Rose and Dimka Chapter 4:
RPOV:
"Hey Comrade what do you say to taking your very pretty wife and daughter to the gym and teaching them some awesome skills." I asked as we were walking to the gym, he couldn't say no even if he wanted to, Lina had her pout and I had my smile.
"Yeah dad, please. I really want to learn how to fight." Good girl, what Mr Belikov didn't know was that we rehearse things like this so that Karolina looks dead cute. He smiled and picked up Karolina and winked at me, we won.
"How could I say no to the two most gorgeous girls in existence?" Lina laughed and jumped out of Dimitri's arms only to run into Eddie's and go in to the gym. "You planned that didn't you?" Damn he figured it out.
"Me, plan what? I have no idea what you're talking about comrade." He shook his head and started running, soon enough I caught up to him and we were in the gym. The gym at court was amazing; it had mats for fighting, gym equipment, dummies to practice staking and a massive oval/track to run laps. I went straight to the mat Eddie and Lina were at, she was punching him and Eddie was pretending to fall in pain or maybe he was falling in pain?
"Wow, your daughter is beating up my boyfriend, that's sad." I turned around to see Mia Rinaldi, I hugged her and laughed.
"Yep, my daughter is pretty badass, but then again Eddie is a good actor, or so he thinks." We laughed a little more and then Eddie and Lina came up behind us with Dimitri not to far away. "Ready to kick some butt angel?" Lina nodded and went to the mat with Dimitri behind her.
"You're teaching you're four year old daughter how to fight? Why?" Eddie, Eddie, Eddie.
"Well because I can and she's going to learn sometime."
"Well she will be ahead in her classes when she goes to school." Mia does have the sense in the relationship. I said bye to them and went over to where my little family were, Dimitri and Karolina looked like father and daughter, they were laughing and having fun and she looked so much like him when she smiled. I sat down on the floor and watched Dimitri teach her some basic moves, just like he taught me. As I was watching Lissa came to sit down beside me.
She looks so much like Dimitri when she's laughing like that
"I was just thinking that, what's up Liss?"
"Not much just thought I would come see my awesome niece, and my best friend and my other awesome friend who saved my best friend from expulsion."
"You are rambling, is something wrong?"
Nope, nothing is wrong I'm just happy and excited. I couldn't help but think Lissa was hiding something, I tried to think of what it might be and then she walked in the gym
"Hello Dimka, did you miss me?" I can tell you one thing I did not miss Tasha Ozera.
DPOV:
As I was teaching Lina how to stand correctly I briefly noticed Lissa and Roza talking but I was concentrating, it was times like this when I realized how lucky I was, teaching Lina reminded me of when I taught Roza but Lina was a lot more patient, and then I heard a voice I didn't think I would hear ever again.
"Hello Dimka, did you miss me?" not really, I looked to see Roses face and then knelt down to Lina and told her to go over to her mum and make sure she was clam.
"Tasha, how are you? I assume you are here for Christian and Lissa's wedding." Lina was shaking Roses arm, obviously trying to calm her.
"Mum staring is rude and you know it!" Ha nice choice of words Karolina, they worked to because Rose snapped out of her rage for now.
"Aunt Tasha, when did you get here?" Thank god for Christian, I can get Rose out of here.
"Oh Christian, I got here about ten minuets ago. I went to the guest building and came to see my friend." Good god this woman works fast.
"That was nice of you Tasha, but I actually have to go I'm assigned for a shift with Adrian." I grabbed Rose by the back of her top and Karolina by the hand and walked out of the gym.
"Bye-bye everyone, see you all later." Well at least Lina was polite.
"Daddy, why does mummy look like she is going to explode?"
"Because she didn't get a chance to fight." Which was technically true, "Rose sometime today you need to start breathing again." She let out a sigh and smiled.
"Mummy who is Tasha and why don't you like her?" four year olds are amazing at noticing things.
"Who says I don't like her?" Lina raised one eyebrow and Rose scowled, she hated that she couldn't do that. Lina knew not to push for an answer and luckily Adrian was walking up to us.
"Princess Karolina, do you want to go dress shopping? I don't really care if you want to go or not, I'm kidnapping you." Lina laughed and nodded her head; she loved it when Adrian 'kidnapped' her, because that meant she couldn't get told off for messing around.
"Adrian if your dress shopping for the wedding I would hold off she changes her mind like everyday." I said, I knew that each day she had a different favourite colour, T.V show etc. Adrian just waved his hand.
"Don't care, if she changes her mind then I will get her a new dress." I saw Rose shake her head and laugh as I looked behind Adrian and saw four guardians. "Two for me, two for missy princess over there." He said noticing where I looked.
"Karolina come here." Rose was turning into her mother persona again. "Be good okay, I know your staying court but stay close to Adrian." She looked at Lina with a stern look that even I was afraid of then Lina nodded grabbed Adrian's hand waved goodbye and left.
