When they finally woke up later in the afternoon they made love again. Adrian told her she was the best thing that ever happened to him and last night was the best night in his entire life. He told her he was there to love her. Rose told him that she felt exactly the same way.
The next few days they did absolutely nothing. They stayed home and really got to know each other. Christian would call every day to say hi and asked if it would be ok if he came to see them in a week. Rose told him they would love for him to come to Portland. When she hung up with Christian, Adrian asked her why she was looking sad, she bit her lip then told him that she has feelings for Christian as well and didn't know what to do about it. Adrian took her hand and told her it was ok if she loved both of them, he and Christian already talked about it and they were ok with you loving both of us. Rose asked when they talked and he told her that they had become real close when Lissa started being a bitch and we started talking about the feelings we had for you and decided it wasn't a problem sharing your love, we love you that much. Rose had tears running down her cheek; she said she thought both of you would hate her if she had to choose one of you. Adrian took her face in his hands and told her it would never come to that, there was plenty of love to share among the three of us.
During the week Adrian would go to the studio and help Rose, he was really good with numbers so he became her bookkeeper. He also continued to take lessons, he wanted more now than ever to be able to protect himself and Rose if it ever came to that.
The week flew by and Christian was knocking on their door around noontime on Saturday afternoon. Rose opened the door and pulled Christian into a hug. When they walked into the living room, Adrian got up and gave Christian a bro hug. Rose grabbed Christian's bags and told him she would show him where he'll be sleeping. Rose put him in the room next to Adrian. While Christian was looking around the room, Rose started to worry again how this relationship was going to work. While she was deep in her thoughts, she didn't hear Adrian enter the room. He put his arms around her waist and told her to stop worrying that everything was going to be great.
After Christian was settled, they all went out to grab a bite to eat. They went to Rose's favorite place. They ate and drank wine while just getting caught up with everything that has been going on. Christian did ask Rose if it would be ok if Tasha came and visited with them, Rose was hesitant but Christian assured her that Tasha knew the story and thought Dimitri was different and wants nothing to do with him since he hurt you and me as well. Rose said that she was welcome to come as long as what he was telling her was true, Rose did finally fess up that she didn't like Tasha back at the academy because she felt threatened by her since she knew she had feelings for Dimitri as well. Both Christian and Adrian chuckled; they remember all the dirty looks she shot Tasha when she thought no one was looking. Rose just shrugged her shoulders and said they both better get used to it cuz if she catches anyone looking at either of them, there will be hell to pay.
For the next few nights everyone slept in their own rooms, but on the third night Adrian suggested that Christian sleep with Rose and that made her heart putter a little, Adrian winked at her and he continued to clean the dinner plates. It was decided that on nights that Christian cooked, Adrian would clean up the dishes and when Adrian cooked, Christian would clean. Rose was one lucky girl she thought to herself, she had two guys who really knew how to cook and clean.
Around 10pm, Adrian said he was going to turn in; he gave Rose a kiss goodnight and a fist punch to Christian.
Rose and Christian followed suite shortly after Adrian. When they got to Rose's room, Rose put on a pair of boxers and tank top, Christian stripped down to his boxers. They climbed into bed. They talked for a little while and shared some heavy making out, but that is all they did. Christian whispered in Rose's ear and told her he really wants to make love to her but tonight isn't the night, he just wants to lay here with the woman he loves. They kissed for a little longer then they fell asleep in each other's arm.
They woke in the morning to the smell of French toast and Rose's tummy growled, Christian had to chuckle since some things have not changed when it came to food and Rose. Rose playfully glared at him as they were getting out of bed. They put some clothes on and headed down stairs to eat.
Over breakfast Christian asked Rose if it would be possible to starting Moroi to fight at her studio. He wanted to teach others that wanted to learn to protect himself. He said Tasha was doing it in Turkey and she had a lot of clients and she had Dhampires that were helping as well. Rose told Christian that it sounded like a great idea and she would figure something out, she did tell him that it couldn't be done at the studio since it was all humans there but she would find a place and make it happen since she knew there were a lot of Moroi and Dhampires living in Portland and once the word was out that there was a place to train, she was sure they would come and learn.
When breakfast was done, they all headed to the studio. After parking the car, Adrian noticed a for sale sign up next to her place. Adrian wrote down the number for the real estate agent and said he would give them a call later and set up an appointment to look at the place. Rose hugged Adrian and kissed him and told him he was the best. Christian pouted a little but Rose kissed him too and said he was awesome as well. They all smiled at each other and entered the studio. Sam came right over to Rose and said two of the new people called out again and they were scheduled for a full day. Rose told Sam to calm down, she introduced Christian and said he and Adrian would help out with the kids lessons since both have been training on their own and she and Sam would take care of the other classes. Adrian said he would call the realtor and ask for an evening showing. While Adrian was getting settled in, Rose showed Christian around and then she headed for her office to make a few calls.
She called the ones that called out and told them that if they didn't show up tomorrow not to bother showing up again, if they couldn't handle a serious job then they weren't needed, she wanted a hard working team that was committed to making a healthier world.
When she got off the phone she went and started her morning stretches to get ready for the day. During the day, when she could, she would watch Adrian and Christian teach the kids lessons and she was really impressed at how well they held the attention of the kids. She would also see them talking to each other when their lessons were over and every time she tried to get closer to hear what they were saying it would be time for her to give another lesson.
