I woke up to find myself pressed up against a asleep Adrian Ivashkov. But I didn't make a move. Instead I turned around in his arm's and buried my face in his chest, breathing in his cologne. Being Rose Hathaway I couldn't resist the opportunity to be cheeky, I started tickling him, right on the ribs, suddenly, so fast that I don't know how it happened, I was the one screaming and laughing as Adrian tickled me!
I don't know how long we carried on for but eventually we stopped. I was lying on top of Adrian. His hands were on the small of my back, while mine were tangled in his hair. We were both breathing heavily. I hastily climbed off him and sat up, crossing my legs beneath me.
"Look Adrian, I don't know what happened last night, but I do want to say thank you for looking after me."
Adrian glanced at me, slightly amused. "Dear little dhampir, it seems you are always in need of my rescuing." I shot him a dirty look aware of what was coming.
"And how might I repay you this time Adrian?" I asked my voice thick with sarcasm.
"Don't be like that, I wasn't going to ask you for anything, but if you want you can attend a state ball with me tonight." I gasped in surprise.
"Me, at a state ball, as what your guardian?" I snickered.
"No, my date, just friends if you want, of course we'll need to find you a ball gown, by tonight." He saw my shocked expression. "But don't worry I'll take care of that, all you have to do is say yes."
I don't know why but my whole body was telling me to say yes, and I complied. "Of course Adrian, I would love to accompany you to the ball, as friends of course." I unleashed one of my maneater smiles.
Adrian grinned. "Great meet me at my room at 4:00 to get changed." And he was gone, with a simple kiss on the forehead and a smug smile. Leaving me on the bed. Wondering what the hell had just happened.
I knew what had happened. I had just agreed to go on a date with Adrian Ivashkov!
Okay that's all for this chapter. The ball will be in the next chapter and be prepared for a few surprises! Please review!!!!! Please!!!!!!
