Reflection



Treize lay alone awake in his bed. He was naked under the white sheets that spread over his midsection and legs, leaving his lean torso exposed. The room was decorated with scented vanilla candles. He was in the Caribbean on a much needed vacation. The breeze caressed the light cotton curtains that adorned the large floor windows of his house. Everything around him was white and peaceful. The night animals formed an orchestra as they sang their respective songs and chants.

He inhaled the exquisite air that surrounded him, it was a good combination of vanilla and jasmine, a tinge of orchids. It was warm, the night was perfect, but something was missing, someone was missing he was alone. He looked over to his right where his bed was empty. He signed peacefully, he wasn’t sure who he wanted there. Zechs was dead, Mirialdo was once again reborn. They were the same man, same physical features at least. But their proposes were very different.

Mirialdo was a peace maker, an Ambassador. Zechs, was a warrior, lighting Baron. He was like a coin, that just flipped over.
Treize’s heart skipped a beat, he knew Lady Une was outside, she is very devoted, he was sure she would never betray him. She would do anything to ensure that his propose be fulfilled. But this loyalty was dangerous, her devotion towards him leads her to make irrational decisions, she doesn’t understand him like Zechs/Mirialdo, so hard to find a name. "Such a beautiful man, perfect he truly understands me. Yes he does."

"Maybe I should send Lady on an indefinite vacation and hire someone to replace her for a while." Hmm an interesting idea but could he trust that person?, would they understand him? Would they understand this Organization?

"Ah, it’s useless, even Lady Une doesn’t understand either of the above mentioned and she’s been with me since or almost the beginning of my career. Who could fill her shoes. If man had never conquered space, all these problems would have never arose. The mechs, the Alliance. And I wouldn’t feel so old."

"Enough, enough of this depressing reflection, things have changed, Zechs is no longer on my side, he no longer believes in my cause. It’s so hard. I need to sleep, I hope Lady Une doesn’t get any ideas and comes in here. I need to have a serious talk to her about her feelings towards me. Maybe I should take on a lover, maybe then she’d stay focused. Ha, but who, those darn soldiers, none of them could understand me, only Zechs, my love."

"The Gundam pilots think they have it hard." He rolled onto his side and cuddled with a pillow, just once, just one more time I would like to have him by my side.

Treize fell into a deep sleep, he awoke to a hand caressing his back. He loved the way it felt, so warm, so familiar. "Zechs," he called out.
"Yes my love," he heard someone respond.
"Is it really you?"
"Hai, it is me." Zechs was laying beside him, naked. Caressing Treize’s body, his fingers lingered sensually all across the lean figure. He saw Treize close his eyes once again just enjoying the feel of those loving fingers upon his body. They were both silent and laid together in each others arms. Touching, kissing. Treize felt the touch of Zechs’s tongue on his lips, his tongue gently caressed his bottom lip. He parted his lips and let the enticing intruder in. They kissed slowly, they tasted each other, every inch of the mouths. Zechs’s hand lingered through Treize’s hair. They continued to kiss and savor each other.

Zechs lowered his hand to caress Treize’s pelvis, and then his fingers lingered lower, they now lay still on Treize’s loins, he arched his hips and enjoyed the feel of Zechs’s hand upon his most intimate spot. They continued exploring each others mouth and began to make love. They kissed each other all over, caressing, tasting, heaving. "Your Excellency, master Treize, it’s time for you to awake sir," said Une as she shook his body and enjoyed the warmth of his skin under her fingers. "Hmm, no, no…" he protested.
"Treize, Treize, it’s ok, I’m here!"
"Zechs…"
"Hai"
"Oh, I thought Lady Une was trying to awaken me."
"No, I’m here."
"I can’t believe it, my love!"
"Nani? Are you ok?"
"Yes I guess I just had a bad dream."

Treize found himself in his mansion outside Kiev, Zechs lay next to him holding him. Was it just a dream or a premonition, he asked himself nervously.
