When to go watch Eclipse yesterday! It was so awesome! I loved it and cried and got mad and a whole lot of other things! It's a MUST WATCH movie. So far, this movie is my favorite from the Saga.

You must be warned.

This chapter contains a very M Lemon. My cousin is a real huge fun from this story and she helped me write this chapter so I thank her. Don't blame me if you are suddenly nauseated; I warned you beforehand. Other than that, hope you enjoy. :)

Vampire Academy is all owned by Richelle Mead. I just look to fool around with this world.

A week before graduation . . .

The day had started out so perfect, why did it have to change?

It all started when I was walking to the administrative office, looking for a clue as to where Dimitri was. I had looked all around campus and the office was kind of my last resort. He wasn't at morning practice, which surprised me because ever since we came back from the trip, he has been near me non-stop. And even though I hated to admit it, he had grown on me. I needed him in my life. He was my teacher of life. He like the snuggle bear a kid needs at night. Adrian was more like the oxygen we needed to breathe in order to live.

A huge smile was spread on my face because Adrian and I had a date later tonight. He was always trying to treat me like a princess and he did complete his task, quite well, I must say. Stars were shinning, ready to vanish as the sun was dawning.

Just then, I bumped into Alberta. I could see the sun was about to rise.

They looked liked they had been through hell. Their short hair was all over the place. Scratches and blood covered them. And they were both carrying two stakes in both hands. That only meant one thing: Strigoi. I knew where Dimitri had been. He had been battling with the Undead Dead.

"What the hell happened?" I was instantly alert.

"Rose, there is Strigoi on campus, but we chased some of them away. I trust you with this information and trust that you won't go around causing unnecessary disturbance by telling everyone that there are some Strigoi on campus. But this is something serious."

I nodded. "What do you want me to do?"

"I want you to go check around campus to see if there any people wandering around." My mother said, business mode at full blast.

"Rose, you might need this." Alberta handed me a stake. I curled my fingers around the hilt. It felt cold in my hands. I felt cold too. All I wanted was to kill these damn beastly things. I wanted to rid the world from them.

"How many Strigoi are on compass?" These were all questions that we needed to ask in order to pass our trials, which were next week.

"We estimate about two hundred." Alberta said. "The time has come when they outnumbered us. I will fight this battle like it is my last."

Brave, brave words. I admired her in that instant.

"Go do your task, Rose." My mother said already starting to walk/run ahead. Alberta followed shortly.

"Good luck, mom."

I saw her smile just a tad bit at the word "mom." Usually when I addressed her, I called her either mother or Janine.

"Good luck to you, too, my daughter." She left.

Oh. Crap. She. Did. Not. Just. Say. THAT. This was no time to worry of what she had said or not. I ran off to the most important person. I had to keep Adrian safe. He mattered most than the lives of all these people tonight.

I hurried my way to Adrian's room, hoping that he was okay. I got a whiff from the bond a sense of panic but I knew Lissa was safe. At least a million guardians were surrounding that area of the academy. I glanced sideways and for it had not been for that, I would have never seen Dimitri battling with at least twenty Strigoi. He had three other guardians and six other novices. But they were still outnumbered.

I debated whether to go to Adrian or to fight. Like mother, like daughter. My mother had passed on her fighting genes to me. That was obvious as the bloodlust rang through my body. It sang kill! kill! kill! And that's why I joined Dimitri in battling. The others must not have been a good entertainment for the Strigoi because at least fifteen out of the twenty Strigoi were surrounding Dimitri . I jumped in to help Dimitri.

"Roza!" The way he said my name with so much worry made my heart ache. But I didn't let it get to me. I put my killing mask on again. "What are you doing?! Go back to safety!" He growled while fighting with one of the Strigoi.

"Dimitri remember that we are in this together. You die, I die!" He nodded and continued on the Strigoi. We finished them off in minutes. We were so happy that we just hugged each other and kissed for a second.

I let go of him. A million things can happen in a second. The world can change in a second . . .

And it all happened in a second.

Seemingly out of nowhere, a Strigoi grabbed Dimitri from around the neck and bit him.

It all happened before my eyes.

All I could do was stare like an idiot. Don't let feelings interfere when battling a Strigoi. Dimitri's words whispered around the air. I couldn't snap out of this horrible vision. I would have died if not for Eddie saving my ass.

"Rose! Snap out of it!" He growled and started leading me away. As he led me forward, I took a look back and regretted it all at once. Dimitri had had his eyes closed but when he opened them, they were red. A blood red, that indicated that he was Strigoi now.

At first, I didn't know what to do. At last, I felt the tears just dripping from my eyes. Before I knew it, I had passed out from shock.

Two days later . . .

