Light Up The Sky
"Can I talk to you?" I asked Dimitri as we laid in bed that night.
"Sure." he said switching the channel "What's on your mind."
"When you asked why I punched Bo and I said I don't know I lied." I told him "I got really mad when he said that Devin was his kid."
"He said Devin was his?" Dimitri asked finally taking his attention away from the television "Is that even possible?"
"NO!" I told him. And that was the truth there was no possible way that Devin was Bo's. "We just promised no more lies and secrets so I wanted to tell you."
"Well, thank you." Dimitri wrapped an arm around me and pulled me close to him. "I love you."
"I love you too." I told him. There was a knock on the bedroom door and Devin ran into the room.
"Can I sleep in here?" Devin asked giving us his puppy eyes.
"Sure." I said reaching down and picking him up.
"Hi baby." Devin said kissing my stomach. "Mama, is the baby a boy or girl?"
"I'm hoping it's a girl." I told him "But daddy wants a boy."
"I want a boy too." Devin said high fiving Dimitri. "We can name him Batman."
"No we will not name him Batman." I said.
"But-" Devin was cut off by the sound of are alarm going off. William started barking in our room and Dimitri was out of the bed in a second. He grabbed my arm and yanked me into our closet and set Devin on my lap. He threw William and Bruce in as well.
"Stay here." He said grabbing his gun and closing the door. I heard our bedroom door open and Dimitri walk out.
"Mama?" Devin whispered and I placed my hand over his mouth. The alarm turned off.
"Shh." I said holding Devin to my chest. After a few more minutes the closet door opened and Dimitri reached down and grabbed Devin. William and Bruce ran out as well. "Everything okay?" I grabbed Dimitri's hand to get out of the closet.
"I checked the whole house and everything seems to be fine." Dimitri said as he set Devin on the bed. "You okay?"
"Yeah, it just freaked me out." I told him.
"It's fine. I promise." Dimitri said kissing my head. Hopefully he was right.
"You know you would think it would be fun to be in the paper but it's not." I said looking the paper. It just came out to everything that I was pregnant again and it wasn't Dimitri's. But in reality it was his.
"I can't believe you let another man get you pregnant." Olena said smiling.
"Do you deal with this all the time?" Aleksandr asked.
"Yeah." I sighed "It's common. From the time I started dating Dimitri this is what would happen. It's rough but we always ignore it. It's never true."
"I don't know how'd I would be able to deal with all that." Aleksandr said. Lissa walked into the kitchen and grabbed a water from the fridge.
"Whoa, Rose you're getting fat." I looked down at my stomach. I had a little fat. Nothing big at all. Lissa was just being stupid.
"Thanks." I said smiling
"Where's Devin?" Lissa asked
"He's with our neighbor and her two sons." I told them "I think they're going to the park." Lissa cell phone rang.
"It's Christian." She said smiling and walking out of the kitchen.
"All my kids are falling in love." Aleksandr said wrapping an arm around Olena and kissing her forehead.
"But think you have grandkids to deal with." I pointed out.
"Guys," Lissa said rushing back into the kitchen "someone set the art studio on fire." No. My art. I rushed to my car and drove as fast as I could. When I reached the building the fire was slowly being put out. The whole building was gone. All my art.
"No." I whispered. Lissa walked over and wrapped an arm around my shoulder.
"Hey, some of your art is still in your basement." Lissa said trying to make me feel better.
"I know, but the ones here were the ones I was planning on keeping." I took a deep breath to control myself.
"Rose." Dimitri ran up to us "Rose, I'm so sorry. We tried to get your painting out but it was too late."
"It's okay." I said staring at the burned down building. "It's just so hard to believe they were gone."
"We'll go through everything once the fire is fully out and we'll see if we can find anything" Dimitri told me. I nodded. "Lissa, take her home." Lissa pulled me away from the burned down building and I drove myself home.
What I wasn't expecting was my mother to be sitting in my living room when I walked in the door." How the hell did you get in here?"
