Hey everyone. Sorry for the late update. I was going to update the 1st on january but my laptop's virus checker had to be updated and then my little sister wouldn't get off the other internet computer but it's ok. Cause I finally got on YAY.

About the question. I went to the zoo and it was just comman interest in what other people like.

My favourite animal is the African cat, The lion. I don't know why but I fell in love with the lion king as soon as I watched it.

Anyway I don't own anything but the plot.

Enjoy

Chapter three

I was woken by the sound of a woman shouting. To be more specific Viktoria's voice. I leaned up onto my elbows and looked around sleepily. I looked over to Viktoria's bed to see her covers thrown back and no sign of the girl. I pulled back my covers and walked towards her door. The voices seemed to get clearer the closer I got to them "What? He promised" Viktoria's voice screamed "He promised he wouldn't do this again." I ran a hand through my hair and walked into the kitchen. Both of their eye's flickered to me.

"What's going on?" I said standing in front of their hard gaze. Olena's eye's studied me and then a small smile appeared on her lips.

"I like your pajamas Rose." She said pointing her spoon to me. I looked down at my large shirt and shorts. Tectonically it wasn't my shirt. It was Adrian's but it was his favourite and never let me touch it so I stole it.

I couldn't help but grin back at her. "Yea? Maybe I could get you some..." She chuckled and flicked the bacon in the frying pan.

"I think I'll stick to what I have. To old for what your weiring. I'm sure Viktoria wouldn't mind." I looked at Viktoria and she was glaring at her mother.

"This is no time for jokes. My pajamas are fine anyway. I don't need any American advise in what to sleep in. Not that they sleep in much." Ouch. This Russian has two sides. Everyone in the room turned to look at her.

"Viktoria." Her mother scolded. "That's no way to speak to our guests-"

"She's not 'our' guest. She's Dimitri's." She turned to glare at me. I took a step back from her and raised up my hands in a surrendering sign. "And he's not even here to take care of her." She turned away from us back but before she left she called back. "Oh and it's all your fault he ran off again. He'll probably miss my birthday... Again." I heard the front door slam and I flinched. I looked at Olena and she had turned back to her cooking. I sat down at the dinning table and stared at my hands.

"What does she means by 'Run off'?" She turned to me and sighed.

"Dimitri has a act for disappearing on us. I don't know what you said last night Rose but... What did you say Rose?" I shrugged.

"I helped him in his relationship issue of life."

"You did?" Her eye's seemed to spark a interest. "So you guys are-" I couldn't help but laugh.

"No. No way. We aren't a couple. Even if we were I wouldn't want him running off every five minutes to go play in giant country."

"Oh. He doesn't go to 'giant country. He goes down to the local boxing club." I couldn't help but laugh.

"The boxing club. Like what is it? Hot, sweaty men fighting each other?"

"Yes. Men go down there to win cash but Dimitri goes down there to take out" She let out a heavy sigh. "Frustration."

"Right" I stood up "I'll go get changed and you can show me where he is." She looked at me shocked.

"No Rose. That place is no place of a girl. It's way to violent. There isn't just fighting in the rings but outside too and lots of drunk men." I snorted and rolled her eye's.

"I've been to prison."

"Prison?" She squeaked.

"Yea. My cousin works in a prison. Now show me where this place is and I'll bring Mr cowboy back in no time."

"Go down the street. Turn left and on the corner of the road there is a building that says 'men fights'. Be careful Rose." I nodded and headed upstairs to get changed into a pare of jeans and shirt. I tried to tie my red hair in a bun behind my head but failed when it started to stick out everywhere.

I grabbed my phone and head out the front door.

It didn't take me long to find it. It was a dark building and I could already hear the cheering from the outside. I walked towards the door and when to push it open when a man stopped me.

"Woh there pretty lady. Are you lost or something?" I looked up at him and gave him one of my cold hard stares.

"No. I'm looking for someone."

"Well your not going to find her in there-"

"Dimitri Belikov." He instantly smirked.

"What are you? His bitch?"

"Do you really think a American girl like me would want to be some Russian's bitch?" I asked putting a hand on my hip. He chuckled and opened the door.

"American you say? I've always wanted a American girl" I smirked at him.

"Well your gonna have wait a little longer cause you ain't getting this girl." He chuckled and nodded towards a door at the back of the room.

"That's where the big men play. These guys are armatures." He nodded around the room we were currently in. He was right. The first boxing match I saw they were both throwing sloppy punches. As I walked through the crowd of men they all seemed to give me looks of lust and make way for me. I went through the door and was hit by a wave 'oohs'. I saw Dimitri on the floor on his hands and knees spitting blood from his mouth. I studied the match. The guy he was versing had a bad right shoulder. Anytime he went for a punch with that arm it was sloppy and he prefered to use his left. The bell rang and Dimitri headed towards his corner. I pushed my way through the crowd and jumped over the fence that kept the crowd from getting to close. A guy grabbed my arm.

