To rule the world with an iron fist
Chapter two-Milly the rumour starter.
Waking up the next morning I thought everything the night before had been just a dream until I'd pushed the quilts off me, got up and tripped over T.T.'s still form as he laid there with his one blood red eye looking up at me as a frown plagues his lips "you were hoping it was all a dream, weren't you?" he asks throwing his quilt into the corner of the room before getting up and helping me back up onto my feet "sorry to say but I'm as real as you are."
Lowering myself back down on the sofa I pull T.T. down beside me while thinking my words over carefully "you are correct T.T. I was thinking it was all a dream but I was far from hoping in fact the only thing I was hoping is that it did actually happen" looking out of the corner of my eye at him I watch for any changes of expression "in fact you are even more real and true to yourself than I T.T. in certain aspects anyway" he snorts at this and I can't help but laugh at his reaction.
Tapping his fingers off of his chin he stares straight ahead at the automatic door directly opposite the sofa we are sat on while deep in thought. Blinking a couple of times he turns his head and looks to me "very few know my name but I'll trust you with it. Tetsuo Akagi is my name and I am the strongest known immortal to date, not to brag or anything" he grins a wide sharp toothed grin that makes him almost look childish the only thing stopping it from looking childish is that eye patch of his.
Rolling my eyes I silently let the name roll off the tip of my tongue with a smile on my face "it's a name I'll remember for sure" he places a hand on top of my head before messing it up and the whole time my body slowly goes limp and gradually falls in his direction "don't do it, it puts me to sleep" a laugh escapes his lips as I fall into him with no sign of him stopping and no sign of me being able to budge anytime soon.
"Nah I'd rather not stop yet" as he starts to caress his fingers through my hair "I want an innocent geass user while it lasts" he mumbles more to himself with his eyes closed as all the previous thoughts he might have had disappear and he starts to drift off to sleep.
At the sound of the automatic doors gliding open my eyes snap open and I quickly recover my composure and sit up straight while T.T. slouches further into the sofa and looking at the new arrivals who happen to be Lelouch and Milly. "Sup" is all T.T. to the gawping new comers as they look between the two others even if Milly has a look of 'wow he's cute, who is he I wonder?' and Lelouch gives a look of 'who the hell is this guy and why is he with Hannah'.
Milly blinks several times before crossing the room with a skip to her step before ambushing me and pulling me into a hug the type of hug which is suffocated "our little Hannah is all grown up no wonder you wanted to stay here and not your new home last night" she says with a wiggle of her eyebrows. A dark aura coming from near the automatic doors draws our attention to Lelouch who has moved slightly further into the room with bawled hands at his sides and a look of jealousy on his face "aw is Lulu jealous of the newcomer?" she taunts him.
His jaw hangs open and his hands uncurl at his sides as blush creeps in and gets darker and darker until its almost dark red "why would I be jealous of eye patch over there? I mean it's not like I like Hannah or anything" he says averting his eyes and making sure not to meet anyone's eyes "and plus if we let her explain there will probably be a reason behind this" his lips tilt up into a barely visible smirk to anyone who isn't looking for it.
Letting out a snort I pry Milly's arms from around me, shuffle over onto to the middle cushion and she sits down on the cushion giving me a look of 'is Lulu right? Do you really have a reason?' but it's confident aura of T.T. beside me which gives me what I need to lie so confidently to those I am close too "Lelouch is right there is a reason he is here" I let out a sigh when I notice the sheepish look on Milly's face as she tucks her phone back into her pocket "you just text everyone saying I brought home a boy, didn't you?" to this she nods "great just what I need the student council coming to investigate." T.T.'s hand squeezes mine reassuringly to which I return the gesture "this boy is a friend of mine we met a while back but where separated when he moved away from Tokyo and we met back up just yesterday actually. He goes by T.T. and will no doubt be seen around quite a lot from now on" I finish with a smile.
"Told you she'd have a reason for bringing in a stranger" Lelouch says his ego getting that little bit bigger because he thinks he got it right if only he knew the truth of our meeting "T.T. was it? Nice to meet you" he says showing T.T. his brightest smile but in the depths of those eyes T.T. and Milly could that he was silently telling him not to touch Hannah.
Milly jumps up from the sofa dragging me up to my feet as she clasps her hands together "Lulu take T.T. with you to your room and supply him with some clothes since you both seem to have the same build as one another. Hannah and I will be waiting for you in the living area" she says dragging me from the room "he's quite a looker that one but I can't help thinking he looks a little like a certain little raven haired student council member of ours" she giggles as my jaw drops as I compare their build, hair colour, complexion and manners and realise there may just be some truth behind her words.
Sitting in the living area I take in the style and layout of the room since it's been so long since I've been able to relax in such a place. The walls are maroon coloured, the floor laminate and the curtains an out of place purple. I rest on the three seater sofa staring up at the television with my feet on the coffee table, around the table are three sofas one three seater and two two seater sofas while the tv is above the fireplace that is currently on and emitting a homely glow beckoning us in. The student council arrived not too long ago just after Lelouch and T.T. returned from finding him a change of clothes to which I was pleasantly surprised with the outcome Lelouch had found him a pair of dark faded jeans, black t-shirt, light blue hoodie and a pair of black shoes to complete the look. Milly and Nina sit on the sofa to my left and on the sofa to my right is Rivalz and Shirley then at either side of me is Lelouch and T.T. "how did I know everyone would rush here when they heard about the mystery boy?" I purr looking at them one at a time with a slight smirk on my lips "the fact that a new rumour could be started tomorrow." All but Nina make a show of not knowing what I'm talking about while she generally doesn't have a clue "as I told Lelouch and Milly roughly an hour ago this boy is a friend of mine we met a while back but where separated when he moved away from Tokyo and we met back up just yesterday. He goes by T.T. and you'll be seeing him around a lot from now on."
