I don't know what's upsetting my roza, but I don't like it. I took her to the back of the boutique and set her down on the couch and sat next to her. She's beautiful even when she's crying. STOP CONTROL YOURSELF BELIKOV, CAN'T YOU SEE SHE'S HAVING AN EMOTIONAL CRISIS? I looked at the time on my watch and cursed myself; Christian is going to be showing up at anytime. I had met him the night of the party. It was right after leaving the party.

*flashback*

"That went well I guess," I thought to myself' "I still can't believe that bastard" I'm pulled out of my thoughts from a voice behind me, "what you did for rose was pretty cool man," a guy behind me said. He was tallish, not my 6'7" mind, more around 6'1", he wore a white shirt and a leather jacket. "You know her?" I asked the guy. He just kind of shrugged. He walked up to me, "my name is Christian Ozera."

"Dimitri Belikov" I answered. We walked together and became fast friends afterwards we made plans to meet up today.

*end flashback*

I looked at the beautiful girl in front of me, "hey roza, I'm going to go check on something, ok? I'll be right back." I felt guilty leaving but I had to wait for Christian.

I showed up at the mall and almost groaned, I hate the mall, but that might be rose and Lissa's fault. I have nightmares of following them through the mall, carrying bags, waiting on them. I went to the little Russian boutique that Dimitri told me about and saw him near the back, when I got close I heard him say, "Hey roza, I'm going to go check on something, ok? I'll be right back." He turned and jumped when he saw me. "Is rose back there?" I asked peering around him. He still seemed surprised to see me so I squeezed past him, but when I saw her I stopped in my tracks. She was a broken mess, she was still sobbing, and her hair was a mess. She looked less healthy than when I last saw her, if that was possible, it had only been a few days. "Rose?" I whispered. She just whimpered a response. I turned on Dimitri, "what did you do?" my voice full of venom. He looked the good amount of shocked. He opened his mouth to say something, but I cut him off, "don't." I rushed to her side, "rose? Rosy? What's wrong?" she sniffled and pulled her head up, "my mom knows now." I knew what she meant immediately. Janine was not the best at handling surprises. "Does he know?" I asked her nodding at the imbecile in the doorway; he still looked confused and a little jealous. She shook her head, "no, but now I have to tell him, so thanks for that" she said shooting me a glare. I turned toward the guy in question, and saw him edging toward her, idiot. I looked her right in the eye, "you don't have to tell him if you don't want to. You don't have to tell anyone. Now come on, you're spending the night," I said helping her up. When rose passed him she said to him, "I'll call you Dimitri, thank you. I just needed to cry, so… um...thanks."

I called over my shoulder, "she's my cousin by the way!" you could see everything click together in his little brain, I turned to rose, "so rosy, all the juicy gossip, spill it, isn't he sooo hunky?" I rose my voice an octave and pretended to fan myself. She gave the faintest giggle. "Thanks chrissy," she rose to kiss my cheek, "I love you." I put my arm around her and we walked out. This girl was like my little sister, and when I was younger I vowed I was going to make whoever hurt her regret it, but I don't know if I can keep that promise.
