New Life by: Lady of the Shinobi

Hotaru grinned at her image in the mirror. Her hair already reached her waist, and she kept it in two braids. She placed her hand on her growing

stomach where she was holding their child. Hotaru no longer kept in contact with the other scouts. She just disappeared to another dimension,

where she was now quite happy, thank you. They probably figured she was dead or that she had run away. In a way she had. There was no time

keeper in this dimension, so the scouts had no way of getting a hold of her. Hotaru knew that she would always remember the dance where he had

first kissed her.

She felt a hand put on her shoulder, and she turned around to look at her husband. "Are you sure you're fine?" He asked Hotaru, kissing her on

the forehead.

"I'm not an invalid, Heero," Hotaru stated, crossing her arms, annoyed.

"I know, Firefly." Heero stated, taking her arm, "Let's go."

Hotaru giggled. Ever since they'd been with each other, they smiled more and even laughed. When we came home from one of our dates smiling,

Duo had to prove that it was Heero. Of course, when Heero took out his gun and told him he was going to kill him, that proved it enough.

"Look! It's the happy couple!" Catherine laughed, running over to greet them, with Wufei next to her.

Wufei and Catherine had just started dating, and everyone knew they were right for each other. They both had a major temper, major attitude, and

a love of all things sharp. Duo ran over to greet the two people he called 'Mr. and Mrs. Perfect Soldier'. Of course Heero wasn't really a perfect

soldier anymore. The war had been over for two years and everyone was changed. Milliardo Peacecraft had married Lucrezia Noin, while Duo

was engaged to Hilde. Dorothy and Quatre had gotten married about two weeks ago. Trowa was reunited with Middie Une and were going out. It

was very amusing how things turned out. Of course, every once in a while, Hotaru missed the scouts, but that was becoming more and more rare

every day.

Soon everyone turned back to dancing, while Hotaru took a seat at a table with Duo, Heero, and Hilde. Hilde had been in a car wreak, so she

had a broken leg. Therefore, Hilde couldn't dance. Hotaru couldn't dance, after all, she was five months pregnant.

"Hotaru?" Hilde asked. When Hotaru looked up at her she continued, "How about tomorrow you, me, Dorothy, Middie, Lucrezia, Sally, and of

course Heero go baby shopping?"

"Sure," Hotaru agreed. They had recently discovered that the baby was a girl, and of course her and Heero couldn't decide on a name. She had

noticed that all her friends were planning something behind her back. Hotaru and Hilde began to decide on what to get for the baby and what

stores to go to.

Soon the party was over and Hotaru and Heero retired to their room. "Goodnight Heero. I can't wait to go shopping tommorrow."

"Goodnight little firefly."

Lady of the Shinobi: Done! Hope you like. Review!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
