I am so so sorry this isn't as long as it usually is. I reeeeally wanted to update it for you guys /: I promise the next chapter will be long. Despite the length, I hope you guys like it! Oh! And as I mentioned, I'm writing another story for FF, but it's a remake of Alice In Wonderland (The 1952 cartoon, not the Johnny Depp one). I have yet to really get Chapter 1 written, so bear with me. Again, I apologize about the length of this chapter. I was really wanting to update it for you guys before February ended.

It was another morning of waking up to Dimitri waking up. I was super groggy, looking up at him.

"I'm about to leave soon. Get up and say bye."

I barely mumbled an intelligent bye. He laughed.

"Get up and give me a real goodbye."

I groaned, rolling over. I looked up at him and finally got the strength to get out of bed.

"There we go."

I smiled and hugged him. He hugged back.

"Goodbye, I love you Dimitri."

"I love you too Rose."

"Have a good day at work!"

"I'll try. You be careful okay?"

I laughed. "How can I not be careful?"

"You could fall down the stairs."

"True..." I said, really thinking about it.

He laughed while I followed him down the steps.

"Shut up, I just woke up," I said, pouting.

He smiled and leaned down to kiss me. "Have a good day with Lissa, Rose. I love you."

I kissed him back. "I love you too. Have a good day!"

He smiled at me before shutting the door behind him. I pretty much crawled up the steps, back to our bedroom.

"Should just lay down until Liss gets here," I mumbled to myself as I got into bed.

But after about 3 minutes, I groaned and got out of bed, deciding to do something to myself instead of look like crap all day. I undressed and got into the shower. Once I was clean, I got out, wrapping a towel around my body and walked back into the bedroom. As soon as I opened the closet, the doorbell rang.

"Damn it," I said, walking down to the front door.

It was Lissa, so I let her in.

"Hey. Just get out of the shower?"

"Pretty much. Just opened my closet and you rang," I said laughing.

"Oh, well I'll stay down here until you're done," She said laughing.

I walked back up the steps into our room and walked into the closet.

"Hmm..What to wear?"

I leafed through my shirts, finding nothing to wear.

"Uuuuugh.."

"What?" Lissa yelled from the living room.

"I can't find anything, and I want to look good for once."

"Want my help?"

"Yeah."

She came up the steps, appearing in the doorway of the closet.

"So what is it you're wanting to wear exactly? Formal, comfortable or a mixture of both?"

"Mixture of both. It'd look kind of stupid to be dressed up for nothing."

"True," she said as she rummaged through my closet.

As she looked through, I got out a bra and a pair of panties and dried myself, getting into them.

"So we could put you in a nice blouse with some comfortable boot cut jeans maybe?"

"That sounds good. What color blouse?"

She rummaged through more. "How about a light purple? This one looks more like a low cut t-shirt."

"That sounds good. The jeans blue or black?"

"Which would you rather have?"

"Blue."

"Alright," she said as she got the clothes off their racks.

"That looks really good. What shoes should I wear with?"

"Boots or some heels would look good."

"I don't know about heels. If Dimitri saw me, he'd freak."

We both laughed. "True," she said.

"So maybe some really low heeled boots?"

"Sounds good. I have some if you want to borrow them?"

"Oh, no. Thanks. I have a pair or 2 somewhere."

"Okay. Want me to find them for you?"

"Yeah. I think they're still in a box in one of the spare rooms in a box we still haven't unpacked."

"Alright," she said, walking out of the room.

I slipped on the jeans and shirt, finding a pair of socks.

"Found them!" she yelled.

I laughed as she ran into the room, handing them to me.

"Thanks Liss."

"You're welcome! You look really good!"

"Thanks!"

I pulled on socks then the boots. I walked into the bathroom to look at myself in the full mirror.

"It does look nice."

"I told you!"

"What about makeup and hair?"

"We could keep your hair down and put a little makeup on you. Maybe just a little eyeliner on the bottom, mascara and a sweep of eyeshadow."

"That sounds pretty."

"Yeah. Want to do that?"

"Yes."

"Okay."
We walked over to my vanity and I sat down.

"Look up," she said, putting on the eyeliner. I looked up.

"Alright, now for mascara."

She looked through my bag for it and I opened the drawer, giving her the tube.

"Thanks," she said, putting it on all my lashes.

"Now for the sweep of eyeshadow. What color do you want? A deep purple or medium brown would look great."

"The purple. I want to match haha."

She laughed as she swept on the purple. "All done."

I looked at myself in the mirror. "It's so pretty. Thank you Liss."

"No problem!" she said, leaning down to hug me.

We hugged then I grabbed the brush to comb out my hair.

"I wonder what my hair would look like straightened."

"Oh jeez, Rose. Don't talk like that. Your hair's beautiful curly."

