Chapter 2

 

“Relena, you know I hate dresses, they make me look too young. Why can't I just wear what I normally do?” Katrina had been complaining about the ball at Relena's mansion for quiet some time now, and it was rattling Relena's nerves. “You will wear a dress because it suits the occasion. Also, I want you to relax, and if you wear a suit, it will be harder for you to mingle with the guests.” Relena's voice was kind but stern, and Katrina new that she would be stuck wearing the dress. Katrina was Relena's personal bodyguard, and for the first time in a while, she was off duty for one of these political events. Katrina was a full member of the Preventers after a few weeks of intensive training after her condition. But, the friendship that Katrina had with Heero and Duo was becoming a dangerous attraction. Every meeting and delegation that Relena and Kat went to, they were there. However, since tonight was a social event, if she ran into the two, she wouldn't have her job to fall back on as a scapegoat. Too bad Relena wasn't going to change her mind, because Kat was seriously trying to find excuses not to have to go down stairs. Relena was dressed in a pink dress that swept the floor. It was sleeveless and seemed to mold to her. Katrina, on the other hand, was in a midnight blue strapless dress. Her body seemed to pour into the outfit, and she looked at her appearance in distaste. The only reason that she had to go was because she was off duty and she knew that Relena had planned it that way. The ball was to commemorate peace, and since she was forced to go, Kat would try to act a bit civil. Kat was so lost in her dark thoughts that she didn't realize that they had descended the stairs. When she managed to regain her bearings, Relena was telling her to mingle with the guests as they arrived. Giving a small smile, Katrina went down a quiet corridor as Heero and Duo entered the mansion.

Sighing in boredom, Kat decided to look at the paintings in this wing. They were quiet old and held much beauty and solace, but Kat couldn't attach to any of them. From the corner of her eye, she noted one. The artist was Monet, and it was a picture of a calm lake covered in leaves. Smiling at the beauty, Katrina began to wonder where that place was on Earth. She was so absorbed into looking at the painting, that when a hand touched her shoulder, she jumped. Spinning around, her chest tightened and a smile was plastered on her face and she said, “Heero, Duo, I wasn't expecting you two to be down here. Are you enjoying the party?” The look in the eyes of both men sent shivers down her spine, but her mask never wavered. Duo stepped forward and put his hand on her arm. “Actually we were looking for you.” Surprise leaked through her eyes before she hid it again, “Why were you looking for me?” Kat noticed the grin on Heero's face, and got weak in the knees. Now, both men were equally handsome, but you got Duo onto a dance floor, or Heero to show emotion, and both men were oozing sex. Swallowing and looking for an answer, she peered at Duo. “Relena wanted you to attend the party, not the paintings in the hallway.” Heero gave Kat a mock glare, and she burst out laughing. “That's something Relena would do.” While Kat looked at the piece one last time, Heero and Duo exchanged a knowing look. “Well, let's not make her wait, shall we.” But as she tried to walk away, Duo's hand tightened, and he pulled her to him. Just as she opened her mouth to ask what was wrong, he kissed her.

Shock would be an understatement to what she was feeling. Yes she did dream about Duo and Heero as of late, but she never imagined it this way. A moan escaped her lips as another set of lips descended along her neck, and her mind lost all rational thought. Tentatively, Kat kissed back and began to wonder which God she should thank for this lucky turn of events. Heero's lips on her neck latched onto a rather sensitive spot making her gasp, and giving Duo the opportunity to deepen the kiss. His tongue probed her mouth and traced every crevice and indent that he could reach. Tapping her tongue to come out and play, Katrina shyly began to tangle her tongue with Duo's and got more involved in her making out session. From where Heero was he could tell that Kat was enjoying herself by the telltale blush on her cheeks. Spotting the room, that he and Duo had used many times, he began to steer the three of them towards the other side of the hall. “Kat,” The moan was needy and filled her ear with Heero's husky voice. Breaking her kiss with Duo, Kat was spun around and crushed to Heero's chest as he began to ravish her mouth. Duo noticed Heero's trajectory and continued bring them to the room. At the end of the hall the trio did not see Relena, Quatre, Trowa and Wufei looking upon them with knowing and happy eyes. “She needs this. Her body has to get involved with someone before she collapses into what Heero had fallen into.” Relena stated as the other three nodded. “I just hope she doesn't get hurt.” Quatre said as the quartet made their way back to the party.

