Lissa was the first to speak. "Oh. My. God!" She squealed. "No way! Rose, why didn't you tell me sooner! Oh my god, we're actually gonna be real sisters!" She squeals some more. Suddenly she stops squealing and hits her forehead. "How could I have been so stupid? It was so obvious you've been spending so much time together! Ah, we need serious girl time tomorrow, or tonight. No definitely tonight. The fire totally on now!" She squeals and hugs me so tight all I'm capable of doing is smile and say, "Can't breathe." She lets me go and takes a step back. "Oops, sorry." She gives me an apologetic smile.

My head snaps from Lissa to Rhea as she begins talking animatedly fast and extremely excited. Now I know where Lissa gets it. "It's about damn time you two! I always knew you two would end up together, but Andre," she looks at Andre now very serious. I give him a quick glance and he's looking at Rhea questioningly. I look back at Rhea as she begins talking very seriously, "If you hurt my baby girl, I will personally terrorize you the worst way you can possibly think of even though you are my son. Get it?"

Andre visibly gulps. "Got it."

"Go." She smiles innocently at him like she never threatened him at all. "Now get over here and give your new mama a hug." She smiles ecstatically at me and I walk into her outstretched arms immediately. I pull back and walk back over to Andre.

"What the hell just happened?" We all turn to look at a clueless Aaron. Lissa walks over and whispers something into his ear and he gives us all a disordered look. "We're they already dating though?" Lissa says something else and he gives us another incredulous look. "Seriously? Huh, I guess I was just always out of the loop. You two seemed like a couple."

"Aaron," everyone looks at Andre as he addresses Aaron, "You're an idiot." We burst out laughing at Andre's statement.

Our laughter comes up short when Eric says in a not so pleasant voice, "Andre, we need to talk, now." Eric turns and walks towards his and Rhea's wing of the house. I give Andre a horrified look as he follows after his father and he visibly gulps. He looks over his shoulder at me a nervous expression on his face. They disappear down the hall and now it's just four of us.

I'm still staring down the hall when someone wraps an arm around my shoulders giving me a half hug. "He'll be fine." I look up and I'm met with the concerned eyes of Rhea. I can tell by the way she shifts her eyes to the hallway that she's curious as to what Eric wants too.

"Well, Rose, I must say this again, I love your outfit!" Lissa says trying to get my attention away from the hallway.

"Thanks." I smile kindly.

"You do look lovely Rose. Where did you get this at?" Rhea asks looking me over.

"Andre bought it for me. He just gave it to me a little bit ago." I say shyly.

"Awe." Lissa and Rhea chorus.

Talk of my outfit got me curios about Lissa's. She's wearing an apricot colored pleated high low wrap dress. The front is short and stops right above her knees while the back is long and stops above her ankle. It's go a belt around the center of her stomach. She's got on black studded heels that make her just a little shorter than Aaron. The necklace she has on is her Tiffany necklace that Rhea had gotten her for her last birthday. On her wrist she had on the bracelet she got from Aaron that she always wears. Her ears had tiny diamond studs in them and I noticed she had on one thin gold band with one tiny diamond on the ring finger on her right hand (Outfit on profile).

"You look great too! I love your shoes." We laugh as we hear Aaron groan at the mention of shoes.

"Please don't start talking about shoes!" He groans again.

I hear laughter coming from the hall and we all look as Eric and Andre come back into the den. Eric pats Andre on the shoulder. "Remember what I said son." Andre nods his head and comes over to me taking my hand in his and kissing my cheek.

"As lovely as this night is turning out to be, Honey we have reservations to get to." Rhea says grabbing ahold of Eric's hand and pulling him towards the door. "Be safe kids, and have fun! See you tonight, if not tomorrow." She opens the door and her and Eric leave.

Lissa turns to me. "So is the fire still on for later?"

Andre looks at me confused and Aaron does the same to Lissa. "What fire?" Andre says the same time Aaron says, "You invited them?"

Lissa gives Aaron a pointed look but lets me tell Andre before she yells at Aaron. "Lissa and Aaron are building a fire on the beach tonight. Lissa invited us earlier. She wants you to bring your guitar."

"Oh, sure I can bring my guitar. Text us when you guys get back tonight and we'll make sure we show up soon." Andre says to Lissa.

Lissa nods smiling at Andre before turning and hitting Aaron across the shoulder. "What is wrong with you? Of course I invited them! Why wouldn't I?"

"Ow!" Aaron says rubbing his shoulder where Lissa hit him. "I thought it was just going to be me and you, that's all."

"Oh, sorry." Lissa kisses Aaron's lips. "Alright, I'll text you guys later. We all probably need to go. Have fun!" We head out the door in a group but split up when we reach the cars. Since Lissa and Aaron are only 15 and can't drive Rhea got them a driver and since Andre can drive and that's who I usually spend my time with he has his own car.

I turn to Andre as we pull out of the driveway in his Camaro. "So, what did your dad want?"

APOV

"Andre, we need to talk, now." My laughter dried up almost instantly when my father spoke. He sounded cold. I gulp as I start following him to his and my mother's wing. I turn around and I'm met with a horrified look from Rose. I know my nervousness is showing in my face because she becomes even more horrified if possible.

I follow my father quietly until we reach the bedroom. He opens the door and waits for me to walk in. The he follows after and shuts the door behind him. "What are you doing son?" He asks shaking his head.

I look at him trying to ponder what he's talking about. "What do you mean?"

He looks up and meets my eyes. "She's a Dhampir. You're a Royal Moroi."

