Hello Everyone! This is my first FanFic, so please bear with me. Also, I would greatly appreciate reviews and/or comments. By the way, this is a Vampire Academy FanFiction, and I don't own any of the characters, Richelle Mead does!

In an undertone, I murmured, "This isn't over. I won't give up on you." "I've given up on you," he said back, voice also soft. "Love fades. Mine has." I stared at him in disbelief. All this time, he'd never phrased it like that. His protests had always been about some greater good, about the remorse he felt over being a monster or how it had scarred him from love. I've given up on you. Love fades. Mine has. I backed up, the sting of those words hitting me as hard as if he'd slapped me. Something shifted in his features, like maybe he knew how much he'd hurt me. I didn't stick around to see. Instead, I pushed my way out of the aisle and ran out towards the doors in the back, afraid that if I stayed any longer, everyone in the church would see me cry.

As I trekked back to my room in silence, Dimitri's words replayed over and over in my mind like a broken record. How could his love fade? How could he even say something like that? I knew he saw what his words had done to me in the church. But, what he didn't know is that I saw how much it hurt him to say those words to me.

I decided to go to Adrian's room on a whim. Five syncopated knocks on his door, and I was inside.

"Little dhampir, why are you so sad?" he asked, concerned.

He wrapped a gentle arm around my shoulders and pulled me inside.

"D-Dimitri," was all I had to say before the deluge of water that had threatened to erupt from my eyes did. And, it was all the explaining that Adrian needed. He hugged me tightly, and whispered soothing words into my hair, and for a moment, just a moment, I wished that I could stay like this forever. Finally, he rested his hands on my shoulders, and looked me straight in the eyes.

"Rose," he said. "I know that your ex-boyfriend is a dhampir again, and I know I should be extremely jealous, but I am not."

I gave him a questioning look before he continued.

"Hell, scratch that. I am extremely jealous. But, I knew this would happen. It was him all along. Dimitri. He was taken and you were taken, and I knew that, but I loved you nonetheless."

I sniffled, shocked slightly by his honest admission. But nothing could prepare me for the next words that came out of his mouth.

I know, I know. I ended it On a cliffhanger. I promise I will write the Next chapter Soon, maybe later today As it is only Quarter to Eleven where I live. Thanks for reading, and Please, Please, please Review!

(Oh, and I Apologise for The funky capitalization in This Bolded Part.)

Until Later!
