Sweetmeats "I thought the meeting would never end. Some interviews are alright, some are a joy, hardly seem like an interview at all, but others…. Oooh, sometimes I have to bite my tongue!" Relena sighed as she exited the car, turning to smile at Heero as he held the door open for her. "You know what I would love right now?" Blue eyes flicked to her and then back in the usual, restless sweep of their surroundings in the hunt for something to kill. "What?" "Soft centred Belgian chocolates and one of those wonderful hot chocolates Milliardo makes in the dead of night, full of cinnamon spice." "You have a sweet tooth." Her smile was almost blinding and he wanted to see it more. "Oh yes, Heero, I certainly do. I have been told it runs in the blood." "Security reports Milliardo has a visitor." Heero led the way toward the mansion. "Given he is occupied, you will need to put up with a hot chocolate made by the chef. The Belgian chocolates should not be too hard to find, I think." Relena grinned like a little girl offered a new toy. "You spoil me." The blush was not the reaction most people would expect from the one formerly described as the Perfect Soldier, but it was something Relena found herself enjoying with pleasant frequency. Heero was far from being as formal with her as he used to be and she had hopes for him. "But I must indulge with care. It would not do for the Princess Royal to get fat. Who is visiting with my brother?" "Marquise Weyridge." Relena stropped in her tracks as they entered the foyer, her smile turning quickly into a frown. "Grandfather is here?" Heero inclined his head in acknowledgement, noting the location of everyone in one sweep of the large room. "Oh dear. That might be a problem." He turned his attention back to her. "How so?" "He and Milliardo are a touch… awkward together. Not worrying in itself, but grandfather usually has ulterior motives in everything he does and if Milliardo is still a little sensitive after giving that address to the Council…. Well, it might be a problem." "Your brother is capable." "There is no doubt of that generally, but against family… We have so few we can actually claim in that regard and I know he would want to keep the peace. Ah… let me see. Yes. I know. We need to pay a quick visit to the kitchen and then I am going to do the unthinkable and interrupt my grandfather. Sweetmeats are his weakness and I know the chef always has a rather nice selection on hand." "Sweetmeats?" Relena smiled. "Candied fruit. I told you, sweet teeth run in the family. Weyridge as well as Peacecraft." ~ * ~ |
