Yes, I know these are short, and I'm sorry. But short is better than nothing, right? Anyways, I don't own Vampire Academy, at all.
Dimitri got back and started the car. I took one of my hands off of the girl and grabbed his outstretched hand. After sharing a grim smile, we headed to court.
The house was about an hour away from court. The little girl had passed out about halfway there, obviously exhausted. I pulled her back a little bit so her arms were no longer around my neck, her head was on my shoulder, and I could see her face. She was pretty for a little girl. She had beautiful, red hair. And when I saw her eyes, they looked blue.
I think I started staring off into space because I didn't realize we were at court until I heard Dimitri talking to the guardian at the gate. The guardian gave a quick glance in the car, his eyes lingering on the girl. He didn't look surprised, so I guess quite a few people already knew about her.
Dimitri drove to the parking garage, and after he turned the car off, he opened the door for me. After I got out with the girl, I started walking to guardian headquarters.
I walked a few steps until I realized I didn't hear the car door shut. Turning around, I saw Dimitri staring at me, hand still on the door, with a sort of awed, yet sad, expression. As soon as I looked at him, he tried to hide it under his guardian mask.
He closed the door and walked to me, using his hand to slightly guide me to where we were heading. I could imagine what he felt. I often felt the same way when he was with his nieces and nephews, getting along with them so well. I would feel awe at the beautiful sight, but then sadness because I could never be able to give that to him. Damn infertility.
As if he was sensing my thoughts, he put his hand on the small of my back giving a small rub, assuring me it will be alright. I have him a small smile before walking into the entrance of guardian headquarters. Hans was already there, waiting for us.
"Is this her?" He asked, gesturing to the girl I was holding.
"Yes. She's still shaken up, though," I said, knowing exactly what he wanted to do.
"Anyone would be," Hans said grimly before taking the sleeping girl from my arms and telling us to get some sleep, seeing as it was the middle of night for Moroi. I didn't like leaving her there, , I guess she's not alone, but still. She doesn't know anyone here, she barely knows me.
When I didn't move, Dimitri guessed at what's on my mind. "She'll be fine, don't worry," he said, getting it right. He grabbed my hand, "Let's go get some sleep." With one more look at the direction Hans went, I let Dimitri lead me to our apartment.
Without saying much after that, we got ready for bed. Dimitri held me and was out like a light, but it took me awhile to finally fall asleep. My last thought before it was all dreams was, "I'll see her tomorrow."
Thank you for reviewing. I didn't think people would actually like this story, but I guess they do. If you were wondering about me updating, my plan is every weekend, but don't hold me to that. You never know what might come up. But I am trying to write a good story and update it in a timely manner.
Again, ideas are welcome and please let me know what you think.
