" she's really something" said mama as we sat in the kitchen drinking our morning coffee. We've been here for about 5 days, and it just keeps getting better and better.
I nodded "you have know idea". I said as i put a couple of donuts in a container for when roza wakes up.
" roza's still not up its 9 and she fell asleep like at 7 last night" said tori walking in with alexi. "sheesh," she laughed.
"sheesh" alexi repeated giggling.
I went over and took alexi from tor. " hey little guy".
" she's carrying a child inside of her, its very exhausting" said momma.
" yeah and she's always loved to sleep" I said playing with alexi.
Tori laughed and came and sat at the counter. " so are you scared,".
I nodded " a little,"
" your going to be a good dad," sadi tori. She saw a little doubt in my face. " you were the best father figure growing up always protecting us nad watching out for us, your going to be the best dad".
" thank you vika" I said. She smiled and nodded " she lives!" she said said to someone behind me. I already knew who it was, I always knew she was in the room with me without even looking.
I turned around and saw her. her beautiful hair in tosseled as if she didn't even to try to put a comb through it yet to me it always looked beautiful. And her stomach, our baby growing inside of her gave her this glow. I loved seeing her like this pregnant and to know its my baby growing inside of her makes my heart grow.
" goodmoring" I said to her as she approached me and alexi.
I gave her a quick peck. She smiled " goodmorning," she looked down and smiled at alexi. " hey little guy" she said as a smiling and laughing alexi he loved roza as much as paul and that's saying a lot.
She stole alexi from me " you know I thought your uncle was kinda cute, but he has nothing on you, you're so cute".
I looked at her smiling " ohh really"
She laughed " hands down,"
" well then im going to have to just give these doughnuts I went out and got this morning to someone who thinks otherwise" I said showing her the choclate doughnuts.
Her eyes widened " well you know you could give it to your pregnant girlfriend who loves you so much and is carrying your baby who loves doughnuts".
I laughed and handed it to her as she sat with alexi " only because my child likes them" I joked.
She glared at me and took the doughnuts devouring them.

" how was your nap?" dimitri asked as I come down the steps.
" good, shopping with tori and karolina is like shopping with lissa times two" I joked.
He smiled " while you were sleeping, some people came by when they heard we, I mean you were here".
"oh" I said confused " who?"
Oksana and mark came into the living room " Hi rose".
" oksana" I said smiling and going to hug her.
" yeva told me your good news! Congratulations!" she said.
"thank you".
" that's going to be one lucky little girl with a mother like you" she said smiling.
I gasped. Did she just say girl?
" oh, you didn't want to know? I'm so sorry I didn't know yeva didn't say anything when we were talking abo-" she said trying to apologized.
I shook my head " no, thank you, we were suppose to find out when we go back to court for our next appointment, I'm having a girl" I said smiling tears in my eyes as they shot straight to dimitri's whose lips streatch into a huge smile.
Olena continued " yeah, you can tell in your aurora".
Dimitri made his way to me and took my face in his hands smiling and reaching down to kiss me not caring who saw how full of a make out session we were having now.
He pulled away and smiled " were having a little girl" he mused.
I laughed as his hands went down and gheld my stomach kissing it,
I smiled crying " stupid hormones making me cry". Dimitri just laughed again and kissed me once more.
" you know that's the first time he made out with a girl in front of us!" joked tori.
Olena touched her " shhh, its and exciting moment ".
She came up and hugged us " come on lets celebrate dimka helped make black bread".
We ate. We laughed, it felt like such a good day. I kept marveling at the fact that there's a little girl, half me and half dimitri growing inside of me. oksana and mark departed after our fun evening.
Dimitri kissed my forehead after having a quick discussion in Russian with yeva. " I'm going to go talk with yeva".
"okay?" I asked confused then I got it, he was asking me. " go, I don't need you up on top of me all the time" I laughed.
I got up " where are you going?" he asked.
I shook my head laughing as I held the bottom of my stomach to stop myself from peeing on myself. " I have a baby on my blatter, I have to pee, is that all right all mighy one?"
" she told you" said paul. And we all burst out laughing.
Dimitri said something in Russian and went to go talk to yeva.
After talking about baby stuff with the girls it was around 11 when I decided to go knock out.
" im going to go up, alexi wakes up sometimes" said Sonya.
