A/N: Just want to say thank you to everyone. Every little review, story alert, favorite story, author alert, and favorite author makes my day. So this is just a little thanks to EVERYONE and I hope you enjoy this chapter, It's my longest yet :)

Disclaimer: This is the last disclaimer I'm writing you all know it anyway it's just annoying. Richelle Mead owns Vampire Academy and its character not me. This is true for my entire story, for all chapters that has been and all chapters that are to come.


I was standing in the bathroom finishing off my hair while Dimitri was patiently waiting downstairs for me. I had an ocean paradise bluely-green one-strap dress on. Lissa had brought it for me only a few days before Dimitri and I left for our little Russian escape. I took one last look at myself in the mirror, satisfied I walked downstairs to where my prince awaited. I was still a bit annoyed he had given me such short notice of his school reunion but none the less I was excited, id FINALY get to hear more about what Dimitri was like at school, he had personally witnessed mine, only fair I got a little dirt on his. I smiled to myself.

"You look devilishly up to something right now" I hadn't even realized I walked into the kitchen; Dimitri took my hand in his. "You look beautiful Roza, so so beautiful".

"Why thank you Comrade, you don't look bad your self" I wasn't joking he looked amazing. Id say hot but it didn't sum it up, hot defiantly but it was more than that, elegant, badass, sexy, noble, handsome and a hell of a lot more all sprung to mind. I hugged him tightly while he encircled me in his strong arms, he was mine all mine.

We were now in the car only five minutes away from Dimitri's school.

"You nervous comrade?"

"I'm not sure, part of me is, part of me isn't?"

"So...is there going to be any ex's there?" I had briefly thought about this before which had me both curious and cautious. Dimitri was silent for a while, when he finally answered he looked a bit nervous.

"One"

"One?"

"One"

"Can I kill her?"

"No"

"Beat the crap out of her?"

"No"

"Punch her?"

"Rose"

"Accidentally trip her?"

"Rose, you know I love you and only you, Alina and I ..."

"Alina!"

"Yes her names Alina Zeklos she was Ivan's cousin, and like I was trying to say we only dated for 2 months. She has absolutely NOTHING on you Roza, you have my heart, my whole heart". With that he bent over and cupped my face in his free hand and kissed me.

"As you have mine" Dimitri and I shared another kiss intertwining our fingers. By this time we had arrived at the school. Here goes nothing. Dimitri and I stepped out of the car and walked hand in hand into what must have been their main dinning wall. It was a massive open area, half filled with tables; the other half had been transformed into a dance floor. The ceiling looked amazingly beautiful. It had hand carvings of Dhampir's and Moroi in battle working hand in hand combining strength with magic.

"You like it?"

"Love it, its...beautiful"

"Well yes it is nice, but you're the most beautiful thing Roza". I smiled at this, I always got so giggly when he flattered me, I know Rose Hathaway giggling, but its what this man did to me, I loved him so much.

"Это вы Дмитрий? " (Is that you Dimitri?) Arr man everyone here is going to speak Russian! I had forgot that. The only thing I understood of that was Dimitri's name. It was a fellow dhampir standing off to the side. Dimitri greeted him accordingly and shook his hand. After that they launched into a conversation in Russian. After what I could only assume was small talk Dimitri turned to me and said something.

"My apologies I hadn't released you didn't speak Russian, I'm Guardian Misov but please just call me Julian, Dimitri and I shared a room in our final year". Julian extended his hand as a greeting in which I extended mine.

"Guardian Hathaway, but just call me Rose". He stopped mid shake then looked at Dimitri, who just nodded.

"Guardian Rose Hathaway?"

"Yes?" This was weird that is what I had said wasn't it?

"Its an honor to meet you, I have heard a lot about you"

"Oh..." It was all I could say I didn't have the best track recorded what had he heard?

"I have a daughter here somewhere, she would be thrilled to meet you, you're her idol".

"I'm her idol?...just between you and me I'm not the best role model"

"Haha, I don't believe that for a second Guardian Hathaway...speak of the devil here she comes"

"Papa, I got you a drink" She was a small dhampir in a pretty white dress with her hair half up half down with big blue eyes similar to her fathers.

"Thank you Bekky, id like you too meet some people...this is guardian Belikov, he's an old friend of mine, and this is his..."

"Girlfriend" Dimitri said with a note of pride in his voice. Dimitri and I both laughed at the look on Julian's face, he was shocked to say the least.

