I'm bbbbbaaaaaccccckkkk. AGAIN MY LOVELIES!

So lets find out who interrupted these two love birds.


Before whoever walked in could have even made it to past the dummies to see us, Dimitri pulled us both up to a standing position. Looking at his face, his eyes were down casted.

"Comrade? I"

"Hey Rose, I was just looking for you and figured you would be here." the intruder/ interrupter said.

Recognizing the voice, I turned to look at my long time good friend Mason. For the first time, I really was not happy to see him though. Why is he even up this early?! I could be making out with my Russian God by now!

"Hey Mase, what are you doing here?" even to my ears my voice sounded flat.

"Oh Lissa texted me last night saying that she invited me, you, and Eddie on this ski lounge trip for the holidays. I just came to let you know about it." he chirped

You have got to be fucking kidding me! I seriously wanted to punch someone. You mean to tell me that we got interrupted for information that I already knew! What did I do to deserve this?

"I already knew that Mason" I replied, rubbing my temples.

"Oh, ok, well I was letting you know in case you didn't, plus it seems like your training is pretty much over, so I thought we could head to breakfast to talk about it more with the rest of the group."

"alright" I sighed. No point in crying over spilt milk, I guess.

"What happened to Guardian Belikov? I thought I would at least see him when I came in"

Now that he mentioned it, where was Dimitri? Glancing around, I didn't even realize that he left. He has far to many tricks up his sleeve. We didn't even hug goodbye, but I guess Mason ruined any chance of that. I just hope he isn't mad at me for before though. Maybe I can pretend that I wasn't going to kiss him. I mean, he looked like he was into it, but maybe it was my own imagination. He might be uncomfortable around me, seeing me as some kind of sexual harasser.

Anyway, I can't focus on this now, hopefully everything will be fine by our next training session, I hate awkward moments.


A couple of days later and I was boarding the private plane to Vermont. Lissa isn't using her trust fund money. Since she is the last Dragomir, the queen wanted to ensure her safety, and since she was warned about the trip so far in advance, she was able to make arrangements for Lissa to travel on a private plane of hers.

I was the last person to get on today and I was trying to figure out where I should sit. First choice was with Lissa and Christian, who wasted no time to begin their few hours long make out session. Gross- but I could help the pang of jealousy I felt in my gut. Lissa, just like all Moroi, had the freedom to be with whoever she loved, no one will step in her way. In fact, people would be happy for her, meanwhile, I'm stuck madly in love with a man and we can't help but be separated by circumstances. Sitting in the row across, one seat back, and facing the other way was Eddie and Mason. I didn't feel like sitting in on teenage guy chat. Although we have all been close friends since we were 4, since puberty I have begun to find them a bit disgusting when they discussed things like bathing or their lack there of, plus I didn't want to get caught in the middle of one of their farting competitions.

There were a few more rows with some space, since we are traveling from one warded area to another, extra Guardians were not needed for the flight, the only Guardian on board was Dimitri. Looking for my Russian God, I found him sitting all the way in the back by the window, with a western already in his hands. Smoothly, I came over to sit next to him.

"Mind if I sit here?"

"Of course not Rose." He replied with a slight smile.

Knowing that it will be a few hours to Vermont I made sure I brought my laptop and some movies to keep myself occupied. Within a few minutes, I had my laptop set up with Twilight playing on the screen. I know I should hate this movie, but the first one was always so fascinating to me, and slightly comical since I actually live in the vampire world.

I got completely sucked in, soon it was one of my those super sexy scenes were Bella and Edward kiss for the first time. Even though I don't find Edward very attractive, the intensity of the scene did remind me of the man I seriously wanted to kiss sitting right next to me. Thinking about the kisses we shared the night of the lust charm quickly sent my mind elsewhere. His soft lips caressing mine passionately and firmly, the feeling of his big muscular arms wrapped around me while he licks my lips demanding entrance that I gratefully-

"I never took you as a romantic Roza" Dimitri whispered huskily in my ear, which would have made me moan if it didn't shock the hell out of me.


