Chapter 11 – insecurities
Down in the dinning room Cagalli, Athrun, Kira and Lacus watched in awe as Dearka finish his fourth stack of pancakes with strawberries on top. Finally he pushed the plate aside signalling the tank was finally full "Ah! That was great!"
"What the hell have you been up to te gain an appetite like that?" demanded Cagalli luck for Dearka he has a darker complexion or else they may have noticed him blush. Just think about what he had done earlier made him all giddy inside. Miriallia…I really do love you…
"Hey space case!"
"huh?"
"don't tell me you didn't hear what Kira said "
"Oh sorry I was just thinking. You were saying"
"I said that it's strange that Miriallia's not up yet"
"Maybe she extra tired" assumed Athrun
Yeah tired from our amazing play time. Dearka began to day dream a bit but when her started to here Lacus's voice he snapped out of it.
"….you should go check on her Dearka"
"Huh?"
"She gets mad when she wastes her day in bed why don't you go check on her"
"ah yeah okay…"
Dearka was a bit confused why they suggested him to check on her after all they were trying to hide their relationship because they didn't believe anyone would understand, especially Kira. Yet Kira went along with the idea of sending him. Weird…
As Dearka approached his room he noticed a familiar sound, one his despised hearing it was the sound of Miriallia crying. Hearing this made his heart break into tiny little piece. He slowly open the door and walked in closing and locking the door behind him. When he look at the bed he saw Miriallia in the middle of all the blanket staring at him with tear stained cheeks.
"You regret it don't you…"
"I woke up and you were gone, I was so scared" Dearka sat next to her on the bed and pulled her close.
"You had another bad dream didn't you?"
"Yes…the first one before we….umm…you know"
"Yeah…" Dearka laughed at the fact that she was too embarrassed to say sex.
"well I dreamt that you left me for a bunch of hookers" Dearka burst out laughing "What!"
"Mir that is the silliest dream I've ever heard, I'll never leave you for anyone especially not a hooker or two"
"It was five"
"Wow you must think I'm some kind of a man whore" Mir giggled at his statement as she cuddled closer to his chest. "And the second one, what was it about since it's the one that has you all worked up."
"I dreamt about…"
"About what babe?"
"T-tolle" Dearka froze after hearing his name. He was the name Dearka was always good to be trying to live up to every waking hour of the day but now Mir had admitted to dreaming about him after there night together. "I think were moving too fast and I was feeling guilt that's all"
"What happen in your dream?" He was so afraid to ask but he had to know.
"He asked me how could I move on so fast and why I would do that to him" Mir got up from her position of being pressed against his chest and looked him in the eyes. "I was about to say the only thing that I could think of but he disappeared before I could tell him then I woke up and you were gone too!" her eyes began to leak; tears were free falling down her face. Dearka grabbed her into a tight embrace.
"What were you going to tell him?" curiosity had got the better of him; he needed to know even if he was afraid of the answer.
"I was going to tell him no matter how much it would hurt him to hear that I was in love with Dearka Elsman"
He smiled to himself "did I ever tell you you're the greatest girl ever?"
Mir giggled "you're not mad I had a dream about him"
"As long as you remember you love me, no I don't mind. And about us going too fast I agree. Let's slow down a bit and hold off for a while"
"Ok"
"Good now in the mean time babe get dressed and come downstairs everyone is worried about you"
"Alright honey-bunny I'll see you down there!" Dearka stole a morning kiss from his secret girl before leave the room. Thank you Dearka.
Slowly he made his way down the hallway. Hearing his door open he turned around to see a fully dress Miriallia running towards him. They shared one last kiss passionate kiss before going downstairs. When Dearka got downstairs he saw someone he wished he would never see again. In the door way stood three couples. The Yamato's, the Haww's and the Elsman's…
TBC…
