Chapter 11

Rose's POV

I couldn't believe what I saw or more like who I saw.

Christian and Aaron glaring at each other and Lissa just looking at them. Aaron was an ex of Lissa and we haven't seen him since she dumped him which was like 5 months ago. So it was a shock when I saw him standing there. I walk into the room and Lissa runs straight into my arms. She begins crying. I look at her and ask, "What happened?"

She looks at me and says, "Aaron just came in here and started yelling at me. He threw some stuff around the room, it scared me."

I looked away from Lissa and glare at Aaron. He looks at me and glares back. While glaring at each other, I say," Get out of here."

He replies, "No, not until Lissa takes me back."

I let Lissa go and walk over to Aaron. I look around the room and see broken glass and books on the ground. I say to Aaron, "Do you think she will ever take you back after what you did in here? I don't think she would. She will never take you back!"

His eyes hold anger in them and the next thing he does is try to punch me in the face. I obviously blocked it and twisted his arm behind his back. I led him to the door and threw him out. Before I shut the door he yelled, "You will regret this! I will kill you all!" Crazy boy.

I walk back to Lissa and hug her. Christian is just looking at the door. I look at Christian and ask, "How did you get here?"

He looked at me and said, "I was walking past, then I heard a noise. Saw that her door was open, saw what was going on, I had to help."

"Thank you." I told him.

He shrugged and said, "No problem."

I turned my attention back on Lissa. She was crying harder than before. How had I not noticed through the bond? Oh right, it was because I was having an awesome time with Dimitri.

I was rubbing Lissa's back and saying, "Shh... don't worry Lissa. He won't get near you. I'll protect you."

"I'll protect you too"

Lissa and I both looked at Christian. He just looked at us back. Then Lissa said, "Thank you, but you don't have to..."

"What are you talking about Liss? We want to protect you! Isn't that right Christian?" I said.

"Yep." he said.

I turn to Lissa. She stopped crying and smiled. But her emotions said that she was worried and scared about what Aaron had said. So I said, "C'mon Lissa, don't worry. You're safe. You won't be able to have fun at the ball tomorrow if you're worried and scared. We'll keep you safe!" then I smiled.

When I mentioned the ball, Lissa got excited and any form of worry and of being scared were gone.

I looked at Christian and saw that he was looking at Lissa. Then I looked at Lissa, she was looking at Christian. Their eyes held love. Love at first sight.

I cleared my throat and they looked away from each other. I made my way to the door and said, "So Lissa I'll see you at whatever time you wanna come over so we could get ready and Christian we'll see you at whatever time you're gonna pick up Lissa." They had confused looks so I said, "Oh did I forget to mention, you guys are going to go together." I smirked and they were both looking at me. Lissa then said, "But I'm already going with Adrian." I looked at Christian's face. He looked sad when she said that. But I will make her go with Christian, for safety and for the love they both have.

I said, "Don't worry, I'll tell Adrian that you and Christian are going together. I'm sure he would understand. So see you guys tomorrow." I then walked out of there and made my way to Adrian's room.

I made it to Adrian's room in about 5-10 minutes and knocked on his door. He answered it and I said, "Hey, do you mind if Lissa and Christian went to the ball together?"

He shrugged and said, "Nah, I don't mind. They're in love."

I looked at him shocked and said, "Hey, how did you..." then I remembered, he could see auras, "their auras..."

He laughed and said, "It seems like you forget that I could see auras."

I laughed and said, "Yeah... I keep forgetting."

We stood there quiet for a few seconds, then since we didn't have anything to talk, we said goodbye to one another and I made my way back to my room.

When I reached my room, I changed my clothes and then I immediately lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

~In the dream~

I was walking around the school campus wearing the dress that I was going to wear to the ball.

What is going on?

I kept walking and walking and then I reached a door. I opened it and inside was the gym. The gym had decorations, music was playing and there were already people dancing.

I walked in and suddenly someone wrapped an arm around my waist. I looked at who it was and it was Dimitri. He was smiling at me and I smiled back.

We didn't say anything. All we did was begin dancing to the music.

We did that for a few minutes then all of a sudden, the windows shattered and there was strigoi everywhere. Everyone began screaming and running trying to get out of the gym. I was frozen in shock. Then I heard a loud scream. A scream that I knew. It was Lissa's scream.

I ran to the direction of the scream and when I found her, Aaron was there as well. He was already holding Lissa by the neck and he smirked at me.

Then, he killed Lissa.

~End dream~

I shot out of bed. I was sweating.

What kind of dream was that...?

I looked at the clock and it was only 2am. I sighed and got out of bed to change clothes. After I changed, I went back into bed.

I just looked at the ceiling and tried to get the dream out of my head.

About 30 minutes later, my eyes got heavy and I fell asleep.
