Chapter Three
"Okay, I just need to go to one more place..." Lissa said.
"Agh!" I said, this is going to be like the third time she has said that! "Oh come on Lis, can't we just give up!"
"Just one more Rose, I got to see what chairs I want for the wedding." She replied with a happy cheery voice that was starting to annoy me.
I paused and she looked back to me. "Chairs? Seriously?" She nodded slowly, "That's it, I'm not doing this anymore! You're going to have to do this with Mia." I turned around and started walking the other way.
"Rose! Wait!" Lissa shouted running behind me. She grabbed my arm, forcing me to look at her. "Please! Pretty please with a cherry on top!" She was giving me the puppy eyes.
I looked at her for a moment and then sighed, "Fine!"
We started walking back to the shop just next to the shop we came out of when my phone started ringing. I looked at the caller ID but there wasn't any.
"You go on Lis, I'll be in a minute." She looked at me for a minute before nodding and going on in.
I walked up to the street lamp before answering, "Hathaway."
"Hello Kiz." My Dad replied.
I rolled my eyes whist leaning on the lamp. "Hey Dad, what's up."
"Oh I just wanted to see how you were and..."
I laughed, "What is it Dad?"
"I need you to look after Scott."
Scott was my eight year old younger brother. My father – Abe Mazur – was in another relationship with another female Dhampir named Jane before she was murdered. She gave birth – eight months before she died – to my younger half brother. I didn't find out about him until after meeting my father just after I turned 18. At first I wasn't sure about the relationship with my younger, but now I called him every day and when he came to visit, we were like glue.
"Of course Dad, you know I will but why?" I asked.
"Well, let's just say, it's not safe for him anymore." He told me, by here he meant in Turkey.
"Sounds serious, what's going on?" I knew something must of been going on down there for him to be saying that.
"Nothing for you to worry about dear, he will be at Court in the morning around 5ish, is that alright?" He asked.
I smiled, "Yeah it's fine Dad."
"Alright, I'll speak to you soon."
"OK, bye Dad." I said.
"Bye daughter." He hung up then and I hung up too.
I walked into the shop to find Lissa looking at rows of chairs.
"Found anything?" I asked, but not really interested.
"Well... I did see something but I'm not so sure." She turned to me. "Who was that."
"Dad, he was wondering if I could look after Scott for a while." I told her.
She smiled, "God, I love that kid."
I laughed, "He's coming tomorrow morning, so do you might if we pop in for breakfast?"
She shook her head, "No of course not, you know Christian loves Scott."
"Yeah," I said, "I was just as surprised as you were."
Lissa just laughed and shook her head.

After my duty, I ended up flat on my bed, back in my own apartment, tired. I looked to the right too see a picture of me and Scott.
Scott was really smart for his age, more smarter than me. Dad told me that Scott reminded him of his mother. He has dirty blond hair (almost brown) with light brown eyes. In the picture is of me and Scott at his 8th birthday party. I'll never forget that party because that's when Christian had his own power slapped back in his face. Let's just say his favourite tie was no more.
My thoughts then went to Dimitri. His dark, dark eyes. His well built body. I was getting goose bumps about even thinking about him.
That's when my phone rang.
I picked it up, "Hathaway."
"Ugh, hey, it's me..." I knew that sexy accent anywhere.
"Dimitri," I rolled onto my stomach. "Hey."
"Hey, how are you." He asked.
I bit my lip, "I'm good thanks, yourself?"
"Yeah, I'm good." There was a silence. "I was wondering if we could get together."
I smiled, "Yeah, when?"
"Wednesday?"
I nodded, even though he couldn't see it. "Yeah, that would be great. Where and when?"
"When, at 7pm. Where, that's a surprise." He said.
"How can it be a surprise if I'm going to be meeting you there?" I asked.
"Well you won't because I'll be picking you up by your room." He told me.
I laughed, "OK, see you then."
"See you then." He agreed.
That's when I hung up.