"His girlfriend guardian Rose Hathaway"

"GUARDIAN ROSE HATHAWAY" She yelled and I do mean yelled. It echoed through the hall, causing everyone stop and look at me. Well isn't this awkward...

"Arr yes, its nice to meet you...Bekky was it?" I was trying to ignore all the watching eyes. I didn't see myself as that much of an impact around the world, more the fact that I didn't see how people could see me as an idol of sorts, I had broken a lot of rules, I was reckless and impulsive. Bekky wasn't helping the situation she just stood there wide-eyed looking at me. I turned to Dimitri to help but he had a huge smirk on his face obviously enjoying this. Next thing I knew Bekky launched herself at me hugging me close, weird yes but I couldn't help but think how cute she was.

"Its nice to meet you too Bekky"

"Thank you, please wait here I want to get my camera and I can have a photo with you ok?"

"Ok"

"Thank you sooo much, dad come on we need to get the camera out of the car".

She ran off with her dad in tow after he gave us a quick nod good-bye. Wow she really did like me. At least by now most people had stopped staring though now I would hear my name pop up in conversations. A tall and thin blonde Moroi than started to make her way over to us; her eyes glued on Dimitri. Just looking at her made me want to punch her.

She immediately greeted Dimitri with a hug, a hug that she held on to for far to long if you ask me. Than when she pulled away she had the stupidity to trace a finger down his chest. I didn't know what she was saying as it was in Russian, but I did know she was flirting. I was almost certain this had to be Alina. Admittedly Dimitri was trying to politely pull away from her but she kept throwing herself at him. Lets just say she was pissing me off...ALOT. Time to step in.

"Hi, I'm Rose, Dimitri's girlfriend". I didn't say it meanly, but I didn't say it nicely. More of a innocently bitchy voice.

She quickly turned and looked at me. She critically studied me, probably looking for a flaw she could find to bring up later.

"I didn't realize you had a girlfriend Dimi" DIMI? Breathe Rose just breathe.

"Yes Rose and I are together" to make the point he took my hand. Just as well, I swear if he took her side even slightly I make sleep on the couch. Looking at him he seemed to know this. If I wasn't pissed off with her presence I would have laughed Dimitri look rather nervous.

"And how old are you Rose...15?" Now I really wanted to hit her or something, anything! But I had been trying to keep my cool lately so my drink I got on arrival stayed in my glass...for now.

"18...and its Guardian Hathaway to you" I'm not going to be on a first name basis with some bitch.

"Are you even old enough to be a guardian?" Before I could answer the bitch back Dimitri spoke.

"Yes she is and she's a every good guardian".

"I sure she's nothing compared to you" She said flirtatiously stepping close to him. Boy was she asking for it.

"No, she's much better than I am actually, and I love her more than anything".

"I love you too Comrade and no I'm not".

"Comrade?" This bitch just ruined Dimitri's and I's moment! Than what she said next really really pissed me of. "Cute I might call you that...hey comrade who are you guarding these days cause I could use a guardian!" That was it no one NO ONE call's Dimitri comrade except for me!

"Look bitch you can back off right now or I swear to god I will brake that tiny nose of yours" Dimitri grabbed my arms and pulled me towards him.

"Oh I'm so scared, you hit me and you will be dragged out of here not to mention I could report you to the guardian council, maybe go on trial I'm royal!"

"Ha do it, please I beg of you go to the queen I'm quite certain she will take my side"

"And what makes you think that you little brat?"

"She's my charge and more to the point MY BEST FRIEND!" This seemed to shut her up. Throughout this Dimitri had been trying to intervene but not getting a chance to until now.

"Alina I think you should leave. I'm sorry but I have a charge I'm guarding Lord Ozera; Queen Vasilisa's boyfriend. You should also know I am completely in love with rose and nothing can change that, and if you call me comrade again, I will tell your brother what you did with Ryan". I soo wanted to know what she did with this Ryan guy but I knew better than to ask right now. Alina was pissed to say the least.

"You have changed Belikov, you and your blood whore can go to hell". She started to turn on her heal before Dimitri grabbed her. "Apologies to her right now" Dimitri had lowered his voice to a deadly and dangerous one. She turned and looked at both of us then turned away and walked off. Dimitri was about to say something before I stopped him.

