*Warning Abusive\Gory Themes from Dimitri's past*

Ch.2: Finding Roza

DPOV

I was packing my clothes for the trip to Los Angeles, California. I had been ACCEPTED into USC, probably because of my grades and my basketball extracurricular. I vividly remember when I told my Mama, I got accepted.

I was greeted by Mama smacking my head with a spatula. I mean I did stay out late.

"Dimitri Belikov, where were you this whole time?!". She said

"I was just getting groceries, Sonya said too". I said

"Well, you should have told me, I was worried sick!". Mama said

"I'm sorry Mama". I said

She dismissed me, and I went to my room.

This would be the moment to see if I got accepted into USC.

I slowly opened my computer and went to my E-mail.

I clicked on the E-mail USC sent me.

I got ACCEPTED!

Mama ran to my room checking if I was okay.

I told her the big news, she jumped up and down way too many times.

I called my Sisters Sonya, Karolina, and Viktoria to tell them the big news, they were so happy.

I now had to leave my family, the thought saddened me. But I knew this was for good.

As I looked out my window and saw the stars with families of their own, I sighed. I was single.

Mama always hinted she wanted grandchildren, but all the women wanted was to get in my pants, I sighed again.

I put my Western novels into my suitcase, "This will come in handy later,".

I packed some black and white wife beaters (Tank tops) in the luggage. I wasn't a heavy packer, I would buy anything I needed in America. I threw some jeans into the mix. I stared down at my cowboy hat, deciding

whether to take it or not, I took it.

I looked down at the time, it was 8:57 pm. I would have to sleep soon, I had to wake up at 6:00 am. Even though my flight's at 9:10.

I went to my computer and turned it on. I typed USC into my search bar and looked at all the info. The Dean was Janine Hathaway. Her last name seemed familiar, probably deja vu.

I looked at all the championships they won. 135?!

That's a lot! I realized, if I wanted to get to the Yakutsk Airport (YKS) I had to go to sleep.

9 Hours Later

Shit! I thought I overslept, But thank god, I didn't. I quickly showered, making sure to shampoo and condition my hair. A few minutes later, I walked out of the shower with a towel on my waist.

I felt a bit uneasy like someone was watching me. I brushed it off, just thinking I was nervous.

I got to the airport by 7:30 am. As I walked to my counter in LA, the airport ticket lady glanced in my direction. It took all my willpower to not scowl when the ticket lady unbuttoned 3 of her buttons.

I walked over to her, considering this was the airport brand I was taking.

She leaned over and showed off a bit too much cleavage. "Hello sir, how is your day today?"

"Okay, I guess."

"Bad day, I can make it better." She stuck out her tongue and winked. " All you have to do is ask."

I scowled," You do realize I'm 18, right?" I said coldly.

"And? I love young men, I'm only 25". I stared at her with disgust visible in my eyes.

"Your loss, don't worry. I'm always here." I almost wanted to sock her in the face, but memories of my dad came up.

I came back home from school, I passed my science quiz. "Mama, look-".

I heard crying and whimpering. I ran into the kitchen only to see my mother bloodied and bruised. My father was hanging over holding a bottle of beer and a knife.

Before, I even knew what happened, I socked my father in the nose. My mother wasn't crying anymore, but I didn't stop. I punched everywhere, anything I could see. He cried out in pain, but I didn't stop until he begged me to.

"Out NOW!'' I bellowed. He quickly scampered out of the door, out of my life."

I looked towards my mother, who was as confused and scared as me. I gave my mother a bear hug, I cried all the tears out.

I helped her up and cleaned the wounds.

I snapped out of my trance and coldly said "Please hurry, I have somewhere to be!"

She finished her job and I went to a cafe. It was called Ла кофе (La Cafe).

I ordered a coffee, ignoring all advances made towards me. I realized I had 30 minutes until my flight. I walked over to gate 12, flight 1BCE3.

I went on my phone, realizing my sister posted an Instagram reel.

I sighed and I scrolled through. That's when I saw it.

My sister, Viktoria posted a video of me sleeping.

