorn
Guess We Didn't Learn the First Time.
I groaned when I woke up in the morning, remembering the night before.
That's your entire fault Rose.The voice in my head told me. I mentally told it to shut up and I got dressed. I put my dark blue skinny jeans and a nice red boob tube on. I put my shiny black ballet flats on and brushed my hair and teeth. When I was satisfied with my outfit, I put on some mascara and nude lip gloss.
Why do you care so much, Rose? Expecting to see someone, Rose?That annoying voice nagged again. I ignored it and left my dorm room. I walked to the cafeteria, looking for Christian or Lissa, but the only person I saw was…
Dimitri.
I walked over there, ignoring the obscenities the voice in my head was screaming at me.
"Hey, Dimitri. Mind if I sit here?" I asked, gesturing the plastic chair across from him.
"I was hoping you would, actually. I want to talk to you." He gazed up at me with his alluring, deep brown eyes. I sat down and he just stared at me.
"What we did was wrong." He broke the ice.
"You think I didn't know that? I went behind my boyfriend's back, you went behind your girlfriend's. I kissed my sister's boyfriend, you kissed your girlfriends sister. We are totally messed up."
"I know. But the thing is, I liked it. That's the problem. I think we need to go somewhere more private to talk about this." He gestured towards the now filling up cafeteria room.
"Agreed."
We walked to the gym room, hoping that it was empty. It was.
"Wait, Dimitri, people walk through here all the time. There's a store room that's always unlocked. Christian and I used to sneak in there." I suggested. He nodded and we went in the store room, which had boxing gloves, some training dummies, and a couple of sport mats piled up, so it looked like a mattress.
Dimitri and I sat down on the mats, and he took my hand in his.
"I really like you Rose. I know, I'm with your sister, and if the queen found out, they'd rethink you as becoming the next queen. But I don't care." He grabbed my face between his two hands and kissed me. First it was slow and sweet, but then it deepened and his hands started going lower and he lifted my shirt up.
I pushed him away.
"Dimitri, I really like you too. But this? Not now, or here." I said.
"It's okay, I know. I didn't want to go that far. But again, I felt a pull."
"So did I. But we have to keep this a secret Dimitri. And the best way to do that is to stay with Lissa and Christian."
"I know, I know. It's going to be hard." He pushed some hair behind my ear.
"But we'll have to risk it." We both stepped out of the store room and walked back to the cafeteria. But Lissa and Christian stopped us.
"Dimitri! I've been looking all over for you! Oh, hello Rose." She shot a nasty glare towards me, obviously jealous that I was with Dimitri.
"Where the hell were you?" Christian said coldly.
"Why should I tell you?" I replied, mimicking his cold tone.
"You're my girlfriend. What were you doing?" He grabbed my arm tightly.
"Christian! Dimitri and I went for a walk because Lissa and you were nowhere to be found!"
"Don't lie to me slut! What were you doing, huh? Sucking his cock?" His grip got tighter until it actually hurt. I couldn't help the tears that stared streaming down my face.
"Stop it Christian! You're hurting me!" I cried.
"Then maybe you should stop going around and trying to fuck anything that moves!"
Dimitri stepped forward.
"How dareyou speak to her like that! Did you even apologize for last night when you tried to make her out like a slut? No! She only ever says how happy she is to be with you, but you treat her like shit!"
"Stay the fuck out of this! You're just a good for nothing Dhamphir!" Christian spat.
I couldn't take it anymore. I lifted my hands, and a gush of wind came forward and knocked Christian over.
I whirled around and stormed off. I walked and I walked until I reached a cabin in the middle of the woods. I stepped inside, and, just like last night, cried until I felt numb.
A soft knock on the door interrupted, and I got up to answer it. But when I stood up, I saw several pairs of red eyes out every window.
Shit.
