DPOV

It was so adorable watching Roza rush around her apartment, packing for Russia. We had already stopped at my apartment to get my things. I was in and out of my place in 20 minutes. We were already at Roza's about 30 minutes or more and she only had her bathroom bag and her passport packed.

"I don't know what to pack.. What is the weather like over there this time of year? Is there only snow all year round? Should I pack only winter clothes?", Roza frantically said while rushing around her closet.

I let out a gentle laugh, stood up and crossed the room to help Roza. I came up behind her and placed my hands on her shoulders to get her to stand still for a moment. "Roza, you amuse me sometimes. Russia is not a frozen tundra like you think it is. The weather is pretty much the same as here. The only thing that you need to pack is this." I let one of my hands go of Roza and reached into her closet and pulled out a barely there black and pink nightie. "Pack only this and we should be good to go...Ouch!"

Roza had elbowed me playfully in the ribs. "Dimitri!..What am I going to do with you...", she giggled with a smirk and a shake of her head.

"Hmm...LOTS of things..", I said with a little growl. I side stepped her elbow this time.

"Get out and let me finish packing..If you had your way with my clothing options, we would only take your clothes and I would be naked the whole time."

"That is ok with me.." I ducked out the door before she could throw something at me.

About 20 minutes later we were on our way to the airport. In less than 14 hours we would be in Bia, Russia. One of the best things about this trip, besides going with Roza, is that my family had no idea that we were coming.

We were in the car heading for the airport. My mind kept going in all directions, I was trying to think of what I packed, I hoped that I packed right for the trip. Clothes was my biggest worry, Dimitri was no help in choosing what clothes to bring. Mind you, I wouldn't mind being naked with him the whole time. I decided to pack a bit of everything, shorts, capris, long shirts, tanks, some jeans and a few sweaters..

"Oh my...I forgot to pack underwear.." I said out loud. We were pulling into the airport long term parking lot and didn't have the time to go back and get them.

Dimitri squeezed my hand, "Don't worry Roza..They do sell underwear over there. We can stop at the store before we go to the house." Dimitri said with a laugh.

DPOV

"You find this very amusing don't you?" I opened my mouth to reply. "Don't answer that.." She quickly added. She was more beautiful, if that is possible, when she is nervous.

We were sitting at the gate waiting for the plane to start boarding when I heard someone say, "Dimka is that you?..Oh my..It is you."

I turned my head to see Sonya and Mikhail, two of my best friends from Russia standing not five feet away. "Wow, what are you two doing here?" I said standing up and gently putting Roza's head on my folded sweater and giving Sonya a hug and Mikhail a man hug.

"We are catching a connecting flight home to Russia, we are on our way back from Vegas. We were on our honeymoon.", Sonya explained.

"Congratulations." I said with a smile.

Mikhail asked, "Where are you heading?"

"I'm heading home to Russia for a visit.. Well, Roza and I are." I turned so Sonya and Mikhail could see the sleeping Roza. "She just fell asleep an hour or so ago. I looked at Roza with much affection.

"We have alot to catch up on, on the plane." Mikhail nodded towards Roza.

"FLIGHT 649 DIRECT TO SAINT PETERSBURG, RUSSIA IS NOW BOARDING." We all heard a gate attendant say across the speaker.

Mikhail asked me, "What seats are you two in?"

"Seven A and B..You?"

"We are right behind you." Sonya said with a smile.

Mikhail and Sonya went ahead of us and boarded the plane, I went to wake up Roza.

"Roza, you have to wake up, the plane is starting to board." I said as I gently brushed the hair out of her face. I hated to wake her. She looked so peaceful and sweet when she was sleeping.

We gathered our things and got in line to board the plane. I looked at Roza with a smile on my face. I was so happy, I couldn't believe how much I could possibly love someone so much in such a short time. I couldn't wait for my family to meet Roza.

I think Roza could sense that I was staring at her, because after a few moments she turned and looked at me. When she did, my heart sank a had a scared look on her face.

I asked her what was wrong and she replied, "What if your family don't like me?". I started to laugh and handed the gate attendant our passports and boarding passes.

RPOV

We were sitting at the gate about two hours before our scheduled departure. We were sitting close to the window, with our backs to the crowd, watching the planes take off. I leaned my head on Dimitri's shoulder and let out a yawn.

"Why don't you lay down here and rest for a bit. We have almost another two hours before we can board the plane.", Dimitri said kissing my hair.

"I think I will. It has been along day and I don't think I can keep my eyes opened much longer." I scooted over and laid my head on Dimitri's lap. I closed my eyes and soon drifted off to sleep with Dimitri running his fingers through my hair.

(Rose's Dream)

*BANG BANG BANG*

I woke to someone banging on my door. "Whoever that is, it better be an emergency! If not, it will become one.." I said, throwing my covers off and heading for the door. I opened the door to find Lissa on the other side.

"Geez, don't bite my head off. The power went off last night because of the storm and being the good friend that I am, I came over to wake you up so you won't be late." Lissa said pushing me aside and entering my apartment.

I looked around and all my things were gone and there were boxes everywhere. I turned to Lissa with a questionable look on my face. "Lissa, what am I going to be late for and where are all my things?"

Lissa put her hands on my shoulders and said, "Funny Rose..You are so funny..You know where your things are gone AND you know what were are going to be late for. So go back into your room and put some clothes on and come with me, everything else is already there waiting for us.

I walked back into my room, except it wasn't my room. Everyone that I knew and loved was there. Christian was sitting with Tasha, Eddie and Mia were there too. My father took my arm and lead me towards Dimitri. Dimitri took me from my father and whispered, "Are you ready?"

I got to the front of the room and this Little Old Lady, with a stern look was talking away in russian. She would look at Dimitri and smile, but when she looked back at me, it was like she was looking through me.

I turned to look at Dimitri, with tears coming to my eyes. I was so scared, I didn't know what was happening. He cupped my cheek with his hand and kissed me softly on the lips. He looked into my eyes, with those deep chocolate brown eyes of his and said, "Roza, you have to wake up, the plane is starting to board."

I woke up and shook the remnants of the dream away. I helped Dimitri gather our things and headed for the boarding line.

While standing in line, I was quite as a church mouse. I couldn't get that angry old lady out of my head. I could see Dimitri out of the corner of my eye, he was just staring at me with that smile of his, the one he had just for me.

I turned to look at him and the smile faltered. That his expression turned from love to concern when I looked at him. Dimitri asked, "Roza, what's wrong? Are you ok?"

I took a deep breath and replied, "What if your family don't like me?"

Dimitri just started to laugh as he handed the gate attendant our tickets and passports. I gave Dimitri my it's not funny look and started out ahead of him down the tunnel to the plane.

He quickly caught up to me and hugged me from behind. He rested his chin on my shoulder, (we continued to walk like that) and whispered into my ear, "It's true, they are not going to like you...They will love you..They already do..You want to know how I know?"

"Yes!", I said more bluntly than I meant too, which made him laugh more.

"They love you because I love you."

I tired to raise one eyebrow like he does, but it turned out to look more like a surprise face than anything else. He laughed at me, yet again and I gave him a little elbow to his his ribs. He went to laugh again and I gave him a playful warning look. He just smiled a playful smile back at me and raised the one eye brow.

So what do you think? A good start to the sequel?
