Everyone is sad to her about how Lissa is treated.

Half way through this chapter it's reated M.

Smile - 24

I stared at a tear streaked Christian as I hugged him in an embrace after I told him, and everyone else about my dream. We stopped at a hotel, even though we said we weren't going to, after I told Dimitri about Lissa. And the first thing that Christian did was fall on his knees to the floor and start crying. And I understood how he felt. I did the same thing after I realized that the dream had to be real.

Adrian was shocked that Lissa actually figured out of to dream-walk, but in a more realistic way. Apparently Lissa and Adrian had been training together behind everyone's backs so they could surprise everyone about what they learned. That's why nobody knew about what Adrian learned to do, daydream walk, or whatever, I still haven't found out what to call it, nor has Adrian or anyone else. But apparently Adrian had also tried to do what Lissa learned, but couldn't get the hang of it. But not all spirit users do the same things.

"I know we all expected this, it's just sad to actually hear about it," Christian muttered. "It's even sadder to hear that you saw it happen, Rose." He squeezed my hand and looked up at me.

"I know," I whispered. "It was horrible. But I didn't actually see him change her. Just bite her. But it was still so horrible." I closed my eyes as I felt some tears build up, recalling Robert biting Lissa.

"It's okay to cry Little Dhampir," Adrian whispered in my ear as he came up behind me and hugged me. "You don't always have to be so brave for everyone. We know how you feel. We all miss her."

"I know. But I've known her longer than all of you," I said loudly, trying to control not to yell. It's true; I had known her longer than anyone; ever since we were little. "She's like my sister. We've been together forever. And I planned on it to stay that way." I squeezed my nails into my palm, letting a tear slid down my cheek.

"I know," Adrian whispered in my ear as he squeezed me. "I know Little Dhampir. But we'll get her back, I promise. No matter what." He squeezed me again and then let me go as Dimitri came and pulled me to him, pulling me away from Christian as Mia and Eddie sat beside him in the floor. I turned my face in his chest and finally let the tears fall, soaking his shirt. He patted my hair as I started shaking while crying, not being able to hold it in anymore.

"It's okay Roza," Dimitri mumbled. "Just let it all out." And that's just what I intended to do. I held my hands to my face, not really wanting everyone to see big bad Rose all messed up. I guess Dimitri understood that, because he picked me up and carried me to our room. "It's getting late. Maybe you should go back to sleep."

"I don't think I want to," I said as I sat on the bed, trying to wipe away my tears, but more and more kept falling down. "All I'd see would be Lissa's face with pain as Robert bites her. I don't think I can handle it again." I stopped trying to wipe away my tears and just fell face down on the bed. "We need to get to her. And fast," I mumbled against the blankets. He didn't say anything, giving me time to think. And when I turned around, he wasn't even there. My mother was instead.

"How are you doing honey?" she asked.

"Like you care?" I mumbled as I laid back down, my face against a pillow.

"I do Rose. I know you probably think I don't, but I do. I always have, and I always will." Just hearing that made more tears fall. I jumped on her, hugging her to me and crying on her shoulder.

"I'm sorry, mom. It's just so hard. And I thought it was hard when I thought I lost Dimitri. But this is worst. I've known her forever. She's like a sister I never had." Janine hugged me closer, rubbing my back as I let it all out. I'm never like this; I never let anyone see me like this. Only Dimitri, but hardly that. It left me feeling defenseless. And I hated that. "I need her back mom. I miss her so much. I feel lost without her. And you know how I hate admitting it."

"I know sweet heart. I know how you feel," she whispered. "I was just like you when I was your age. When I was pregnant with you, and Abe left me, I felt just like this. Lonely and helpless. Lost. I know how it feels." I hugged her harder, just now realizing that she was right. I never thought about it before. I had totally forgotten that Abe left her by herself, when she was pregnant nonetheless.

"I'm sorry mom." More and more tears streamed down my face as I felt sorry for my mother. Which just made me mad at Abe. But at least he came back for her. For us.