"Let it go comrade, I don't want her to ruin our night"

"I'm so sorry Roza, I never knew she would go that far" He looked truly upset that she had called me that. He wrapped me tightly in his arms pressing me to his chest and kissing the top of my head.

Its ok Comrade, I'm fine". He still looked unsure but none the less took my hand and led me to a table of food.

"Arrr you know me to well, getting food to distract me from hitting her" I took a small plate and filled it with jam donuts. Dimitri just smiled and shook his head. Then I heard an older looking guy greet Dimitri in Russian. They talked for a while while I ate my donuts man they were good. When I was done Dimitri turned to me and assumingly introduced me though I couldn't be certain he was still speaking in Russian. The old guy looked surprised then extended his hand towards me as a greeting and introduced himself though I didn't understand any of it. As I was shaking his hand Dimitri informed him I only speak English.

"My apologizes Guardian Hathaway, I'm Guardian Latez, I was Dimitri teacher when he just started here".

"Aww little Dimitri" I smiled at the thought of a mini Dimitri running around. Dimitri smiled as well.

"Yes he was quite the student"

"Ohhh please you have got to tell me stories of Dimitri, he was there when I was at school I want to know about him at school".

"Don't tell her anything" Dimitri joked

"There was the time you set the table on fire guardian Belikov"

"You set a table on fire? Now that's something I would do...I'm so proud of you comrade"

"I was making a spice rack for my mum" [mom if your not Aussie] Dimitri explained innocently. I could just picture that. Little Dimitri accidently setting a table on fire while making something special for his mum. Now that was the giving and caring Dimitri I loved.

"That's so cute Comrade...did you finish it?"

"Yes she still has it now" He said this smiling.

'Yes we couldn't really punish him he apologized all day and insisted he fix it or make a new one". Yep defiantly my Dimitri.

"So any other stories I can tease him with later?" I smiled I really wanted some dirt on him.

"Well there is the time he and Ivan.."

"Don't tell her that she will never let me live it down"

"Ohh what!"

"Dimitri and Ivan locked a group of Moroi in the toilets then Ivan used his water abilities to flood the toilets while Dimitri distracted all the schools guardians"

"Hahaha, Dimitri you would have made me run so many laps if I did that"

"Yes well, you did a lot worse things than I did." Dimitri took my hand and kissed it.

"You two make a great couple".

"Thank you, not every one excepts it" Guardian Letez looked confused.

"Why not?"

"Because of the age difference, because we are both guardians, because he was my mentor at school lots of things, though none of it concerns Dimitri and I"

"There idiots anyone can see your love is genuine I have never seen guardian Belikov so relaxed around someone".

"Thank you" With that I excused myself to go to the bathroom. As I was walking out I got a text from Lissa

Lissa - Hey Rose, enjoying yourself? Miss you. Xo

Rose - Hey Lissa, yeah its awesome we are at Dimitri school reunion right now. Missing you like crazy. Xo

Lissa – THAT'S AWESOME! Having fun?

Rose - Yeah got some dirt on Dimitri :) Some bitch Alina Zeklos called me a blood whore and tried to hit on Dimitri. Dimitri got really upset at that. You'll be proud I didn't hit her. But overall I'm having an amazing time :)

Lissa didn't reply which was a bit strange, I'd text her again to check if she's ok if she didn't reply soon. In the mean time I decided to go find Dimitri again. Just as I saw him a tanned looking guy stepped in front of me.

"Guardian Hathaway is it?"

"Yes, I'm sorry I don't know who you are?"

"Call me Taras" Then he winked. This is not what I needed.

"Well its nice to meet you Taras but I should be getting back to my boyfriend.

"And who is that?"

"Dimitri Belikov"

"Your dating Belikov?"

"Yeah I am"

"Oh I'm so much more fun than Belikov beautiful"

"I don't think so, he is a hundred times the man you will ever be, not to mention I love him like crazy".

"Princess you just don't know what you missing come with me and ill show you" The prick grabbed my arm and started to pull me away. I quickly pulled my arm back.

"Touch me again and you'll regret it".

"I want you to make me regret it baby"

Before I could answer Dimitri came over and wrapped his arms around me protectively.

"Talk to Roza again and we will take this outside Taras" Dimitri was back to using his scary voice.

"You think you intimidate me Belikov?"

