Sorry for the long absence, been working on my other fanfiction. I suck. Anyways, here's this juicy chapter to sink your teeth in! :D

Disclaimer: I don't own Vampire Diaries or Vampire Academy.

Damon POV

Alright I admit it, I'm whipped.

The big recovered badass human killer is in love with a human too. But it's not like its' the first time, I just never really thought that it would happen to me again.

But I tried to stop her from distracting me on the plan to kill Klaus. We failed at the plan but we did kill his brother Finn, who was a total loser.

My phone rang, distracting me from my thoughts. I got it from my pocket and didn't bother to look at who was calling me. I knew who it was.

"Hey." I said, with a lazy grin plastered on my face.

"What's the tone for? You miss me already?" A silky voice said, sounding amused.

My face dropped instantly. Katherine.

"Not in a million years. And why are you calling me?" I said, in my usual sarcastic tone. I was sitting on the loveseat and naturally drinking my whiskey.

"Because I've heard that you're having a bit of trouble with Klaus." She said. I sighed.

"We're fine. Just go on and enjoy your little vacation with your compelled servants by your side." I said, smiling widely.

"Fine, I'll let you get back to your girlfriend." She said. How does she know that?

I heard her chuckle and hang up. Whatever.

Then I got another call, I perked up and expected to see Rose on my phone but it was actually Elena. Damn.

Rose POV

After a nice casual talk with Adrian, which never happens, I went to the gym to go work out which I need!

I put my long hair in a ponytail and I had on a work out bra and some sweats. I went to the table to go get my punching gloves; I put them on and stood in front of the punching bag.

Any anger directed at Lissa or Dimitri will be gone after this. This is my time to just let out everything.

I narrowed my eyes at the punching bag and swung at it. I grunted. I did it again, harder. With every punch I threw at it memories came swarming back at me.

I landed on top of Dimitri after an intense spar and smiled widely.

"I won." I declared. He smiled and looked at me with those warm brown eyes.

"You did." He said, rolling his eyes. I grinned. "So you admit it? Huh." I said, biting my lip seductively.

My hand traveled around his torso and moved lower. Dimitri gasped and looked at me with lust.

"We shouldn't." He said, looking panicked but still mesmerized at my hand. "I know." I said.

Then I kissed him and the rest was a lovely make out session then I went to my dorm.

Every touch, every kiss, was a lie. At this point my knuckles were bleeding a bit and I had tears streaked on my face.

Harder, harder, I punched. Another memory.

We were laughing like best friends should laugh.

"So you really not interested in anyone?" She said, hinting a smile. I rolled my eyes and ate another chip.

"Nope." I lied. I shrugged my shoulders and continued to eat. I snuck out to see Liss again.

Lissa sighed and decided to eat some chips too. "Well that's a shame; Christian has a friend who just came to Court." She said.

"Really?" I said, faking curiosity and placing my chin on my knees. I wasn't interested in any other guys; most of them were just douche Moroi that wanted sex. The ones that were good just didn't seem eye-catching to me.

The only guy I was really, really, interested in was one I could never have. I couldn't help but think about him either.

Dimitri.

He's my mentor. It's obviously wrong to feel the way I'm feeling about him but I just can't help it.

"Yeah, his name is Alex Dicarpio, he knows him from his aunt, he's supposed to be okay looking from Christian but since Christian is a boy he really doesn't know anything." She said.

"Italian? Ooo he could make me amazing spaghetti every day." I said, pretending to dream about it.

She chuckled and said, "I know right." And I noticed that she was trying to conceal something from me that she was reading.

"What are you hiding Liss?" I said, trying to reach the thing. She looked panicked and hid the papers.

"Nothing..." She said trying to act normal. She was a horrible liar.

"Give." I said, opening my palm. Her face turned pink and she nervously handed them to me.

I read the letters and my eyes were bulging every time I caught the word "love".

Oh my God.

"Lissa, are these LOVE LETTERS?" I said, gaping at her. She looked down and said, "Maybe."

"And from….Christian! " I laughed so hard I couldn't breathe. "Oh my God! This is the best day of my life; I totally have to tease him about this." I said, between breaths.

She laughed too a bit. "No, Christian told me to hide them especially from you." She said, pouting.

"But look at this." I said, tracing the lines of a song title from Rihanna. We found Love.

She and I burst out laughing just like how we began and that was probably the best night I ever had with her.

I kneeled down in exhaustion and looked at the ground. I couldn't think, I couldn't move, and my knuckles I guessed were severely injured or something.

"Rose!" Someone said, a familiar voice….who was it?

I looked up at him and realized who it was.

Christian.

"Are you okay, you look….really bad." He said, with a worried and confused look on his face.

"I'm fine." I said, wiping my face with my hands. And taking off my gloves.

"You don't look okay. Come on I'll help you up." He said, handing me his hand.

I hesitantly took it and staggered up. He looked at my eyes and was concerned.

"These are the times I wish I had healing abilities…" He said, almost saying Lissa's name.