"The neighbor. I convinced her that it was an emergency and I needed to speak to you right away." Janine said.
"Well what do you want?" I asked crossing my arms over my chest.
"I want my daughter back." That caught me completely off guard. "Rose, the things I've done and said are so unacceptable it's crazy."
"Mom.." I said trailing off.
"Rose, I know you loved Mason and I had no right to say the things I said to you four years ago. Or to blame you for almost taking those pills." she was starting to get teary eyed.
"I don't know what to say." I said sitting down in a close chair.
"Say you'll think about it. Because I would love to formally meet Dimitri, and Devin. I would love to start over and have a real relationship with you."
"I just - this is too much right now." I told her. She looked hurt "But, I'll think about it."
"Thank you, Rose." My mom said standing. "Call me whenever. Okay, and just let's talk."
"Okay." I nodded and she left. I was numb. Did that really just happen? Did my mother really just apologize for everything. I was amazed. But she wasn't going to get off that easily. She had to work for it. William trotted over and sat next to me.
"Mama?" I heard Devin yell as he walked into the house.
"In here." I shouted. Devin walked his little body in the living room and stood in front of me.
"Mama, I'm so hungry." Devin said rubbing his stomach.
"Oh really?" I asked picking him up and walking into the kitchen "What do you want to eat?"
"Cheese!" Devin said smiling. I set him on the counter.
"Cheese? Just cheese?" he nodded. I reached in the fridge and grabbed him a cheese stick. "Happy?"
"Mhm." Devin said eating his cheese. "Mama, why don't you and daddy have the same last name? Mrs. Karen and her husband do."
"Well you see Mrs. Karen and Mr. Kevin are married. Your daddy and I aren't married yet." I told him.
"Yet?"
"Yeah, as soon as I have the baby your daddy and I are going to get married."
"How long have you and daddy been together?" Devin asked. I thought about for a moment
"4 years." I told him.
"Wow, how many days is that?" Devin asked. I did the best math I could in my head
"1460." I said. His eyed widened with amazement.
"That's like forever." Devin said smiling
"Well I love your daddy so it doesn't seem like we've been together that long." I said kissing Devin's forehead and setting him on the ground. He ran off into the living room and followed him.
Lissa POV
"Let's get married." Christian said. My head snapped up and looked at him.
"Are you crazy?" I asked. I flipped my magazine closed and threw it on his living room table.
"No." Christian said smiling "I mean, I don't want a big wedding and I know you don't want a big wedding so let's elope."
"Okay, you seriously must be on something." I said walking into the kitchen. Christian followed after me.
"Lissa, look at me." Christian said taking me by my shoulder and turning me to face him "I love you, and to tell you the truth I don't think I'll ever be able to love someone as much as I love you." Christian reached in his pocket and pulled out the most amazing diamond ring.
"Christian, stop joking around this isn't funny anymore." I told him.
"Lissa," Christian said taking my face in his hands "This isn't a joke. I'm not going anywhere this time. I'm here to stay. I want you, all of you. I want to get married and start a family so please say yes." So many thoughts were running through my head. What was I going to say?
"When should I start packing?" I answered smiling. Christian lifted me up in his arms and kissed me.
"I love you so much." He whispered.
Rose POV
"Do people realize that we sleep?" Dimitri grumbled at he got up to answer the phone. I looked up and the clock read 5:35 in the morning. Kill me now. I laid back down. "Hello? Yeah, why are you calling me? You're where? Why? Shut the fuck up, no you didn't?" I sat up and looked at Dimitri. He just looked at me and smile "Alright, but you know she's not going to be happy to hear this. Bye."
"Who was that?" I asked.
"Christian. Him and Lissa are in Las Vegas."
"Why are they in Las Vegas?"
"They got married." Dimitri said smiling. I on the other hand was not smiling. I was pissed. How could my two best friends not tell me something like this?
