I left that on the bed and went to Dimitri's room. I knew where it was because Liss was thinking about visiting him. She changed her mind so I knew no one would find out I saw him. I knocked on his door and a few moments later he opened it.
"Rose, please, not now" He told me. "Dimitri, let me in" I said. He opened the door wider to let me in and I went over to sit on his bed. He walked over to a leather chair and sat down. He must have been reading before I came here because there was an open book on the side of his chair. It was one of his corny Western novels he liked to read.
"Rose, why did you come here, Adrian and you need to talk" He told me. "I'm here because I need you, back there, with Adrian, I lost it again. He couldn't help me. Remember in the cabin..." he flinched when I mentioned the cabin "...You promised me you would be there to help me when the darkness took over" I managed to look in his eyes, he looked miserable. Not as miserable as Adrian, but he looked, I don't know. It's hard to explain.
I quickly shifted my eyes towards the floor. "That was then, this is different, you have Adrian and Lissa's charmed pieces of silver" he told me. I looked over to the clock and realised I'd left Adrian waiting. I didn't want to leave but I had to.
I hopped off the bed and headed to the door. I took one last look at Dimitri and left the room. I quickly checked the bond and found that Lissa was sleeping. I went back to Adrian's room and found the door unlocked. I walked in and saw him sitting on the bed, under the covers, staring blankly at the window. I walked over to my bag and found a blue tank and some black slacks. I slipped them on and hopped on the bed next to Adrian. I snuggled up to him to get some warmth and he wrapped his arms around me. "What next?" he asked. "I'm going to call a friend" I answered. In the morning, human schedule this time, I was going to call Sydney. I needed to get those papers on Lissa's father.
I pulled the blanket up a little more and drifted off to sleep. I woke up to find Adrian gone. A quick check of the bond told me he was with Lissa and Christian. He was still trying to teach Lissa how to 'dream walk'. I reluctantly hopped out of the warm covers and slipped some clothes on. I was so hungry, so I decided to slip out of the room and head to the buffet breakfast room.
I walked down the stairs to get there and saw Dimitri sitting at a table by himself. I went and sat down beside him, but as soon as I did, he moved his chair over. This was going to be a long day. We sat like that for a while before I finally got up to get some food. They had everything here, including donuts! I grabbed a couple of donuts and when I went to sit back down Dimitri was gone.
I headed back up to the room with a donut in my hand, headed to Lissa's room, and knocked on the door. "Took you long enough" Christian smiled as he opened the door. Liss had a huge grin on her face, so I quickly checked the bond to see what was going on. She'd learnt how to dream walk. Most moroi were sleeping at this time of day, so Lissa had a go at visiting Mia's dream. It had worked, but for only a short amount of time.
Adrian walked out of the kitchen with a pile of silver in his hands and sat it down on the bed next to Lissa. I must have had a weird look on my face because everyone started laughing. Adrian sat down on a leather chair. I walked over to where he sat and sat on his lap. I chucked my legs over the arm of the chair and finished off the last bite of my donut. Lissa picked up a piece of silver. She was going to start making a healing bracelet, to get rid of the darkness around me.
Christian went and sat next to Lissa and I hopped of Adrian's lap. "Can I borrow your phone" I smiled. Adrian reached into his pocket and handed it to me. I made the phone call I came here to make.