"Well that was a nice surprise that Tasha gave us, I wonder if she will try and take you back again because if she does I will cut that mane she calls hair." I laughed and grabbed her by the waist.
"I wouldn't dare accept, you might cut my hair."
"I wouldn't dare."
"Come on I am going to take you to lunch."
Tasha POV:
Dimka was acting weird today in the gym and why was he still around Rose, he must have gotten over her by now I mean Rose obviously did she has a daughter now, the kid is probably Ivashkov.
"Lissa darling, who is the father to that beautiful daughter of Roses?" Lissa almost dropped the bowl she was holding and Christian just plain froze.
"Umm, we never asked it wasn't really our business." She said
"Plus when we did bring it up Rose nearly staked us." Added Christian
"Well I am going to see if my Dimitri has finished his shift." I didn't even wait for a reply I just walked out of the apartment.
Lissa POV:
Her Dimitri! Her Dimitri! Argh I would have loved to see her face if I told her the truth.
"Liss calm down, you are going to break the bowl and I need that for dinner."
"Her Dimitri, Christian she lost him for years ago." He nodded and hugged me
"I know, but it isn't our place to tell them, we just need to go along with it until she finds out." He was so sweet that's why I am marring him.
RPOV:
Lunch was great and then because we didn't have any shifts we went back to the apartment and just relaxed, until there was a knock on the door. I went to answer thinking it would be Eddie or mum or even Karolina and Adrian but it was Tasha.
"Rose, what are you doing in Dimitri's apartment?" well I married him, he's the father of my child and I live here bitch what are you doing here?
"I live here." Plain and simple but the look on her face was priceless, to bad Dimitri came p behind me otherwise I would have loved to tell her the rest.
"Natasha what are you doing here?" she flinched at the sound of her full name I laughed (inside of course)
"Dimka! I was wondering if you would like to go for a little walk with me." It would be a good chance to tell her to back off so I nodded at him and Dimitri obviously knowing what I was thinking nodded t Tasha and winked at me.
DPOV:
I had to tell Tasha to back down, I had to tell her the truth.
"Tasha I need to tell you something." She stopped me before I could even start getting one of those I want to kiss you looks in her eyes.
"Wait Dimka me first, I overlooked your infatuation with Rose four years ago, but she obviously got over I mean she has a child for god sake."
"Tasha that's what I need to talk to you about, you see Karolina is my daughter it has something to do with Rose being shadow kissed." It took a while for the shock to sink in but once it did I saw the fire rag in her eyes and she just cracked.
"You… slept…with her! Are you insane! You can't love her." Was she insane, how could she think that?
"I do love her, in fact I love her so much I married her." But it was like none of this was sinking in her mind,
"This is ridiculous, Dimitri after the wedding you can come back with me and we will be happy just like it was supposed to be."
"I will not leave family, I love Rose and I love Karolina." I can't believe she would even think something like that, I couldn't even finish talking to her I turned on my heel and walked off. Storming through the door of the apartment I saw Karolina spinning around in a gorgeous blue silk dress that was so long it looked like she would trip over it.
"Daddy do you like my dress? I picked it myself." Seeing that smile on her face calmed me down instantly.
"I love the dress little Lina." I smiled back at her, Rose was at the kitchen table talking with Lissa and Christian and Karolina and Adrian were dancing around all of the furniture. This was my family and I wouldn't trade it for the world.
TPOV:
Daughter! It makes so much sense now, why he is still around why he was acting all weird. I should apologise for the way I acted I see it now he isn't my Dimitri he never was and now I feel crap. I walked out of Christina and Lissa's apartment and across the hall when I got to the door at first I was afraid to knock but I found the courage and knocked lightly three times Adrian answered he door with Karolina holding onto one of his legs.
"Hi Ms Ozera my name is Karolina Hathaway-Belikov, but you can call me Princess of the world because that's what I am." Looking at her was like looking at a girl version of Dimitri.
"Hello Princess, may I come in?" she looked up at Adrian then looked back at me and nodded. I waked into the kitchen area and saw Rose, Lissa, Christian and Dimitri. Dimitri and Christian were cooking and Rose and Lissa looked like they were making a salad.
"Aunt Tasha!"
"Hey everyone. Um before anyone speaks I would just like to say that I am sorry." They looked stunned.
"Tasha I know this will sound weird coming from me but it's okay, you were shocked and if it were me I probably would have acted way worse." It was weird hearing that come from Rose; I think Dimitri was shocked but Lissa and Christian just looked plain clueless.
"Thank you." I said, Dimitri smiled at me and went back to cooking and Rose asked me if I would like to stay and just like that I felt so much better. As we sat down at the table for dinner I looked at Rose and Karolina, they looked so much alike and yet Karolina looked so much like Dimitri as well they also looked so happy all of them did.
