Thank you for the reviews. Lindsey is Rose and Dimitri's daughter. So R&R!

APOV

We had stopped in front of the pool; we had been making out when a Guardian cleared his throat. We both turned to look and see who it was. I didn't recognize him but Viktoria did. She had frozen and there was a weird look on her face.

"Babe, what' wrong," I whispered.

She didn't answer me for a moment and when she did she was barely audible," Nothing."

I knew something was wrong but I left it at that until we were alone. "Come on," I said pulling her towards the pool. No one was in the pool," what are you guys waiting on?"

"This," Viktoria said. She seemed to have snapped out of her trance. She then pushed Dimitri into the pool. He landed with a loud splash. Everyone laughed. Dimitri climbed out of the water and said," Come here little sister, let me give you a hug." Viktoria squealed, and ran from Dimitri they were both fast. And Viktoria being the smart person she was jumped into the pool. Dimitri right on her heels.

When they came up for water they started laughing, Viktoria kept trying to push Dimitri underwater, but he could stand flat on his feet and still be about a foot out of the water. Meanwhile Viktoria had to keep kicking to stay afloat.

Everything was calm, well that is until Rose jumped in. Viktoria climbed out of the pool, and stripped down to her bathing suit, throwing her wet clothes onto a rack. She grabbed my hand and pulled me to the pool. I quickly threw my clothes off and jumped into the water with her. She immediately tried to push me underwater, not being successful.

She then got an evil look in her eyes. With a smile she reached forward and wrapped her arms around my neck. She leaned in closer, her lips parted. I could scarily breathe. When her lips where an inch from mine she used the opportunity and pushed me underwater. When I finally came up I saw Viktoria giggling on the deck that was hanging over the pool. She had her hands to her face.

I swam over to her. Folding my arms across the edge of the deck I said," So you think that was funny?"

She couldn't talk so she just laughed.

We did that for the rest of the day laughing and playing around.

****7months later****

Viktoria's POV

"Viktoria! I need you right now," Rose yelled from the bedroom. I was watching Rose while Dimitri was at work. The woman was 9 months pregnant and very annoying I didn't know how Dimitri dealt with her.

I got up from my perch on the counter and ran into the bedroom. Rose was trying to sit up, failing and falling back down. Sweat covered her face and her hair was sticking to her forehead.

I ran over to her, putting one arm behind her back and the other around her waist. I heaved her up. And slowly but surely we walked to the hospital. I called Dimitri telling him Rose was expecting. He started to panic and I could hear the sound of feet hitting the ground as he made his way to the clinic. Once we had hung up I called Adrian telling him to come to the clinic with Rose's baby bag. He said he would be here soon.

When I made it to Rose's room the doctor was moving around getting Rose ready to deliver. It happened so quickly no one knew what was happening. Rose screamed and then the doctor was bustling around. I vaguely heard the doctor tell someone to get me out of here, but Rose yelled," No, Viktoria stays."

I then heard the doctor say push, and Rose must have been in so much pain. She kept screaming at Dimitri, telling him this is what he did to her. And how she couldn't wait for his baby to get out of her. It always happened with something went wrong with Rose and Dimitri Rose would blame the baby for her hormones.

It was hilarious. I wasn't paying attention I could feel Rose squeezing my hand and screaming, and then I heard the sound of a baby's cries fill the room. I smiled, I looked at Rose, the little baby boy had been placed in her arms. Rose and Dimitri both had wide smiles across their faces, they looked at the baby with looks of awe and love.

Deciding that I was intruding I quickly and quietly left the room. I through the window into their room. Oh, how much I wish I could have a baby. I shoot my head it would never happen to me. Let alone with Adrian. I was a guardian I had to think about my job. I tried hard but images of a little girl or boy with Adrian's green eyes and my dark wavy hair kept filling my mind. That's when I realized I needed to talk to Adrian about having a baby. We were soon to be married; I just hoped he didn't think the idea was ridiculous.

At a hurried pace I made my way to the waiting room. Adrian was there with Lissa and Christian. They were all pacing; they looked up when I walked in. I smiled," A little boy. Eight pounds three ounce, twenty-two inches long."

They all smiled Adrian walked over to me, I spread my arms out and let him wrap his arms around me. "Thank God their alright," he said kissing me on the forehead.

"I half to talk to you later," I whispered.

I released him, he was about to head to Rose along with Lissa and Christian when Lissa screamed.

We looked over to her to see water dripping from her legs, and onto the floor. "Looks like labor number two," Adrian said.

My eyes were wide I had forgotten about Lissa for a moment. Lissa made a grab for my hand, I let her have it. A nurse came over with a wheel chair, Lissa sat in it, and they wheeled her away. The bad thing? She still had a firm grip on my hand.

I was again dragged into the labor room. Lissa was prepped, and she insisted I stay in the room with her. Soon enough her screams filled the room. She gripped my hand even tighter; I never thought she had it in her.

It took a long three hours but soon enough Lissa's baby girl was born. Seven pounds, eight ounces, and twenty inches long. What a night. That's all I remember. The next thing I know? I'm falling onto the floor, being enveloped into darkness.

