Never let the fear of striking out, keep you from playing the game.
Rpov.
I was hot, so incredibly hot. What the hell? Struggling to push the sleep way from me, I opened my eyes to see why it was smothering me with heat. What I found was NOT what I was expecting. Wrapped around me like I was a life preserver was a very tall, and mostly naked Russian. Not that I was complaining at all, I mean for the last month and a half I have dreamt of waking up in his arms.
Smiling widely I brushed the dark hair from in front of his eyes and gently ran my hands through it. It felt as soft as it looked. This felt so….so right, like I was meant to wake up with him in bed with me. I never wanted to leave this bed. Though sadly, my blatted said differently. I had to pee! Looking over at the clock next to my bed I saw it was 3:30 that means that I could sleep for a while yet.
Moving as gently as I could, I moved Dimitri's arm from around me and sat up in bed and moved to the side. When I stood up I noticed that only my heels had been taken off. Grabbing a pair of shirts and a tank top from the chair next to my desk I walked to the bathroom. After doing my business I changed into my pjs and washed the makeup from my face and took put my pig tails.
Moving to the end of my bed I turned the fan I had there on low and set it to rotate than moved back to bed, where I laid down and snuggled back into my human heater. Running my fingers though his hair again, I thought back to what had happened the night before. I remembered everything from the dance, from my shocking realization that I was in love with 2 men, to my slide show of Adrian's pictures.
After Dimitri had taken me home and got me in bed, I had begged him not to leave. All my friends were still at the dance and I didn't want to be alone. He said he would stay, but had sat on the couch on the other side of the room. How had he ended up in bed with me, and where was his shirt? Shaking my head I decided that I would ask him in the morning and closed my eyes and drifted off to sleep.
BANG BANG BANG! Oh no! They are coming! They found me, how did they find me? I had to run, to get away from here. He was going to take me back there, to that place. That place where they hurt me. "NO!" my little voice screamed as the door bust open. In the doorway stood the man I was most afraid of.
Darkly tanned skin, dark suit with a bright yellow scarf and hoop earrings in his ear, Abe Mazur stood with his hands on his hips. "Ki, we have been looking for you. Come, let's go." He told me, his voice laced thickly with the land of his birth.
"No! No I won't go!" I screamed shaking my head at him as I tried to curl into a ball in the corner where I hid.
"Roza!" someone was shaking me, pulling me from my dream, "Roza, wake up please." That voice, I knew that voice, I would know it anywhere. It was Dimitri. "Roza, please wake up." He said again, this time I felt lips on me, granted it was on my forehead, and not really where I wanted them but hey, I'll take what I can get.
"Dimitri?" I ask opening my eyes to see his worried face above mine. Breathing out a sigh of relief he leaned back and smiled at me. Sitting up I looked at him, he looked like something had woken him up, me I am guessing. When I looked at the clock I saw that it was now nearly 6 am. How had I slept for 3 hours?
"Your awake, you were screaming, and thrashing around. Are you ok?" he ask me, his accent thicker than normal making it hard to understand him. Screaming and thrashing? Why…than I remembered my dream. Abe Mazur. Who was he? Nodding my head to Dimitri I got up and walked to my desk and grabbed my laptop before sitting back next to him on the bed.
When I turned my computer on, the first thing that popped open was the school email program, noticing I had an email I was tempted to read it, but shook my head and closed it down than opened up Google Chrome and opened Google. When it came up I typed in ABE MAZUR into the search bar. When picture came up I took a deep breath. "That's him. But why did I say I was Rose Mazur?" I ask myself in a whisper as I stared at the picture.
Closing my eyes, I took a deep breath and opened up the Wikipedia page that bore his name and started reading, feeling Dimitri watching me as I did. After reading it though twice I shook my head and closed the laptop and lay back on my pillow, and looked at the man sitting next to me. He really was a god; at least he looked like one. "You didn't have to stay, I know I begged you to but you could have left after I fell asleep." I told him with a shy smile. Wait, shy? When have I EVER been shy? Oh that's right, around him I get that way.
"I was going to leave, but you started calling me in your sleep. I couldn't leave, and your couch is not the most comfortable one around. I hope you don't mind me sharing your bed." Was his reply, his face turning red as he spoke. When I shook my head he smiled and laid back down when I patted the pillow next to me.
"No, it was nice having you here, I hate being alone in this big house. That's why Liss or Mase always stays. But they probobly went home. Oh well." Slowly I turned to look at him, leaning up on my elbow as I did. "Let me ask you something. Where is your shirt? Not that I am complaining but still." I ask, smirking as I tentivily reached out and touched his chest, getting braver as I spoke.
"In the dryer. When I got you some water last night, you tried standing up to take the cup to the sink and tripped over Lissa's school bag and the water went all over Me." oh that explains it. I would have to thank Liss for leaving her bag in the middle of the floor. "You were more than helpful trying to rid me of it though." He added chuckling. I smiled and bit my lip.
"I bet I was. You always take such good care of me when I am drunk, this is twice now. You don't have to you known." Moving closer to him I reached out and brushed his hair from his face again, leaning down as I did. "There has to be a way I can pay you back." I whispered, than after taking one last deep breath, I pressed my lips to his. And let me tell you, it was like I had died and gone to heaven.
