Jess aqu?! I think I said that right? or maybe not, I?d have to ask someone that speaks Spanish. So anyway.. I kinda hinted at how this will all wrap up in the last chapter and for now I wanted to have a chapter without Kate in it. This also needs to be done before I go to Cancun. I?ll have no access to a computer and the frustration would kill me.
I don?t own Gundam Wing, but can I have it? I mean, it?s not on the air anymore anyway?
My Baby- Chapter 6
December 1st- Later that year
The mood in the Yuy household had become lighter since that day in January. Though their search never ceased and their hope never diminished, the Yuy?s went on as normally as possible.
Gabriella?s birthday passed in July and the four-year-old was a becoming more like her mother with each day. Her shoulder length hair was always brushed and well kept. After insisting to be taught to read, Gabby became an avid reader and an excellent storyteller. No longer did the child want to be read to at night, but instead she would read her favorite fairytales to her parents before bed.
Relena tiredly packed a sack lunch that would be taken with Heero to work in the morning. Rubbing her eyes she checked off another day on the calendar and paused when she noticed tomorrow?s date. Her son?s birthday. He would be a year-old tomorrow; had he never disappeared she and Heero would be frantically wrapping last minute gifts right now and icing his birthday cake. Tears sprung to her eyes when she tried to picture what he would look like at this moment.
The kitchen light flipped on and Heero looked at her curiously. ?Babe, what?s wrong??
She turned her tear-filled gaze at him and put her arms out, mimicking Gabby?s motion to be held. When his arms wrapped around her she whispered, ?He?ll be one tomorrow, Heero.? then buried her face in his shirt. There he held her, their tears mixing, until late into the night.
December 2nd; 3:21 pm
Heero rubbed his temples and tried to zone back into the pointless meeting. He couldn?t concentrate when Relena was home by herself, most likely very upset. He?d taken Gabby to Duo and Hilde?s on his way here and had just gone through the motions at work. He moved mechanically like he had around this time a year ago. One year; one year and he still felt so guilty. He should have been able to protect his family. But, his son was gone and now that a year had past, he wasn?t so sure anymore if Alex would be found. Everyone standing up pulled Heero from his thoughts; the meeting was over and he was free to go home.
Pausing at the door, he stopped to listen. The sounds of the CD player mingling with the beat of the rain drifted to his attentive ears and he swore he smelt baked foods. Heero reverently hoped it wasn?t a cake for their son; he couldn?t handle that right now. Taking a deep breath he opened the door and the smell of banana nut muffins filled his senses. He crept into the kitchen where he found Relena swaying to an old Amy Grant CD. Using a batter covered spoon as a microphone; she belted out the words and hopped about the kitchen. The site caused a huge stupid grin to cover his face and it wasn?t long before he couldn?t hold it in anymore?
Relena stopped dancing and spun around; was he seriously laughing at her? She placed her hand on her hips and tried to glare at him but failed miserably. Succumbing to her own laughter she grabbed his hand and they danced in the kitchen until all the batter was baked and the muffins wrapped up in the refrigerator. And for the rest of the afternoon they made lazy love to the sound of the rain pelting the windows.

Poor Heero....
**hugs Heero** It wasn't your fault! The evil authoress took your baby!
Heero: **glares at DLK** Give me back my son.
DLK: EEEK! **points at Kate** Her! Her! She did it!!!!
^__^ Relena and Heero dancing and making love is always enough to put a smile on my face (although I suspect Relena has been drinking the vanilla extract).
Next chapter!
