The one with them (and Adrian)

Start from the beginning
                                    


"For how long is he staying again?" Dimitri asks as Rose gets up.


"For a week." She says helping him up. "And now he wants me to escort him to a meeting he has." She continues.  


"There are experienced guardians for this job." He says almost growling when Adrian shows up.


"Way. Too. Many. Stairs." He says panting and sweating.


"Not my fault. Told you to wait for me." Rose says picks up her bag and after a wink at Dimitri leaves with Adrian.  



Meeting took longer than expected and since she was cleared from all of her classes today Rose was standing with the rest of the guardians waiting for the end of this. She could swear she was seeing beams of sunlight coming through the small window at the waiting room.


"Can you keep an ear and let me know when they are done? I need some fresh air." Rose says to the guy next to her who nods.


She steps on the sideway and lifts her head up to see the pretty purple/orange colors that sky has when she feels arms wrapping around her stomach. Normally she would go on attack mode but now she had learnt to trust her gut (aka her new best friend nausea) and she knew the scent that now surrounds her.


"Guardian Belikov." Rose states and Dimitri laughs against her exposes neck.


"Novice Hathaway." He says following her example.


"I thought you had a class to teach." She says with her eyes still following the colors at the sky.


"In case you didn't check your clock it's almost seven in the morning. I was waiting for you to return but then I heard that you're still here so..."


"You came to find me." Rose completes his sentence. She turns her head a bit to rest it against his.


"Isn't it beautiful?" She asks referring to the sky.


"Peaceful I'd say." He responds and wraps his hands around her tighter.   


"Someone may see us." Rose says but she doesn't move.


"Follow me." Dimitri says and takes her hand leading her to an alley. A moment later she finds herself against a wall.


"I was looking around when we came and I didn't see this. Where did you even... Peripheral check rounds." She says with a smile and he nods.


"Always be prepared Roza." He says and bends his head to kiss her. His palm cupping her neck, his thumb caressing her jaw line.


"A tip for the future. Never say important things before you kiss me." She says and pulls him down for another kiss.


"Hathaway? They are done." The guy she left in charge over Adrian says.


"That's my queue." She says and runs away. "They took their time." Dimitri hears her say.


"Why is Belikov here?" Adrian asks her catching her by surprise.


"He is?" Rose pretentiously asks.


"That's for you to ask and never find out." Dimitri says and greets the guy next to Rose.


"Puppy." She whispers at him and bumps his arm with her shoulder.


He says something in Russian in return and leaves them.

On their drive back her phones lights up with a text.


"Get rid of your pet and come to my room."
