You guys don't like the idea of TASHA TORTURE?

I think it's funny that Dimitri is blowing her off (:

But if you want I will break them up within the next two chapters (:

Today I was going to take Rose to meet everyone. Now that she knew about everything I didn't have to worry about Adrian saying something he wasn't supposed to and I knew Rose could kick his ass if he tried anything with her – she kicked my ass all the time in our combat classes, but I didn't mind.

"My Da- John always put me into like self defence classes, and I always trained with him, but I just thought it was cause' he was a health freak. He was a really good dad."

We talked a lot yesterday about her, me, and anything that she wanted to know really. She was having a shower, getting ready for today, so while I was waiting I decided to send a text to Eddie.

Eddie,

Get everybody together in our theatre room.

I have somebody I want you guys to meet.

Just as I hit send I heard Rose singing over the sound of the water and I smiled. This was going to be a very interesting day.

"Rose, this is Adrian, Eddie, Christian, Tasha, Mia and you already know Lissa." She ran up to Lissa and hugged her.

"So, this is who you've been keeping to yourself. Not fair Dimitri, you've been depriving us of natures beauty" Adrian slurred the words and it was obvious he was already drinking. He didn't handle the effects of spirit the way Lissa seemed to and I guess being an alcoholic was his only way to cope. He walked over to Rose and kissed her hand, ugh, he was a disgusting mole. "Enchante" Rose quickly pulled her hand away and looked at me in desperation. HA! I thought.

"It's nice meeting you all" she murmured coming to stand in between me and Lissa. Lissa laughed out loud and my guess was that Rose thought something. We all sat down and the debates about which movie we watch began. Our group was the best of friends, but tell us to pick a movie and it was every-man-for-himself. "Why don't we play a game?" Amazing, two minutes with my crazy friends and she had already managed to shut them up and get on their good side.

"She's a genius" Eddie, my best friend said.

"I say we play truth or dare." Tasha had and evil glint in her eyes as she said this but when she turned to face me she smile sweetly. We all sat down in a circle, I was next to Tasha and Rose and Adrian somehow managed to squeeze his way in between Rose and Lissa, much to her disgust. "I'll go first!" she announced proudly. "Rose, truth or dare?" I sighed. Tasha just couldn't leave her alone, even after I told her everything. I would have to speak to her later.

"Oh, uhm, truth I guess?" it came out as a question. Tasha didn't even discuss it with the others like she was supposed to.

"Where have you been the past sixteen years? I mean, if your here now something must have happened... tell us"

"I'd rather not, its, it's a..."

"A touchy and personal subject" I finished for her and she thanked me with her eyes.

"NAH-AH" Adrian yelled, taking a swig of whiskey. How he managed to keep his alcohol on campus I will never know. "C'mon Rosie! Can't just keep your secrets between you and Dimitri, it's not fair. We all want to know who you are Rosie." He wrapped an arm around her shoulder and I saw anger flash through her eyes and before ANY of us knew what was happening, she had grabbed hold of his arm, spun him around and pushed him onto the floor so he was lying on his stomach, Rose straddling his waist and twisting his arm up behind him. It looked painful.

"I said no and do not ever call me Rosie again, my name is Rose!" She didn't move and he was nearly in tears, we were all trying to get her off him until Lissa pushed her way through and told us to all sit back down. She reached out only slightly touching her arm and Rose didn't even try to shake her off like she did to Eddie and me.

"Rose, let go. He won't call you Rosie again, it's ok now." Rose joined the circle again and a look pain washed over her face. She was sitting in the circle, but away from everyone, even Lissa and me. Well, I thought to myself, today has been interesting, just not in the way I had hoped. Lissa picked up the game where we had left off like nothing happened and everybody followed her lead, but I sat there watching Rose, only participating if I was chosen. Tasha tried to gain my attention countless times, but I didn't pay her any attention. Rose was sitting there, literally looking broken, and it was my fault. They were all engrossed in eddies dare – he had to perform a lap dance for Mia, and let me tell you he could not dance – so I decided to scoot over to Rose and talk with her, maybe slip outside away from everyone. She looked at me with tears in her eyes. I grabbed her hand and pulled her up with me.

"Come on" I pulled her out of the room without anyone else seeing, thankfully. I didn't take her to far away, just outside the dhampir commons and sat with her on a bench outside, obscured by some trees.

"I didn't mean it, I swear. I just, I just got angry. I said no and they used to call me Rosie. They are the only ones that ever, ever get to call me Rosie." I knew she was talking about her previous friends and family, and I understood. I hated when Tasha called me Dimka, it's what my family used to call me.

"No one's going to judge you" I told her. "I'm sorry; I should have told them not to ask any questions like that, I'm sorry I didn't. And I'm going to talk to Tasha – she's just frustrated because I've been blowing her off all week. She didn't know what she was asking, I swear.
"They are going to hate me." She looked so defeated. Of course they wouldn't hate her. I would explain everything to them and they would understand. I'm sure they already loved her simply because she was my... friend? Yes, unfortunately she was just my friend.

Dammit I had to stop thinking like that, I was with Tasha, and she made me happy.

"No" I whispered, "They are going to love you."

So what do you guys think? How badass is Rose? ;)

Nah jokes, but seriously how did you guys think this chapter went?

Love georgiie 3
