Hi again. I have some more fluff. Oh, I made some changes to my last chapter. Mostly some changes to the timeline as well as to the title.
Edit: I moved chapter 4, “A Night Out” after several attempts to fix the messed up formatting, and I ended up deleting it and putting it as chapter 6. Sorry about the weird formatting. I tried fixing it at least 5 times, and had no success. That was the best I could get it. So sorry.
This is sort of a sequel to “In the Setting Sun” and is set a few weeks after they become engaged. Hope you all enjoy it, and please review.
Bright rays of the early evening sun streamed into the large windows, illuminating the room and its lone occupant in a brilliant golden hue. The auburn haired woman smiled, leaning her back up against the soft tan sofa cushion, a soft sigh escaping her lips as the early evening news echoed throughout the room.
The events playing out on the large televison had brought the smile to the woman’s face, as the peace talks between Orb and ZAFT were now official, as the television broadcast the scene of Chief Representative Athha shaking hands with the new Chairman of the ZAFT Supreme Council. Murrue couldn’t help but be elated that the fighting was officially over and that she had helped play a part in the drafting of the peace treaty.
Now we don’t have to worry about fighting again, she grinned, looking down at the sparkling diamond adorning her delicate finger. Mwu had proposed to her just a few weeks ago, but she still found it hard to believe it was really going to happen-that they were really going to be married in a few months. A pale blush creeped across her porcelain cheeks at the thought of becoming his wife. After the battle at Jachin Due, she never thought that she get to have a second chance with the man she had fallen so deeply in love with, but here she was, just a few months away from their wedding day. She still found it all incredibly unbelievable, and many times needed to remind herself that it wasn’t just a dream.
Murrue looked back up at the television screen as the reporters began discussing the official plans for the holiday tomorrow. It was the anniversary of the founding of her newly adopted country, the Orb Union, and there were many activities planned for the day.
Murrue had the day off, of course as did most of the other government employees, but she had also been give two weeks off after the peace talks were completed. She wished that Mwu had been given that time off as well, but she was glad that he had tomorrow off, as well as the weekend, so they could spend time together. The past several weeks had kept her extremely busy with work, requiring her to stay late into the evenings many nights, and sometimes she also found herself having to go to work early in the morning, as she had the double responsibility of overseeing the repairs and upgrades being made to the Archangel. She was relieved to know that she wouldn’t have to spend so much time at work now that the peace talks were complete.
The brunette relaxed into the plush sofa cushions as the daily weather report played out on the televison. She glanced over at the clock, a knowing smile forming on her lips. He’ll be home soon, she happily sighed, returning her eyes to the bright screen.
Her prediction proved to be right, as the door soon cracked open. The tall blonde man quickly made his way into the large room, a huge grin plastered across his face. “Hey there beautiful,” he snuck up behind her encircling her with his muscular arms, planting a kiss on her delicate cheek as he made his way to sit beside her on the sofa.
“Hi,” she smiled sweetly at him, her marigold orbs gazing into his cerulean ones. “I missed you. Wish you could’ve stayed home with me,” she looked up at him, a hint of sadness peeking through her eyes. “We haven’t gotten to spend too much time together...,” her voice trailed off.
“I missed you too, sweetheart, but I have tomorrow off, and the weekend too,” Mwu smiled reassuringly, his hand caressing the soft skin of her face before he gently pressed his lips against hers.
“There now, all better?” He wrapped his arm around her shoulder, bringing her closer as she rested her head against his shoulder.
“Yes, how come you always know exactly what to say?” She lifted her head briefly as she looked up into his ocean blue eyes, a hint of laughter to her voice.
“It’s a secret,” his eyes twinkled mischievously. “So how was your day?”
“It was okay. I didn’t really do all that much. I mostly just watched tv, and I did read some. Oh, and I played one of your video games,” she turned her head away, slightly embarrassed.
Mwu just laughed, a huge grin on his face. “That’s my girl. Which one?”
“The fighting game. It was kind of fun actually.”
“That’s good. You’ll have to let me play it with you,” the blonde colonel smiled, slightly surprised.
“Maybe..,” Murrue laughed. She had to admit she had a good time playing the game, and it was a good way to pass the time until he came home.
“So what do you want for dinner? I don’t know about you, but I’m starving,” he chuckled.
“Oh no, I forgot all about fixing dinner,” she gasped. “I’m sorry...I...,” she stammered an explanation, her cheeks burning red from her embarrassment.
“Murrue, honey, don’t worry about it. We can just go out to eat. You’ve been so busy lately, you’ve hardly had a chance to rest. You need to take some time for yourself too, ya know,” his hand rubbing her shoulder reassuringly.
“Thank you Mwu, I don’t know what I did to deserve you,” she smiled, relieved that he hadn’t been upset with her for forgetting to make dinner.
The blonde man chuckled. “I think I’m the one who doesn’t deserve you. You have no idea how happy you’ve made me these past few months,” he brought his mouth down to hers, as they both became lost in each other.
The need for air soon arrived, and the two eventually found it necessary to break the kiss. They just sat there, staring into each other’s eyes. The rumbling of Mwu’s stomach disrupting the silence. The blonde couldn’t help but laugh. “Guess I’m hungrier than I thought. How ‘bout we try that new Chinese food place downtown? The kid said it was really good. He said he took the pink princess there last week”
“That sounds good to me,” she laughed lightly as he helped her up from the soft cushions of the plush sofa. “Guess things are still moving slowly with them?” Murrue asked as they got into their blue car.
