A/N: Double update because I failed yesterday.

Pairing: Mostly Phoenix/ Trucy but some heavily implied Phoenix/ Maya... by Trucy.

Disclaimer: You know the saying 'you learn something new every day'? You won't be learning anything new in this statement; we all know I don't own this.


New Mommy

"Now Trucy, you know that person I have been going out to meet a lot recently?"

"Yes Daddy."

"Well, she-"

"It's a 'she'! I knew it! Polly I was right! Is she-"

Phoenix sighed and smiled at his ever excitable daughter. She reminded him of her so much.

"You know how it's like with you and Apollo when hang out even when he's working? We used to be like that. Maya and I."

"Maya'? Cool. So... what about her?"

"Well... she wants to meet you." He said slowly and as if he didn't want to say it out loud.

"Daddy you make it sound like meeting me is a bad thing!" Trucy said while pouting and placing her hands on her hips in defiance and anger.

"Considering that I have to have this conversation with you before you meet her signals that it may be a bad idea." He said while laughing but feeling scared all the same. "Look at it this way, the last female that was my age that we bumped into you tried setting us up and asked her about her credit history and any health problems."

"Oh right, gotcha, you want to play it cool? I can do cool." She said while posing in her best 'cool' position.

"Not specifically 'cool', just be you. But try not to ask her any direct questions that she may take the wrong way ok? I know how you get sometimes, so just try for me today please? I think we'll be just fine today." He said, still not sure of himself, and even less sure when he watched his daughter nod gleefully while that spark in her eye grew brighter and more mischievous.

...

The door to the Wright Anything Agency was being knocked only loudly and in her excitement Trucy had leapt past Phoenix and swung the door open before he had the chance.

She took one look at the woman standing in their doorway who was wearing a purple kimono, Steel Samurai earrings, had a bag of take away burgers clutched firmly in her hands and her eyes somehow ignored the sight of the magician and went straight to Phoenix and smiled.

Trucy couldn't help it.

"Are you my new Mommy?"


Man. Feels weird typing 'Mom'.

Cheerio!

Also, I think we all secretly or not so secretly in my case have a 'cool' pose.
