I hope you like this story. Your feedback and reviews are greatly appreciated.

It was just another one of those Monday mornings I hated, but I guess that having my private and intimate training sessions with Dimitri made up for it. The Strigori attack was now only a mere memory, graduation now only months away.

Nearing the gym, earlier than usual, I had heard the moans of a woman; the grunting of a man. Curious I crept closer and closer towards the sound, finally arriving at the door of the gym. The door was ajar, and although it was still early out, it was an unmentioned but understood rule that the gym doors were to be shut and locked at all times. Not only that but the sounds coming from the gym weren't pleasant, and I believed against the rules. But then again, I am Rose Hathaway so what do I know about following the rules.

I was about to turn around to give the lovers some privacy, not wanting to see anything unnecessary due to the fact that I had no idea who was inside but a shrill voice from inside changed my mind.

"Oh my gosh that feels so good, harder Dimka, harder." I was shocked. Dimka? Dimitri? What was going on here? That woman sounded like Tasha, but she wasn't due for a visit anytime soon. Many questions flooded my mind, and there weren't any reasonable answers to my questions. Unable to leave, I opened the doors to a sight that would haunt me for the rest of my life.

I gasped. Dimitri in his 6ft glory was on top of a woman, otherwise known as Tasha, naked, sweat glistening upon his body. I couldn't believe my eyes, the man that I loved, the man that took away my virginity, was right in front of me having sex with another woman. My heart shattered into a million pieces. He cheated on me. I just couldn't believe it.

"Rose, is that you?" asked Tasha.

Unable to answer, I just stood there speechless.

"Oh thank God. It would have been so bad we were caught by someone else, right Dimka?"

Dimitri finally aware of his comprising position with Tasha quickly got up and pulled up his boxers about to run after me as I bolted from the gym and as soon as he caught up to me, he grabbed my arm. "Fuck off Dimitri!" I was so angry at him. He used me! I can't believe my own eyes, but the truth had revealed itself to me. He wasn't in love with me; he never was in love with me. He was using me until Tasha came back. Everything he's ever said to me, it was all just lies.

"It's not what you think Roza!" As if I would ever believe his little phony act about loving me forever until the day one of us dies.

"Don't you dare call me that, and if it wasn't what I think it is then what could it possibly be?" I was beyond angry, yet I was still able to control my temper and not throw a tantrum!

"It- it's just not what you think it is and if you don't believe me then too bad. I don't give a damn if you care or not, and I used to think that you trusted me!" So that's how he was going to be huh.

"You're right! I did trust you, but that was just poor judgment on my part. I thought you were different, but you're just like everyone else. Once you get into my pants, you just leave me. I loved you Dimitri, but I guess that doesn't matter anymore." I felt the urge to scream at him. This was all wrong. We never fought, well not verbally but physically yes.

"Whatever. I'll see you around Rosemarie."

"Same to you Guardian Belikov."

On that note we both turned corners, he went to find Tasha I suppose and I was just wandering aimlessly that is until I walked right into what seemed a stone wall.

It was Adrian. Oh great, just great; two guys in one day and breakfast hasn't even been served yet.

"Little Dhampir, you must watch where you're going. Wouldn't want you to walk into the hands of some pervert or some alcoholic now would we?"

"Shut up Adrian. I've got better things to do than to stand around here all day listening to you hit on me." I meant for my voice to be firm and filled with authority but instead it was filled with sorrow, and grief.

As soon as he took in how I looked and sounded he immediately shut up and came to my side wrapping his hand around my waist, pulling me into his embrace.

"What's wrong Rose? Did something happen with Lissa?"

Tears were threatening to spill, but I fought to keep them at bay. I would have loved to tell him everything, and spill my guts out but I just couldn't. I wasn't capable of speech just yet, my voice keeps cracking so I just shook my head instead.

"Did something happen with that mentor of yours?" There we go, bull's-eye. He had no idea how close he hit home, but he was about to because as soon as I heard his name the waterworks started.

"What did he do Rose? Tell me, I need to make him suffer!" I could see that his eyes were filled with anger and even if I was mad at Dimitri, I didn't want Adrian to go find him and make things worse because deep down, I hoped for an alternate ending for our relationship.

No Rose! You mustn't think about getting back with Dimitri, he used you! He was the one that cheated! Don't feel sorry for him, and after all that he's done to you shouldn't want to get back together with him. Don't think about his gorgeous brown eyes and his warm embrace. Sigh, how am I ever going to get over him?

"Acheem." Oh crap, I just forgot about Adrian standing there.

"Oh. Umm, hi."

"Rose, what happened? You're never this upset!"

He was being so gentle with me. Was I really that fragile? I must have looked like hell, with my tear-stained cheeks, blood shots eyes, and runny mascara.

"Please tell me Rose, don't just zone me out!"

Concern was written all over his face and honestly, Adrian really cared for me. He was always there for me, and he wouldn't judge me so we walked to my room where I told him everything, starting from the very beginning.

Once I got everything off my chest I felt better, it's as if a heavy load has been lifted off my shoulders, and to be honest with myself; Adrian was half bad. When he's sober I mean.

"Thanks for listening to me Adrian, it really mean a lot to me!"

"You welcome Little Dhampir. I'll always be here for you, remember that!"

"Of course Adrian." Then I hugged him and kissed him on the cheek.

Wait! Hold up, I Rose Hathaway just hugged Adrian Ivashkov! Wow. I never thought that would ever happen, and looking up at Adrian, I could see that his shock just mirrored mine.

"Well ummm… Okay, I'll see you later Rose." He turned and walked away….

"Wow, that was… Awkward," I muttered under my breath.

I headed back to my room going in the opposite direction of Adrian for a cold shower to hopefully awake me from this living nightmare. Hey, it was worth a shot right?
