"Watching the moon set"
Sally turned off the tv and sat in the dark. The worst part about winter is that it gets dark very early. Ottis curled on her lap as Sandy napped on her feet. Lady Une's Christmas eve pantie was in an hour that meant she would have to get started soon. But she wasn't sure if she wanted to go or not. She knew it would make Noin happy and Sally was sure Noin was going to be there. Noin and Zech almost never missed a party, and she dough the fact that her delivery date was within the next 48 hours was going to be a set back. However, the empty feeling in the pit of her stomach grew a bit as the thought of another dance sitting on the side lines. She didn't want to feel that; she didn't want to feel that kind of pain again. Sally suddenly realized that she had no idea how to dance! Well slow dance anyway, she knew how to do the group thing where all the girls gathered for a fast song. Who didn't know that? Despite her strong personality, and sprite she would never ask someone to dance with her. In her mind if she had to ask someone then it meant she really was sad. ` I'm about 25 and I have never slow danced with anyone! How pathetic is that? Everyone I know has danced at least once in their lifetime. Even Wufei, I heard him say he was married once. He had to have danced with her once!`
"Shouldn't you start getting ready?" Wufei came out of the bathroom with a towel around his waist and another he used to dry his hair.
"I'm not going." Sally declared.
"If I have to go, then your going to onna."
"Leave me alone." She said tossing the cat on the couch next to her, and almost stepping on the dog heading for her room. There she lay herself face down on the bed and closed her eyes. It was about six, but Sally figured she could probably sleep from then till the next morning, and miss the whole dreaded thing. If she prayed hard enough. The clock on the side table clicked in a soothing rhythm counting the seconds away one by one. The new dress hung in the closet back the door with a few other accessaries. She closed her eyes and thought about sleeping and all the wonderful things that came with it. The quite, the relaxed felling when waking up in the morning, the strong hands rubbing her shoulders. Working out all that tenseness and frustration from the day. Rubbing her back with firm strong fingers . . . ? Something was not normal here.
"Wufei?"
He gently pulled her to a sitting position next to him, "Why don't you want to go to the dance?" he asked, but she didn't respond.
"Onna, answer me. Are you embarrassed about something?"
"You wouldn't understand."
"Try me."
Sally cleared her throat, " I don't know how to dance . . . no one ever asked me." She said.
Her response took him aback for a moment: it was not what he was expecting. That was the last thing he thought she would have said. The women he had known four years ago would not have worried about such an insignificant thing. Who cares if you know how to dance or not? He sure as hell didn't care! The idea that she might no longer be the strong person she was when they first met scared him. Sally was really slipping away from him.
"See. You have no idea." And flopped back on the bed.
"Why didn't you ask someone then if it meant so much to you? Aren't you supposed to be the onna that never does anything properly?" he asked.
She smiled at the comment, then shock her head in the pillow, "too pathetic."
"All right then. Will you go if I ask you to dance with me?" Wufei almost slapped himself. Why did he say that? That was way too obvious. For a moment Sally didn't move. Maybe she didn't hear him?
"All right I'll go. But you better dance with me or I'll never forgive you."
~~ ** ~~ ** ~~ ** ~~ ** ~~ **~~
He stretched out as far as he could before rolling over onto his back and watching Sally upside down from the bed. His tail thwacked back and forth signifying he was wound up. Ottis watched for anything moving that he might play with. A loss thread, a shew lace, maybe the shine sparkles from the bottom of Sally's new white dress? Yes a nice sparkle! It would be fun to try and rip them off! Then throw them in the air and pounce on them as the hit the floor. Ottis's eyes widened as Sally slipped the dress over her head. The white silk fabric drifted around her as she stood in front of the mirror. The sparkles twinkled like Ottis's eyes as he began to focus on one of the shine specks of light. He crouched on the bed ready to pounce; on tiptoes he moved closer. A soft growl came to his ear and he caught sight if the cocker spinal's white teeth in the corner of his eye. The dam dog new what he was up to! In a flash Ottis took off out the half open door with a yelping dog close at his heals.
Sally smiled at the scene and continued her preparations. The blush brush brushed over her cheeks once more then was placed in the makeup bag. Removing the curlers from the high ponytail let ringlets tumble down the back of her neck. She was almost read to go, and just in time there was about 15 minutes before the party started. The phone rang in the living room, but before she could leave to answer it she heard Wufei get it. She went back to her makeup kit on her dresser table and searched for a good shade of lipstick. Nothing to dark, but she wanted it to be a bit noticeable and decided on a light pink with a silver shimmer threw it.
"Sally." Wufei was outside the door. He gripped the jewelry box in his hand behind his back.
"Come in."
