I woke up the next morning with Dimitri's strong arms wrapped around me and turned over to look into deep brown eyes.

"Good morning." I said smiling brightly. He leaned in and kissed me softly, making me close my eyes and let the feeling of his lips linger after he pulled away.

"It is now." He moved to my neck leaving soft open mouth kisses all the way down to my shoulder.

I laughed as he moved so he was above me supporting his weight with his elbows. "What's funny?" he moved back to my neck our breathing a little uneven at this point.

"You do know Lissa is going to be here any minute, right?" he stopped moving and looked at me with a look of disappointment. I smiled up at him and kissed him softly and moved my hand down to cup him through his pajama bottoms.

"So you're going to make it worse?" he gasped out and moved his hips against my hand. He sighed in content and someone started knocking on the door.

"Rose! Dimitri! Time to go!" Lissa screamed through the door.

"You know what that means? Get your clothes back on and get fucking!" Christian screamed over her and I heard a punch followed by an "ow" from Christian.

I laughed as I got out of bed, knocking Dimitri on his back. He got up and walked over to the door. "Queen Dragomir, Lord Ozera." He greeted them and allowed them in. Christian laughed as I grinned at Lissa and threw my arms around her.

"Hi best friend, ready to go get our asses on the road back to hell?" I asked in a chipper voice that was obviously strained.

"Yes, of course I am. Guardian Hathaway." She winked and I looked at Dimitri.

"That's how you greet someone you actually like, comrade." He looked down at me with a look of disapproval but also with a twinkle in his eyes. He looked slightly irritated. Then again fooling around earlier probably didn't help. He walked to the bedroom to grab our clothes

"Give us a few to get dressed and we'll head out on the road." She hugged me and then grabbed Christian and headed to the car.

I turned around and headed to our bedroom to see Dimitri already had on a pair of dark blue jeans and his boots, and slipping on a black t-shirt with his duster laid on the bed. I grabbed my jeans and red tank top slipping them and my black flip flops on heading out the door.

He put the key in the ignition and started the car.

"Do you think Kirova is still the principal?" Lissa asked after we had been driving for about 30 minutes.

"I have no idea. Let's hope she fixed her beak before school started back up." We laughed about our old joke about her. Then again she looked more like a vulture more than you would think possible.

"What?" Dimitri asked not taking his eyes off the road. Always careful but eyes observant about everything.

"We used to say Kirova looked like a vulture, but even you have to admit it's the truth." I saw the slightest smile spread across his face.

I don't know what happened after that all I know is that one minute it was great and the next there was a loud crash and the world was spinning, then nothing it all went black.
