A little short i know but hopefully i can write some more over the week :)

RPOV:

It was late at night (for moroi) and yet for some reason I was still awake. I looked out to see an overcast sky. December was at its beginning. I put on a hoodie and walked out side. There weren't many people out and about at this time. I sat on the edge a fountain, looking at nothing in particular. I saw a couple making their way slowly back to their house, laughing at something, shop owners closing up, and silent guardians standing in the shadows. While caught up in my observations, I hadn't noticed someone sitting down beside me. My body instantly was aware of who it was before I looked at him.

I glanced at him out of the corner of my eye to see his head in his hands, gripping his brown locks, that I love so much, like a life preserver.

Slowly I reached over and placed my hands on his, loosening his grip. He slowly lifted his head, our gazes locking immediately. Neither of us moved and I realized my hands were still on his. His grip suddenly tightened. "Roza" he murmured, his rough voice breaking. It was like all we could do was look at each other.

Tears began to pool in my eyes and I threw my arms around him. I knew I would regret it later but I needed to touch him and feel him. I could feel his breath hitch and knew he had begun to sob as well. Home, I realized. Anywhere in the world and all the places I have been would never be my home. No, my home was right here, in the arms of this man.

I needed more I realized, more of him. I looked into his tear filled eyes and knew he felt the same way. I stood, my hand still in his and pulled him to my room.

As soon as my door was closed his lips were on mine, needy but loving at the same time. I slid my hand up his shirt and over his chiseled abs. he let out a shuddering breath and lifted his arms while breaking the kiss only briefly. We continued until all our clothing was strewn on the floor and we showed each other just how much we loved each other.

We lay there panting and sweaty, my head on his chest. He began to run his fingers through my hair and down my back, softly lulling me to sleep. My last thought was that I was finally home.

DPOV:

I woke up sometime close to the middle of the night. I knew I probably wouldn't be able to go back to sleep. I walked out of my building and saw her sitting on the side of a fountain, staring at nothing and everything. She looked deep in thought so I silently sat down beside her. I put my head in my hands and began to wonder why I would ever leave her. My fingers gripping hard onto my hair.

Suddenly I felt small hands that I instantly knew were hers, on mine, loosening their grip. I slowly lifted my head and locked my gaze with her familiar brown one. Neither of us dared to look away. I tightened my grip on her hands and let out a broken "Roza". I could see tears pool in her eyes and she threw her arms around me and I returned her embrace eagerly. I knew I would probably do something wrong but I just wanted to here. With her. Right now.

My breathing hitched and I began to sob, not caring who saw it. It felt like home, not even the feeling I had baia could compare to this. It was… safe. She looked into my eyes and right then I knew she needed me just as much as I needed her. She stood up and pulled me to her room. As soon as she closed the door, we were in a frenzy. I couldn't control myself, my lips immediately found hers. Her small hands slid up my shirt and over my stomach making me shudder. I lifted my arms, letting her discard my shirt. We continued like this and soon showed each other our love.

Soon we lay panting, her head on my chest both settling down. I ran my hands through her hair and down her back, asking myself how I could have got this lucky. I smiled when her breathing evened out. Just as I to almost found the bliss of sleep my phone vibrated. I reached and flipped it open to find a text message from the head guardian.

Guardian Belikov, I hate to inform you that you have been 1 of the 20 guardians chosen to go to St. Vladimirs. There has been another attack and the academy has called for back up. We have reason to believe that there maybe more. There are no guarantees that you will come back but seeing as you are new to court in the first place and Queen Vasilisa can get more guards you are picked. You are to meet at the airstrip in 1 hour exactly. I'm sorry to tell you this however it must be done.

I felt a tear roll down my face… I picked up my clothes from their pile on the floor. When I was clothed I walked back over to the bed and looked at Roza. She had a slight smile on her beautiful face. We could have worked things out, gotten together. But no, life seemed to have other plans. She would probably think I just wanted to have sex. I sighed. I only had one hour before I had to be at the airstrip.

~d~

Tears slid down my face as I thought about last night. I was sitting in one of the courts jets some thousands of miles over the world. I was not the only one who left lovers and friends and I wasn't the only one in tears. We all knew not every one would be coming back, seeing as another attack was predicted. I thought back to the letter I wrote Roza. Seeing as how it was dark and day time for us, she surely would have gotten it by now. I hoped she could forgive me. I back to earlier on the flight, when we were crossing some mountains near the court. I had seen a lone white figure standing on a cliff. I knew how he feels. A few more tears leaked out as we flew over St. Vladimirs to land, the place where everything began and the place where everything may end.


So i decided not to put my really badly written *lemon* in so it was a little shorter than original. Review :)
