Chapter 6

Rose POV

"Well, you're going to be my Guardian because Lissa is meant to be getting Eddie. You weren't meant to know that but Aunt Tasha told me yesterday. Anyway, we are also meant to be teachers soon but I know for a fact there isn't any more teachers rooms. I would have to buy a house after Graduation and I was wondering if you, well, wanted to move in with me?" I stared at him incredulously and my staring must have scared the hell out of him because he ended his sentence slightly quieter and rubbed the back of his neck.

Of course I wanted to move in with him! But I needed to sleep and I wanted to be cruel and make him wait for my answer – just like he made me wait for him.

Christian POV

Could I have said that in a more stupid way? Apparently not, as she still stood gaping at me. I felt tears come to my eyes, I didn't want her to see me weak but she had already seen me weaker than this today. A tear slipped down my cheek followed by a couple more. I turned and started walking away from her to hide my embarrassment of getting rejected when she caught my hand.

"Yes," was the only thing she said. I could barely hear her because she whispered it so quietly. As I gazed into her eyes I saw love and desire filling them. She broke into a huge smile and wiped away my tears which were now tears of joy.

"Let's go. We look like idiots randomly sitting in the woods. I need a shower as well after all my ass kicking." I was confused out of my mind because I had never seen this side of the badass Rose Hathaway before. I needed to get it back to normal.

Rose's grin suddenly disappeared and she took on a very nervous look. "Will you stay with me tonight?" Okay... that was unexpected! But then again, this is Rose Hathaway the man-eater. She had probably invited guys back to her room loads of times. I however had only ever been with Lissa and that was why it hurt when I found her with Adrian.

I needed something cocky to come back with so I grabbed her hand and we walked in silence. That silence was comfortable and we could enjoy each other's company. Well, I could enjoy her company. I was just an ordinary Moroi boy that no one liked; whose parents' had turned Strigoi out of choice. I was pretty sure I didn't look amazing either like Ivashkov. God, I even thought that name with venom.

"So will you?" Rose pulled me out of my daydreaming and I noticed she was actually looking nervous like this was something he had never done before. As I stared into her eyes I realised this was something she didn't do as regularly as people thought although she probably did with him.

I suddenly thought of a line that was bound to annoy her, "Sure, my place or yours?" I grinned mischievously as I said this and she had her usual Hathaway sarcastic smile in place.

She played with our intertwined fingers and said, "Where do you think there will be fewer interruptions?" As Rose said this she winked at me and I laughed.

"Come on," I said dragging her back to mine. It was a nice walk back to my place and she had to climb into my room from the window as it was way past curfew.

I cleared off my spare bed and had a shower leaving Rose to feel at home. As I got out of the shower I forgot all about her being in my room and came out with just my boxers on. I soon remembered her as she lay on my bed in black lace underwear with her brow raised at our lack of clothing.

I blushed because the only other girl who had seen my body had been Lissa and that was when we had been together for three months. It had been my first time but I didn't really feel anything and I didn't understand then. I do now. I wasn't truly in love with her and that's why I didn't feel anything.

Rose strutted over to me, wiggling her hips as she came and kissed me long and hard. It was the kind of kiss that no one should see and I felt myself go hard. Oh God, that was embarrassing! Why did I have to get turned on so easily?

Rose POV

Oh God was I nervous! I had never done this before with anyone. But I did however know how Christian liked to do things, thanks to being sucked into Lissa's head. I was going to go with her approach but it needed some Hathaway spangle.

I giggled against his lips as I felt him go hard against my inner thigh. I felt Chrissie's face get hot but I ignored it and grinded against him making us both moan into each other. This. Was. So. Good.

Christian flipped us over so he was hovering on top of me then proceeded to give me butterfly kisses down my stomach. I moaned into his chest and he snickered – why was he teasing me like this? When he leaned back up I caught one of his erect nipples in my mouth and gently sucked on it. Now it was his turn to moan. This was the best time of my life!