"It'll all be okay eventually. We'll find her. You now know who the leader is, that's good?"

"Yeah. And I'm totally going to rip him to shreds. He helped us when we went to save Dimitri. And now he turned his back on us. Why?"

"I have no idea. But we'll find out soon enough." She pulled me back, looking me in the eyes. "I promise." She hugged me again as someone else came and wrapped their arms around us. "It's girl time you idiot," Janine laughed, trying to shoo the person away.

"Sorry, I just thought I'd come over and help," I heard Abe's soft voice whisper. Then I fell to the floor laughing.

"Stop it, stop it!" I yelled, so not in the mood for laughing and smiling and all that. I kicked my feet in the air, trying to kick him in the face, but he kept moving, tickling me all over. "Damn you," I shouted right as I kicked his leg back, making him fall on top of me. "Help me," I shouted at Dimitri as he ran in the door. "Get him off of me." I tried to push him off, but he kept falling back on me.

Dimitri finally came over and grabbed Abe off of me, just to take over the tickling. "That's not fair." I tried to roll over to get away from him, but he sat on top of me, locking me in place. "Stop!" I shouted, hitting him square in the jaw, but not too hard to actually hurt him, too much.

"Ouch," he groaned, holding his jaw with his hand. "Why'd you do that?"

"I told you to stop." I grabbed his neck and pulled him to me, kissing him on the lips and then the jaw. "All better?"

"Much. You?"

"Yeah," I answered, which was actually true. "Thanks, I guess. But can you get off of me now?" He got up, grabbing my hand along the way and pulling me up. "Thanks," I said as I dusted myself off and straightened my clothes. "That was so not fair."

"I thought it was," Abe said as he grinned at me and then hugged me. "I just wanted to see you smile." I ginned real big at him, showing all my teeth.

"Better?"

"Much." He smiled back and walked out the door with my mom, but not before asking if we needed anything.

"Nope, unless you want to get me some chocolate ice cream, I think that'll help me a bunch," I said, getting another smile from Abe.

"Sure, anything for you. Anything else?" We shook our heads and then he walked out the door, leaving me and Dimitri by ourselves.

"Ice cream?" Dimitri asked me, raising an eyebrow.

"Yeah, I fill like something cold. So what? Is there something wrong with that?"

"No, nothing," Dimitri grinned. "But you know you're going to have to share with me?"

"No I don't. You should have gotten your own."

"I do have my own dessert," he said, pulling me to him. "It's not ice cream though. It's way better, and sweeter."

"Aww," I smiled. "If you wanted a kiss all you had to do was do it." I pushed him on the bed and crawled on top of him. "But now I don't know if I want you to get it." I put my face down to his, almost to his lips as he pushed his head up, trying to kiss me, when I pulled back, laughing. "I told you."

"I'll get what I want dear Roza," he said as he rolled us over and planted a big kiss on me. "I love you Roza," he said as he rubbed my stomach. "Forever!"

I put my hands on his, and looked into his shining eyes, smiling real big. "Forever! With our loving family," I said as I looked at our locked hands."

"Yea, only eight more months to go." I looked back in his eyes, a little scared this time. "What's wrong Roza?"

"I don't know if I'm ready Dimitri. To be a mom and all. What if the kid doesn't like me? What if I can't raise it right? I never even had parents to take care of me. I don't know what to do."

"We're in this together," he said as he squeezed my hand. "Forever and always. No matter what. We'll help each other. Roza, you're not the only one scared. I'm scared too, shitless. I did have parents, but they had loads of things to do, so I didn't see them as much as I would have liked. But just remember, I'm always here, right by your side." I looked back in his eyes, knowing that he meant all of it a hundred percent.

"I love you Dimitri," I said as he leaned down and kissed me passionately again, trailing his hands under my shirt to my breasts, which he squeezed as I squeezed his ass, making him chuckle.

