"Mason?" I asked
Mason stood there with his red hair and blue eyes, giving me the smile I had missed so much.
"No, sorry. You are mistaking me as someone else. I am not Mason" he said
"Then what's your name?"
"Micah" he said. (AN-didn't expect that,did you?)
"Oh, sorry" I said, moving past him
"Wait , are you Rose?" he asked
"Yes," I said , unsure how he knew my name.
"Oh, Adrian was talking about you" he said. I grinned.
"Oh, so you are a friend of Adrian"
"Yes"
"Rose" Dimitri called, as he made his way towards me.
He stopped puzzled about who I was talking to.
"Micah, this is my best friend Dimitri. And Dimitri this is Micah, Adrian's friend"
They greeted each other. Micah soon said goodbye and we walked to the car.
"Micah reminds me of Mason" Dimitri said
"yes, he does" I agreed.
"Where to now?" I asked
"now your surprise" he said
"Come on then, let's go" he said."I am going to blindfold you"
:He blindfolded me despite my protests and started driving again.
After some time, I felt cool breeze blowing. Wherever we were, there was a lot of birds cause there was a lot of chirping. Dimitri stopped somewhere. He got down and I heard him open my door. He helped me get down and then he gathered me in his arms, bridal style. "I am not going to let you slip and fall on your birthday" he explained. I nodded, still wondering where we were. I heard the gurgling of a stream as he walked to wherever he was taking us. Now, the gurgling was all around me so I knew he was wading through water. He set me down on something, so I was still dry. He opened my blindfold. I slowly opened my eyes.
And I gasped.
All around me was water. I was sitting on a flat rock. I let my feet down not caring about the dress.
"do you like it?" he asked
"yes, of course I do" I said
"I wish we can spend the whole day here." I said
"we are going to" he said
"what?" I asked. "aren't you going to meet with Tasha?"
"No, I called her and cancelled our plans."
"oh" I said, a little more happy than I should have been.
He sat next to me, his arms wrapped around me. We talked and talked.
"do you remember when we were small we came to this brook, but it was a different part of it" he said
"yes" I said. "come, lets go see that part" I said, getting up. I took off my heels and started wading through the water. Dimitri came behind me. The brook turned in another direction. I turned around the corner. All around us, trees swayed in the cool breeze making my hair blow in different directions.
"here it is" I said
"remember, you stole one of my pebbles and so I was chasing you and we fell down the river." He said
I laughed, remembering
I sat down on the side off the river. I pulled him to sit next to me.
Soon, we were teasing each other. Apparently, I teased him too much because his hands slid from my shoulders to my waist. He started tickling me. I ran off into the forest with him following me. Our laughter echoed through the forest. I turned around to see if he was still following me. He was not. I slowed down. I was in a drier part of the jungle. The dried leaves crunched under my bare feet. I walked cautiously not wanting him to jump from behind a tree.I came to a sloppy region. If I walked down it I would land in the river. Trees were to my left side. Enjoying the view, I walked slowly. Suddenly, someone grabbed me and pulled me towards them. I reacted instinctively, pushing my elbow in their gut. The person let go, groaning and slipped. He fell down the sloppy part grabbing me. We both slid down the mud. He pulled me closer. Dimitri and I fell in the river with a splash. I laughed, wading to the water to hold on to a rock in the middle of the water. The water was much deeper, upto my chest was nowhere to be seen.
"Dimitri?" I called
No reply.
"Dimitri" I called again.
Suddenly, Dimitri appeared in front of me, making me bang my back on the rock in fright
I tried slapping him on his face. He warded me off with his hands, laughing. I pushed him. He pushed me beck. I noticed the position we were in suddenly. Dimitri and I were pressed together, his arms around me to keep me from struggling and my back against the rock. I could only move if he moved. My heart raced. He seemed to notice the position too. Our laughter died off. He stared at me silently. Our lips were inches apart. He shifted. He was a little closer now. I stared into his eyes. And then I reached up to kiss him.
He kissed me back, one hand slipping down to my waist and the other sliding up to my neck. I wound my arms against him for support. We kept kissing and kissing and kissing. His tongue explored my mouth and I moaned. He pushed against me more, making my stomach flatten against his abs and my chest presses against his. I finally pulled away for breath. We both stood there breathing heavily. "That wasn't supposed to happen" he said
"I know" I said, hurt that he could see reason so soon. My head was reeling from the kiss.
He stared at me for some time and then he moved off.
We walked back in silence, our earlier mood gone. There was a heavy sexual tension in the air. We didn't speak to each other on our way back. It was raining again. Dimitri stopped in a shop to buy some coffee. I stared at his back. What is happening? i thought. Now I don't know how we can regard each other. Are we best friends or does he feel a little more towards me?. I loved him but I don't think in that way. This was just some stupid crush. Get a hang of yourself, Rose.
Dimitri came back. He handed me my coffee only sound was me blowing on my hot coffee.
A figure tapped on my window. I lowered it.
"Hey" Adrian said
"Hi,Adrian" I said
Adrian didn't say anything narrowing his eyes as he stared between me and Dimitri. And then he went back to his cheery self. "why don't you come to my house?" he said.
After a lot of protests to which Adrian didn't agree, me and Dimitri went to his house. The whole place was lit with candles.
"no current" Adrian explained.
"great" I said
Mia and some of Adrian's other friends were there.
Mia was flirting with Dimitri when Adrian dragged me away to a quite cornr of the room.
"Can I ask you a question" he asked
"sure" I said, motioning him to go ahead
"Do… do you like Dimitri in a different way..I mean do you love him?"
"I…I don't know" I said
"I don't know either" he said, staring at me
After some time, he said "when you both are around each other, your auras glow bright like the sun. I am sure its brighter than the sun. I was almost blinded when I looked at it tonight."
I remembered him narrowing his eyes at me and Dimitri in the car.
"I don't know" I said again
"You should know, Rose. I am pretty sure you love him. And I am surer that he loves you back"
"but…that's not possible…Tasha…" I stammered
"Tasha is not fit for Dimitri. But you are. Make your mind soon Rose. He's not going to wait for you forever" he said
And with that, Adrian Ivashkov left me alone to tend to the other guests. The whole time I kept thinking about what Adrian said. Dimitri never spoke to me. We left soon. The car ride was silent.
I ate dinner and I went to our room. Dimitri was doing something in his diary. I walked to the bed and laid down. He kept the diary under his pillow and went to take a bath. I slowly reached for his diary. I knew it was wrong but I couldn't help myself. I opened the page he had kept a bookmark on. In it, there was the paper with my name on, a ring I had given him fro his birthday and every incident he had had with me. I read everything until Dimitri switched the shower off. I kept his diary back under his pillow and got up to take a shower. I
Laying back against the pillow after my bath was heavenly. My mind was reeling from what happened today. I was confused. Slowly, in the speed of a turtle, I sorted things in my head. And then I realized it. I had known it all along and I had thought I was wrong. Adrian was just a conformation, I realized it now.
I didn't love Dimitri Belikov. I was in love with him.
