The look that was in Dimitri's eyes brought me back to the night he flew into a room where me and Jesse Zecklos were in, making out. The look of fury in his eyes that night was the same look that was in them now. I turned my head breaking away from his gaze and saw a look of surprise and aggravation in Christian's eyes. I shook my head and walked back over to Ryan who was looking at me with a curious expression.

My savior came in the form of Anne though, as she brought everyone's attention to her and began pairing people up. She turned to Ryan and me and told us that our routine was amazing and that she thought we should break it down for the rest of the class to be able to follow. Ryan walked up to stand beside me and brushed the back of his hand against the back of mine, I looked up to see him smirking at me. "Think you can manage to break the dance down, or should I take the lead."

I couldn't help myself with him, "Oooh I do like a man who takes the lead." I cooed out in a husky voice and winked at him.

His eyes darkened for just a moment before they became clear again and he smiled that dazzling smile at me and took my hand and pulled me to the center of the room again. We broke the dance down, Ryan doing all the talking and it was funny because he made it sound like we had planned every move out, which was far from the truth; in reality the majority of the dance was a spur of the moment thing. When we were done with practice for the day, I walked over and bent down the grab my stuff when I felt someone behind me. I looked up into the mirrored wall and saw Ryan staring back at me. I straightened and turned around, the minute I was facing him; he wrapped both his hands around my waist and pulled me to him. A small gasp escaped my mouth and I put both my hands on his chest to steady myself.

"Please say you'll come over tonight and practice another routine with me?" Ryan asked. My stomach had the full-blown butterfly effect going on and I was suddenly nervous, I nodded a yes at him, not really trusting my voice. He smiled at me and bent down a little bit to press a soft kiss to my forehead. He suddenly let me go and in one fluid movement grabbed his stuff, turned and was walking out the door. I stood there dumbstruck watching him leave and didn't really come back to reality until I heard someone clearing their throat. I turned my head to see Christian standing there patiently.

I was suddenly nervous for a different reason, I remembered that I told Christian that I would meet with him after dance practice today to talk to him. I bent down and finished what I started in grabbing my stuff and walked out the room knowing that Christian and Dimitri would follow me.

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo O

I walked through several hallways till I got to a door that led to an empty stairwell. I walked in and picked a step to sit down on, I had a strong feeling that I was going to be arguing for awhile, and possibly lectured. My only hope was that neither one of them would be cruel enough to haul me back to court. Christian walked through the door first and sat down one step below me. I looked up to see Dimitri was leaning against the wall in front of me with his arms crossed in front of him. His eyes still held signs of being mad, but I could tell he was no longer as mad as what he was in dance practice. 'He has no right to be mad at me though, he made it quite clear that he no longer cared about me.' I thought to myself; I was confused by his actions and just a little bit mad myself. But despite all that, I still felt a pang of hurt shoot through my heart, I turned my gaze to Christian no longer able to look at Dimitri.

"Okay Rose, what the hell are you doing here?" Christian asked as soon as I gave him my attention.

"What do you mean?" I asked deadpan, I couldn't help but feel that an argument was going to break out between one of us.

"Rose, you know what I mean, just answer the question?" He said exasperated.

"Well, I go to school here." It was really all I could think of with feeling Dimitris eyes on me, it was making me nervous. Christian just rolled his eyes and let out a sigh.

"Why did you leave?" This came from Dimitri, I snapped my gaze to his still slightly heated one and I didn't fail to notice that his accent was thicker.

"For reasons that I'm not sharing with you." I said knowing full well that it sounded rude, even though I really didn't mean for it to come out that way.

"Rose! What the he—" Christian stood up and started shouted but Dimitri quickly silence him with a hand on his shoulder and a hard stare.

"Can you give Rose and me a few minutes." It wasn't really a question, but a statement. Christian nodded at him and walked back through the door we came through.

I was very suddenly aware that it was just Dimitri and me alone in the stairwell now; my nerves were jumping all around inside of me. I stood up leaving my stuff on the stairs and crossed the opposite wall of Dimitri and leaned against it, trying to put a little more space between us. With us being alone my hands ached to reach out to him, but I knew that it was pointless; he doesn't care for me no more and it also made me feel a little bad because despite how I felt about Dimitri I was started to like Ryan.

Dimitri stood there for a minute with his hands hanging down at his sides and stared at me.

"What!" I snapped at him.

He crossed the small space with one step and stood almost touching me, he put his hands on either side of me, efficiently trapping me. With him standing this close to me I could smell him, and it sent shivers down my back. I looked up into his eyes, I could see him struggling with his emotions and before I could decipher what it all meant. He leaned down and brought his lips to mine, the kiss was gentle at first but then quickly became heated. I completely lost myself in the feel of his lips on mine, Dimitri's lips. He broke away from the kiss and I could see hunger and pain in his eyes. He turned and strode out the room without a word. All over again I felt the pain of losing him, I slid down the wall and began crying.
