Life After Life
Chapter 4: Surprises, Surprises, Surprises…
Chapter 4; Start...
"What do you mean Lelouch?" Replied C.C.
He sighs "If I leave Nunnally on her own with the rebels, which I know the Black Knights can handle own their own, but she might not have the military of Britannia on her side because she is only a girl. The Military Generals would never listen to her, but if I intervened and showed up, many people would wonder if the "Demon Emperor" really was a demon or not."
"By saving the Empress from humiliation, and disapproval. But Lelouch…" C.C. said in a saddened tone
"I know C.C., I don't like it either. I would rather sit back and watch the happiness of the world unfold. But if someone is trying to kill the Empress, my sister, and take Britannia in their own hands. Then many problems will happen as a result of me not returning." Lelouch explained
"But Lelouch… I thought we were going to finally live as a normal couple. And not interfere with the worlds problems unless absolutely necessary."
"I would have enjoyed a peaceful life with you C.C., but we can't live in peace if the world might return to its unstable state. And besides, I wouldn't leave this place without being married to you first." He said with a smile
"Oh Lelouch. I still can't understand my feelings very well, but I can guess that this feeling is happiness. No one else has been able to make me this happy before, I'm glad the guy I met on that day was you." She answered with tearful eyes, and wrapped her arms around Lelouch.
"AWWW!" You two are perfect for each other you know that." Mary said as she jumped into their room
"Thanks Mary, you have been a great help to us." C.C. replied
"No problem Milady, I live to serve both of you."
"Mary? Why did you say that? Lelouch asked
"Well, to be honest Lelouch, the only reason why I'm still here is because Lady C.C., like I told you. She saved me from a terrible life, that I don't ever want to talk about. But since that day I have been at her service, and now I am to you Master Lelouch."
"Mary… you don't have to call me that." He said
"And the same with me Mary, just call me C.C., or Ceceniah."
"But your Highness…"
"No Mary, you have done enough, you can just call us by our normal names, no more Royalty, since we won't need it for now." Said Lelouch
"O… Ok, I will try, but can I stay with you all?
"Sure, you can stay with us as long as you want. But you get to choose as what you want to stay as."
"Well, can I stay as your Bodyguard?"
"You can if you want, but you should learn how to fight if you want to do that." C.C. replied
"Oh trust me C.C., I can do that." She said with a smile
"Ok then. You're Welcome then Mary." She said
"Thank you C.C."
"Well, Suzaku. What is the reason for you to bring Six members of the Knights of the Round to this meeting?" Nunnally questioned him
"My reason is to protect you Nunnally, that is one of the tasks that I have been given. And you know I have to for the sake of the world." He replied back
"Then why bring all of the Knights you and I know?"
"They will have a better chance at keeping you safe, and they have shown that they are capable of protecting."
"Well of course, they wouldn't be in the Knights of the Round if they weren't capable of doing that Suzaku. I listened to you and let Kallen be the Knight of One, and all the rest of them will be great Knights. Gino, Tohdoh, Jeremiah, Anya, and Lance. All of them were placed as Knights at my request, so why are they here? If they are not gong to protect what they think is worth protecting, then they shouldn't be here, that was my only rule to them Suzaku."
"You want to know why Empress?"
"Yes, I do want to know why."
"The reason they come here instead of protecting their land is because they would rather protect the Empress that they all serve, and greatly respect. You Empress, are worth more to them then their land, since you are the only person that can keep this world in order and keep it safe from any problems it comes across."
"Suzaku…"
"Yes Nunnally,"
"You want to know why they respect me so much,"
"I think I know why, since you are the leader of the Free World."
"No, that is incorrect."
"If that is wrong, then what do you think is the reason Mi'lady?
"The reason they protect me is because I am the only Member left with His blood running through me. The only of member left of the Family that He came from, the Family that my older brother Lelouch came from. Lelouch is the only reason they protect me, I'm his little sister, the only Royal Family Member left of Britannia. Except for our older brother Schneizel and older sister Cornelia. But I'm the only Daughter left, which means the bloodline would disappear if I died. If they don't keep me safe, then who would?
"I see, since Schneizel and Cornelia gave up their position, you have become the only member left that has the Royal bloodline in you. And you know I will always be the Knight of Zero, the only knight meant to protect the former Emperor."
"I miss him so much. Suzaku, could you take me to his grave, to say Hi to him again."
"Yes Nunnally, when you finish getting ready. Oh! And Nunnally,"
"Yes Suzaku?"
"I have heard great news from Lloyd Asplund."
"And what news does he have for you?"
"It is not for me, it's for you."
"Really? And what is it? She said while taking off her pink blouse.
"Well, the first part should be good news, he said that even with your injures you are still fertile, you can have kids with no problems if you ever get pregnant,"
"Really! Thank you Suzaku that is wonderful news!" She said with big eyes and a big smile.
"Hold on Nunnally, I haven't told you the best part."
"Oh yeah? And what is that?