Duo had just managed to enter the trio into the room, while Katrina and Heero were mapping out each other's mouths. Looking around the room, Duo noted that it was the room that he and Heero visited often enough when ever Relena had a party. Smirking at the irony, Duo began o work on the back of Kat's dress. As Duo's cold hands moved down the back of her dress, Katrina's mind rushed back in record time. With a chocking sob, she broke the kiss with Heero, and sat on the nearby table to calm herself and her beating heart. Looking at the two, she noted that they were flushed in pleasure, and she noticed something different in their eyes. “What's going on?” Her voice sounded weak and confused to her, and she saw the expressions on the others faces soften. “What do you two want? If this is a joke, you're both pretty sick.” Her voice dropped at the last sentence, and they sat beside her. Duo put his hand, on her back, and noted that it was rigged with tension. “Kat, we both realized how special you were when we were helping you when Jack was to be put away. If this was a joke, we would not have brought you into a private room, and we would have told you before hand.” Duo's voice and words calmed her somewhat, but she was still confused. Before she could speak, he continued, “We can't do this with anyone else, because we don't want to, and even if we also wanted the others, there are factors. Like, Relena is married to her job, Wufei is married to Sally, and Quatre is happily married to Trowa.” Their words replayed in Katrina's mind, and she could tell that they were loosing hope, but she still didn't understand why they would want her. Looking at the pair in disbelief, she said, “But you have each other, why would you want someone like me, I'm nothing special.” Feeling a pair of hands grabbing her chin, Heero turned her towards him. “You are something special. You've survived things that no one should be subjected to, and you've made a life for yourself. Not only have you surpassed where many have failed, you've proven yourself to be a powerful woman.” Seeing the truth in Heero's eyes, Katrina blinked back the tears. Keeping his gaze, Kat spoke, “Then how would we deal with my job and everything else? As Relena's personal body guard, I have to stay by her side; I even sleep in the room beside hers just in case.” “We've asked Relena if she would be willing to accept another personal body guard, since they should be changed every three to four years, unless the contract is renewed.” Duo said. Letting the information sink in, a small smile appeared on Katrina's face before she leaned in and kissed Heero. Feeling Duo redoing her dress, she wrapped her arms around Heero's waist. Once Duo was finished, Heero began a trail of kisses and nibbled down her neck, and Duo was doing the same on the other side. Before she lost all sense of reality, she gasped out, “Relena will be worried. She sent you two to come and get me. She'd wanted me to have attended the party for once.” Feeling the two moans of disappointment, Katrina added, “Since there are no guest rooms ready, you two can stay with me tonight, considering the Vice Foreign Minister will be tired.” Kat felt two smiles on her neck, and Duo said, “Lead the way, Miss Head of Security, Relena awaits our return.” Laughing the three made their way to the main hall and spotted the others. Weaving through the crowds, the trio managed to get beside Relena. “Katrina, are you enjoying yourself and mingling?” Smirking Kat replied, “I was found by these two in the art gallery.” Pointing to Heero and Duo she continued, “And they're trying to get me to mingle.” Relena looked over Katrina's appearance and said, “You took your hair down.” Forcing a blush off her face, Kat said, “Well it was that or change into a tuxedo. I still would prefer the tuxedo.” Relena's face took on a look of humorous horror, and Katrina laughed as she was pulled by the five ex-pilots to enjoy herself. Relena smiled as her friend followed the five young men and continued playing hostess.

The group of six mingled with many dignitaries and eventually found Lady Une. “Ah, Miss Carter; I'm glad to see that you are well.” Lady Une spoke with a clipped business tone, and Kat replied, “Yes, I was informed earlier that personal bodyguards are changed every three to four years, depending if their contracts are to be renewed; is that true?” Nodding in acknowledgement, the Lady continued, “Yes, also, you have been qualified for training in our organization. Mr. Yuy and Mr. Maxwell would train you to work on their team, considering your ability to work in their fields is best. You will be taught weapons handling, bomb squad, and infiltration. Do you accept the new position?” Thinking over the new position, Kat realized that the change would help her relationship with Heero and Duo. Looking up at Lady Une, she replied, “Yes, but who will take my place as Relena's personal bodyguard?” Smiling at the woman's dedication to her job, Lady Une replied, “Miss Dorothy Catalonia will be Miss Peacecraft's new bodyguard. She is as dedicated as you are, and she's wanted this position for a while.” Nodding in consent, Katrina signed her new contract and received all the pertaining information for her new job. Once that was done, Katrina continued to mingle with Heero and Duo.

Just as the evening came to a close, a loud scream was heard. Pulling out her weapon, Katrina went in search of Relena. When she found her, she saw the most shocking sight. Relena was being protected by Dorothy, but Lady Une was being held hostage by no other than Jack Crane. Hiding in the crowd of people Katrina made her way to Jack's side. Soon her weapon was at his head, and she said, “Let the woman go, and you get to live sir.” Recognizing the voice, he said, “So you are here, you pompous tramp. I had a feeling that you would be near Miss Peacecraft tonight.” Kat saw Heero and Duo from the corner of her eye, and kept Jack talking, “So you got out, or broke out, that's my guess. Also, you probably stole a car to get here and killed a guard or another agent considering there's blood on the gun you're holding. Were you that desperate to see me? You could have sent me a message internally you know, I would have gotten it.” A harsh laugh came from his throat as he let Lady Une go. “Because of the Preventers, you left me. I had to get you back somehow.” Knocking him onto the floor, Jack was cuffed and Katrina's cold voice filled the air, “I left an abusive relationship to get my life back. To keep my new life, I'll stay away from people like you.” Jack thrashed and struggled to break free. As he was being dragged away, he yelled, “I'll get you yet, bitch!” Tired eyes looked to Relena, and asked, “Are you alright?” Nodding her head, Relena allowed Dorothy to bring her upstairs while Katrina checked upon Lady Une.