His cool fingers trailed around my body gently rubbing circles on my back; I shivered with delight. He reached over and tried to unclasp my bra but sudden realisation hit me: I was in bed with a guy that had just broken up with his cheating girlfriend and that girlfriend happened to be my ex-best friend. How could I have been so stupid? Christian could be using me for all I know, I mean; we had only been together for a couple of hours!

I pushed him off with all my strength and high tailed it into the bathroom – locking the door behind me. I felt bad for Christian but not bad enough to come out any time soon.

Christian POV

I groaned to myself quietly, the bed made a low creak as I got off it. I stood and strode towards the bathroom where Rose had just locked herself in. I lifted my hand to knock but just before my hand made contact with the door I stopped it in mid-air, hesitating.

I wasn't quite sure what to do or say. To be honest I had never really encountered any sort of girl problem – but then again I had only ever had a relationship with Lissa. This was totally something else; we were talking about Rose Hathaway, the love of my life. What were you meant to do with an upset girl? Wait – was she even upset? Or was she mad at me? Had I gone too far? I knew the answer to the last question.

I felt a sense of longing and desperation to just kick the door open and go and comfort her. What the hell am I supposed to do about this, I thought miserably. The weaker side of me overpowered my verdict. I took a deep breath and braced myself expecting the worst.

"Rose?" I called softly. No answer. I frowned and tried again "Rose?"

I gently rested my head against the door, trying to listen in. I could hear a slight whining sound which I made out as faint sobs. Oh my god, this was so not happening! Rose Badass Hathaway was - on the other side of the door that I was leaning against - crying. I felt something break inside me as my heart flew out to her.

And then I did something that was either the best or worst decision of my life. I gulped slightly as I focused my mind on the door lock. The mystical power surged through me and I felt the corners of my mouth pull up into a half smile; I loved playing with fire.

Rose POV

I fell to the floor and leaned my head back against the bath tub. I was in an uncomfortable position and every inch of my body that touched the cold floor was trembling. I felt myself silently breakdown as I wept my heart out.

I tried containing the traitor tears and steady my breathing so that it didn't come out in a quiver. God what was wrong with me? This was so not me, my cheeks turned crimson with shame. Instinctively I raised my hands to my face although there was no one around.

I sighed and let my hands fall by my side and I ground my teeth menacingly. Rose Hathaway does not cry over men! I mentally yelled at my self.

"Rose?" I heard Christians voice call quietly. The blood rushed up to my face again, what was this guy doing to me? However I couldn't resist my arms reach towards the door in response.

"Rose?" he said again. Was I ready for him yet? I think I knew him well enough to know that he would understand if I told him to leave alone. But the thought of hurting him pained me and I began to cry again.

I heard it before I saw or smelt it. I slow sizzling sound hissed through the bathroom and a burning scent followed after it. He just did not do that! A small split appeared at the lock as I watched it slowly melt. My head felt a bit woozy and I was scared I was going to blank out. I slumped back helplessly, my head lowered to the floor. I winced awaiting the excruciating pain which never came.

Strong arms lifted me off the floor and carried me out of the bathroom. I was barely aware of the fact that I was still more than half naked but I didn't feel embarrassed in any way. Christian held me tight as he rested me on his bed, he gently freed his neck from my strangling hands but I only clung on to him tighter. I loved the feel of his warm body against mine, it felt … protective? Ha! Never thought I'd live to see the day when Christian Ozera made me feel protected.

"I am so sorry," he crooned softly, rocking me lightly. I wondered where all my fury towards him 'breaking' into his own bathroom was gone.

"Shh," I whispered back. Wait, now I was reassuring him? I felt a single hot tear trickle down his face and land on my shoulder where he was resting his chin. "Don't spoil the moment."

Everything I had ever wanted or needed was now in my arms. I realized then that if I had him then I could lead any sort of life.

Okay. As I said before – check out Diimoziiana Belikov, she rocks! The whole second half of this was her and she deserves the credit totally!
