So heyyyyy guyssss. I know I'm sorry its been like 8 months since I last updated but I've been incredibly busy and being 100% honest I didn't even try to make time to write the next chapter for this story so I'm super sorry. I'm thinking about coming back to just finish this story up because its incredibly unfair to get into a story and never read the ending. So I'm doing this for you guys, because sadly I have lost interest in this story. I'm going to try and finish this story up in under five chapters! So wish me good luck! BTW Merry Christmas & New Years if I don't update by then.
Looking around campus it's hard to believe that I've been here for 8 months now. Tomorrow is graduation and ironically my birthday. My 18th birthday. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't excited to celebrate that for the first time.
But its got me thinking about everything Dimitri has noticed that I've been distracted lately. Dimitri. We've been together for 7 months now and its truly been Heaven. But, come on, what did I expect from being in a relationship with an angel.
But back to what I was thinking about, I've been distracted lately. These past months might have been heaven but at the same time hell.
I'm constantly looking over my shoulder, being paranoid, and thinking about whats coming next. After everything that happened we're all just waiting for God to call us back. But like I said its been 8 months and still nothing.
We're like sitting ducks. And its pissing me off.
I want to get this over with just waiting for Him to call us back has got me over-thinking everything.
I sigh and draw up my knees to my chest. I'm in the woods were Dimitri and I race usually every morning, this path has become ours. The spring season has got the flowers blooming and its brought some color to the usual green trail. That's why I was here, I needed to get away from everything. I needed a break to think about things.
I don't want to hear Graduation plans and definitely not my birthday plans, sorry Lissa. That's also got me thinking. What happens if He doesn't call us back soon. Anytime from here to tomorrow is the only real good time.
Because I haven't even tried to think about anything past that. Dimitri and Lissa have tried to coax information about what we were going to do after graduation if we weren't called back.
Sadly, I had to go back to Florida after it. Dimitri and the gang have tried to reassure me and told me they'd move down south with me but I don't want to uproot anyone, even though they seem not to mind. They told me there's nothing for them here.
But even if they come to Florida what then. We'll still all be waiting for God to call us. It's not like we can be like every other high school graduate and think about college and partying and shit like that. And we definitely couldn't move on with our lives and start planning about the future.
That was one of my main concerns the future. It scared me to think about it. What happens if Lucifer puts the curse on us again when God calls us back then what another constant of dying every seventeen years. Or even worse what happens if Dimitri and I truly move on. Wait, that sounded bad, I mean like what happens if we start a life and maybe even have kids and then we're uprooted because we've been called back that would be torture.
As horrible as it seems I want to get it over with. I don't want any more heartbreak for myself and definitely not for Dimitri.
Getting so lost in thought I didn't hear the crunch of branches from behind me until two strong arms engulfed me from behind.
"Stop thinking too hard Roza, there's smoke coming from your head.", a Russian laced voice whispers in my ear.
"Sorry, I just keep over-thinking everything." I sigh.
He sits on the log that I'm sitting on and twists me to face him," Roza, it really isn't that complicated we wait to get called back and if it so happens to not be today or tomorrow then we'll return with you to Florida. Stop making things complicated your going to give yourself a headache." I laugh.
"Okay, okay I get it. What time is it?" I ask
He checks his watch, "Five. Why? Do you have plans with Lissa? "
I giggle," As a matter of fact I do, she wants to go buy our graduation dresses."
"Ahhh ok", he nods," Oh, have you and her made any plans for your birthday?"
I shake my head," No I rather not have a party it'll be strange. The after party for graduation will do."
He sighs and runs a hand through my hair," Are you sure Roza? You might regret not celebrating your first 18th birthday."
I laugh," Um- I'm pretty sure I won't miss celebrating being a year older than you."
He laughs with me," I didn't even think of that."
"Guess I'm a cougar now."
He chuckles,"Don't worry Roza I don't think your body will age."
My eyebrows shoot up in surprise," Wait, are you serious?"
He nods," Your technically only supposed to reach 17 years of age so I don't think you will physically age until God calls us and makes a decision."
"Oh wow I didn't even think of that." I say.
"And yet you were over-thinking everything else." I laugh and shove his shoulder.
"Alright alright comrade come on i have to get back to Lissa before she throws a fit."
