Hey guys! So I'm new to fanfiction and this is my first story on it, so it might suck but please review and tell me how I'm doing on it. In my story Rose and Lissa didn't lose the bond. Oh and thanks for checking out my story. Here it is.

You Can't Wait Forever.

I looked back at the royal court as I walked away. Tears rolled down my face and a sob wracked through my body. I know what your thinking, Rose Hathaway is crying? WTF? I just cant stand it though. Through out all of my troubles I've always had at least one of them with me. Now I left both Lissa and Dimitri. Its not like I wanted to! I just knew something I shouldn't. I mean why would I leave? I proved Tasha was guilty, Lissa is queen, mom and dad have approved of Dimitri, and I finally have him. I love him. Through the bond I could feel that Lissa was still asleep. I prayed to god- okay not really- that Dimitri went back to sleep, and isn't out looking for me this second. He was really close to coming with me.

~flashback~

My alarm started to vibrate under my pillow. That meant it was time to go. I carefully removed Dimitri's hand from my waste. I was about to get up when a pair of strong arms pulled me back to bed and into a muscled chest.

"Where do you think your going? It's three in the morning." He whispered in my ear.

"Actually, Comrade, it's three in the afternoon." He gave me the look that said "your not getting out of it that easy." I sighed "Fine Comrade I was going to the gym. I couldn't sleep." He sat up.

"Okay I'll come with you, we can spar."

God! He wasn't going to let this go. I quickly thought of a lie.

"No you should rest. Don't want to be tired for your shift tomorrow, do you?" Okay so it wasn't a lie exactly. He really shouldn't be tired for his shift. He ran a hand through his hair and sighed.

"Okay, but be careful." I rolled my eyes. So Dimitri.

"Comrade, careful is my middle name." He chuckled.

"Yeah sure, right after reckless and stubborn." damn! I'm going to miss his laugh. I hopped out of the bed and made my way to his side.

"I'm going to miss you Comrade." I wish he knew that I wasn't talking about going to the gym.

"I'll miss you more, Roza." I smiled. I loved that nickname. He sat up and brought his lips to mine. I melted into that kiss. Before I knew he pulled back. Oh, I was not taking that! This was the last time I was going to see him. I reached forward and pulled him to me. Our tongues danced for dominance, and in the end he won. We pulled back, both breathing heavy.

"I love you Roza." he stated, like it was the simplest thing in the world. I smiled.

"I know. I love you too." I laid him back down and kissed his forehead. "Go to sleep, don't worry about me I'll be back soon." I lied.

"I'll be waiting." His Russian ascent laced his words. I faked a smile then closed the door.

"You can't wait forever." I whispered so low I'm surprised I heard it.

Instead of going to the gym, of course, I headed to the head guardian office. Courtesy of Queen Lissa, I am now head guardian. I unlocked the door and went to the supply closet in the back of the huge room. I opened it up and took out all my luggage that I crammed in that small closet. The letters explaining as much as I could about my little escape fell out of my coat pocket. I taped it to the inside part of the door. Part of being a head guardian is that I get to keep the entire courts weapons in another huge room inside my office. I walked in and observed my options. Of course I grabbed a silver stake. I then grabbed a revolver, and a hand gun. I glanced at a battle and sniper rifle longingly, but I knew I couldn't take them with. I needed weapons I could carry without causing attention. Next I pulled of a bow n' arrow. I then moved over to the sword shelf. I pulled off a few daggers, throwing knives, a MK 2 knife, a M9 bayonet, and finally a beautiful silver sword infused with all the elements-except spirit- causing it to be harmful to strigoi as well. I grabbed a few smoke grenades then slid the items in their correct places. I slid my stake in the sheath in my belt along with all the knives. Then I sloped the stake I got here in one of my combat boots and my revolver in the other. My sword had it's own sheath on my back. I swung the the shoulder strap for the bow n' arrow and arrows over my shoulder so it was diagonal to the sword. Once I was ready i locked the door and made my way to the courts gate.

~End Flash back~

So now you caught up to where i am now. Well, no, actually your caught up to where I am now, from early today. It's going to take awhile for you to get caught up to now from when I was recovering from the gun shot wound. I kept walking letting my face get soaked by tears. Let them go Rose. Your doing this for them.
