Conversations II
Une started to nibble delicately on the neck of her lover. "How did it go?" she whispered, enjoying the moan that her actions caused.
"They aren't talking. Duo wasn't there. And they were acting like he was out on a mission. They were bothered when I asked about him, but...I'm sorry Une I can't tell you one way or another if he's alive."
"I know. It was a long shot. Treize-sama is acting like nothing has happened, but I can see it in his eyes sometimes. He's worried. And very scared that his little paramour has been done in by the rest of those psychopaths."
"Does it matter? I think that between the two of us we can keep him... entertained." came the leering reply, with a low throaty laugh.
"While you might enjoy it, Treize-sama and I know that we aren't compatible. He thinks of me as a sister, nothing more."
"Are you sure Une? We can always try." was the purred reply.
"Relena, you may be clever enough to cover your real intentions with Heero and the others and may have convinced them that you are a brainless idiot, I know better. And you are not crawling into Treize-sama's bed!"
"Jealous?" was Relena's catty question, her brow arched and a teasing smile on her face.
"Cautious." Une replied firmly, ignoring the act that Relena was putting on. The woman of the world persona wasn't any closer to the real her then the brainless blonde teenager one.
"Why...don't you trust me?" Relena looked little and helpless. Not that she was, Une recognized that behind that scattered-brained façade was a mind that was as ruthless as she was about it goals. Relena may preach total peace and act like it was going to fall into her lap, but realized that the more helpless and scatterbrained she looked, the more the Romafellers were going to under estimate her.
"Not with your political motives. You are just making sure that no matter who wins this conflict, you and the Sank kingdom will come out relatively intact." Une growled back, biting Relena on the shoulder.
"And that's a bad thing how?" Relena moaned, enjoying the pain. Une was rough in bed most of the time. Relena was certain that the older woman was working off all her frustrations off with this affair. Just like she was. It was joy to be herself with someone. Not the façade of spoiled darling of Ambassador Darlian. Or the airhead pacifist that spoke against the Romafeller Foundation.
"Not bad, just smart." Une admitted grudgingly, "Now shut up and let me fuck you."
Relena was leaving when, giving Une one last kiss, when the older woman stopped her.
"Relena," she asked quietly, "would you ever send me flowers?"
Relena thought for a moment, wondering where this question had come from. "I don't know, I enjoy my time with you and it is a relief not to be something I'm not. Like I am with everyone else. I don't know if I would send you flowers. Why do you ask?"
"The first night that Duo and Treize-sama were together, Duo left early. I don't know why, but probably he wasn't too sure of what the dawn would bring. He isn't very trusting at times. But he sent roses as an apology for leaving, because he felt bad. That's why I am not letting you near Treize-sama, because he let himself fall in love with Duo for that little thoughtful gesture, more then he loved your brother. Who never did anything without thinking about how it would benefit him. And that relationship ended up hurting him a lot. Besides, I think there is something incestuous about sleeping with your brother's former lover."
"My brother and Treize?" Relena asked, stunned. "I had heard rumors, but.... That is strange. Because Noin told me that she and my brother were/are involved."
"He was sleeping with both of them for a time, and I don't think they knew. They could guess, but he never said anything."
Relena frowned, a look of distaste across her face. "That is just so...greedy."
