SLEEPLESS IN THE SANC KINGDOM
(By Pamela Ann Sanada)


Chapter 7 (Brunch is Served)



Two sets of beautiful blue eyes with sleep in them met one another at the same time.

"Still here, I see," Heero teased.

Giving him a playful swat on the chest, Relena blushed. "Oh, Heero..."

They both stretched at the same time and came back together in a hugging sigh. Then a kiss inflamed them both, so Heero shifted to gain better access to her body. He ran his hand slowly over her soft, now willing body and felt all the right places. Finally settling his hand between her tights. He gently started to probe her with his fingers. She was already wet and warm but she made a face of pain, which concerned him immensely.

"Sore?" His question was precise and to the point.

Relena shook her head in agreement.

"I got an idea," he said half to himself.

"What's that?"

"Just meet me in the bathroom in ten, okay?"

"Okay," she echoed.

Heero then vacated the bed and disappeared into the bathroom, soon the water was running in the tub.

Relena just lounged there in the warm spot left by Heero's body, inhaling his scent and was almost lulled back to sleep by the sound of the running water.

But then she was brought out of her blissful state by a knock at the door.

Her eyes flew open. "OH, GOD...Brunch!" She almost forgot that it's served at eleven a.m. on the weekends.

Relena scurried from the bed to get the door before the servant knocked again. Fumbling to get her robe on, she was still tying it as she opened the door to quickly take the tray before Heero caught wind or worse trotted from the bathroom butt-naked.

After successfully securing the belt, her eyes met up with the tray of cold finger treats, differnt kinds of fruit and pot of hot raspberry tea. She spoke her maid's native tongue of French as she went to relieve the weight from her hands.

"Merci très beaucoup, Lily, te avoir besoin pas venir verso pour le plateau." Relena told her. (Thank you very much, Lily, you need not come back for the tray).

Then a familiar female voice not belonging to her maid's said, "Te sommes bienvenir et construire pas agacent, moi volonté pas." (You are welcome and do not worry, I will not).

Relena looked up, her eyes popped out of her head and she almost shouted, "LUCrezia?! You're home?! Uhhhh, is my brother with you?" She looked around the hallway almost expecting her brother to pop out of the shadows.

"No, he is still with Quatre. He'll be home in time for dinner, though." She informed her soon to be sister-in-law as she pushed past her intent on putting the heavy tray down on the patio table. "We flew in this morning on Quatre's private shuttle because he had some emergency with his office here and your brother stayed with him to finish up their business." Noin rambled on while she set the food down then walked over to Relena. "And I thought we could spend the afternoon together and talk. Since I haven't seen you much lately with the wedding plans and all." Her brother's fiancé took her arm in hers and began to lead her out on the lanai as she finished speaking. "So come on and let's eat! Shall we?!"

Relena wracked her brain to think of a good excuse as to why she couldn't spend the day with her. Other than telling her she was preparing to stay in this room all day making love with one Heero Yuy. But just then he called to her from the bathroom making light of the fact that he was there.

"RELENA, COME ON THE TUB IS FULL NOW!"

Noin stopped dead in her tracks. Relena sucked in a breath and waited for Lu's reaction.

Turning to face Relena, she clenched the younger woman's elbows and with wide eyes asking in a hushed, surprised but amused pitch, "IS THAT HEERO?!"

Not sure how to take Lu's demeanor, the sandy blonde shook her head yes as worry lines creased her brow.

"OOOOOOHHHHH, WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME?!" A smile lit up the face of the raven-haired woman and she giggled like a schoolgirl. She then moved swiftly to the door to make an exit.

"Ohh, gosh...Luuu...wait, wait!" Relena chased her and grabbed her arm before she got all the way out the door. And keeping with a muted voice implored, "Please! Please, don't tell Milliardo! You wont, will you?"

"Oh, honey, I am sure he'll be as happy as I am for you, sweetheart!"

"Are you sure?" Relena inquired.

"Sure, he loves you and he just wants you to be happy, Relena. You are happy, right? I mean you're just glowing, girl!" Noin said, winking one violet eye at the now-blushing girl.

And her usually fair skin glowed ever more as she proudly announced, "Yeah, he told me he loved me this morning."

"Oh, Relena, that's wonderful!" Her tone was elated for her friend and she was glad to hear she now had that feeling of love with Heero like she did with Zechs.

