Chapter 8

Rose

I stood there to shocked to speak. She was a Strigoi and there was nothing I could do. She was stronger than me and faster. She was also blocking my way. I looked at her. She wasn't doing anything. She was just standing there. Watching me with a confused expression.

"Lissa, when did you turn?" I asked her. It was hard for me to day that but I did.

"What are you talking about?" she asked

"When did you turn Strigoi?" I shouted at her

She just stood there. Watching me. She still looked confused. Like she didn't know what she was.

"What are you... wait.. you're talking about my eyes aren't you?" she asked me

"Yes," I responded

"That's what I wanted to talk to you about. I almost killed Mia." She explained

"What? Why would you do that?" I asked

"I didn't mean to do that on purpose. I was annoyed because Mia and Christian were flirting so I walked away. Then I started to get angry and I said that I wish Mia would get hurt or die and now I look Strigoi and I don't know what to do." She cried

"Lissa, it's okay." I said, even though I knew it wasn't. Is that why Mia got hurt.

"Did you see Mia?" I asked

"Yes, she is in the nurses office. She is coughing like crazy and if she dies then I have the feeling that I will be turned Strigoi." she rushed the last words out of her mouth. I noticed that I was still far away from her so I crossed the small little room and hugged her.

"Lissa, why didn't you heal her?" I asked

"I tried to but it didn't work. That's why I cut myself. So I could see if I could still heal people. And I could so I don't know what happened. I tried to heal her two times but it didn't work. Rose, I need your help. I don't know whats going on." she explained

I opened my mouth to say something but closed it. What would I tell her? Everything is going to be alright? That didn't work anymore.

"Listen, you need to visit me everyday okay? So we can figure it out. We will figure it out. I also want you to visit Mia everyday and try to heal her. Oh, and don't let your jealousy over Christian get the best out of you. If you like him then ask him out again." I said

"Okay," she murmured

"We are going to figure this out. I'm sorry that I acted like that. It was rude of me. I was just so scared. Ha, me getting scared, how about that?" I joked

"Yeah," she agreed

"You better leave though before they realize you used compulsion." I added

"I didn't use compulsion," she argued

"Don't try to lie to me. I know better. I have known you for to long." I laughed

"Do you know when they are having the trial?" Lissa asked

"No, I have been wondering the same thing."

"Okay, like you said I better go." Lissa said "Thank you, I needed to tell someone what happened. Thank you for always being my friend. When you get out of here we are going to party." she laughed

She walked out of the cell and up the stairs.

"Lissa," I called "can you tell Adrian that I got pulled out of the dream because I got sucked into your head?"

"Sure." with that she walked out of the door. I was left sitting on the bed. A few seconds later the guards came in and locked the cell. I couldn't stop thinking of Lissa's words.

"When you get out of here we are going to party." That was if I got out of here. If they found out that someone else killed Queen Tatiana. There was a small chance that would happen. I had to think of a way to convince then that I was innocent.

I needed to find a way to convince them that I wasn't in there at that time. That would be hard. Very hard to do. I stared up at the ceiling and thought.

Lissa

I left Rose's cell and started making my way to Adrian's house. When I knocked on the door I was greeted by his mom.

"Is Adrian there?" I asked politely

"Adrian," she called

Adrian walked to the door and said hi.

"Rose wanted me to tell you that she left the dream early because she got pulled into my mind." I explained

"Oh," was all he said. It looked like he was sad

"What's wrong?" I asked him

"Did Dimitri visit Rose today?" He asked

"Uhmm, I don't know. Did he?"

"People are saying that he did and I wanted to know." he replied

"Maybe you should go visit Rose and ask her." I suggested

"Maybe tomorrow." He replied

"Okay, well I have to go." I said

"Okay, bye. Have a good day."

"Thank you." with that I left. He sounded very upset. Did Dimitri visit Rose. I had to see. I made my way to Dimitri.

When I got there Dimitri was about to leave. He saw me and waved.

"Hey, Lissa. Guess what? No more guards." He seemed very happy

"Can I talk to you?" I asked nicely

"Sure, let's go in my room." he opened the door and headed in. He sat down on his chair and he motioned me to sit on the couch. I did and then looked at him.

"So what did you want to talk to me about?" he asked, in a happy mood

"Did you visit Rose today?" I asked him

"Yeah," he said, he kinda hesitated when I asked him that but he kept on a fake smile.

"What did you guys talk about?" I asked suspiciously

"We talked about a lot of things." he said quietly

"Did you kiss her?" I accused, at this time he was looking around the room

"Uhmm, how is your day going?" he tried to change the subject

"You did, didn't you. I want you to tell me the truth." I sternly said

He sighed and looked me in the eyes.

"Yes, Rose and I kissed. I came to tell her that we can't even be friends and she attacked me. I couldn't help myself. I can't believe it." he was ashamed of himself

"You and Rose are perfect for each other. Don't worry she loves you a lot. Don't be ashamed." I comforted him.

He looked at me with loving eyes. He didn't love me in the way he loves Rose but he loved me like I was his sister. I was happy about that.

"I need to go now. I hope you have a good night." I said as I walked out the door.

I was headed for my room when I ran into Christian.

"Sorry, about that." He apologized

"Oh, that's okay." I said

"I was on my way to see Mia. Just to check up on her." He said

That made me very angry.

"Why do you always go to Mia?" I shouted

"What?" he asked

"You always make your way to her. Do you like her or something? I thought your guys were just friends but you seem to be more than that." I shouted his way

"Lissa, calm down." He said

"Whatever, I am out of here." I said as I walked past him

He grabbed my arm and turned me around. Our faces were inches apart. I could feel his breath blow in my face. We were staring right into each others eyes. His eyes held me there. I couldn't move at all. My breath started getting heavy and I started feeling dizzy.

I loved him. He was my soul mate. He was the one I stayed up late every night thinking about. I knew he felt close to the same way.

"Lissa, I..." he trailed off

He started leaning into me and my heart started to beat faster and faster.
