“It’s alright... you’re doing fine... just breath…” Duo kept up the gently intoned instructions all the way to the hospital. The paramedics had refused to let more than one of them ride with her and strangely enough she’d cried out for Duo. “Damn,” he chuckled, feeling very lightheaded as he brushed the sweat dampened bangs from her face. “What?!” she ground out through clenched teeth as she clamped down on his hand so hard he felt the bones creak. “You’re just... Jesus,” he breathed, completely overwhelmed by emotion. “You look so damn beautiful,” he laughed, unable to keep himself from steeling a small kiss from her. He knew it was more than a little strange but he couldn’t help himself, in that moment he truly felt he loved her with all his heart. “Duo?” she groaned through her teeth and deep breathing. “Hm?” he smiled at her dopily. “You’re a very weird guy.” “Yeah,” Duo giggled. “So I’ve been told. Easy! Breathe...that’s it… you’re doing great…” Zechs, What, Michael, Howard and the Sweepers were already at the hospital when they arrived, waiting anxiously as they took Relena off the ambulance. “Are you the father?” the doctor asked Duo. “Mother,” the boy replied absently, unable to take his smiling eyes off Relena. “What?” “Yeah?” “Are you related?” “He’s the Dad,” What grinned pointing at Hiiro who looked like he might just faint. “You’re the father?” the doctor asked. “Yeah,” Wufei and Hiiro answered in unison before following the gurney inside with a very confused doctor on their heels. Zechs had Hiire who had been staying with him for the week but Duo insisted that she be brought to the hospital when her brother was born. The doctor had declared that only one `father` was allowed in the delivery room but a quick flash of the short barrel hidden under Modeal’s black jacket had quickly changed his mind. Hiiro took one hand and Duo the other with Wufei backing Hiiro up since he really looked pale and unsteady as they helped to bring their new child into the world. The labor was mercifully short and given that she had three men in her face the entire time she’d had little time to really dwell on the pain so Akae had been born without the sound of screams and anguished cries that usually accompanied a birth. None of them were surprised when the doctor announced that it was a boy because Duo had declared that fact long ago and no one had really thought to doubt it. Hiiro swayed a little and fell back on his ass to be supported by Wufei’s arms as he gazed in wide eyed wonder at the messy little child before them. His skin was dark and he was covered in white stuff and brown stuff and sticky stuff and his head was a little misshapen, he had a long bloody cord hanging from his stomach and his face was all screwed up but he was the most beautiful thing any of them had ever seen. They sat in silence still holding Relena’s hands as she watched; her blue eyes drowsy with exhaustion as the nurses cleaned him up. He started crying when they cleared out his nose and mouth bringing Hiiro right up out of his seat, the protective gleam in his dark blue eyes softening as Wufei laid a soothing hand on his arm and pulled him back down. Relena squeezed his hand reassuringly and smiled tiredly when he looked a little embarrassed by his actions. Soon the cleaning was done and they wrapped him up in a little white blanket and brought him over, holding him up to the new mother for inspection. She smiled. He was a lot cuter without all the goo. Then the nurse smiled and held up a pair of surgical scissors and they just kind of stared at them. “You do it,” Hiiro said to his husband. Duo looked at them then shook his head. “It’s the father’s job,” he smiled but then both Hiiro and Wufei moved at the same time and retreated in unison. Relena chuckled, pulling her hand from Duo’s grasp and taking them in her hand. No one had any objections; it seemed poetically just somehow that she should be the one to cut the cord. Once this task was done the nurse finished wrapping him up and started to hand him to Relena but she just shook her head and smiled at the woman’s curious expression indicating that Duo should be the recipient of the boy. The nurse looked oddly upset by this request but obeyed just the same; laying the baby in Duo’s waiting arms. Hiiro and Wufei moved around to his side so they could get a better look. He had dark hair, black even and as silken as his Chinese father’s. “Is he Asian?” Wufei asked, curious for the first time who the child’s biological father might be. Relena nodded. “Chinese?” the raven