I knew better than anyone else that Graduation was a very stressful time for both students and teachers alike. I kept asking myself WHY I offered to help out with everything, but looking at Dimitri made me think straight again. As if I could go one week without seeing Dimitri.
Dimitri had the job of sorting the invitations. Every invitation had been printed, but they still had to be folded and put into the envelope. My job was to put the stamps on them.
Our mouths were spit less, my fingers were sore, but I actually had fun. We had calculated that we had WAY to many stamps, so, when we had break, we gave them use.
We resorted to sticking them to my face. I had them everywhere, including my eyelids.
"You think we'll get in trouble for this?" I asked, half laughing.
He frowned. "I wouldn't think that it would concern you." He told me.
I shrugged. "I don't care much. I was just wondering."
He laughed, which wasn't so rare for him anymore, not since.
Kirova had walked past the window, and he tensed. I was fearless of her though, so I turned to the window, face on, and smiled and waved. Kirova was opened mouthed and staring at me, but in the end, she just shook her head and rolled her eyes. I supposed she didn't want to get involved.
I sighed and stuck another to my cheek happily. "I guess this means I'm worth something now." I said with a smile on my face.
Dimitri tilted his head. "What do you mean?" he asked.
I smiled on the inside. "Well, if I died right now, everyone would loose all these stamps. What a pity that would be."
He sighed and hugged me from behind. "You have always been worth something, Rose. I mean," he smiled. "who could live without the stubborn, strong, famous, Rosemarie Hathaway."
I rolled my eyes. I didn't really like him calling me by my full name, but he could get away with it….just this once.
"So," he continued, smiling down on me. "When you graduate, I was thinking…"
"Oh no." I said jokingly. "This can't be good."
He smirked. "I was thinking…" he continued. "That we might go to Russia for our wedding."
I smiled and thought about that. I had always wanted to see where Dimitri had come from, and I decided I would like nothing better.
"It sounds perfect." I said, turning on him. We smiled at each other, and leant in, and I tensed on the inside. I wanted to kiss him so much, so…
"Dimka!" I voice came from the door.
"Of course." I said under my breath and pulled away.
He sighed and turned to the door. "Tasha, hey. What's wrong?"
She laughed. "Do I really need an excuse to come say hi to my favourite guy?"
"Yes." I whispered again under my breath.
She ignored me. "So, what are you doing?" she asked and picked up an envelope.
"Leaving." I said and walked beside her, out the door.
DPOV
"Leaving." Rose said and pushed past Tasha. I knew how she felt, but I was more polite about it.
"What's her problem?" Tasha said.
I sighed. "I think I know. Sorry Tasha, but I got to go. See you later."
I tired to push past her. "Wait.' She said in a small voice. "You're right. I did have a reason for coming here. You see, I'm lonely. I need you Dimka."
She was moving closer to me, and I backed away. She turned sluttish, but she just looked like a blown up Barbie doll.
"Help." I said in a small voice.
RPOV
I couldn't believe Tasha. She was such a whore! She was trying to break us up, I was sure of it. She was doing it on purpose.
Well, at least we will go together to Russia. I thought to myself. She can't ruin anything there.
I really wanted to believe that, but I wasn't entirely there. It seemed like she could ruin anything.
I expected footsteps to come up behind me, and I did hear them, but they weren't form Dimitri.
"You should really leave him alone." Tasha said from behind me. "He doesn't love you. He's using you."
I turned around to her with an annoyed look.
"How long are you going to keep this up?" I asked, my head shaking slightly.
She smiled. "As long as you're alive. It'll be over soon."
Then, she ran at me.
OHH!! Sorry for the Cliff hanger.
Holidays are coming up soon, (two days), so I should be writing plenty more. Yay! Thanks for all you're reviews. You guys are keeping me going!