The door opened slowly as he entered he had to blink a few times to make sure that was Sally standing there. She was amazing! Where did she get that body?! It almost didn't even look like the person he knew! She looked like an angel! Absolutely heavenly, bathed in a white halo of light.
"What is it?" she asked dabbing the excess lipstick off her pink lips with a tissue.
"Ah, that was the office. I have to go take care of something right now."
Sally paused and threw the tissue in the garbage can and began to put away the makeup and other stuff. Put the rest of it in the bag and placed that in the drawer. She keeps her eyes from his view. The bit of dampness, a sign of weakness.
"So your not going, I see."
"No. It's nothing big. I'm still going. I'm just going to be a few minutes late that's all. I said I would dance with you and I will."
Sally smiled and approached him. The white dress swayed as she walked. "Really?"
"Yes onna. But your not going to wear those earings are you?"
"What's wrong with them?" a little concerned about her appearance all of a sudden. They were the only ones she really had, and believed they matched but if Wufei noticed . . . what does he know about matching anyway, he's a man!
"I think they should look something like this." Stepping toward her he opened the box for her to see. A pair of diamond studied earing framed in gold rings. Sally was stunned. They were beautiful!
"Do you like them?" he asked. Sally couldn't respond she was too shocked so she nodded.
"Yes! Oh my god Wufei you didn't have to do this! ." Sally gasped. Quickly she took out the ones she had in and replaced them with the diamonds.
"This is your only Christmas gift from me." He said. He drew her hand to his lips and placed a kiss on the soft skin then hurried out the door. Sally stood there stunned speechless for the second time that night. She could still feel his lips on the back of her hand burning the skin.
~~ ** ~~ ** ~~ ** ~~ ** ~~ **~~
"I don't think he's coming Sally." Noin drank the rest of her water. They sat at the end of the large buffet table in the dinning room of Lady Une's mansion. It sat far outside town at the edge of a forest. Une owned the land around for about sixty Acers in every direction.
It was a clear cold night, the dance had worn on all evening but there was no sign of Wufei. It was almost midnight now and the dance was winding down. Duo and Hildy were tearing up the dance floor wile, Quatre and Trowa sat talking at a table in the corner. Somewhere along the line Heero and Relena had vanished without a trace, most likely to find an empty room somewhere. Their wedding was in another month and neither had ever looked happier. Sally sat with Zech and Noin and mostly talked about Lady Une's date. A former Oz soldier that fought that turned out to be Auto's twin brother. He and Zech spent a long time laughing over things they had done wile in training. Yes everyone was there more or less except Wufei. He had not shown up like he said he would, and Sally had still not danced with anyone. Her heart began to sink. A few more songs played and still no Wufei.
~~ ** ~~ ** ~~ ** ~~ ** ~~ **~~
"Quatre I never realized how jealous you can get.!" Trowa took another swig of his beer and glanced across the table at Quatre. He sat there and shoved the cherry from the sundae he had eaten around the dish with his spoon.
"I don't know what you mean Trowa? Why would I be jealous?" he asked innocently.
Trowa finished his beer and gestured to the nearest waiter to bring him another.""You know what I mean. Every time I'm with someone else you become jealous."
"I do not, but I think you've had a few to many. Maybe you should stop wile you're ahead."
"No I'm fine. See if I were to go over there and ask Sally to dance you would be jealous. I mean she looks absolutely ravenous tonight! Who wouldn't want to dance with her?"
"You know no one dances with Sally. Everyone knows how overprotective Wufei is about her, they're afraid of what he would do to them. Poor Sally . . . She cares about him to, just. They can't seem to find a way to talk about it. And I bet she got all dressed up tonight for him too. She looks sad . . . besides you have no feelings for her anyway! It wouldn't mean anything."
"Still make you jealous." Trowa took the new bottle of beer from the waiter and popped off the cap.
"Would not! I think you've had one to many."
"Watch. " Trowa put down the bottle and moved toward where Sally and the others were sitting.
"Hey Sally." Trowa appeared behind her.
"Hello Trowa, enjoying the party?"
"Yes, would you like to dance with me?" he asked. He offered her his hand.
Sally was surprised and gladly accepted his offer. He was not Wufei, but it was a hell of a lot better then sitting on the sidelines for another slow dance. There was a slight bit of pain at the fact that her first dance would no be with Wufei. There were three more songs left; the dance was almost over and had still not shown up, her hope for him was gone. Even if he left right this moment he would still not make it. Trowa guided her out onto the floor into the sea of other couples.
"I have to worn you I'm not that good of a dancer."
"That's all right neither am I." He replied placing a hand on her waist. They began to move around the floor. Lights dimmed, and the disco ball lit everything up. The lights hit the gems on her dress making them dance with light.
