I felt as though my entire life was falling apart. Dimitri gone, Victor out in the open. I wanted to lie down just where I was and forget about life, my life. But I couldn't. I wasn't Moroi, I wasn't a human. I wasn't taught to lay low. I wanted to but I knew I couldn't let somebody else take care of it. I was taught to fight back.
A voice interrupted my thoughts. Lissa's shock and fear flooded through me like rapids. She was scared, really scared.
"Victor's out of jail?!"
Her voice was almost hysterical in fear.
"Oh god, oh god!"
Even if I didn't have the bond I would have know what she was feeling. Her face betrayed it all.
Adrian confirmed her worst fear. "The queen felt so bad about putting royal in prison that she went back on her word."
"Are you serious? That can't be it!"
I almost sounded crazy.
Adrian nodded, "That's what I thought but that's what she told me.."
I heard and felt such fear that I almost had to sit down. Once again I had to pretend to be strong for Lissa.
"Lissa it's okay, I'm sure he wouldn't dream coming here and even if he did how would he get into the academy? Kiorvna wouldn't even think of letting him in."
I took a deep breath trying not to start crying. Half of me knew that when I reassured Lissa I was reassuring myself as well. For some reason it wasn't working today. I think Lissa was thinking the same thing because she didn't look to convinced.
"It's going to be okay, if he takes one step near you, I'll kick his ass all the way to Russia."
She looked a little bit relived and Adrian found this highly amusing.
"Watch out everybody, Rose Hathaway is here to play!"
I shot him my dirtiest look.
"Rose I hate to leave you on your own but I promised Christian I'd meet him soon and…"
I sighed," It's fine, go have fun."
I had really wanted to tell her about my horrible life but I guess it was going to have to wait. She had her own problems. Dimitri's words returned to me:
"She's stronger than you think," he had said," And she would go out of her way to help you."
I wanted to tell her now. I wanted to spill my soul and cry on her shoulder. She was leaving though. I may have been hurt by Dimitri in a way I never had but his words still rang true.
"Wait, Lissa."
She turned around, still scared from the thought of Victor free.
"What?"
I felt her need to talk to Christian, to cry on his shoulder. I was still her best friend but they had an unbreakable bond that even I was miniscule to. I understood that right now she needed somebody to comfort her not the other way around. Her feelings and needs were more important than mine. They come first. So I let her go.
"Have fun, and don't worry."
I tried my best to smile once more.
As I walk back to my dorm I tried to think about anything but Dimitri. Didn't work as well as I had planned. I began remembering how caring and perfect he was. I missed him so much. I felt like my heart had already been torn apart from Mason dying. Like he was the stiches holding it together, without it my heart fell apart.
I was to busy thinking about my broken anatomy to notice that I walked straight into a guy. A new guy.
I looked up to apologize but instead I found myself staring into some chocolaty brown eyes. Friendly eyes.
"I'm sorry, are you okay? I feel terrible."
"Ya, I'm fine."
"Oh, okay…"
I could see the Dhampir taking me in.
"I'm Justin by the way..I just transferred here from Romania."
"Justin? Very Romanian"
He laughed," I have moved all around ever since my mom got killed."
"I'm sorry."
The difference between him and other guys was he wasn't staring at my body and he wasn't even flirting with me. I wasn't ready for that quite yet. Instead he was acting just like Eddie. Friendly but not to friendly.
He gave me a smile," It's fine, so what's your name?"
I took in a deep breath looking at him, "Rose, Rose Hathaway."
I hoped with all my heart that he wasn't a really good actor because the last thing I needed was another guy to break my heart in love.
AN: I want rose to hav a new friend :)
