Accidental Marriage - Part 6
Disclaimer: I don't own Gundam Wing. Some very rich people in Japan do. I have no money, but I do own the new original characters.
Sidney looked at them with an expectant look on her face. Angie was turning red, and Quatre had his mouth wide open. Sidney had her hands on her hips. Angie gave Quatre a stricken look. Quatre sighed.
"Hello, Sidney," said Quatre.
"Hello, Quatre. What are you doing here?" asked Sidney again.
"I am staying here for the time being," answered Quatre.
"I can see that. Now, why are you here?" asked Sidney. She was almost the same height as Quatre, so she could almost see eye to eye with him.
"Sidney, we have some thing to tell you," said Angie admitting defeat.
"Angie, I thought you didn't want to say anything," said Quatre looking at her.
"We must as well start with Sidney. Her reaction is what we'll judged others' reactions by," said Angie.
"Fine. Do you want me to say it or do you?" asked Quatre. Angie gave a gesture for Quatre to say something. Sidney was looking at them strangely.
"We're married, and she's pregnant with our son," said Quatre in one breath. Sidney's eyes widened.
"I need to sit down," said Sidney. Quatre guided her to the couch. His blankets were still there. Sidney sat down, and she had to think about the new situation that was just presented to her. She was sitting there quietly for the longest time. Then, she had a smile on her face.
"That's great! Wonderful! I'm so happy for you two," cried Sidney as she got up to give Angie and Quatre hugs. "But, I was wondering about something. When did you get married?"
"Hmm. Angie, I told her, but you didn't say anything about explaining it to her," said Quatre.
"Coward. We got married in Monaco. I'm a little over four weeks along," said Angie.
"Oh. You've been pregnant since Monaco. Don't worry I won't ask anymore uncomfortable questions. Maybe…just one more: Why didn't you two say anything sooner?" asked Sidney.
"Because everything has happened so fast that we haven't had time to adjust. We don't want the press to get a hold of it," answered Quatre.
"Your secret is safe with me. I won't say anything. Not even to Heero," promised Sidney, "So, you're having a boy. Do you have any names picked out yet?" asked Sidney.
"No. We haven't talked about it much," answered Angie.
Quatre left the room for a little bit to change his clothes.
"Why is he sleeping on the couch?" asked Sidney when Quatre left.
"Because we didn't get married under normal circumstances. We don't want to go too fast," answered Angie.
"As if you weren't moving fast," said Sidney with a smirk as she looked down at Angie's middle. Angie couldn't help, but blush at Sidney's comment.
"You can have the old baby names books that Heero and I went through when we were picking out a name for Alex," offered Sidney.
"Thanks," said Angie.
"I didn't notice it before. I should have," murmured Sidney.
"Notice, what?" asked Angie with an inquisitive brow.
"That you and him should have gotten together. That would be something that I could have taken the credit for it. I can tell that you love him very much. You're just being shy about it," observed Sidney.
"I don't know what you're talking about…but, I do have to admit it. I love him," said Angie in a soft voice.
"You do?" asked Quatre from behind. He had just gotten back. Angie looked at him. Sidney smiled. She could tell from the look on his face that he loved her back.
"Yes," said Angie looking straight into his blue eyes. Quatre smiled back. Sidney got up, walked into Angie's home office without a word, and shut the door behind her.
"I didn't think you loved me. I thought that you just wanted me around for the baby," whispered Quatre in a soft voice. That was one of his two fears. Whether or not she loved him, and the fear of impending fatherhood.
"That was an excuse at first. I don't know when I started to feel this way. I know that it's not the pregnancy because it would have fade from the first bout of morning sickness. It's all right you that you don't love me back. I understand," said Angie looking down away from his eyes.
Quatre didn't know what to say. He didn't trust himself to speak. He sat down next to her. Quatre tipped her chin up to his face, and gave her a long passionate kiss. Quatre pulled back a little bit.
"I love you, too. Hey, we got it made," said Quatre with a smile.
"Does it matter if the baby is boy? I know that you need your heir to be a boy," said Angie cautiously.
"Not to me. Maybe, to my family and employees. Listen, it's only my opinion that counts. Yes, I'm happy that it's a boy. But, I don't think it would be a big deal to have a girl. In fact, before Dr. Wong told us, I was all set for girl. This little guy is forcing me to think otherwise. This requires me to make adjustments," said Quatre in a firm voice and a smile.
Angie was next to him, and she rested her head on his shoulder. He placed his hand on her middle. Angie looked up at him with a smile. Sidney knocked on the office door. Angie and Quatre pulled away from each other a little bit.
"Well, I guess we won't be going shopping today. I only suggested it to find out what was wrong with you. Now that I know, I can leave in peace," said Sidney with a smile.
"No. We'll all go shopping. I need to get some maternity clothes. Come on Baby, let's go make a dent in your Daddy's credit cards," said Angie as she got up holding Quatre's hand.