"That's just great." I said through gritted teeth. I shoved my head under a pillow and tried to hide how pissed I was.
"Rose," I felt Dimitri pulling the pillow off my head "it's okay to be mad."
"I'm not mad." I said quietly.
"Babe, I know you." Dimitri said laying down next to me "You're pissed, and so am I. I mean I would have loved to see my sister get married but remember we almost eloped once."
"Yeah but we were talking out of it." I told him. A couple months after Devin was born Dimitri had the idea for us to elope but Viktoria and Lissa talked us out of it. "I just wished they would have told us."
"I know." Dimitri said kissing my forehead. "We'' yell at them when they get back."
"Okay." I said sighing.
"I know what will make you smile. We are getting out of town for a little."
"Really? When?"
"Tomorrow. We're flying to Cleveland, Ohio and were going to an Indians game. I know you love the Indians."
"Just Grady Sizemore." I said smiling. Dimitri gave me a funny look "But I think you're way more good looking than Grady."
"Thank you. We get on the plane around 6:30 so I'll get off work at five and by the time we get everything ready to go we'll get there by six."
"Well aren't you just the little planner." I told him.
"I learned from the best." Dimitri said smiling "I even got us a nice hotel."
"This is very thoughtful of you, but why are we leaving? There is usually something behind it."
"Just think for a moment and you'll realize what today is." I thought about it for a few minutes, then it hit me.
"Oh my gosh, tomorrow is the first day we met." I said getting a little teary eyed. "I can't believe I forgot."
"It's okay." Dimitri said smiling "You've had a lot on your mind. I think this trip will be great for both of us."
"It's a brilliant idea, thank you." I said kissing him.
"Mama, is this plane going to hurt me?" Devin asked as we sat waiting for our plane to board.
"No, sweetie." I said rubbing his head "You'll be fine. Plus you have your blanket."
"You'll be fine, you're a big boy." Dimitri told Devin. Devin cuddled up against my side and I wrapped my arm around him.
"How long are we staying?" I asked Dimitri.
"Three days." Dimitri said looking at his phone. He had been acting strange since he got home from work and I was really starting to wonder why. Just this morning he was so sweet and now he was bring so distant.
We boarded the plane and I strapped Devin next to the window because that's where he wanted to be seated. We took off and Devin said nothing just stared out the window.
"Is something wrong?" I whispered to Dimitri. I was not getting through to him and I was getting pissed. "Honestly, Dimitri?"
"What?" he said looking at me like he did nothing.
"You have been so quiet. When you're like this it means you're mad. So tell me what happened?"
"Nothing, Rose. Please, can we just drop this and enjoy the weekend?" How come he can never tell me what's bothering him.
"Fine." I said. The plane rife took forever but once we got there it was hot. Very hot. It took another hour to get to our hotel and by the time we did that Devin was already passed out. Our room was big with three bedrooms. I placed Devin in the one and met Dimitri in the living room.
"The game is tomorrow around six. If we get there early we can possibly meet some of the players." Dimitri said sitting on the couch.
"Oh so you want to be nice now?" I asked sitting next to him
"I was nice before." I gave him a funny look "Okay, maybe I was a little moody and I'm sorry."
"Are you going to tell me why?" I asked him
"Bo is buying a house. Seven blocks away from us." Why could he not just leave us alone. I rubbed my forehead.
"This sucks." I sighed "But I'm not letting this ruin our trip. Got it?" Dimitri leaned over and gave me a wet kiss. "Ew, what was that for?"
"For being the most amazing women I have ever met.
"Can you please stop being all moody now? It was a rough plane ride. I wanted to cuddle with you but you were acting like you were on your period."
"Come here." Dimitri said pulling me over and I cuddled up next to him. "I love you."
"I love you too, but no more being mean, okay?"
"Okay." Dimitri said kissing my forehead.
I like this chapter. You got to see Rose's mom.
Bo is moving in? WHAT? :) I know right.
Alright tell me what you think.
