Yup, so I updated this story a week earlier to make you guys happy. My profile's being stupid and won't change that symbol of where I am to the Russian Federation and the flag. Probably coz I started my account in America. But anyways, the new update of You Left My Life will be next week. And my new story, Being In Love With My Guardian Is Crap, is up and running. So review and thanks for the long wait! And sorry if it's a little short.
THIS CHAPTER STARTS OFF IN LISSA'S POV...
"Well." Queen Tatiana said. "I have come to my decision. As soon as I die, the crown will be handed over to either Priscilla Voda or Vasilisa Dragomir. I officially declare that my succeeded shall be…"
Tatiana's smile was wicked as she said the word that would change my life forever.
"Vasilisa Dragomir."
I would've expected the least, but surprisingly, everyone in the room stood up from their seats and clapped. I couldn't help but smile. Never in my life had I though that I would be sitting in that throne that only the highly acclaimed Royal families would be seated at. I mean, what were the odds that I was the last Dragomir and I was chosen for Queen?
"We will be having a celebrant brunch tomorrow at noon. Everyone is welcome." she announced.
Minutes later, the room was busy, people scrambling out the door with rejoiced faces. I felt a tap on my back then strong arms go around me.
"Congratulations, Lis." whispered Christian in my ear.
I smiled then turned around and leaned into his strong, muscular chest. I peeked from behind his shoulder and saw Adrian, one arm around Aleyna, smirking at us. I quickly pulled away from Christian, took his hand, and strode over to Adrian.
"Where have you two been?" I said, putting my hands on my hips.
Aleyna stared at me with big, purple eyes then brushed a loose strand of hair from her face with light fingers. I watched her movement carefully. Then, I saw it. On her left hand, on one of her slim, pale fingers, was a golden band. Not just any golden band, but one with a diamond the size of a rock. I knew my answer as soon as I saw that picture.
"When did you…?" I asked in a quiet, but surprising voice.
Adrian shifted uncomfortably then pulled Aleyna closer to him. "Last week. That's why we were gone."
I folded my arms across my chest.
"And you didn't even think about leaving a little note to your friends, who have been worried like hell over you?" I demanded, feeling the urge to stomp my foot.
Aleyna sighed. It almost impossible to get mad at her. She was sweet, settle, and hated getting into fights, especially with her close friends. So somehow, I knew I couldn't be mad at her. She would try to get everyone to calm down and explain in a very light and small voice.
"Lissa." Aleyna started. "Don't blame Adrian. Blame me. We were just so anxious to get married that leaving a note slipped through my mind. We feel awful about it."
I hesitated then took a deep breath. "Why didn't you guys at least invite us? There's been a lot of drama while you two were gone."
"We kinda…" Adrian stumbled. "didn't tell anyone about it. We…"
One word struck my mind.
"You guys eloped?" I blurted out.
Aleyna blushed and Adrian's eyes widened.
"No!" he said quickly. "Of course not! As much as I love Vegas, that's too shallow. We had a real proper wedding, not as fancy as yours and Rose's, but it was fun."
I sighed in relief. "Well, then, I guess I'm happy for you guys."
A moment later, my cell phone started to vibrate. I pulled it out of my purse and looked at the sender ID. It was Dimitri. My heart started to beat faster. I pressed the READ button. It said:
surgery's over. baby's ok. but rose wont wake up.
My heart skipped a beat. I pushed the phone in front of Christian so he could read it.
"Hospital?" he asked.
I nodded my head slowly, as I put the phone back in my purse with shaky hands.
"Are you okay?" Adrian asked with a worried expression.
"It's Rose." I whispered. "She had a miscarriage. The surgery's over, but she won't wake up."
"Shit." Adrian swore. "We'll come with you."
I didn't need to argue. I started for the door, everyone trying desperately to catch up to me. My best friend just had to wake up. I still had to have hope. She will wake up, I told myself.
Dimitri's POV
The surgery ended five hours ago, but she still wouldn't wake up. The doctor had told me that the baby was back in his place and Rose would wake up in the next two hours. But she hadn't. I was sitting on one of those plastic chairs, staring at her. Her skin was still as pale as ever. CC was laying down on the hospital bed, sleeping, snuggled up against Rose's side.
Once I had text Lissa, she had immediately responded.
we'll b rite ther.
Five minutes later, footsteps shuffled into the room. I turned around and met the blank eyes of Lissa. One moment she was at the door, and another, she was across the room, leaning over Rose.
I looked back at the she had also brought. Christian, Adrian, and Aleyna. They were all crossed the room a second later. Christian place a hand on my shoulder and patted it.
"Hey man." he muttered. "Get some rest. You look like crap. No offense. Head home and come back later, we got Rose."
I shook my head. I probably did look horrible. Blood-shot eyes, stubble on my chin.
"I'm okay here." I told him.
He rolled his eyes. "That's what you said last time. Adrian, Aleyna and I will head to your house, get a couple of things, and you can use the hospital showers or something."
I shrugged then nodded. It was better then leaving Rose. After they left, Lissa looked at me. Her eyes were wet with tears.
"Do you think she'll be okay?" she murmured.
"I hope so." I answered. Then, slowly, I stood up and went up to Rose's bed. I took CC in my arms and laid her down on the chair I had just gotten off of. Then, I cupped my hand around Rose's cold cheek, stroking it.
"I love you Roza. Please, please, please wake up." Taking my hand away, I placed my warm lips against her forehead.
Rose's POV
I was alone in the dark. There was no light. I was shriveled up in the middle of nowhere except I couldn't see anything but darkness. Where was I? I had no clue. How did I get here? Beats me. There was no sound except for my rugged breathing. I couldn't even move. Something warm was cuddled up against my side, and it felt good to know that there was some heat in a wave of coldness. Just then, I heard a voice. It was a female's voice. It sounded like it was crying.
"Do you think she'll be okay?" the voice asked to somebody. Who'll be okay?
A moment later a calming, male voice came.
"I hope so." it said. I knew that voice. It sounded so familiar. It was tugging on my brain. I knew this voice.
Then, a warm hand cup and stroke my cheek. It was soothing. Maybe a little too soothing. Again, the touch was familiar. Little electric sparks flew when he touched me.
"I love you Roza. Please, please, please wake up." said the voice again.
Roza, I remembered. That was me. I was the one who needed to be 'okay'. But what happened to me?
Then, a warm sensation tugged on my forehead. It was like I could finally see something. The warmness was coming from his lips.
Dimitri! I remembered now. Dimitri is there, I said to myself. He needs me. I had to wake up. And CC and Lissa! They were here too! Come on Rose, you can do this.
Carefully, I twitched my hand. Hopefully they saw it.
They did.
Lissa gasped. "Did you see that? Her hand! It moved!"
Dimitri didn't say anything.
"Dimitri! Didn't you see that?" she cried.
Yes Lissa! Keep it up! But Dimitri didn't say anything. He needs more proof. I had to open my eyes. I have to wake up! I had to be there for Dimitri and CC and for the baby. They were my family and they loved me.
Just then, he kissed me. It was a light kiss on the lips, but it held power. Everything in my body heated up and I felt my heart beat again. I was in full possession of my body. I could feel the ruffled sheets of the hospital bed and Dimitri's hand curled around my hip.
I opened my eyes.
Review and thanks for reading! :D
