AC 203
Hilde watched the pair, half wanting to flee, half wanting to kill someone. Quatre didn't tell her that they would be here. Duo and Heero. A couple, the pair who broke her heart 3 years ago. Three years ago it happened, she should be over it, but Duo Maxwell wasn't someone you just got over like that. The sex alone was enough to remember for 10 lifetimes, but Duo decided that he wanted to be with Heero and Heero only. She would have agreed to share him, but Heero, well Heero wasn't the sharing kind. So she had to let him go and watch him be happy with someone else. Life truly sucked.
Relena watched her, she had the same reaction when Heero married Duo. Luckily for her, she wasn't as deeply in love with Heero as Hilde had been with Duo, but it still hurt. A soft squeeze on her arm startled Relena from her thoughts. Quatre smiled at her, guessing her thoughts. She never knew that Quatre had been in love with her until that night, Duo and Heero's wedding night, where she got drunk, Quatre took her home, and she ended up sleeping with him. 'God, I thought he was gay! Thank God he wasn't!', Relena thought with a soft giggle. Unfortunately, it wasn't the same for Hilde.
Quatre stood next to his girlfriend, his breath sending shivers down her spine as he whispered in her ear. "Don't worry, Lena, I think Hilde will begin to forget about Duo tonight.". Relena turned to look at Quatre skeptically, but he was gone, faded into the crush.
Hilde took another glass of champagne, wishing it was just a tad bit stronger, as she enviously watched the couples on the dance floor. "It's too early to be getting drunk.", a masculine voice commented from the sideline. Hilde turned, surprised that it was Trowa. Hilde gave him a nod of acknowledgement, which he returned. "You know, Duo will never be fully happy with Heero until he knows that you are happy.", Trowa said, his eyes never leaving her. Hilde snorted before saying, "Odds are that he'll never will.", before walking out of the bathroom.
Walking into the garden, Hilde sat down on a bench, only to have Trowa sit down next to her. "Whaa?", Hilde asked before Trowa leaned into her side, his chocolate scented breath fanning her face. Trowa asked, "Hilde, are you still in love with Duo?", his face and expression serious. Hilde looked in his eyes, the forest green pools swimming in front of her. Hilde thought for a moment, then answered, "I truly don't know anymore."
Trowa slowly smiled before saying, "Then I think you would have no problem if I just had a little taste." He kissed her, his lips melting into hers in that age-old rhythm, his tongue slowly nibbling her lips, urging her mouth to open up to him. Hilde complied with his silent request, her mouth opening up to his questing tongue, tasting him as he tasted her. They stayed like this for a while, just lazily tasting each other before Trowa stopped it, panting for air. Stunned by what she just did, Hilde gazed at him as Trowa stood up, brushed off his pants, and walked back inside, as he smiled and winked at her.
Hilde shook her head and walked back in. She wouldn't think of him like that, even though his kiss brought up memories, of the first time she saw him. He was hot, well, he was still hot. Hilde groaned, she was getting shots of his muscular chest in her head and that wasn't good, if she didn't want to be drooling over what was in her mind all night. Hilde stalked back inside, intent on adding Trowa to her list of people to ignore.
Trowa watched Hilde as she walked back in, as if she was going to kill someone. He had waited 8 years, he was tired of waiting, it was going to be either tonight or never. Quatre had assured him, that he thought she was ready for a relationship, and quite willing even if she wasn't aware of it. Duo had threatened to kill him if he hurt Hilde, but he gave his blessing. Heero and Wufei had no reaction, but he thought that maybe Heero was relieved, he would no longer have to worry about Duo leaving him for Hilde.
Hilde rolled her eyes as she finished talking to Dorothy. 'Damn, that woman could be a nut sometimes.', Hilde thought as she saw Trowa looking at her once again. Hilde blushed before noticing it, scowling afterwards.
Walking out of the ballroom, again, Hilde didn't notice that Trowa decided to follow her, once again. Walking through the hallways of Quatre's huge mansion, Hilde stopped in front of a huge mirror. 'Wow, this reminds me of the things that they talked about in those European mansions of those former Romafeller generals.', Hilde thought. Her thoughts were interrupted as she felt a strong arm grab her close to him.
Her instincts telling her that it was Trowa, Hilde leaned back against him, his body warm against hers. Whispering into her ear, Trowa said, "I thought you were ignoring me, Hilde.", the syllables of her name flowing off of his tongue like a caress. Hilde moaned softly, Trowa's voice and his fingers, questing down the front of her dress were overpowering her, making her surrender to whatever he planned.
Trowa smiled with male satisfaction as he sensed Hilde's surrender to him. Trowa picked Hilde up, carrying her to the room that he had at this particular mansion. Opening and closing the door, Trowa deposited Hilde on the bed before quickly stripping. Seeing Trowa's haste, Hilde giggled to which Trowa answered, "I've been waiting so long for this moment." Hilde giggled again before letting Trowa take off her dress and undergarments.
Naked to his eyes, Hilde watched Trowa as he stretched, before she kissed him, their tongues wresting as they tasted each other tentatively again. Trowa grinned as he ended the kiss, his eyes showing long-buried feelings. Stretched over Hilde, Trowa said, "It may seem rash, but I love you, I have ever since the day I saw you.", his eyes hopeful of her expected reaction. Hilde lowered her eyes before saying, "I felt something for you since when I first saw you. Now I see that it was love.". Trowa smiled broadly before taking her into her arms, finishing what they started.