"ill go up with you, im dead beat". I said,
Tori laughed " aww, you tried to stay up to wait for dimitri".
I looked at her and glared playfully " no".
" yes you did, how cute".
I stuck my tongue out at her, something I haven't done sinc I was about 5, " i'm going to bed"
" its true love makes you all weird, cause you two are so weird and lovey dovey, ima puke" she said laughing.
We all alaughed and I followed Sonya up the stairs. " your good for my brother, he smiles, laughs, lets loose with you. I just wanted to say how thankful I am".
I smiled " you really don't have to thank me, its crazy how we act now after all we've been through. It amazes me how he acts now, and me, its so werid"/
" being happy?" she asked " a baby does that to you" she smiled as she opened the door. " if you have any questions about beign pregnant im always here, try not to ask karolina she'll say its this amazing expierence and labor is easy and all that bull crap, and it is to an extend, but it does hurt a lot, and you do get uncomfortable towards the end".
I laughed " I will take you up on that offer". I opened the door to dimitri's room " im just so exhausted".
She smiled and we went into our rooms.

"come sit I have something for you" said yeva as we went tot eh den and sat down.
" I saw what you did about the marriage law, I was wondering why you haven't asked her yet? Are you?"
I nodded smiling thinking of me and roza married " yes of course, its just I couldn't find a ring that I felt was good enough for her and I was having trouble trying to find how to do in a way to show how much I love her and mean it".
She smiled " here" she handed me a ring. " I loved your grandfather very much, its been passed down from the men in his family".
" I've never knew that?" I asked surprised yet extremely touched.
She smiled " I don't like to talk about him much, if its one thing that can bring an old broad down it's the subject of him".
" your stories of him, is what made me the guardian I am today I wanted to be as good as you said he was" I admitted.
She smiled and touched my cheek " you are, he would have been so proud of you" she laughed " and he would of loved rose for you just as I do".
She pulled a pitcture out of her side drawer of my grandfather who I always aspired to be. He died at a strogoi's hand when I was a year old and our family never speaks of it knowing yeva's feelings towards it.
" thank you, its amazing" I said looking at it.
" it is yours he would've made sure of it, now as for the proposal, I see a tree , specifically the one in the yard" she said winking at me.
I thought about it? then I laughed " the tree Sonya and karolina made me marry all there dolls under." I said.
She smiled " now you actually have the person you love to propose to and if you want marry under the tree".
I thought about it and smiled and thanked yeva and grabbed the ring safetly in pocket and went to the room knowing it was late and roza was most likely asleep.
I found her there laying down I quickly discared my clothes and climbed in behind her. she instinctively molded her back into me.
"mmmm" she said " how was your little talk? Any riddles?" she joked smiling.
I smiled and kissed the back of her neck " she just wanted to congratulate me on finally starting a family".
She turned around and face me and got as close as she could with her bump inbetween us." No riddle?"
I smiled " nope, just a little reprimand for not visisting as soon as I got changed back,".
She laughed and kissed me " can you believe were starting a family".
I smiled " it still feels so surreal". She yawned " what are you still doing up?" I asked.
She kissed me " couldn't fall asleep". She kept kissing me going further and further down my neck and on my chest.
She reached my lips again and yawned " go to sleep roza, my chest will be here in the morning".
She laughed and kissed me once more falling asleep on top of me hair splayed all over the place.
I sat up for most of the night planning on what to do. everytime I heard her call me her boyfriend it felt wrong I wanted to change that as soon as possible, I just needed to have a talk with my family and lissa. And call her parents, this is not going to be easy.

I went to sleep that night thinking about the family I am giving to dimitri, dreaming a beautiful little girl with my long hair yet hair to match her father's that I loved so much with those match gorgeous brown eyes I could get lost in. I also dreamt of another little girl looking just like dimitri and me and a little boy. It was truly a dream.
I woke up tearing as I remembered my dream. The realization hit me, what I wanted so deep down inside is finally coming true. Im not holding dimitri back by not being ablt o give him children im right there with him. What I craved that tasha had over me I no longer did.
I got up from the bed and walked over to the mirror and lifted my the big shirt up at my expanding almost 5 month belly. Wow Five months! Its feels crazy. Me here in Russia with family being able to give dimitri the family he always craved but gave up for me, now i didn't have to let him give up something he's always wanted.
" what are you doing up so early?" asked dimitri as he came up behind me making me jump out of my day dreaming.
