AN: Please don't ask me where this little short came from. I just asked a friend about her day and *woosh* there it was. A one-shot apparently. Warning: This is my first Catcisse! But no worries, I'll never drop my love for Cathry, so don't get used to this. ;) Reign's not mine and all that jazz... Hope you'll enjoy!
Surprises
She heard a giggle first, hoarse and deep, then a moan full of pain or pleasure, she wasn't sure. A male baritone that followed – now she was worried. Was the Queen Mother not alone?
Bursting into her chambers on quick determined feet, the Queen of Spain's eyes went wide as she spotted her mother so clearly not in distress but preoccupied otherwise instead. Disrobed completely, she lay on her bed, the Lord Chancellor grinding on top of her, making her laugh and gasp all the same. Her face was flushed, her hair unruly, framing her face on a sinful pillow of reddish curls.
"Mother," the Queen released with a shocked little sigh, startling the Queen Mother for a second before a frown replaced her darted-up brow.
Gazing at her with a boyish smirk, Stephane Narcisse didn't move an inch but rather chivalrously covered his lover's lusciousness with a loving embrace.
"Oh Leeza, just say it, all right, and save us all the long sermon", Catherine de Medici rolled her eyes.
Glaring at her mother in disbelief for another moment, the Queen of Spain stood, her shoulders erect until she relaxed and suddenly exhaled, "Oh, thank God, mother! You didn't take father's misdemeanours lying down. You took lovers yourself!" Taking in a deep breath, Leeza snickered at the bemused look she saw washing over Narcisse's face, mismatching her mother's bewildered expression. "Well, lie down you did, I suppose...," she quickly added, prompting an immediate response from the Lord Chancellor that made her mother blush a deep crimson red. "Not necessarily," he said, then kissed his lover gently to scotch her protest.
"Oh, never mind me," Leeza averted her eyes and left with an amused smile on her lips, allowing her mother to relax into her lover's touch again without any unwelcome company.
