"So you are like together now?" Adrian asked me and his father. His face was blank, not giving away any emotion, much like how his father sometimes does. Was he upset? Was he happy? Was he annoyed?
"Erm, yes we are, is that ok with you?" I asked him. Adrian nodded his head and a huge smile lit up his face.
"So are you, erm, does that mean you are my mummy now?" Adrian asked. I could feel Dimitri freeze up next to me, his whole body becoming stiff and unmoving.
"Well no Adrian I'm not your mummy, I'm still going to be your nanny but it means that daddy and I will be boyfriend and girlfriend"
"Oh. Do you not want to be my mummy then?" Adrian's sweet voice asked.
"No sweetie it isn't that I don't want to be your mummy, it's just hard to explain. You see your daddy and I have only just gotten into a relationship and we don't want to rush anything. I just feel that if I became your mummy it would be too soon, it's not that I wouldn't like to be your mummy- it's just that it's a bit sudden, but I'm still going to be your nanny".
"So you would still live here right?" Adrian asked me as he came to sit on the sofa next to me and Dimitri.
"Of course. Everything will be the same buddy, except rose and I might occasionally kiss"
"Ewww that means you will get girl cooties"
"Girl cooties?" I gasp, mocking anger and shock. Adrian giggled and nodded his head.
"Well mister I will have to show you girl cooties" I said as I lunged for him, pinning him to the floor and tickling his sides and kissing him all over.
"Please, Rosie, stop, daddy, help!" Adrian gasped out as I continued to tickle him.
Suddenly I was being pushed over onto my back and Dimitri was tickling my sides, once Adrian recovered he joined in too, both tickling me and making me giggle like a mad woman.
"Oh god, seriously stop. Dimitri, Adrian! Please no I can't, seriously. Boys stop" I gasped between breaths as their tickles died down. When they got up I just continued to lie on the floor trying to regain my breath.

"Hey Ivan" I said as I set the table for lunch. Dimitri had gone to a meeting at work but was coming home in a few minutes and I had invited Ivan over for lunch because Adrian was begging me to.
"Hello sweet Rose, Dimitri told me about your new relationship status and I must admit, I thought it was about bloody time! I bought over some wine to celebrate" Ivan said as he kissed me on the cheek and handed me the bottle of white wine.
I placed the bottle in the fridge and then carried on placing four sets of knives and forks on the table.
"So are you looking forward to tonight?" Ivan asked me, giving me a cheeky wink. Was he really asking me if I was looking forward to spending the night with Dimitri?
"Excuse me?"
"You know, the charity ball that Dimitri hosts every year for our company, I bet you have picked out a lovely dress" Ivan said as he helped me bring out some plates and glasses.
"He hasn't mentioned it to me actually" I stated. Why wouldn't he mention it to me? Did he not want me to go? Was he ashamed of me?
"Oh, it must have just slipped his mind" Ivan said, his eyebrows fused together in confusion. A slight bang of the door closing brought Ivan out of his confused state, as Dimitri walked in the door jokingly calling out 'Honey I'm home!'
"We are in the kitchen" I called back to him a minute before he wandered into the room, gave me a kiss on the cheek and one of those 'man hugs' to Ivan.
"How was your meeting?" I asked, honestly interested but hoping it might jog Dimitri's memory into inviting me to tonight's charity ball event.
"Yeah it was good; we were just going over the plans for tonight. Oh speaking of tonight…" and here came my invitation.
"Adrian is sleeping over my mums so you will have the house to yourself, you don't need to cook me or Adrian any dinner so help yourself to whatever you want to eat tonight, also there is a bottle of wine in the fridge that you could drink if you want to". Oh. So instead of a nice night out with my boyfriend, he expected me to spend a lonely night in with a bottle of wine. Classy.
"Okay?" I said, giving him a tight lipped smile.
