Discretion

Lelouch was flirting with me more at school and I knew he wouldn't let this go. Lelouch has been asking me out on dates which meant as he was Zero. We didn't have sex again, I told him I didn't want to do anything as such until I was married. Suzaku was now on my ass twenty-four-seven. I loved him too and yet he wasn't forcing himself on me. All we have been doing was kissing and hugging. Suzaku, however, has been more tender with me, but not perverted. He made sure I wasn't falling behind in classes and made sure I was happy. Suzaku has always kept me safe while Lelouch kept me wondering about what will happen between us.

While playing chess with Rolo, Lelouch walked over to me and kissed my head. Lelouch had a gentle smile on his face. I blushed knowing that he would hint about what happened last night. C.C. didn't know what we have done. "So, who's winning?" Lelouch questioned. "Rolo is." I stated as Lelouch just watched us play. Rolo chuckled as I took out one of his pawns. "I'm just helping Eira understand the game more." Rolo smiled. Lelouch opened his laptop and was going through the pictures. The look on his face caught my eye as he had an angry look for a moment. "Lelouch." I called out to him and gave him a smile. "Ahh, here is a cute picture." Lelouch relaxed as he leaned back in his chair, "Eira in a two-piece swimsuit due to Milly's suggestion." I gasped and leaped over to him. "Give me that damn picture!" I almost shouted. "No way-I like seeing you in this outfit!" Lelouch teased. "Rolo! Get your older brother!" I said as Lelouch held the laptop away from me. Rolo sighed and held his hand out, "Come on brother."

"No way!" Lelouch laughed as he ran out of the room. "Lelouch!" Now I was angry as hell. Running down the stairs, Ms. Villeta caught Lelouch and I snatched the laptop out of his hands. "What is going on here?" she questioned. "N-Nothing..." I breathed. "Just Lelouch trying to skip class again." I laughed and ran away. "Eira." Suzaku said as I noticed him holding a few books in his arms. "Are you feeling okay?" Suzaku questioned. "Yeah, I'm fine Suzaku." I smiled happily. "Oh, I see." Suzaku glared at Lelouch. "I want you to come home early." Suzaku said calmly. "Okay." I nodded. Suzaku walked passed me silently and I closed my eyes slowly until Rolo called me.

Hanging around the dorms, Lelouch, Rolo, and I were eating dinner. "My brother has a little crush on you Eira." Lelouch teased Rolo. I giggled sweetly and gave the two a smile. Rolo was blushing in embarrassment, "Sometimes older brother doesn't know when to be quiet." Rolo commented. "Don't worry about it Rolo, I think you are cute." I said as Lelouch made a look that made me laugh. "Ah, Lelouch is jealous now?" I said tilting my head. "Eira don't pester me with such logic." Lelouch retorted playfully making everyone laugh. "Oh, Rolo. I forgot." I pulled out a box tied by a ribbon. "Here." I smiled as Rolo took the box. He opened it curiously and noticed that the item was an antique bell.

"It's something that I think is eccentric and neat. I didn't know what kind of things you enjoy so I just collect antiques." I said nervously. Rolo was surprised and smiled happily. "Thank you Eira." Rolo said with out hesitating. "I like it." Rolo smiled happily. I smiled back happy that he enjoyed the present. Lelouch smiled and hugged me. "I am glad that you two get along so well." Lelouch said before taking out a camera. "Wait a minute-I don't want any pictures taken of me Lulu!" I said before leaping behind Rolo. Lelouch laughed as he began snapping pictures and chasing me down the stairs.

"Shit-you know I hate pictures Lelouch!" I screamed until I realized Suzaku was outside the dorms. I knew my silence would not satisfy him at all. "Eira, are you okay?" Suzaku asked with a gentle smile. I nodded and hugged him, "I'm sorry, but I have to go Lelouch. I'm glad you two had me to accompany you for dinner. Tell me whenever you want to hang out again." "Sure." Lelouch smiled happily as he and Rolo waved.

Suzaku and I waved back and left. "I'm glad that you are okay." Suzaku smiled gently. "Suzaku, what's bothering you?" I asked. "I just..." Suzaku fell silent as he kept his eyes away from mine. "You can't stand seeing me with him." I felt like crying. Suzaku looked at me and placed one arm around my shoulder. I couldn't tell him that Lelouch and I had sex. It would piss him off as well break him. "Don't be sad." Suzaku smiled gently as he took me in his arms. "Suzaku, stop trying to hurt yourself with me." I said weakly. My world, no what's left of my world, was falling apart slowly.
