Thank you to bookworm1099, Kris Ivashkov25, biancaneve85, .x, Deanna64 and Lena1997 for the reviews and favourites. It is very much appreciated!
This is just a 'filler' chapter, but it does have some romatic stuff from Rose and Adrian which should keep you entertained! Someone asked me if I was going to chage the rating back to an M. I had no plans to however, if enough people ask me I will do a seperate story which will be one shots of more graphic scenes between Rose and Adrian from the story if people want me to. Just let me know either by reviews or send me a message. If I don't get at least five people ask me I won't be doing them.

The first week of the field experience was the most irritating. There was a 'Strigoi' attack after school had ended on the second day and although I didn't get in the action I thought I'd handled it pretty well...until Stan chastised me for apparently looking 'too eager' to join the fight. How stupid. There was another incident that I had a good telling off for when I completely froze and didn't protect Christian. Along with Dimitri, I'd managed to convince Alberta that it had brought back flashbacks from Spokane and that was why I froze. I didn't tell anyone the real reason was because I'd seen Mason again.
Apart from that, nothing much had happened to me and Eddie. We'd teamed up seeing as Christian and Lissa spent so much time together using the near and far guard technique which I hoped would give us extra marks.
It was finally Sunday, my day off. I had been told by Adrian that he had a surprise planned after Church and I was to meet him at his room in the guest wing. Lissa wanted to know what it was but he was being so through he wouldn't tell her in case she accidently told me through the bond.
Throughout the entire service, Lissa and I speculated about Adrian's surprise. Lissa was torn between day in Paris or romantic getaway to a secluded location. Like that was gonna happen in an afternoon, I'd told her. I think I'd be lucky if I got lunch in the school cafeteria and a hot make out session in a darkened corner of the library. I was so classy, right?
With many different scenarios running through my head, I made my way to Adrian's room. Things had been going really well between us. I'd known when I started dating him, a month ago now, that he had a womanising reputation and that worried me. I knew Adrian would never hurt me but I thought that if we were not having sex he'd either leave me or look for it elsewhere. He hadn't done either and he never pressured me but I could see that sometimes it was hard for him (we had nearly gone all the way a few times but I backed out like the chicken I am). I knew that Adrian was the one I wanted to lose my virginity to but there hadn't been a moment, so far, that I felt was quite right. It sounded stupid but it was important to me and Adrian respected that.
I knocked on Adrian's door and almost immediately he answered, like he was waiting for me.
"Little dhampir." He said, closing the door so I couldn't see in the room. "I need you to do something for me." He pulled out a blindfold and covered my eyes.
"What is going on?" I asked wearily. Don't get me wrong I trusted Adrian but this was out of the ordinary.
"Have a bit of trust, babe." He laughed and started leading me into his room.
"Adrian? I don't like this." I hated surprises enough without all of this.
"Ok, I'm taking the blindfold off." I felt him untie the knot at the back of my head and I gasped.
His room had been transformed from an ordinary plain room to the most romantic setting I had ever seen. He'd removed the sofa, arm chairs and coffee table from in front of the fire place and replaced them with a dining table for two. The table was covered with a pure white tablecloth scattered with a combination of red, pink and white rose petals, with roses in a crystal vase in the middle. I noticed there where to plates that were covered over, but, for once, I was too preoccupied to think about food.
Little candles were dotted around the room, on the table, the mantelpiece even the floor. There was fire crackling in the fire place, adding warmth and extra light to the room. Not only were there flowers on the table there were lilies, tulips, daisies and some flowers I didn't recognise in vases on practically every flat surface. I noticed there were rose petals and flowers on the bed as well.
"Wow." I gasped. I couldn't believe it; this must have taken him ages.
"Do you like it?" he asked.
"Yeah." I replied. I turned to face him. "What's for lunch then?" I laughed and he did as well.
Adrian somehow had got my favourite food, pizza and brownies-not very romantic I know but I thought it was sweet- and we sat and ate not saying much just enjoying being in each other's company. I kind of wished I was better dressed for this instead of being in jeans, t shirt and Converse.
"What's all this in aid of?" I asked when we'd finished and gestured to the room.
"Can't a boyfriend treat his girlfriend without having an ulterior motive?"
I considered that. "No. They can't" I joked; he smiled and looked into my eyes. "You actually did do this out of blue didn't you?" I asked. I was shocked. Adrian struck me as the last person to put thought into anything let alone all this effort on top of that.
"Don't sound so shocked. I do actually think of others once in a while." He smirked. I went around to his side of the table, sat on his lap and kissed him deeply.
I pulled away after a while to straddle his waist, wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed him again. His hands rested on my hips, rubbing up and down slightly. His tongue ran along my bottom lip and I opened my mouth, letting him in. I don't know how long we sat like that but eventually he picked me up and took me to his bed.
"I don't want to have sex yet, Adrian." I told him after a while, most of our clothes lay scattered on the floor expect for our underwear.
He lifted his head up and stared at me. I could see the desire in his eyes but also the fierce love I knew he felt for me, although he'd never said it. "Ok, Rose. Do you want to stop?" he asked cupping my face.
"Yeah." I said truthfully. "But I want to stay." I kissed him again.
He moved off me, pulling me up with him. We sat against the headboard, wrapped in each other's arms and watched a movie. That was another good thing about Adrian. He'd sit through any movie I picked from Moulin Rouge (what we were watching now), to Beauty and the Beast and he'd never complain. He would however do what he's doing now and try and distract me by playing with my hair and planting kisses on my neck. And it always worked.
"I am starving." I said after pulling away from another make out session- I'd lost count after number four.
"You're always starving." He laughed. "Shall we go to dinner?" he pulled me up from the bed, grabbing our clothes. We got dressed and walked to dinner hand in hand.
Yeah, I had the best boyfriend ever. Today definitely made my week better.
Sooooooooooooo, what do you think? Review and let me know! Also let me know about the seperate Rose/Adrian one shots!