"I think I know where this is headed," I smiled as I pulled my shirt off for him. I pulled him back to me, kissing him harder as he fought to get rid of his shirt too. He chuckled again as he threw his shirt off for me, and then grabbed my waist and pulled me to him as we sat up and he undid my bra. I slid my hands to his jeans, unzipping them as he freed my breasts and stuck one in his mouth, making me stop what I was doing and moan. He wrapped his arms around me as he bit my nipple, sending a shiver through me.

He laid me back down on the bed as he undid his pants and then mine, pulling them both off before climbing back on me, licking my stomach, and up to my neck, nibbling my earlobe. "Roza," he whispered, with his hands on my hips, with his thumbs going under my thong. He kissed my neck softly, making me shiver again as he slid one of his hands to my crotch, feeling me all wet.

I moaned as he started rubbing my clit and softly nipped at my neck. "Roza, my love," Dimitri whispered when I stroked his hard-on. I slid a hand under his boxers and fondled his balls, which had him grind as me. He stuck a finger in my sex, making me grip his penis and moan. It didn't take him long to make me climax, it never did. He just knows me that well.

After a while, I guess he got tired of the clothing we had left on, because he got up and kicked his boxers off and tossed my thong on the floor with them. "I should lock the door, shouldn't I?" he grinned.

"I think that'll be a good idea," I grinned back. He ran to the door and locked it and put the chain in place. Then looked at me with bright eyes. I smiled back at him as he ran back to the bed and jumped on me, throwing the covers over us.

"My dear Roza," he mumbled. "I love you so much."

"And I you Dimitri," I said back as I kissed him passionately. He pushed against me, pushing his erection to my thigh. I ran my nails down his back and to his cock, feeling it throb in my hand. I stroked him as he fondled my breasts, pinching each nipple and sucking on them after.

I moved my hand faster and faster on his cock, making him moan out loud.

"Roza," he groaned as he pulled away from me. "I need you." He grabbed my hand and thrust them above my head, pinning me down. "I need you," he repeated softer as he positioned the head of his cock at my entrance. "I need you," he whispered as he thrust inside me, making me moan and arch my back. I dug my nails into his back again, screaming in pleasure as he slammed into me over and over again.

Dimitri arched his back as I kept digging my nails into him, moaning out my name in Russian over and over again, "Roza!" I slid my hands down his back, noticing my hands felt all wet. I looked at one of my hands and noticed it was blood.

"Dimitri," I muttered. "Dimitri," I said louder.

"Mmm?" he moaned, not even realizing that I made him bleed.

"I'm sorry," I whispered loud enough for him to hear.

"For what?" he asked as he stopped thrusting and caressed my cheeks. I held my hands out to him, letting him see his blood on my hands.

"I'm sorry," I repeated. "I didn't mean to."

"It's okay Roza. I know you didn't. I didn't even feel anything."

"Are you saying I'm weak?"

"Never," he chuckled. "You are far from weak." He kissed me and held my hands in his, not even caring about the blood. "I love you."

"I love you," I mumbled against his lips as I wrapped my legs around him and pushed him into hard. He started thrusting again, sliding his hand up and down my sides. When my walls tightened, getting ready to go over the edge, he grabbed my ass and thrust it to him to match his thrusts. I pulled his hair as I screamed out in pleasure as I climaxed, feeling him climax right after me, moaning along me. "I love you Dimitri," I said again as he pulled out of me and kissed my stomach, fingering my clit slowly.

"I love you too Roza," he said as he slowly made his way down to my sex. He licked my clit, making me squirm. He grabbed my legs and wrapped them around his head as he ate me out, licking all my juice up.

"You know it's not going to stay that way," I told him as he cleaned up all my juice. "Not if you keep it up."

"That's my plan," he replied as he thrust his tongue in me and made me climax again, having him lick it all up again. He then kissed his way back up to me, putting soft little kisses all over my stomach, making me giggle. I wrapped my arms around his neck and pushed him on his back, with lying on his chest.

"I love you," I said for the hundredth time.

"I love you too," he replied as he pulled the covers over us again and pulled me tight to him, leaving a huge grin on my face as we fell asleep.

I hoped you enjoyed.