I laughed. "It was only an idea..."

"Want to curl it up a little? It looks kind of flat."

"Alright. My curling iron's in the bathroom under the sink."

"Okay," she said, going to grab it.

"Do you have any plugs by your vanity?"

"Yeah over here on the right side."

She came over and plugged it in, setting the temperature high.

"So what're we going to do today?"

"I'm not sure. Your house is nice and all, but it'd be nice to go somewhere for a few hours."

"I know what you mean. Maybe we could go sit at a park or something. Unless the sun will be too much for you."

"Oh, no. We can sit under a tree if we need to."

"Sounds good."

As she grabbed the curling iron to curl my hair, I got lost in my thoughts of the two of us having babies together.

"We could sit over there?" Liss says, pointing at a bench under some trees nearby.

"That looks good," I said as we headed to the bench.

We sat down and I stretched my legs out.

"How big do you think we'll get, Rose?"

"I hope not too big."

"Me either. It'll be harder to work it off if we're big."

I groaned. "Don't remind me."

She laughed. "But maybe I'll keep some of it. I'm too skinny."

"You are not too skinny."

"Yes I am, especially compared to you. You have all those curves guys go crazy for."

"But you have a wonderful personality, and there's more to love than physical attraction. I mean, Christian liked you before he saw you naked."

She blushed. "True."

I laughed. "But, I will definetaly not be keeping any. I'll need to work out extra hard though, to resume my training and guardian business."

"You're still going to do it after you have your baby?"

"Yes, why?"

"I figured you'd stop for a while. Wait, you don't plan on taking it to an academy do you?"

"No! I mean I am going to take a break from it all, but I do need to continue working out so I'm ready to get right back into schedule and not be behind."

"Good. I'd yell at you if you planned on that."

"Of course not. I'm not the famous Janine, you know."

"Yeah, but you are the famous Rose Hathaway. It'll be hard to keep that name, with a baby."

"I'll more than likely just do work at the Court, nothing off campus."

"What about Dimitri?"

"I don't know yet. We haven't discussed it. The only thing we talk about is getting ready for the baby."

"Yeah. You guys should talk about it soon, though. So you can know what you're going to do and prepare for that, also. And make sure you're both okay with your decisions, and that they fit with one another."

"God, you already sound like a mother, Liss."

She laughed. "I do not."

"You do too! You're telling me what to do and everything," I said laughing.

She was still laughing. "Okay, I do sound like a mother a little. But not that much."

"You will in 9 months," I said smiling.

She groaned, mimicking me from earlier. "Don't remind me."

I playfully smacked her arm. "Not funny."

She smiled. "So what do you want to do today? There's not much we can do, though."

"I know. We should leave the Court and go shopping."

"I don't know..there's really nice shopping places here too. Going off campus will just take a lot of planning and hassle."

"True. It'd probably take a few hours before we actually go. What store do you have in mind?"

"How about the one right beside the store we went to for your bridesmaids gowns?"

"But isn't that place a little formal?"

"A little. But it'll be fun. Besides, we should enjoy our size now before we start to get a belly."

I sighed. "True."

She laughed and we got up, walking towards the outlet with the store.

"How about this one?"

I turned around and looked at Lissa. "Oh my god that looks so good Liss."

"You think?"

"Yeah, it looks really good!"

She blushed. "Thanks. Should I buy it?"

"Do you have anything to go with it?"

"I think so. What do you think will go with it?"

"Hmm..how about a plain black skirt or some black dress pants?"

"Oh I have a bunch of those!"

"Then you'll be good," I said smiling.

She returned my smile. "What're you getting?"

"Ohh, I was thinking of some cute jewelry and a purse."

"What colors?"

"Probably black, silver, white or gold. I don't know yet."

"Oh so just stuff that'll match with everything in your closet?"

"Yepp."

"Good idea. I need to do that. I have all these certain outfits and certain accessories," she said laughing.

I smiled. "Well the Queen has to look her best."

"But you should see all of my jewelry, it's crazy. I even take pictures of possible outfits and what goes with them."

"That's nuts, Liss."

"I know. But at least everything's organized and to where I can find it."

"That's good."

"I should help you with your closet, you know. It'd especially help with having a kid. Knowing where everything is."

"Yeah, that'd probably be really good."

"Yeah, and when you have to hurry and go somewhere for the kid. You're not shuffling through your closet looking for something."

"We should go do that now."

"Really?"

"Yeah! I'm going to need a lot of help, though. You know I've never been so organized ever."

She laughed. "True. Lets go pay for this stuff and go."

"Do you have an idea of how you want your stuff?"

We were standing in mine and Dimitri's closet, looking around at all of my stuff.

"No, not yet."