hared boy asked hopefully but she only rolled her eyes as Hiiro smacked him in the back of the head. “Hello, Akae,” Duo smiled, kissing his new son on the nose. The nurse blanched and turned her head when Hiiro leaned in and stole one from Duo. When Wufei decided to jump in on the fun the doctor decided this would be a good time to remove the nurse and guided the red faced woman out of the delivery room. Hiiro and Wufei stayed there huddled around Duo and the baby for a long time just admiring the boy’s new born beauty then Hiiro caught a glimpse of Relena out of the corner of his eye, just laying there half dozing as she watched the three of them, a kind of relieved, contented smile on her lips. He offered Duo a look full of the purest love from the deepest corners of his heart then walked over to her, leaned down and kissed her softly on the mouth. She was crying when he pulled away and he smiled at her as he wiped the silent tears away. “Thank you,” he told her, meaning it more than he’d ever meant anything in his life. She looked as if she were going to reply but thought better of it and only nodded her acceptance before relaxing back into the pillows and nodding off. The three remained at the hospital with her. Duo even stayed the night which meant the baby got to stay in the room with them instead of in the nursery which was loud, busy and sterile of everything from germs to emotions. What and Michael had spent a great deal of time at Relena’s bedside as well over the two days that she remained. Usually, new mothers were released with in a day of the birth but since she had no one at home and had also had her tubes tied they kept her an extra day. It was understood that once the baby came she would return to her home. Duo was having second thoughts about that part of the arrangement however, as she still looked very tired and depleted but when he’d mentioned her possibly coming back to their house for a while to Hiiro he’d been dead set against it. He didn’t want the baby endearing himself to her in any way and Hiire was a major consideration as well. Visitations between the siblings had taken place away from Relena so that there was no confusion. The little girl had taken to her new little brother with gusto. She couldn’t wait for her turn to hold him, carefully laying him in her lap and feeding him his bottle. Duo was very fussy at first, hovering over them to be sure she didn’t drop him or something but the girl could drive a pick up truck, handling a baby wasn’t so hard. She’d been instantly enamored with the child and became fiercely protective over him the moment she’d laid eyes on him, taking it upon herself to sing him the lullaby Duo had sung to her over the years that explained the molecular structure of plastic explosives. When it came time for Relena’s release from the hospital Duo was fit to be tied over her going home alone. She still looked so damn tired and weak he just couldn’t put her out like that. He and Hiiro were in a heated argument over the subject by the door as she packed when Howard, What and Michael walked in. “…at her. You can’t expect her to go home and care for…” “Duo, you’re not being reasonable. If you’re worried we can have What…” “Huh?” “What?” “Yeah?” “Shit,” Duo sighed in exasperation, running his hand through his bangs. “We were just wondering if you’d be willing to accompany...” “No,” What replied firmly. Very firmly…with a heated finality in the back of her eyes. “Hiiro,” Duo sighed, the sound clearly pleading for reason. “I’ll go,” Michael chimed in, causing everyone, including Relena to look up at him. Way up as he was a full head taller than everyone else. “You will?” Duo asked, perplexed by the offer. “Sure,” the man smiled going over to help the girl close her bag. “If you want me to,” he added leaving the decision up to Relena. She opened her mouth as if to decline but stopped and glanced at Duo who was looking at her like if she didn’t he was going to kidnap her. “Thank you,” she said finally, accepting his offer in lieu of being abducted. “No problem,” he smiled, shouldering her bag and escorting her out of the room. “Un huh,” Duo grinned, seeming very satisfied with this arrangement as he gathered his new son into his arms and let his lovers take him home. Two weeks later Hiiro was ready to hire a full time nanny just so he could get laid! Everything was about the new baby. Visitors wanted to see the new baby. Callers wanted to talk about the new baby. Duo had actually moved out of their bedroom and into the nursery so he could be near