Chapter 21
I had to admit I was disappointed in Charleston. I had gotten so use to Boston that this city, was a poor excuse of a city. Not to mention the heat was, well hot. It was mid September and it was still 90 something out and the humidity was terrible. My hair was sticking out in all directions and my t-shirt was clinging to my skin. This was horrible how did these people handle this. In LA it got hot, but the heat was different, it was one I loved, and in Boston summer never last more than a few months. I loved the change in seasons, and knew it would be the one main thing I would miss from that gorgeous place. From research I had learned that it was always hot in Charleston. The seasons never changed, and it snowed on super rare occasion. I was starting to think we should have made some other place our new home. This place was going to suck. Maybe I could convince the other to travel until we found the perfect place, cause Charleston was not it. Not only that I barely understood anyone, their thick southern accents scared me.
Our first stop had been a car dealership because we would all need a way to get around. I had my heart set on a little Mazda Miada, but Dimitri sad it was impractical. I knew he was just saying that because there was no way he would ever fit in that thing. The thought made me laugh, he would look like a giant in a clown car. But I really liked the little car, it seemed to suit me, but one look at Dimitri and I knew I was not going to be getting the little car. Looking at him beside the car I couldn't help but laugh, he looked like a giant near it. He pulled me over to a silver Honda civic and I groaned. I wanted something fast and flashy, it was more me, well more of what I wanted my car to be. The Honda was too simple too plain, too Dimitri. Not that it was a bad car, I just wanted my first car to be amazing, I wanted something I could look at and not scowl at it. That Honda was not what I wanted, everyone had one of those, and it screamed normal, something I had come to admit I was not.
"Maybe you should get it. It looks like something you would drive." He shook his head at me and lead me to the other side of the lot. He smiled at a car and I looked over. Of course, of course Dimitri would want a manly car. The thought of him being even more manly made me laugh. This man dripped with masculinity, and yet he wanted to make sure it showed even more.
"No this is what I am getting. Toyota Tacoma. 4 wheel drive. Half doors. I could move things, and fix things at home with this thing. Don't you think it's nice?" He looked at me and smiled. I knew he liked this truck, and if he got what he wanted I was going to get what I wanted. Or at least a compromise, I knew he just wanted me in a safe car. And as much as I knew the Miada was nice in an accident it would not win, that thought scared me and I re thought wanting it.
"Ok I know the Mazda would never fit you, how about a compromise?" He eyed me and nodded for me to continue. "OK I want a two door fast little car, but I'm willing to get one you fit in. How about a Nissian Altima coupe. Its small yet big giant Dimitri can fit in it, and I can get a flashy color."
"Deal." He pulled me into his arms and 2 hours later we drove off the lot in our new vehicles. I felt like a little kid who had just won the lottery in a toy store. Yea owning a brand new car was that good.
It was weird driving a new car. I had never owned one when we lived in Boston, I had never seen the need. Everything was just a train ride away. But here everything was so far, walking would no longer be an option. And they did not have a local train running. Also had I mentioned how hot it was down here? I was trying to pay attention, because these drivers were insane, but it was hard when I kept thinking about the house. We had yet to see it, Christian and Lissa had picked out cars a lot faster than I had, so they were already home. Lissa had called yelling telling me how much she loved the house I choose. I probably would need a new ear drum, but I was happy because she was happy. She had given a lot up to be part of our little family, and it was the least I could do. She deserved the very best.
Soon enough we were pulling into a cookie cutter neighborhood. We went deeper and deeper and soon the houses started to changed. Each started to hold character, each surprisingly different than the next. After I few more minutes I was about to call Dimitri when I noticed the houses. They looked so much better than the pictures we had seen online. Lissa and Christians house was a one story ranch style home painted in a pale blue hue that complimented the clear blue sky outside perfectly. It had a white porch that wrapped around the front and left side of the house. A cute little swing chair was next to the entrance. That wasn't the best part, it was the beautiful flowers that surrounded the entire property. Roses, lilies, begonias, jasmine, and so many more. It is what made me pick this house for Lissa, she had always said she wanted a garden, so I thought this would be a little present for her. Their house was so cliché that it even had a little white picket fence. It was perfect, it looked like it came straight out of a movie scene, and now I knew why she had been screaming about it.
