_ Chapter 6_

The game stared of with Eddie serving. Since he was also training to become a guardian, he was really good with these types of sports. Fortunately, so was I! So I bent down low and passed it back over the net. Eddie was too busy staring at Mia and the ball landed on the sand.

"Hahaha Eddie! Your gonna have to do better than that to beat Rose Hathaway!" I teased him, "I'm also glad that Mia is on my team."

"Shut up and just serve," Eddie blushed and I smirked.

I served the ball directly toward Dimitri. His quick guardian reflexes bumped it back easily toward Lissa. By now, a few girls had stopped to watch us play. 2 of them were staring at Dimitri and giggling. A few others were staring at Adrian. Jealousy was burning within me. No these were my guys! No one else should be able to hit on them except me! No wait scratch that, my GUY. Not plural, Adrian was just a loser. Yup he was a cute, hot, and adorable loser.

I groaned. This was hopeless! I didn't like Adrian I liked DIMITRI! My brain was obviously malfunctioning…

"Jealous much lil dhampir?" Adrian said barely loud enough for me to hear. He grinned at me.

"You wish," I said rolling my eyes. But inside me my heart didn't quit agree with that statement.

I spent the rest of the game distracted by this conversation. I still didn't understand what had happened there. At the end, Eddie's team had won only by a few points. Being a good sport, I stuck my tongue out at them.

A little while later, we started packing to go back to the motel. The sun was just setting and the sky was a brilliant shade of orange. I loved this time of the day, it symbolized a fairytale ending. When I was little I always wanted to live a fairytale life, but life never gives people what they want. Lissa soon came to tell me that everyone was ready to go.

"Urgh," I whined, "another long car ride!"

Lissa just shook her head, "whatever are we gonna do with you Rose!"

"Feed me warm cookies with cold milk," I replied smiling as I took my seat in the car.

"We were just here," Christian groaned. We had been driving for an hour and were completely lost.

"Yes I know! Dimitri let me handle this!" I said.

"Fine Rose…let's see how smart you are," Dimitri answered, "pop quiz!" he grinned and I laughed sarcastically.

I rolled down my window and found the closest guy. I flipped my hair and flashed my best smile. "Hey can you tell us how to get to the highway?" I asked fluttering my eyelashes for effect.

The guy told us the directions in a heartbeat. I smiled again and thanked him, rolling my window back up.

"See Dimitri I did it! Perfect A+ on my quiz." I joked.

"Gosh Rose you really shouldn't do that!" Adrian scolded me.

"Ummmm…What exactly am I not supposed to do?" I questioned Adrian.

"Torture people like that! That poor boy just about fainted back there!" Everyone laughed at that and Dimitri smiled into the rearview mirror.

"Humph I think you're just jealous…" I replied recalling what he had said to me earlier.

"Yes I am..." he answered automatically not bothering to hide his feeling like I had earlier.

I sighed…since when had life become so complicated!

OMG I think this was my shortest chapter! Sorry! I promise the next one will be longer! Cross my heart and hope to die!