Mwu shrugged his shoulders. “Yeah, I guess so. He hasn’t said anything about that, and Athrun doesn’t seem to know too much about it either.”
Murrue shook her head, trying her best to stifle her laughter, but she found it impossible. “Well, look who’s become quite the gossip,” she giggled uncontrollably as the car sped towards its destination, the lights of the busy downtown district becoming more visible.
“Who, me?” Mwu couldn’t help but laugh too.
“Yes, you,” she managed to get out, still laughing hysterically.
“I’m just curious, that’s all. What about you? You were the one who asked about them,” he teased his fiancee playfully, his blue eyes twinkling with laughter as he returned his gaze to the road.
“Me?” She gasped, still laughing. “I’m not a gossip,” she stammered in between chortles.
“Yep, you are,” Mwu snickered.
Murrue sighed, her laughter subsiding. “You got me there, Mwu,” she resigned. “But I can’t help but feel sorry for Lacus. She looks so disappointed that Kira hasn’t made his move yet.”
“Yeah, me too, but I guess when the time is right, it’ll happen. Just like it did for us,” he winked playfully, his azure eyes shining in the dusk as they made their way to the restaurant.
The auburn haired woman immediately felt her cheeks go warm. She turned her head, attempting to hide her embarrassment, thankful that the windows were rolled down, the cool ocean breeze bringing instant relief.
“Looks like we’re here,” Mwu got out of the car, making his way over to the other side as he opened the passenger door for the brunette. Mwu found himself mesmerized by the sight of her lit up by the early evening moonlight, her soft green dress and long chocolate locks blowing gently in the breeze. She’s so beautiful, he mused, taking in the ethereal vision. The most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen....
“Mwu?” Murrue tilted her head, her marigold eyes full of confusion. “You okay?”
“Hm, oh yeah,” her voice startling him from his thoughts, his own long blonde locks blowing slightly as the breeze offered relief from the stifling summer heat. “Let’s get going. I’m starving. She has no idea the effect she has on me, he smiled as she wrapped her petite arm around his muscular one.
“Wow, this is a nice place. Kira was right,” Murrue looked around at the ornate decorations, taking in the atmosphere of the new business as they made their way to their table.
“Mwu! Murrue! Over here!” They both turned their heads, hearing their names being shouted above the noise of the busy restaurant, shocked to see Kira waving at them, sitting at a table with Lacus, Athrun, and Meyrin.
“Oh, I didn’t expect to see you guys here,” Mwu laughed.
“It seems you took my advice, Mwu,” Kira replied slyly, smirking at the older man.
“Yeah, well,” Mwu chuckled. “It sounded like a good place to eat.”
“Why don’t you two join us? There’s plenty of room,” Lacus offered, pointing to the two empty seats next to Kira.
Murrue looked up at Mwu, slightly confused. “You planned this, didn’t you?”
“You got me, I give up,” Mwu raised his hands in mock-surrender.
“We wanted to throw you two an engagement party,” Kira grinned, sitting back down in his seat, Mwu and Murrue sitting down beside the chocolate haired teen.
“Congratulations,” Lacus smiled. “We’re all so happy for you two,” the pink haired young woman continued as the waiter brought their drinks. The small group shared a toast to the happy couple, as well as to the newly formed peace. Everyone laughed as Murrue downed her drink in a couple of quick gulps, Mwu smiling proudly at her.
The evening passed with everyone reminiscing about the past and discussing future plans, including the upcoming wedding that would be taking place in a few months. The group enjoyed their meal, as well as each other’s company, smiling and laughing. Everyone had been so busy and hadn’t had any time to get together after the war had ended.
Murrue snuggled her head up against Mwu’s shoulder as the car made its way back to their home near the ocean. “Thank you, Mwu. I had a wonderful time,” she muttered sleepily, her eyelids growing heavy.
“I’m glad. It was the kid’s idea. That nosy kid,” Mwu laughed, gently stroking her hair, her head still resting on his broad shoulder. “Well, looks like we’re home,” he looked over at her, surprised to see her fast asleep, her topaz eyes shut tightly. She really has exhausted herself, he smiled at her sleeping form. Walking over to the passenger side of the car, he scooped her into his strong arms and carried her inside.
The brunette’s eyes fluttered open as Mwu gently laid her on the bed. “I’m sorry...I,” she attempted to stifle a yawn, but found herself unsuccessful.
“Shh,” he traced her face with his fingertips, brushing a few strands of stray hair out of her face. “You need to get some sleep. These past few weeks have been really hard on you.”
“But I’m not...,” she attempted to argue, but she found herself unable to fight her tiredness, her eyelids becoming heavier and heavier.
“I know, but you still need to get to sleep. I’m tired too,” he climbed onto the soft mattress next to her. He smiled as she immediately snuggled up against him, her warm breath tickling his skin.
“I love you Mwu,” she murmured softly, drifting off to sleep.
“Love you too, sweetheart,” he lightly kissed her forehead before falling asleep himself.
A/N: Okay, that was part one. Part two will be about the next day and will be up shortly. Hope you all enjoyed this, and please review.
