30 min. later LISSA POV
I couldn't wait to land in Russia. Christian is waiting for us there. When Olena invited Rose and me to stay with her for our two week break I was excited. I immediately told Christian and he told that it was a great idea.
Oh, Yeah. Russia here we come.
I looked over at Rose, who was snuggled into Dimitri. I felt so happy watching them. She's been with me through all of my ups and downs. It may sound corny, but its true. When my parents died when we were 15, she was there. When I met Christian, she was there. When I found out that Christian cheated on me, she was the one to give him 2 broken ribs, black eye, and a broken nose. When Christian and I made up she was there, and she was the one to tell him that if he hurt me again, he'd end up dying at the young age of 24. He has been terrified of her since then.
Without her, I don't know what I'd do. She's been my steady rock since Pre-K, when she called our teacher a fascist bastard. I chuckled at the memory
****** Memory******
I sat down at a table that had two books on it and looked around. I was nervous because this was my first day of "school", in other words pre-k. The teacher, Ms. Kinnian, called us to attention.
"Now students," Ms. Kinnian said, "I want you to get a partner and practice writing each others names."
"Rosemarie Hathaway and Vasilisa Dragomir," she read out. I saw this girl dressed in black walking towards me.
"hey, I'm Rose, are you Vasilisa," she asked.
"Yea, I'm Lissa, that's my name, its short for Vasilisa. Tell me your full name so we can start writing them," I told her.
"My names is Rosemarie Talia Hathaway, and yours," she asked.
"My name is Vasilisa Sabina Rhea Dragomir," I had answered her.
"There's no way I'm writing that long name," she said.
"Me either, your name is pretty though," I told her.
When the teacher passed our table and saw that we weren't working she told us to get to work. Rose got mad and chucked one of the books on the table at the teacher and called her a fascist bastard.
She got a time- out, but she later told me it was worth it.
******End of Memory******
I sighed and looked at Rose. She had fallen asleep in Dimitri's arms. I wish Christian was here so we could cuddle, just like Rose and Dimitri were doing.
Dimitri saw me looking and asked me, "Why aren't you sleeping Princess, it's a 30 hour flight to Russia."
I sighed again and responded, "I can't, I feel like I'm on a sugar without the sugar."
He nodded and turned around again.
I now have 29 something hours to spend. This is going to be fun.
I fell asleep right away. The nightmare started then.
I was sitting in the car, talking with André. My parents were in the front talking and being romantic as always. I looked out the window and saw all the passing cars and scenery.
Suddenly there was a screeching sound and I felt the car start doing a complete 180 degree turn. My mother turned around and yelled, "Put your head between your knees and don't look up." Her face was filled with terror.
I did what she said to do, and seconds later.
Crash!
I felt the impact through my entire body. Mom! Dad! André! was all I could think. But then all I could think and feel was the pain in my body. I was in hell, my own personal hell. I was on fire. I was burning.
I looked around. I felt dazed, this couldn't be happening. I looked at André, and his face was stained with blood. His eyes were empty, with no light in them.
"No, André wake up please I need you I can't lose you. Wake Up," I cried. "Mommy, Daddy, I'm scared. Wake up, please." I was terrified. I couldn't move. I felt numb. There was no more burning.
I saw my life flash through my eyes. I could feel myself slipping away.
There was a giant black spot filling my eyes. Then I saw the white light. My mom, dad, and Andre were already there.
"Come on Lissa, lets go in together, as a family," my mom said. I shook my head.
"I can't leave Rose," I replied.
They nodded in understanding. "Goodbye then Liss. We will be watching over you from where ever we are," my dad said.
"Bye mommy, daddy, and André, I love you all and I'll join you someday," I said.
I could feel somebody shaking me and calling my name.
"Lissa wake up, your having a nightmare," Rose said.
As I started waking up I thought, I haven't had that nightmare for a while now.
I started to cry and Rose's arms tightened around me.
"I had The Nightmare again Rose," I cried. My arms wrapped around her neck. I could feel the other passengers staring at us but I ignored them.
She hummed and said, "Calm down Liss its just a nightmare."
"It was so real though," I told her.
"Are you okay," Dimitri asked me.
I nodded and he let me cry in Rose's arms. Dimitri tried to hide the worry in his eyes, but I could see it.
"I'm fine, really," I snapped. Rose pulled away and looked into my eyes.
"No you're not, Lissa. You may try to play that 'I'm fine' card with him, but I know you better than that," she told me.
I looked down and sighed. She knew me even better than the back of her hand.
"I just need to think in peace, Rose, please," I sighed. She nodded and went back to her seat, but continued to stare at me a few seconds before turning away.
This was going to be the longest airplane ride in history.
So, what did you think? Was it good great? Review and tell me.
On the scene of the accident I could feel every emotion as I wrote it
