Hey Everyone, so since I did this chapter so soon I expect lots of reviews. No pressure!
*Disclaimer: I do not own anything only the plot for this story*
Talking to Kirova
RPOV
I walked into Kirova's office and immediately she looked up from whatever she was doing. She gestured for me to sit down and I obliged sinking down into one of the comfy chairs in her office.
"What brings you here Rose", she asked as she looked through her glasses that sat on the end of her nose. I looked her straight in the eye.
"I have come to tell you that I think it is inappropriate what Tasha Ozera is doing to Dimitri Belikov. He has come into training all grumpy and that is not helping him catch up. This needs to stop now otherwise Dimitri is going to have some serious problems", I managed to get out before she interrupted me.
"Rose I understand your concern and I will most certainly speak to Miss Ozera. Mr Belikov has already come to talk to me about this and I hear that this morning he hurt her..."
I interrupted her this time.
"He did it out of anger that she had caused", I said now standing up. I know it probably seemed weird for me standing up for a novice. But although we had difficulties when we first met we had now become friends and I don't like my friends being upset about some girl who thinks she owns the world.
"Rose, again, I understand your concern and will see to it as soon as possible", I nodded and walked out the door.
As I walked back to my dorm I wondered if Tasha had confronted Dimitri again. As I turned the corner I saw that Tasha had cornered Dimitri and was talking to him in a hushed tone. I was about to ask what was going on when Tasha lent in and kissed him. Dimitri's eyes lit up and he looked like he wasn't enjoying this. I started trying to push her away but obviously was being a softy and not pushing hard enough. They had obviously not noticed me because when I walked to them and pulled Tasha off Dimitri she was so surprised. I through her to the ground and just stood over her glaring at her.
"Tasha, this has to stop. Can't you tell when you are not like?" I asked her still glaring at her. She looked up at me innocently.
"But Dimitri does like me, he just doesn't know it", was this girl crazy. He had punched her and given her a black eye which was looking pretty bad right now.
"Tasha, just go. You are too stupid to realise that not everyone in the world bows down to you", she glared at me and walked off towards her room. I turned around to see Dimitri just standing there stunned.
"Hey, are you alright comrade", I asked. He nodded and pushed himself off the wall.
"I better be heading back", he said and turned around. It was only now that I realised that he was limping. I walked up to him and placed a hand on his shoulder. He stiffened under my touch.
"Not before we take a look at that leg or foot or whatever. What did Tasha do to hurt you? How did she hurt you?" I knew that Dimitri couldn't hit a girl unless they were Strigoi so the last question was kind of stupid but the others still stood.
"It's my ankle and she tripped me over and then pinned me against the wall", he didn't bother answering my last question obviously knowing it was a stupid one. His ankle ay.
"Alrighty then, come on. We'll head back to my dorm and I can take a look at that ankle", I put an arm around is broad shoulders, which was hard since he had a few inches on me and helped him back to my dorm. Once inside a forced him to sit on the couch while I bent down to take a look at his ankle. He was staring at me but I chose to ignore him. His ankle was slightly swollen so he must of just rolled on it funny when she tripped him up. Nothing too serious though.
"Looks like it is quite swollen, I'll go get you some ice. Nothing serious though so you just sit there and I'll be right back", I turned toward the kitchen and went straight towards the freezer. I found some ice and walked back out. Dimitri was fiddling with his hands. Obviously embarrassed that he was beaten by a girl. Poor guy, I would be ashamed as well.
"Here we are comrade. This should help ease the pain", I said in a soft voice. He looked up at me with sad eyes. What could possibly be the matter.
"Rose, why can I never hit a girl", he whispered so quiet that I had to lean in slightly to here it.
"Comrade, have you forgotten that you punched Tasha the other day", he shook his head.
"But ever since then I haven't been able to even push her away", he looked so sad a vulnerable I felt like pulling him into a hug. Instead I just sat on the couch and patted my lap. He looked confused for a second so I just sighed.
"Do you want me to put ice on your ankle or not", understanding lit up his eyes and he shifted so his back was on the arm rest and his ankle on my lap. I pressed the ice against it and saw him relax.
"Comrade, I think you are just too much of a softy. I can help you learn how to punch a girl if you want", this sounded really lame but it was the best I could come up with. Plus he could start by actually trying to punch me.
"In the morning you can start on the punching bag. I will draw a girl with my awesome artistic skills and then you can practice punching the bag with the face on it", he grinned at my idea and I knew I had done well. This was so going to help boost his confidence and I was only hoping that Kirova would sort out this whole Tasha thing. It had really gone too far now.
DPOV
As my foot rested on Rose's lap I couldn't help feel a little better. When I had told her why I was sad I had expected her to laugh at me and leave me to wallow in my emotions but instead she had comforted me some what and offered to help. I had never expected the Rose Hathaway to have a soft side. As I relaxed into the couch I slowly felt myself drift off to sleep. I dreamt of lots of things but one thing stayed there the whole time. Rose, or Roza as I called her in my thoughts. It suited her so well.
I felt myself being shaken awake softly and opened my eyes to look into the big brown eyes of Rose.
"Dimitri, wake up you are going to be late. You overslept", did that mean I had skipped training with Rose? I jumped off the couch and made for the door before I realised that my ankle still hurt and I stumbled.
"Woah there, Comrade. You might need to take it easy. I think you should come with me to the doctor. Are you sure Tasha only tripped you up", she asked me cautiously. Tasha had only tripped me up but with my enormous height who knows what could have happened. I hobbled with Rose's help to Doctor Olendski and waited patiently while she examined my ankle. It turns out that it is sprained not badly but she gave me crutches and a late slip for class. As I hobbled out with Rose. She said she had to leave for duty and I had to make my way by myself. I was a little way down the hall when someone stepped into my path. I looked towards the person and found myself looking at someone that I had seen recently. Tasha Ozera was blocking my way to class.
Duh Dun Duuuuuuuuuh! What is Tasha going to do next. Poor Dimitri, I hope he gets better soon!
Here is the list of people!