"He says if they can do an experimental procedure on you, and if done correctly, you would be able to walk again." He said with a big smile
"I…I would be…able to wake again…"
"Yes Nunnally, you would have to learn how to walk again, but you could get another chance to walk."
"Oh Suzaku, that has been some of the best news I have heard in a really long time now. Being able to walk again, and yet, since my accident that put me in this wheelchair years ago I will still be able to have kids. I guess I have luck with me for now."
"You may have luck Nunnally, something many of us never get a chance to have. So do what you can with your luck."
"You know I will, but who knows when it will run out,"
He sighs, Don't worry Nunnally, I will make sure that you get enough luck so you can get your legs back. I know Lelouch would have done the same thing.
"Everything alright Suzaku?"
"Yeah. I just have been thinking alot lately, that is all. No need to worry about me though." He reassured her
"Alright then." After she finished talking to him, she went back to getting her clothes back on, with him turned around so she could change her skirt. Then she put on a plain white blouse so she wouldn't get hot outside. And with his help, they were able to get a new pair of leggings on her and her plain white flat shoes. With her finishing touches with her make-up of purple eye shadow, light red cherry lipstick, and pink nail polish. She was ready to head outside to see her brothers grave. "I'm ready Suzaku"
"Alright then Nunnally."
"Hey Lelouch,"
"Yes Mary?
"Wouldn't you like to know where you are buried? Well, where people think you are buried anyways."
"Well, it does seem interesting. Let me ask C.C., if she wants to go then I will go as well." He replied
"Alright, just let me know so I can get ready."
"Ok," He said, then he turned his attention to the other room with C.C. laying on the bed holding her Cheese-kun. "Hey C.C., would you like to go see the graves with me and Mary right now?"
"I don't know, can I ask why you would like to go see the graves?"
"Well, to see Euphie and Shirley," He said honestly "And to see the graves they made for Suzaku and I." He said when a quiet tone
"Well Lelouch, if you want to go see them. Then I will go with you, we can leave some flowers for Euphie and Shirley when we see them. Just make sure to tell Mary to hurry up and get ready, since she usually takes a long time to get herself ready." C.C. replied to his question
"Alright, thanks."
"You usually never tell me that Lelouch,"
"I better start to use it more, since I am going to spend eternity with you."
She smiled with caring eyes, eyes she hardly uses. "Your Welcome, My dear Prince."
"Thank you, again." He said as he left the room, then he went into Mary's room. "Hey Mary, C.C. says to get ready fast because…" All Lelouch saw was the entire backside of a nude Mary when he looked around to find her. They both screamed…with Mary grabbing the bed covers while twisting it around her body, and crouching down to the floor so Lelouch wouldn't see a thing. Little did she know he saw enough to faint, but he didn't and closed the door as fast as he could. Oh my gosh, why didn't I knock on her door first. I'm such a moron! I should go in there and say sorry to her. Then turn around and "calmly" walk out.
What just happened? I think Lelouch just got in here, I should have put the lock on the door, how could I forget that! Lets forget about that right now. I should tell him sorry for not warning him that I was already undress, but what would Lady C.C.? Oh my gosh…if I tell her anything she might strangle me, oh well. I need to let her know what happened. Alright, I will tell Lelouch I'm sorry to him and tell Lady C.C. that it was an accident.
Knock, Knock, Knock… "Come in!"
"Uh, Mary…"
"Lelouch," She blushed just looking at him
"Uh, I wanted to tell you sorry for not knocking on your door before opening it."
""Oh, it's ok. I want to say sorry to you also, since I forgot to lock the door and tell you guys to knock since I was already out of my clothes." She told him
"It is ok also Mary, I should have asked you if you were dressed or not so I wouldn't come in without you knowing." He said
"It is alright with me too. I am still sorry though, for you to see me this way. Men of your lineage shouldn't soil your eyes by seeing girls of my low-stature in this inappropriate manner." She said in a saddened voice
"Mary, you shouldn't say that about yourself. I have seen many girls naked like you are right now, but some in even more inappropriate ways. C.C. is one of them, on our first actual meeting, which was in my room, she was already nude and in my bed before I could tell her to get off. And besides, you shouldn't feel bad about your body. You have one of the most beautiful I have seen out of a girl your age, my younger sister is about the same age as you. I had to see her body a lot since I had to help change her clothes and give her baths. Both of you have a similar body figure, small, slightly curvy, slim, and small in the front. But you shouldn't feel bad, I know many guys your age that would do anything to get your attention. You are a wonderful girl, a gentle heart and caring, just like my sister. Except that you are a blonde with blue-green eyes that wears glasses. Yet, you two share many things alike, get dressed and come to My and C.C.'s room." Lelouch told her with a smile of acceptance
"Ok, I'll get ready and go to your guys' room. I'll be out in a few."
Lelouch returned to his room with C.C. already ready for the trip. With C.C. turning to see his face with a little smirk
"So how was your conversation with Mary, Lelouch? She asked
"It was ok, nothing major happened."
