Inclement Weather Relena edged sideways a little, carefully aligning the ball and the hole a few metres away. The weather was bitterly cold outside, but social niceties could not be set aside for inclement weather. The social directors for the season had arranged a round of indoor golf in the minor ballroom and despite herself she was quite enjoying herself. Heero was absent, a fact she had complained about to the three attendant members of Parliament whose choice of suitors present at this affair annoyed her. She was becoming more than a little tetchy with their penchant for excluding Heero from these gatherings. Very shortly if they did not improve their performance she would demonstrate her temper upon their heads. Pagan knew and had advised her to maintain her temper at least until the end of the week, assuring her he would squash any engagement announcements rumoured. He had also informed her he would mention the repeat offence to the King who was, he was unhappy to say, begging for a fight. Inclement weather seemed to bring out Milliardo’s temper. He was not by nature a pacifist, she was sure, but then she could not claim she herself was any better. Thus far Milliardo had not screamed his frustration down the West Wing hallway, though she should encourage him to do so. It could feel so liberating to let it all out. Dorothy was in attendance today, a fact which pleased Relena. She had noted her friend had been excluded from these little get togethers at least twice and a word in the right ear had remedied that. If she had to suffer the circus then she wanted at least one friendly presence to bide her company. It was amusing how people danced about Dorothy. She seemed to have quite the reputation and Relena was wonderfully entertained with the flow and ebb around the vivacious blonde. It was a pity Parliament was so set against having her as Queen, because as far as Relena was concerned, of the guests here for the express purpose of being considered for Queen there were only two real candidates, one of whom was Dorothy. However, Parliament would be disappointed as Millidardo had no more intention of choosing one of these women than she intended to wed any of the men they proposed as her consort. The one she desired was not even in the room and they would pay for that slight. Still, it proved how worried they were about her attraction for Heero. //They had best get used to it. I’m intending to marry that man.// A light tap, just enough to carry the ball up the grade and of course she had to hit it a little too hard and a little too far to the left to drop in the cup. Ah well, aligning golf balls was surely easier than directing nations and colonies. She would be sure to get the hang of it by the end of the session. ~ * ~
