RPOV
As soon as he left the room, I lost control my body, and my world fell apart. The next few days were some of the hardest days of my life. It was hard to sleep with my little ones keeping me up with their small little kicks. When I was able to sleep, it was plagued with the images of them being together. Every day I missed him more and more. I hadn't seen him in almost two weeks and I could my miracles missed him too because every time I thought about him their little kicks became more repetitive. Lissa and Christian both stayed here with me at the apartment. I had tried to convince them to sleep in my bed, but they immediately refused and insisted that I stay in my bed and that they would sleep on the pull out in the living room.
It was a quiet night; I was starring out at the sunset while Lissa and Christian were making dinner. A knock on the door brought me out of the trance that I had been in for the past two hours or so.
"Rose can you get the door please? Our hands are currently occupied." She yelled from the kitchen before letting out a sharp yelp followed by a squeal and a giggle.
I slowly stood up, using the arms of the chair for support and waddled over to the door. As I opened the door, my eyes landed on the face that I had been dying to see for weeks. He stood there as handsome as ever, aside from the frighteningly dark circle that had taken residence under his eyes.
"Hi Rose." He gave me a small smile while he waited for my response.
"Hi…Dimitri."
"Rose, I was wondering if I might be able to come in for a few moments and talk to you." His eyes silently pleading with me.
"Sure, I guess." I opened the door a little wider and stepped to the side to let him in. He sat down on one side of the couch and I followed suit on the other side, slightly wincing as a muscle in my back tightened as I tried to lower myself to the soft surface of the sofa.
It was quiet for a minute or two before he spoke. "Rose you have no idea how sorry I am. I made the stupidest mistake of my life! But of course, there is no excuse for what I did to you. Roza I just want you to know that I love you more than life itself. You are my world and I want you to be happy. And I understand if you don't want to be with me anymore, I really do. I also know that you don't trust me at all and I know I don't deserve your trust, but Roza I am begging you to give me another chance! Please! I will do anything to make it up to you." In the middle of his speech, he found his way over to my side of the couch and proceeded to get down on his knees, begging for a second chance with me.
I really didn't know what to say. When I finally found my voice, I spoke, "I can't trust you anymore Dimitri. You broke my heart into so many pieces that I don't think it will ever heal. It feels like my chest has been ripped open and someone took my very soul from me. Now I'm left as an empty shell struggling to find the strength to go on for the sake of our children! And as much as I want to say that I don't want you back in my life, I can't. My heart has been yours since the moment my eyes met yours." As soon as I finished, his eyes lit up with joy. So I quickly added, "I'm not saying that I'll take you back, I'm simply saying that I will try and give you a second chance. But this is your last chance Dimitri. There can't be anymore lies, ever. It's going to take a while for you to earn back my trust, I'm not just going to give it to you, I can't just give it to you."
"I understand completely Roza! Thank you so much. I won't mess this up; I will do whatever it takes to get you to trust me again." He opened his arms as if asking for permission to hug me, I hesitantly wrapped my arms around him and instantly relaxed at the feeling of safety I get from being in his arms. We stayed like that for a little while and soon I started to doze off.
I was awoken with a start when Lissa called and said that dinner was ready. I sat up and realized that I had fallen asleep on Dimitri. "I'm sorry; I didn't mean to fall asleep on you." I turned away and started to get up to go to the dining room table. Almost instantly, I felt a wave of vertigo hit me and I started to sway. I felt Dimitri put his arm around me so that I wouldn't fall over.
"Are you ok Roza?" His voice was thick with concern.
"Yeah, I'm fine; I just got a little dizzy for a few seconds." I gave him a reassuring smile and he unwillingly dropped the issue. We made our way over to the table and all four of us sat down to eat. Lissa looked really happy that I wasn't so depressed anymore. Christian on the other hand looked like he still wanted to kill Dimitri.
Flashback Two Weeks Ago
Lissa and Christian were sitting in the chairs beside my bed and I had just finished telling them what happened with Dimitri.
"I'm going to kill him!" I instantly knew that Christian was serious when he stood up and started storming towards the door.
"No Christian please! I just don't want to deal with it right now. And as much as I want to see him in pain for hurting me, this isn't right. Please just come back over here and sit down." He deliberated and finally gave in when he looked into my eyes and saw how serious I was.
"Fine!" He sulked back over to his chair and sat down with a huff.
End Flashback
After that day at the hospital, every time I heard him and Lissa talking about it, Christian always mentioned how he still wanted kill Dimitri for cheating on me. It would always bring a small smile to my face but then I would start to think about Dimitri again and the smile on my face would fade just as quickly as it had come.
Dinner continued uneventfully and after he helped clean up, Dimitri started walking towards the door.
"Where are you going Dimitri?" I asked softly.
He turned towards me, "Well I was going to go home, I don't want to overstay my welcome and I don't want to push you too far today." He stared down at his feet as he finished.
"Oh, you can go if you want, but I was kind of wondering, if maybe, you would stay with me tonight? If you want that is." I blushed as I asked the question and almost immediately regretted asking him.
