The Eyes of Heavenly Fire

Chapter 8

Rose

Rose waked up snuggled against Dimitri's body. He felt nice and warm. She couldn't help but smile. Her birthday had took an interesting turn. She had imagined her birthday would be boring as hell, but instead she had met her guardian angel. How many girls could say that?

She felt his body stir as Dimitri finally opened his eyes. They really were beautiful even with the weird hints of green in them.

"Are you ready for school?" he asked throwing off the covers.

She groaned and clung onto his body which earned her a chuckle.

"Come on Rose. The angel's council won't be happy with me if I let you skip school."

"Do you always have to be a perfect angel?"

He laughed again and pulled her out of bed with his strength.

"Hey. No fair. I can't even fight you with your immortal strength."

He shrugged and gripped her into a bear hug.

"Would I become like you if you exchanged blood with me?"

"No."

"Oh can I bite you then?"

"Why would you want to do a thing like that?"

"It's a turn on for me."

"Oh."

"Would you bite me?"

"That would hurt you."

"Not for long. What are you afraid of?"

"The effects of an angel's bite."

"I thought you couldn't hurt me."

"An angel bite is an abnormal thing to have. It would get me in trouble with the council."

"I'm sleeping here tonight. I still have so many questions about angels and the bad ones."

"They like the word fallen."

"I really don't care what they like."

Rose gathered the clothes he had brought for her and went into the bathroom. Amazingly, Dimitri had laid out one of her favorite outfits. She smiled at the thought and noticed it was six o clock. She shrugged off her clothes and stepped into the shower.

She turned the water all the way up and yelped when the water was scolding hot. She scrambled away and then the door flew open and Dimitri stepped through glowing with fury and preparing to face an uncertain battle.

Rose stepped towards him and his eyes widened. She blushed knowing that it was because she was butt ass naked with her hair dripping everywhere on her body.

"I'm so sorry. I shouldn't have screamed. The water was so hot and I wasn't thinking."

He handed her a towel and she wrapped it around herself.

"It's okay. Are you hurt?"

"No. I'm just a little pink."

He turned down the water and gestured to the shower.

"It should be okay now."

"Thank you."

She expected him to stay, but he quickly scrambled out of the bathroom. She sighed and stepped back into the shower to prepare for her day.