"I have broken your hand and foot before, ill brake every bone in your body if you go near her" Here Dimitri was telling me to behave when he is threatening people like that. Yeah Taras was a dick but I wasn't expecting such a strong response from Dimitri. What surprised me more was when Taras tried to quickly lean down and kiss me though he failed. Dimitri quickly let go of me then punched him. Taras fell to the floor. To my surprise everyone around us started clapping, I was missing something here everyone must really hate Taras. When Taras finally got up, he looked like he had a really really sore eye, it was starting to bruise already, that was going to be one hell of a black eye in an hour.

"I suggest you leave before I follow through in braking your bones"

"Be careful Belikov, I have connections".

"My best friends the queen and Dimitri guards her boyfriend" That seemed to shut him up. He finally walked away and Dimitri seemed to relax a bit.

"What was that Comrade I thought I was the one that did that sort of thing?" I hugged him and snuggled into him.

"He's a jerk Roza he abuses girls, I don't want him any where near you". Dimitri still looked a bit shaken up so I kissed him.

"Well thank you Comrade, I love you.

"I love you too...would you like to dance with me Roza?"

"I would love to, but I want to check on Lissa first she stopped reply to my text's and I'm a bit worried...want to come outside with me?"

"Oh course" He took my hand and led me outside. Once we were away from the noise I pulled out my phone and called Liss.

Lissa - Hey

Rose - Hey Liss I was getting worried i didnt hear back from you

Lissa - Oh I was just making a quick phone call to Lord Zeklos. I told him that while I didn't reflect the incident on him personally I am very disappointed to hear that a Zeklos just called my best friend and guardian a blood whore, and that I will not stand for it. I said I would keep it quite after he has been trying to rebuild the Zeklos name though if it ever happened again I would step in, you saved my life after all. He said Alina is an embarrassment to the Zeklos name and spent the next few minutes apologizing. He asked me to apologies to you on his family's behalf. He sounded genuinely upset about it. But I think he will be giving her a call.

The two people I love were really standing up for me tonight.

Rose - wow...thanks Liss, I don't know what to say

Lissa - No problem, no one calls my best friend and guardian a blood whore and gets away with it.

Rose - Haha ill remember that, thanks

Lissa – That's ok, I'm really sorry but I have to go I'm meeting Christian for dinner. You'll be home soon right?

Rose - Yeah ill be home soon, miss you have fun with Sparky make sure you use protection.

Lissa - Rose!

Rose - Haha talk to you soon Liss. Miss you and love you.

Lissa - You too. Talk soon.

With that we both hung up.

"I take it Lissa's ok?"

"Yep, you ready to dance Comrade?"

Dimitri quickly led me to the dance floor. He wrapped him arms around my waist while I wrapped my arms around his neck. It was a slow dance to which we swayed back and forth to. It was a magical moment. It was like Dimitri and I were the only two people in the room. I felt complete; my heart was filled with so much love and happiness. I looked up into Dimitri's eyes and saw the love returned in them. I could stay like this forever in his arms. As if reading my thoughts he lent down and kissed me. The kissed started off soft and sweet, though grew to a more passionate kiss though we didn't go crazy remembering we were in public. When we finally pulled apart we continued staring into each others eyes.

"I love you my Roza"

"I love you too Dimitri".

We danced awhile longer and talked to a few other friends of Dimitri's. Just as we were getting ready to leave Bekky ran up to me.

"There you are I couldn't find you and I was so worried I wouldn't see you again or get a picture".

"It's ok Bekky I wouldn't have left with out saying good-bye"

She seemed happy with that. She than handed her dad the camera that had joined us as well, than ran over to me for the photo. I bent down and gave her a hug while smiling for the photo. I had caught her by surprise and I bet the look on her face (which we have on camera) is priceless. I had a few more photos with Bekky after that, I grabbed the camera and took some shots of her with her dad and Dimitri.

When Dimitri and I finally left and were driving home, I saw our tree in the distance.

"Dimitri I know it's late but can we quickly stop at our tree?"

"Oh course Roza I was thinking the same"

So Dimitri pulled over and we walked hand in hand to our tree.


A/N: I hoped you guys liked it, I'm sorry if there are spelling or grammar mistakes. Just so you know there's still more exciting things to come :) Oh and I know I didn't put any wild story's of Dimitri in there but I thought about it and decided that Dimitri being found drunk and hung over in the school hall wasn't like Dimitri's character and I'd rather try and stick to the Dimitri that Richelle invented from the story; the one we all fell in love with. I hope I didn't disappoint anyone. Anyways review away (if you want to) they inspire me a lot.
