Sorry it took a while . I started reading Willow by Julia Hoban(Should so check that out!) And it kept me away from my laptop so I couldn't write much :( I'm SO sorry. But I hope you enjoy this chapter(: Oh and can you PLEASE go to my profile and vote on my poll? I'd appreciate the help(:

I sat there, looking at Dimitri in complete awe. Is this really the moment? Is he really proposing to me? Am I dreaming? I pinched myself. Definetaly not dreaming.

Dimitri kept looking at me. "So...will you?"

I took in a deep breath and smiled. "Of course I'll be Mrs. Belikov!"

He slipped the ring on my ring finger and got up to hug me tight. "Thank you. I love you so much Roza."

"I love you too Dimitri." I kissed him deeply. "More than you know."

He smiled, taking his seat across the table from me. I stretched my hand out and looked at the ring. It was so beautiful. It was silver, the metal was melted to be shaped like a rose, and it was outlined in diamonds. My breath caught and I put a hand over my mouth, tearing threatening to spill out.

"Dimitri...this is so beautiful."

He smiled. "I knew you would love it. It's custom-made. I had it made like a rose because your name is Rose and it's beautiful, but not as beautiful as you."

The tears spilled out and down my cheeks. "Dimitri..."

He was smiling big now. "I'm so glad you love it Roza. I knew you would."

I got up and sat on his lap, hugging him tight. "Thank you Dimitri, thank you so much. I love it so so much!"

He hugged me back, kissing right below my ear. "Your welcome love."

I got up, standing over him. "How about we take our drinks to go? We have some business to take care of."

He looked at me confused. "What business?"

"You'll see." I went and got two to go cups, pouring our water in to each of them.

I gave the waitor twenty dollars. "Keep the change."

I took my hand in Dimitri's, taking him down to my apartment.

"I think it's time I move back in with you."

"I think so too."

I smiled, opening the apartment.

I gave him a big suitcase. "I need you to please pack up my clothes while I pack up all my bathroom stuff."

"Okay." He took it and started taking everything out of the closet.

I grabbed a smaller bag and started putting my soap and everything inside of it.

"All done." He set the suitcase on the bed.

"Thank you Dimitri." I finished and set the bag on the bed beside the suitcase.

"Your welcome love." He leaned down to kiss me.

I wrapped my arms around his neck, kissing back deeply. I felt his arms wrap around my waist.

I whispered in his ear. "I love you, so much. Words can't say how much."

"I love you just as much Roza, maybe more."

I let go, smiling at him. "That's impossible."

"Is not." He was grinning himself.

I kissed him again. "Is too."

He picked up the bags and smiled. "How about we give Lissa the key then we figure this out in our apartment?"

I smiled. "Good idea."

After we gave the key to Liss and had all my stuff unpacked and put back where they go, Dimitri and I were laying on our sides facing each other on the bed. Dimitri was running his fingertip up the bridge of my nose and up my forehead and back down. I smiled up at him.

"So what do you want to do on our first night back in the same bed?"

"Maybe we could start making wedding arrangements?"

He grinned big. "Eager to get married?"

"Very."

"I'm glad,I'm excited too."

"Really?"

"Of course. I'm marrying the girl I love."

"Awww.." I kissed him.

Dimitri broke away all too quickly.

"Damnit."

He smiled. "So what're you wanting to start with on our long list of wedding arrangements?"

"Maybe with the list of people invited?"

"Sounds fair enough. Who are you thinking of inviting?"

"My mom, dad, your family, Lissa, Christian, Mykchel, Victoria."

"Sounds good. Don't want to invite Adrian?"

"No, unless he promises to stay away from the alcohol."

He laughed. "Sounds fine to me."

I got up and started writing down the names of people to invite.

"Why don't we invite Mason's family too?"

I turned around. "Oh my God, thank you for reminding me Dimitri! How could I forget about them?"

He kissed my cheek as I jumped on him and hugged him tight. "Your very much welcome."

I got up and quickly added all of Mason's family to the list. I'm so glad Dimitri mentioned Mason. How could I forget about him though?

"So are you ready to go to bed? We have a big day ahead of us."

"What do you mean?"

"Well, we have to call my family, your family, tell Lissa and Christian and all of the other guardians."

I sighed. "Very true. Lissa will gush over it, especially the ring."

He laughed.

I glared. "Not funny. You have to go through it too."

"Oh no, that's a girls thing. I have to call my family."

I tackled him, straddling him. "You are not going to stay in this apartment while I suffer through Lissa's gushing."

"Oh yes I am."

"Nope. She'll want to talk to you anyways."

"About?"

"I have no idea. But I do know her."

He sighed. "Guess I'll have to go."

I smiled. "Good boy." I kissed his forehead.

"Ready to go to bed yet?"

"Yes. I'm more than ready."

"Good."

I got off of him and we changed in to our pajamas.

"Goodnight Dimitri, I love you."

"I love you too Roza, goodnight." He shut off the lights and I fell asleep instantly.

I woke up in the same bed as I did with my dream of Demi. But she wasn't there to wake me. I sat up and looked around, confused.

"Demi? Demi, where are you?"

"Who's Demi?" Dimitri was standing in the doorway of the bathroom.

"Our daughter?"

"We don't have a daughter silly. We're dhampirs, we can't have children."

I thought about it for a second. This must be before Demi was ever born. I must be having dreams of the future or something?

"You okay Rose?"

"Yeah. I guess I was just dreaming of a little girl named Demi."

"What all happened in your dream?"

"I don't remember. All I remember is a little girl named Demi and she looked just like you."

"Oh, well that's odd. Ready to get to work?"

"Work?"

"Guardians of Lissa and Christian, remember?"