"Excuse me miss. You can't go pass the fence."

"The hell I can't." I shoved him away for me. I turned my attention towards Dimitri "Dimitri." I shouted. His head snapped over to me and then to the men behind me.

"Rose." He mouthed "She's with me." He finally shouted. Everyone looked up at him. The grip on my upper arms where released and I rushed over to where the Russian was. "What are you doing here?" He hissed.

"Your sister is pissed at me. When you go to hit him, aim for his right shoulder." He seemed confused.

"What?" He asked I rolled my eye's again

"Do you want my help or not? I went to a bad high school. Now do as I say. Go for the right. He'll be stunned and unprotected then the left." He grunted and squirted water over his face. I gave him a pat on the shoulder before standing back. I watched Dimitri get to his feet and face his opponent. He glanced one final time at me to watch me nod and the bell rang. As I assumed his opponent started with his left. I watched Dimitri dodge and finally go for the right shoulder. The guy stumbled back completely stunned and Dimitri went for his left leaving him completely defenseless. It was only a matter of time before Dimitri had him on the floor knocked out. The referee grabbed his wrist and held up his hand. The crowd cheered and clapped. I grinned as Dimitri ducked under the ropes and collected his money. He glanced at me.

"Thank you Roza." I grabbed his water bottle and followed him out of the fence.

"Roza again? I recon I like that nickname." I said grinning at him. He chuckled and wrapped a arm possessively around my waist.

"Stay close Rose. I don't want any of these men trying to snatch you away." I grinned next to him and head straight for the front door. He led me to where his motorcycle was and he turned to me. "what are you doing here Rose?"

"I already told you-"

"No. You know what I mean."

"You sister basically called me a slutty American girl. She said it was all my fault that you wouldn't make it back for her birthday. When is her birthday?"

"It's on Thursday."

"Thursday?" I muttered. Two days time. I had to be with Lissa by then. I bit down on my lip. "I really need you to fix my car." He handed me his helmet.

"I will. I promise you Rose. You will get there before your friends wedding. You still have... how many days?"

"Her wedding is on Friday Dimitri. Three days." He nodded.

"I will get it fixed by then... but it will take some work. I have to fix your air conditioning and then fill it back up with water. Plus it looks like you need a new plug."

"What?" I was so confused. He smiled and took the helmet from my hands and placed it on my head.

"Your car is in bad shape." He muttered and he hopped on his bike. He turned to me "Come on Rose." He patted the seat behind him and I stood there uncomfortably. I lifted the helmet off my head.

"Viktoria told me that you don't let anyone ride you bike... except you." He stared at me for a moment.

"That is true." I brushed some dust of his black helmet

"So why are you letting me?" I stared at him. He blinked and looked back at me.

"Because you have no other way of getting back."

"I can walk. It's how I got here." He sighed and grabbed his helmet and safely put it back on my head.

"It's not that I have to Rose. I want to ride you home." I staid there for a few seconds before sliding in behind him. He kicked his bike into motion and turned his head slightly towards me. "Hold on tight Rose." I instantly went for his waist as we started moving. It was actually something I have never done. Ridden on a motorcycle. I clutched to Dimitri for dear life as I tried not to scream. It was so frightening but exciting all at the same time. It was a new kind of rush for me but as soon as it started we pulled into his driveway. I was his mother staring out of the window in shock. I slowly took of his helmet and shook out my hair.

"Thank you Dimitri." He turned to me and smiled. He put his motorcycle on it's stand and took his helmet.

"No thank you Rose. It was more exciting with you on the bike." I instantly blushed and his mother rushed out.

"So it's official. Your in a relationship." We instantly turned to look at her.

"No." We said at the same time. Dimitri swallowed.

"What we mean mama is that we are friends."

"but you let her ride your bike. You haven't let anyone ride you bike. Not even... her." Dimitri didn't even seemed fazed by it. Last time he had stormed out the room but he actually looked like he didn't care. Maybe he had taken my advise.

"Yes. Well things change. I have changed."

"Your not going back to that place?" She asked looking very hopeful.

Dimitri nodded slowly "I promise mama." She squealed and hugged him. She looked at me and mouthed a 'thank you' before pulling away from her son and leading him into the house.

"We need to get you cleaned up. Your a mess. Covered in... never mind. I'm just so pleased." I followed after them smiling at my own work that I had created.

I love happy families. Too bad mine was never like this.

Dun dun dunnnnnn.

Sorry for any misspelling.

I'll start introducing Rose's family life in the next few chapters.
