Chapter 5

*Rose's POV*

"Okay, what gives?" I questioned Lissa. I've been with Lissa all day, and the whole time she has been staring at me when she thinks I'm not looking. That was her mistake. I'm always looking. "Is there something on my face?"

I got no response but a smile.

That only made me more frustrated. "Why the hell are you smiling at me like that?" I snapped. I know I probably shouldn't have snapped at her, but I didn't get much sleep the night before. I was a bit… Busy.

"There's something about you today…" The blonde girl said.

Tapping my foot impatiently, I gestured for her to continue.

"Rose, you're glowing."

"I'm what? Is that a nice way to say sweating, because I have an excuse?" I had to run to get there on time this morning, after accidently oversleeping.

"No Rose. You're just… glowing. It's kind of like a shimmer. I don't know how to really explain it." She attempted to explain.

"A shimmer? Am I a fairy now?"

Lissa laughed and rolled her eyes. "Don't question me. It's just something silly, forget I said anything."

She and I were sitting on her bed, reading magazines. Since we were only in her room, I didn't have to be on full guardian mode, but I was still cautious of everything. Also, I knew that there were 5 guardians outside of the bedroom. It's odd though. All my life I expected to be one of Lissa's only guardians. I knew that since she was the last of her line, she would have two, but I could handle two. Now that there is a whole army of them protecting her, I didn't have to worry as much. I didn't have to, but I did anyway.

"So," Lissa said, closing the Vogue magazine she was reading. "What's happening in the life of Rose Hathaway? Any new stuff I should know about?"

Besides the fact that I'm about 4 weeks pregnant and I haven't told you.

"Not really. Life's just going on as normal." I lied. I hated not telling her, but until I figured all this out, I want to wait.

"Really?" Lissa sounded slightly disappointed.

"Yup, really."

Lissa didn't have any time to question me further. The wooden door to her room burst open loudly. Instantly, I was in full guardian mode. My hand went right to the silver stake in my belt and was up on my feet. Getting up that fast was a mistake, because as soon as I got up, dizziness overwhelmed me.

"Relax and put down the stake. It's just me."

In walked none other than the infamous Christian Ozera. His black haired was messy, but it looked perfectly so.

"Well thanks dumbass. You couldn't have opened the door carefully?" I snapped.

Another voice replied to me. "Roza, no need to be snippy. He was kidding."

I looked back to the door and my mood changed instantly. In walked my Dimitri, brown hair tied back and wearing his signature duster. He never took that thing off. I sent him a grateful look. Little did he know that he and Christian saved me from spilling me secret to Lissa.

I tore my eyes away from my sexy boyfriend and turned them back to the Royal couple. They were making out.

"Oh gag." I said obnoxiously loud. Most guardians were supposed to stay quiet and respectful. When you're your best friends' guardians, those rules are different. "Get a room before I vomit from your lovey dovey overdose."

Not long were the words out of my mouth before I raced to the large bathroom. The nausea was overwhelming me and caused me to upchuck my little breakfast.

I flushed away the disgusting contents I just added to the toilet. I leaned my head against the cool tile of the floor and curled in a ball.

"Shit." I whispered. "It's starting already." I tried to sit up, wrapping an arm around my not yet showing stomach, and ended up just adding another gift to the toilet. I could barely keep my eyes open, I felt so weak. The last thing I heard before blacking out was the sound of people entering the bathroom and my name being called.

Why was my bed so plushy? And since when did it get so big? I opened my eyes slowly, letting them adjust to the light. "What the hell happened?" I croaked. My mouth tasted vile and was so dry. I realized why my bed was so big and fluffy. I was in Lissa's bed. My head was wet with sweat and water. Someone was holding a damp washcloth to my head.

"You passed out Rose." A calm voice said. I glanced over at who was holding the washcloth. Lisss was sitting next to me, Christian standing behind her.

"And you managed to successfully give your boyfriend a heart attack." A sexy voice said. I glanced the other way and smiled slightly. Dimitri was sitting in a chair next to the bed, one hand holding mine and the other in his hair which was no longer tied back. "Thanks for that by the way."

Sitting up slightly, I felt a slight wave of nausea roll over me. I tried really hard to keep it down, and managed to. "Dimitri… I think I might need to see a doctor." I said, hoping he understood what I meant. I realized I should probably see a real doctor. I know nothing about being pregnant and what vitamins to take to keep the baby healthy.

He seemed to get it and nodded. "You're right. We'll leave tonight, so that we can get to a human one right when they open."

"Why not go to one at the Court?" Christian asked. I shot him a look which silently told him to shut up.

"Okay then. All I need is a glass of water and I can get back into full guardian mode." I said, trying to wipe the tiredness out of my eyes.

"How about a glass of water then you go back to your room and rest? Rose, you're in no condition to do anything right now but sleep. Besides, Christian and I are staying here the rest of the day." Lissa said, glancing at Christian. I understood what she meant. "You two Dimitri, you go take care of her. We've got enough guardians outside."

"Lissa…" I sighed.

"Rose, that's an order. Now go home and sleep!"

Sighing, I got up off the bed. I hugged Lissa, whispering thanks. Dimitri was instantly at my side, scooping me up into his arms. I was too tired to fight him and walk, so I allowed him to hold me bridal style in his arms. I closed my eyes and let myself doze off into a dreamless sleep.