"Is that so?"
"Yeah, normal as a normal 'Hurry up Mary' moment as can be."
"Liar, I heard both of your screams, I saw and heard everything you two talked about."
"Really?" He replied shocked
"Yup, and I have to say that you handled yourself well. Mary did the same. Also, I want to know, is what you said about Nunnally's and Mary's bodies true?"
"Well, to be truthful. Yes, I really did have to help with Nunnally exactly how I tried to explain it. You know I have slept with Nunnally in her bed to keep her from having nightmares. By making her believe she wasn't on her own, and she still isn't. And for Mary, yes. She does resemble Nunnally a lot, they both have nearly the exact body type in the front and in the back, their personalities are also the same. Not to mention the smile, both exactly the same. They could be sisters, and who knows. Maybe they will someday." Lelouch said laughing at his own joke
"Ha-Ha wise guy, as much I don't mind having her with us. I am not going to lose to a little girl like her. Not by a long-shot" She replied with smirk on her face
Knock, Knock… "Can I come in."
"Sure Mary." C.C. answered
"Thank you C.C., so what have you two been talking about?"
"Things, many, many things. Good and Bad."
"I see, so you guys are really going to go through the whole 'Marriage' idea? With Nunnally, Lelouch?" She asked
"I think I really might have to, if I don't then Nunnally might be killed before any more good can be done to this world." He replied
"I see, so what are your thoughts Lady C.C.?"
"I am going to let him go through with it."
The response shocked Lelouch and Mary, especially Lelouch. "C.C., I thought you would go against no matter what."
"I was in the beginning. But when I heard what you had to say and a lot of critical thinking of my own. I decided that you should, if anyone could bring peace to this world it would be Nunnally, but she can't if she doesn't have a powerful man by her side, only on one condition though." C.C. explained
"And what is your One Condition?"
"You will never make love to your little sister, you know as well as I do that is against all major boundaries placed in history, mankind, and most certainly family." C.C. said with a strong tone
"I know, I know all of that. I never thought of taking my little sisters first experience in bed away from her. No brother should ever do that to his little sister."
"But what if you are the only person she ever wanted to be with? As brother and sister, as a family, and as husband and wife?" Mary asked
"Then that would be a definite problem for all of us." C.C. answered "But, if that is the case, then it can't be helped. Lelouch would have to go through with it. No matter how much he hates the idea, he would have to keep his sister happy."
"Damn it, why am I always having to deal with all the hard crap." Lelouch said feeling overwhelmed
"It's alright Lelouch, you have me here," C.C. said while moving her head on his right shoulder and wrapping her arms around his body.
He sighed a sigh of relief, and used his right hand to grab hold of C.C.'s left hand. "You are right, I have you here with me. The immortal witch I adore and love."
She smiled, "And I have you my young warlock. For no one will tear us apart." She then looked at Mary, who looked sad for not having anyone to be with. C.C. then whispered in Lelouch's ear. "Lelouch, if you don't mind of having another girl in your bed, would you consider having Mary as a Second Wife?"
He replied to her in a whisper, his answer. "Well, it never mattered to me. If you deem her right of sharing our bed with her, then I will grant it as a privilege not just for me, but to you as well. To have someone to keep you company if I bore you or if I'm away."
She smiled, " That would be kind of you. So we will have three of us in a bed, how delightful. A man and women for me, and two women for you. I think that is fair enough. Tell her." She told him in a whisper again
"Alright then," He told her, he then turned to Mary. "Mary, come here. We would like to ask you something."
"O…Ok." She replied, looking nervous, she then sat down to Lelouch's left. Then, with a sudden move, Lelouch kissed Mary. Her cheeks bright red, closing her eyes. He then pulled her close to himself, close enough for C.C. to move to Lelouch's right and place her left hand on Mary's left thigh, gliding her fingers up and down her thigh, tickling Mary. When Lelouch lips finally set hers free. She had her eyes closed and had a big smile on her face, with Lelouch holding her close to his chest with his left arm, asleep. Then with his right arm he pulled C.C. close to him and gave her a passionate kiss herself since he thought she would be a bit jealous if he didn't give her one. After a few minutes they let go and looked at each other, with C.C. just looking at him, then returned his kiss and then laid her head on his chest as well. Lelouch, holding two girls in his arms, seemed extremely satisfied with what has happened after a near death incident a half-hour earlier. One, he loved very much, and another that he is going to have to learn how to take care of and learn to love, but it has gotten off to a good start.
Lelouch just sat there thinking, that he now had two girls to support and take care of. Even so, a whole new chapter in his life has just begun, ready for him to write things into it. And with two Future-Wives in the making, he can't even begin to imagine how or where his life is going to take him. But, only a few things he was certain of. 1: He had to go back to the Palace, 2: He has to become Emperor, and 3: To deal with a rebellion which he didn't start. But for now, he was looking at the girls, then outside the window, with a beautiful day that has only just begun to unfold many mysteries not just to him, but for everyone he used to call family and friends.
