Chapter 8

Dimitri, you remember when we had sex? Well you fucking knocked me up so this is me telling you. but you would've already known if you hadn't left me for that whore!

Okay so telling Dimitri would be harder than I thought. Seriously how do you tell the guy who dumped you that you're having his baby?

I mean seriously, I felt so desperate. I had this feeling that he would hate me because of this baby. It would ruin his career, my career, and we would always be looked down on. Maybe he didn't need to know… No I already put this off long enough and I needed to stop taking myself out of this.

Someone knocked on my door and the bond told me it was Lissa. She was here to help me tell Dimitri. And she had food.

I opened the door and yelled "LISSA! FOOD! YAY!" she laughed and came in. "I figured you hadn't eaten since your trial yesterday." I could tell she was avoiding the subject of Dimitri but I didn't really care, I was hungry.

"So… Rose, umm how are you.. how are you.." she began. "How am I going to tell him?" I finished. She nodded. "Well it would be easy if I could call him up and say hey Dimitri, I'm having your baby. That'd be a great phone call. But I don't even have his phone number. So I could send him a letter or an email. Which sucks but considering I don't even know what to say. Ughh this is a mess! "

"I think a letter would be better. And why do you think I'm here? I'll help you write it." Lissa said simply.

I smiled gratefully and continued eating. Lissa read the letter I was working on before and laughed. "Oh Rose this letter is so like you. but maybe you should just be blunt. And keep the hate out of it. This is for your baby Rose, not you."

I touched my still flat stomach "you're right." I could do this, I could do it all for this baby. My last piece of Dimitri.

We got to work but it didn't take long, it was a simple letter.

Dimitri,

There is no other way to say it, I'm pregnant. And it can't be anyone but yours. I'm shadow kissed so the doctor assumed that affected my body in many ways. I just thought you deserved to know.

Rose

We sent the letter on our way to lunch. Many of my classmates asked about me graduating. And why I tested early. I obviously wasn't going to tell them the truth, even though it would get out eventually. I told them that Alberta thought it would look good on my record if I tested early. I still had to go to other classes but my guardian classes I didn't. Instead I would take a few shifts and help out around campus. Everyone was awed. I was so happy for this solution because I could be a guardian and still have my baby.