As much as I loved their house I was dumbfounded by Dimitri and I's house. It was full red brink. A two story family home, with a smaller porch up front. It had a black iron gate surrounding it, and instead of flowers everywhere there were small evergreens. It had reminded me so much of the homes back from Massachusetts. It was perfect. The inside was even better. Everything was pine and wood colored making it look rustic and homey. It even had a fireplace, although I had no idea why. This heat was intense and from what I had looked up it rarely got below freezing. There were 3 bedrooms upstairs, 2 bathrooms, an a study. Downstairs the living room was spacious, the kitchen was gigantic, and the best was the door that led to the backyard. It led to a big deck whose stairs welcomed you to a huge in ground pool. Around the pool again were those small evergreens. It was perfection. It was so, well Dimitri and me. We walked around with smiled on our face. I had never imaged feeling so at home in a place like this. Having Dimitri next to me made it even better. I finally felt like I belonged somewhere. Even if it was in Charleston, South Carolina. I knew as long as I had him, and Christian and Lissa everything would be fine. They were my family. Loyalties run thicker than blood. It was a saying Dimitri had told me and I knew he had been right.
I had thought we were going to need to buy furniture but I should have known better. Lissa had taken it upon herself to help us out, and even though we had close to nothing in common when it came to décor she had hit the nail on the head with our place. Black leather sofas, wood side tables, a wooden bench for a dinning room table nook. Blacks, reds, and wood color filled our home and I loved it. Dimitri was highly impressed himself. She decorated everything except our master bedroom, and I loved her even more for that. It was something Dimitri and I could do together and it would truly be our own. This house was ours, that thought made a smile cross my face. This was what I had been missing all my life, and I never wanted to let it go. It didn't matter where I was, all that mattered was who I was with.
Many people would find it crazy that we after only knowing each other for less than a month would move away and get a home together. It was far from crazy, my feelings for him were unmistakable, and he felt the same way. What we had was special, and Lissa and Christian knew what it was like so that was all that mattered. All we needed was the four of us and we could make it through anything. All of us had had a life filled with rules and regulations that made us stuck and unhappy. We had broken the bonds and were now free. Dimitri broke my thought as he came up to me and wrapped his arms around my waist. It made everything even more so complete.
"So do you like it?" He turned me around so he could look into my eyes. His smile answered my question, but he still answered me.
"I love it. This perfect. This is so surreal." He pulled me into his chest and I took a deep breath. His smell was divine. I could live in that smell, I needed to taste him though, so I pulled him down.
As usual things picked up rather quickly. I lost track of everything and could only think about the feel of his lips on mine. His tongue begged for entrance and I was more than happy to oblige. I let out a soft moan at the taste of him and he held me closer. I grabbed his hair and roughly pushed his mouth even closer to mine, this causing him to let out a moan of his own. I felt him moving me but I had no idea where, I soon found out when the back of my knees hit the bed. He lowered me onto it without ever breaking the kiss. He put most of his weight on me and even though he weighed a lot more than me I barely noticed. My hands found the hem of his shirt and I slipped my hands under it and found myself tracing his muscles. His body was so amazing, so toned, so sexy so, so, so god I couldn't think. His hands soon found the hem of my shirt and he started doing the same, it was like we were lost in each other embrace. I faintly heard a gasp but I thought it was my own, it wasn't until a manly throat clearing that I knew we were no longer alone. Dimitri and I both noticed at the same time and sprung apart.
"Soooooo. I'm sorry to interrupt but I thought we had plans to go grocery shopping you know to make dinner." He looked at us in disgust and mumbled under his breath. "Not that I'm hungry anymore." Lissa giggled and looked between Dimitri and I and her smile increased. She was the fair tale type of person and our love story, according to her was so romantic. I had rolled my eyes when she told me this, but deep inside the thought was amazing. Just like in a fairy tale we had made it through hardships and ended up together regardless of the odds against us.