I narrowed my eyes at the photo, took a deep breath, and looked at the comments.

Most of them said things like "Wow, your brother is so hot," or "I could never do that to my brother,".

But I saw one comment out of the ordinary, "I saw your brother today, gonna take him," The comment sent shivers done my spine.

I then shut my phone off and walked inside the plane. I kept on bumping my head into things, and an occasional "Frick" would come out of my mouth.

I looked at my ticket and sat in my seat. Eventually, we took off. One of the stewardesses asked me which drink I was drinking, "Cola" I said.

She nodded. Then while she was walking, she swayed her hips. I rolled my eyes. "Women."

She came back. "Hello sir, here's your drink. I added some extra sugar, just for you."

I glared at her "Why, tell me why. I don't eat sugar, I watch my weight". I narrowed my eyes.

"I am sorry, you just looked like the type who eats sugar."

"Are you sure you didn't want to get in my pants?" I asked amused.

She blushed and walked away.

I fell asleep. I dreamt about a young girl who had curves, and long beautiful hair that I could just twirl in my hands.

I immediately shot up and looked around. I realized there was 5 minutes until we landed. I sighed a deep sigh.

I waited and waited, and waited.

Finally, the pilot said we could board off. I step into LA for the first time.

I looked around, multiple people stared at me. Some visibly drooled.

I was suddenly hit with a gush of heat. But, no one seemed affected. It was like they were used to it. This is going to be a long journey.

I had a summer semester. Meaning, that I would get summer break and winter break. More time to see my family, I guess.

The Dean had said some black SUVs would come and pick me up.

I saw a black SUV with a sign saying "WELCOME TO LA, DIMITRA." I glared at them. They had just spelled my name wrong. I heard a laugh.

I turned around, and someone with the nametag "Alberta", gestured for me to come in the car. I went in the car noticing her pixie cut, with some tattoos. She looked in her fifties.

Eventually, we pulled up the USC, I was surprised about how big the school was.

"Hey Dimitra, you like the school," Alberta said.

I glared at her, and she laughed.

I noticed a few female students staring at me, I gave them a heart-stopping smile. Some fainted. Some were in shock.

Alberta showed me around the school and led me to the GYM, I met some interesting people. Like Christian Ozera, He had black hair that is messy and pale icy blue eyes, which means he can be easily identified. Christian is tall and thin and has a pale complexion. He looks grunge and emo. But,

I found out that his parents were murderers.

I was drinking water when I saw her. She was the girl in my dream. My eyes widened. I heard Coach Alberta tell the cheerleaders to pick a guy. She looked around and then walked up to me.

My breathing hurt, but I played it cool. She asked me my name

"Dimitri, Dimitri Belikov."

"The name's Rose, Rose Hathaway," Rose said

"That's a beautiful name for a beautiful girl" I blurted out, I noticed she was blushing.

I started laughing, and Rose looked in Love,

Bingo!

"So where are you from?" I asked.

"Half Turkish, half Scottish." I knew it!

"Cool, do you have any siblings?" I asked.

" Oh, I'm an only child," Rose said.

"Oh, I'm an only child," I said.

"Cool, what kind of cheerleader are you?" I asked

"Head," Roza said.

"It looks like Coach is telling y'all to leave," I said.

"Bye Rose," I said.

"Bye Roza," I said

"Roza, whats a Roza?" Rose asked

"It's your name in Russian," He said.

She then walked to the cafeteria, and I followed her.

She looked so sexy when she got mad that Adrian was flirting with her. When she was about to slap him, I grabbed her arm. "Leave me alone," Roza said.

"No, you'll hurt him. He deserves it but... wait by the door."

She follows my orders.

I then walk up to Adrian and whisper "If I see you around Rose, ever again. I will break your kneecaps, smash your head, and tell your little secret." His face visibly paled.

I walked up to Roza "Now, that the problem is taken care of, I found out we share a dorm," I said gently.

I looked at her "Thank you, but we share a dorm, I-i don't know what to say."

"Me too, Roza, Me too.
