Rose's POV

The door opened. "Tell me what?"

Rose was at a loss for words. She had assumed that she would have more time to think about what to say before confronting him. She did just find out herself, and didn't know what even she wanted yet.

"I will leave to give you guys a little privacy," said Lissa. She started to walk out the door. "Call me later, okay Rose?"

She nodded to her. She was going to tell Adrian. The sooner the better, right? Lissa walked out and gently shut the door behind her.

"What do you need to tell me, Rose?" Adrian looked concerned. He could obviously tell she had been crying.

It took her a minute before she could respond. "I am pregnant, Adrian."

Adrian just stood there in shock not moving an inch. "Adrian, please say something," Rose begged. She couldn't stand his silence. It is worse than if he just left her. At least that way she would know what he was thinking.

When Adrian finally moved he put his hand on her stomach. "My baby is growing inside you," Adrian confirmed. Rose nodded. "Are you going to keep it?"

"That is the one thing that I am sure of now." And it was. Not keeping this baby was out of the question. "Adrian, I—"

He cut her off. "Rose, I take full responsibility for this. I was the one who pushed you into having sex even though I knew you weren't ready. I know this isn't what you wanted, but I love you, Rose, and I will do anything that you want me to."

Rose pulled Adrian into a big bear hug and let out a sigh of relief. "Oh, Adrian, I thought you were going to leave," she mumbled into his neck.

"I would never, and you know that, Rose." He pulled away. She did know that but she just had to make sure. She noticed Adrian's eyes taking her in. She was wearing a simple pair of denim skinny jeans, a white tank top, and sneakers. Nonetheless, Adrian always seemed to be checking her out. She decided to return the gaze. He was wearing dark denim jeans and a leather coat. His hair was styled in its normal messy state. All the sudden she felt a wave of tiredness hit her. The last 48 hours have finally caught up to her. She stumbled and Adrian caught her before she could hit the floor.

"Come on. Lets get you to sleep," he told her, holding her up.

She nodded and hobbled over to the couch. Adrian helped her lay down. It wasn't long before sleep took over.

Lissa's POV

She sighed, closed the door and walked out. Rose will deal with this. She always deals with her problems. The only thing was, Lissa wasn't sure how she was going to be able to handle it. Rose still wasn't over Dimitri and didn't love Adrian like he loved her. Maybe that could change but not anytime soon. She walked out of the guest building and started walking towards the chapel.

She pulled out her cell phone to call Christian. He answered after two rings. "Hello?" he asked groggily. It sounded like she woke him up.

"Hey. Can you meet me in the chapel?" she asked urgently.

"Yeah. Is everything all right? You sound worried."

"Everything isn't, so please hurry," she begged him.

"I will be there in a flash." Lissa hung up. By now she was at the chapel. She opened the door slowly to make sure no one was there. No one was, so she continued in to the back where she climbed the ladder up into the attic. When she got up she walked over to the window and sat down on one of the big cushions next to it. She pulled out a compact and started fixing her makeup. It wasn't long before Christian showed up.

"Hey, is everything okay?" He sat down next to her, pulling her into his arms and holding her close.

"No. Rose is pregnant," she said sadly.

"Whoa. Someone has been busy. Is it Adrian's?" he asked.

Lissa punched him in the arm. "This is serious!" she yelled.

He held his hands up as if to surrender. "Sorry. Sorry. I was just trying to lighten the mood."

Lissa understood. Everything was very tense. "I just don't know how Rose is going to deal with this. She doesn't really love Adrian, and she definitely isn't over Dimitri, and I don't think that she ever will be. I just don't know how this is going to affect her emotionally, her job, or her graduation. She is supposed to graduate and become my guardian. This could mess everything up and I don't know if she can come back from that," she worried.

"Come on. The only thing that Rose will be upset about is that she wont be able to fight for a few months," he joked.

As much as Lissa didn't want to, she couldn't help but smile a little. "That's true, she will be upset about that, but just the fact that this is Adrian's baby and she is so young could hurt her."

He held her closer. "I know, Love, I know."

She snuggled into him. This was going to be a long nine months.

Adrian's POV

The words hit him like a train moving at a hundred miles per hour: "I am pregnant, Adrian."

That was the last thing that he'd ever expected her to say. They had had sex only once, a little over a month ago while drunk. They had been too drunk to even think about using protection. What were the chances that she would get pregnant after one time? He sat down on a chair next to the couch that Rose was on and put his head in his hands.

What was he going to do? This could either be the worst mistake of his life or the very best. He loved Rose with every thing that he had. The only problem is she doesn't love him back. He knows that she loves him as a friend but nothing more. Even knowing that he would always be there for her and the baby. He may seem like a totally ass but he does care. He is going to be a good father.

"What have I gotten myself into?" he asked himself.

"Adrian, you don't have to do anything," Rose mumbled. He thought she was asleep.

"I thought you were asleep?" he asked her.

"I have a lot on my mind," she replied, "You don't have to do anything Adrian. This was my fault. Queen Bitch isn't going to like this very much."

"Since when have you ever cared about what she thought?" he asked her. She shrugged. "Plus, this is my fault just as much as it is yours. I am going to own up to that and help you. I will love this child as much as any other father. I am looking forward to meeting our little daughter."

"How do you know that it's a girl?"

He laughed. "I don't, but do you really want a little me running around?"

"True, but a little me isn't much better." She laughed too. "And a mix of both of us isn't that good either."

"Our child is going to be very unique and I am looking forward to meeting him or her." He stressed the 'or'. What Rose didn't know though that once the baby developed more he would be able to tell the gender of the child. He had been able to do it with his aunt and her friend. He wasn't so sure, though, that he wanted to know. It would be more fun as a surprise. He knew that this wasn't what either of them wanted or expected. It was one of the worst things that could happen at this moment in time, but he didn't care; he would love the child nonetheless.

"What are you thinking about?" she asked him. She was now propped up on one elbow.

"Whether our baby is going to be a boy or a girl," he told her. That was somewhat true. He didn't want to worry anymore. Now she needed to relax.

"Ughhhhhhhhh . . ." she groaned.

He shot up. "I something wrong? Are you okay?" he asked frantically.

"No, everything is fine. I just realized I won't be able to fight for a while." She groaned again.

He just laughed at her. "Out of all of the things you could be worried about?"

"Yeah, well, you know me . . ." She laughed. That he did, a lot more than she thought . . .

Dimitri

It is cold and dark. He is stuck in blackness. How long has it been? Minutes? Hours? Days? Weeks? Months? Every way he turns there is no way out. The only thing he wants is to get back to his Roza. He knew he was hurting her by not being with her. If only he could find a way back.

What did you think of the Dimitri part? Where do you think he is? Hmmmmm. Sorry that it is kinda short but i wanted to get this out of the way so i can start getting into the good stuff in the next chapter. Please hit that lovely little review button down there. Reviews are always appreciated.
