I walked down the hallway, very proudly... with a smirk on my face. All of the couple were exchanging paper heart, chocolates, flowers, or... spit. Out of everyone I knew I was going to have the best valentines day.
Just this morning in the gym Dimitri had given me Roses and Chocolates.
"Roses for my Roza" He had said "although, they will never be a gorgeous as you"
As cheezy as it was, it was sweet. Plus, he was alot less mentor-ish, steeling kisses when ever he could, whispering stuff in my ear while we were fighting, and actually let me have my way... we had a make out session which consisted of him pushing me up against the wall and running his hands dangerously close to... well I think you get the idea.
He never said anything about tonight, but, knowing him, I knew he had something planned. I sat through all of my classes; the minutes dragging on, but I knew that every time the second hand passed the twelve then I was just one minute closer to what ever the surprise was.
5:00 a.m.(in Moroi times it's technically 5:00 p.m.)
I flopped down on my bed, tired and exhausted, from my work our with Dimitri, then my continued work out/run with myself. After a couple minuted I finally stood up and grabbed a towel, then went into my bathroom and started up the shower.
I walked back into my room turned my music on. Then, walked back into the bathroom, stripped of my clothes and got on the shower. The steaming hot water running down my back felt great, I rested my head against the cold tile wall, and sighed. I may have the best sort-of-in-a-way boyfriend, but it really sucks having to hide and almost never get to touch him intimately. Hopefully, if he really does have a surprise for me, which I am beginning to doubt, that will change, for once.
5:45 a.m.
I Rose Hathaway, was actually reading. Crazy, huh? Today sucks so far, the morning was great, but after that the day dragged on and on, usually right now I would go visit, but while I was in the shower I decided I probably shouldn't go see her, considering what I saw when I got sucked into her head. Ew. So yes, I am sitting here listening to music and reading. All that is on TV is stupid lovey dovey TV shows and/or movies. Which psses me off, because, like I stated before, I can't walk around holding hands with the man I'm in love with, unlike most of the people on TV- scratch that, all of the people on TV. Stupid Humans. They get to be all happy and live a full life, and actually do what they want with it. Yes, I understand that some of them to have hard lives, but whats harder that haveing to gaurd someone who you are mentally bonded to, and fight against majorly strong blood-crazed freaky vampire dudes. (A/N: I know, there are many things that are harder than that, like abuse and rape, and stuff, but just go with it)
6:30 a.m.
Dinner time. I silently walked to the commons, and into the cafeteria. I grabbed a tray, and filled it with with food, and stupid heart shaped desert. Then, I walked over to an empty table and sat down, and started eating, soon enough Lissa and Christian sat down, next to me. I looked at Christian and suddered. There are somethings in the world that I just cannot stand seeing.
"What?" He asked
"Nothing, I will just never look at you that same, after what I saw about an hour ago" I said, looking away, then stuffing food into my mouth.
"Oh" He and Lissa and in union. I could feel her embarrassment through the bond.
"It's okay Liss" I said, through my chewed up cookie, then swallowed it "It's my fault, I should have been more focused on keeping you out, I knew that you guys were gonna end up doing that today, I should have kept my gaurd up"
She blushed and looked down at her food "Okay, I really am sorry though"
"It's fine" I insisted
"Exactly how much did you see?" Christian asked
"Let's just say that your not that big" I said, standing up to throw my tray away. As I walked away I could here Lissa stiffle a giggle than say:
Now, she was just joking, Christian. I love you the way you are"
I laughed out loud, and glanced over my shoulder and saw Christian glaring at me, his face was bright red.
As I walked closer to the door, I saw that Dimitri was standing by it, doing that see without actually seeing thing. I walked up to him and he smiled, lightly. After all, we are in a room full of teenagers, who love to gossip.
"On duty, huh?" I said, it was a rhetorical question.
"Yep" he said, going back to watching everyone
"When are you off?"
"Eleven"
"Oh, okay. Well, I better get back to my room" As I walked out Dimitri slightly brushed my arm, then slipped a piece of paper into my hand. When I was out of sight of everyone I unfolded the paper.
I know how hard this is for you, Trust me, it's hard for me too- watching everyone walk around hand-in-hand, stealing kisses.
I wish we could do that, I love you, Rose.
I'll see you soon.
Love always,
Comrade
I smiled, for four reasons, the note, him telling me he loves me, which he has never done, it's always been kind of implied. Him using my nickname that I gave him, and also that he said "I'll see you later"
Was he saying later as in some times tonight, or tomorrow. I guess we'll just have to fin out.
