Okay guys, here's just a little note to clear up some confusion.

Dimitri and Rose are going to be together. I like Adrian, but lets face it, him and Rose together is just plain… wrong. Sorry if anyone likes Adrian and Rose, but I will never write a story in which they end up together. So you don't have to worry, all will work out for Dimitri and Rose.

Okay so now for the disclaimer:

I do not own Vampire Academy. It belongs to Richelle Mead.

And, now to get to the story, hope you like it!

"Wait, what exactly do you mean when you say, 'we are not allowed to be together'," I asked, probing for any loopholes I could find.

"Good question, little dhampir. I mean that unless I agree to it, you two can not do as much as kiss." Adrian said, his smirk growing by the second.

"But what's a kiss on the cheek, I mean, friends do it all the time." I said, and again, Adrian's smirk grew.

"You never kiss me on the cheek. Maybe if you did, I would see kissing as more of a friendly thing, and let you and Belikov kiss. But seeing as how you've never kissed me, I guess I can't really allow it." He said, now taking out and lighting a cigarette.

"Roza lets just go, he's obviously had too much to drink, or he's high." Dimitri said, helping me out of the pool.

"On the contrary, this is my first cigarette of the day, and I have not had anything to drink." Adrian said proudly.

"Well that explains a lot," I said, "he's got a case of the crazies." Dimitri laughed at my comment, and then we went inside, ignoring whatever else Adrian had to say, not taking him seriously.

The next morning (I'll just call it morning, they're on a vampire schedule, so it's really night.) , we woke up in each others arms. We had the day off Guardian duties, seeing as we were still getting settled. Dimitri and I had worked out a plan: If Adrian was serious; he would switch with Eddie and become Christians Guardian, because Christian surely wouldn't have a problem with them being together.

We went down and ate breakfast, only to find that everyone except for my mother was still asleep.

"Good morning," she said to us as we were coming down the stairs, hand in hand.

"Morning mom, you're up early," I said to her as I noticed she was… cooking? "You cook?" I asked.

"Of course I do," she stated, she then went on to saying, "The early bird catches the worm, or in this case, gets first pick on the eggs." She laid out two plates, one in front of me, and one in front of Dimitri, and then put two strips of bacon on each of our plates.

"Thank you very much Guardian Hathaway," Dimitri said to my mother.

"Mom, what's got you so happy?" I asked, then remembered my manners and said, "And thanks for the eggs."

"You're welcome. And well, let's just say I saw someone I know, that I haven't seen in quite a while yesterday." She said, as she bounced around the kitchen, actually looking motherly, while making eggs.

"Who was it?" I asked, before taking a mouthful of eggs.

She thought for a while, looking like she was debating something over, and then said, "Abe." Dimitri almost choked, he then swallowed his eggs. I take it he knows of this 'Abe' person.

"You're not talking about Abe Mazur are you?" He asked my mother. She looked at him, almost shocked that he knew who she was talking about.

She recomposed herself, then said, "Yes, Abe Mazur. I take it you've heard of him?"

Dimitri nodded. "Where I'm from, everyone knows that name," he stated.

Once we dropped the subject, we finished up our eggs; we then helped with the dishes. Everyone was still sleeping, apparently, still tired from yesterday. So we watched T.V. until Lissa and Christian woke up. Since it was our last day off, we decided to go on a double date, and explore the Royal Court.

As we discovered last time, there is always something to find. We found, or more like, Dimitri found, a book store dedicated solely to Western Novels. He spent about an hour looking around, like a kid in a candy shop.

Then we went to the coffee shop we found last time we were here. There we saw a familiar face, Mia.

"It's been a while you guys, how come you don't stop by to visit more often?" She asked us in a whining voice.

"Well, now we're here to stay," answered Lissa and I at the same time.

"Really, everyone's going to stay? And Eddie's here too right Rose?" Mia continued with the interrogation.

"Hey, it's Guardian Hathaway now!" I said in a playful tone, to which, we all started laughing.

We all sat down for a cup of coffee. Mia was shocked when she learned that Dimitri and I were together, but hey, so were, most of the people who found out.

"Wait, so you two are really together right?" She asked for the fifth time.

This time it was Dimitri's turn to answer, "Yes, we are."

"Wow, who would have thought," she said again, and then, I knew why she was so shocked.

She was remembering Mason, and how much he had loved me, and how I could never return those feelings. She had once called me stupid for not loving him back, and I really was. But I couldn't, and now she knew why. I had always loved Dimitri, and she now saw, that I was always just playing around with him, hoping to get my mind off Dimitri. I gave her an 'I'm sorry' look; she gave me an 'It's okay' look back.

Then, we all headed off to look at the clothes they sold here.

To my relief, a lot of the shops here were the same as they were in every other mall.

Then, as we decided to head back, we ran into Adrian.

I felt like writing more, so you guys get two chapters in one day! Don't you feel special?

Thanks for the reviews guys, they really do encourage me to keep writing!