"Great. My family is already making demands," said Quatre with a laugh.
Sidney started laughing. The three of them spent the day together. Sidney said that she wouldn't even say anything to Chris or the other Gundam pilots. If there was anything Sidney knew how to do, it was keeping secrets. Sidney tried to get Quatre to confess about what he was going to do about the wedding bands. Quatre kept his mouth shut, and wouldn't say anything to her. Angie laughed at Sidney's attempts. All three of them had dinner at a simple dinner.
"When are you going to announce it?" asked Sidney, "If I were you I wouldn't wait too long."
"We know. We first want to tell our families first. We've decided to tell Angie's parents first," answered Quatre.
"Good luck with Mr. Hart. You shouldn't have too much trouble with Mrs. Hart," said Sidney.
"Don't scare him like that," said Angie.
"I'm just warning him," said Sidney as she took a sip of coffee.
"What do you think he's going to do to me?" asked Quatre.
"I don't know. But, since you're married to his only child…I would brush up on my combat skills if I were you," said Sidney with a smile.
"That's not funny, Sidney," said Angie.
"Oh, I'm only joking," said Sidney.
After dinner they all went their separate ways. Quatre and Angie got home around ten. It was practically his home now, so it was their home for the time being. Angie suggested that the would be moving to a new place.
Quatre was happy about not staying on the couch anymore. Angie got into the bed first, and Quatre followed her. She was feeling a little shy about this. Quatre gave her a kiss on her lips, and the shyness melted away.
"Good night, love," said Angie as she curled up next to Quatre.
"Good night, Angie," said Quatre as he put his arm around her and pulled her close.
They went to sleep in each other's arms.

Angie was back at work in her lab. She was feeling much better. Quatre said that he had to take care of some more business. Angie was disappointed to see him go, but he promised that he would call her later that evening from his flat in London.
Sandy came in with a dozen red roses. Angie smiled at her, "Who are those for?" she asked.
"They're for you," answered Sandy as she handed the roses to Angie.
Angie's first thought was that they were from Quatre. She was wrong when she looked at the card:
"To Angie,
Let's talk. I miss you.
Love,
Rob"
Angie felt sick to her stomach. She ripped the card in half and handed the roses back to Sandy in disgust. "Take this to one of the patients. At least, it will go to good use somewhere," ordered Angie. Sandy gave her a strange look, but did as she was told.
Angie got back to work without any trouble. She met Sidney for lunch. They had decided to go to a buffet. Sidney knew what it was like to have all sorts of food cravings. Angie was like a kid in a candy store. In fact, after that, they went to a candy store.
* * *
Quatre went to a London bookstore. He bought a copy of an old favorite, "What to Expect, when You're Expecting." He wanted to read more about the his wife's condition. Quatre was no doctor, but he was married to one. Quatre was held up in his office at the Preventers reading the book in between meetings.
Quatre kept the book hidden in his desk. He called Angie later that afternoon because of the time difference. He knew that it would be the evening in Norfolk.
"Hello, Angie," greeted Quatre.
"Hi! How's it going?" asked Angie with genuine concern.
"Everything's fine over here. I'm just going to some briefings. How are you?" asked Quatre.
"Fine. I went to lunch with Sidney today. We got some gummi bears, gummi worms, and some more candy afterwards. I have a pound worth of candy. Don't worry. I don't have any chocolate. Caffeine isn't good for the baby," said Angie with a smile.
"Wonderful. Our son will be born with a sweet tooth," remarked Quatre with a smile.
"I can only hope," said Angie with a laugh.
"Imagine the dentist bills," joked Quatre as he shook his head.
Angie yawned. She was getting more and more tired these days. Quatre looked at her with concern. "I'll let you go. Have a good night's sleep. Sweet Dreams," said Quatre.
"Good night, Love," said Angie as she closed the connection.
Quatre got up to attend another briefing. All the Gundam pilots were present for the meeting. It was boring security stuff. Quatre had his mind on other things. He had gotten a hold of an Arabic jeweler to make the wedding bands. The bands would be done in a fortnight.
"Hey, Quatre. I need to borrow that disk for the security program for my computer. Where is it?" asked Duo.
"It's in my desk. In the right hand drawer," answered Quatre without thinking.
Duo went to Quatre's office. The disk wasn't where Quatre said where it would be. Duo found the book in his desk. 'What's this doing here?' thought Duo. Quatre came back to his office, and found Duo with the book in his hands. Quatre froze at the door, and he quickly shut it behind him.
"Why do you have this book, Quatre?" asked Duo.
Author's Note: Relena is still being called Sidney. I didn't want to waste time. Quatre and Angela love each other. Sidney has caught them, but I don't expect anything from her except her being happy for them. Duo just caught Quatre. Will Robert cause them trouble?
