A/N: I seem to be doing all right in updating at the moment…I guess knowing I don't have much time makes me write quicker…

Dimitri slowly opened the door. Like he was afraid of waking me up. But I was awake. Lissa was in the room next door and had insisted that I got some rest. Which of course didn't happen. Dimitri sat next to me on the bed.

"How's Gabrielle?" I asked.

"She's fine. A little shaken but fine." Dimitri sighed and took my hand, he played with my fingers, "But I think we have, well she has to decide what she wants to do, with the Moroi. Eddie's right, she doesn't like it."

"Well, I suggest we leave her to it. She can decide on her own. Although Adrian will probably help her out." I smiled a little.

"Yes. I'm sure he will." Dimitri let go of my hand, "I've had a call saying Liam's locked up in one of the Courts cells with twenty four hour Guard. And they've all been told to never look directly at him. Because apparently, his compulsion is particularly good for a Strigoi."

"Wow…and Strigoi are really good with compulsion." I muttered.

"Apparently it's to do with Gabrielle's magic."

"Again." I sighed, "Her magic causes her all sorts of problems."

"I know." Dimitri closed his eyes, "She hates it."

"Uh huh…can we talk about something else? Anything other than Gabrielle?" I asked slowly.

"Sure…what?"

"Um…us…you know, we're engaged and haven't so much as thought about a wedding. Or telling my mother…" I frowned.

Dimitri chuckled, "We'll work it out Roza. She'll understand."

"You have met my mother right?" I raised my eyebrows, not even bothering to try for one.

"Yes Rose, I have. But Lissa's right. You should get some rest. I have no idea what's happening tomorrow." Dimitri said sighing.

"I am tired." I admitted lying back on the bed.

Dimitri turned the lights out.

Adrian managed to wake me up by somehow kicking me in the middle of the night…I do not know how he managed that but he did. I got of the bed and took a shower, yes it was technically the middle of the night but I really had no idea what planet I was on, let alone what time it was. And I needed a distraction. I'd realised, a long time ago, the best way to get over bite withdrawal was to sleep on it, and now that Adrian had woke me up, I had no chance of getting back to sleep because of the withdrawal.

After a while I turned the heat off of the shower, I was hoping a cold shower would help. But actually, it just made me really cold. I couldn't think properly. I felt really, really weird. I got out of the shower, wrapped a towel around myself and lied back on the bed and stared at the ceiling.

Adrian sat up.

"When did you shower?" He asked brushing my slightly damp hair out of my face.

"A couple of hours ago. My hair's almost dry." I sat up myself.

"Wouldn't that have been...like the middle of the night?" He sounded really confused.

"Yep." I smiled a little.

"Why?" He ran a hand over his hair.

"You kicked me."

"I...I what?" He frowned.

"You kicked me in the middle of the night." I said smiling.

"Why would I do that?" He looked even more confused.

"No idea." I kissed him lightly on the lips, "I'm going to get dressed."

I stood up and raided the suitcase Adrian had packed carelessly for me from the hotel back where I'd been before.

"Did you pack everything?" I asked him.

"Nope. I told the hotel to send anything I'd left back to Court. I gave them the address." Adrian sighed, "I didn't leave out anything important did I?" He asked.

"You only packed the sexy stuff, not the normal stuff. The stuff I wear every day." I turned to him, "Do you have any idea what the papers are gonna say?" I sighed.

"Elle, you're fine, look." He pulled some stuff out, "Jeans, t-shirts, you only looked on the surface." He smirked.

I slapped him, "Stop it. Stop being such an idiot."

"I can't help it, it's in my nature." He smiled and crossed his arms across his chest.

I groaned and got dressed.

"So tell me honestly, how are you doing?" Adrian asked wrapping his arms around me.

"I'm...all right I guess. I feel kinda weird, from the bite withdrawal but...surprisingly I kind of feel good, knowing he's locked up now. I don't have to be...I dunno, afraid anymore." I sighed.

"But you're not...unstable or anything?"

"Adrian!" I protested.

"I'm serious." He bent his head down to look at me, "What you went through...Elle, it would have been really difficult, horrible for you." He kissed my cheek, "Come on, I think we should get a Guardian to get you a feeder or some blood from somewhere."

"Rose." A soft accented voice murmured in my ear.

"Go away." I groaned rolling over. I was sure I would never be a morning person.

"Come on, we have to get in a car. We're going to Cardiff." Dimitri said throwing the covers off me.

"Five more minutes." I buried my face in the pillow.

"Rose." He growled, "They're waiting for you."

"Ugh." I sat up and ran a hand over my eyes, "Why?"

"Because I didn't want to get you up any earlier than I had to." He said smiling slightly.

"Uh huh." I stood up and made my way into the bathroom, "I have to shower."

"Want some company?" He asked a small smile playing on his lips.

"Nope. You pissed me off by waking me up." I smiled and shut the bathroom door.

A/N: Sorry for the shortness of this chapter but I wanted to show you guys how the two couples were with each other after everything that had happened.

Reviews are awesome, I'd like ten reviews making the total...229!
