~Chapter 14~ Surprises!

APOV

I awoke the following morning in the feeling better than I have in a long time. To my right, lay my beautiful Rose. I can hear the flutter of her heart and steady breaths, I can't help but smile. Life is just unexpected sometimes. If someone would have told me, a year ago, that I would be madly in love and engaged right now, I would of hit them in the face... hard. Now I couldn't be happier.

Life is amazing how just by one simple or hard choice, your whole life can change. I don't know what I would be doing right now if I would of chosen not to follow Lissa and Rose to St. Vlad's. But I am so proud of myself that I did. It was the best decision that I have made yet. I open my eyes to the see the my room filled with the soft moonlight.

I look over and gaze lovingly at my beautiful fiance. She looks breath taking in the moonlight. Lying on her stomach, the shimmering black silk sheet, covering her lower back. Her beautiful rich dark chocolate hair cascading down her back in waves of curls. She looks so breath taking. I can't believe she said yes, to be my wife.

Lying on my side, I slowly move my hand, fondly sliding my soft fingers, from the top of her shoulder blade to her lower back. She moans in delight and pleasure. I smile wider, hearing her moan. She gradually lifts her head up, trying to open her eyes to look at me. I can't help but laugh at her. "What's so funny?" She asks as her eyes finally start to flutter open. I can tell she knows what it is because she has playful smile on her lips. I just shake my head still laughing quietly.

I lean into her and kiss her nose. She giggles and tucks her head into the pillows. Coping her I ask "What's so funny?" She just laughs harder and I join her, followed by tickling the rest of sleep out of her head and eyes. She screams and laughs, yelling at me, to stop. I finally oblige and flips her over to face me, my arms resting on either side of her face. "Good morning Adrian." She whispers. I smile and say "Good morning Rose." just as quiet. I lean in to kiss those beautiful lips of hers and she quickly deepens the kiss into a passionate one.

She slowly rolls us over, so she's on top. She leans back down to my lips, picking up where we left off last night. I can't help but softly grind my hips against hers. She moans in pleasure as she joins me. As doing so I slowly slip down the covers, off my lower half. Rose seems to notice as she smiles against my lips.

As I covers slip past my member, I slowly slide inside Rose. She lets out a loud moan, a whisper of my name on her lips. She takes it from there, guiding out hips to a perfect rhythm.

After I feel her come to her climax, I moan as I feel the pressure release inside her. I flip us over so that I can take control and make this more pleasurable for her. I gently nibble onto her lip until she lets me in. I take her lips over as I am with her body. I feel her shiver in absolute pleasure. Once I come to my climax I lay to her right on my back.

"Wow!" She breaths. I smile and turn to look at her. "You could say that again!" She smirks and whispers again, I think more to herself than to me, "Wow!" She turns over to cuddle into my side. "i love you.." she smirks and kisses right about my nipple. "I love you too Adrian." Slowly I feel my eyelids start to close. I'm already tired after making love with Rose. She seems to be tired to as I hear her heart gently start to slow into a sleepy steady pattern. I fall asleep with my fiance securely in the safety my arms.

I stretch out like a lazy cat, accidentally hitting Adrian in the chest. I smile as I hear him groan. "Good Afternoon to you too Rose!" He murmurs. I smile wider, letting out a little laugh. "Sorry babe!" I open my eyes slowly, drinking in Adrian's sexy body. He looks like he doesn't want to wake up just yet. As if I read his mind, he turns over on his other side, cuddling further into the covers and pillows. I stretch again but this time, I make sure not hit Adrian. I look down at his sleeping form as I softly get out of bed and smile at my lovely fiance. "I love you sleepy head." I murmur, knowing he is too out of it to actually hear me.

I walk into the bathroom, loving how inviting the shower is looking. I turn on the water to just about burning hot. I need something to ease my muscles, thoughts and tension. I stand facing the water as the droplets fall over my face and chest. After a couple of minutes I turn around and let the droplets massage my back and shoulders. This shower feels amazing. After I wash my hair and body I quickly shave and exfoliate my skin. Each layer of dead skin that I ease away, I feel like a tiny weight has been lightly lifted my body.

After my shower I walk out and see my bag, in the corner of the bathroom, under the sink. I grab it and pull out my outfit for today. I chose a simple off white quarter sleeve loose shirt, denim shorts, turquoise jewelry and a butterfly set of sandals. I love this outfit especially when I have a lot of work to do. Like talk to Dimitri, pack up all of my belongings, talk to Lissa about my guarding her, and before anything, grab some saltines, my stomach hasn't been liking me at all lately. I toss my hair up into a messy ponytail and slip the stray strands behind my ears. (picture on profile)

I rub my stomach tenderly as I sneak out of Adrian's room, leaving him a note to text or call once he is finally awake. I head to the cafeteria, hoping that they have just what I need to help my stomach. On my way I notice Dimitri sitting on a bench reading one of his western novels. I smile internally as I pass him, hoping he doesn't notice me. "Rose?" Dammit... just my luck. "Hmm.." I say as I act like a didn't see him sitting there. "Can we talk now?" I look to the cafeteria and back to him. "We can in a little bit, I need to get something first?" He nods and stands to follow me. I continue walking towards the cafeteria. He follows by my left side.

