Return To Me – Chapter 6

A/N: I've had a few questions about the women at the bar. Well my answer to that is that you're just going to have to wait to find out;) Oh and as requested a Dimitri POV. It will be brief though, sorry!

Dimitri POV:

"I really am sorry Roza, you'll never know how much you meant to me. I loved you...I love you."

I look down to find Roza passed out on my shoulder. I wonder how much of that she heard. She looks so peaceful when she sleeps. I manage to get up without disturbing her and go and turn her stereo off. I then turn around and gently pick her up deciding to not let her wake up on the couch.

I walk down the hallway and almost trip over Rose's shoes. I briefly wonder how she walks in those things, they look like deathtraps to me. I carry Rose up the stairs, wondering where Rose's bedroom is. I try the door closest to the staircase and find pink everything. Nope, that's definitely not her room. The next door leads to a bathroom which leaves me with two more options. I can feel Rose nuzzling herself into my shoulder, which momentarily distracts me. I gaze down at the beauty in my arms and mentally punch myself in the face for not taking her with me to Russia. My family would've loved her, just as I do. I open the third door to finally find what appears to be Rose's room. I place Rose gently onto the bed which has red bedcovers, matching her personality perfectly. I decide against changing her into her pyjamas even though I have seen everything that's underneath those clothes. I need a way to explain to her what happened four years ago and looking at her sleeping peacefully I decide on the perfect plan. Hopefully Roza will appreciate this..

Rose POV:

I wake up to find myself surprisingly comfortable. I open my eyes, regretting it instantly. My eyes try to adjust to the light surrounding me. How the hell did I get to my room? I look around slowly remembering what happened last night. Oh, Dimitri must have carried me her. Wait, is he still here? I look for a sign that he might still be around. Luckily, I find none. Thank god. I don't know what I'd have done if he was here. My stomach starts growling quite loudly. Okay stomach, I can take a hint. I get up, obviously hungry, with my head still pounding. How much did I drink last night? The last thing I can remember was sitting with Dimitri. I manage to shuffle down the stairs and into the kitchen and the first thing I reach for is some paracetamol. After taking them, I reach for my phone and dial Lissa's number just to check that she's still alive. It rings a few times and then I hear giggling on the other end. The I hear Liss say "Shh it's Rose" The giggling and the laughing then dies down "Hey Rose."

"Hi, just checking to see that he hasn't murdered you." I say, humour tinging my voice.

"No Rose, I'm fine, no murdering yet. I've already been home actually but you were passed out."

"Wait, so if you've already been home, where are you now?!"

"Calm down. I'm only next door. I said I'd help Christian move in."

"Eugh I'd forgot they were moving next door today. Is he there?"

"No, he's gone to go and get some more stuff."

"Good, I'll be there in five."

"Okay, see ya."

"Bye." I say, hanging up.

Putting my phone down, I grab a donut from out of the kitchen and run up the stairs to my bathroom. Quickly brushing my teeth I think about what happened last night I remember that I've got to ring Adrian today. After washing my mouth with mouthwash I walk into my room and grab Adrian's card out of my jeans. Putting it down on my desk I decide to deal with it later. I sit down at my vanity and run my fingers through my already straight hair. I then start to quickly apply my usual makeup which consists of a little bit of concealer to cover my dark circles and eyeliner and mascara. After I finish I get up and walk over to my windows to check what the weather is like outside. It's sunny outside and so it's probably really warm. I then proceed to walk over to my closet and pull out a pair of distressed black shorts and a multicoloured tye dye crop top. I then dress quickly and walk over to my full length mirror and take a quick look at myself. I guess this will have to do. After I find my white studded converse I slip them onto my feet. I then make my way down the stairs and outside but when I reach the front door I see an envelope sitting on the floor. I reach down to pick it up and turn it over in my hands. I see that it's a handwritten letter addressed to me. Who the hell could be writing me a letter?