Rivalz gawps sitting on the edge of his seat but his mouth slowly closes and he slouches back into his seat pouting "when Milly messaged me I thought there would be a scandal" scowling at his comment I look at my black military boots "so all in all we're here only to see the 'pretty boy' as Milly called him" he rolls his eyes before jumping up onto his feet and pointing at T.T. with a scowl "Milly I mine and mine alone, you hear me?" his cheeks turn scarlet as he realises he said it out loud and so he quickly escapes the room.
Nina and Milly look from us to the open door before shaking their heads, Shirley sits surprised while we three remain unaffected. Nina gets up from the sofa straightening her clothes and patting down her jeans before bowing "it was nice to m…me…meet you T.T. but I must take my leave" she stutters before straightening back up and rushing from the room avoiding having eye contact with any of us all of us but Shirley blink stunned at the polite tone she used before fleeing.
"Nina wait" Shirley shouts getting up onto her feet and hesitating looking between us and the open door. A soft smile appears on her face as she looks between the four remaining people in the room "I dragged her here so I'll find her and take my leave now. See you at school Lulu, Hannah, Milly and nice meeting you T.T. sorry for leaving so soon" he shrugs his shoulders and she quickly sprints from the room calling Nina's name.
"Oh dear what a poor excuse of a host I am" Milly says bringing her hands to her face and pouting while looking to the three of us. We sit there in silence until Milly clasps her hands together and a secretive smile tugs at her lips "well it seems I have some paperwork due talk to you guys later on tonight. Lelouch go to Nunnally will you you've left her alone since last night and Hannah why don't you take T.T. on a tour of the campus since you have the day off today" she slowly gets up onto her feet, crosses the room and pulls Lelouch up on to his feet and leads him from the room leaving me stunned and T.T. not knowing what emotion to show at this point in time.
T.T. gets up onto his feet and smiles down at me "I actually wouldn't mind that tour of the grounds I would like to learn the layout of my new home" his voice sounds like a melody to my ears, shaking my head to get rid of such delusions when I realise they aren't budging I let out a sigh and rise up onto my feet "c'mon Miss Akitsu show me the grounds of wherever we are at."
Turning on my heel I glance over my shoulder at him with a smirk "follow me and I'll show you the way can't having you getting lost now can we?" I say as he jumps over the sofa and follows behind me with his arms behind his back and his hands clasped together, a smile on his lips as he follows me out of Milly's estate on the academy grounds.
Many hours have passed and I sent notice to Clovis telling him I'd return tomorrow after school just before returning to Milly's estate on the academy grounds. We walk into Milly's office eating ice cream just to see her talking on the phone to Lelouch "thank god Sayoko was there Lulu even if it was just a temperature if Sayoko wasn't there who knows what could have happened." Her eyes rest on us and she flinches "lulu I'm going to go now I've got company. Yes its Hannah, no I won't say anything-" before she has a chance to put the phone down I've snatched the phone from her hand and am holding the receiver to my ear.
"Milly, Milly you there Milly?" Lelouch's voice sounds over the line "don't tell her about Nunnally having the flu, Milly" his voice sounds over the line.
Shaking my head I give Milly what is left of my ice cream as I perch on the desk "no promises about that Lulu" I can practically hear him flinch over the line "that much of a shock to hear my voice when you are telling someone to not tell me something?" I giggle stroking a hand through my hair as T.T. pulls faces at me from where he is stood before me "don't worry I won't rush over there just make sure she keeps well Lelouch or you'll have me to answer too" nothing like growling down the line and sending shivers up his spine "speak to you tomorrow Lelouch" I end the call and toss the phone into Milly's hands.
Milly looks up with a sad smile on her face "sorry he didn't want you to find out" at a shrug off my shoulders she raises an eyebrow "you've surprised me by not rushing over to their quarters" T.T. steps up beside me and my lips curl up into a smile catching Milly by surprise "I figured you would be staying here tonight so I prepared your old bedroom, and now I have an urgent call to attend too so could you both leave now?" we nod in response and I lead him down the corridor to the far end, take a swift right just before the dead end and there's my room.
Walking into my room I notice it hasn't changed. The double bed off too one corner, the desk cluttered with little trinkets and class notes, the oak wardrobe and two sets of drawers to match a little bit down from my desk; a little sofa lies to the end of my bed and that's my room for you well the flooring is laminate and walls are a sky blue. Walking to the centre of the room I turn and bow to T.T. with a smile on my face "welcome to my humble abode feel free to use it in any way you so wish" kicking my shoes off I collapse on the sofa peeling my socks from my feet and throwing them to one side alongside my hoodie before strolling over to the opposite side of the room and taking a pair of black shorts and a navy blue tank top out of my drawers for sleeping in. leaving the room I skip down the hall and into the bathroom before stripping off what I was wearing and replacing it with the shorts and tank top and skipping back down to my room, jumping under the quilts and peaking over the top as T.T. stands in just his boxers his clothes balled up and flung in a corner, the first things I notice is the geass symbol over his left breast bone and the fact that his eye patch is no longer on his face and I see the purple eye I didn't see before with geass symbol in it "wow" is all I can say in response making him smirk.
He crosses the room in the blink of an eye and next thing I know he is in bed beside me his Heterochromia eyes stare at me. one purple eye and one eye that's blood red are what his eyes are a unique combo I've never seen until now "goodnight Hannah" he says closing his eyes and then my eyes drift and I'm also asleep but no dreams show themselves to me this night, T.T. beside me I believe is a comforting factor as when he's around I have the best night sleep I've had in years.
