chapter sixteen
'' What do you mean by that ? '' I ask softly .'' I mean how I say it sometimes spirit just takes me over it is why I started training with eddie in the first place to get some of that built up frustration out , art helps and I know you help but when someone is messing with you or anybody else I care about spirit surfaces .'' He looked at me sadly . my heart melted and I threw my arms around him .
'' You are by no means fucked up you are perfect exactly the way you are all this means is we need to do more things to get our built up frustration and what not out .'' I looked up at him resting my chin on his chest .
'' Like what ?'' Adria gave me a carefree smile his eyes gleaming . '' I think that you can figure it out .'' I push him down on the bed .
the next morning when we go to class the students are sitting down listening to the guardian in charge watching , we sit back and listen .
She is going over how to stake a Strogi demonstrating on the dummy I smiled reminiscing when Dimitri had taught me how to stake a dummy it was the same day tha my mom had hit me giving me a black eye and only a week before I had met Adrian I smiled thinking of the way he had First approached me.
" what? " Adrian mouthed looking down at me a amused look on his face. " just thinking. " I shrugged and look back at where the Guardian is demonstrating.
There were three other dolls know in the front we each took one and started calling students up. Adrian was at the fist doll I was at the last Christain stood between us so I couldnt hear what was being said when the girl who reminded me of myself went up to him. She was probably thanking him for last night so I left it alone and focused on the student that I was helping a dhampire boy with Sandy blond hair and bright blue eyes.
" you think I could be a Guardian to the queen? " he asked punching his practice stake threw the dummy perfectly hitting the mark. I looked behind him he was the last in my line.
" come on. " I gestured for him to follow me over to the empty matts on the other side of the gym. " show me what you have got and I will see what I can do. " I gesture for him to come at me.
He is good real promise he did what I tried to tell the other students to do, predict your opponents moves and block them before they hit you.
" good job you definitely have a job when you graduate. " I panted patting his back. He did not get me pinned or anything but I had no doubt that by time he graduated he would be able to kick my ass all through the gym.
" Really." he smiled at me. " yes. " I laugh. " Now what's your name. " I ask him crossing my arms over My chest.
"Jared Michaels ." he raises his arms over his head still trying to catch his breath. I noted that he needed more endurance .
" well you come see me Jared, but before then I want you run every morning and afternoon push yourself further and further each day. " the way Dimitri had trained me. "okay. " he agreed no question.
" alright Jared if you need any help or questions about your training I will leave my number with kivora when I leave so you can call me. " I Pat him on the back again and walk away.
I sit back and watch as Christian and Adrian help the last two students. When they are done they walk over and join me.
" I see you have a little prodigy. " Adrian smiles looking
over at Jared and lazily drapes his arm over me.
" Well he is good and he I told him he definitely has a job working for Lisa when he graduates I whisper looking over at Jared. He chuckles lightly. " Well don't leave after class sabrina wants to talk to you. " he whispered in my ear. I looked up at him and he lifted his index finger to point at the dhampire girl.
That was her name. " why ? " Adrian was the one who really made it so Matt Didnt say anything. beating the shit out of him and using compulsion and what not.
" she wants to talk to you, you should realize little dhampire there are other little dhampire that look up to you. " he kissed my cheek and pulled me tighter to him.
" As you know it is lord ozera,lord ivashkov and Guardian hathaways last day so on your way out you should tell them goodbye. " class dismissed everyone started grabbing there bags and headed out until it was just me and Sabrina.
" Adrian said you wanted to talk to me. "I walked over to her. She looked nervously at her feet but looked back up at me pushing her red hair out of her face.
" I want to apologize for how much of a bitch I was when you first came and thank you for watching out for me last night. " she met my eyes.
" it's no problem I was just as much of bitch if not more when I was your age. " I felt so old saying that I was only twenty two not a big age difference but I liked to think that I was wise and experienced for my age.
" I have heard that around before. "she laughed.
" Sabrina right? " I asked stepping closer to her she nodded. " I really have been where you have been plus worse as you know. " apparently everyone was very well aware of my past. " yes. " she nodded.
" well I want you to take a easier course forget about boys, partying just focus on your training you might be able to work for Lisa because I know you have a lot of potential ." I look at her.
I could really see myself in her and even though at the moment I hated to admit it but I would not be where I was today if it were not for Dimitri he taught me how to respect myself and I would do the same for Sabrina.
" seriously? " her face lit up.
" yes if you get your self together and really practice training if you need some help I suggest you go to Guardian Viktoria belikova maybe Dimitri belikova if he is here any longer." I tell her and she leaps forward and hugs me almost knocking me down in the process.
" If you ever need anything I will leave my number with kivora and you can call me.I hug her tightly then release her. She nods and walks out.
When I walk outside I see Dimitri and Adrian talking Dimitri I slowly make my way over to them but stand far enough away so they don't see me and continue talking.
" This is not going to over Ivashkov, she loved me once she will love me agian. " Dimitri growled in a way that would have even intimidated me but Adrian just leaned his head back and gave a cold curt laugh.
" move on from Rose, she does not love you like that ." I realized he was using compulsion on Dimitri but I didn't step forward not yet I wanted to know what else he was going to do.
" Be her mentor and close friend who happens to have a romantic past with her but also realizes that it is the past and neither of you have romantic feelings for he each other now your both moving on in life finding new loves and completely happy and supportive ." I watched in silence. " now go away Dimitri. " Dimitri walked away and I came forward. " Rose. " Adrian looked surprised to see me.
" I am taking that you saw all that ? " Adrian asked looking at me with a cool expression. " yeah. " I nod. " are you mad at me? " he sighs. He looks tired. " No. " I shake my head and walk over resting my head on his chest.
" really? " he looks at me hesitantly looking a little unsure. " yeah I know Dimitri I honestly think it was the only option to end this all peace fully no more drama, Dimitri should be happy it means that he won't get beat up anymore. " I smiled up at him. " yeah it gets boring. " he wrapped his arm around me and we headed back to our room.
I plop down on the bed laying flat on my back Adrian laid down beside me on his side he propped his head up and looked down at me.
" what ?" I turned facing him our faces we're just inches away. " nothing. " he shakes his head and lays flat on back he crosses his hands behind his head.
" tell me. " I whine rolling and laying on top on him. He smiles but does not answer. " Adrian. " I straddled on top of him he looked at me. " tell me. " I lean my face over his are lips are almost touching.
" fine. " he agrees. " I was just thinking that I want to marry you one day have a nice big house and lots of kids. " he looked up at me his eyes warm with affection. " oh really? " I smile down at him.
" more than anything in the world, so what do You say will you marry me one day and have lots of my babies? " he Rose a eyebrow. " of course I will marry you one day but we need to discuss having lots of babies I don't know how many times I can do that a I see is big head little hole. " i laugh but I am partly serious.
" okay Rose . " he laughed sitting up and cupping my face he pulled it close and kissed me.
