My Best Friend the Rockstar (Book 1 Steel Wolf Collection)

Chapter 46

"Baby,"  he sighs and when I don't respond he kneels in front of me. "Skylar." He is desperately trying to get my attention and brushing my hair from my face.

Hearing my name on his lips unglues me from my position and I launch myself into his arms. Since he was not expecting my movement we almost fall backwards, but Dimitri manages to keep us up right.

I burry myself into the side of his neck and he tries to get me to face him. "Baby you need to calm down and tell me what's wrong." I hate it when people tell you to calm down. I understand why they do, but its easier said then done. 

He must be getting frustrated with my silence because his next words are aimed at Aubree. "What the fuck happened?" He voices loudly to be heard over my sobs. "This is the last time she is riding the bus with you."  Dimitri warps his arms around me and rocks me back and forth.

"Dimitri I swear I didn't do anything. We were taking a break when she got a phone call." Aubree says wringing her hands. 

He kisses the top of my head, "do you know who called her?"

"Sorry I don't."

"What is going on with my bestest best friend? We can hear her all the way outside." Tray says barging into the room. My eyes meet his deer in the headlight eyes. "Sky you know I love you and I'll be here to get you to laugh, but this is out of my element." He slowly back from the room. "I'll be out here if you need me."

"Aubree can you please shut the door and give us a minute. Go ahead and tell the drivers to get back on the road." Dimitri says taking charge.

Once the door shuts he continues to hold me through my tears whispering soothing words. At some point he manages to pick me up off the floor and bring me to the bed where we cuddle. Eventually my sobs quite and I'm able to form words.

"Can I get a glass of water," I croak though my dry throat.

"Of course baby," he says kissing the top of my head. "I will be right back."

As I lay there waiting for him to return my thoughts flood my brain. What am I going to do now? All I've ever wanted to do is be a teacher and now that dream has been ripped from me. Sure I could apply at other schools, but who would hire me. I could give up Dimitri. I don't even finish that thought. Teaching was a dream, but so is he. I'm sure I can find somethings else that is fulfilling.  

At least the school said they would rehire me if I was no longer with Dimitri. This way I'm not completely up shits creek if we were to separate. For my own sanity I need to have a back up plan when it comes to him because of choices we both made in the past.

Dimitri enters the room and hands me an opened water bottle. I drink almost half before coming up from air. My tears have finally slowed to almost nonexistent.

"Ready to talk now?" He asks sliding into the bed next to me and gathering me in his arms placing kisses all over my face and neck.

"The phone call I got was from the Superintendent of my school district," I can feel him nod his head as I speak. I sniffle a bit through the next part. "They informed me that due to my relationship with you there were major safety concerns and they...," I freeze on the last word.

Dimitri hold me closer and waits for me to finish my thought. This was one of the many reasons I love him. He never forces me. 

"let me go," I finally say past my quivering lips.

"Baby. I'm sorry. So so sorry," his eyes get a faraway look as though he is in deep thought. Then he springs up so fast I almost knock my head against the headboard. He really needs to to work on being aware of his surroundings when ideas come to him. First he dumped me on the floor and now this. Either that or I need to start wearing protective gear around him.