He saw the tears fall down my face as I started to tear up as he put his hands on my stomach from the back. " why are you crying? Are you okay?" he asked.
I smiled and nodded " yeah im fine".
His eye brows furrowed " then why are you crying".
" I just realized something and I was so happy I started to cry" I said tears spilling out more.
He laughed " I don't know how to respond to that". he kissed my shoulder " what was this ephianny?" he asked as he tried to dry my tears.
I put my hand on top of his on my stomach and leant my head back to rest on him as he held me up a little. " it hit me that I can give you this family you've always wanted. You said you didn't want it you wanted me but I knew you were giving up something big, something tasha could give you. I felt useless in a way like I couldn't give you everything you wanted" he started to talk " I know I know you didn't care because you wanted me more but I still felt bad." I looked down at out hands on my belly. On our baby. " now, I can give you a family everything you ever wanted not letting you give up your chance at having a family because I can be that person to love you and give you the children you've always wanted" I said tears spilling out " I can be the one to see that smile and make you happy when you hold our daughter in your hands knowing it was me who made you that happy"
He turned me around and kissed me so thoroughly and deeply my knee's went weak. " I love you so much" he whispered against my lips " I don't know what I did to deserve you, both of you" he said kissing my stomach.
I started to cry even more and he kissed my lips, under my eyes, my forehead. " I love you" I said as he kissed down my neck our mood suddenly changing.
" I love you so much roza" he said kissing me even more throguhly if that was even possible.
" show me" I whispered. And he did.
DPOV
Over the next few days i talked to my mom and she and vika against my refusal were going into a a couple towns over for the night to take karolina and Sonya as well and go have a little get away saying that I was only going to do this once it needed to be perfect. Yeva knew my plans and said she'd be going to oksanas.
After that was settled I called lissa who nearly killed my ear drum and helped me with a lot of the planning.
My phone call with abe was extremely interesting.
FLASHBACK (sort of)
" Mr. Mazar" I said through the line.
" dimitri, how nice of you to call me to inform me how my daughter is doing, you knock her up and whisk her to Russia". He said in his sarcastic tone that I reminded me so much of roza.
" I…I uhhh, im proposing to rose" I stammered.
He was silent for a moment " wll, I guess a congrats is in order".
" so you have know problem with it?" asked.
" well, you already knocked her up so I don't see the commitment problem as well as you too going trough hell to be together. Also I know you know if you ever do anything to wrong to her I'd kill you, but I know you'd never do that" he laughed. " besides if I say no and it gets to rose, they'll be hell to pay, and theres no hiding from a pregnant hathway let me tell you, if she's anything like her mother, well lets just say I'll pray for you".
I laughed yet was a little scared "thank you Mr. Mazur".
" please, its Abe" he said. We talked a little more well him mostly about how to beware and always agree and he joked how there stubbornness just gets stronger with age. I got scared at that one.
RPOV
" whats with these secret phone calls?" I asked dimitri as he came back to the yard smiling. For that last couple of says he's been taking secret calls.
He smiled and kissed me " nothing just court calling to check up on us".
" so what are we going to do when you family leaves this afternoon?" I asked. They were going on this annual trip to a town about an hour away, but insisted we stay and enjoy some time to ourselves.
"roza" said tori coming in. " hey you wanna come rud some errands with me we could get lunch Sonya and karolina are coming its like a sister day".
I really just wanted to relaz with dimitri but they called me there sister, I smiled " yeah sure lemme just get dressed".
" roza you look stunning already" she laughed. I had on yoga pants and a a black top on.
" but you look nice, besides I have to use those maternity clothes we brought" dimitri hid all his shirts saying he'd call lissa and tell what I was wearing if I kept stealing his shirts laughing when I got mad with him pulling the lissa card know that was playing big.
She laughed " okay".
We went shopping and she made me buy this black strechty dress that showed off everything in all the right ways even with my bump out there for the world to see. I told her and Sonya I didn't know where I would wear it to but they insisted to but they insisted.
We got to the house a a couple of hours later it was starting to get dark, after going out fo lunch, dessert walking around. When we approached the house tori let me out and got back in the car.
" where are you going?" I asked
"where going to go meet mama at the place, you go in there dimitri's waiting" she said smiling.
" why don't you guys come in before you go" I asked confused.
