Author's notes: All the standard stuff applies. I don't Athrun Zala or Meyrin Hawke, I don't own Gundam SEED DESTINY or Gundam saga. SUNRISE is the corporation lucky enough to own them and the series they come from.
I'm also pleased that people like this interpretation of AsuXMey. You'll just have to wait and see where it goes.
(PLANT: Aprilius 1: Urban District 5: Restaurant: 2507)
Meyrin sat at the table for two and poked the bread in the middle of the table and realized it was stale. She waved down a waitress and proceeded to put on her best mean face.
"Yes, Miss?" the girl asked.
"This bread is stale." Meyrin said pointing at the basket and doing her best to turn her nose up at it. She normally wouldn't go to such a fancy restaurant. But she was hiding out from Athrun. He had already left several messages at her work and had even sent flowers. Apparently he thought that sending flowers would make everything better.
"I am sorry Miss, I will bring you some fresh bread." The girl said grabbing the basket off of the table and walking away. Shortly after her salad was brought to her as well as fresh bread. She poked at her salad and took a few bites of bread. Her appetite had gone out the window after the heated argument.
Am I being too much of a prude? No, of course not! Athrun needs to learn patience. He can't expect me to just lie down and let him take me. I mean I only met him little over a year ago. He can't expect me to do it! I need to be harder on him or he'll just take what he wants from me. Meyrin thought trying to look interested in her meal.
"What are you doing here?" asked a familiar voice. Meyrin snapped her head to see her sister clad in a commercial pilots uniform. The fact that Luna was wearing a long skirt was surprising.
"I – None of your business Luna! I could ask you the same thing!" Meyrin quipped as she watched Luna sit. The longer skirt really seemed to be bothering her.
"Still spitting fire I see. No wonder Athrun looked like he had been chewed out." Luna said flatly and grabbed a breadstick and started chomping on it.
"Luna! Stop eating like an animal! Athrun deserved what he got!" Meyrin snapped.
"Oh? Do I embarrass you that much Mey-rey?" Luna blurted using a childhood nickname. Meyrin, clearly furious, grabbed her purse from the table and began to get up.
"Sit down Meyrin. I normally eat here so people are used to me." Luna said sipping a glass of water. Meyrin obeyed her older sister and sat back down, but didn't look Luna in the face.
"I think we need to talk little sister." Luna said causing Meyrin to look her square in the eye,
"About my love life? No thanks. I don't think I need any advice from you. I know how to keep my legs closed." Meyrin sounded off, not trying to hide her anger. Luna swallowed hard as to indicate letting the last part of the comment slide and then spoke.
"Are you really that jealous of me Meyrin? I admit that I do like the racy side of my wardrobe. But you make it sound like I'm a whore." Luna said biting back on her growing frustration. If she was going to be any help she would have to get through Meyrin's jealousy complex.
"Well if the shoe fits." Meyrin said. Luna reeled from the comment. She must really be bothered by this. It's really making her splurge out of character. Luna thought as she tried to think of what she could say to help her sister who was apparently distressed by it.
"Let me tell you something that I never said to anyone. Back in secondary school and even in the academy the boys were smitten with you Meyrin. They allways asked about you and wanted to date you. But they didn't want to hurt you and every time they came near you. You would run away because you thought that they only wanted you for sex." Luna said.
"Why should I believe you Luna? You were allways trying to get their attention. I allways thought that when they approached me they just wanted to score with top gun Hawke's little sister! I was right to push them away!" Meyrin squeaked out and glared into Luna's eyes.
"Is that what you really think Meyrin? The boys never paid attention to me! No matter how many of them I liked I was just 'one of the guys' to them. So I started wearing striped underwear and short skirts to show them I was a woman. Don't think that I did it to make you look bad or feel ashamed of me. I did it because I wanted a guy to notice me!" Luna said slamming her fist on the table. Now everybody was looking at them.
"Really? Luna I had no idea." Meyrin said with tears streaming down her face.
"Look, that's not important anymore. But you need to stop making Athrun pay for your insecurities. And to do that we need to do something about your perception. My flight was grounded today so I'll be home when you finish work. I'll probably be in my room so come and see me. It's time we started being sisters again and help each other out." Luna said getting up from the table.
"Don't worry about the bill, I'll cover it." Luna said and went off to the counter. Meyrin stood up and went back to work curious of what Luna had planned.
(PLANT: Aprilius 1: Apartment complex 05-D, Apartment 3560)
Meyrin walked through the door of the apartment and was greeted by loud music. Annoyed, she went into the kitchen where she found Luna dancing with a broom. She set her suitcase and purse on the table and sat at the counter waiting to be noticed by her sister.
"Hey! About time you showed up!" Luna said kicking back a bottle that looked like beer. Meyrin glared at her.
"What? This?" Luna said holding the bottle out. "It's non-alcoholic. Here have a drink!" she said handing over the bottle. Meyrin took a good look at Luna and concluded she wasn't drunk, just bouncing around like she allways did.
