Éclair/Eclipse AU

By: Sayaalv

(A/N: I own nothing and what would happen should Éclair had never lost her memories? Also what would happen if her abilities bonded with Eclipse's Quant ability two years before the start of the series? Read to see! AU OOC Femslash some Slash.)

"Oww. What hit me?" Éclair asked sitting up in bed and massaging her head when she woke up with a large hangover.

"At least four glasses of pure absinthe." A familiar womans voice answered causing Éclair's eyes to snap open, only for her to squeeze them shut at the amount of light in the room.

"Hold on a second while I turn out the light." The woman said apologetically as she turned out the lights in the room before walking back over to the bed with cups of coffee in her hands.

"Here this should help you get over the hangover quicker." The woman said as Éclair opened her eyes and sighed in relief when her vision wasn't obscured with a ridiculous amount of light.

"Thanks Eclipse." Éclair said climbing out of the bed and sitting in one of the chairs next to it as she took the cup from her boss and friend.

"You're welcome now tell me. What all do you remember about last night?" Eclipse said after Éclair had sighed in relief when the coffee boosted her already working healing ability into overdrive.

"Hmm. Not much admittedly. I remember going to the bar with some of my civilian friends and ordering some absinthe since it's the only thing that can get me buzzed at least. Hmm I remember talking to my friends and doing karaoke on a dare from Ricki. I remember flirting with a pretty blond woman that had walked in and sat next to me at the bar, then I kissed her on a dare from Capri…can't remember nothing after that. Why and where are we?" Éclair retold as she looked around tha room and noticed that it wasn't her apartment while Eclipse sighed slightly.

"We're at my house, although now I'm thinking that it would be more appropriate to call it our house. You really don't remember anything past that?" Eclipse asked sighing again while Éclair shook her head in confusion.

"That 'pretty blond' you were flirting with was me, thank you for the compliment by the way, since I had gone to the bar to try and drown the headache one of the Nouvlesse had given me. When you kissed me our abilities bonded and these appeared on our fingers." Eclipse said holding up her left hand to show a golden band on the ring finger. Éclair's eyes widened at this as she looked at her hand and saw a matching golden band on her finger.

"But how? Our abilities could only bond if they are –"

"Compatible and if we shared a kiss on the lips? Yes they could and yes they did." Eclipse interrupted understanding Éclairs shock and disbelief. She had been the same way last night when she realized that they had bonded; although right now she was debating whether she was amused or irritated that they had only bonded because Éclair had kissed her on a drunken dare.

"Damn that was not exactly I was expecting from a night at the bar." Éclair said shaking her head slightly in disbelief, thankful that her healing ability already took care of her hangover. Bonding between E.S. members at the same power level was not exactly rare but it wasn't exactly common either. So far the only ones who had bonded were Sinistra and Dextera, Un-oh and A-oh, and Viola and Cesario…although all the kisses had been amusing accidents.

Sinistra had tripped during a training session with Dextera and had landed on top of his partner in a suggestive position with their lips locked. Un-oh had tried sneak attacking Éclair during a sparring match once when she had been exchanging blows with A-ou. She had noticed him coming and dodged, which caused Un-oh to practically glomp A-ou with their lips connected. Viola had been running down some stairs after Cesario during one of their small fights and had tripped. Cesario had turned around to catch her before she hurt herself, and Viola accidently sent them both tumbling down the stairs with her momentum and they landed with their lips touching. All previous incidents had been hilarious and she had them all on camera.

"Now what? We're bonded and technically married and I don't mind but should we tell the others yet or wait till the actual wedding?" Éclair asked sighing as she leaned back into the chair and looked at Eclipse curiously.

"Actual wedding?" Eclipse asked curiously, they were already technically married so why would they need a wedding?

"You want an actual wedding don't you? If not, fine with me. If so, fine with me." Éclair said shrugging slightly; it didn't matter to her either way actually.

"Well as the Chief of the G.O.T.T. I will have to have a public wedding eventually." Eclipse said nodding slightly and causing Éclair to frown.

"I didn't ask the Chief of the G.O.T.T. I asked Eclipse, the woman in front of me wearing a wedding band that matches mine." Éclair said causing Eclipse to give her a somewhat surprised look, sure Éclair had always been casual with her but she had always kept in mind that the blond was her boss. That mindset seemed to be completely gone.

"…Yes. I want a small private wedding for our friends." Eclipse said after a moment, she had been in her Chief persona for so long she had almost forgotten how to be just Eclipse.

"Then that's what we'll do whenever you want but I'd at least like to take you out on some dates before then." Éclair said smiling at her wife that smiled slightly back.

"That's fine with me. I'm not the kind of woman to get married after one date." Eclipse said causing Éclair to grin at her.

"So after two dates then?" Éclair asked causing Eclipse to giggle slightly, which was vastly different from the chuckles she always gave any other time.

"And we'll let the others know before the small wedding." Eclipse said as if agreeing with Éclair, who nodded in agreement at this.

"I'll have a camera on hand to take pictures of their reactions."
