Chapter 4: I Love You, Comrade

RPOV

"I want to trust you Rose," Dimitri said.

I felt like I was just slapped in the face. I was at a loss for words. He really didn't want me to see Tasha.

"Dimitri…" I whispered, the tears threatening to spill from my eyes. "I'm sorry, I didn't know."

He laughed but there was no humor. "You didn't know? Rose, I told you no and you still went."

It felt like we were back at the academy. I was the student and he was my mentor.

Suddenly my anger spiked. I wasn't his student anymore. I can do what I want whether he wants me to or not.

"So what if you told me no? You're not my teacher anymore! I can do what I want without your input!" I yelled, my anger rising by the second.

"I may not be your teacher, Rose, but I am your equal and you're the one always telling me that. You should know I want what's best for you and that's to stay away from Tasha," he argued.

"But what you think is 'best for me' isn't always right!"

"Oh and sneaking out to visit the woman who almost killed you twice is 'best for you?'"

"She wasn't going to do anything to me! She was in the cell and there was no way for her to hurt me!"

"She could've reached through the bars and choked you. You doubt her abilities. She's a Moroi fire user. She's practice offensive magic with that fire and she knows how to use it," Dimitri said.

"There was a guardian standing right with us!" I argued.

"You're not getting this Rose!" Dimitri yelled, throwing his hands up in the air. "Not only did you risk your safety yet again but you didn't trust my judgment."

My anger disappeared. I trusted him. I always trusted him. This wasn't about going to see Tasha or risking my life. This wasn't about what I thought was right and what Dimitri thought was right. This was about trust. Trust in each other's decisions.

"I just want to be able to trust you Roza, and I want you to be able to trust me." He turned and walked out of the room.

I helplessly reached after him but it did no use. I crumpled to the floor and put my heads in-between my knees. One little mistake. That was all it took for Dimitri to lose his trust in me. It was a stupid mistake that I should've never made. Dimitri was right though. I did put myself in danger and I didn't take what he said seriously.

I shook my head, the tears streaming down my cheeks. "I'm such an idiot," I whispered.

I tried to collect myself and stood. I walked out to where Dimitri had disappeared to and found him in the guest room.

He ran a hand through his hair. "Why Roza? Why do you have to be so stubborn?" he asked aloud.

I took a deep breath. "Because I'm Rose Hathaway."

DPOV

I spun around, startled by Rose's response. She stood against the wall, arms crossed and her eyes were red and puffy.

"Rose," I said, my voice barely a whisper.

"I'm sorry Dimitri. I really am," she apologized.

She started to turn. "Wait Rose." She stopped. "Come here." I held my arms open and she came into them without hesitation.

"I really am sorry Dimitri," she sobbed into me.

"Shh, it's okay Roza. I'm sorry too, I shouldn't have overreacted like I did," I told her.

"But you were right, I shouldn't have gone. I should've listened to you. Please I want you to trust me again," she pleaded.

I pulled back and brushed her tears away with my thumb. "Roza, it's okay, I trust you," I assured her.

Rose pulled me back into a hug and I held her tightly. "I love you, comrade," she whispered.

I chuckled. "I love you too, Roza."

Rose pulled back from the hug and stretched on her toes. I closed the space between the two of us and met her lips. We traveled back to the bedroom and made love for the second time that day.

I woke up the next morning without Rose sleeping next to me. "Rose?" I called out, pulling on some shorts.

"In here!" she yelled.

"What are you doing in the kitchen?" I asked entering the room.

"I thought I'd do something nice and make you breakfast," Rose explained.

I wrapped my arms around her waist. "What are you making?" I asked.

"Um…" she lifted the frying pan she was using off the stove and turned it on an angle. "I'm not really sure. I think it's supposed to be eggs…or maybe an omelet."

I laughed. "Maybe I should make breakfast."

"Fine, here." She handed me the frying pan and I scraped the unknown food out of the pan.

I brought it back over to the stove and took out some eggs. I cracked them into the pan and started cooking.

"So Dimitri, when are we going to Russia?" Rose asked.

"How's tonight?" I had secretly booked a flight for tonight anyways so either way we'd be going tonight.

"Sounds perfect. After breakfast I'll go say goodbye to everyone and then we can pack."

"Alright while you do that, I'll make the arrangements."

"Great. I can't wait to go back to Russia with you Dimitri." She came over and kissed me quickly. I finished breakfast and we sat down to eat.

RPOV

I headed over to the part of the palace in which Lissa and Christian were staying. Dimitri and I finished our breakfast rather quickly considering I wrecked the first part of our meal. Thank God Dimitri could cook because I seriously suck.

I reached Lissa's door and I knocked softly. "Liss? It's Rose," I called into the door.

"Come in Rose!" Lissa called from inside.

I opened the door to find papers all over the floor. "Whoa Liss, what's with all the papers?" I asked, trying hard not to step on them.

"Queen stuff. You know I can't wait until you come back from Russia because I need a lot of help with this," she said, looking up at me for a second and turning back to her papers.

"What about Christian? Why isn't he helping you?" I asked.

This time she met my eyes. "This is for Tasha's trial."

My mouth dropped open. "All of this?"

"All of it."

"Wow but uh, speaking of Russia…Dimitri and I are leaving tonight," I said.

"Oh you are! Why didn't you tell me sooner? We could've spent the day together!" cried Lissa.

"Sorry, Dimitri told me this morning that we were going tonight and besides you're swamped with work anyways," I reasoned.

"Work that I could hold off," she muttered.

"Oh hey how was that meeting yesterday? I heard it was for Tasha."

"Eh, we just covered the basics of the trial but on my way over I saw Adrian."

I flinched. "What happened?"

"He just said he had to get out of court so he could deal with your breakup. I didn't really buy it but he seemed pretty worked up about it."

"I'm not surprised, the last time we talked he stormed out."

"Yeah that was kind of expected..." Lissa trailed off and returned to her papers.

"Hey Liss you have a lot of work. I'm going to go find Sparky and tell him goodbye. Meet Dimitri and I at the airstrip tonight?"

"I'll be there!"

"Bye!" I called as I left her room. "Huh, so Adrian left to get away from me…" I mused, and then I walked off down the hall.
