Thank you for the reviews :) x
My alarm woke us both up the next morning.
"Dimitri, what is that God-awful noise?" Roza groaned, pulling the duvet up over her head.
"My alarm." I yawned, reaching over to turn it off. I sighed, and started to get out of bed. "C'mon Roza, we've got to get up." I said, groggily.
She yawned and sat up, rubbing her eyes and looking around.
"Dimitri?" She asked.
"Mmmm?" I said, retrieving the clothes that had been strewn around the floor.
"Can I have a shower?"
"Sure, I'll show you how to work it." She hopped out of bed, and I gulped. She was still naked, and I was hypnotised. She walked towards me and grabbed my hand.
"Wipe that drool off your chin and come help me shower." I grinned, and let her lead me into the bathroom.
We took a shower together, which took nearly an hour, and then spent another half an hour in bed. It was nearly half 8 by the time we were both dressed. We decided that she was to leave first and head back to her dorm so as not to raise suspicion. Even though I was not forbidden to have relationships with the students, we didn't want to flaunt it.
When the time came, I hated to see her go, but she was coming back over tonight, and I would see her in class this morning. I kissed her goodbye, and all but pushed her out the door – I really hated to see her go, but if I had let her stay any longer, we wouldn't have made it out the door in the next few hours, and I didn't want her missing any more classes. She had been gone for about half a minute, when my phone buzzed.
I miss you already ~ R xxxx
I grinned, and typed out a reply.
I miss you too, the apartment is too quiet without you ~ D xxxx
It was true; a deafening silence had descended on the apartment the moment she left.
I am literally counting down the minutes till 4 ~ R xxxx
Me too...505...~ D xxxx
I made my way down to the gym floating on cloud nine. The girl I was in love with loved me too. We had spent the last two days together, and they were the happiest days of my life. I never wanted her away from me, and the thought of her spending the day at school, then coming home to me made me dizzy with joy. It was like we were a real couple. With a start, I realised that was what we were. I hadn't even realised that I had made it to the gym, and was snapped out of my thoughts by Jesse and Keith arriving. I couldn't be bothered to set up all the equipment for circuit training, so I made them all run laps outside.
Roza arrived next, and shot daggers at Jesse and Keith. I was also a bit pissed that I hadn't been able to talk – kiss – her. When everyone had arrived, I had them running for nearly 40 mins before I said they could go in early. The kids all rushed off, excited about the thought of an extra half an hour before school.
A tap on my shoulder alerted me that not all the students had run off. Roza was behind me, grinning.
"Come on." She said, walking back into the gym. I followed her, glancing around first to make sure we were alone; we were.
She was waiting just behind the door, and grabbed my hand, rushing us into the women's changing room before locking the door, and pushing me up against it. She kissed me hard, her hands winding in my hair, deepening the kiss. I wrapped my arms around her hips, responding with just as much force. She broke for air first, but I leaned my forehead against hers, not wanting any space between us.
"I've missed you." She murmured, returning her lips to mine.
"I've missed you too."I said, in between kisses.
We stayed in the changing room right up until the start of the first lesson. Roza wanted to stay – and I wanted her too – but I didn't want her falling behind because of me. The rest of the day passed in a blur. I had a meeting with a few of the governors about funding issues, but luckily some of the rich parents made donations in return for protecting their children. By 1 I was starting my shift. For the first hour or so, I was walking with a guy called Nathan. He was ok, a bit stuck up, but we were getting on fine.
"Dude, what is wrong with you?" He asked suddenly. I looked up form my watch, confused. "You check you watch every five minutes! Time isn't going to move slower if you stop looking at it, you know."
"Oh, sorry." I hadn't realised I had been checking it that often. I was just eager for the shift to end, so I could see Roza.
"Whatever. What are you like, so eager for anyway?" I said nothing. "Is it a chick?" Again, I said nothing. "It so is! What's her name? Is she fit? Have you fucked her yet? Is she any good? Does she give head?" I was about to tell him to fuck off, when I heard a commotion a few meters away, just around the corner. "Dude, what's that?"
"I don't know. Just, shut up a minute." I started to run towards the noise, and I heard Nathan behind me. When I turned the corner, I saw one of the guards I was with the shops with – Darren. He was lying on the floor, unconscious with a leg wound. The dog he was with looked like he had been shot.
"What the fuck..." Nathan started to approach Darren, but I held him back.