I stared at myself in the mirror. All I could see was a girl—not so much a girl—but, a woman, a woman who had pain filling her veins. There is only one way to take it out, Rose. Go to Adrian. That's all I could think about: I had to go the Adrian. He would make me forget about the pain; he would take it all away. I hadn't taken care of myself in two days it had to be. It was horrible. Every time I closed my eyes, I would see Dimitri falling and his red eyes. There had been a memorial for the lives we had lost the other night. It was the saddest thing in the world. People cried and mourned. So much sadness in the world right now. "They gave their lives for us and all we could do now is remember and honor them as the heroes they died" the priest had said. From Alberta, I had heard that the only reason the Strigoi attacked the academy was because a guardian that worked here, had killed one of their most famous leaders. He must have been so famous and awesome since he was killed by something less powerful than him.

I searched my closet for something decent to wear so that I could go to Adrian. I was still in lamentation, or in mourning, the deaths of the lost souls we lost during the battle. I pulled out a black mini dress that Adrian had once bought me. Black represented lament and that was the only reason I was wearing it. I took a quick shower, slipped the halter top dress with a belt at the waist on me, left my hair down, did a little hygiene on me, put on a coat, let my feet slide into some awesome ballet flats, and started towards Adrian's room.

In ten minutes, I was knocking on Adrian's door. He looked liked he had just gotten out the shower. His face was smooth as always, his hair styled the same as it always was, his clothes were neat with a button or two unbuttoned from his shirt. The only thing on him that showed imperfectness were those gorgeous, dark green eyes that held just about all the sadness in the world.

I put my hand on his cheek and he put his hand over mine. "Why are you so sad? I could see the pain in your eyes. And it hurts me as well it does you."

"It's Jade." He ushered me inside.

"What?! What happened to her? Why did I not hear about this sooner?!" I was freaking out. "What happened to her?" I demanded.

"One of the Strigoi played around with her." He took a breath. "He damaged her quite good. Doctor's don't know if she'll make it."

Oh, no. My sister had to live. She's has to live. I felt the warmth of my tears fill the corner of my eyes and slip down my cheeks. She has to live. I put my head in my hands, obscuring my face from my view. It was not long before Adrian was tugging at my hands and lifting my chin up to meet his face.

"It's going to be okay, Rose." Tears were falling out of his eyes and it hurt me to see his pain. "Jade is a fighter, you and I know that. She's going to make it out of this. My father will pay every last cent to save his daughter's life. No one would never let anything happen to our baby sister." He looked so serious and stopped crying. "Jade is going to live." He sounded so sure in that moment, there was no way to doubt him.

"I don't want anything to happen to her."

Shouldn't I be the one comforting him?

"I need you to be happy, so that I could be happy." He said. "Be happy that we are safe and together. Or would you rather be fried like all those dead people we lost two days ago? Jade wouldn't want us to be sad."

He wrapped his arms around me and lay down on the couch with me on top. "I don't know how to be happy right now. But you by me is sure helping me stay calm."

"And you send my emotions of control. I want and have to have you one second, and love and need you the next."

"You don't know what you cause me." I said, simply. "You don't know what you mean to me. But I sure as hell can show you."

He said with a mischievous smile, "Yeah." I nodded. "Well, show me." Actually, it was him who showed me how much he loved me. He glued his lips to mine and started kissing me with a passion! He and I kissed for ten minutes, only stopping when the real urge to breathe was present. Other than that, our lips would not untangle, and our tongues would not stop dancing.

We pulled away from each other, but only to kiss again, with more passion and desire this time.

He fumbled around until he took off my coat. Adrian sighed, running his fingers on the skin of my bare back, the bare skin my dress exposed of my back. Me in his arms, he knew that nothing else in the world mattered. He let his fingertips touch my back, softly, so the only thing I would feel were sensitive strokes from him. As expected, this only caused me to sigh, not in happiness, but in pleasure and complete bliss. A pleasure that he, and only he, could cause me.

We weren't undressed, but we were getting there, working our way, taking it slow; no impatience was needed here, since it was our first time. Since it was her my first time, I wanted to take things slow. For some reason, so did Adrian. Maybe because this was his first time making love with someone he actually loved, or maybe it was the fact that I was in his arms and that we loved each other, like no other couple on this planet loved each other.

He looked into my eyes, absolute love shining in them. I slipped my hands inside his black, thermal shirt and ran both hands down his smooth, marvelous chest. How could anyone be as beautiful as him? I had seen nothing, no sculpture, no painting, no human being that beat this beauty, his beauty. And it was only meant for me, me only. He only wanted to share these moments with me.

Nothing major was happening, but suddenly our intensity of passion increased. It was like lighting the end of a match, or like dropping a match into a puddle of spilled gas. But that fire that you started with those matches, burned in our skin. God forbid anything tear them apart.

Adrian put his lips over mine and my lips responded to his. As our lips mingled, or joined, our oxygen needs were becoming more and more urgent. I gripped Adrian's bare back. In response, he moved his lips down to my neck, where he gave me teasing kisses. This made me happier. Down, down his right hand traveled down my right side, until his hand curled around her leg; he brought it up so that he could wrap it around his waist.

