Chapter 12
We finally got back and I was exhausted. But I couldn't get any rest. We were ambushed by everyone in the court. Dimitri was at my side within seconds of me getting out of the car.
"Rose." That's all he had to say. I thought he was going to yell at me but he had too much love and compassion in his eyes. I wanted to grab him and bring him into my arms. Everyone was coming now; I had to shake off everything on my mind. Before I could say anything to everyone Dimitri spoke up.
"Lissa and Rose are very tired. They'll talk later." Dimitri said and put his arm around my waist pulling me to my room. When we got into the hall, Dimitri looked at Lissa.
"Will you be okay walking to your room by yourself?" he asked. I stepped in front of Dimitri.
"Its fine, I'll walk her there." I was still in my guardian mode and needed to make sure she was safe. Dimitri wanted to tell me no, but he knew that I needed to know she was safe. He was about ready to speak when Lissa spoke.
""I'll be fine, I just have to walk to my room and I think I'll stop by Christians room." She laughed. "I'll be okay Rose." She came over and gave me hug and went on her way. I looked up at Dimitri, he was trying show no emotion on his face but something slipped. I don't know what it was but it made me want to put my arms around him and just let him know I'm here.
"Let's go to your room." He whispered. We didn't talk on the way to my room but we walked petty close the whole way. We got to my room and I swung the door open.
"Go in." I nodded trying to point the way. He went a few steps in and turned around. I shut the door and looked at him. "What do you need, Dimitri?" I'm exhausted and I need sleep. I didn't want to sound mean but I felt like I was going to fall asleep right there. He stepped closer, we were almost touching.
"Are you alright?"
"Yeah, I'm fine." I turned my head. I was about ready to melt under him. I didn't feel as tired anymore with him this close. His breathe was sweet and very intoxicating.
"What took you so long to get home?" by the look on his face I think he knew there were then just those strogoi at the hotel.
"There were strogoi." I went to the bed and sat down. I patted the spot next to me. Once he sat down I told him all that happened. He was shocked.
"Rose, you shouldn't have left me. We could've found Lissa together and just left. Everyone would have been safe and I wouldn't have almost had a heart attack." He was serious but I broke out in laughter.
"Dimitri, I know I shouldn't have left but I just needed to. I felt like it was my responsibility. I hurt her and I was the cause of her leaving. I did it because I'm her best friend and I shouldn't have even done what I did to her..." I looked up and saw that he understood. "And you. I'm sorry." I laid down on the bed and shut my eyes.
"Oh Roza," Dimitri sighed. I looked up and all I saw was the love in his eyes. I didn't know what I was doing until it happened. I was sitting up and he was in my arms. This feeling was amazing. Dimitri kept murmuring "oh Roza." and going through my hair with his fingers, I wanted just to melt. He grabbed my face in his hands.
"Rose, I was so worried and scared when you called me early to today. I didn't know what to think but I knew that I couldn't lose you. I wanted to go to you but I didn't know where to go. And then what just happened with those retched strogoi and their leader." he paused. He was so disgusted. "Rose, I just don't know what I'd do without you." He pulled me into his arms and squeezed. I almost yelled the pain in the arm where that damn strogoi pulled me hurt so badly. Dmitri pulled back.
"Are you alright?"
"Yeah, I think so. That main strogoi pulled my arm. It's just a little sore." I smiled but he scolded me. I lifted up the arm of my shirt.
"It's hard to see." I was going to pull my sleeve up higher but I had a better idea. I slipped my shirt off all the way because I had a bra on and smiled. His breathe caught and he was shocked but under all that I could tell he liked what he saw.
"Is this better?" he nodded.
"Oh, yeah, a lot better." he put his hand on my arm and runner slowly. I closed my eyes. He put his hand right on my shoulder.
"Rose, your whole shoulder is all bruised." I looked down and he was right. It was yellowish green but was going to be worse tomorrow. I closed my eyes.
"It doesn't hurt that bad, okay. I'm fine." I gave him my best Rose smile to make him calm down and it worked. It looked like he completely forgot about my arm. He moved his hand up to my face.
"Roza, I love you." he whispered staring straight into my eyes. This time my breathe caught. Dimitri smirked and pulled my face to his. We were about an inch apart and I got a hold of myself. I smiled back.
"I love you too, Dimitri." he brought his lips the rest of the way. This kiss started off slow and passionate but got faster and harder. Our lips moved together perfectly. We laid down on the bed, me on the bottom. He was kissing me so passionately. He stopped for a second and looked down at me. I was ready. I've never had sex before but I was ready now. He was looking at me, waiting to see if I was truly ready and I was. He knew it, he smiled and I pulled his head back down to mine. He kissed me roughly and I like it. I slipped my hands up his shirt. I traced over every muscle, and he pulled the shirt off. He flipped me over, now I was on top. He stopped kissing my lips and moved to my neck. He helped me wiggle out of my sweat pants and through them on the ground. I've never done this before but it was coming naturally. He started pulling of his sweatpants then flipped us over again. Before I know it, his pants are on the floor. I smiled and brought his lips to mine.
All our clothes gathered into a pile on the floor. I was completely naked around him and so was he. This was my first time and I was going to do it with the only man I loved. I didn't know how long we went but it felt like eternity to me and I loved it! I put all my energy into him and it felt like we could just keep going. We finally stopped and I could hardly keep my eyes open.
"Roza, you can go to sleep now." I looked at him. I didn't want him to leave me, ever.
"Don't leave." I said, I put my arms around him and pulled him close. "I love you." I whispered and brought my lips to his.
"I won't leave you Rose. I never, ever want to leave you."
"Thank you." I put my head down and blacked out.
