The Notebook Two

Roses POV

I knew I shouldn't have come, there are young couples all around us, the feeling in the air is one of excitement and then I spot Christian making his way towards us, Dimitri following behind, a small smile on his face as he watches me.

"What a coincidence, running into you both here!" Lissa says looking back at me with a cheesy grin on her face.

"You're a terrible liar." I tell her as she pulls me forward with her to meet the boys.

"Yeah but you're still here so it works." She let's me go and steps into Christians embrace. I look to Dimitri who is still watching me.

"Hi." He tells me.

I look down before looking back up at him. "Hi." I tell him back.

"You look very beautiful." He says.

In all honesty I decided to dress a little nicer just because I was afraid I was being set up on a date tonight. "Thank you." I tell him.

"You two are just so cute." Christian says looking between the two of us.

I roll my eyes, "Are you ready to go in?" Dimitri asks.

I nod, "Sure."

I don't know which is more awkward, sitting in the back of the theater which is known as the makeout spot, sitting next to two people who are making out or having Dimitri sitting next to me watching my every move. Once the movie is over for some reason I don't want the night to be over.

"Do you want to go somewhere?" Dimitri asks, a whisper in my ear.

I look up at him and nod. "Okay."

"Hey, you two coming?" Christian asks.

"Nah," Dimitri answers. "We're going to walk." He says.

Dimitri is nothing but a gentlemen, walking on the side closer to the street, he's curios about me and what I like to do, its not something I'm used to.

"I use to paint." I tell him as we walk.

"What happened, why don't you now?" He asks as we get closer to the park.

"Just got to busy I guess." I answer him.

I look up at him to find him staring intently down at me. I feel a blush rush across my face and I look away and then I look back at him to now find him smiling. Now I can't help but smile at him

"Will you stop?" I ask laughing.

He clutches his chest. "What did I do?"

"You keep looking at me." I say looking anywhere else but at him.

He grabs my hand and stops me. "You're beautiful, I can't help but look at you." His large warm hand reaches up and brushes across my neck and my heart tightens and then picks up double speed. He leans towards me and I take a step back leaving him stund. I laugh at him and walk a few steps away before taking a seat on the grass. I lay back and look up at the night sky and Dimitri doesn't hesitate to join me.

We're quite for a moment, resting in a comfortable silence and then something magical happens.

The sky lights up, bright white and glowing blue as a falling star enters our atmosphere. It's so beautiful it actually takes my breath away.

"It's so beautiful." I whisper as it actually lasts more than a couple seconds.

"Make a wish." I hear whispered next to me.

I smile at Dimitri. "I wouldn't know what to wish for." I say softly back.

I look back up to the star when I hear him again. "I know what I'll wish for."

I don't know why, it's something in his voice that makes me turn to look back at him, he almost seems closer now, his eyes hooded, he's leaning on his elbow so that he's above me. I look from his lips to his eyes back to his lips. My heart is pounding, this huge butterfly is fluttering in my tummy and then I find myself leaning closer, tilting my head just a bit as he starts to move closer. Slowly his warm lips ghost mine, I can almost feel him, oh and now I really want to feel him, I feel his hand rest on my bare neck before his lips finally reach mine, smooth, soft, my lips automatically move with his and his fingers trace my jaw in the softest way. My hands reach up and tangle into his silky hair, pulling him closer to me and he doesn't disappoint. He's the one who has to pull away because I think I could kiss him forever.

He takes a deep breath after laying back and of all things I end up giggling. "Was that your wish?" I ask him.

He smiles over at me. "Not exactly, it was more like I really wish she'd give me a chance, but that was so much better." He laughs, I go to smack his side but his hand catches mine and his fingers lace through with mine. "Did you ever think of a wish?"

"Does it still work even after it disappears?" I ask him looking back up to the sky.

"There's always a possibility." He says.

With my heart soaring into the stars I whisper. "I wish you'd kiss me again." I look back to him and the smile that is there, that's everything. He leans back over without the hesitation and kisses me like there's no tomorrow.