I laughed. "Oh yeah. I'm sorry."

"It's fine, just hurry and get dressed. You slept in."

I got up and turned on the shower. But as soon as I had my clothes off and I was under the shower head, everything got cloudy and disappeared.

I woke up in Dimitri's arms. I smiled to myself. I get to wake up like this every single day for the rest of my life. I snuggled in deeper to his chest, taking in the last few moments before our alarm would go off and we'd have to get up and go to work. I breathed him in, smiling.

BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP!

"Damnit!" I got up and shut the alarm clock off.

Dimitri sat up in bed. "Goodmorning."

"Correction. It's not a good morning."

"And why is that?"

"I was all comfortable snuggling up in your chest when the alarm clock went off."

"Aww..poor Rose."

I sat in his lap and he wrapped his arms around me. "Very poor Rose."

"Bad start to a tiring day."

"I know, Lissa is going to drive me absolutely crazy."

"I'll be there with you, don't worry."

I smiled a thank you and went to the bathroom to fix my hair that I already could tell was a huge mess. I groaned.

"Hair issues again?"

"Yeah, it looks like a bird made a nest out of it!"

I could hear the smile in his voice. "Why don't you take a quick shower and fix it?"

"I was going to do that, duuh."

He laughed and I got out of my clothes, getting in to the shower.

After about ten minutes in the shower, I decided I was clean and got out.

"Hurry Rose, we're late. Lissa called."

I quickly put my wet hair up in a ponytail and swiped on a little make up. I ran to the closet and got a pair of black dress pants, a button-down white blouse and a black vest to put over it. I finished the look with a pair of black flats.

"Beautiful as ever."

I blushed. "Why thank you."

"Your welcome. Ready to break the news to Lissa?"

"No, but I have to."

He smirked. "You don't have to..."

"Yes I do, if she were to find out on her own...she'd kill us."

"Very true."

I took my hand in his, and we walked down the hall to their apartment. I slipped my ring in to my front pocket. Dimitri knocked a few times.

"Come in!"

We walked in and I sat on the couch beside Lissa.

"Liss, I have some news for you."

"Are you pregnant?"

"No! Dhampirs can't get pregnant, remember?"

She exhaled big. "Thank God!"

I took in a deep breath. "Liss..."

"Yes Rose?"

"Hold out your hands."

She held them out and open.

I took the ring out of my left front pocket and put it in her hands. I heard her breath catch.

"Rose...where in the world did you get a ring like this?"

I took in a deep breath and took the ring and put it on my ring finger. "Dimitri gave it to me last night. We're engaged."

She exhaled the air she was keeping in. I looked at her, a little worried.

"Why aren't you jumping around being excited?"

"I'm thinking of what to say."

I waited a moment. Then Lissa said in my head, "I don't want to gush like I always do."

"I'm so happy for the two of you, when's the wedding?"

I laughed. "Well...we have the invite list done, and that's it."

She laughed. "Need any help?"

"Can you order red roses to be on the end of each pew at the end where the aisle is, and a dozen for Rose to carry to me." Dimitri pipped in.

"Will do."

I looked at them both, shocked.

"Oh and have them sent to the church here please."

"Okay."

Lissa went straight to the phone to order them, even though we didn't decide on a date.

"Red roses are a symbol of 'I love you', so I figured we could have them for the wedding. Since we love each other."

I smiled. "Aww...thanks Dimitri."

"Your welcome."

Lissa came back in. "The roses are ordered. You just have to call when you know a date."

"Thanks."

"Your welcome. Do you guys want the day off?"

"For what?"

"To plan the wedding. Duh, Rose."

"Oh,ummm sure."

"Okay. Go plan your wedding."

I mumbled a thanks, and left with Dimtri.

"So what do you want to do first?"

"Maybe call the family?"

"Good idea."

I pulled out my cell and dialed my mother.

"Hello?"

"Hey mom."

"Hi. What do you need? I'm on duty."

"Sorry. I wanted to tell you that Dimitri and I are engaged."

I'm greeted with silence.

"Mom?"

"Sorry, I was a little shocked."

"Why? Everyone else saw it coming."

"Well, I figured you wouldn't get married and just stay a guardian all your life."

"Sorry mom. I'm not you."

I hung up and sighed loudly.

"Everything go okay?"

"No. My mom told me she figured I'd be an unmarried guardian all my life, so I told her I'm not her."

He wrapped his arms around me. "I'm sorry."

"It's fine." I rubbed his arms.

"Time to call my mom."

"Good luck."

He was laughing. "Thanks. I'll need it."

He walked in to the other room, dialing a number on his cell phone. I took my own out, thinking about calling my dad. No, I thought. That won't be any better than the conversation with my mom. I sighed and put my phone back in my pocket. After about two minutes my phone went off.

"Hello?"

"I just got off the phone with your mother. I hear you're getting married to Guardian Belikov?"

Of course she'd call him.

"Yes I am."

"I also heard you were rude to her."

I sighed. "I did because she didn't say congrats or anything. All she said was that she thought i'd be a single guardian for my whole life."

"Well you still didn't need to say what you did. Your mother is a great woman."

"If she's so great then why didn't you ever stick around?"

"Because we both had things to do. A guardian can't stay focused if they're married."

"I know."

"Then maybe you should call and apologize."

"Fine." I hung up.

"Ready to get some sleep?"

"Yeah." I got in to my pjs and shut all the lights off.

"Goodnight. I love you."

"I love you too Roza."

He kissed me softly and I kissed him back. The kiss had deepened, I found my way on top of him. He wrapped his arms around my waist and we kept kissing.

"I love you so much", I whispered against his lips.

"I love you so much too."
