Left Behind

Again I woke in a hospital bed but this time without a respirator. This was starting to get old just like my encounters with fire using Moroi. But this time I was surprised. Tasha sat across the room crying on Dimitri's shoulder and Emily was watching her with a scowl etched on her little face. All sort of alarms went off in my head, well the anti-Tasha ones anyway.

"She's awake!" Emily said gleefully running towards me. Tasha hesitantly raised her head and looked at me. Then she turned back quickly looking up at Dimitri who gave her a stern look. Tasha got up and walked slowly towards me; it looked almost painful. When she reached my bedside I sat up waiting to see what she was going to do next. Tasha opened her mouth like she was going to say something and shut it, turning to look back at Dimitri, who looked back at her with a stolid face. And then Tasha turned back to me again.

"I'm . . . I'm sorry. I guess I overreacted. I've never really received rejection well. So to apologize Dimitri agreed to let me teach Emily some self-defense moves after school. After all she's been through I think I could help her." My head reeled; Dimitri had agreed to let who do what? I don't think so.

"No! I will not let you teach Emily anything in fact stay away from her." I said in a calm menacing voice. Dimitri shook his head with a frown.

"Tasha may I speak with Rose privately?" Dimitri said

"Of course." With that she nearly ran out of the room.

"Emily can you go with Tasha? I have to speak to Rose for a moment." Dimitri asked Emily kindly. Emily stood there with her arms crossed but she reluctantly obeyed.

"Rose I know you don't trust Tasha after what she did to you but she is very sorry about it, she not the most stable person in the world but I think you should trust her."

"Why should I? After what she did to me she be lucky if she ever gets a guardian. What she did was crazy and wrong and she needs some serious help. I don't know if I could forgive her."

"You're being very hypocritical."

"How? Because I don't trust that crazy bitch?"

"If you recall a couple weeks ago you did the same thing to me. You attacked me and I thought you were crazy and unstable too. I didn't want to forgive you but I did. I didn't have to but I did. If you can't forgive Tasha then I don't I can forgive you." Dimitri's words were a slap in my face. He did forgive me and I had done much more harm to him than Tasha had done to me.

"Tell Tasha that she can train Emily."

"I think you have to tell her yourself." Dimitri said, giving me a kiss on the forehead.

Sooooooo . . . what did you think? Hrash of Dimitri right?hahaha