"Some one's gotten in." I reached for my radio, and alerted the others that there was an intruder on sight, possibly armed. Within ten minutes, the school was in lock down, the students told to return to their dorms immediately, and all staff was on high alert. I sent a quick text to Roza, asking if she was ok. She was in her dorm, thank God. I said if she still wanted to, she could still come over, but I would collect her. Of course, she said yes. The security cameras were checked, and it looked like the same man from a few weeks ago; he was wearing a balaclava.
The grounds were searched, but no sign of the intruder. However, we knew he was still on sight, because there was only one exit – every member of security was around the perimeter, effectively making another fence of people inside the grounds. It was gone 8 when Janice came up to me and finally told me to go home. Seeing as I was up early to run a class, and had been working a long shift. Usually, I would have offered to stay on, but I wanted to see Roza. I told her to meet me at the door to her dorm building, and I escorted her back to my place. No one saw us, as they were searching the elementary campus at the time.
When we reached my apartment, she attacked me.
"I-was-so-worried-about-you." She said in between kisses. She held me close, resting her head in the crock of my neck.
"Please, Roza." I said, stroking her hair. "Don't worry about me." She gave me one of those looks, and led me to the sofa. We sat there, wrapped up in each other's arms for quite a while, before I heard her stomach rumble. I made us dinner, and we spent the rest of the evening just lounging around, making love multiple times, but we also snuggled up on my sofa and watched TV. When it got dark again, she grabbed my hand and took me into the bedroom. We had just recovered from slow, sensual intercourse, and I knew that we were not going to get up to anything. She climbed into bed, and patted the space next to her. I joined her and pulled her closer.
"I was worried about you too, you know." I whispered into her hair.
"Now, that is stupid." She said, kissing me neck.
She yawned, and snuggled closer.
"Night." She said, closing her eyes.
"Goodnight Roza."
"Mmmmm, I love you." She slurred, already falling asleep.
"I love you too."
"Belikov. Belikov. Are you there? Belikov!" A shrill voice woke me up. I looked at the clock.
2:29 am. I groaned and moved closer to Roza, hoping that whatever it was would go away soon.
"Belikov. There is a situation down in the senior dorms. BELIKOV!" I rolled over and felt around my bedside table, looking for my radio.
"What?" I groaned, still half asleep.
"There has been a break-in in the senior girls' dorm. I need you to get over here ASAP."
I was awake now. "Ok, give me ten minutes." Gently, trying not to wake Roza, I rolled out of bed, and got dressed into my uniform.
"Dimitri? Where are you going?" I had failed, and Roza was sitting up in bed, still half asleep.
"I'm needed. There has been a break-in. Go back to sleep, I'll be back soon." I walked over to her side of the bed and kissed her head. She got back under the covers, and fell back asleep.
I left her a note anyway, explaining where I had gone, and that I would lock the door. The campus would still be under lock down tomorrow, so she could stay here. I also left her the spare key, in case she wanted to leave.
When I got down to the campus, a chaotic sight awaited me. All the windows on the first three floors were shattered, the doors kicked in and one of the common rooms had smoke billowing out of it. All the students were standing opposite the building, huddling together. I spotted Janice examining the damage. I jogged over to her.
"Janice, what's going on?"
"Someone broke in. They made their way all the way up to the top floor, and they broke in to the rooms up there. They didn't take anything, or hurt anyone. They smashed all the windows and set the common room on fire on their way out."
"Any positive ID?" They had made their way all the way up to the top of the building, why didn't they take anything?
"It was the man that broke-in earlier. He still had the balaclava on, but the height and build match the man that tried to break-in a few weeks earlier."
"Any idea what they were looking for?"
"No. But it seems like he was searching for someone. The girls said he didn't look for anything, but wanted to see their faces. He didn't find the person he was looking for, so he left."
"Where is he now?"
"He escaped. Whilst security was heading over here, he climbed over the fence. No finger prints were left behind...It was the perfect crime."
"How did he get past the electric fence?"
"He cut the wires. How on earth someone missed a man hacking at 3inch thick wires is still a mystery to me."
There really wasn't much I could do. I interviewed the girls whose rooms were broken into, and the students were moved into the other senior girls dorm – the one Roza stayed in. The damaged building was taped off, and extra security was drafted in for the other dorms. Janice said I could go back to sleep, considering I was up early. She also gave me the day off – something about working too hard – and I wasn't complaining; I was dead on my feet. I stumbled into my apartment at nearly 6, and I crawled under the covers.
"Everything ok?" Roza slurred, as I wrapped my arms around her waist, pulling her closer, so her back was right against my chest.
"Mmmm, much better now." I said, falling back to sleep.
What do you think? x
