Hello Readers, here's chapter Thirty. Now this chapter is going to be short but very emotional. Also I know I said I would will put up the Prequel sometime last chapter, but I need a bit more time on this story before I start writing the Prequel. Don't worry DCR Fans! This story will continue while the Prequel is up. I'm nowhere near finished.

Enjoy!

Chapter Thirty:

One Week Later...

It has been a week since I found out my mother wasn't my birth mother. That I have a twin brother. That they're both dead. And basically my whole life has been a total lie. I've kept to my word and had no contact with Abe, I mean, how can I talk to him after everything. If he wasn't that stupid to get involved with Peterson, both my birth mother - Quinn - and my twin brother would be alive. Richard's family would be alive. I knew in my gut it wasn't all his fault, but...the angry and depressed side got the best of me. I couldn't forgive him, not for this.

I've talked to Janine a few times, but mostly they only lasted two minutes as I felt awkard talking to the woman who lied to me.

I managed to tell Dimitri what happened and he has been really supportive, even though I haven't been talking much or always going out to clear my head. Everyone in Court basically knew as someone overheard me talking to Adrian about it. So wherever I went, everyone always stared at me like I was some kind of freak.

I hadn't really talked to anyone since it happened really, like with Janine, the talk would only last two minutes.

And this morning was no different.

I got up around fifteen to six, still unable to sleep. Dimitri's strong arms were wrapped around me, like always. Slowly, I got out of his grip and got changed into some gym where. All week since I haven't been able to get some sleep, I've been at the gym or on the running track.

As I was about to head out when a voice stopped me.

"You can't keep ignoring your feelings Roza." Dimitri's voice was laced with worry and a bit of anger. I paused as my hand laid on top of the handle. "I know your trying to bury them but they won't stay there for long."

I swallowed before turning to Dimitri, my hand still on the handle. Dimitri was of course shirtless and was sat up, it was quite hard not to stare at that god body of his. "I'm fine."

He shook his head, "No you not, saying that you're fine only means that your not fine."

"Dimitri," I started, "just because I haven't broke down or actually talked about it doesn't mean I'm not fine."

He did that cool one eyebrow thing. "Talk about what?"

I gave him a look, "Look, I can't do this now. I'll see you later."

Before he could say anything else, I walked out of the room and slammed the door behind me, forgetting for a moment about the youngers asleep in the other rooms.

I slowly walked downstairs and lightly opened and closed the door behind me. Like I did for the last week.

"Rose," Janine said as we met halfway towards the gym.

I gave her a slight nod with a serious face. "Janine. How are you?" My voice sounded so formal, so not me.

Her face showed disappointment. "I'm fine thanks, I'm leaving next week, so I was wondering if we could...talk."

I sorted and contiuned walking, "Talk about what, Aunt Janine?"

She caught up with me, "About everything. Your father. Your mother. Your twin brother."

I snapped my head towards her, "You have no right to talk about them. And neither does Abe."

"Rose-"

"Why don't you just do me a fucking favour and get lost."

Janine stopped walking, with sadness and hurt written all over her face and you know what...

I felt nothing!

I've been feeling nothing for the whole week. I don't feel sad. Or angry. Or hurt in someway. I just feel numb.

So I just left her there, without a care in the world.

When I finally got to the gym - empty of course - I dropped my bag on the floor and connected my iPod to the laptop there, putting on City by Hollywood Undead.

Let's watch it burn

Let's watch it burn

Let's watch this city burn the world

Instead of putting on gloves, I just went straight to the dummy in the corner of the gym.

My body doused in ash with two empty cans of gas

The only evidence they have is a police sketch of my mask

And it's hard at times to ask if you can save my heart for last

And it's hard to face the facts when the darkness fades to black

Staring blanky at the dummy, I somehow manged to hit it.

Then again...

Again...

And again...

Let's watch this city burn
From the skylights on top of the world
'Til there's nothing left of her
Let's watch this city burn the world

And then I started kicking it. As I was doing this, flashbacks came into my mind. When Janine left me at the academy. Meeting Lissa. Janine not coming to see me. Asking stupid questions about my father. Spending time with Lissa's family. The car crash…

Suddenly, I was being dragged back by the waist. All I could see was water and blood. I screamed, and yelled stuff to be honest I didn't even know what I was yelling as I felt like the whole world was coming to an end. It was then I realised the water wasn't water, it was tears. The tears clouded my eyes and my continuing screams blocked my eyes. The blood - which I manged to see - was coming from my hands, that were covered with cuts.

Somehow, calming down, I turned to see Lissa and Janine at the doorway to the gym. Both looking worried and upset.

Wait, if they were there, then who the hell was pulling me back?

I looked up then to see the most beautiful dark, dark deep chocolate brown eyes. Dimitri. His eyes filled with worry and...love.

That's when I cracked.

I broke down, resting my head on his chest and falling to the ground, Dimitri following my movements.

Holding onto me and never letting go.

And I continued to cry.

So that's the end of this chapter people, I'll try and release the next chapter soon. Also I'm thinking of after the next chapter, I might put up the Prequel then. Depend on how many reviews I get this week ;)

Anyways, I hope you guys enjoyed this chapter and I'll bring the next one up soon! :D