Once I grab an orange, some crackers, and a ginger ale, I pick the farthest table away from everyone. Once we are settled sitting down, I pop the top of the ginger ale and chug a good fourth of it before relaxing. I sigh with relief that the nausea and pain slowly start to go away. I look up to see a concerned looking Dimitri. "What?" I ask. He just looks further into my eyes to see if he can answer his own question. "What's wrong?" He finally asks, when he comes up with nothing. "Nothing... Don't worry about it." I quickly say. He looks at me for a moment, concern still deep in his eyes. "So there is an it at least. Don't you trust me enough to tell me?" He asks softly. "Not right now Dimitri. I can't handle all of this stress." He nods like he understands what I'm saying.

"Look... Dimitri, Let me get my little speech out of the way, then you can ask the questions, okay?" He nods and I take a few deep breaths and bites of my crackers. "Okay..." I look up and meet his eyes.

"Dimitri I know that I really freaked you out about the dream and then everything else that followed. I know that you love me and I love you too. I just don't love you the same ways that you love me. I thought I did but I don't. I want you to … No... I need you to understand that I will always have a place for you in my heart and I will always want to be in your life, in one way or another. I know that this is going to be hard for you and I will give you anything you need, time, space, anything. I just can't loose you. Your too important. I know what it is like to have to live without you and I don't want that to happen." I say with sadness dripping off every word, tears threaten to break free but I take a deep breath and try to relax.

I look down and start to eat my orange, by the time I'm finished Dimitri finally speaks up. "Rose... I-I don't really know what to say. I love you so much that it hurts and I don't know if I can just sit back and watch you marry Adrian and have his children... I don't know if I am strong enough to do that to myself." I nod in agreement, because I had a feeling he would say something like this to me.

I finish drinking down my ginger ale and I look back up into his eyes and smile sadly. "I don't know what your going to have to do but I know that what ever it will be.. will be what is best for you. I know that you are going to need time alone, I understand that completely. If I can help you at all let me know. A piece of advice... I would suggest visiting all of your family in Russia. Visit Sonya, Paul, Viktoria, Olena, Yeva, Karolina, they miss you dearly and I know that Viktoria could use some of your brotherly guidance. Plus I know you have a new niece and one on the way to visit. I would spend some.. if not all.. of your time with them."

Dimitri looks at me shocked. "H-How did you know all of there names and about my nieces? I never knew that I have nieces. Just my nephew Paul. Rose... How did yo-" I cut him off with my finger tips against his lips. "Shh.. That doesn't matter... Just go to them Dimitri... They need you and miss you dearly." He looks at me for a few moments trying to ease an answer out of me when there is no point to even try to explain.

Before we are able to discuss anything more... my stomach hitches and I put my hand against my mouth. Dimitri seems to notice the change and looks and me concerned again. "Roza.. What's wrong?" Before I can say anything, I bolt for the bathroom, trying to hold back the bile that is threatening to escape behind my fingers. I don't make it there though. I make it to the trash can, just outside the cafeteria. (That god it was in the back of the building or else everyone would of seen... eww.)

Dimitri was the only one that witnessed it, gently rubbing my shoulders as I vomited into the trash can. I was in tears by the time it stopped repeating. Groaning in pain... I look over to see Dimitri about to pick me up bridal style, into his arms. "N-No Dim-" He cut my muttering off. "Rose..Stop it! I'm taking you to see Dr. Olendzki! Don't fight me on this!" I just nod and rest my head against his shoulder.

Once we arrived at the clinic, Dimitri rushes around trying to get someone, to try to figure out what's wrong with me. Dr. Olendzki comes into the waiting room, and Dimitri is at her side, following her into a room, that is pretty much my personal hospital room. He sets me softly onto the bed. He relays everything that he knows about what happened, but all I really hear is hums, as I try to relax my stomach and being in Dimitri's arms didn't help that. I feel like I'm going to vomit again. I put my fingers to my mouth and Dimitri instantly grabs the trash can and rubs my back as I vomit 2 or 3 more times.