"Is everything ok Rose?" Dimitri asked me, his eyebrows coming together in a frown of confusion. Seriously? I pegged Dimitri for a smart man, but did he seriously not see the problem? Why didn't he want me to come? Ivan assumed he would want me to come, so that only left the option of him being embarrassed of me coming. Perhaps he didn't want people to know he was dating 'the help'.
But instead of voicing these opinions I just nodded my head and turned back to getting lunch ready.
"Dimitri, why don't you invite Rose to the charity event tonight?" Ivan hinted, giving Dimitri a subtle clue as to my problem. Dimitri did not catch on.
"Oh she doesn't want to go to that, do you Rose?" Dimitri asked his beautiful smile landing on me. Should I tell him the truth or will my answer piss him off?
"Well I don't have anything to wear to it; I wouldn't want to look inadequate next to the other females in the room. They would be wearing an elaborate gown and all I would have to wear would be jeans and a t-shirt" I said, giving a fake laugh at the end to highlight how 'ok' I was about the situation. Except I was clearly not ok. Well it was clear to Ivan, not so much to Dimitri.
"You could borrow a dress off of Dimitri's sister, Victoria and Sonya are about the same height and size as you Rose, Dimitri why don't you give them a call and see what they can rustle up in the short amount of time given to them?"
"Ivan, Rose doesn't want to go, she would be bored and it's not like I could keep her company, I do have to go mingle with everyone". Would I be in the way at this charity event?
"Well take her with you so that everyone can meet your new girlfriend."
"What would the point in that be? They don't care who I date and like I said before Rose doesn't want to go!" well perhaps I would like to meet the people he worked with!
"Well maybe she does but she is just saying she doesn't because she feels rude because you, her boyfriend, haven't invited her to go" Ivan said, not backing down.
"Rose do you want to go?" Dimitri suddenly turned to me questioningly and I felt very awkward.
"I told you it is fine, Ivan drop it please." I didn't want an argument to break out in the middle of the kitchen; I most defiantly didn't want Adrian who was upstairs playing to overhear any of the disagreement.
"No Rose I know you want to go" Ivan said, not letting up on his side of the argument.
"Ivan, I said drop it. Clearly Dimitri doesn't want me to go."
"So, Rose you do want to go?" Dimitri said his face full of confusion.
"It doesn't matter Dimitri" I replied, trying to dismiss the confrontation that was no doubt about to occur.
"Yes it does, do you want to go Rose?" Dimitri said, his voice sounding somewhat harsh. What was his problem?
"It doesn't matter; clearly you don't want me there".
"Why would you think that?" Dimitri's face did honestly hold an expression of utter confusion.
"Because otherwise you would have invited me beforehand", I thought it was obvious!
"Well I'm inviting you now. Do you want to go or not?" Dimitri said bluntly
"You don't have to be so blunt with me!"
"Do you want to go or not?" he repeated again.
"If you're going to be a moody dick all night, then no I don't want to go" I replied, once again turning back to preparing lunch.
"That's it. I'm calling my sister, I will tell her to pick a dress out for you."
"No Dimitri, I'm not going, its fine." I said turning around to face him again
"Clearly it isn't fine. Seriously why can't you just admit that you want to go?" Dimitri said rolling his eyes at me.
"Why didn't you invite me in the first place?"
"I just assumed…"
"Exactly you assumed, lesson number 1 Dimitri, if we are going to be in a relationship stop assuming things about me."
…
Adrian had left to go to Olena's house and Dimitri's sister Victoria had brought me over a dress and a pair of shoes to wear tonight. The dress was beautiful. The material was thick black velvet and was tight and floor length with long sleeves and a high neck, but the back was well, non-existent. The back of the dress was sweeping, showing off my tanned skin all the way down to a centimetre above where my bum started. I looked classy and hot.
I had high heeled, black suede court shoes on and a red clutch bag that matched my red lipstick. My hair had been curled and swept to one side, to show off my back, and all in all I looked sexy.
However I didn't feel it.
