A/N- I know, I know, I didn't update yesterday. Here's the sunday update like I promised. I did end up going to that party which was horrible, but that's probably because I couldn't get wasted like everyone else cause I was designated driver. But enough about my shitty social life, here's the story.

I'd like to thank hiseask17, Sarahbelikova99, anaclg, bdfm fan for life, XxSapphireBloodxX, Joana Rodrigues, and julia. for reviewing. I think chapter 7 has gotten the most reviews so far and I thought it was going to be bad :/. Okay now we're going back to Rose POV first. Here is the long awaited, Chapter 8.

Chapter 8: Trouble in the Morning

Rose POV

I woke up the and noticed my back pressed to Dimitri's chest. His arm was still draped around me, pulling and holding me close to him. I leaned on back into him and noticed the warmth of his frame press to the open part of my back. His hot skin against mine felt wonderful. Then I started noticing the soft fabric of his night pants. They too felt good against my bare legs, Dimitri had good taste in clothing, well at least in pajamas. In all of my wiggling to get closer to him, I started to notice a lump between our bodies. My mind hadn't clicked to what that was yet. Dimitri loosened his arms, I guess he was finally starting to wake up. "Good Morning Beautiful," he said groggily.

Oh Dimitri was so sweet. I bet I looked like a mess with my tear-stained cheeks and my bed hair. I turned around and I leaned back and looked at him. His husky heated breath blew against my neck. That's when I started noticing the lump more between my legs. "Mmm..." My cheeks turned blood red as I cooed from leaning into him. I was starting to add things up.

Dimitri shifted me in his arms again. I moved following his movements. My thigh was now pressing against the lump. He kissed me before I could ask him anything about it. I muttered against his mouth as he kissed me. Something about waking up next to him like this really got to me.

My panting was getting stronger as we kept kissing, I swung myself up over him and straddled his waist. When we pulled away I looked in his dark eyes and felt myself get even more worked up over the fact that Dimitri was laying next to me like this. " Good morning." I said as I put my hands on his chest to keep me steady. My body was playfully pinning him down in a lazy morning fashion with my hair fanning out around him. I shifted my hips, almost rubbing against him in a way. There was no hiding his problem now. It was there, pressed against me. I started to move against him a bit.

"Roza..." Dimitri warned. I leaned up and raised my head up to look at him. "Yes?" I asked innocently. I locked eyes with him and felt my insides shift in all the right ways. "Roza I have to go check the weather," Dimitri said with a strained voice. I knew that he was enjoying this, I was too, it made me start to melt slowly.

I leaned in and kissed him again. "Don't leave." I begged as I started getting carried away. I moved against him harder and faster. The multi colored sheets that covered the bed hid my thighs from him. As my body arched up his lap I fully felt what was under me, I used my hands to keep me stable as I moved my hips. Dimitri's face became a weird mixture of bliss and strain. Teasing Dimitri was so much fun. He was so proper and always tried so hard to keep in line. But at this moment I saw the same look in his eye as when he caught me with Jesse. This made me want to push for on, to see what would happen next. I was rare to catch Dimitri without any control.

I kept grinding my hips as I started to kiss down Dimitri's neck, careful not to leave him a hickey. We really did not need to explain that to the guardians. From the way Dimitri was trying to hide his groans. I could tell that he was enjoying it was much as I was. "Hmmmm... Ahhh... Roza… I really do have to..." he tried to say. I cut him off with a kiss. His hips were bucking up now. I felt Dimitri's hands move to my waist and guide them in a rhythm. We were both lost in our own worlds now.

I was so hot right now. We were both acting in instinct, kissing and rubbing against each other, rolling around in the bed. Before I even realized it, Dimitri was leaning over me, pinning me down with his weight. He pulled back, "Roza...we can't..."

Even with him leaned up on me like this our hips were still touching. " I know..." I muttered as my hands rubbed his chest. " We need to stop. " I told him right before leaning up and grabbing the nape of his neck and kissing him hard. I had never kissed Dimitri like this. I knew that we shouldn't, but I didn't care, my hormones were raging too hard to stop now. If he left me this turned on and unfinished it would just be cruel.

As I kissed him I started to cling to him even tighter.I wrapped my arms around the back of his neck, my legs coming up out of the sheets and wrapping around him. My lips only parted from his for small puffs of air.

We rolled over again so that I was straddling his hips once more. Dimitri started pushing my dress up my hips and body. I leaned up when he touched my thighs, his hands were so warm. I started getting nervous as he touched me. My lips were still pressed to his, but my inner virgin was showing. My panties were soaked from the friction between us.

As he pulled my dress off, I wondered if we were about to really go through with this. I was scared. Was my age and his job not that big of a deal anymore? I loved the thought of Dimitri making love to me, but I didn't know if I was ready. I went still and started trembling. Dimitri noticed my hesitation, "Are you okay Roza?" he asked.