We both get up and start walking the path back to school. I intertwine our fingers and rest my head on his shoulder, "Hey how are you and Lissa getting dresses remember your not allowed out of the school unless your with a guardian, I thought your parents were coming in tomorrow morning."
I chuckle nervously," They are actually. Lissa made plans. Um- she knows someone who has a car and knows how to get off campus."
Dimitri stops in his tracks," Adrian? Really?"
"Don't worry Dimitri its not like anythings gonna happen he's in love with Sydney remember?"
He sighs and continues walking," I remember but that doesn't mean I trust him."
"Well I do and you should too." I reply.
He shakes his head," You only say that cause he's been you best guy friend for a few thousand years."
I laugh," Have you seen my friends they're all angels so i guess I'm a good judge of character."
He chuckles and as soon as we stop in front of my dorm room the door whips open.
"Rose! I've been waiting forever you're like thirty minutes late!",yelled Lissa.
Hell hath no furry like an angry blonde.
"Lissa I'm literally like 5 minutes late." I laugh.
She huffs," Maybe you are but I've been waiting in here for an extra 25 minutes in hopes that we'd leave earlier." I nod and push past her into my room.
Adrian is laying on my bed nice.
"Rosie" He nods not making a move to get off my bed even with Dimitri glaring at him.
I nod back," Designated driver." He laughs.
"Well we better get on the road, I'm paying him by the hour", Lissa jerks her finger at Adrian.
"Oh okay." I nod. We all walk out of my room. I loop my arms around Dimitri's neck and give him a small peck on the lips.
"See ya later Comrade." He shakes his head and chuckles. Adrian, Lissa, and I start walking away when Liss turns around and says," Oh! Dimitri Christian is looking for you."
He nods and starts heading to the boys dorm.
We continue our walk to the broken fence behind the cemetery where our ride is.
"Why was Christian looking for Dimitri?" I ask Lissa.
She shrugs in reply.
I huff," So you and Christian. You guys have been hanging out a lot lately huh."
She shrugs again but this time tries to hide a blush.
I laugh," I swear you too are the epitome of the on and off couple."
She laughs along with me this time. We reach the fence and crawl under it through the small hole."
The drive to the mall was relatively short just full of bickering in between Adrian and Lissa. Which I might say is kind of funny. When we arrived at the mall me and Lissa decided to go to Macy's while Adrian decided to just wait for us in the food court.
It didn't take long for us to find dresses. Lissa went all out in a light pink strapless sweetheart neckline with a bedazzled bodice. Being myself I would usually go fir something daring but I chose not this time. I don't know if it was the angel in me but I really just wanted something simple and nice. So I went with a white one strap dress. It kind of resembled an old Greek dress it had a gold embroiders belt and the one strap had gold on it too the dress flew out in a loose from so like i said Greek but it stopped at my knees.
Same went for shoes Lissa choosed five inch high sparkly stiletto pumps. And let me tell you for a girl she was already relatively tall so with the heels she looked like she was barley scratching 6 ft. I ended going with a pair of gold strappy sandal heels to go with my outfit.
The drive back to campus was exhausting and i really don't remember much of it/ I'm pretty sure i feel asleep, hopefully I wasn't snoring to loud.
I said goodbye to Adrian and Lissa and headed for my dorm to drop off my dress and shoes and to change into something comfortable. I pulled on a white tank top, fuzzy Eeyore pants, and a pair of Uggs for shoes. I removed my makeup and pulled my hair into a messy bun when i was done i closed the door behind me and headed for the boys dorm.
To be honest I rarely slept in my room. I almost always slept in Dimitr's room with the exception of when the RA's where patrolling which was once a month. I yawn and unlock the door to his room, yes I have my own key.
I can see his figure already in bed asleep. I kick off my Uggs and then crawl up on the bed and into the sheets. I snuggle into his back and breathe in his scent.
He must have realized I came in because he turned around in bed and spooned with me. He placed a small kiss on my neck and sighed," Hmmm goodnight Roza."
YAAAAAY for first chapter back lol. So yeah quick recap the last chapter took place around November so yes I skipped like 8 months just to make things go by easier I don't like dragging a story on if its unnecessary. Tell me what you guys think. Its been a while so let me know if i didn't capture someones personality accurately or something. If you guys review a lot I'm going to assume you want me to continue and finish this story so review review review if you want me to keep going. And if you do then the next chapter will most likely be posted next week.