I narrow my eyes when he says that. "What's that supposed to mean?" I half ask half yell at him.

His eyes are tender, caring. "I'm not trying to sound like a dick."

"Too late for that," I say under my breath.

He shakes his head at me. "I just want you to know how hard this is going to be for you two if your relationship surpasses high school. You'll be bombarded with Royal dick. And I don't want that to ruin who you are or who she is. You both have a personality that anyone could love. I don't want to see either one of you change because of the way your treated."

I un-narrow my eyes and soften up. "I know what it'll be like if we're together and I'm ready to face it."

He looks proudly at me. "I know you are son but are you ready to let Rose face it? She's got the personality any girl would kill to have but the real world could change that. Are you ready to let her go through that?" I lower my eyes to the ground thinking.

"I can't leave her Dad. It'll kill me, but if she's not ready then I will. I'll do whatever it takes to make her happy." I look back up and meet his eyes.

He pats my shoulder. "You're such a brave boy. Do you know that? Any girl would be lucky enough to have you."

"Maybe so but how was I lucky enough to have her?"

He shakes his head smiling softy. "That my son is a mystery." I laugh softly at his joke. We stand in silence for a few minutes. "Andre,"

"Hmm?"

"Look at me." His voice serious again. I turn my head quickly to look at him. "Rose is like my second daughter and if you hurt her in any way I will personally be sure to make it so you cannot have kids and I will disown you from the Dragomir family." I visibly gulped. "Got it?" I couldn't talk so I just nodded. "Good. Now let's get going." He slaps me on the shoulder and stand up.

He almost to the door when I blurt out, "I think I love her."

My dad stops instantly in his tracks and turns around to look at me, eyes wide. "What?" He says shocked.

"I think I love her," I say bolder.

"Well, that doesn't surprise me." He says shrugging his shoulders. "Come on son, we both have plans. We can talk more later if you want." He slings his arm over my shoulder and we head back to the den where everyone else is.

A few hours later

"That was delicious! Mmm, I loved it." She exclaimed as we walked out of the restraint. She kissed my cheek before grabbing ahold of my hand and pulling my fast towards the car. "Come on, let's go do something. Lissa hasn't text us yet. Let's go on an adventure!" She smiles as we reach the car. She drops my hand and wraps her arms around my neck. Almost if on instinct my hands wrap around her waist and I bend down and kiss her. Her hands slide down my arms and into my front pockets. I don't fully understand what she's doing until its too late. She pulls away from me and dangles my keys in her hand. "Can I drive?"

"Absolutely not! Give me the keys." I grab for the keys but she pulls them away before I can get a grip on them.

"Please?" She gives me her puppy dog eyes and her pouty lip.

"That's not gonna work this time." She doesn't say anything just stares at me like that until I crack. "Fine, you can drive." I sigh as I walk over to open the passenger door to get in.

Rose clears her throat and I look over at her right before I climb in. She gives me a look and then looks at her door. I sigh again as I walk around the front of the car and open her door up for her. "Why thank you kind man." She gives me her man eater smile as she climbs into the car. I shut her door then climb into my seat. She looks at me before saying, "Where to?"

"Doesn't matter. Let's go though." She throws me a playful glare then starts the car. In a matter of seconds we're on the road headed to god knows where.

"Where are you taking me" I ask a little scared because now there are no houses and just trees.

"Trust me on this one." She flicks her eyes toward me and smiles.

"I don't know," I say uneasy. She pouts her lips and looks at me from the side of her eye. "Fine."

We continue driving for another ten minutes when suddenly Rose pulls off the road. We drive another two minutes and Rose shuts the car off and climbs out of the car. I'm out in a flash behind her. "Where are we?" I ask looking around. All I see are trees.

"Follow me." She grabs my hand and pulls me through the woods. She comes to a complete stop about 500 yards from the car.

I'm behind her at first but when I come and stand beside her I'm amazed. "Whoa! Where are we?"

She turns her head and looks at me. "Remember that time I went on vacation with Mason and Eddie?" I nod my head saying yeah. "We came here to the Bahamas. We found this one night while we were out walking around. It's beautiful isn't it?"

Beautiful doesn't begin to describe it. "It's something alright." It looks like it came right out of a movie. The waterfall was absolutely gorgeous. I don't even know how to explain it. All the water followed down through the middle of a cliff. The cliff was green and mossy but still beautiful (Pic on profile).

Rose and I just stand there admiring the waterfall until my cell phone goes off and breaks the silence. "Hello?" I say into the phone once I answer it.

"Hey, we're on our way back to the house now. Where are you?" Lissa's sweet voice says through the phone.

I look at Rose and then at the waterfall and smile to myself. "We took a detour. We're on our way now." I can see Rose looking at me.

"Alright! See you guys soon. Love you!"

"Love you too Liss." I hang up my phone and look at Rose. "Liss and Aaron are on their way home."

She nods giving the waterfall one last look before heading to the car. I jog to catch up with her and then I take her hand into mine and his it. "Hey, we'll make a trip out here one night and just sit. How's that sound?" She smiles instantly at the thought.

"You mean it?" She says excitedly.

"Of course. We can come out any night you want." We stop walking when we reach the car. Rose turns to me and gives me a quick kiss on the lips before climbing into the driver's seat. I shake my head laughing before climbing in to the passenger seat. I think of how Rose looked while we were standing by the waterfall. She seemed peaceful. Better than she had since the dreams started. Speaking of the dreams I'd have to ask her about them later.

Right now I was content with knowing that my family had our backs in our relationship, Rose seemed okay for the time being, and I was falling in love with the girl of my dreams.