We were both really breathless. But that only made our actions speed up. I let my hands slide into Adrian's shirt again, but this time, I slid his shirt over his head. Adrian's shirt was off and his bare chest made me breathless, about to swoon. What he showed me—what was underneath his shirt, made me breathless. I had never seen a sexier man. He had muscles exactly the way David Beckham had his. Also, Adrian had a light tan, which added to the sexy.

"Wow…you are sexy as hell." I let that phrase slide out of my mouth.

"And I say those words back to you, baby." I bit him lightly on the ear. That was my response to his comment. For a moment, he got distracted by my lips on his skin. He leaned down for some more . . . hungry, deep, air-shortening, tongue-tangling kisses. My hands, almost as if being told what to do without my consent, went to Adrian's belt buckle and unbuckled it. His pants were next to be unbuttoned. My hands on that area only caused Adrian's member to be harder than it originally was. As I looked back into his eyes, I noticed that the shining in them had changed. Now it was a mixture of love and lust, not just love like they had been filled with earlier.

There wasn't enough space on the couch so Adrian swooped me up in his amrs and carried me to his bed. We contiuned where we left off at.

Adrian started lowering himself. He grabbed one of my legs and started kissing his way up. His other hand, though, was making its way up to my exposed thigh. He pushed himself upwards, still kissing along the way. He reached my midsection, pulling my dress up so that he could get a better view. I thanked my moon that I remembered to wear a thong, and not my usual underwear. Adrian started pulling the dress's zipper down. He pushed the straps to the side and down it went until it reached the floor.

Adrian smiled, taking in my beauty. "Rose, you say I am sexy, but you are beautifully gorgeous." I moaned in real pleasure as he shoved his face in my private area, near my vulva. His twisted his tongue this way and that. It made my hands curl around the comforter. He lasted a few good minutes down there and then he moved up, unfortunately. I started removing his black boxers; they were a disturbance to what we were going to do next. He kissed me some more.

Finally, though, we had to get more of each other than we were giving. He knew this was my first time; he knew he had to be gentle on me. But that didn't stop him from asking the next question: "Babe, are you sure you are ready to do this?" He looked seriously into my eyes. I wasn't exactly ready. That was understated, though. No one would ever be ready for anything. That was what life was—giving in to whatever you felt was right. So, that's why, I nodded my head, addressing that I was ready to do this, especially with my love of life.

He stroked my cheek for a second, and then leaned down to kiss me softly. Once. Twice. He shifted his lips' attention to Rose's neck.

"I have never done this before," Rose whispered, very self-conscious.

He softly whispered, "That's alright."

And I watched as this marvelous thing turned into the most loving person in this world. I had never had another day when I loved so much.

"Spread your legs a little farther," he said. As I did, I could feel Adrian nearing her. "I am sorry, Rose. This will hurt." I nodded again.

Without further ado, I felt him trying to go inside. It was understandable. This was my first time, and my hymen needed to be destroyed in order for Adrian to go in completely. Adrian eased himself more into me.

Oh. God. Did. It. Hurt. It hurt baddddddd. I hissed out in pain, but he only kissed her. Adrian didn't go any slower for me, either. It was better; the pain would be over much sooner. And both of us didn't feel like going slow, at this moment. No thrusting was happening; some time later, Adrian let his whole weight down on me, making me gasp out in pain. He began thrusting—thrusts that made me fill with the best pleasure of my life. Why hadn't I done this sooner? I was glad I hadn't. I was sharing this wonderful moment with the love of my life. I never wanted it to stop . . .

I cuddled closer to Adrian and he held out his arms wider for me to creep into. I leaned my head against his chest. He started smoothing my hair, which was wild. Hence the reason they called it 'sex hair.' He kissed my forehead. "Wasn't it wonderful, my love?" He asked in my ear.

"It was amazing . . ." I didn't really want to speak. I wanted to cherish the after-sex moment. It was wonderful, but I was getting sleepy. He smiled his loving smile. It made my heart skip a beat. "I love you, Rose." My heart swelled until it felt like my rib cage would explode.

"You know I love you, too." My eyelids were drooping even more than before. "God, why am I so tired?"

He chuckled. "It happens…" he laughed again as I struggled to stay awake. "We had a rough night. You need sleep." He kissed me a hungry kiss. He brought me even closer to him, practically setting me on top of his chest. He wrapped the blankets around us tighter. His slipped his arms around me much harder than they had been, our legs tangling as our arms did. He gave me one last kiss and I fell asleep in my lover's arms.

The next chapter, it might be a while since I update because I totally changed the plot and I need to think of some ideas. Again . . . if you have any suggestions for me, I am all ears. Thanks! And please review! Tell me what you thought of this chapter!

Lots of amor