the new baby! Wufei couldn’t stop grinning and get jiggy with him because he was too busy analyzing the origins of THE NEW BABY! Gods, he needed just one night, one night of wild, kinky sex with his lovers. Was that too damn much to ask? Even Trowa had been unavailable and the lack of soft fleshy partners was seriously starting to piss him off! What happened to those days when all he had to do was turn around and there was another sultry lover just begging for his touch? He’d gone from threesomes two times a day to not being able to get ANYONE’S ATTENTION! Ok... he really needed to get laid. “Hiiro?” “What?!” “Umm, I was just going to ask if you’d pick up the breast milk from Relena’s on your way back from the market,” Duo said a little cautiously. “Yeah,” Hiiro replied in an apologetic tone. “No problem. You want some of that syrup stuff too?” “Kayro,” Duo reminded him. “White. Oh, and some animal crackers for Hiire,” he added. “Maybe I should come with you,” he mused, perking Hiiro’s ears up a little. Duo... alone… in the car…. “Akae’s already outgrown these onesies and it’ll do him good to get some fresh air.” Damn! “Duo,” he sighed, moving over to stand behind him. “Hm?” the braided boy replied, still fussing with the baby’s things. “Duo,” Hiiro breathed again, taking in the delicious scent of the boy’s long hair, gazing at the beautiful color of the skin that peeked out the collar of his shirt. Skin that was just aching to be kissed… “Whaaaa!” “Wufei! Is his bottle ready yet?” Duo called, slipping away once again to go tend to the baby. Hiiro growled low in his throat and snatched his coat as he headed out the door. A quick call to Trowa’s proved fruitless once again as neither he nor his blond lover were home. He didn’t bother with the cell since what he wanted could only be performed in private so he took a lot of his frustrations out on the innocent cans of supplemental formula at the market. By the time he got to Relena’s to collect the breast milk she supplied on a daily basis he was feeling even more frustrated since the cans didn’t moan or cry out his name once! “Relena?” he called, walking into the apartment she’d rented nearby their home. This arrangement gave everyone their privacy but kept her within reach for the first few weeks for things like this. Hiiro had not expected nor did he EVEN need the image implanted in his mind but when he walked into the living room he found Relena and Michael in a rather compromising position. “GEZZUS!” he barked, spinning around and walking right back out. Christ! Even Relena was getting laid and she’d just had a damn baby! Was that possible? Or wise? Shit, he didn’t care anymore. He needed some of his own and by damned he was going to get his point across one way or another. He waited until he knew Duo would be putting Akae down for the night though the child was still only sleeping a few hours at a time before creeping into the nursery and slipping up behind him in an effort to gently sway his mood. “Mmm,” Duo sighed. Promising .,. yes… “Did you get the milk?” “Ut un,” Hiiro replied absently. It felt sooo damn good to hold him, his body so firm and slender, pressing into his chest, that fine little ass right there in front of him. “No?” the longhaired boy inquired, leaning his head over to allow his husband to kiss his neck. Damn, he tasted like fresh morning dew... clean… unspoiled... virgin even... yum. “Ran into a snag,” he explained, pulling his lover’s hips back into his own but Duo pulled away. “Shit, I need that I’m completely out.” “Duo.” “What? Maybe Wufei can...” “DUO!” He stood there in complete silence just staring at him as Hiiro raised his hands and dug them into the sides of his thick, chocolate colored hair. “Sorry,” he ground out between clenched teeth. “What’s wrong?” the braided boy asked, seeming both hurt and concerned. “This,” Hiiro replied, jerking him into his arms and kissing him madly. It took all of two seconds for his hands to start wandering and pulling at his clothes as he moved him steadily back towards the bed but… “Wait,” the longhaired boy breathed, his mouth was steadily asking for a stay of execution but his body was smoldering like a hot coal in Hiiro’s hands. The body won. Hiiro tossed him on the bed and got to work on what was left of his clothes. “Hiiro… really... wait.” “He’s only two weeks old,” Hiiro reasoned, bending to kiss him again. “It’s not like its going to scar him,” he reasoned, moving down his neck. “But I can’t do this here,” Duo said bringing the encounter to a screeching halt. “What is