"Baby Series 2"Written By: Karina
Spoilers: None Disclaimer: I don’t own Gundam Wing or the
Characters from the series but the baby is mine. Pairing: Milliardo + Relena Notes: Challenge 50. Baby Series 2 #135. Takes place approximately one hour following How Do You Sleep?.
Changed Circumstances “Milliardo? You look a million miles away. What is wrong?” Relena looked quite fetching in the powder blue business suit. Her penchant for wearing what might be termed male clothing was offset by the very feminine cut. Not even from a rear view would one be able to mistake the wearer for male. “Nothing.” Gently he rubbed the back of the child snuggled to his broad chest. “I would have thought it a little early for Stephan to be taking a nap.” Milliardo sighed. “He’s feeling a little sorry for himself at the moment. Are you going somewhere?” Relena broke into a beaming smile and nodded, moving further into the room. “Heero is taking me shopping for the afternoon.” He should question her on the wisdom of such an action. Her suitors would consider it an unfair advantage afforded to Yuy and he could expect repercussions. He should forbid the excursion for those very reasons but he knew for Relena there was no interest in anyone other than Yuy and for her to be a young woman free of the constraints of duty was a rare novelty. Against his chest Stephan stirred, one hand rising to lock into a fold of his shirt and in his sleep the baby snuffled. “What happened to him?” Relena hurried forward to study the scratches on the tiny hand. “Stephan met his Warterloo at the hands of Nelson.” “Excuse me? Nelson?” Milliardo inclined his head to the fireplace and the small bundle of fur curled asleep. “Oh dear.” “The young have to learn.” He sighed and smoothed his son’s curly pale hair. “I questioned Heero on his intentions toward you before this courtship began. I think I should question you concerning your intentions.” “Pardon?” “Heero reinvented himself to pay court to you. He considered his past and what he might have to offer in the future and changed the course of his life. I think you need to consider that.” “I don’t understand. I’ve told you I intend to take the position of Foreign Minister when it is offered next year.” “In your plans for your new future did you give consideration to the changed circumstances taking place in your life now?” “Circumstances?” “Heero is no longer your bodyguard.” “Yes, I know!” She beamed at her brother. “I did not know you intended to become Foreign Minister at the time I offered the position to Heero.” “I don’t understand. Is there a problem?” “I am afraid there will be.” He sighed. “How so?” “Heero accepted the position I offered him and now I see there may be a conflict between that position and the needs of your new position should you accept the appointment. When Heero completes his training he will become Hunter.” “I don’t see the problem.” Her bottom lip trembled as she began to see the dilemma dawning. “How many days in the last two years has the Foreign Minister spent in his home on Earth, Sister?” End
