Holy crap! It didn't take me months to UD! I'm so happy to finally get this chapter up, you've got no clue. I actually wrote this chapter two other times, the first time I did the computer I had it saved on crashed, it's still screwed up so I it on here. Then my daddy deleted it on accident. Finally. Finally! After hours I've gotten this up.

I loved the reviews, thank you so much. And I'll quickly add some answers before you read. My Mason question was only a question. I have not planned anything about any deaths yet. Yet is always my key word because I never know what's to happen until it happens. Also, I know my chapters are short, but everyone's gotta understand I have a two year old. I can't sit on here all the time writing, I usually only have time when he's ignoring me. Which isn't often. And I love how ya'll were thinking ahead on the new location of Rozas' home. I guess you'll have to see exactly how all that works at huh?

Disclaimer: I own nothing and no one.

Christian went and got the doctor whom took only a few minutes to come back into the room with a few papers in hand. They were discharge papers and a few prescriptions. I quickly scribbled my name across, and pocketed the prescriptions. While that was going on I guess Dimitri had left the room because once we were done he had come back into the room with a wheelchair.

He brought it to the right side of my bed and I looked at it with narrowed eyes, trying to figure out a way to get on it without falling again. I started scooting to the edge of the bed about to lower myself carefully onto the chair when I felt someone pick me up, I squewled as they gently place me onto the chair. I looked up to see Dimitri unbending himself, I glared at him.

Can I not do anything alone anymore?

I huffed and crossed my arms, wincing at the pain of the burns. No one really spoke much as we left the room, I felt my heart skip a beat as we crossed the few feet to the door and I squeezed my eyes shut, commanding my heart to start again. Mason had started walking a few feet ahead of Lissa and I; Lissa being whom was pushing my chair. From there it went Chris and Mia behind us and Dimitri behind them.

We walked down a few halls and made a few turns when we finally made it to the elevators. Christian leaned against the wall, pushing the button to call for the elevator as he crossed his arms with a easy smile on his face.

"So you ready for your new home?" He asked.

I laughed, "I'm just excited to get out of this place. I swear one more minute in that bed and I would've died; it's no wonder why my legs gave out earlier."

Lissa smiled as the elevator dinged and we stepped in. "Oh Rose, the beds may not be that comfortable, but that's a bit much now isn't it?" She asked.

I was a bit surprised when everyone fit into the elevator. The wheelchair alone took a good portion of the space, count in the fact that Dimitri and Mason looked like a two tanks on crack; let's just say there wasn't much room left over for Mia, Christian and Lissa. Since Lissa and Mia were so small though they were able to cram into the edges of the small space, leaving the last bit of room to Christian.

Don't get me wrong, it's not that Lissa or Mia were short or anything. They were a good two or three inches taller then me, making them about 5' 9" or 5' 10". They, though, had the kinds of bodies the super models would sell their soul for.

I was about to reply to Lissa when a hand shot out between the doors just before they closed. I thought for a second that person must really want to lose their hand because the door only had a half inch before snapping the hand off. We heard a soft sigh though as the doors re-opened, and a womans' voice say "Thank goodness."

As the door opened back up Dimitri and Mason stepped in front of doors, blocking me from the persons' view. Mia and Lissa stood a bit straighter, pulling me back just a bit farther and Christian stepped a bit closer to us. As the door opened completely I pecked around Dimitri to see a woman two or three years older then me, about 22 or 23. She had midnight black hair that looked dyed and light green eyes. She looked around the cabin, a hand keeping the door open.

"Any room for another?" She asked, sounding hopeful but looking defeated. It was obvious that no one else was going to be able to get in here.

"Sorry," Mason said, voice not sorry but completely business, "We're full."

The girl looked around again, I noticed Dimitri and Mason stiffen just the slightest. She sighed smiling sadly, "Alright well I guess I'll have to catch the next one." She left her hand on the door a moment longer, then let it drop to her side. The door closed and we started moving down.

Everyone visibly relaxed, Lissa let out a sigh. There was a ding as we reached our floor and the doors opened to a semi busy coridor. People chatted as they waited for us to get out so they could make their way to where ever, others walked down the hall. A few had strollers with giggling children, a couple of elderly walked slowly past, a few nurses and a few people in suits.

As we walked down a hallway toward the glass entry doors I looked out the windows that lined the front hall. The sun was bright and shining, a handful of white puffy clouds skattered across the sky and I watched as some birds flew past. The day was fresh and beautiful, a million promises of a new day.

Again I found myself smiling, I couldn't wait to get outside and feel the warm air surround me, the voices of strangers fill the air.