I was still shaking in excitement and fear. I looked at him and felt blush move up my cheeks. I looked at him wide eyed. A part of me was fully ready for this, the other side didn't know what to do. I didn't know what to say. Two women? He could have had sex with those women a thousand times each, I didn't know. And here I sat on his lap with his throbbing length under me, not knowing what to do. I leaned in and pressed against him. My lips pressed to his ear."I don't know how to do this..." I muttered in a sheepish way.

Dimitri looked at me, I think he was trying to clear his head so he could respond correctly. "It's okay Roza, we'll take it slow. We won't do anything that you're uncomfortable with." he said. I breathed a sigh of relief. I didn't want to disappoint him. Dimitri went on, kissing my neck and my face to stop me from worrying. It worked great, he should do this when I'm pissed off at a training session.

I leaned into him more and took a deep breathe. His skin was still so warm to me. I never wanted to leave his embrace. I leaned back and nuzzled his neck. " I love you." I said. I was so happy at that moment. At this point I didn't care if all we did was sit there holding each other. Dimitri looked at me a little stunned, like he didn't believe me. When he regained his composure he said "I love you too Roza. So much that it hurts me." I smiled at that and rested my head on his chest. I was so calm and relaxed now. Dimitri loved me and he knew that I loved him too. I had almost fallen back to sleep in his arms when his phone started ringing. I mumbled a complaint and tried to burrow my face into his chest more, ignoring the blaring sound.

Sadly, Dimitri wasn't about to ignore the phone. He nudged me off his chest and sat up on the side of the bed. While he spoke to someone on the phone, I rolled onto my side and just lay there watching him. I started at the plane of his back and thought about our relationship. I couldn't believe that he was mine, he could have anyone and he chose me.

When he finished his phone call, I rolled to my back and pretended I was asleep. Dimitri started rubbing my shoulder. "Roza...Roza love...it's time to get up. I'm going to check the road conditions with the front desk, you should get dressed." I felt him get off the bed and I shot up, staring at him.

I opened my eyes looked at him and blushed. Dimitri still had his problem from this morning.

I laid there in my bra and underwear looking up at him. He was pulling on his shirt. "Are you sure you should go out like that?" I asked him as I sat up and popped my back inward like a cat.

Dimitri looked down and then at me again. Then he blushed. I made the great Dimitri Belikov blush! "I'm going to go take a shower." I said hastily, I laughed. As he gathered his things for his shower I got up off the bed. Dimitri didn't notice me until I was right in front of him. I kneeled down and I pushed my hands up his shirt and watched a jolt run through him. "What's wrong?" I whispered in a low voice. My hands pushing up his shirt more as he stood in front of me. My breathe going out on to his lower midsection. "Roza...what are you doing?" he whispered. It was like Dimitri had lost his being completely. He just stood there, frozen.

I really had no clue what I was doing. In my few times of fooling around with boys I had found out a few things. Plus the fact that American teenagers told each other everything.

I may have not been make love with Dimitri, but I had no problem playing with him. I was responsible for his problem after all. "Do you trust me?"

Dimitri POV

'You. Are. So. Amazing.' I said to Roza between kisses. Rose was just in my panties and I in my boxers. We were rolling back and forth across the bed, our kissing becoming rougher and more animalistic. I was working her breasts, squeezing and tweaking her nipples. She moaned. We pulled apart and Rose started kissing down my body. She started pulling my boxers down to look at my excited member, and that's when I woke up. Wow that was a great dream, I opened my eyes to see that I was still in bed with Roza in my arms. Roza was wiggling in my arms, that's what woke me up from that wonderful dream. I guess she was awake. I loosened my arms a bit, "good morning beautiful." I yawned.

Rose just "Mmm..." to me, I guess she wasn't fully awake herself. I was slowly becoming more aware of my surroundings, and then I realized, I still had a raging hard on from the dream. Trying to hide it, I tried to turn Roza around so I could kiss her and maybe distract both her and myself. She turned towards me and we kissed. Our kisses were getting more and more heated. Rose climbed on top of me and kissed me hard. Maybe this was a bad idea I thought, but it was too late to back up now. Finally we both pulled away, gasping for breath.

Rose was leaning over me, pushing me down in possibly the most seductive position possible. Straddling my waist with her angelic hair spread out. My angel, my Roza. Especially in this position it was getting more and more difficult to ignore my hard on. I took a deep breath, "Roza..." I warned. I needed to take care of this problem on my own.

"Yes?" she asked with a knowing look on her face. She knew exactly what to do to make me lose control. She rubbed herself against me as I tried to sit up, but I couldn't. "Roza I have to go check the weather" I say coming up with a horrible excuse. I didn't want her to move and neither did she. It was a good and bad position to be in.

"Don't leave." Rose pleaded, she knew I couldn't deny her when she said it like that. She kept grinding her hips giving me light kisses down my neck while moving towards my sweet spot. I moaned. "Mmmm...Ahhh...Roza...I really do have to..." She smashed her lips against mine. We started moving against each other. At this rate I wouldn't be able to stop her if she wanted to do anything. My hips were bucking up, reacted to the friction. My hands started moving on their own accord, guiding her hips onto a rhythm that I loved.