" just go in rose" said Sonya laughing.
" fine, fine" I mumbled a little bummed that they were shoving me out the car.
I walked to the steps and open the door kinda bummed now. when I opened the door I saw the living room lit with candles and blankets layed out on the floor. I heard footsteps from the kitchen and dimitri peeked out of the kitchen.
" you're here ?" he said smiling.
" yeah? Whats all this?" I asked.
" they were suppose to keep you a little longer" he said smiling.
" yeah well I had to pee, and they all but shoved me out the car, I see why now!" I said laughing.
" I wanted to do something special for you" he said.
" i have to admit im a little shocked and scared" I said smiling
"scared? Why would you be scared?" he asked.
" you've never done this before" I said smiling as he kissed me on the lips pulling me up to the room.
" well seeing as I impregnated you I feel obligated to do something nice once in a while to thank you" he teased.
" you can't pull the im pregnant card" I quipped back laughing.
He gave me a look and laughed and brought me into the room. " im going to run you a bath while I finish dinner" he whispered down my neck.
"hmmm, why don't you join me" I asked.
He laughed " later".
He helped me into the bath and left to finish dinner. When I was done in the bath I walked back in the room to find the black dress I bought today layed out with a note and a pair of heels and flats.
The note read :
Knew you'd pick out the perfect dress as always. I didn't know what shoe's you'd prefer so I put out both put them on and meet me in the yard, its warm out.
dimitri
I smiled at how cute he was being I put the dress on and the heels as well as some make up but ony brushed my hair and left it out like he loved it and made my way to the backyard. Which was lit up in white lights looking amazingly beautiful and there by the large oak stood a table lit with candles and beside it my beautiful tall and perfectly mine Russian.
" you've out done yourself," I joked as I approached him.
" I should say the same, you look breathtaking" he said kissing me as I got to him.
" im not used to having a mini basketball under my dresses" I admitted.
" it makes you look even more gorgeous" he said kissing me once more. " shall we eat?" he asked.
" yes" I said smiling and giggling as he pulled out my chair for me " what a gentlemen".
" always" he said taking the seat next to me.
" aren't you suppose to sit on the opposite side of the table" I joked a little nervous.
He smiled at me " but how would you steel some of my food when its so far away".
I laughed. We ate dinner and talked about our life how it changed and how it'll be in ther future. When I was just about done with the choclate cake for dessert he got up once more.
" more food?" I asked we basically had a 5 course meal.
He laughed "no". he stood up next to me. " you know my sister used to make marry there dolls under this tree" he said.
I laughed " I may have heard about that".
He smiled and scratched his hand on the back of his neck " im kinda nervous" he said.
I was confused " about what?".
He took a deep breath " I thought about taking you back to the cabin to do this but then realized the travel wasn't good for the baby and you'd get suspious".
" too late" I intergected.
He laughed " let me help you then". He got down on one knee and pulled out a something from his pocket and opened his palm to reveal a ring.
Shocked was an understatement.
I started to cry, he was proposing. He saw my tears and smiled to match mine " I thought about what to do, aand asking the one women I want to marry and spend the rest of my life with under the tree I did so many times with dolls seemed right". He put the ring between his fingers " I love you so much, you always surprise me, I don't know how I got so lucky to have such an amazing woman like you love me the way you do. having children didn't bother me because my love for you over ruled that, but now here you are giving us that to. I love your stubbornness, the way you think and protect what you love, that you never give up on me even when I do, I love our child growing inside of you and that its both of us, I love the way you love, i love you soo much Roza. Will you marry me?"
By then any chance of trying to dry my tears was a waste of time, I smiled and bobbed my head like a booble head, " yes, yes ,yes" I said jumping into his arms I hugged him then kissed him with so much passion strigoi could pop out and I wouldn't notice or care. " I love you so much".
He placed the ring on my finger and it fit perfect. A big diamond followed my two smaller diamonds on either side on a silver band. " it so beautiful".
" nothing comapares to how beautiful you are" he said as he brought us both to our feet and kissed me once more and picked me up so I wouldn't have to tip toe. I quickly wrapped my legs around his waist and deepend the kiss, grounding myself into him,
"mmmmhhmmm" he mumbled.
"shhhh" I said breaking away gasping for air. " lets go upstairs".
He nodded and smiled attacking my lips once more as he walked well ran us both to the room.
