Love fades, mine hasn't

Chapter three: the flight

"You do? Well that's good for you! You know, normal people would just say their name back instead of creeping the other one out." I was really shocked that he knew me, but I hide it with attitude, like always, right?

"Well then it's a good thing that I'm not normal, right? Because normal people are boring." Hmmm, I think I begin liking this guy! He had the same way of thinking as me.

"Maybe? But may I ask you two things? First: who are you? Secondly: why do you know my name!?" He just stays sitting there with an annoying grin on his face.

"Well I'm Will Tarus. And I know because who doesn't know you? You killed more strigoi than any other guardian ever did at your age!" Royal huh? That's why he's got that attitude.

"Good that I made an impression. Now why are you here?" He looked at me questionably.

"You don't know? You'll be my Guardian at the academy, but not my head guardian and you will also teach." Oh that was something Hans forgot to mention. Not that it's something huge, protecting someone's live. -Sarcasm, My best friend-Ugh, I could kill Hans now, he was exactly like Stan! Just as annoying and he hates me too!

"Oh then nice to meet you! But if I may ask, why do you need another Guardian? There will be tons at the academy!" He raised his eyebrow -one eyebrow! How dare he!- and frowned.

"From which academy do you come?" Ok. Weird question? I answered it anyway.

"Saint-Vladimir. Why? And I thought you knew everything about me! As my biggest and only fan you should've know that!" Royal or not, I still am Rose Hathaway after all. Always joking or being sarcastic.

He grinned evilly and said, "I don't want to look like a stalker. St. Vlad is ten times better than St. Basil. There are only a few female guardians and even less female novices. You'll feel very special and beloved with all that male attention." He winked "You've certainly got mine!" I was about to say something back but I got pulled into Lissa's head.

She was in her room with a furious Adrian. He had walked in a few seconds ago with the letter I'd written for her.

Adrian, not bothering with politeness, came just storming into her apartment.

"What's wrong with you?" Lissa asked frustrated. I think I never saw Adrian so furious. The look he gave Liss was one of pure hate.

"What's wrong with me? You ask me what's wrong? YOU ARE! Unbelievable that you don't get it! You don't have any friends, Vasilisa, not any more. HOW COULD YOU DO THAT TO ROSE! How could you! She was your best friend! She loved you and gave everything up for you! She did everything to become your guardian! And that's how you thank her? YOU BITCH! YOU EGO CENTRIC SELFFISH BITCH!" His cheeks were red because he was that angry. Oh poor Adrian. Don't work your frustration out on Lissa.

"Well, she deserved it! Besides, she's easy to replace! So are you guys! I don't need you! I can make my own friends! I have my own friends!" Now she was mad too. And to be honest those words hurt. But it was obvious that she wasn't herself, if only my friends saw that too. But Adrian calmed down tough and shook his head.

"The worst is that she forgave you. I can't believe she forgave you! She loved you and Belikov more than anything and you hurt her so bad. Yet she forgave you both." He kept shaking his head.

"You know what? You're not worth it. I just came to give you this. It's a letter from Rose, you know? She actually wrote you a goodbye letter. Not that you even care but it was her last wish, that I gave this to you." She gave him a mean smile.

"Exactly. I don't care about her! She's a bitch and always will be! I don't want her stupid letter! "That hurt too. A lot. Adrian looked at her straight faced.

"Then it's the last time I'll ever speak with you.'' He slammed the door shut behind him and left her behind, alone. She stared at the envelope. She recognized the paper. It was the same paper her parents bought me for my Christmas when we were five because then I could write letter to my mom. Lissa had told her parents that I missed her so much and couldn't contact her.

It was beautiful paper and I always kept it after failing to write a letter to her. Lissa said that one time I could use them to write to people who were worth it. A wave of guilt flew through the bound. It quickly passed away.

She became curious and opened the envelope.

Dear Lissa

I know you're mad at me and that you'll probably never going to talk to me again. Hell! Maybe you don't even read this but I wanted to let you know. I would always have protected you good. I love you Liss, you're the sister I never had. And I wanted to tell you, you loosed me because of something stupid, a guy! No you didn't lose me. I'll always be there for you, if you like it or not. Just don't push yourself away from all your friends. They may be mad now but don't let your friends go! Remember Christian? The guy who loved you for who you are/were? You've been such a bitch to him that I almost saw him cry! He's the love of your life! Go make it up! It may be too late for me since I'm on the plane right now but with him it's not too late yet. You'll regret it if you don't do it. I know you. You love him.

I love you Liss, no matter what. Don't forget that.

Rose

Lissa began ripping the paper in pieces. Feeling that I was there she said through the bond 'I don't need you. I don't need anyone. You mean nothing to me anymore.'

I wanted to pull away but she held me there. Up to Dimitri's room. Oh no, this can't be good.

"Lissa? What are you doing here?" She pulled him to her and kissed him. It hurt more than the words she said. How could she?!

I pulled away and found myself crying back in the plane with Will looking concerned about me. "You okay? You were looking really creepy."

I shook my head. "What's wrong, Rose? Maybe I can't help the situation but you can always talk to me. That could help."

I nodded. "You've read my file?"

"Wait, you're not upset about that right? Because ..." I cut him off.

"No! You know about the bond?" he nodded. "I was just in Lissa's head and she did something horrible. But it's a long story and I don't want to annoy you or something..." He rolled his eyes.

"It's not that because I'm royal that I'm a jerk who doesn't care about someone else. I have time.'' He gave me honest smile. And I started telling this complete stranger my life story.

AN: It's been forever, hasn't it? Sorry! But the good news: I've been on vacation so that meant: time to write! I'll try to update more often? Review or share please! :D