Dimitri's POV

Boy I'm in trouble with this one, I've never felt this before. We're meeting Rose and Lissa at the river, things have been going well since Rose and I shared our first kiss under that falling star, there has been many more since. I spot Rose sitting on a large blanket with Lissa, both wearing their swim wear. Rose looks up at me and a small smile graces her lips, she looks back down before looking back up and smiles a little bigger, a beautiful blush rushing her face, damn...

"Man, she's so into you." Christian says nudging my shoulder. When I don't answer he looks up at me, "Damn."

That does get me to look at him. "What?" I ask, I just can't help but smirk now.

"You're both so into each other." He says.

I look back to her and she is leaning into Lissa giggling, "Yeah, it's a pretty amazing feeling, she's... amazing."

Christian laughs, "I get it man, I think Lissa might be it for me."

I raise an eyebrow, "You think? I don't know anyone else willing to put up with your ass as long as she has." He thumb shanks me in the ribs before running the rest of the way to the girls, I follow right after.

After an hour of swimming Rose decided to dry off and get some sun and when Lissa and Christian started making out I decided it was time for me to join Rose. She smiles over at me and then at her best friend. "They're so in love." She sighs.

"Yeah, they are." I agree with her. "He told me he thinks she's it for him."

She looks at me wide eyed. "No kidding huh? That will make Lissa very happy."

"Do you want to go get some ice cream?" I ask her. She gives me that beautiful smile of hers before nodding and giving me her hand to pull her up. She slips on a loose dress over her swimwear and slips her sandals on next. I pull on a shirt and then my shoes, leaving my still slightly damp shorts. "We'll be back!" I call to the idiots in the water. They don't even come up for air. I take Roses hand and walk with her towards town.

"I was thinking, let me take you out dancing." I tell her.

She raises an eyebrow at me. "Whats with you and dancing?" She asks amused, plus it wasn't a no at least not yet.

I smile down at her and her grip on my hand tightens just a little. "I'm really great at dancing." I wink down at her and she blushes.

"Alright, I'll let you take me out." She says with a smile, looking away. "But I'll be the judge on whether you're a good dancer or not."

We make it to the ice cream shop and she orders a plain vanilla I get chocolate.

"I'm going to show you Rose, I'll be the best you've ever had." I tell her.

She laughs, "What are you talking about?"

"I'm really great at dancing, anyone else you'll dance with will never compare." I tell her.

"Oh really? You're starting to make me think you're terrible, maybe I don't want to go out with you after all." she says laughing.

We're back at the park and headed for the gazebo now. "How about I prove it to you."

"Right now?" She squeaks.

"Yes." I take her ice cream from her and set it down. "Right now."

"But we're in the park." She says.

I take her hand. "It's already getting later, not many people are out."

"We have no music." She says.

I laugh, "You're starting to sound like you can't dance now."

"I take classes, I know how to dance." She says.

"Then I'll make the music." I tell her, pulling her closer. "Bum, Bum

Bum, bum, bum,

Bum,

Bum, bum,

Bum, bum, bum,

Bum, bum."

"You're a terrible singer." Rose tells me with a small laugh. That sound, it pierces right through my soul and right into my heart.

"I know." I tell her as we sway back and forth.

"But I really like this song." She tells me and she leans a bit more against me.

I'll be seeing you

In all the old familiar places

That this heart of mine embraces

All day through

In that small cafe

The park across the way

The childrens carousel

The chestnut trees...

The wishing well

I'll be seeing you...

"Armed with warnings and doubts Dimitri and Rose gave a remarkably convincing portrayal of a boy and a girl traveling down a very long road, with no regards for the consequences." I read out loud.

Marie oh'd, "They fell in love, didn't they?" She asks me, having payed closely attention to the story.

I smile over at her. "Yes, they did."

"Good." She says smiling too. "I like this kind of story. Go on."

I close my eyes, theses feelings will never get old. "After that night Dimitri and Rose spent every waking hour together..."