wrong with you anyway?” he asked, curious as to why his husband was so intense. “You’re always with the baby,” Hiiro replied a little more harshly than he’d intended. “He’s a newborn,” Duo retorted, slipping away from him again. Hiiro felt a very real, very sharp pain in his chest the moment he moved away. “What did you expect?” the braided boy asked sternly. There is was again… Why was Duo yelling at him? “Is it so damn hard to put your desires aside for awhile while…” “Shit.” “…he’s so small?! You know, I’ve never known you to behave so selfishly!” “Du..” “It’s not like you don’t have other options! Go see Trowa if your so hard up!” “Whaaaaa!” “Damn it! Now look! I just got him down…HIIRO!” “Sh..shit.” “What’s wrong?!” Duo gasped, already by his side. “Don’t… know,” Hiiro replied, gripping his chest, he couldn’t breath… “Hurts,” was all he could get out. “WUFEI!” Duo screamed, the pure terror lancing through him as his mind conjured up nightmare visions of everything from a coma to a tombstone. “Oh, gods no. FEI! Please… WUFEI!” ** “Stress?” Trowa said, wanting a confirmation. Duo nodded, looking very, very tired as he sat in the hospital’s waiting room where he was trying to explain all the things the doctors had said to him but it was all a big jumbled up mess in his head. All he’d really heard was `he’s going to be ok.` “All this must’ve been pretty hard on him,” Quatre sighed, combing the back of his husband’s hair absently with his fingers. “I hope we didn’t upset him,” Relena added, looking at her angelic companion. “Why would you?” Duo wanted to know. “He caught us… well...” “Making love,” Michael smiled, pulling the blushing girl to his side. Duo looked at them curiously for a moment then nodded. “He seemed a little tense when he got home,” he sighed. “Damn it!” he growled suddenly. “Why didn’t I see?” he grumbled, rubbing his tired eyes. “None of us did,” Trowa reminded him. “You guys haven’t...” Duo paused to consider the company they were in “...gotten together lately have you?” he asked. Trowa shook his head. “Well, that explains a lot,” he sighed again, leaning back. “Would you mind excusing us for a minute?” Wufei asked, his black eyes becoming as clear as the night sky as he spoke. Michael and Relena nodded before they left. “No one’s been with him in the past two weeks?” he asked once they were out of ear shot. Everyone took a moment to look at each other then shake their heads. “And it’s been getting worse and worse ever since Relena’s arrival,” he went on. “Now it’s down to nothing. No wonder he’s stressed out,” he chuckled. “You think it’s because he’s not getting any?” Duo asked. “It’s not like I’ve been getting my share either,” he groused, feeling a little let down by his usually steadfast husband. “You haven’t been making love every day for the past two years,” Wufei reminded him. He opened his mouth to protest but stopped and closed it again looking thoughtful. “You know, it’s you or me or the both of us but it’s hardly ever without Hiiro,” Wufei pointed out. “And when he’s not with us…” “He’s with us,” Trowa supplied. “Everyday?” Quatre mused, seeming astounded. “At least until Relena arrived,” Wufei reminded them. “Still,” the blond replied. “He must’ve thought things would go back to normal after the baby came,” Duo said softly. “And we haven’t even once… and you too… damn. Now I know what all those vitamins are for,” he chuckled wryly. “When can he come home?” Wufei asked. “Tomorrow,” Duo relied. “They want him to stay overnight and rest.” “I think you need to make some time for him when he gets home,” the Chinese boy told him. “But what about Akae?” “Duo,” Quatre reprimanded him gently. “You’re much too wrapped up in the baby right now,” he told him. “Look at what’s happened. We’ll take him for a day or two if you need us to,” he offered, raising his golden brows to stay the longhaired boy’s objections. “He’ll be fine with us,” he told him. “Or don’t you trust us?” he smiled. “Of course I do,” Duo replied, rolling his eyes. “It’s just hard the first time. He’s still so small.” “He’ll be fine,” Wufei assured him. “But I’m not so sure about Hiiro,” he grinned. Duo drove Hiiro home the next day in silence. He really didn’t know how to cheer him up without taking his clothes off so there was little point in idle conversation. He and the others had spent the evening discussing ways that they could help each other lightening the load all the way around so that everyone could go back to a place where they were getting what they needed. First on the list was Hiiro. Duo