"You guys are so cute together. Don't mind him he was just mad I wouldn't do this with him at our place" She laughed again and started to walk out as well. Dimitri looked me in the eyes and I knew he found that as funny as I had. We both laughed and I could not help but let myself get lost in the moment.
Soon Dimitri and I followed as we straightened out our clothes and fixed our hair. The trip to the grocery store seemed pointless to me, seeing as I had no idea how to cook, but I soon found myself interested. I walked through the isles through chips, cookies, and any other junk food I could find into the cart. So far Dimitri had not said a word, his eyes told me he wanted to. Every time I threw something in he would shake his head slightly but did not want to say anything. It was because we were equals now, and I was not a child. But this soon stopped when I grabbed a case of soda and then another. He had finally reached his limit.
"Rose, don't you think all this junk food is well bad for you?" He flinched back probably thinking I was going to yell at him but I just laughed.
"I can't believe you let me do this for this long. I thought you would have stopped me after the second bad food item." I laughed some more at the look he gave me, he was confused. Dimitri was a health freak, and the fact that he had let me continue to throw such bad things in the cart was amazing. It only showed me how much he really did care about me, he was not like my father he would let me choose what I wanted to do with my life and support it.
"Wait you did that to try and annoy me?" His expression turned to one of revenge and he lunged at me I screamed but wasn't fast enough. He pinned me between him and the soda display. "I think I should punish you."
"Oh no Mr Russian jailer please don't." Two could play at this game. And not to mention this was turning me on, this shit was kinky. I did not care we were somewhere public, all that matter was this sexy Russian god in front of me. A god that was pressing himself against me and I could feel his not so little friend against my stomach. I loved that I could turn him on without trying. It made me feel powerful. Though he had the same affect on me.
"I think you might like it." He leaned down and kissed my lips with such passion that I lost my breath. I lost track of time and space. This was definitely kinky, and I wanted more. I moaned into the kiss and I felt his hands start to caress my hips and he nudged his own into mine. Definitely kinky.
"Can you guys not do that in public." Once again Christian ruined the moment. Lissa again was standing behind him giggling. Man I loved that girl, she was so passive about everything. Not only that she seemed to enjoy watching us all acting like a family.
"Lissa this isn't funny. She's my sister." He shook his head and started to push his cart away. He looked like a little boy who had just had his lollipop fall on the floor. I laughed but did not push Dimitri away.
"Don't worry about him. You guys once again one upped him. He wanted to make out in produce and I said no." She laughed in his direction and he grumbled.
"Come on Lissa you're going to have to give him some before he moves in with me." We all laughed at this and soon checked out.
Dimitri ended up making dinner for everyone and we hosted it at our place. It was an amazing feeling to call it our place. It was even better when Lissa and Christian showed up, it was our little family. All the love there was amazing. It made me want to cry tears of joy. My life was now perfect. Yes I could wish things be a little different, but given the situation we were in we had done rather well for ourselves. Dimitri had found a way to talk to his family earlier and had explained everything to them. They understood what he was doing and supported him completely. I was also surprised when his mother had insisted on talking to me.
Olena, as she insisted I call her, was an amazing woman. She welcomed me with open arms and could not wait to meet me some day. She had to hang up with me before all his sisters talked to me and drove me crazy as Dimitri said that they would. I went to bed that night with a smile on my face. I was in the arms of the man I cared so much for, the man who had helped me, the man who had given up so much for me. I tried to tell myself it was too soon, but I knew I could not help this feeling. I had not only fallen for Dimitri, I had fallen in love with him. I wanted to tell him but was too scared to do so. Plus, as corny as it sounded I wanted him to tell me first. I was all for woman's rights and woman being able to do the same things as men, but there was just something so traditional about having the man say I love you first. I feel asleep thinking about the day we would say those words, and the day we would finally give ourselves to each other.
So what do you think? Is this the happy ending? Is it all over? How cute are they all? Review!
