Its Been A While

Chapter five

Rose

And then there were six.

The kids are asleep, all of them. Well, they might not be asleep. They could easily be up in their rooms talking or some shit like that, but for the most part. They're in bed and not in the living room watching scary movies like the rest of us.

It was six of us, me, Lissa, Christian, Adrian, Dimitri and Eddie.

Mia had gone to sleep with Shane, saying something about wanting to wakeup and being able to take Shane to some learning thing. I don't know.

Since she had him, she's been all motherly and stuff.

It's annoying.

I couldn't really say anything though, when I had Andy and Andre and that bitch Adrian wasn't here, that's how I was too.

Abe always jokes on how he didn't know which one of us he'd rather the kids be like. He said if they were like Adrian they'd be crazy, but if they were like me they'd be psychotic.

My mom voted Adrian.

My dad voted split personalities.

I flicked them both off.

I mean, look at my parents and then look at me?

They honestly couldn't talk about what personality was best for their grandkids.

Especially seeing at they were both psychotic, crazy fucks.

I guess I got a little bit of both of them.

From outside my thoughts I heard Adrian and Christian both squeal like little girls when a face of the antagonist popped up on the television and laughed out loud.

Their screams where delicious.

Psychotic remember?

"Excuse me, do you have any right to laugh at us?" Adrian turned to me and the whole room went quiet other than for the actors of the movie.

I rolled my eyes and stretched out on the couch I was sitting on, "Stop being a little bitch and I wont have to."

"That wasn't my question."

Good grief, what was his problem?

"Oops."

"Rose…"

"Yes Mr. Ivashkov?"

He growled and jumped out of his seat, making Christian, the little wimp he is, jump about five feet into the air and landed in Lissa's lap.

She petted his hair.

Petted his over-gelled, greasy looking hair.

Disgusting.

"Ya' know what Rose? Fuck this, I'm done."

I kept starring at him. Behind him Dimitri tensed like he was ready to jump up and tear Adrian's head off.

"Calm down." I murmured to Belikov, grabbing his hand. It calmed his nerves instantly; even if we weren't together like that I could still calm him down.

And by the look on Adrian's face, he didn't like that one bit.

"Disgusting, you two are disgusting. Especially you," He glared at Dimitri, "Does she know the truth? Does she?"

Dimitri rose an eyebrow, "Excuse me?"

Adrian turned to me.

"Do you know that your precious little Russian fuck buddy over here has a wife and two kids? Named Iris, Isabella and Ivan-or something like that. Did you little dhampir? Oh wait, knowing you. You probably don't care. And you Russian, how does it feel to have four kids? Two of them beautiful like Rose and two others disgraced with a bastard of a father."

That was it, Dimitri flipped.

He flew out of the seat and was on Adrian within a second.

But then Adrian did something… something I'd never seen before. And for me, that meant a lot.

As Adrian's hands flew up to defend him they began glowing. Brighter and brighter, it reminded me of when someone changes a Strigoi back to a human. It was light in its purest form, strong and swift.

The beams of light flew from Adrian's hands to Dimitri's chest with a loud thump, like someone was hitting a hollow wall.

And then Dimitri fell down in the blink of an eye; this took all of a second.

With a shock I realized that Dimitri wasn't moving.

Or breathing.

And his eyes were blank.

Lissa yelled and then the whole world went black like how it used to with my shadow kissed skills, but this time it was different.

I passed out.

And Dimtri was dead.

This is short.

What do you guys want for Christmas?