The moment my lips touched his, everything around me disappeared and it was only he and I. my insides turned to mush and my mind turned blank. For a moment it seemed as if he was shocked at what was happening, but then again so was I, but then he started kissing me back. His arms wrapped around me, pulling me close to him as his hand ran up my back and into my hair, pulling my head back a little as he did. Tearing his lips from mine he moved down from my lips to my neck and kissed and gently bit every spot he could.
When I let out a small moan, I felt rather than saw his smirk. Without me telling them to, my hands found his hair and pulled his lips back to mine. As soon as his lips crashed back into mine I was rolled over onto my back and he was kissing me for all he was worth, like I was water after a long walk in the desert, like I was his life line. He kissed me like everywoman wants to be kissed.
When he pulled away to breath he looked at me, "god Roza, you are so beautiful, I could look at you all day and never get tired." He breathed his breath ragged and short. His hands, they never seemed to stop moving. Frist they were on my arms, than running down my side, now they were planted firmly on my hips, while mine were around him. One on his back, rubbing and feeling the contours of his strong back, and one lost in his hair.
Dimitri's lips had just touched mine again, sweet and slow this time rather than fast and demanding, when the door downstairs slammed open. "Rosemarie? Where are you I am home" my mother called from the living room. Damn it woman! Right now if all freaking times she decides to come home. Have I mentioned before that I can't stand her?
Pulling away from me, Dimitri looked at him and smirked, than kissed my head and sat up. At that moment my bedroom door was pushed open and Janine Hathaway stood there, in all her 5'2 glory. "Hello mother. Can I help you?" I ask sitting up to look at her. Her eyes were darting all over the room, taking everything in. when they came to a stop, they were on Dimitri.
"Is this what you do when I leave you home? Whore yourself to any man who walks by you?" she snapped, ignoring my question. Dimitri was about to say something to her, when I reached over and put my hand on his shoulder and shook my head. "Don't D, she isn't worth it. Why don't you go see if everyone got home, and ill text you later?" I told him and him nodded, leaning over and kissing me gently before getting up and walking out of the room.
Sighing I laid back on my bed, and reached for my phone, than seeing my laptop I turned to my mother "who is Abe Mazur?" I ask her and watched all the color drain from her face. "Janine who is he?" I demanded, when she didn't answer me.
"No one you need to worry about." She told me before walking out of the room. I let out a little scream and threw the first thing I grabbed at the wall which happened to be a little porcelain doll that I'd had all my life and watched it shatter all over. Good, I had always hated that thing it creped me out.
Running my hand though my hair I threw myself on the bed and reached for my phone. When I saw the email from Penn I bit my lip, even though I loved every second of what happened with Dimitri I still felt guilty about it. When I opened the email and read it, I felt like crying. He loved me, and he was admitting it. But he was in the same boat I was. Loving me and falling for his friend. Taking a deep breath I sat up and typed my reply.
My Dearest Peen,
Frist I want to say, you will never lose me. Ever. I think of you as one of my best friends. I can talk to you about things that I can't tell anyone else about, not even Li…..my life long best friend.
And just so you know, you're not the only one who feels the way you do. I am in love with you too. I think I have been heading that way since we first started talking. But I too have a friend that I am falling for, sometimes literally. Lol. (When he and I first met every time I saw him I wound end up bumping into him and falling on my ass.)
And this morning….this morning I kissed him. Ok it was more than a kiss, it was like…..love and passion and bacon wrapped doughnuts all wrapped together. It was like I was born to kiss him and I never wanted to stop. Than my mother came home.
Ya, I know what a perfect time for freaking mother of the year to show up right? And get this! She accused me of whoring myself around to everyone! I didn't know whither I wanted to wanted to scream at her for acting like I was the one in the wrong, or cry because she made me out to be a slut in from of him.
And wow, I really am a bitch. Telling you all about my morning with another man after you told me you loved me. I am just going to stop talking about that now and move on to something more important.
I had another one of those dreams again. This time the guy that was looking for me found me. I know what his name is now. What I don't know is what the hell they mean. Are these dreams trying to tell me something or just to freak me out? It's getting to the point where I am scared to go to sleep. I don't know what to do.
Hoping for the best,
Kit.
Pressing send on the email I closed my eyes for a moment before shaking my head and getting up to take a shower. I needed a REALLY cold one right about now.
AN: so no one got the quotes on either Chapter 9, or chapter 10 so I will tell you who they were. 9 was from Gone with the Wind, and 10 was Gene Wilder from Willy Wonka and the chocolate factory. Let's hope that the quote at the top of this one is more well known.
I have gotten some good ideas for gifts for everyone, but I still need more. Keep them coming lol and also I need ideas for what the gang can do for the talent show. Tell me what you think.
Lastly I was just wondering, is something getting boring with the story? I have been getting less reviews per chapter, and granted that could be because they are getting uploaded at night. But either way, if it is getting boring tell me and I will do something to liven it up.
As always R&R and send in ideas, they are always welcome.
