Chapter 1 Baby Makes Three
A/N Heya, I put the sequel back. The plot's different from the first sequel, so be sure not to get confused. Though if you are, feel free to email me, just put your name there so I know who you are. By the way, ignore Mr. Jack, the anonymous reviewer in "Teen Life", I think I've had just about enough of that guy. He's annoying and a bit of a smart-alec, I know, but just leave him alone.

"Dearka, would you be dear, and fetch some towels instead of just standing there?" said Lacus, grinning gently at the tanned skinned, blonde-haired co-ordinator, who just remained standing beside his wife, looking at stoned as ever.
"Oh for goodness sake! I'll get those pieces of cloth, people call towels!" exclaimed Kyo, trudging across the room, and stepping over the bucket of warm water by the doorway.
"Dearka Elthman! You are HOPELESS! AAAAAAAAAH! OW!" yelled Miriallia, clutching onto her husbands left hand, and squeezing all the blood out of it as she pushed with all her might.
Dearka just stood speechless by the bed Miriallia was lying on, staring blankly at the wall in front of him, not wanting to look downwards.
"Dearka Elthman, I don't know what your freakin' problem may be, but don't you think you should encourage Mirre, and give her some moral support?" asked Cagalli, folding her arms across her bosom, and tapping her foot as she waited for an answer from the father-to-be.
"What's his problem?" asked Kyo, arriving back at the scene, two towels in hand, one larger than the other.
"He can't stand the sight of blood, or at least, that's what I assume his problem is." replied Lacus, urging Miriallia on, and wiping the sweat from the auburn-haired girl's forehead.
"Aw come on, it's not that bloody? You've fought in the war, haven't you? So quit being such a nitwit and look down! It's your flesh and blood that Mirre's going to bring into this world!" said Kyo, waving her hand in front of the blonde co-ordintor's face, but nevertheless, it didn't affect him one bit.
"Almost there, Mirre! Come on, you can do it!" encouraged Cagalli, "Even if that useless man of yours can't or won't even say anything to cheer you on," the blonde girl added, her tone changing.
The cries of a baby echoed against the walls of the bedroom, as Miriallia fell backward onto the bed panting and breathing hard, as Lacus washed the baby clean. "Congratulations, Mr. and Mrs. Elthman, it's a girl." said Lacus, trying to soudn like a real doctor.
"Is everything over?" squeaked Dearka, not taking his gaze away from the concrete wall before him.
"Yes, you asshole, if I knew you were so useless, I would've married Ssigh Argyle instead." retorted Miriallia, though she knew she didn't really mean it.
Dearka turned to his wife, pouting and looking a little offended. However, the tanned skinned co-rodinator's expression changed when his gaze fell upon the baby girl that lay in Miriallia's arms.
"Wow," Dearka said, bending down to get a closer look at the little bundle of joy in Miriallia's arms.
"I've just given birth, and all you can say is "Wow"?" hissed Miriallia curtly, glaring at her husband who immediately kissed her on the spot.
"Alright, I am useless, I'm such a wimp and a nitwit, ok? And thank you, honey," said Dearka, nuzzling Miriallia on the head, forcing her to lean sideways a little.
"Congratulations, Dearka and Miriallia," greeted Kira, walking into the bedroom and putting an arm around Lacus's shoulders.
Athrun and Yzak followed behind after Kira, congratulating the proud parents of a baby girl.
"Hang on, if we're all down here, where're are the juniors?" asked Cagalli nervously, turning to the three other young men who just smiled.
"Hey, we may be guys, but it doesn't mean we don't have the cow sense to make them fall asleep and leave them in their cots." replied Athrun knowingly, wrapping his arm tightly around Cagalli and pulling her in close to him.
"Ok, why don't we all go out, while we let father, mother and baby bond?" suggested Lacus, quietly leading the rest out of the bedroom.
The other three pairs of parents, settled into armchairs and on the couch, plannind to take a breather from all that baby-business but just as their bums touched the cushioning of the couch and chairs, loud wails erupted from the floor above them.
"Oh man, it's your turn to go up there and tend to that rascal," said Yzak, nudging Kyo gently with his elbow.
"Is that how you acknowledge your daughter? By calling her a rascal? She's just active," contradicted Kyo, turning to face Yzak and pursing her lips.
"More like hyperactive," muttered Yzak under his breath, the moment his wife had disappeared up the colosssal mahoghany stairway.
"Aw, what's wrong, boy?" asked Cagalli, picking her 10 month old son, who was on his way to learning how to stand on his own, without any support.
Aaron just wailed even more, before nestling into the comfort of his mother's warm and reassuring arms.
Meanwhile, Akira was the total opposite of Aaron. Quiet as can be, and lying in his cot, staring wide-eyed up at Lacus, who was entertaining the little one with a few soft toys.
Ezann, you could say, was the most active and violent one among the trio. The little redheaded baby girl who had aquired most of her mother's traits, accept that she had her father's eye and skin colour, was flailing her arms and legs about attempting to rip the bedsheet.
Kyo just sighed, and picked her brawling daughter up, before letting the little baby girl suckle from her breast.
"You are going to be a tough one when you reach adolescence," said Kyo, tapping Ezann's nose lightly, as she suckled contentedly.
"I disagree, with Yzak for a father, she'll be as disciplined as a soldier. You know how that guy reacts to rebellion, he'll blow his top!" said Cagalli, emphasising on her description of Yzak.
"That's what you think, but I see him from a different point of view," said Kyo, smiling to herself, as she though of the handsome platinum blonde guy.
"I'm sure you know him better than all of us do, he's your husband, and the father of Ezann. You probably love him more than your life is worth." added Lacus, joining in the coversation, as she gently rocked Akira to sleep.
"He's got a very tough and aggressive exterior, but he's got a soft spot on the inside, and he can be ever so gentle." said Kyo knowingly, stroking Ezann's head gently.
"Yeah, he has a soft spot that you and only you, can reach." said Cagalli, letting Aaron hold her index fingers and practise his walking skills on the floor.
"Yzak's not that bad, you know?" remarked Lacus, looking up at her blonde friend, who seemed surprised to hear such a statement from the pink-headed girl.
"Yeah, Lacus is right, he's aggressive, yes, but he's got a strong will to protect those who are close to him. However, one negative point about him is that, he can get a bit arrogant at times." agreed Kyo, stating the Yzak she saw from within her.
"Of course you'd agree, Yzak's..." but before Cagalli could finish her statement, she was interrupted by none other than Yzak himself.
"What about me?" snarled Yzak sarcastically, eyeing the blonde girl closely, for a hint or any sign of guilt.
"Oh, I was just telling them how good a person you can be rather than being all fierce and tough all the time." said Kyo, passing Ezann to Yzak, to hold, while she kissed him pasionately on the cheek.
"Aw, that's so sweet," commented Dearka, coming into the the large bedroom, which Athrun, Kira, Yzak and Dearka had contructed into a baby nursery.
"Yeah, unlike you," said Athrun, teasing Dearka about the little sticky situation that had happened while Miriallia was in labour.
"Shut up, I already admitted my faults and wrong doings, what more do you want from me?" asked Dearka sternly, folding his arms across his brawny chest.
"Well, let's just say, I'll help you bond with your daughter," replied Athrun, scratchig his chin, and coming up with a bright idea.
A/N Ok, hope you people enjoyed the chapter! It's a little short, I know, but I promise the rest of the chapters will be longer. So, what will Athrun make Dearka do? Will it be bad or good? Find out in the next chappie!