"RELENA?!" Heero's voice once again carried throughout the room. Putting a timely end to their conversation.

So, Noin slipped further into the hallway pulling the door more closed as she went exclaiming quietly, "You better get in there!" Then added, pointing an index finger at her but giggled, "And I wanna hear all the details about this later! You go it?!"

"Okay...hehe."

Relena shared in her enthusiasm as they carefully closed the door together just before Heero bellowed for her again. This time he came out of the bathroom wrapped in nothing but a towel at the waist.

"Relena? What's keeping you?" His eyes swept the room to meet up with her white silk-clad form closing the bedroom door. "Who was that?" his tone being inauspicious.

She turned to answer him quickly but she couldn't look at him because she knew she would smile like a goof and then tried not to lie. "They brought up brunch." She crossed the room still avoiding his intense Prussian blue scrutiny while gesturing at the table.

"Ah, yes, brunch at eleven a.m. sharp every weekend." He muttered taking in full well just how much food was piled on the tray. "Well, that's quite a lot of food for one person there, Relena."

She looked up at him briefly then bit her lip glancing away, thinking of some explanation. "Well, chef was trying some new recipes and wanted me to try them, plus I am a big eater anyways." She knew the minute it came out that he wasn't going to buy it, but it sounded good in her mind. And to her dismay he didn't believe her one bit.

But Heero looked down and now bit his lip trying not to smile because she was so cute when she fibbed. Then he tried to keep his amusement in check as he went on to say, "I see, yes, well, ya know, Relena, the one bet I know I could win hands down with Duo Maxwell is the fact I know when you are lying." But all the enchantment was gone in his blue orbs when they drilled right through her as the reality of the situation hit him. "So what gives, Relena? Who was supposed to eat with you? Cause it sure as hell wasn't me."

Relena swallowed hard as the weight of his expression and allegation bore into her very soul. She knew she had to come clean. Her heart sunk because she knew there was going to be hell to pay when she told him what she did.

She took a deep breath and prepared herself for his wrath. "Lu was here and she wanted to..." she tried.

"NOIN?!" Heero was incensed.

"Yes and she..." she tried again.

"SHE WAS HERE IN THIS ROOM?" He pointed to the floor.

"YES! And she just wanted to spend the afternoon with me, so..." she began to say, but he was too far gone to hear her.

So, his tirade continued and now pointing at himself. "AND SHE KNOWS I AM HERE?"

"Yes, but..." Relena desperately tried to explain so he would calm down, but he wouldn't let her.

He went on to speak out loud to himself with the use of wild hand gestures. "OH THAT'S JUST GREAT! Great, now she will go tell Zechs and I'm goin to lose my job! NO WAIT, he'll probably just kill me INSTEAD!" He threw up his hands in exasperation then gave her the patented Heero Yuy death glare. "YEAH, THAT'S IT! I'm a dead man, a dead man for sure now Relena. I hope you like being in love with a dead man!"

"HEERO! HEERO!" She yelled over him, "As I was trying to tell you MY brother isn't home YET! He won't be home till dinner AND Noin is happy for us and she ensures me that he will be, too!"

Heero gave a disbelieving huff to the last half of her statement and rolled his eyes, then shook his head. He placed his hands on his terrycloth covered hips, giving her a sideways glance as she went on.

"Look, can we please just enjoy the rest of the day?" Relena picked up the provisions and walked over to him while giving a cliché. "And then cross that bridge when we get to it, hum?"

He took the tray from her, giving her a weary look, but reluctantly decided, "Agreed."

"Wow! Now there's a bet I never thought I'd win!" she joshed.

"What bet is that?" he raised an eyebrow.

"One where you'd EVER agree with me!" she laughed.

His lips twitched, fighting a smirk, as he headed back into the bathroom now in front of her and Relena licked her lips taking in the view. She couldn't help but run her hand down his back and then gave him a good pat on the ass making him jump and look back over his shoulder at her in surprise.

She gave him a sexy chuckle then parted ways with him going over to the sink to take her daily dose of a birth control pill. Heero sat the food down next to the sunken tub, removed his towel and climbed in. Then twisted around and watched as she wrapped her dark blonde locks up and secure it in a jaw clip, thinking how different she seemed after just one night of lovemaking.

He then turned back around and poured some tea. Then took a sip and began to brood about just how her brother was going react to all this when he found out.
