Chapter 20 :

Rose's POV :

"C'mon in, Rose." Dimitri said from the groom room after I knocked on his door several times.

I opened the door and entered feeling my way in. "Hi." I smiled as he took my hand leading me to a couch.

"Here sit." He said and sat next to me. "You look great, Rose."

I smiled. "Thank you. You really like my outfit?"

"Sure. You look amazing." He replied.

"I can't argue with that." Ivan, Dimitri's best friend, said with a smile coloring his tone.

"Thanks, Ivan." I said with a smile turning to his direction.

He came closer to us and I thought he took a seat but I wasn't sure. "Hey, Rose. You really look amazing."

I flushed as Dimitri's arm wrapped around my shoulders. "Yeah, that's my girl. She sure looks fascinating."

"Stop, guys. This isn't about me." I said with a smile fighting my blush. All these compliments reminded me of the one that was showering me with them months ago. And it hurt. A lot.

"I've to go and check on Viktoria. She'll be upset if I didn't take her hand for awhile and give her some kisses." He teased.

Dimitri threw something at him. A pillow? "I didn't need to know that. You should be happy I gave you my bless."

Ivan laughed as his voice and footsteps faded away.

I turned to Dimitri once we were alone. "How do you feel?"

He sighed. "I don't know."

"You're getting married, Dimka." I told him with a puzzled look.

"Don't worry about me, Roza. I'll be fine. Now tell me, how are you?" He asked squeezing my hand.

I shrugged. "Still processing. It's not going to happen easily. You can't just forget about your first."

A knock on the door interrupted us. Dimitri's hand on mine froze and I thought 'cause he saw the arrival. "Who's it, Dimka?" I asked confused. Who would do that to him. Shocked him that way.

"Jessica." He murmured before standing up.

My body stiffened. Jessica?

"Dimitri." She said softly and even though I couldn't see him I knew that word did a lot to him.

"Hello, Jessica." He said and I heard their footsteps. Yeah, I could recognize a high heel from flat shoes.

"Hello, Dimitri." She said. "How are you?" She asked and I recognized a pain none other than a blind could recognize. Did Dimitri notice it?

"I'm okay, how are you?" He asked her. Underlying longing was showing itself to me.

"I'm fine." She said and she was lying. I knew she was lying. "Sydney told me about you getting married and I wanted to congratulate you."

A pause then he spoke. "Thank you. It's good to see you, Jessica."

"It's good to see you too, Dimitri." She said and it came as a whisper. Painful one.

I stood up. "I'll give you some time alone." I said trying to calm my racing heart which remembered my long lost love. Her best friend. "It's good to see you, Jessica." I said.

"Thank you, Rose. Good to see you too." She said squeezing my hand before I felt my way leaving the room. I cursed myself for forgetting my cane with Sydney whom promised to come and take me from Dimtiri's room before the ceremony would start.

I walked slowly very aware to everything around me trying to remember my way back to my friends and family. A strange cologne came to me sense informing me about someone near me.

I felt him coming closer to me. I could feel his body heat radiating. I knew his eyes were on me. I gasped when his hand encircled my bare arm turning me to him. Not 'cause the hand was strange but 'cause I knew to whom it belonged.

"I love you, to my death, I love you, Rose." He said with all the pain and passion I could or couldn't imagine. I heard it in my heart and soul before my ears. I heard it like no one would hear.

My tears left my eyes uncontrollably. More like an ocean than anything else. My knees went weak and I almost fell if he didn't catch me between his arms.

I was going to die if I didn't feel his body pressed on mine. If I didn't feel his lips on my forehead. If I didn't feel his tears on my hands that were cupping his cheek.

"Adrian." I gasped feeling the familiar skin and lips.

"Rose. Rose." He whispered my name like a pray. Like he thought I was an angel or a goddess.

"I'm here." I whispered to him as he hugged me tightly to him while we cried our separation all those months.

"I love you. I'm sorry for what I did. Believe and forgive me. Please don't leave me again. I can't live without you. I can't live without you. Please, love me. Be with me. Have me as yours. Forever." He begged me like his life depended on that.

"I love you, Adrian. I don't want to leave anywhere without you. But- what you did-" His finger rested on my lips cutting me off.

"Shhh. I know I did wrong. I shouldn't do that in the first place. But, Rose, I don't want anyone but you. I'm in love with you. I tried my best looking for you everywhere but none would tell me anything. Please, give me this one chance to prove my love." He said before breathing deeply in my hair. "I missed you so much. I missed you to no end, Rose."

I nodded. "I missed you too." I murmured before someone interrupted us.

"What's going on here?" My father almost angry voice came to my hearing. Did he hear us?!

I turned to where his voice came to me. "Dad."

"You-" My father addressed Adrian sharply before I cut him off.

"No, you don't talk to him. You don't forbid him from seeing me. You don't separate us like you did before. Adrian loves me and I love him so much it hurt to be away from him.

"We're in love. I know you're worried about me and you just want to protect me but that's wrong. What you did to us was wrong. I don't want to live without my first love, dad. You need to accept that as it is." I said with all the strength I could possess as Adrian took me closer to him wiping my tears off my face.

My father was silent for awhile before he talked finally. "You hurt her, you're dead. You hear me?"

Adrian sighed and I could sense the happiness of getting my father's approval. "I'll never hurt her, sir."

"Okay, don't take long the ceremony will start soon." He said then his steps started to fade away from us.

"Did he just accept us being together?" Adrian asked shocked.

I giggled and nodded. "I think so." And I was taken to a very tight embrace by my boyfriend.

"I love you, Rose." He whispered and my heart skipped a beat.

"I love you too." I answered back before he took my hand to where the ceremony are taking place.

As we walked hand in hand seeking each other's closeness I knew we'll be together forever, no matter what. 'Cause a love like that, was immortal. Undying, eternal.