"I would love to stay Roza, but if you want me to leave at anytime, just let me know ok?" I simply nodded in response and gave him a small smile.
I made my way back to the bedroom and tried to get ready for bed. After three failed attempts, I called Lissa into the room and asked her to help me.
She helped me get my pajama pants on and as she was helping me with my shirt, she said what I had been waiting all night to hear from her. "You know I love you Rose and I always will, no matter what choices you make in life. However, are you sure you are making the right decision by giving Dimitri a second chance? I only want you to be happy and if this truly is the right decision for you, then I will support you 100%, but do you not remember what he did to you?" After she helped me with my shirt, she helped me sit on the bed and we continued to talk.
I grabbed both of her hands, "I know what he did to me Lissa, and I will forever be scared into my memories. But I can't live without him, and my children need their father. I can't raise three kids on my own Lissa. When he isn't here, I feel empty, like there is no point to life. Earlier, when I fell asleep in his arms, that was the first time in two weeks that I was able to sleep without being plagued with constant nightmares. Lissa…I need him." I had started to cry and Lissa just pulled me into her arms and hugged me.
"Ok Rose, if this is what it takes to make you happy, then I'm behind you completely. But if he screws up in any way, I will let Christian make fire wood out of him."
I squeezed as hard as I could mange without hurting her or me, "Thank you so much Lissa. Now go get some sleep, you've taken care of me enough for one night, and can you please send Dimitri in?" She nodded her head, kissed my cheek and told me good night. I wiggled my way off the bed, and went to finish getting ready for bed. I had just gotten comfortable under the covers when I heard a small knock on the door and in walked Dimitri.
I smiled at him and patted the spot next to me on the bed.
"Ok, just let me change first." He gave me a huge smile before he walked to his dresser, grabbed a set of lounge pants, and went to the bathroom to change. He came back a few minutes later wearing no shirt and I couldn't help but stare. He walked over to his side of the bed and looked at me for approval. I nodded and he climbed into bed and got under the covers with me. I tried to roll over on my side and curl into his chest, but I soon realized that I was too big, so I settled for lying on my back and using his arm as a pillow. I quickly fell asleep and to my surprise, I only woke up twice that night, and that was just because I had to pee.
The next morning I woke up to the smell of breakfast cooking and the smell of Dimitri on the sheets. The memories of what happened last night flooded back to me and I couldn't help but smile. I got out of bed and walked to the kitchen where I found Dimitri and Lissa cooking something that smelled amazing. Christian was still passed out on the pull out as he usually was around this time. I stood in the doorway to the kitchen just watching them cook and get along, I was so glad Lissa was giving him a chance. As if he could feel my eyes on him, Dimitri turned around and smiled.
"Good morning Roza, Lissa and I are making French toast with eggs and bacon. Are you hungry?" At the thought of getting food, my little ones fluttered around in my stomach and it made me laugh.
"Well I know they are and I could definitely eat something." He laughed and told me to go sit down and that he would bring my food to me. I left the kitchen and he came and brought me a big plate full of food. He set the plate down and kissed my head before walking back into the kitchen.
After breakfast, Dimitri and I went back into our room and just relaxed.
There were still so many things that were going on in my head and so many questions that I had yet to ask him. I turned and looked up at him face, "Dimitri?"
"Yes love?" He asked looking down into my eyes.
"Whatever happened between you and that Lexie chick after I kicked you out at the hospital?" As much as I hated to say her name and hated to even bring the topic up, I had to know what happened.
"Well after I left the hospital, I came back here and I started packing my clothes. I had almost finished when she called me. I answered the phone knowing that everything with her had to end. After saying hello, she got really excited, saying how she missed me and how she couldn't wait to see me again. I finally just couldn't take it anymore, I yelled at her to shut up and to stay out of my life. I told her that what we did was a mistake and how it was never going to happen again and how I never wanted to see her again. She started crying, finally she said that she would leave me alone, and then hung up the phone. I immediately called the phone company and asked them to block her number from my phone." When he finished telling me everything, he looked down at me with a pleading look in his eyes. "I can't even begin to tell you how sorry I am Roza. I was so stupid and because of that, I hurt you in one of the worst ways possible. I deserve everything that I got and so much more and it will haunt me for the rest of my life. If there is anything, anything at all that I can do to make it up to you, just say the words and it's done." The look on his face was one that someone might have if there were at a funeral and it made me sad to see him that way, but I knew that he deserved it.
"Well I am hungry; could you maybe get me something to eat?" I gave him a smile in hopes of cheering him up, which it did. He laughed and shook his head at me.
"And what did you have in mind my love?"
"Well I kind of want Mexican food. Is there a Taco Bell anywhere around here?"
"Yeah, there is actually one down the street. What would you like from there?"
"I would love a chicken quesadilla, three soft tacos with no lettuce, an order of nachos with no tomatoes, and two orders of chips and cheese." I finished my order and started laughing at the look on his face.
He regained his composure and stood up, "Your wish is my command!" He bowed, making me laugh, grabbed his keys and his phone, and left with the promise that he would be back in 10 minutes.
