Walking down the steps she found her father in the kitchen. He was busy making something, so she quietly stood beside him.
"Daddy what are you doing?" Mariemaia asked him as she watched him. "I'm making your mother a special breakfast." Duo said placing a single red rose on the tray. "Why?" Mariemaia asked, confused why her father was doing that. "Because I love your mother very much." Duo said, "Now, you better do all of your chores before you leave for Aunty Relena's." "Ok, Daddy!" the young girl said, leaving the kitchen to do all of her chores. While Duo quietly walked up the stairs with the tray to their bedroom, he didn't want to wake his wife up anytime soon until he got there. - - - - - - - In Duo's and Neptune's Bedroom Duo carefully walked into the bedroom, he saw that his wife was still asleep in bed. Walking to the side of the bed he placed the tray down on the table next to the bed. He didn't want to wake her up yet; she needed the rest of being so busy yesterday.
Neptune didn't want to wake up, but she did anyway finding Duo sitting on the bed beside her. She smiled when she looked at him, no matter how many years went by after the last almost breaking out war her husband still kept his hair in a braid. Countless times she thought of the past when they first met each other, remembering that time was pretty funny for that was the first time she ever felt in love.
"Good Morning sweetie." Neptune spoke, catching him off guard. "Ack.you scared me hun." Duo said, making his heartbeat slow down. She just giggled at him from lying down in bed. "Really, you the almighty Great Warrior got scared." Neptune said to him giggling in between her words. "Did I ever tell you look simply stunning when you laugh my love?" Duo asked looking down at her from leaning on the pillows behind him. Neptune shook her head when she heard his question. She knew quite well that phrase was the same one used when they were on their first date.
Just then the phone rang, Neptune picked up the phone that was on the nightstand next to the bed. She recognized the speaker as her sister, Relena; they started talking about the plans for today.
"Shucks..ruin my fun." Duo said sighing when his wife started talking on the phone. He slumped into his pillows, knowing his wife and sister-in- law their talk would bound to be a long one.
"Um, Relena, I need to go some one needs my very full attention." She told her sister over the phone. "Let me guess..it's Duo.isn't it?" Relena said to her sister with a giggle. Relena received a chuckle from her sister over the phone. "Very much yes.dear sister.feeling neglected and unwanted." She told her, slightly giggling. She looked over her shoulder, seeing that Duo slumped into his pillows feeling quite neglected from her. Shaking her head she hung up the phone when Relena told her she'd call later on.
"Aw.dose my great warrior husband feel neglected from his wife?" She asked him in an innocent tone, and looking sheepishly at him. "Um." He stared to say, but Duo couldn't resist those shinning blue- eyes that showed his refection in them, "Yea.some what neglected.I wanted to spend some time with my one and only woman today." "Really, you could have told me earlier." She told him slowly getting out of bed, walking to their bathroom. He watched her as she walked to their bathroom in her royal blue silk nightgown flowing behind her as she walked.
"Duo.you do know that today were suppose to be setting the house up for Christmas right?" She asked him from the bathroom, brushing her hair. "Oh.yes.dear I remember don't worry." He told her watching her reflection in the mirror as she brushed her hair. "That's good honey.as long as you remember." She smiled, setting her brush down on the bathroom sink counter. "I'm going to go and check on Mariemaia." He told her from their bedroom doorway. "Okay." She called out from their closet. Duo left the bedroom smiling, he knew his wife all too well by now. - - - - - - - - - - - In Mariemaia's Bedroom, down the hallway Mariemaia was busy cleaning her room, putting her toys away and making her bed. She smiled when she found a picture of Neptune, Lady Une, and Duo; it was the only picture that reminded her of her first Christmas as a normal girl. She didn't notice Duo, leaning on the doorframe of her room, until she heard a snicker. "Busy cleaning?" He asked her from the bedroom doorway. Duo grinned as he watched his daughter clean her room, making it all nice and tidy. "Yup.you got that right Dad!" Mariemaia said cheerfully walking to her desk sorting out loose papers that she found on her bedroom floor. "Don't forget that you have to make sure your room and closet is clean before you go over to Aunty Relena's house." Duo told her, making sure she understood him perfectly. Mariemaia nodded a yes to show that she understood what her father told her she had to do. He left her to go back finishing cleaning her room, walking back down the hallway back to were he left Neptune earlier.
- - - - - - - - - Back At Duo's and Neptune's Bedroom Neptune was busy making their bed when she heard him walk into the room. Duo saw that she wore a bluish-green shirt and a long black skirt while her hair was braided in to two buns on the side of her head.