"Well how about we do blouses, t-shirts, sweaters, skirts, shorts, jeans and dresses?"

"That sounds good. Lets do that."

"Alright. Lets clear out this first foot of the rack and start putting all of your blouses here."

"Okay," I said as I took the clothes, still on their hanger, and laid them on the bed.

I grabbed the few blouses that were on the pile and came back into the closet. Lissa already had some blouses in the area we cleared. I put the blouses in my hands on the rack and helped search for more blouses. We'd found about 10 more and put them with the other ones.

"Okay, now lets clear this foot and find all of your t-shirts."

I sorted out the t-shirts, putting them beside my blouses, and took the rest laying them on my bed. We grabbed all of my t-shirts, which weren't so hard to find. Since I have a lot. We put them with the other t-shirts and moved on to my sweaters. Most of the clothes on my bed were sweaters, so I scooped them up and put them beside my t-shirts. We sorted through the rest of my clothes and got all of the sweaters, putting them where they go.

"Alright. So now we need to find all of your skirts. Do you have any at all?"

"I don't think so," I said scanning my clothes."

"Okay, so we'll skip to your shorts."

We grabbed my few pairs of shorts and put them where they go.

"Now jeans and dress pants."

"Okay," I said as I started grabbing jeans.

We put them beside my shorts and started looking for dress pants.

"I think I only have a few pairs."

"Looks like it," she said as she grabbed a pair.

We put them all together.

"Well, looks like you only have one dress," she said laughing.

"What's so funny?"

"Well I figured you'd have more than just one."

"Being a Guardian, I'm not allowed to wear dresses, just a white top and black dress pants."

"Well that sucks."

"Ehh, I'm not a big fan of dresses."

"True," she said as she sat down on the floor.

"Are we done?"

"Yes, unless you want to do your shoes."

"I can do those by myself."

"Alright. What do you want to do now?"

I looked over at the clock. "We could sleep."

She laughed. "You're always tired."

"I know," I smiled.

"We could take a nap if you'd like."

"You don't have to if you don't want to."

"I do, I'm just kind of hungry."

As soon as she said the word hungry, my stomach rumbled. I laughed.

"Sounds like I am too. We can cook something then take a nap."

"That's cool. Lets do that."

We walked down the stairs and headed for the kitchen.

"What do you want to eat?"

"What do you guys have?"

"I'm not sure, but we could also order something, go somewhere to eat or go to the store for food."

"How about spaghetti?"

"That sounds so good. I wonder if we have the stuff for it."

"I hope."

I looked in the cabinets while Liss looked throught the cabinets.

"Well it looks like you guys have some noodles. Did you find anything?"

"Nope. No sauce or anything."

"We going to go to the store for it?"

"I'm thinking something else," I said as I got my phone out of my pocket.

"What're you thinking?"

"I'm thinking of calling Adrian and seeing if he'll get it for us. I mean he should, since he is a sort of cousin of yours."

She laughed. "True."

I dialed his number and the phone rang. He answered on the 3rd ring.

"Hello?"

"Hey, Adrian!"

"What do you want, Rose?"

"I was wondering if you could get Liss and I some spaghetti sauce and garlic bread. We're hungry and all we have is noodles."

"I don't know Rose..."

"Pleeeease. We're pregnant and Dimitri did say you could watch after me."

He sighed. "All right. Are you going to pay me back?"

"Yes."

"Okay. I'll be there in a little bit. Go ahead and get water boiled for the noodles."

"Okay. Thanks Adrian!"

"You're welcome."

We both hung up.

"So he's going to do it?"

"Yepp. He said he'll be here soon, and to go ahead and get water boiling for the noodles."

"Okay," she said as she filled a pot with water.

She gave it to me and I put it on the stove, turning the heat up.

"So what should we do until he comes?"

"I don't know. Maybe watch tv, even though nothing's on probably."

"We could watch some of a movie."

"That'll work."

We went and turned on the tv, looking for a movie.

"What do you want to watch? We have a bunch of movies."

"I don't care really. What do you want to watch?"

"Anything that sounds good."

She laughed. "We're never going to be able to decide on a movie."

"I know. We might as well just sit and stare at the tv."

We both laughed.

"What if you fall asleep, Rose? You ALWAYS fall asleep when we watch tv."

"I won't."

"I don't believe you."

I laughed. "I won't."

She gave me a look and we sat on the couch, flipping through channels.

"We could watch 30 Rock?"

"That sounds good. Liz always cracks me up."

"Alright," she said as she set the remote down.

I leaned back, watching 30 Rock. I could feel myself nodding off.

Damnit, don't fall asleep Rose. You promised Liss you wouldn't.

But as always, I ignored the little voice in my mind and fell asleep on Lissa, even though I told her twice I wouldn't.

Pleeeease review (:
