The next morning I woke up to my phone ringing, "Guardian Belikov speaking." I answered groggy.
"Ahh Dimitri, you're awake! Perfect, Can you go with me to my office today to be able to discuss the whole Rose situation this morning?" Lissa asked in a happy tone, I looked over that the nightstand and noticed it 6 o'clock, mori morning.
"Sure, but just one thing, why are you up so early? Of what I know is that you should be free up until midday." While I was on the phone all I could focus on was rose sleeping peacefully on her stomach, her hair all over on one side of the pillow and her beautiful face towards me. I love how I get to wake up to her every morning. I wouldn't change this for anything. I'm also glad that she picked me out of everyone in the world, I was the lucky one.
"Oh I am! I would just feel better if we could get all this chaos over and done with, the quicker, the better. Although now that I think about it, it is kind of early, isn't it. Well either way I though you would be up and training with rose. Since you both wake up earlier than this." She noted. "We normally would but since the whole thing happened, I figured a couple of days off wouldn't hurt."
"Okay, well I'll be waiting, just come over to my place and we can go to my office from there, let rose sleep in if you wish." Lissa said.
"I'll be right over." And with that we hung up. I couldn't force myself from bed; all I wanted to do was watch Rose sleep all day. I know that she's my one and only, I want to make it official and ask her to marry me, I know she doesn't want marriage yet but it doesn't hurt to ask. With that final thought I got out of bed and hit the shower.
When I was all done and ready I wrote Rose a small note gone to speak with Lissa for a bit, text me when you wake up. Love Dimitri
When I went to pick up Lissa I noticed guardian Ryan and Hanks standing outside of our door. "Gentlemen, may I ask why you both are posted out here?" I asked looking a Ryan first and then at hanks. Guardian hanks looked over at Ryan.
"The queen ordered us to stay posted out at your door." Ryan responded with confidence. I just stared at him wishing to get more info. I wasn't informed that we needed guarding. "And may I ask why?" Ryan then looked me in the eyes and spoke to me like I was three.
"Because of what Guardian Hathaway did to Dr. Stern, Lissa though it was safe to keep her away from any trouble for a while. Even though we both know you were with her." I just stared at him trying to wrap my head around this. "And are you to stay posted all day?" I asked him
"Just until she informs us that we don't have to any longer. I though she informed you of all this." he said. Well no. I wasn't informed I thought. Well I guess it is better that she stays safe while I'm not with her. With that I just said my goodbyes and walked the short walk over to Lissa and Christian's place. The good thing about knowing the queen on a personal lever is that the guards never stop me from going into the apartment. And Christian is also my change and happens to be Lissa's boyfriend.

I rolled over to Dimitri's side of the bed trying to look at him and felt the bed cold. When I was finally able to open my eyes I noticed that it was already 9, I also noticed a noted on his pillow. It took me a while to be able to be in bed without having my eyes close every three second and wanting to sleep. I got my phone from the night stand on my side of the bed and noticed that Christian texted me. You up for some breakfast? I quickly messaged back, I'm down. Be over in ten minutes :D, by the time I was showered and dressed I sent a quick message to Dimitri on my way out, I was mid-sentence when I noticed Ryan and hanks outside the door. They both looked at me at the same time, both waiting for an explosion from me. "Lissa, right?" they both nod. And here I thought that her threat on having guardians on me was an empty threat, guess not.
"Well how do you both feel about breakfast?" I ask them hanks looks excited and Ryan just nods. Ryan is like an older brother to me, serious when we are in a public place but really chill when we are in a group of friends, even though we don't hang out much and he is 10 years older than me. Hanks actually came from Australia; he's my age but acts like a little kid too much.
When we walk in to Lissa and Christian's place I noticed that he is wearing a kiss the cook apron. I look at his and crinkle my nose, "Gross! I really rather not" I say, he looked confused until Ryan points out what he is wearing, "oh please, you wish you could kiss me, but no thanks Rose I'm all for Lissa. Besides she got me this and I think it was sort of nice." He states
"Didn't like it too much huh?" I question. He shakes his head "but it was a nice gift on her part, so the least I can do is wear it when I cook. Aww sweet, but I would never say that out loud.
After a while we hear a knock "I got it!" I shout on my way to the door. When I open it I find Lissa and Dimitri. "Why did you knock?" I ask them. "Why did you guys lock the door?" Lissa asks back. "We didn't lock it" then we hear a voice pop-up "I might have locked it, sorry your majesty." Says hanks. We all turn around to look at him and we see that he is kneeling. "I guess I'm just so used to locking my door and everything." Lissa tells him to stand and that it's fine. Dimitri comes over to me and greets me with a big hug and kiss. "How was your morning?" he asks. "Pretty good, didn't realize I was so tired until I woke up feeling so much better."
"So I see that you found out about the guards outside of our door, did you get mad?" he asked kind of worried. "No not really, Lissa had informed me but I thought she was just bluffing, guess I should start to take some of her threats serious" we both chuckled. "To be honest I was shocked when I got out, no one had informed me until I asked Ryan and just gave me a are you crazy look, before he explained" he chuckled.
After everyone is done with breakfast Ryan and hanks were allowed to leave and continue on with their day until further notice. "So Rose, serious question" Lissa asked.
"Okay shoot!" I said everyone was quiet, "have you had anymore nightmares?" Lissa asked. I thought about it for a while before I shook my head "no, not recently, it's like it just… Stopped, out of nowhere, like it never happened." We all stayed quiet for a while.
Suddenly Lissa spoke up "the nightmare used to happen to me too around the same time as you, and they have stopped as well. You don't think it could have been a sprit dream do you?" she asked. "I don't know Lissa; we don't know any other sprit user." I stated
"That's the thing! We might not, we could be dealing with someone we don't even know." We all looked at her. "But if we don't know who it is why are they messing with you guys now" asked Christian. "I don't know but we should keep an eye out for who it could be, if we see anything out of place we have to be even more cautious, we don't know what or who we're messing with."
"You know, it could also be that someone might have hired a sprit user as well, I mean think about it, if you would want for someone to play out their worst nightmare how else would you do it?" everyone stood quiet for a while letting everything ive just mentioned sink in. Christian was the first to speak up.
"Rose actually makes a valid point, but then again like we have all been saying. It could be a total stranger that is doing this to get paid or it could be someone we know. For now I suggest we all lay low and keep out eyes and ears open."
I KNOW ITS SHORT BUT ITS WHAT I WAS ABLE TO COME UP WITH, I WILL TRY TO UPDATE SOON, BUT PLEASE LEAVE A REVIEW OR IDEAS IM OPEN TO IT. THANKS!