Mia looked at me, she smiled brightly once she seen my own. I'm pretty sure everyone was glad to see I wasn't crawling into some deep dark whole in which I would never return. In honesty, I'm surprised I haven't, I've promised myself though that I wouldn't let this take over my life; that I wouldn't let this person take over my life and I'm demeterined to stick to my promise.

I decided that we've been walking in silence long enough though so I asked Lissa about our concerts and how that was going to be dealt with. I would love to be able to play for them, but my next one was in a few days. I wouldn't be able to hold my guitar, let alone play it.

"Well I had to cancel Shadows' Kiss' appearance of course." She gave me a side ways glance, "No one was happy about it but I'm sure news has spread to why they had to be cancelled. I've told everyone any of Shadows' Kiss' concerts or anything of the same will be held off indefinitaly."

I frowned a bit. I didn't like the thought that our concerts were held off indefinitaly. It sounded so...permant. Again with the contradictions. I know.

"When do you think we'll be able to play again?" I asked, a bit worried about the answer. I'm not exactly sure if I wanted to hear it. I loved singing and I loved playing in front of my fans, there's no way I just couldn't play for them.

She sighed sadly, I looked over to Christian and Mia and they both looked just as sad. "I'm not sure Rose. I'm sorry."

What I seen next completely killed my almost perfect mood from earlier. News cameras, and lots of them. There was a least thirty person outside, some news men and woman, some camera crew, and a handful of hospital security trying to keep them away from the doors. As if it was actually helping, they were completely outnumbered and had no chance against all of the poparizz. Right now everyone was chatting, what seemed excitedly, to get a shot of Rose Hathaway cooked medium rare.

Mason stopped first, then everyone followed suit. Mia and Christian almost ran into Liss and I because they were busy having a conversation about something.

"Hey Liss what's wrong?" Christian asked as he hadn't looked up at the mob waiting outside the doors only twenty feet away.

Lissa sighed, "Chanel 6 news."

"Yeah and every other channel along with them." I added.

Christian looked up at the door and noticed them at the same time they noticed us. "Oh."

Oh shit.

After that things went pretty fast, I heard one of the new cast yell my name. I watched them as they swarmed the doors, trying to get in past the small amount of security. The doors opened and then my chair was turnt around and racing down the halls to the other side of the hospital. I heard many numerous foot falls behind me as my friends, Mason and Dimitri, and the pops came all but running down the hall.

It was ludacris really. We were in a hospital for Christs' sake. What's wrong with people?

After only a few minutes of running down different hallways and passing different people who yelled for us to slow down then a few 'Ommfs''. We made it to the emergency rooms entrance, the chair stopped and I took it as my sign to get out of the chair. I slowly wobbled to my feet, still kind of off balance.

Dimitri grabbed my elbow to steady me. "Can you walk?" He asked quickly.

I seen Mason look behind us, and usher Lissa, Christian and Mia out the doors. I looked at Dimitri and nodded, we were out the doors as fast as I could hobble; though Dimitri held most of my weight as I was still extremely sore. I looked around once we got outside and noticed that Christian, Lissa, Mia and Mason were gone.

"Where did they go?" I asked completely confused, and a whole lot of worried as to where my friends had gone.

"They'll be back in a few seconds, they went to get the cars." Dimitri explained.

I let out a breath I hadn't known I was holding. I realized I had been thinking the worst of the situation. That the killer had gotten them. I also realized how irrational that is. They're with Mason, it's plain daylight out and they were only out of sight for no more then 3 minutes while Dimitri walked me out.

I also realized why it was so important to stay out of that mob of news casters' reach. It wasn't them anyone was worried about, sure they were annoying but that wasn't it. It was who could be in that mob of people.

Two minutes past and that same girl from the elevator past us. Dimitri took the smallest step toward me, I still didn't understand it. I mean, yeah, gotta watch everyone. But this girl was like 5' 5" and probably only a hundred pounds.

I gave Dimitri a look as the girl spotted us and came over. "Trust only who you know." He responded, I rolled my eyes. I can tell how our time together will be already.

"Hey guys. I would've thought you'd have been long gone by now." She said happily once she reached us.

"We came into something." Dimitri said, just as polity. "We'll be leaving anytime now." I looked over to the doors, amazed the pops hadn't figured out we had come to this exit.

She gave a sad look, " Oh yes. I had seen the commition at the other entrance; it's why I had to come this way."

Dimitri looked at her funny, then turned to the street. I seen what had caught his eye, Christians' Candy Apple Red Shelby GT500 with two white racing strips down the middle was pulling up, behind that was a Midnight Black Audi S5. I was guessing that was Mason. "Well it was nice talking, but I'm afraid our rides are here." I said to the woman.

She smiled and nodded, "Yes I've gotta get going as well. Hopefully I can get my car past any news vans that are still in the front."

