Title: Military Furlough (2) Rating: PG-13 Word Count: 193 Pairing: Maura/Kel Fight: 1C Summary: A knight has to wash the grime off of her… it’s nice to have help.
It was good that Maura had the run of the castle, Kel thought, as she washed off the grime from the road. Their arrangement was not an easily understood one, and she would hate for rumors to reach the capital that would hurt either of her lovers. The lady of Cavall had little complaint of her husband’s activities, but her daughters certainly would question it. And Maura… her entire reputation could be ruined. Kel had a hundred negative stories spread about her; she wondered how people would react if they knew a portion of them were true.
Maura came in without knocking; it was almost as if the girl didn’t know doors were closed for reasons. Maybe this was how she discovered her sister’s treason, so long ago.
“Are you coming out any time soon, Kel?” she asked, kneeling next to the washtub.
“It’s been three days since I had a bath,” Kel answered, stretching her legs out in the hot water. “I bet Wyldon’s still enjoying his.”
Maura’s smile was mischievous. “Oh, he’s been enjoying his.”
“You’re so dirty,” Kel replied with a laugh.
“Shall I come in and clean myself off?”

Yay, I love this, and Maura's wordplay at the end, and the mention of treason in the middle <3
