September Rain

Chapter 8

Rose inhaled the cold Pennsylvania air and stepped off of the plane and into Lissa's arm.

"Oh Rose, I've missed you."

"I've missed you too Liss. So what have I missed?"

"Not much. It's been boring here without you."

"Well I do love how awesome it is to be missed."

"Sadly I must get back to work."

"Well you'll survive." Lissa said with a smile.

"Hmm so what are we doing today?"

"Well I need to shop for this boring banquet. Do you want to come with me?"

"Of course."

Rose and Lissa drove in the car and then got out. It was dangerous to be here at night, but Rose had no doubt that she could protect Lissa. Then she felt the sick sensation and was tossed into the car. Lissa screamed as Rose gained her composure and fought with the strrogoi. She got an opening in but she was fading fast. That toss had really hurt.

When she had finally fought off the strogoi and killed him. She could barely stand up straight. Lissa looked at her with a look of concern on her face.

"Rose"

Rose gasped and passed out on the ground.

When Rose woke up, she stared up at the white ceiling. It appeared as if she had somehow gotten to the Moroi court hospital. She groaned and looked over to see Lissa in a chair by her bed.

"I'm sorry for passing out. I have no clue why I did that."

"I do." The doctor said coming in holding Rose's chart.

"What's the news doctor?"

"It appears as if congratulations are in order."

"What for?"

"You're pregnant Rose. It appears that you're six weeks along. I suggest a lot of bed rest though."

"Thank you doctor." Rose said in shock.

The doctor left as Rose stared at Lissa.

"How am I going to tell Dimitri?"

Lissa smiled mischievously. "I think I have an idea."
