AN: Yay I updated! I know I'm shocked too. There was no school today and I had nothing else to do so I wrote this chapter. It took me a long time. It's like 4 pages in Microsoft Word. I'll try to update this weekend. So this is the next chapter.
DISCLAIMER:
ME: Rose do the disclaimer.
ROSE: Why me?
ME: Cause if you don't then I'll make Dimitri break up with you.
ROSE: Fine. XXXDimitrixRozaXXX dosnt own anything. Richelle Mead does.
"Hey guys I'm tired I'm gonna go to bed," Lissa said.
"Ya me too," I said. We all said goodbye and left. Dimitri and me headed to his room. We were so tired we instantly fell asleep.
When I woke up there was no one next to me. I looked around and saw a note on the bed. It read:
Dear Roza,
I had a shift so I had to leave. I'm sorry I couldn't be there when you woke up. I'll see you at the gym for training.
Love,
Comrade
I groaned. I check the clock and see that I have 10 min left. I get up and got dressed. I got a donut from the cafeteria and went running to the gym. I was already 5 min late. When I go in I see Dimitri reading western novel.
"Hey, Comrade," I said.
"Laps," he said without looking up. I groaned and went out to the track. I did 20 laps and went back in.
"So what are we doing today?" I ask.
"Were sparring," he said smiling at me.
"Okay get ready to have your ass kicked," I said He chuckled and we started fighting.
I would block all of his punches and kicks just like he blocked al of mine. I roundhouse kicked him and he stumbled. While he was distracted I swept his feet from under him and he fell on his back. I got on him before he could get up and placed my hand over his heart.
"Dead," I whispered and kissed him. When I finally pulled away I was out of breath.
"I love you," I told him.
"I love you to Roza but you have to get to class now," he told me. I groaned and he chuckled.
I got off him and went to the locker room. I showered and left to class. My first class was Bodyguard Theory and Personal Protection with Guardian Alto. Or as every one calls him behind his back Stan. When I got to class I was late and Stan was furious.
"Miss Hathaway why are you late to class?" he shouted at me.
"Cause it irritates you," I said smiling as I sat down in my seat. The class started snickering.
"Miss Hathaway when will you ever learn to respect your elders?" he asked.
"I respect my elders. Except for you," I answered.
"And why would that be?" Stan asked his face getting red.
"Cause you annoy the shit out of me," I responded while the class started laughing.
"GET OUT OF MY CLASS RIGHT NOW," he shouted at me.
"My pleasure," I said and got up. Just as I was about to leave Dimitri walked into the class.
"Guardian Alto, Headmistress Kirova wants to speak with Rose," he said.
"What I didn't do anything this time!" I exclaimed.
"She was just on her way there," Stan said, ignoring what I just said. I walk out with Dimitri next to me.
"So Comrade, why does headmistress bitch wanna see me," I asked.
"You'll know when we get there," he said smiling. Why the fuck is he smiling?
We got to her office and sat down.
"So why am I here?" I asked Kirova.
"First you are here so we can schedule when you're getting your molnija marks. Second there will be no school for a week so Guardian Belikov is going to visit his family in Russia," she said.
"Okay, but why does this involve me?" I asked confused.
"Because Guardian Belikov has asked to take you with him," she said.
"Really?" I asked, excited that I might get to be with Dimitri for a week.
"Yes, Rose I want my family to meet the person that saved my life," Dimitri said.
"Okay. When do we leave?" I ask.
"Tomorrow," Kirova answered.
"Okay. So when am I going to get my molnija marks?" I asked.
"In an hour. Only Guardians are attending it," she said.
"Okay. Can I leave now?" I ask.
"Yes, you may leave," she said.
I get up and leave her office with Dimitri behind me. We walk in silence all the way to my room.
"So I'm finally gonna meet your family," I tell him once were inside.
"Yes, and they will love you just like I love you," he said kissing me.
"As much as I would love to continue this I have to change," I said breaking away from the kiss.
" Okay I'll be waiting for you out here," he said sitting down on my bed. I grab a red dress and head to the bathroom. The dress was tight and strapless with a bow on the side. I put on some mascara and lip gloss.
I came out of the bathroom and put on red high heels.
"How do I look?" I ask Dimitri who was staring at me with lustful eyes.
"Beautiful," he whispered and walked to me. Just as he was about to kiss me there was a knock on the door. I groaned. I opened the door and shouted "WHAT," but immediately regretted it seeing it was Lissa that was standing in the doorway.
"Oh I'm sorry Lissa, I didn't know it was you," I apologized.
"It's okay Rose," she said chuckling. "Why are you dressed like that?"
"Oh I'm getting my molnija marks in a while. Actually why don't you walk with me there," I said
"Sure," she said.
"Come on Dimitri were leaving," I told Dimitri.
"Coming Roza," he said.
"Oh, so that was you were mad when I opened the door," she said.
"Maybe," I said.
"Let's go," I said.
On the way to the gym, where the ceremony was going to be I told Lissa of the trip to Russia.
"Liss, I'm going to Russia with Dimitri so I can meet his family," I tell her.
"That's great Rose. Tasha invited us to her house. I'll tell her you're not coming, so only Christian and I will go," she tells me.
"Ok. I'll talk to you later," I tell her when we get to the gym.
"Bye Rose," she said
"Bye, Liss," I said headed into the gym with Dimitri who had been silent the whole way to the gym. We walked over to Alberta.
"Hello Rose and Dimitri," she said.
"Hey, Alberta," I said. Dimitri just nodded.
"Go ahead and take a seat. The ceremony is about to start," she said.
"Okay," I said and walk to the first row. I sit down and Dimitri sits next to me.
"Hello the first person to get there mark will be Guardian Belikov," Alberta said.
Dimitri got up and went to sit down on the seat in front of the audience. When the tattooist was done Dimitri got up and walked back to the seat next to me.
And it went on like that in alphabetical order. They skipped my name which was weird. After everyone got their tattoo I was worried that they forgot me. Alberta started to talk again.
"We have skipped Rosemarie Hathaway for a reason. She risked the life of Christian Ozera to save the school. She also found where the strigoi where hiding the captives. She risked her life to save Guardian Belikov. She has killed many strigoi. She has done all of this and is only 17 years old. She is not yet a Guardian but most of us think of her as one. Rose Hathaway come get your tattoo," she said.
I was silently crying. Dimitri passed me a tissue and I got up to get the tattoo. It hurt a lot but not as much as the first time I got one. I had 10 molnija marks and a battle star. So in total I had 12 molnija marks and 1 battle star. The 10 where from the caves. The battle star was for the ones I killed with Christian. Everyone got up and bowed to me. Even Stan. I saw pride in Dimitri's eyes. Everything after that passed in a blur. People shacked my hands. They didn't congratulate me because killing isn't something to be proud of.
After the ceremony Dimitri and I left to my room so we can pack.
"So Dimitri, what should I bring to the arctic wasteland?" I ask.
"Roza, how many times do I have to repeat that Russia is not an arctic wasteland," he said exasperated.
"When I see it with my own eyes," I said.
"Anyway, you should pack a couple of jackets and whatever else. It's not that cold," he said.
"Ya for you cause you grew up there," I said. He didn't answer me and just grabbed my suitcase. I started shoving my cloth into it. After an hour we were done. We went to bed and I instantly fell asleep in Dimitri's arms.