What I felt was in fact a huge swarm of butterfly's. I was nervous but I wasn't quite sure what it was about. Whether it was meeting Dimitri's colleges, spending the whole evening being known as 'Dimitri's girlfriend' or whether it was simpler than that, almost as though I was nervous as to how to act around Dimitri tonight.
After spraying some perfume and touching up my lipstick, I left my room and went to go and meet Dimitri who was down stairs waiting for me.
As I took a step at a time down the stairs, careful not to fall over, I could see that Dimitri was on the phone and had not noticed me yet.
However as I neared the bottom of the stairs it was as though Dimitri could feel my presence, as he looked up from his phone, his eyes racking up from the bottom of my dress, painfully slowly up my body until landing on my face-our eyes finally meeting.
"I'm going to have to call you back" was all Dimitri murmured before he hung up the phone and chucked it down on the sofa behind him.
Strolling across the room, our eyes never loosing contact, until he met me at the bottom of the stairs. His eyes held so much intensity and I felt myself suck in a small gulp of air before I let out a deep breath.
"Hi" I whispered, finally breaking our eye contact and looking down over his body. He wore a black suit, fit with a skinny red tie-which happened to match my clutch bag and lipstick. He looked good. Incredibly good.
"You look…nice" I said, remembering how Dimitri complimented me on the first night we hooked up.
"I scrub up well" Dimitri said, not taking his eyes off of me. his eyes full of so much passion and intensity. That look alone had me feeling very wet down below…if you know what I mean.
"Are you going to make me wait any longer for a kiss Comrade?" I whispered. Dimitri's eyes dropped from my eyes to my lips and the burning in his eyes only increase.
"Will you admit that you wanted to come tonight?" And we were back to this again.
"Will you tell me why you didn't invite me in the first place?" I shot back.
"Would it matter?"
"It does to me". I wanted to know why my boyfriend didn't want me meeting his colleges, was he hiding something from me?
"I guess I didn't invite you because I was afraid you wouldn't like the man I am at work. This may be a charity event but it is still work. I still will be in work mode and my past relationships never worked out because of it. I work a lot of the time and I was worried you would get annoyed at the fact that I wouldn't be spending my whole time with you"
"I wanted to come tonight."
"Wanted? As in past tense?" Dimitri questioned, his face forming a frown of confusion and worry.
"No jackass. I want to come tonight. But if you keep me waiting any longer for a kiss I might just change my mind"
"Well I mustn't keep my lady waiting any longer than necessary" Dimitri said before he closed the gap between us. Roughly grabbing me and pulling me flush against him, wrapping his arms around me and noticing that my back was bare.
"Oh god, how am I going to cope tonight with you dressed like this? You look exceptionally beautiful tonight. So darn sexy and..." his sentence trailed off as I pulled his lips to mine in a passionate kiss.
The kiss was hungry and full of need and desire.
His lips moved against mine as my hands gripped his hair in a tight fist, bringing him closer.
When the kissed died down and we pulled back, I wiped away on of my lipstick which had gotten onto Dimitri's lips and gave him a smile.
"My lady?" Dimitri said smiling back at me, offering me his arm which I gladly took.
AN:/ So you will be please to know that I have finished school and will be able to update more frequently now. This chapter was somewhat of a filler and that is why not much really happened. The next chapter I am hoping you will like as I plan to have many hot and steamy moments between Dimitri and Rose. I'm afraid Adrian wasn't in this chapter that much and he won't be in the next chapter either but he will make a re appearance soon. The next chapter will be uploaded sometime next week or the week after depending on how busy I am (hopefully it will be up by the end of next week).
I also would like to know your opinions on the making of Blood sisters, I am very happy with the choices of casting etc (well except for the person to play kirova as I think she looks to young and pretty and I always expected kirova to be old and harsh looking).
Many people have controversial opinions on the creation of the film so far but I for one love Zoey and Danila as Rose and Dimitri but I would love to know everyone's opinions on the matter so either send me a PM or write it in a review as I will be interested to know what my fellow fans of VA think.