Sitting on the plane, I was more than happy when Roza came to sit next to me. I knew she asked for appearances. As if I would tell her no. I chuckled to myself. Soon she was reclined in her seat watching some movie on her laptop. I didn't have to listen to it since she had her headphones plugged in, but I can tell it was some sort of teenage romance movie. I was not paying attention for too long, preferring to read my book.

I was distracted though when I heard a sharp intake of air from Roza, glancing next to me I see her eyes glued to the laptop, but her face was a bit flushed. Looking at the screen, I saw the two main characters kissing. I almost wanted to bust out laughing. Looking back a Rose I can tell that she was getting turned on though. I can do a way better job then that skinny excuse of a man. I thought smugly. Roza's eyes had a far away look in them. I knew she had to be daydreaming about something else though. The idea of my Roza sitting next to me with a wet pussy almost made me want to drag her away somewhere private to satisfy ourselves, but instead I decided to snap her out of it. Leaning very close to her ear, inhaling her natural scent I whispered lowly "I never took you as a romantic, Roza" Rolling the r in her name a bit more.

She damn near jumped out of her seat. I guess she was really lost in her daydream. Looking at me I was able to see a light blush under her golden skin tone. I realized I never seen Roza blush before, but she looks so cute I just want to kiss her all over her face for it.

We were just staring at each other when Novice Ashford came, saying something to Rose.

"Eww Rose, I thought you had better taste in movies than Twilight" he teased

Flicking her head quickly in the other direction she snapped back

"Whatever Mason, how about you focus on getting that water hm, you seem to be dying of thirst most of the time anyway."

Shrugging his shoulders, Ashford headed back to his seat with two water bottles in hand, the presumed reason for him coming over hear since we sat by the mini fridge.

I must say, a few days ago I was very thankful for Ashford stepping into the gym when he did, interrupting Rose and I. Not because I didn't want to kiss her, Lord knows I did, but because I knew if I kissed her then, I wouldn't have stopped until I claimed her body completely right there on the gym floor. I may have had to go handle my problem on my own in the showers, but it reminded me of the barriers I have to maintain with her.

With him gone, Roza returned to her movie, rewinding some parts that she missed while we were staring at one another. Now, I wonder what would have happened had Novice Ashford not showed up. I think I would have preferred that outcome over this one.


Flopping back into my seat next to Eddie, I can't believe what I just saw. Quickly snatching his water bottle from my hand Eddie was trying to say something to me but I wasn't paying attention.

"What's up with you man?" he asked

"When I went over to get the waters, I saw Rose and Belikov talking, and Rose- Rose was blushing?"

"Ssssooooo?"

"Think Eddie, when have you ever known Rose Hathaway to blush, and it wasn't even the blush. She had this look on her face, like- I don't know, but it made her look kinda cute. You know like, beside smoking hot, she actually looked… cute."

I don't know why it was bothering me so much. I have seen Rose get interested in other guys before like Jesse Zecklos and stuff but she never looked at them like that. She never looked at me like that.

"You think she got a crush on Belikov?" I asked trying to prevent my voice from quivering.

"I wouldn't be surprised, almost half of all the female Moroi and Dhampir think Belikov is hot." He shrugged.

"Then I got no chance, I can't compete with that" I slumped over

"No Mase, that's not true"

"Why not?"

"Well, Belikov is more of a dream boat to the girls because he has what the women want, he is tall, handsome, has an accent, confident, reserved, plus he has a head of hair that-"

"Your point Eddie?" I muttered sourly

"You just have to exude that masculine energy that girls like, be confident, give her some attention but not too much, and take charge when you can."

"Take charge huh?" I think I like where this is going.

"Yeah, girls love the assertive type you know. A man who knows what he wants. Rose has to get horny sometime and if you show her your interest and confidence, she will be all up on you man" he said with a huge grin.

Nodding my head, I think I'm going to give it a shot. Even if I can only get Rose to be interested in me sexually, I take that as a win. It's not like Belikov looks at her that way anyway, he is just a dream for the girls. I am a reality.


Alright guys, there goes another chapter for you all. Looks like Mason really likes Rose and it going to pursue more than just friendship.
