Mia has been thinking.
In this case, it hasn't been a good thing. It's been thinking about how to bring up a subject she's somewhat reluctant to discuss and Draco is likely reluctant to talk about, but it has to be done.
She eventually decides to be straightforward, even skipping past the phrase "We have to talk" and getting directly to the subject.
It might not be the best thing to bring up relaxing together on the sofa.
"Draco, I met Scarlet a few nights ago."

"I see. I'm sure that she's well, not that she's much for the truth."

Well, she is described as the Prince(ss) of Lies.
"She mentioned you."
Mia wouldn't mind so much with other mortals, but this is the Devil.

She has a guilty look on her face, as the first thing that jumps to her mind is an heir to the Malfoy name.

"Power, wealth. My enemies at my feet."
He added, "You by my side. As an equal."

But it trails off when he mentions her.
"Me? I was in your fantasy?"
Her cheeks are tinted pink.

She starts to relax a little against Draco's arm.
"I guess I don't really have a reason to worry. It was just a fantasy. Nothing came of it. And you said we were equals. I suppose you thought up some nice ladies in waiting for me and such."
From:

Draco just simply said to her last comments.
"Something like that." More like ladies waiting on *him.*
From:

"Some for you too? To feed you grapes and rub your back?"
From:

"....more like all"
From:

Beat.
"Well, it was your fantasy. You don't really worry about other people in those cases, right? I was just sitting in the spot next to your throne, wasn't I?"
And if Fantasy her wanted servants to wait on her, they would have. Draco just wasn't thinking about that since he was thinking about how good he had it.

If it was during that time of absence, she could understand wanting what was offered in the trick. Even if she's not sure she really likes what happened.

Though it does almost look like she is trying to cover herself in spite of the fact that she's fully dressed.
You would do that to me? When did you know you loved me? How long did it take for you to start fantasizing about me?
These run among other thoughts inside her head, but she doesn't really feel like saying any of them.

Draco glanced down, and remarked, "You were different. I didn't want you groveling, I wanted you at my side. Something in all that, I realized that I love you."

Mia gets up, arms still around her, and says, "I have to think about this..."
From:

Draco flopped back with a sigh.
"...........Bugger."
From:

"You don't have to leave. I'll go. To Meribia, and stay with Jessica."
Sigh.
"Maybe there's a reason why the Ausa family never gets married. Maybe you would have been better off just as my Premier..."

"What....? No, Mia... Merlin take it, it was a long time ago! I've changed!"
