A/N: Good morning/afternoon/evening! Are you ready to see who ruined the perfect kiss! I mean he called her Roza! Either way...he's the next part of the lunch...I hope you guys like it :)

"Dimka!" a voice shrilled into the afternoon air. I could tell it was a female, but from Dimitri's horror-ridden reaction, it made me wonder if maybe it was one of sisters or his mom and they'd seen us almost-kissing. Slowly turning around, I saw a beautiful ebony haired woman approaching up. Her face completely lit up and her smile taking up half her face, I don't think her eyes were more than a line. How could she see?

"Oh Dimka!" she gushed happily as she sat on a very frozen and guarded Dimitri, like she was a volcano seconds from blowing. "I can't believe you came!"

When he didn't say or do anything, her smile started to diminish and you actually see her eyes. I know, a friggin' miracle! She had these blue eyes that were pale and vibrant like the sky or ice. Kinda like Christian's eyes. Weird. He's the only person I've seen with eyes that vibrantly light blue.

Having a comatose Dimitri and a psychotic woman across from me was kind of awkward, so I shifted in my seat not sure of what to do. My moving must have awoken Dimitri because he finally spoke.

"Tasha, what are-" he began icily, before his lips were blocked off. Wide eyed, I watched "Tasha" press her lips against his, making his eyes bug out more and return him to his frozen state. Maybe he wasn't public-display-of-affection kind of guy, I don't know, but suddenly I didn't want to know, I just wanted to get the hell out of there. Grabbing my bag, trash, and drink, I got up and threw away my trash, refilled my drink and walked towards the door. I don't Tasha even noticed I was there to begin with, but Dimitri sure as hell forgot I was there cus they were still embraced when I glanced back before walking out.

Grabbing my bag, I pull out my phone and call Mason.. He doesn't pick up. Then I try Lissa. She doesn't pick up. I call her another two times and send a text. Nothing. Seeing as none of my friends are available, my mind decides to bring up the kiss I saw. Why did it irritate me so much? It's not like we're dating, or have kissed either. I just started getting to know the man...I don't even know his age! Ok...so he hinted at it when he said his sister was about 4 years younger but it might as well have been 10, which means he's about 24...not the point. I don't know him to feel jealous or anything. Jealous? I'm not jealous. I'm Rose fucking Hathaway. I've never been jealous. I can go out with anyone. Hell I have a date with Adrian tomorrow. I shouldn't feel jealous about Dimitri. Plus, I have a wedding to plan. I don't have time to be jealous. It was just rude to forget he had company. Yea, that's it. Happy to have that battle figured out, I take in my surroundings. By now I've walked like half a mile or a mile and I don't even know where I'm going to and my feet are killing me. Taking off my heels, I keep walking, trying to remember the name of coffee shop so I could use my phone to get back to it. Right as I remember it, my phone starts vibrating. Thinking it's Lissa, I slide to answer it.

"Thank god you-" I froze when a voice that wasn't Lissa's - or Christian's - cut me off.

"Rose! I've been trying to call you. Where are you?" Dimitri asked, relieve seeping into his voice. I look down at my phone and see it's his number. "Rose?" I hear him say.

"Don't you have a girlfriend to get back to?" I say, coming out sharper than I meant.

He lets out a sigh of frustration and asks me to please tell him where I'm at so he can explain. Part of me doesn't tell him because I'm too hurt to want to hear whatever lame explanation he's going to feed me, and part of me doesn't tell him because I honest to God don't have a single clue to where I'm at. Before I can even say no, he hangs up. Rude. It's not like he was the one watching me liplocking with some other guy. I shuddered just thinking of the scene again. God, why do I let it get to me so much! Shaking my head at myself, I don't look both ways before crossing the street and jump back just as a truck turns the corner and cuts me off. Getting ready to let out all my frustration at this imbecilic driver, I look up to be stunned speechless. It's Dimitri.

"Get in the car Rose," he said, in a tone that left no room for arguing. Oh, we'll see about that.

"No."

"Rose...let me take you back to your car."

"N. O."

"And how do you expect to your car?"

"I have feet. Plus, Mason's on his way." What was a little lie? HIs face went from frustrated with my stubbornnes to guarded when I said Mase's name. Was that disappointment I saw in his eyes?

"Well he can meet you there. Get in the car. Now."

"No. Go back to your girlfriend," I said, the last word drenched with venom, as I turned around to walk back the way I came. I heard him grunt in frustration when I turned around. What I didn't expect was to hear the car door open and slam close, and then to be lifted and carried of his shoulder back to the car. I would have fought, but there was no reason to make the scene bigger than it already was. So with my hands crossed over my chest, I let him put down in the passenger seat. I stayed like that as he got back in his seat and started the car.

"Rose," he began softly as he started driving back the way I had walked. "Tasha isn't my girlfriend-" I scoffed, well this excuse was starting off just swell. "She's not. She's a friend from Russia and we haven't seen each other in a while. I didn't tell her I moved here."

"Well that's some greeting you guys have in Russia," I said, falling back on my sarcasm defense mechanism.

"I swear we're just friends. She's always had feelings for me, but I could never respond to them."

"Well you should really tell her that, because she seems to see things differently." I don't know why I'm being so hypocritcal. Isn't that basically Mason and I but in the opposite sex? I'm pretty sure if we went a long time without seeing each other, that's how he would have greeted me. Actually, aside from giving me a kiss, he does greet me in a very boyfriend way…

"Fine. I believe you."

"Really?" he said, his voice sounding hopeful and his mood upgrading a ton.

"Yes. But you didn't have to explain things to me."

"You left kind of mad. I didn't want you to think I forgot you were there or anything. And then you sounded mad when I picked you up." Great. How do I explain that?

