I could hear a faint buzzing. It seemed to be getting louder and louder. Slowly I opened my eyes, only to be blinded by a bright white light. Am I in heaven? There was a sharp gasp besides me. I had managed to make out the outline of a light above me. Turning my head I felt tears in my eyes as I saw Dimitri. Hadn't I saved him? Our eyes met for a brief moment before I heard the sound of foot steps running around the room.

"She's awake!" their voice seemed familiar.

Lissa. She was most defiantly alive; which meant I had to be too. Great, this means by big speech about sacrifice was a waste. Maybe I could use it for my graduation speech! There was a sharp pain in my ribs, I looked down. I was attached to a heart monitor in the academy's hospital. The familiar face of Dr Olendzki moved above me, before I feel into a deep sleep.

I woke up feeling stronger then I had been. Lifting my hand I tapped Dr Olendzki on the shoulder.

"Can I go now?" I smiled, eagerly.

"Not just yet Rose," she joked, "I need to make you a membership."

They did a few tests before letting me go. I made my way towards the great hall. Slowly I walked in, heads turned- their eyes wide in amazement. Ignoring them I made my way towards the doughnuts. These were not just doughnuts; these were warm, soft doughnuts. With rich chocolate icing, decorated with crunchy hundreds & thousands. These are Rose Hathaway slowly doughnuts! I sat down next to Lissa.

"Hey, what have I missed?" I asked casually.

They starred in disbelief before bombarding me with questions and hugs.

"All take two big steps back." I glared at them.

"That's better!" I smiled, "I'm not a morning person."

"But Rose, It's the middle of the afternoon." Mia pointed out.

"But I have just woken up." I looked at my watch 2:50 pm.

"Looks like I have a good excuse for missing training," I laughed, "Sorry, I was unconscious in a hospital room!"

"Trust Rose to make a joke out of this!" Replied Lissa.

"Come on I've got Stan next, I wouldn't want to be late." I said sarcastically.

"Let's go." Said Eddie.

We made our way to Stan's class, still being five minutes late.

"Mr Castile go sit down." Stan told him, before moving his attention to me.

"Why are you late?" he spat in my face.

"Sorry, I was unconscious in a hospital room!" I replied, truth Hathaway style.

He took a deep breath before telling me to go to Kirova's office.

Kirova was sitting by her desk looking at some paper work.

"Hello, Rosemarie. Before you tell me why you're here, I think you should know that I know about you and Dimitri,"

I gasped.

"It was obvious, especially after you risked your life to save him. I give you my support, meaning you can be open about your relationship."

Did that just happen? I rushed off to find Dimitri. He was guarding the front gate. I suddenly found my safe in a de jà vu moment.

"This changes everything, doesn't it?" I smiled.

"Yes it does." His eyes filled with happiness and lust.
