Chapter 21: Scavenger Hunt Setup

Rose's P.O.V.

Walking to Dimitri's rooms so many emotions were trying to overrule me at once…Anger, at myself; regret; emptiness; confusion, as to why I had said it; sadness; and so on and so forth. I was trying not to have a mental breakdown. I stopped in front of his room trying to get ahold of my emotions…and to keep myself from bursting into tears. What is wrong with me? I thought for like the hundredth time since it had happened.

When I finally had everything under control, or as controlled as they could be, I knocked on his door. After a few seconds he answered the door, he was standing in his pajama pants, bare chested, and wet haired…Just as he had he night Victor had captured Lissa, the night of the lust charm spell.

We made eye contact and I could see the hurt shining and longing shining in his; I could tell his feelings were mixed as well. The feelings I had felt just seconds ago came flooding back. A sob formed in my chest as I barely whispered, "I'm sorry," I buried m face in my hands and instantly felt his arms wrap around me.

He backed up a bit, pulling me with him, and then I heard the door close and felt his chin rest on the top of my head.

"I—I don't know what came over me, my emotions haven't been in check lately… I—I love you, I really do, I want you, us, forever, forever and always. I can't imagine you not being by my side. Just know that, ok?" I said with my face still buried in his chest.

He pulled me back so he could look at me, and wiped my tears away with his thumbs. "I'm sorry for saying what I said about them being my family… I was just upset because I had been worried and the fact that I had no idea where you were."

"I was stupid, I should have told you, I just felt like I had to get back at you." I sniffled.

"Well, if we have things figured out…" He said, taking my engagement ring out of his pocket and getting down on one knee, "Rose, I know I've already asked you, but will you take the honor of being my wife?"

"Yes" I grinned.

He stood up and slid the ring back to its rightful spot on my left ring finger. We kissed for what seemed like hour. When we finally broke apart, to breath, I gave him a tight hug while breathing in his scent.

"Ok," I said. I glanced around the room and realized that there was a suitcase on Dimitri's bed. "Shit, I forgot you had to go with Lis and Fireboy on their honeymoon." I said as realization hit me.

"Yah, since tomorrow's the scavenger hunt and the day after is the wedding I decided now would be the best time to pack."

"I see…I'm gonna be with Eddie, Viktoria, Mia, and possibly Adrian though so I'll be fine"

"Before my mother leaves, she mentioned wanting to talk to you about wedding stuff."

"Can't we get it in tomorrow?"

"It's possible…I just don't know if we'll have time."

"Well, we've got to pick out a cake, and flavors, and invitations, and lots of other things."

"I don't think we can do flavors, but we can do cake design."

I yawned and looked at the half of Dimitri's bed that didn't have anything on it. Without another word I gave Dimitri one last kiss and climbed into his bed. I closed my eyes and fell asleep to the sound of drawers quietly sliding open and closing as Dimitri finished packing his suitcase.

***NEXT MORNING***

I woke up peacefully wrapped in Dimitri's arms. He still had no shirt on and was sound asleep. I watched him sleep for a while, and then started tracing circles on his chest. His eyelids fluttered open and he looked at me with his eyes full of desire.

Suddenly my phone started buzzed. "Hello?" I croaked.

"Um, where are you? Wait, don't answer that, I know where you are… Last night Lissa said she wants us all to meet as soon as we can to write clues and hide things." Viktoria said.

I clear and said, "Ok, ok I'll be there soon."

"Ok, bye."

"Bye"

"Well it seems I've got to go." I told Dimitri.

We both got out of bed and I took a quick shower with Dimitri. After our shower I slipped into my sweatpants, put one of Dimitri's t-shirts on, and used my ponytail holder to tie the back up. I gave Dimitri a kiss and left him sitting on his bed reading yet another one of his classic, western novels.

When I made it to my room I took my key out of my pocket and unlocked the door. Viktoria, Mia, and Lissa were sitting on the floor. Trays of breakfast food were sitting on the desk; waffles, pancakes, French toast, bagels, toast, and doughnuts (glazed), bacon, hash browns, and scrambled eggs.

As if on cue my stomach growled. "Yum" I said. "What's with all the food, not that I'm complaining."

"I just thought that you'd need some food after burning all those calories this morning…and we were hungry." Lis said

"You got pulled into my head?"

"Yah, but I pulled right back out."

"Did you see what happened last night too?"

"If you're talking about making up, yes… Your emotions were everywhere, I pulled out when you two started making out."

"You didn't miss much, after that I went to bed and he finished packing."

"Ok, enough talking about my brother…let's get down to business." Viktoria said.

"I grabbed a plate and filled it up with a bunch of everything, and then I sat down next to Mia."

Dimitri's P.O.V.

As soon as Rose left I called Christian and said, "Are we still waiting in Adrian's room?"

"Yah, I'll call Eddie."

We had already gotten together, right before the rehearsal and figured out the 8 items we were going to be hiding. Adrian opened the door for us and after writing a couple of clues he said, "Whose in the mood to eavesdrop on the girls?"

"What'd you have in mind?" Christian asked.

***OUTSIDE ROSE'S DOOR AND WINDOW***

Eddie and Adrian were standing outside Rose's bedroom door while Christian and I were outside on her balcony, by her window.

Then we heard Rose say, "So, we're hiding the pink bear in the teachers' lounge."

"Okay, how is the clue gonna go?" Mia asked.

"Let's take a break, I need to go get some water," Lissa said.

"Yah, and I need some fresh air." Rose said.

Christian and I looked over at each other and started creeping backwards….we were screwed.

Rose's P.O.V.

We were sitting on the floor writing down ideas on what where we were going to hide things when we heard whispers coming from outside my door, and feet shuffling on my balcony. I motioned for everyone to be quiet and stand up, and said, "So, we're hiding the pink bear in the teachers' lounge."

"Okay, how is the clue gonna go?" Mia asked, while she said that I motioned for her and Viktoria to go to the door and for Lis and I go to the balcony door.

"Let's take a break, I need to go get some water,"Lis said.

"Yah, and I need some fresh air." I said.

"Shit" We heard someone curse from outside the bedroom door. I counted to three with my fingers and we opened the doors at the same time.

"Not so fast." I heard Viktoria say.

We saw Christian and Dimitri just about ready to climb down. "I don't think so," I said, grabbing Christian's hair. I go to grab Dimitri's and he turns around and grabs my wrist instead.

"Back up and come into Rose's room," Lissa commanded.

The four of us walked into my room. We saw Mia and Viktoria pulling Eddie and Adrian by the backs of their shirt's.

"What the hell are you guys doing?" I asked.

"Spying on you," Adrian said drunkenly.

"No shit Sherlock," Viktoria said.

"It was a rhetorical question." I scoffed.

"Language" Dimitri scolded.

Don't even go there." I scolded back.

We kicked them out and continued doing what we had been doing before the boy's rude, snooping, interruption. We quickly got all of our clues done and handed them over to Alberta.

"We still have to take pictures of each of the items, but we're gonna do that while we hide them.' Lis said, handing the clues over to her. We were sitting in Lissa's room with Alberta while the boys were making their rounds to hide their items.

When it came our turn to hide things, we had 30 minutes, just like the guys. Mia took pictures with her phone and would be texting them to Alberta after she parted with the guys. When we were done we had 30 minutes to kill, so Mia and Lissa went back to their room to change into their black t-shirts, black jeans, and black converse. Vik and I did the same, except we wore black cargo pants instead of black jeans.

By the time we had finished getting ready it was time for everyone to meet in the cafeteria, so I grabbed flashlights and on we went.

Two more chapters to come, dealing with the scavenger hunt.