"Nuh-uh! I don't care if it's real or not!" Meyrin said pushing the beer away.
"Come on Mey-rey! Your gonna loosen up and have a good time tonight!" the elder said walking out from behind the counter wearing a tank top and boxers. Meyrin sighed and pushed the beer farther away.
"Good time? What do you mean? Where are you … hey!" Luna grabbed Meyrin's arm and dragged her sister into her room. Meyrin had hardly if ever been in Luna's room. It was adorned with MS plans all over the walls and a ZAKU grenade serving as a nightstand. She also had dark purple silk sheets on her bed which made Meyrin grimace.
"Here go put these on!' Luna said passing a pile of clothing into Meyrin's arms. Meyrin looked at the top garment and shook her head negatively.
"No way Luna! I wouldn't be caught dead in this stuff!" Meyrin said trying to give the clothing back.
"That's the entire point sister. You want to see if Athrun has true feelings for you?" Luna asked.
"What do you mean?" Meyrin asked.
"Look, just trust me for once ok?" Luna said and pushed Meyrin into her bathroom and locked the door from the outside.
"Luna! Why did you lock me in your bathroom?" Meyrin said from behind the door.
"I'm not letting you out until you put those clothes on." Luna said sitting on her bed sorting through a pile of her own clothing trying to find another outfit for herself since she had given Meyrin her tackiest outfit.
It wasn't until sometime later that Luna heard Meyrin trying the knob. She knew it was sometime later because she had already picked out her outfit.
"You got those clothes on yet?" Luna asked.
"Yes, now will you let me out please?" Meyrin responded.
"Sure thing!" Luna said while walking over and turned the lock. The door cracked and Meyrin poked her head out.
"Now come out." Luna said signaling with her hand.
"I don't wanna!" Meyrin whispered.
"Meyrin, if you want to test Athrun's feelings for you will come out of that bathroom right now!" Luna said. Meyrin sighed and opened the door and stepped out. Luna then gasped.
Meyrin wore a baby doll T-shirt with the saying "I'll be a bad girl if you will be a good boy." The text strained across Meyrin's bust and inspired some glares from Luna who was clearly jealous.
"Heh" Meyrin uttered sheepishly. Luna also noticed the straps of Meyrin's bra sticking out but she could fix that pretty easily. She continued to examine her sister. The shirt stopped just above the waist exposing Meyrin's stomach which for all of her complaining looked really good.
Then, she wore a micro-mini skirt that was plaid. The skirt covered her well enough though anybody that was sitting down while she stood up could see the panties she was wearing which were also cut more then Meyrin would like. To finish the outfit, fishnet stockings secured to her legs by a garter belt finished off the look.
"That looks really good on you, Sis" Luna said.
"Says you! I look like I should be standing on a corner in the art district." Meyrin whined.
"Here go put this on. Your bra straps ruin the outfit." Luna said handing her a thin tank top.
"You can't be serious! I've never gone without a bra my entire life!" Meyrin said.
"It's better then nothing. Look, go put it on and then we'll see about finding you some shoes and fixing your hair up." Luna said pushing her back into the bathroom. With Meyrin safely in the bathroom, Luna fished her mobile off of the garter on her leg and dialed.
"Asuka, What do you want?" answered an annoyed Shinn on the other end.
"Is that any way to greet the one person who holds your fun in her hands?" Luna snapped back.
"Where the hell are you? I've been here for 3 hours keeping the 'guest' busy." Shinn said
"It's taken a little longer then expected. Are you keeping him away from the bar?" She asked.
"Yes, I've been playing pool with him and I'm almost out of money!" Shinn retorted.
"We'll be there soon, does he suspect?" Luna asked.
"No, he's too busy beating the pants off of me to care what's going on." He said
"Oh, he'll notice when we get there. This will be good for the both of them." Luna said hanging up and looked in her closet for shoes. Meyrin came out wearing the tank top under her shirt and didn't seem too happy about it.
"Good now put these on." Luna said handing over the boots. Meyrin sat on the bed and put the boots on.
"Where are you taking me?" Meyrin asked.
"To have some fun! Your seventeen not thirty!" Luna said walking over to Meyrin and gave her an energy drink.
"What's this for?" she asked.
"Will you stop asking questions and just trust me?" Luna asked. Meyrin cocked her head and then slammed the drink causing herself to burp loudly.
"Let's get you out of here before it starts to work." Luna said walking around to Meyrin's back and pulled the waistband of the panties up to their proper place.
"There up my butt now, it feels weird." Meyrin responded.
"It's the proper way to wear them and you'll get used to it as the night goes on." Luna said grabbing Meyrin by the arm and lead her out of the apartment and on the way to the club were Shinn and Athrun were.
Author notes: The concept of Meyrin's 'outfit' came from BadGirl!Meyrin who was thought up by Aralana (Mey-chan). And to the answer why Meyrin is dressed in such a way. Well, you'll have to wait until the next chapter to find out.
