Rose POV

I sat on the windowsill in Adrian's Moroi history class, next to his, I changed out of the hideous turtle neck and covered it up with a scarf(after all it is winter). "Little Dhampir, it's not that bad" Adrian had said to me this morning, right, not that bad, bullshit. I tugged at the scarf and felt my sore neck. I looked out the window there wasn't any sign of 'Strigois', the other Moroi's Guardians wandered outside and circled the building.

I rested my head against the cool window and let out a sigh, I shut my eyes and thought back.

Flashback

After we started drinking…

"Wanna know how you're tempting me?" he pushed me up against a wall and put his arms out, giving me no chance of escaping. His pupils dilated the minute his eyes met mine.

"How?" I leaned closer to him, I felt his hot breathe on my skin, we were about 2cm apart and drunk.

"Hmm, let's see. 1. Your scent is intoxicating" he bent over and inhaled my scent as he worked his way down from my neck down to my shoulders. That really excited me, I was way too drunk to remember who Dimitri was.

He turned me around and we looked at our reflection from the mirror, he placed his left hand on mine, his free hand traced my exposed collarbone. Something about that really turned me on, I knew this was heading the wrong way, but I was way too smashed.

"2. Wearing a tank top that exposes so much skin doesn't help either" he whispered into my ear, I felt all tingly from his touch, I had a strong urge to kiss him right at that moment. I turned around, took in the sight of his gorgeous emerald eyes that was shining down at me, grabbed a handful of his shirt and pulled him to me, crushing my lips against his, our wild sides took over.

The kiss was full of passion, desire and lust. Our tongues met as it got deeper, we broke apart and gasped for air and continued a few seconds later.

He lifted me up against the wall and I wrapped my legs around him, a hand slid down my back as the other one made it's way up my shirt, he began sucking on my lower lip and a moan escaped from my lips, I grabbed a handful of his hair as I threw my head back in pure bliss and pleasure when he kissed my neck.

Adrian POV

I sat in my boring Moroi history, I guess I could endure all the shitty subjects since my Little Dhampir is going to be with me till graduation. Graduation… my mind wandered, she's going off with Lissa by the end of school, and I'd probably never see her again. As if any of them would contact me after we leave, but for now, I'll 'live it up' like my Little Dhampir told me to last night during our walk back to my room.

Hmm…my room, my thoughts strayed back to last night.

We were lost for words, we were drunk, and we just stared into each other's eyes, wondering if that really just happened. I managed to take her tank top off during out steamy make-out session, well to be precise, I tore it off, she had a black bra on underneath, her very hot short shorts were still on though, it was hard to take my eyes off her.

After all the touch and kisses we shared it wasn't enough to satisfy our animal sides, I didn't even push her for sex, I know even I'm shocked, she didn't look like she was ready to start something with me and she's different from the other girls, I don't want to lose her trust or our friendship. So this was good enough for now.

But this'll all be a faded memory by tomorrow… Hopefully I'll remember most of it, we gulped down more vodka.

My mind came back to the room, I looked up at Rose, her head was leaning against the icy window, she was staring out, then she flinched and the look on her face was full of anger and despair.

Rose POV

Flashback(after they passed out)

It hurt to open my eyes, I could hear voices from outside, but it might have just been the killer headache I was having from my hangover. Wait…why do I have a hangover? I was on top of someone warm and he/she smelt familiar.

I lifted my head up to find and saw shreds of what looked like my tank top then I looked at the person's face below mine and saw someone who looked vaguely like Adrian Ivashkov.

I jumped on the couch and curled up in the corner of it, stunned, why was I on top of Adrian? What happened last night? I had a cold shower and changed. I went back to the living room and sat on a couch and I decided to wake Adrian up, after all he has school.

Adrian POV

Flashback (continuation)

"Adrian?" someone was shaking me. This maid is so getting fired.