BEEP BEEP BEEP

The sound of beeping woke me up. I couldn't remember what had happened. I saw Adrian's emerald green eyes for a moment. "I want a baby," I said in a voice barely audible. I'm not sure if he heard me.

I passed out again.

The next time I woke up I was in a comfy bed. I opened my eyes wider and realized I was in the hospitals long term care center. Someone was sleeping by my bedside, their head resting on my arm. It was a man. Mid-twenties? He had thick brown hair and pale skin. A Moroi. Why was a Moroi sleeping by my bedside?

My thoughts immediately went to how I had gotten here. I tried to speak but nothing came out. I thought again. My mind instantly went to a Storigi attack. I had been knocked out and then I had ended up here. That didn't explain the Moroi though? Why would a Moroi be here? It wasn't like I had any relationship with him. I was a Dhampir I was never going to get married.

I tried to move the Moroi, but it ended up waking him. He woke with a start looking up. He wiped the sleep from his eyes. "Viktoria," he said. His voice held some sort of excitement. He had the most beautiful eyes. Bright emerald green eyes.

I tried to get away from him. I knew who this was. This was Adrian Ivashkov. One of the biggest man whores ever.

"What are you doing here," I demanded.

"What?"

"I asked you 'what are you going her' how you got here."

"Viktoria, what are you talking about," he asked.

"I want to know how you know who I am and how I got here," I said.

"You have been here for almost a year. The doctors said you were taking anti-depressant pills and you took an over dosage. They did surgery but you never woke up. I'm Adrian Ivashkov, I know you because were engaged," he said.

My eyes widened in shock. "I can't be engaged to you." That's when I started rambling in Russian.

Adrian tried to calm me down and when I did I started to cry he tried to console me by wrapping his around me and pulling me close, but I pushed him off and cried," Dimika!"

"You want Dimitri," he asked. I couldn't speak so I nodded my head. He got up from the bed, pulled out his phone and talked to someone on the other end.

When he hung up he said," he'll be here in a moment." I just nodded. I wrapped my arms around my legs pulling them up. I started to rock back and forth. Soon enough Dimitri walked through the door. He was wearing his guardian attire. His eyes were bloodshot and he looked like he had just run here from somewhere far, far away.

"Viktoria," he asked. I reached forward as if to wrap her arms around Dimitri.

"Dimitri, what's going on," I asked.

"Vikki, you're at the Moroi Royal Court in Pennsylvania. "

"Tell me, what happened?"

He went into a story telling how I ended up here and everything. He stayed for hours, consoling me and just talking to me telling me stories. I remembered my childhood, but the past four years were gone from my memory.

When Dimitri left Adrian came forward from the corner of the room where he had been while Dimitri was here.

"Viktoria," he said calmly. As if he talked fast or loudly he would scare me away.

I stared at him. I had been in love with him. We had been engaged. "Adrian…I don't know what to say," I mumbled.

"Viktoria, I half to ask you something," he looked up at me. I gave him a small nod as if to say he could continue. "When you were first came out after the surgery you woke up. Just for a moment. You said something. What did you say?"

I thought back, I tried I really did but I couldn't remember. The last thing I remember was getting on a plane heading somewhere. I looked up at Adrian. My eyes I'm sure pretty much conveyed what I was about to say but I said it anyway. "I'm sorry Adrian, I truly am. But I don't remember anything. I truly am sorry. And….I knows this may be bad for you. But I'm not the person who loved you. I'm sorry, but I'm just not her. But Adrian you seem like a good man, I'm sure the right girl is waiting for you somewhere. I'm just not her."

He didn't reply. He looked down and I swear I saw a tear leak from his eyes. My questions as to whether he did or not was answered when he looked up and I saw tear drops fall from his eyes.

"I completely understand," he said but I could tell he was lying. "I'm not him. But if you'd like to, I think that you need to come gather your stuff from our-my apartment."

I knew it hurt him to say that the apartment was his and not ours, but it was for the best.

"Thank you Adrian," I said to him. "Uh, could you ask the doctor when I can leave?"

"You can leave anytime. As long as your emergency helper is with you. And I can see your fine, and after all I am an Ivashkov."

"Thank you," I said again.

"It's not a big deal," it was getting uncomfortable in here. And I could tell because Adrian took off the sweat shirt he was wearing. When he pulled the sweat shirt over his head his shirt rose and showed off a part of his muscled chest. That's not all that showed. There was a ring, on a silver chain around his neck. It was beautiful. It was an engagement ring. I looked down at my finger and there was no ring but there were tell tale marks of there being a ring there.

"Tell me about it," I demanded.

"About what," he asked.

"How you purposed," I explained.

"Oh," he said. Thinking he was only going to get this chance. He immeditaly rushed into the story of how he did it. It was nice to know the parts of my life that Dimitri had not been able to tell me. He went into other stories telling me about how we had met, and how we had fallen in love. How we had our first fight. and when he took me to St. Petersburg for my birthday. I knew it was impossible for us to get back together, but it was nice having him around.