couldn’t stand the sadness in his eyes so he slipped his hand into his lap where he could grip his fingers. Hiiro smiled a little as if grateful for the effort but it was hardly good enough so at the next red light Duo leaned over for a small kiss. This appeared to perk his husband up quite a bit so he did it again and earned himself a full fledged smile. By the time they pulled into the garage Hiiro was all over him. He couldn’t even get the car into park he was coming on so strong but the damn garage was just not what the longhaired boy had in mind. “Lets go inside,” he gasped, attempting to retain his clothing, or at least the important parts. “No,” Hiiro replied. “Why not?” “Baby’s in there,” Hiiro said, making Duo chuckle out loud. “Actually, he’s not,” he said, putting a stop to the assault as Hiiro pulled back to look at him. “I got a babysitter,” Duo smiled. They were out of the car and zooming through the house towards the bedroom in two seconds flat. “Hiiro! Wait!” Duo laughed, resisting half heartedly but he ground to an immovable halt in the hallway and insisted on at least taking off his coat. His shirt was already undone so no biggy there and Hiiro was busily working on his pants as he backed him against the bedroom door and pushed it open. He was already so deep in the heat coming off his longhaired lover it took him several seconds to realize they weren’t alone, his eyes opening with his lips still pressed to Duo’s as he gazed upon the most beautiful sight he’d ever seen. There in the bed were the remainder of his lovers. Each freshly washed and dressed in some savory outfit. Quatre’s was silk, pastel pinks and blues, a loose fitting tank type top and a frigging skirt! A SKIRT! Hiiro’s mouth went dry just looking at him. Then there was Wufei sitting beside where Quatre was lying sprawled all over the white satin sheets in nothing but his white pajama bottoms. Damn, had he been out in the sun? And Trowa, he’d never in a million years thought of wrapping the boy in a red ribbon like that. It encircled his long neck meandering its way down the muscular arms, around the chest and waist and right down those impossibly long legs. It was really very hard to breathe. “Did you do this?” he asked, still holding Duo in a half dip as he surveyed the heavenly scene. “Quatre picked out the ribbon,” his husband supplied. “Oh, ho ho ho… I do love you,” Hiiro grinned, dragging him over and dropping him on the bed beside Quatre. “I know,” Duo replied, grinning up at him as he began to pull his clothes off. “This is cute,” the Japanese boy smiled, running his hand down Quatre’s hip where the little, silk skirt lay. “Duo likes me in costume,” the blond explained. “I can see why,” Hiiro grinned, watching the boy’s expression change as he ran his fingers up the crack of his ass and bent to kiss Duo’s lips. Trowa gave him a minute to play then reached down and gently but firmly took him by the hair on the back of his head, pulling him back so he could get a kiss too. Duo’s hands were stretching out above his head and slipping beneath the waist band of Wufei’s bottoms, inspiring the Chinese boy to glean a kiss from the longhaired boy. It was like swimming in the most delicious euphoria ever contrived. Everywhere he turned there was a beautiful face that he was hopelessly in love with, a hot body just begging to be touched, a warm entrance or tantalizing mouth to be explored and it was allllllll his! Wufei took some time to get to know Trowa and Quatre better since they’d never actually been together before and found, much like Hiiro had, that Quatre had been implicitly correct when he’d claimed that Trowa could top anyone. It wasn’t that he wasn’t willing or didn’t participate in other activities; it was just that he was soooo damn good at it! They all learned some new things before morning finally came around and everyone was piled up in an exhausted heap like a litter of newborn pups. Hiiro once again grinned to himself, Duo under one arm, Quatre under the other, his head pillowed on Trowa’s shoulder and Wufei snuggled up with his head half in his lap where he’d wrapped himself around Duo’s hips and was busily snoring into his belly button and thought to himself `I am truly the luckiest man alive!` just before another thought entered his mind. “Where’s the baby?” “Relena’s” “What?!” “You know,” Duo sighed groggily, cuddling up a little closer. “I don’t think she’d make such a bad aunt,” he said then smiled and fell silent as Hiiro shook his head and tried to absorb that one into the equation. **