"Adrian? Wake up." That was no maid, that's my Little Dhampir's voice. I opened my eyes and she was hovering over me, I smiled and thought back about the events from last night, I remembered it all so clearly, I'm probably immune to 'loss of memories' from hangovers due to the fact I used to have hangovers everyday.

I grabbed her around the waist and rolled on top of her, I stared at her beauty. She made a face and pushed me off.

Rose POV

Flashback (continuation)

"What the hell, Ivashkov? Didn't you violate me enough last night?" I snapped, my neck felt sore.

"Do you even remember what happened last night?" he ran a hand through his hair while smiling like a kid at Toys'R'Us. He's been grinning like that ever since he woke up.

"No…not really but I have a good idea of what might've, why the fuck does my neck hurt so much" I yelled back at him. He pointed to the bottles of vodka next to the couch. We drank vodka? Shit, those aren't bites are they? Adrian wouldn't dare... I walked to the nearest mirror, I can't believe I didn't see this in the bathroom, even foundation and concealer won't help cover this up.

"How the fuck am I meant to cover this up Adrian?" I shouted and pointed to my neck then shoved my face in a cushion, "We can always wag classes till it's gone" Adrian smirked at me, I sighed and shook my head. Bits of last night's event slowly came back to my head. Part of it was: My legs wrapped around Adrian, my back against the wall while he did that during our make out session.

"Memory of last night's events returning to that pretty little head of yours?" he smiled innocently and pushed me up against the couch, it seemed familiar.

I thought hard, with Adrian hovering over me on the black leather couch. Then it came to me, we made out on the wall and the couch while we were drunk, full of desire, lust and hunger.

Rose POV (back in the classroom)

I sighed, I caught Adrian taking glances at me, we hadn't spoken or made much eye contact since last night. It wasn't really that bad like Adrian said but we kept our distance for some odd reason.

I looked out the window and saw Dimitri walking with Tasha Ozera, her hands in his, they looked happy, they were talking and laughing.

She was smiling…

He was smiling…

They were both fucking smiling…

I thought angrily, he's never looked that happy with me before, we never have fun or have sweet moments like he's having with Tasha fucking Ozera right now. I clenched my fist, I felt childish, like a kid who's possessive of her toy, in this case it's Dimitri. The day dragged on till dinner, we had some nice ravioli from the cafeteria, Eddie was munched away happily, Mia sort of looking at my neck, Christian was being occupied by Lissa, Adrian was just silent, which was odd. He kept asking me whether I was alright which was weirder.

Lissa pulled me up to her room, Guardian field training was off after dinner, Lissa pulled out a beautiful costume for me. It was kind of a Marie Antoinette inspired dress but it was a short cocktail length dress, it was hot. Maybe a bit too revealing to be worn around Adrian, but he'd already seen me half naked last night.

I wore a pair of black lacy flower patterned hosiery with it and a nice black pair of heels with a bow on it, my mask was black and it was pretty cool. You can tell I'm not really in the mood for this masquerade.

"So, about you and Adrian…he didn't…you know…do stuff… did he?" Lissa looked up with concern as she worked my makeup, I replied with a sigh.

"We just got sorta drunk and made out and stuff, nothing big ok?" I mumbled.

"Did he…bite you?" she gasped and reached for my neck, the scarf is still on I looked like a complete douche, but she stopped short because she thought it might be invasion of privacy.

"No for God's sake, you think he'd still be living and breathing if he did?" I snapped, I can't believe everyone assumed that I'd turn into some cheap bloodwhore for Adrian Ivashkov, the biggest teenage womanizer in the Moroi world.

I pulled the scarf off, which revealed 4 hickeys on my neck, glad that they weren't bites but how the fuck was I meant to cover this up?

"If you're going to say it's not that bad then don't because Adrian already did like 5 times, I know it isn't bad and I've had hickeys before, also been way further with make out sessions that we did last night but it's Adrian Ivashkov, which is probably why I'm acting all cranky" I finished, that wasn't the whole reason.

"Thank God…I just thought…never mind" Lissa's eyes widened.