Dr. Olendzki looks at me strangely for a moment and then asks Dimitri to step out, so that I can change into the hospital gown and get a full check up. He nods and stands outside the door, pacing. I quickly change as Dr. O cleans her utensils and stethoscope. Once I am completely descent Dr. O turns around and she tells me to lay on my back and to just relax. I do so, trying to keep my stomach relaxed, hoping I don't vomit again.

After she looks me over she asks me questions. "How are you feeling on a scale of one to ten?" "How does your back feel?" "How long has this nausea been going on?" I answer all of them and more. When she asks me the last question that she has, I am shocked into silence, not being able to answer. Truthfully I don't remember when my last period was. I tell her and she looks at me for a moment. "Rose.. I think you may be pregnant." I shake my head, tears in my eyes. "What?" I didn't want to believe it.

"Here.. Let's check, with this at home pregnancy test, okay? There is the bathroom, go in there and then bring the test back out once your finished." I nod not really listening. I walk into the bathroom and look at myself in the mirror. Adrian and I haven't been that careful when it comes to sex. I should of taken better care, protecting myself. What if Adrian leaves me? Can he handle getting married and having a little baby around?

I sit on the toilet and take the test, still lost in my own thoughts. Once I finish I put the cap on the test and wash my hands. I hand the test to Dr. O and she sets it on the counter. We wait for the results for what feels like an hour. Once I see Dr. O look at the test, she hands it to me. Electronically in black it says Pregnant!

I look up at Dr. O and she looks sadly at me. "I'm sorry Rose! But your pregnant. Do you know who the father is?" I nod and uncharacteristically pulls me into a tight hug. "I know that you can work through this. Do you want to take the test so that you can show the father?" She asks me. I nod and she puts a bag together of pills and books that will help me.

She also explains that I need to eat more often and I need to take it easy. I graduate in less than one week so she says she will keep it quiet for me, since I'm almost out of the academy. I thank her and grab the big bag and take it with me. She also excuses me from class for the next two days.

She lead the ways out of the room, heading towards a cabinet to hand me a box on candies. I look at her funny but she just smiles and points to the little sticker. It reads: Pregnancy Candies and below that it says Helps with morning sickness. I thank her again and start to walk over to my dorm, Dimitri following closely behind me.

After we enter my room, Dimitri speaks up. "So ..?" I smile sadly and shrug. "It was just a little tummy issues. She gave me some stuff to help. I'm out for the next two days." He looks at me, trying to see if I'm telling the truth. He seems to think I am but not all of it. "Well you can always call, text, or talk to me about anything. You know that right?" I nod. "Okay.. I'll let you rest. Just let me know if you need me and I'll be here. Okay?" I nod again and whisper a goodbye. I lean back against my pillows enjoying the softness and immediately fell asleep.

Dreaming... I seem to be subconsciously trying to see what my baby will look like. I keep getting flashes of a baby in my arms with my beautiful silk chocolate brown hair or sometimes more like Adrian's lighter brown. Sometimes with Adrian's amazing green eyes or my deep brown eyes but sometimes hazel eyes. It's breathtaking to dream about my little baby boy or girl. I don't think it's really hit me that I'm pregnant, until I dreamed about it.

It make me see that I can be a mother, whether Adrian wants to be a father or not. I am a very strong woman, I can do this either alone or with Adrian.

I am woken up from my slumber by a banging on the door. I open my eyes, groaning from the pounding, that gives me an instant migraine. "What?" I yell as loud as I can without hurting my head more. "It's me! Let me in Rose!" Adrian's voice rings out, over the pounding on the door and in my head. I get up as fast as I can and open the door slightly. It is Adrian... He's alone. He pushes his way through the door and shuts the door behind him.

I slowly walk over to my bed, crawling back under the covers. As I snuggle back into my pillow I catch a glimpse of Adrian. He looks concerned and worried. I drink him in, worried about the outcome after I tell him the news. From his devilish hair, emerald green eyes, all the way to his feet. He comes closer to me kneeling at the head on my bed. "Are you okay? I called, texted, but no answer. I got worried!" He says as he brushes the hair out of my face with his hand. "You don't look so good love!" I nod and move back to make room for him. He climbs in and pulls me to his chest.

"Did I do something wrong to make you like this? Was it from this morning?" I smirk but shake my head no. "Adrian I have to tell you something and I'm scared you aren't going to be able to handle it." I say as calmly as I can. He lifts my chin, so that our eyes meet. "Does this have to do with Dimitri?" I shake my head. "It has nothing to do with Dimitri.. Just us!" He looks cautious as I can tell he wants me to continue and tell him. "Adrian I-" but I'm cut off by the dorm door opening. Lissa is standing there with the biggest smile on her face, happiness radiating off her in waves. Sticking out her hand she screams. "HE PROPOSED!"
