"Baby Series 2"

Practical Relena

“Well, it probably is not very nice of me to say but it is a relief he will no longer be breathing down my neck.” Relena sighed. “Murder is not something I have previously had to face at one of these dinners.”

She had taken it well, Wu Fei decided. If anything it was Milliardo who seemed the most disturbed by the murder. The King was staring gloomily into his cup, blue eyes shuttered and to Wu Fei it seemed there was a gulf of distance separating him from everyone in the room. Maxwell, he noticed was also watching the King with concern.

“The police will interview those of us who attended the dinner and departed early later today.” Yuy continued. “I believe Quatre and Trowa remained to act on behalf of Hunter.”

“There is nothing we can do about a murder except sit back and wait for the police to carry out their investigation. For now I think we should finish our chocolate and find our beds.” Relena looked pointedly at her brother’s barely touched drink. “Milliardo? Is something wrong with your chocolate?”

Blue eyes lifted to his sister in wary confusion and when Relena repeated the question he was quick to drink.

“Nothing wrong, just thinking.”

“Well as such affairs go, the murder aside, this dinner was not so reprehensible as some I have attended. However, my feet are killing me and I shall enjoy a hot bath to help me relax before bed.” Her blue eyes swept around the room and a sudden flurry of drinking ensued. “Heero, would you remain a moment please? There is something I need to ask you.”

//I believe we have been dismissed.// Chang set aside his empty mug, amused though he was uncertain as to exactly why.

The entire hot chocolate episode struck him as being orchestrated deliberately by the Princess but to what purpose? Women were a law unto themselves, he decided and he was not inclined to investigate her reasons. He rose and bowed politely to the siblings.

“I believe a few quiet moments before bed to reflect on the evening are in order. Your Majesty, Your Highness.”

Duo watched in silence and when Milliardo stood he was quick to jump to his feet. Relena and Heero were doing that staring into each other’s eyes thing that made him especially aware of what he was missing and in Duo’s view there was no reason to hang around like a third wheel.

“Yuy.” Milliardo rumbled.

“Five minutes, Milliardo. I just need a few words with him.”

Heero looked as though he wanted to run with the King’s attention on him and Duo sniggered as he followed Milliardo from the room. No doubt Heero was aware of what Relena might do should he attempt a retreat before she had her say.

Relena watched the door swing closed and turned to the young man, favouring him with a gentle smile.

“Now Heero, just how sure are you my brother is bisexual?”