"Your back.early." She stated as she fluffed the pillows on both sides of the bed. "You didn't want me to come back?" He asked her kind of hurt by the remark she made earlier. "I didn't say that.you thought I would say that." She told him turning to look at him with her sweetest smile. Duo just stared at his wife, who was just driving him crazy with her smile. He could never shake off the feeling when ever she smiled ever so cute or sweetly at him. It just drove him crazy, yet he knew that he must be the luckiest guy in the universe to have a woman like her.
"Well, I must get downstairs and start cleaning the dining room." She said brushing past him. Neptune was quite amused when she saw him just staring at her, which was one of the things that some times amuses her so much.
- - - - - - - - - At Relena's House "Heero.can you come here for just a little while?" a woman called out from her office. "What's a matter Relena?" Heero asked from leaning against the doorway of Relena's office room. "You have a call from Preventer Wind." she told him looking into his cobalt blue eyes. "Okay.Thanks Relena." He told her walking to the workout room, two doors down from her office room. Heero knew that the so-called person named Preventer Wind was none other than Zechs. Relena's and Neptune's older brother, though they did not know that Zechs was now named Preventer Wind.
Heero picked up the phone, "This is Heero.proceed." There was slight snicker on the other side of the phone when Heero spoke, "Well..it's been a while Yuy." Zechs said on the other side. "What is it now Wind?" Heero asked him seriously. "Some thing doesn't seem right.I feel as if something will happen to my sister." Zechs said seriously yet worried for his sister. "You mean.Neptune don't you." "Yes.I have this bad feeling something will happen." "I am thinking that Duo might have something about this as well." "I think you are right.you better ask him as soon as possible." Zechs finally said, still thinking about his two sisters. "I will.keep in contact, but not so sudden." Heero said grimly, he started to have a feeling that Duo might have information about this. "Do not worry.just keep an eye out for both of them." Zechs said and hung the phone up. Then Heero hung up the phone, he sat down on a nearby chair next to the window and started thinking. 'Zechs is right.Neptune seemed kind of distant last night.' He thought, 'Duo also seemed kind of out of it as well, some thing is up.' Heero looked out the window, he saw across the street Quatre busy shoveling snow off of his own driveway. He wondered if he should tell all of the Gundam pilots about this situation. 'Hm.I better not.tell them yet.' He confirmed with himself, walking away from the window and started to work out. (AN: Please try to have an open mind about Heero working out.) - - - - - - - - - Back at the Maxwell Household "Duo.stop eating the frosting." Neptune said to him, "Or else I won't have enough frosting to put on the cake." "But it's just so yummy." Duo protested and started to pout. "I know it's delicious, but I need it for the cake." She stated and whacked his had with a wooden spoon since he was about to eat some more of her frosting. "Ouch." Duo said rubbing his hand that she hit. "Ha, that's what you get for trying to eat some more." She grinned at him shaking the spoon in her hand.
Duo just shook his head at his wife, he knew better than to try another attempt. Even though he wanted to have a little bit more, she wouldn't give him any chances to try. Neptune started to make more cake frosting, since Duo ate what little frosting she had left from her cookie batch.
"Duo.you haven't been yourself lately." She said mixing the frosting, "Are you feeling alright?" "I'm feeling just fine so don't worry to much." He told her kissing her neck up and down. Neptune giggled at what he was doing to her, she couldn't stand the kissing going up and down her neck it was just too much. "Duo.p-please.s-stop it." She shivered from all the kisses, and lightly gasped when she felt his tongue, lingering, on her neck when he left trails of kisses on her neck. "But.I want to have some fun dear." He mumbled, "Your usually busy.like almost every single day." "Duo.what if Mariemaia comes down stairs, then what are you going to do?" She said in a low whisper trying not to give into the kisses on her neck. "Good point dear." Duo stopped and sighed disappointed about what she said to him. She sighed feeling guilty herself, for the fact that she was enjoying the seduction from her husband. He too felt that way but they never showed it like she did when they parted.
"Mommy, I'm ready to go to Aunty Relena's house!" Mariemaia said from the front door. Not knowing what her parents were up to earlier while she was busy up stairs.
Neptune looked at Duo and sighed, "Okay honey just let me finish up here."
She put the last batch of cookies into the oven, looking at Duo she saw that he also felt the same way she did. Washing her hands and wiping them on her apron, Duo helped her undo the ties in the back of the apron. Both of them walked out of the kitchen and towards the front door where Mariemaia was waiting.
"Mariemaia are you ready?" Neptune asked her as Duo put a jacket on her. "I'm ready mommy!" Mariemaia said cheerfully. "Okay lets go then." She said opening the front door, turning to look at Duo "Make sure the cookies are okay.don't eat them." "Yes.dear." Duo said smiling to her as she closed the door.