"Well, we've got a party to go to" I tried to get Lissa excited again, and it worked. We made our way out of her room and Christian joined us shortly, followed by Adrian, who was looked dashing in his costume, the devil…how ironic. Christian looked like the biggest idiot in his costume, but he's not into these events which probably explain why he looked like a retard, next to Lissa who was elegant in her dress.

We got to the building the ball was held at, Eddie and Mia was standing outside the doors for us. Eddie and Mia were dressed casually, for a masquerade, they just wore evening outfits and brought a mask that matched their clothes. Her blonde curls were styled, Eddie's hair was gelled back and reminded me of some James Bond movie.

It was time for the first dance, I looked scanned around for Dimitri.

"Hey, I'm your date, don't wander off to look for Belikov" Adrian tightened his grip on my hand as he spoke bitterly.

"Sorry" I muttered. Only Lissa and Christian danced, the rest of us drank our champagnes and talked about the 'last dance' conspiracies/legends/myths, whatever you want to call it.

If something bad happens to you during the ball, you might get something good out of it. Right…as if I'd believe that shit. Last dances were saved for the person you loved, this was like Valentine's Day or something. I shuddered at the thought of what Adrian did during Valentine's Day.

He bought a million red and pink paper love hearts that said 'Adrian and Rose forever' and hung them off the ceiling of my dorm, the floor was filled with rose petals and there was like 'a bouquet' of roses (more like 365 than 'a bouquet'). He was like my personal obsessed, psychopathic, sex maniac. He ran around screaming "I love you, Rose Hathaway" all day, which made rumours fly for a few weeks according to Lissa, he paid everyone off to stop the ridiculous ones, in relation to me.

"Save the poor devil your last dance?" Adrian added with a wink. Hah, even though I'm not one to believe superstitions but just incase it might be true, I don't want people believing that Adrian and I love each other since that's the purpose of the 'last dance'.

"Where are you going?" I jumped out of my seat and looked at him questioningly. "I'm going out to have a smoke, care to join? You don't have to smoke of course, you can just enjoy the view with me." he smiled tenderly.

"Have fun with yourself" I waved goodbye to him, Eddie snorted a laugh. Then Lissa and Christian stormed back to our table and got into a little argument. It was pretty confusing, here's the story.

Some drunk guy hit on Lissa while she was getting a drink, Christian interrupts and he was bout to knock him out but Lissa stopped him and now he's upset.

Guys and their stupid egos.

"This is fucking stupid and childish, you guys have the chance to be together, no one is keeping you apart and you don't have any restrictions for being in love with each other!" I snapped, a moment later I realised I was talking about the relationship between Dimitri and I.

"I'm sorry, just make up ok? I'm going to get some air…" I sighed. Woah, major snappage there. It was probably the spirit and Dimitri issue getting to me, I was about to open the French doors when Adrian burst through the door, he looked pretty pissed.

"Hey, I think I'll take you up on that offer" I tugged his sleeve and walked towards the door, I reached for the doorknob but Adrian grabbed me by the wrist and shook his head.

"Hey, let's go dance" he smiled, I could tell he was forcing that smile.

"What's wrong with going outside?" I questioned.

"If you want to go outside…we can go somewhere else" he started walking me in the opposite direction, he was trying to get me away.

"What are you trying to hide, Ivashkov?" I was serious now, I turned back and reached for the door but Adrian pulled me back and kissed me, there was pain in his eyes.

"No, stop" I tried to pushed him and his attempts to distract me off but he deepened it hoping that I would give in.

"Adrian Ivashkov! Stop it!" and he sighed in defeat. My head was calling out for Dimitri, I wish Dimitri was here...

"Rose, just for the record, I tried..." Did he just call me Rose? I walked around Adrian and opened the door, he followed after me.

I just froze instantly…


M83 - Too Late

I look into your eyes
Diving into the ocean
I look into your eyes
Falling!

Like a wall of stars
We are ripe to fall

And if you are a ghost
I'll call your name again
And if you are a ghost
I'll call your name...

You, always.
