A LITTLE BIT FLUFFY SO I'LL TRY TO GET ANOTHER CHAPTER UP SOON.

I SWEAR I AM LIVING ON THE SLEEPING SCHEDUALE OF A VAMPIRE.

On the drive home Dimitri was sitting in the passenger seat next to my mom. It was a short drive but my mother looked so exhausted I was surprised she could keep her eyes open. Lissa and Christian sat on either side of me. Everyone had fallen asleep except for my mother and I. When we got to our townhouses my mother stopped the car and woke everyone up. We got out as quickly as we could and went inside my living room to wait for my mother to park the car. When I got in I saw that most of the boxes were gone and two sofa were sitting in the middle of the room. Christian was the first one to speak.

"I'm going to go to bed early today." He yawned and left for the kitchen. I heard the connecting door close. I went over to Lissa

"You should get some sleep too." Lissa gave me a sleepy nodded and walked into the room that was in the same spot as Dimitri's. She took that room so I could use the upstairs for my baby. I walked over to one of our new sofas and lay on it. I wanted to take a nap so I wouldn't have to talk to my mother or Dimitri but I couldn't even pretend to sleep. Dimitri sat on the second coach, I tried not to look at him. He didn't say anything for a while.

"What are we going to do?" I couldn't tell if he was talking to me or himself. The question was so vague I wouldn't have been able to answer it anyways. He continued more sure of himself. "Do you want me to do anything Rose?" His question this time was still very vague and I had no answer for him. I didn't answer or look at him. He asked another question. "If you don't want me to be here I can go back to the academy next school year, but." His voice had a hint of desperation in it. "I want to help you, I want to be real dad. Not just like- like my father."

I knew what he was talking about. Both of us never had real father figures in our life, and my mother was just now coming around. At least until she found out I was pregnant. She never said anything but in the car when she looked at me in the rear view mirror, I saw disappointment in her eyes. I tried to keep my response brief.

"No you don't have to do that. I told you it was you because you deserve to know. I didn't think you would actually want anything to do with my, our kid." I finally looked at him. I wish I never did. I seen hope in his eyes mixed with a type of sadness I couldn't put my finger on. His lips curled into a half smile. I heard the door open but I didn't get up. My mother walked in.

"Rose, I hope you don't mind but Lissa gave me the spare room upstairs until tomorrow. I'm going to go to sleep early tonight." The next thing she said was only her being polite, she probably was too tired to help anyone with anything. "If you need anything you can ask me." She gave me a tired smile.

"Don't worry you can stay as long as you need to, but I'll be fine, go sleep you need it." She nodded and walked up stairs. Dimitri stood up.

"Do you want anything to eat?"

"No thanks comrade." He smiled and disappeared into the kitchen. I made myself comfortable on the coach. Although I wasn't tired I started to slip away and fall asleep.

I couldn't tell how much later it was but I felt myself being moved. I started to open my eyes. I saw Dimitri with a warm smile on his face. I think we were going upstairs. He looked down at me, I couldn't tell what he was saying because I was falling asleep again. I felt myself being tucked into a bed and then I didn't feel anything at all.

I saw the blackness around me fade into the giant hall that was in the ski lodge I had went to last winter break. I saw Adrian leaning against the wall a few feet in front of me. He looked a little tired, but I guess that's why he was a sleep too.

"Oh little dhampir, the Russian knocks you up and you try to kill him with a screw driver." He was being sarcastic and if I wasn't so emotionally drained I probably would have laughed. Instead I just ran and gave him a hug. "I visited you yesterday but I couldn't pull you into any of my dreams." He kissed me on the forehead. "I'm assuming he knows now?" He said it as a statement but he was asking for my confirmation.

"Dimitri and my mother both found out while I was out cold, and- and- he- I told him it was his" I felt tears coming. "He told me he want to help me and be there for his kid and he changed jobs again. And" I stopped myself before the tears in my eyes spilled over. I needed to stop crying all the time. "I don't know if I want him to just be there when he visits and just leave. I want him either there or not there." Adrian help my hands. He seemed slightly amused by my unstable emotions.

"Rose he's your next door neighbor. I don't know how he would just visit on Christmas and Easter." I shook my head.

"He is getting a new assignment tomorrow so he's going to have to move again." I didn't want to but my brain was bring back memories from only about a month ago. "You saw me last month you were the one who found me in the bathtub." I had stolen pain medication from the school nurse and overdosed on them. Adrian and Lissa broke into my room later that day and found me unconscious in the bathroom. "I don't want him to hurt my kid too." I saw that memory bring pain to Adrian as well. He hugged me again. I let a tear out while he couldn't see. He whispered into my ear.

"As much as I hate the guy for keeping you from me and leaving you like that, I think he really does regret leaving and he would do whatever you wanted him to. If he moves you can tell him you don't want him to help. He would listen to you. " I pulled away and wiped my cheek. I tried to find any indication that he was lying but he wasn't. "You don't have to forgive him, in fact you shouldn't but…" I was about to say something but I was ripped away from the spirit dream.

I was sitting upright in bed surrounded by a room that was mostly empty. Nausea overwhelmed my sense. I got out of my bed and darted for what I hoped was a bathroom. I barely made it to the toilet. I threw up repeatedly for what felt like hours. I had no energy to get up so I just lay on the floor. I don't know long, I just lay there. Someone came into my room.

"Rose, oh shit where did you go now?" It was my mother. My throat felt dry but I spoke just loud enough for her to hear me.

"In here." A few moments later she was standing in the bathroom doorway looking at me with an unreadable expression. She walked over and flushed the toilet. Then she knelt down beside me and offered me her hand. I stood up slowly she rubbed my back.

"Wash up and come downstairs afterward. You need to get some food into you." When she left the bathroom I realized I probably haven't eaten anything in a few days. I was starving. I brushed my teeth and splashed some water on my face. I went downstairs to get something to eat when I noticed no one was in the house.

I decide to check next door. I went to the door in the dining room to see if anyone was at Christian's house.