"I wasn't mad at you. Neither Mason or Lissa would pick up and my feet were hurting, and I took it out on you. I'm sorry."

He smiled in response and pulled into the parking lot. I put my heels back on and opened the door, but before I could get out, he grabbed on to my arm asking me to wait. I sat back down as he got out the car and came around to my door.

"Can I see you again? Tomorrow?"

"I can't tomorrow. I have to pick out the bridesmaid dress," I said, trying to buy sometime to come up with an answer. When I saw his face dropped, I realized what I had said. "Oh! I'm not getting married! Lissa is, and I'm the maid of honor, and tomorrow we're picking the dresses." His face lifted in relief and then looked at me expectantly for an answer.

"How about this weekend? I can give you a call or send you a message to decide where," I said, wondering what I was getting myself into.

"Sure," he said with a smile. He helped me out and walked me to the car. When I got to my door he leaned in to me and my heart started racing. Was he really going to try to kiss me again? Nope...he opened the door for me. Trying not to let my disappointment show, I smiled a thank you. And then he kissed me...on my cheek...and with a smile walked back to his truck.

I drove home with a smile.

"Sooo...how did it go, Rose?" Lissa said over the screen.

"Wait. How did what go? What's been going on?" Sydney said confused. The four-way skype call reminding me of high school when we would be skyping to get help with homework and gossiping, usually Lissa and Sydney "helping" and Mia and I gossiping.

"Rose has a lover," Mia said, shimming to add emphasis.

"Actually she has two…" Lissa corrected.

"What?!" Mia and Sydney said, Mia getting up close into the camera. She added, "A three-some? Never thought you were that freaky Rosie."

"Shut up! I didn't have a three-some...I haven't even had a two-some for the love of God," I said, my cheeks blushing. I spent the next like hour filling Sydney in on the whole Adrian floor thing, Sydney and Mia on the whole Dimitri almost-floor thing, and Sydney, Mia and Lissa on the Dimitri Tasha thing. And then I went on to chastise Lissa for not answering her phone.

"Sorry! I was busy!" she said, and we all gave her that look that said "sure you were" and her face flushed. "Plus, aren't you glad I didn't."

"I guess...do you think he does the same thing to Tasha that I do with Mason?"

"I dunno, Rose, he could," Lissa said.

"If he's private like you said, I don't think so. He might have taken her as a date to dances or a friend to go to events with when he didn't want to go alone, but I don't think he took it quite as far as you have with Mason," Sydney said matter-of-factly.

"But she did kissed him like it was the normal thing to do."

"I don't know. Maybe you should ask him," Sydney said.

"Ask him? I just want to forget what I saw."

"I can't believe he took you to McDonald's. I don't think you should see him anymore, focus on Adrian. When are you seeing him again?" Mia said, finally speaking.

"Why shouldn't I see Dimitri again? Maybe he didn't get paid yet, and didn't have a lot of money, and so McDonald was the best choice," I said defensively. "And I'm going out with Adrian tomorrow."

"Wow two dates in two days, a little desperate there, aren't yea Rose?" Lissa said. I shot her a glare, but didn't say anything since Mia cut me off.

"You need to have standards, Rose. You can't just go out with anybody. You can't honestly go out with a guy that takes you out to McDonald's for your first date. You need to go out with someone like Adrian, who will take you somewhere top notch for a first date, I can bet you that much," she said like it was common knowledge. I was about to comment on that when she added, "Didn't you mom ever teach you that?"

I scoffed before responding, "All she taught me was to never get so drunk you have a one night stand and don't have enough inhibitions to remember to use a condom."

"Rose!" Sydney said. She knew my mom and I had a strenuous relationship, but she always chastised me for openly speaking badly about my mom. Having grown up in the Roman Catholic church, she strongly believed in the "Honor Your Father and Mother" mentality us "heathens" don't necessarily follow. Ok, she doesn't think we're heathens but she'd be the first to say we're in need of some major divine intervention.

"Sorry," I mumbled. "Look, Mia, thanks for the advice and I'll take it consideration. But I can't pick one guy over the other without going on a date with both of them, and today wasn't a date with Dimitri ok? I'll let you know when it is." Sighing, I looked at the clock I saw how late it was. "Hey guys, I'm gonna go now ok? I'm in major need of dinner and I thinks It's pizza-" I couldn't help the smile that came along at the thought of dinner. "I'll talk to you guys later ok? I'll see you tomorrow Liss, and it was good to see you again Syd, hopefully I'll see you soon." With a wink and a smile I signed off and went to get dinner.

"So all I've taught you is to never get so drunk you what?" my mother asked rhetorically when I got out my room. I know she heard everything I said because her mind works like that. "Oh right! So drunk you have a one night stand and don't have enough inhibitions to remember to use a condom."

"Mom…" I began, but didn't have a chance to say anything more.

"Aren't you forgetting that I've given you a house to live in, food to eat, clothes to wear, and a school to learn at? I have paid for everything you have needed and wanted. I paid for you to go to St. Vladimir's Academy. I let you have a car and I let you do whatever goddamn pleases you. And about year and a half ago my duties to you ended."

"You let me? You...let...me? Are you freaking kidding me?! You don't let me do shit! My dad is the one that lets me and persuades you to agree or just doesn't pay you much attention. And if that was your way of telling me my days here are numbered? Then don't worry about counting cus I won't be here when you wake up tomorrow!" I turned around and went back to my room and started packing.

A/N: UH OH! Well that's the Janine/Rose energy we're used to. Wonder what's gonna happen next ;) sooo as a special treat next chapter is Dimitri's POV about the date. Don't forget to review :) oh so I need date idea's. I have Adrain and Rose's date planned, but well that's not the only date Rose is going on so any ideas will be helpful. See you next week!