After all of the hassle of concerned guests and arranging secure ways for people to go home, Katrina finally stumbled into her room. Forgetting that she had invited Duo and Heero to stay with her, she jumped when she heard Duo say, “Everything's fine now?” Nodding as a source of response, she staggered to her desk. Feeling calloused hands on her shoulders, Katrina allowed herself to be guided to the dimly lit bed. Sitting down, expert hands removed her make-up and undid the ties in her hair. Gentle hands skimmed over her face, and she heard Heero say, “You've been working to hard, you need sleep and a change to relax.” His words were soft and his hands began to work on her shoulders. The light massage relaxed her so much, that she didn't feel her two guns being removed, nor did she feel the back of her dress being undone, nor did she notice her stockings were being removed either. Only when she felt the open breeze, hit her back, did Duo give her a pajama top. Slipping it on, the other two finished taking off the dress, and allowed her to finish her nightly ritual. Pleased that Relena was safe in her room, and made her way beck to bed, with sleep on her mind. However, Duo and Heero were clad in only pajama bottoms and wanted a bit more than sleep.

Just as she was about to sit on the bed, Duo pulled her onto his lap. Before she could move, Heero had taken a seat in hers. Just as she was about to complain, Heero latched his mouth onto hers, and snaked his arms around to Duo back, and braced the three of them together. Duo began to nibble and suck on her ear and neck, making her moan into Heero's mouth. Grabbing her hips, Duo began to rock them back and fourth, causing the three to moan. Katrina's Mind was racing to all of the different sensations that she was feeling. The attack of both mouths on her was making her light headed, and the rocking of hips was causing a pressure to mount in her abdomen. Her moans and whimpers were becoming more frequent since she was grinding into Heero's erection, and Duo's was causing a pleasant reaction in the clef of her ass. Breaking the kiss to breathe, Heero's mouth began to trial wet kisses down her neck. Slowly forming a question, Katrina asked, “What…<Pant>happens …<whimper>tomorrow…<Moan>?” Both lips and hips stilled causing Katrina to moan at the loss of friction. “We move you in with us, since Dorothy starts tomorrow.” Heero stated as two pairs of hands stroked her hips and sides. The three collapsed onto the bed in a tangle of arms, legs, and unruly hair. “Pull my hair while I sleep, and there will be hell to pay in the morning.” two light chuckles were heard as they fell asleep.

Katrina's internal clock woke her, and when she couldn't move, the previous nights events came back in a rush. Poking Heero, she managed to wiggle off the bed to shower and change. The settings of change made Katrina wonder what Lady Une meant by familiar territory. Stepping out of the shower, Katrina got dressed in a pair of blue jeans and a black tank-top, and saw that Duo had snuggled over closer to Heero. Smiling, she began to pack her belongings into two boxes and three duffle bags. Looking back to the bed, Katrina noticed that the breathing patterns changed. “Get up sleepy heads; we need to go so Dorothy can move in. Up or I room with Trowa and Quatre!” Two heads shot up and Japanese curses began to stream from the bed. Laughing, Katrina pointed to the bathroom and said, “Showers are through there.” Blowing a kiss to the pair, Kat made her way to check on Relena, only to run into Dorothy on the way. Smiling, Kat gave Dorothy a full list of what Relena liked and disliked, while Dorothy gave her a warning about the two agents that she would now be working with. Laughing again, the two entered Relena's room. The Minister was already dressed and Katrina stepped forward to hug her good-bye. “Thank you for everything Relena. You helped me so much over the past four years. I promise to keep in touch.” Katrina said, forcing her tears back. A smile graced Relena's lips and she replied, “If you don't contact me, I'll hound you worst than I hounded Heero through out the wars.” Kat's eyes went wide, remembering the tales that Relena and Duo told her about how she was a lovesick school girl; and she made a mental note to send a message, via email, to Relena every week and meet her at least once a month. Turning to Dorothy, Katrina said, “Take care of her, and make sure she gets out every now and then, considering she just lets herself get swamped in work. She loves shopping, so indulge her every now and then.” The wink Kat got was given proof that Dorothy knew what she had to do. Leaving Relena and Dorothy alone to discuss the new parameters, Katrina went back into her room. Upon entering, Katrina was surprised to see the two boxes in Heero's hands, and Duo had the two heaviest duffle bags. Smiling, Kat picked up the last bag, and the three made their way to a small truck outside that would lead to a new experience. Hopefully things would go as she planned.