I guess he knew then, most likely Lissa told him and he figured the rest out on his own.

"It's okay, just blood, I can clean it up." I said, getting the first aid kit on the table.

"No, let me." He said. I've never seen this side of Christian towards me but it was kind.

"Thanks." I said, surrendering my pride.

He got a cotton ball and put alcohol on it. "It's nice to see you Rose." He said, smiling sadly.

"You too, although this is an unusual greeting." I said, smiling.

He chuckled and said, "Yeah, I guess." I tried not to wince at the stinging so I made up conversation.

"How did you find me anyways?" I said. He threw away the cotton balls and went to go get bandaids while I sat in a chair and waited.

"I was trying to find someone." He said, showing anxiety for one millisecond, and then changing his expression.

"Oh." I said, kinda confused. "Aren't you supposed to be with Lissa?" I asked, as if it was nothing.

He looked surprised at my mention with her then looked mad. "I'm not her pet puppy Rose, I have a life too." He said, looking upset but still helping me with my cuts.

"A lot of people ask you that don't they?" I guessed, looking at him. He looked taken aback at my accuracy and agreed.

"Well they shouldn't. I didn't mean to put it like that I was just asking." I said, I didn't want another person to hate me.

He shook his head. "It's my fault, I just get so irritated that everyone always expects me to be with her, I love her and she understands that I'm not that attached but people still think I should always be with her." He confessed, showing relief.

"Must feel good to say that huh?" I said, grinning. He smirked, "Definitely."

After he was done, I thanked him again. He made a joke and walked away. I also noticed he never asked me why I was crying. That's one of the reasons I liked him.

I got dressed and realized that I haven't called Damon today. Thinking of him made me smile again and made me think that I don't need anyone but him.

I dialed his number and put my phone to my ear while walking to my room.

"Hey." He said, it sounded like he was practicing that for a while to me.

I laughed. "Have you been practicing your greetings again?" I teased, grinning.

"No." He lied.

"If you say so." I said, biting my lip from stopping to smile in front of all these Moroi.

Christian POV (That's a first!)

I was shocked to see Rose in that state. I've never seen her like that. I always remembered her calm and enjoyable.

But when I looked at her I realized she looked like she's been through a lot. And I couldn't say it was Lissa's fault because I know she can't do that.

I helped Rose clean up her cuts and told her about what's been bothering me lately. And it was a nice talk. I wouldn't admit it to her but I missed her.

I assumed that I was the only one who really knew about why she left. Right when she did Guardian Belikov was acting strangely, I guessed that he was worried about Rose as a student or something but I realized it was so much more.

I instantly knew that Rose loved him and he loved her because of well, everything!

The way he looked at her, she looked at him, when she left how Dimitri was looking so heartbroken and most of all, guilty.

I realized that Dimitri had a part to do with her leaving. Now with Lissa, that was the easy part, I knew how she's been treating Guardian Belikov, I wasn't jealous of course because I knew that that would never happen but I knew that from Rose's point of view, it would mean a lot more.

So it kind of clicked. Lissa and Guardian Belikov were both part of Rose's absence over the past few weeks or so.

And I was a bit ashamed of Lissa because of it. She was blinded by the connection with protecting Guardian Belikov while he was trying to ignore Rose.

After I knew, I gave him cold looks and shaked my head at him. It was half- teasing, half- being serious.

He was confused but I bet he really knew what he's done.

And now since Rose is back I'll be her friend and make sure she doesn't leave again.

Rose POV

There was something about Damon that just pulled to me. He was everything a girl could want, funny, sexy, and so much more.

And I think I love him. After only knowing him with calls and text I actually loved him.

And it was amazing to think that I could have feelings for someone other than Dimitri. It was like isolation to me.

While talking to Damon about Elena the Bitch I bumped into this tall dude.

"What the hell?" I said, almost dropping my phone.

Then I realized it was Dimitri. He looked at me and also realized it was me.

"Roza…." He said, calling me his nickname for me. Now that got me very angry.

"I'm gonna have to call you back Damon." I said, looking straight at Dimitri's confused expression of me mentioning Damon.

Then I decided to have some fun with the bastard, Dimitri.

"Oh, okay, call me back anytime." He said.

"Alright, love you." I said, not being scared at saying it, in front of Dimitri too who looked so destroyed. I heard silence from the phone and I hanged up.

"See that Guardian Belikov, I've already met someone whose way better than you, happy?" I said, smirking at his guardian mask but it was already falling I could sense jealousy and anger.

"Who was that?" He said, expecting an answer. "None of your business." I said, anger laced in my voice.

I went to my room and left him standing there with a face with mixed emotions.

Then I called Damon back, and I felt a bit guilty that he shouldn't have heard it like that, I should've told him when the time was right, but I couldn't help but do it.

This time he wouldn't pick up.

I personally think that that chapter was the longest I've ever done. And I kinda liked the end. Tell me what you think! Reviews! Or else I'll make someone die! LOL jk. See you next time!