I laughed, "Sorry about that."

"Not a problem, I understand. It's nothing you can control."

I smiled one last time then turnt to the cars, Dimitri again held my elbow lightly as we walked up to the Shelby. Lissa got out, an apologetic look on her face. "Sorry, those cars were everywhere, plus there were still some reporters out front."

I shook my head, "Don't worry about it."

She lifted the seat and jumped into the back, pulling the it back with her. Dimitri helped me ease my way into the seat, buckling me in. The sent of his aftershave wafted over me, I'm not sure how I hadn't taken notice before. He smelled amazing.

He looked at Christian, "Any problems, call this number. We'll be right behind you but in case anything doesn't seem right, do not hesitate to call." He handed a small folded piece of paper to Christian whom nodded.

"Got it." He was serious, like, really serious. I've almost never seen him actually serious. I had to say I was shocked but there was a voice in the back of my head telling me 'Duh. This is a serious time. Why would he not be?'

"To Tanyas' office then?" Dimitri asked as he shut my door and I opened my window.

"Yeah. We're heading straight there."

"Do you need directions?" Lissa asked, a piece of paper and pen already in her hands to write them down.

Dimitri shook his head, "No I know the way. We'll meet you there." With that he walked to the Audi behind us, jumping into the passenager side. Mason honked once, letting us know they're good to go. Like that we were off, speeding down the streets of Californa. Palm trees, small and big businesses, pedestrians walking around enjoying another beautiful day.

"So Rose." Lissa started slyly, "I was thinking since you won't be able to have anything really set in your new home for a few more days that you could stay with Christian and I. It'll give you time to get a bedset and all of that."

I smiled, she had a point. "You always get your way some how huh?" There was no way I could be mad, plus there was still a part of me that knew I wouldn't be able to move into my cabin right away knowing I had nothing to move into it. "Oh? Who says I won't just have Christian take me to get a few things?" I asked, why not play with her a bit?

"Hey hey. Don't get me stucked into this. You know I love you both but there's no way I'm getting into this one." Christian quickly said before Lissa had a chance to threaten him with no sex or something the like.

She smiled triumphantly. I looked to Mia, smiling sweetly, "Why Mia, isn't that outfit just look amazing on you."

She smiled right back, "Well thank you Rose. I just got this last week, but you should know I'm not about to be sucked into the middle. This is between you two."

Damn. My smile deflated a bit until I thought of something, or really, someone else. "Well I could always ask Dimitri or Mason. I mean, hey, one of them have to be around right? They go where I go. I'll just say I wanna go get some things for the cabin and they'll have to come. It's their job right?" I smiled wickedly.

Lissa gaped, offended that I'd go so far just so I wouldn't have to stay at their house. "Hey! To my defence I don't want to be forced to listen you and this thing over here," I made a weak effort to point to Christian, "getting it on all night like rabbits."

She blushed the deepest red, Mia came to her rescue, "Jealous?" Mia smirked.

She was only kidding, we've always played around like this. But it still always hit a sore spot somewhere in me. I was a bit jealous, I've never had someone actually want me for me. Not for the fame, or for my body.

"Jealous?" I laughed, "I'm sure there's nothing to be jealous of. I've still got my V card and I'm positive that I would be a better lay for Lissa then Christian is."

Christian snorted and Lissas' blush, if possible, turned deeper. But despite that she managed a secret smile, secrets I'd rather be left out of, "Oh I'm not so sure of that Rose, there's this thing he does when he-"

"Ok!" I yelled before she could continue, "That's enough. Oh god, are my ears bleeding?" I asked frantically covering them and looking for nonexistant blood.

Christian snorted again, Mia giggled and Lissa just smirked at me. Her blush slowly leaving her face as we pulled up to Tashas' building. I just shook my head and relaxed back into my seat for the last fleeting seconds of the ride.

"You want me to drop you girls off at the door?" Christian asked looking into the review mirror, "They're right behind us so I'm sure Dimitri will stay with yous while Mason and I park the cars."

I looked at Christian lovingly, "God thank you for not making me walk the distance of the parking lot."

Christian chuckled, looking at me in amazement, "I've never meet a person lazier." He shook his head in mock disbelief.

He pulled to the curb at the front doors and jumped out of the car to come to my side and open the door. He unbuckled me and helped me out. The Audi had stopped right behind us and I seen Dimitri jump out and walk over to us. Christian lifted the seat for Lissa and Mia, helping them out as well.

"Thanks Chris, meet you inside." I said as Mia stepped out.

"Yup, it'll only a take second." He called jumping back into his seat, revving the engine and driving off to find a stop. I rolled my eyes, guys and they're cars.

I turned to the building, and Lissa helped me walk in with Dimitri and Mia trailing behind us.