"You look lovely tonight." He complemented.
"Thank you." They floated around the floor a few more times. Most of the song drifted by without a word.
"Sally is there something the matter?" Trowa's voice cut into her thoughts.
"Am I that obvious?" `Must be if Trowa is talking this much . . . wait a sec is he drunk?` The smell of alcholo smelled quite strong on his breath. Sally took a quick peak as they turned and saw Quatre looking jealous as a fox, and Trowa in front of her grinning like a cheesier cat! `Quarter, jealous over me and Trowa?! Ya right! Maybe I've had too much to drink!`
"Not really. I just know when there's something wrong . . . I'm sure he wanted to be here."
She smiled and thanked him as the song ended. She watched Trowa sit back down at his and the blond boy's table only to be given the silent treatment.
Trowa took a drink of his beer, "told ya."
Quatre shook his head in defeat, "all right you win this round . . . but I'm not the one who's going to be suffering from one hell of a hang over tomorrow morning will I?"
The next was a fast, up beet song that mostly everyone danced to. No one was paying any attention to her so she except out the French doors and out into the frozen garden. Branches snapped and cracked in the cold air. Light from a full moon made everything glimmer. She stopped at the edge of the garden farthest from the mansion on the edge of an open field. She could see her breath in the air.
"I love the earing Wufei, but I really wanted to dance with you tonight . . . "
"That's why I'm here." Said a voice.
It was Wufei. She turned and found him leaning against the trunk of a tree. His jet black tux matched his loose hair, and eyes.
"You look beautiful."
Sally turned away to try and hide her blush.
"Things took a bit longer then I thought." He held out a white rose. Sally blushed deeper and accepted it. Their hands touched causing sparks to snap at her fingers. His fingertips burned hers. Clouds in the sky drop a light flurry of snow flacks. They sparkled in the sky as they settled in her hair twinkling like a halo.
"I hope you don't mind. I got you something to make up for it. Turn around."
She did so and waited. He stepped closer to her body. She could feel his heat on her back and his warm breath on her neck. His hand brushed against her back making her shiver. Some ruffling around and fabric rubbed against another, there was a soft click of something opening and a sliver chain was place around her neck. Her eyes flew open at the sensation of the cold metal.
She couldn't let this happen. This was to close. It wasn't right. She was going to hurt him if she gave in. He shouldn't have bought her all this stuff. He shouldn't be this kind. He shouldn't be this loving. He can't love her! `Please don't do this . . . I can't stop you Wufei, please forgive me . . . `
He could feel her, smell he, see every curl in her hair. Soft features of her skin, the goos' bumps on her back. Thin straps held her dress, fragile and slender like ice-sickles. The lose front moving up and down as she breathed. Almost hear her heart beating. He was so in love with her. She was his life in every way. The air he breathed, the ground he walked on and everything around. She was the center of his world. His very existence depended on her. `Sally let me love you. If only for a moment.`
The music from the last slow song of the night drifted through the winter garden. She turned to face him. His hand wound its was around her waist on the exposed skin of her back. The other to her head, where it go tangle in her hair. The touch made her gasp and he drew he closer. His onyx eyes burned into hers. They swayed to the soft music form the dance. Their breath became one, and their lips touched for their first real kiss.
`No` Zech watched as the lovers kissed. He stood in the door way to the mansion gardens. Noin is going to be devastated when she finds out. Now she will lose two friends instead of one. His life will end the moment hers does . . . `
"Zech, what's wrong? You looked worried about something." Noin asked approaching him.
He wrapped her in his arms and led her to an empty corner of the dance floor away from the garden door. "Nothing love, just watching the moon set. Come let me dance with you before the night ends."
~~ ** ~~ ** ~~ ** ~~ ** ~~ **~~
"Oh gods . . . " he cut her off again before she could finish. His lips ravaged hers with a deep lusting kiss. He pressed himself against her causing her to gasp. He took this opportunity and explored her mouth with his tongue. Reaching into every corner, dueling for control against hers. So warm, no. Hot! He wanted her so badly it hurt, physically. Every fiber of his being was aware of her potion under him. Her arms around his neck, her legs around his waist, her hair lay out everywhere. Her sent intoxicating, blinding him to the world around. Traiz could have walked in the door and offered him a rematch Wufei would not have noticed. `Sally I love you! Oh naticou forgive me. I cannot help the way I feel about her. Forgive me Sally. I need you.`
The only lighting in the room was from the fire place. Its soft glow lit the living room just enough to set the perfect mood. His fingers burned as they roamed over her. `Wufei I can't say no. You have to stop. Oh please don't do that, it feels too good! I want more! Lots more! Yes, Yes that's it! Oh gods! I want this, I want you the same way you want me I really do! I'm sorry if I'll hurt you but you know my fate, and you want the same.`
Her fingers found their way under his shirt and began to rube his chest and lower abs. Her dress melted off her body under his fingers. He ravaged the soft skin he found there with his tongue. He licked the inside of Sally's legs up to where it joined her body making her cry out in pleasure. His responds was the same when it was her turn.