We were rolling in passion now. I managed to roll on top of her and suddenly I pulled back. We couldn't be doing this, not yet, it wasn't right even though it felt good. I couldn't risk everything we've worked for to ruin it now. "Roza...we can't..." I whispered. I didn't want to stop and from Roza's eyes I knew she didn't either, but one of us had to pull back.

" I know..." I she murmured as her my hands rubbed my chest, warming me up. Her touch was so soothing."We need to stop." Suddenly Roza moved up and kissed me again. This went against all I ever stood for. Roza said that she understood and yet she went ahead and kissed me anyways. Kissed me with so much passion that I never wanted to let her go. It was amazing. We moved back to the position we were in before. Rose straddling my waist and us kissing like we needed it to breathe. I started to push her dress up her waist, slipping my hands up her dress. She leaned into me while I could feel my erection getting harder and harder. I could feel her wet panties through my pants. Roza was ready I could feel it.

I became lost in my own world. There was just me and Roza in our little bubble. After I got her dress off I noticed that Roza had stopped moving her hips and was shaking. Did she regret what we just did? Was she scared? I immediately stopped, I didn't want to force Rose into something she wasn't ready for. "Are you okay Roza?" I said rubbing her arms now to stop her shaking.

She leaned into me and whispered in my ear, "I don't know how to do this...". She was worried. I knew she was a virgin and I should have had us take it slow. Of course she was scared. She told me earlier that I was the only guy to ever see her almost naked like this. I never should have let it get this far. "It's okay Roza, we'll take it slow. We won't do anything that you're uncomfortable with." I murmured to her softly, kissing her neck and trying to make her relax.

She put her head down to my chest, I could feel her breathing. Taking a deep breath, she said, " I love you." She told me she loves me. She loves me! What did I do to deserve such an amazing woman? I loved her more than anything in the world. Now that she admitted it, there wasn't a chance that I'd choose the Princess over her. I would always keep my Roza safe. "I love you too Roza. So much that it hurts me." I say to her, kissing the top of her head. We lay there in each other's arms relaxed. Unfortunately my phone started ringing.

I didn't want to get up. If I could, I would just let that phone ring and forget about the world and just lay here with Roza. However, I had responsibilities and if I didn't pick up my phone the academy might think that we were in trouble. Gently I nudged Rose off my chest and onto the bed. Sitting up I groaned, I still had that problem. I would need to fix that before we left the room. "Hello..." I almost yawned into the phone.

Before this Roza and I were about to fall asleep again. Alberta's sharp voice snapped me out of my grogginess quickly. "Belikov! Why are you still asleep. You and Rose should be on the road by now if they're clear enough. Did you even check the weather yet?" Alberta barked over the phone. I guess I had lost track of time, I didn't know how far into the morning we were already.

"I'm sorry Alberta we had a late night. It took sometime to find a room, every place we passed seemed to be booked. It was nearly midnight by the time we got settled." I hated lying to Alberta but what could I do. Roza and I did get in late but we were both exhausted from fighting last night and we spent most of the morning making out. I couldn't tell Alberta that.

"Alright Belikov. Just get on the road soon, the moroi are expecting you tonight and will not be happy if you keep them waiting." said Alberta more gently. That was true, some moroi were selfish and would not be happy about waiting for a couple of dhampirs. Plus Alberta might get into some trouble if we didn't show soon. I didn't want her to be any more stressed out than she had to be being the head guardian at the academy.

"Of course. I'll call you with an update when we get on the road." Finishing the phone call turned around to see Roza now on her back with her eyes closed. I guess she was still trying to sleep some more. I nudged her softly on her shoulder. "Roza...Roza love...it's time to get up. I'm going to check the road conditions with the front desk, you should get dressed" I say, pulling a shirt on.

She opened her eyes and stared at my with rosy red cheeks. Sitting up, she asked, "Are you sure you should go out like that?" I looked down as Rose brought up my situation. It really was pretty noticeable, I guess I couldn't leave the room just yet. "I'm going to go take a shower." I said to her, thinking about how cold I could make the shower without freezing. I started to collect my things for my shower. I wanted to make sure that I grabbed all of my clothes before I went in the bathroom so I didn't tempt Rose or myself any more.

All of a sudden, Rose was kneeling right in front of me. She was stroking my hips and thighs, pulling up my shirt to reveal the waistband of my boxers. I sucked in my breath, "Roza...what are you doing?" I say trying not to groan as her fingers ghosted over my hips. Rose continued doing playing with the hem of my shirt, she looked up at me and said, "Do you trust me?"

A/N- Another cliff hanger I know! I'm sorry I wanted to go straight into it but then this chapter would go on forever. There's another part to the next chapter that I didn't want to split up. You'll see tomorrow.

Ciao!
