Chapter 13 – I'll be Back Someday

It was the most awkward lunch anyone had ever eaten they all sat there not knowing what to say. They had all just found out Miriallia and Dearka were dating due to the kiss that Mir had willingly accepted from Dearka, however no one wanted to comment on it because right now she looked like she had just attended his funeral. She had he head against his shoulder and his right arm was rapped around her. She was like a zombie. She would not eat unless Dearka fed her. She in shock that she was losing the man she loved. What could anyone say? In just 3 1/2 hours he would be gone.

"Miriallia" Kira said

"…." No response. It had been like that for a while now. Not even Dearka could get her to say anything.

After dinner Dearka picked Mir up and took her to the couch to lie down. Everyone else went out to the garden to give them some privacy. They lay on the couch together in silence for a long while until Miriallia saw what time it was. It was 2:30. In an hour and a half they would be in the shuttle port hand Dearka over, perhaps for his execution. She could handle that thought and burst into loud uncontrollable sobs. She was crying harder now then she had ever cried for Tolle. Maybe because knowing was worst to her then not. You can't change what you don't know, but it hurts like hell when you can't change what you already know.

"Shhh…Miriallia, everything is going to be alright. I love you. I love you more then anyone or anything in my entire life. I won't let something as stupid as being Court Marshalled come between us. I promise I'll be back someday, and Elsman's never break promise" he didn't want to leave her, especially not with her like this.

"How…how can I believe that? I'm sure your father promised your mother that he would always love you. And how exactly is that working out for yeah?" she replied bitterly

"My father loves me I'm sure…It's my actions he hates…"

"Are you sure?"

"No…but you know, I will not break my promise to you. I love you too much to hurt you anymore then I already have in our short life together." They began passionately kissing; Miriallia was now feeling much better. She knew in her heart that Dearka wouldn't break his promise because he did love her. Dearka on the other hand was terrified and knew that he only had a small chance at see her again; he did want to even dare let her go.

For Miriallia this kiss wasn't enough. She tried to deepen it but that still wasn't enough for her. Dearka run his thong along her bottom lip and she didn't hesitate to open and allow his thong to explore her mouth. Her hands, his hands, they were both roaming though each others hair. But this still wasn't enough she wanted and needed more. She moved onto Dearka's chest. With her on top and him underneath he moaned happily. She continued her assault of kisses on Dearka only breaking the kiss for short breathes of air. He felt like he was suffocating, but right now he didn't care the needed one another and that was that. Mir let a moan of frustration out it still wasn't enough SHE NEEDED MORE!

She finally realised what she needed. She needed him. She needed to be one with him like when they were up in his room. She grabbed Dearka's right hand that was at the small of her back. She then moved it to her chest. He didn't hesitate to begin his own assault on her causing her to moan out of pleasure. Mir's hand left hand was on the arm rest while her right hand moved to Dearka's belt buckle. She couldn't wait, she didn't care where they were as long as they were together. I love you, Dearka. I love you, Miriallia. His buckle was now undone and her moved her hand to enter his pants when a female voice interrupted her.

"Ummm…I…umm.. s-sorry t-to i-in-ter-u-upt" The couple looked up to see there four friends with such red faces you would think you were staring at four tomatoes with legs. Cagalli had lost all train of thought when she saw them that she couldn't help but stutter.

Dearka reached down and re-buckled his pants, Mir pouted because it had taken her a while to undo it with one hand. He looked up at the shocked group and tried to get them out of lala land "What is it?"

"I-I…um…t-the…." Cagalli stuttered

"sh-shuttle port…" Kira added. Mir got off of Dearka, only to realise he had un hooked her bra during their play time. She quickly fixed it and looked up at them. Their faces had begun to return to normal along with their speech.

"What about it" Mir asked innocently, pretending like she was not just about to do it on Cagalli's new couch.

"It takes about an hour to get there. We should leave now" Mir felt like Cagalli had just kicked her in the gut. She wanted to take Dearka away now. She was scared again. She didn't care how confident Dearka was that he would come back. There still was a chance he may not. But despite how she felt she knew it was time, if she wanted peace for her country she had to say goodbye to Dearka.

The limo ride was quite like dinner. The only sound was the cars outside and the sound of Dearka kissing Miriallia's forehead every so often. When they finally arrived at the shuttle port his parents were waiting, along with about ten elite ZAFT soldiers all of them of course Dearka had out ranked in the academy being tied for number 2 student there since the history of ZAFT. Athrun was number 1 and Dearka and Yzak were tied for 2nd. This fact had only angered the council more.

Dearka let out a big sigh and turned to face his friends. He shook hands with Athrun and Kira, and then hugged and patted each other on the backs. Lacus and Cagalli he hugged and kissed on the cheek. As for Miriallia, he hugged her tightly for about a minute then broke away for a long kiss. After the kiss he whispered in her ear so she would be the only one to hear "You're the only one who makes my heart beat faster and slower at the same time. I love you so much" he kissed her one more time and the he started to walk of before Lacus stopped him. She hand him an envelope.

"What's this?"

"We knew last night you two were going out, this is proof!" She said happily, the started speaking in a sad voice. "Don't forget us, come back not just for Mir but everyone"

"Of course" he waved goodbye and then walked up to the group who was waiting for him. When he got there his father started to walk towards the private shuttle. But Dearka's mother waited for him. He hugged her lovingly and she kissed him on the cheek and he kissed her on the forehead. Everyone watched as the Buster pilot walk out of their lives.

When they we all out of sight Lacus turned to a crying Miriallia and gave her an envelope. "What's this?"

"A copy of what I gave Dearka" Miriallia opened the envelope. Inside was a picture of her and Dearka sharing their first kiss.

"Thank you…" She whispered. Don't you dare break you promise Elsman!