She could feel him pressing against her center, so hard, and so soft. She wanted it, she needed it, but Wufei was not just going to give in. Harsh words on his lips met with her ear. Words that made her heart sing with joy to the heavens, and break apart. Shatter like glass thrown against the stone wall of reality. Those words made her want to cry, and cry, and cry.
"Marry me!" A struggle to form the words. At least that's what she thought she heard. He was so close to her. He never paused before he was kissing her again, then Sally was sure she had heard right.
"I love you . . . "
"Wufei I . . . "he pressed his hard member against her harder, tempting to enter. Her breath caught in her throat, the sensation sent shivers of pleasure through her body. She couldn't take much more of that. His sent surrounded her, he seemed to be everywhere. His hands were all over her, touching every inch of skin.
She formed the last word before her world split in two," ye. Yes." The last word before her world was ripped in two.
"I love you . . . "

He could feel her, smell he, see every curl in her hair. Soft features of her skin, the goos' bumps on her back. Thin straps held her dress, fragile and slender like ice-sickles. The lose front moving up and down as she breathed. Almost hear her heart beating. He was so in love with her. She was his life in every way. The air he breathed, the ground he walked on and everything around. She was the center of his world. His very existence depended on her. `Sally let me love you. If only for a moment.`
The music from the last slow song of the night drifted through the winter garden. She turned to face him. His hand wound its was around her waist on the exposed skin of her back. The other to her head, where it go tangle in her hair. The touch made her gasp and he drew he closer. His onyx eyes burned into hers. They swayed to the soft music form the dance. Their breath became one, and their lips touched for their first real kiss.
`No` Zech watched as the lovers kissed. He stood in the door way to the mansion gardens. Noin is going to be devastated when she finds out. Now she will lose two friends instead of one. His life will end the moment hers does . . . `
"Zech, what's wrong? You looked worried about something." Noin asked approaching him.
He wrapped her in his arms and led her to an empty corner of the dance floor away from the garden door. "Nothing love, just watching the moon set. Come let me dance with you before the night ends."

"Oh gods . . . " he cut her off again before she could finish. His lips ravaged hers with a deep lusting kiss. He pressed himself against her causing her to gasp. He took this opportunity and explored her mouth with his tongue. Reaching into every corner, dueling for control against hers. So warm, no. Hot! He wanted her so badly it hurt, physically. Every fiber of his being was aware of her potion under him. Her arms around his neck, her legs around his waist, her hair lay out everywhere. Her sent intoxicating, blinding him to the world around. Traiz could have walked in the door and offered him a rematch Wufei would not have noticed. `Sally I love you! Oh naticou forgive me. I cannot help the way I feel about her. Forgive me Sally. I need you.`
The only lighting in the room was from the fire place. Its soft glow lit the living room just enough to set the perfect mood. His fingers burned as they roamed over her. `Wufei I can't say no. You have to stop. Oh please don't do that, it feels too good! I want more! Lots more! Yes, Yes that's it! Oh gods! I want this, I want you the same way you want me I really do! I'm sorry if I'll hurt you but you know my fate, and you want the same.`
Her fingers found their way under his shirt and began to rube his chest and lower abs. Her dress melted off her body under his fingers. He ravaged the soft skin he found there with his tongue. He licked the inside of Sally's legs up to where it joined her body making her cry out in pleasure. His responds was the same when it was her turn.
She could feel him pressing against her center, so hard, and so soft. She wanted it, she needed it, but Wufei was not just going to give in. Harsh words on his lips met with her ear. Words that made her heart sing with joy to the heavens, and break apart. Shatter like glass thrown against the stone wall of reality. Those words made her want to cry, and cry, and cry.
"Marry me!" A struggle to form the words. At least that's what she thought she heard. He was so close to her. He never paused before he was kissing her again, then Sally was sure she had heard right.
"I love you . . . "
"Wufei I . . . "he pressed his hard member against her harder, tempting to enter. Her breath caught in her throat, the sensation sent shivers of pleasure through her body. She couldn't take much more of that. His sent surrounded her, he seemed to be everywhere. His hands were all over her, touching every inch of skin.
She formed the last word before her world split in two," ye. Yes." The last word before her world was ripped in two.
"I love you . . . "
