********** Chapter 8 **********

Everything for the party was finally set; the backyard was set; the food was made and being put into place.

Now everyone was getting ready themselves.

They all took a shower and now were changing into clean clothes.

Nothing fancy; they wore t-shirts, jeans, sneakers; everyday clothing. Later on Wufei was going to wear something special.

Once they were all ready; the doorbell rang.

Trieze rushed to go get it; the person at the door, his sister-in-law, Relena.

"Hey Trieze, how are you doing?!" Relena said as she hugged Trieze.

"I'm doing fine." He said as he hugged back.

"Relena!" Zechs said as he walked up to his sister.

"Zechs!" Relena said as she rushed over to him.

They hugged and Relena started asking a whole bunch of questions about the baby.

Once Relena and Zechs entered the living room; Relena noticed the newcomer.

"Hello guys." Relena said. "And who might you be?"

Trowa stood up and offered his hand for a handshake.

"I'm Trowa Barton." Trowa said. "Nice to meet you, Relena."

"Nice to meet you too." Relena said as she shook his hand.

"Well, Relena take a seat." Zechs said as he sat down.

Relena sat down along with everyone; until another yowl from one of the kittens came.

"Not again..." Zechs and Trowa said as they rushed towards the sound.

Everyone else followed.

Yet again, the runt had his teeth latched onto a kitten's tail.

This time, it was the black one.

The color of the kittens are, white, black and white, black, orange, orange and black and white, and grey.

The runt is the black and white spotted one.

"I wonder what caused this to happen." Trieze said as he unlatched the runt's teeth from the cat's tail.

"That's the second time today." Trowa said.

"When did you people get cats?" Relena asked.

No one answered.

The doorbell rang.

Heero went to go get it.

Once he got to the door...

"Tiger, J.J., what are you two doing here?!!!" Heero hissed.

Trowa and Wufei came to the door too; Trowa nearly fainted when he saw the two.

"We came to tell Trowa; that Quatre and Jason are together." J.J. said.

Trowa rushed outside with Heero and Wufei; closing the door behind them.

"How do you know?!" Trowa hissed.

"Jason called from Quatre's house saying he and Quatre wouldn't be coming back so soon." J.J. said. "Jason's delirious voice told us the answer."

"Delirious...?" Trowa asked.

"Yeah, that voice you get when you just got out of a serious make-out session." Tiger said.

"Oh..." Trowa said. "What about Scar?"

"Quatre said that he's going to help." J.J. said.

"Now that he's with Jason; you don't have to worry about him much." Tiger said.

The door opened and Trieze came out.

"Hello guys." He said. "You two must be Tiger and J.J." Eyeing the two visitors.

They both nodded.

Trieze closed the door.

"If you two cause any trouble for any of us; I swear, I'll kill you two." Trieze hissed. "Understand?!"

Both Tiger and J.J. jumped up; but nodded.

With that; Trieze went back into the house.

"What's his problem?" J.J. asked.

"Well, you two are apart of a gang that can seriously hurt us." Wufei began.

"You guys are friends to the person who caused Trowa a whole lot of pain." Heero said.

"And he has a pregnant lover." Trowa finished.

"Oh..." Tiger said.

J.J. said nothing.

"We have to go now." Tiger said. "See you later."

Tiger grabbed J.J.'s hand, got into their car, and drove off.

"What time is it?" Trowa asked.

Heero looked at his watch.

"5:30, why?" Heero asked.

"If I were still with Quatre; he'd be beating me right now." Trowa said.

Heero held Trowa's hand and gave it a squeeze; Trowa squeezed back.

With that; everyone went back into the house.

**********

"Hmmm... are you awake Quatre?" Jason mumbled as he rolled over in bed.

"Yeah..." Quatre mumbled.

Jason and Quatre just had a little 'get together' in bed in celebration of their new found love.

They were both tired; but really happy.

"I know this will seem annoying..." Jason said. "But what will we do about Scar?"

"I don't know." Quatre said sitting up. "I've never had to deal with him for going after Trowa before."

"Quatre?" Jason asked.

"Hmmm..." Quatre said.

"When you were with Trowa; why did you beat him?" Jason asked.

"I don't know..." Quatre said.

"What do you mean; you don't know." Jason said sitting up.

"I just don't really know..." Quatre said. "I just right now feel awful about it."

"Are you going to apologize?" Jason asked.

"I think..." Quatre mumbled.

"You should." Jason said.

With that Jason grabbed Quatre into another kiss.

**********

Right now; the house had about twenty people.

Trowa only knew Relena; and the only kids at the party, Justin, Kelly, and Jamey; they are triplets at the age of five.

"Hello, you must be Trowa." A man said as he held out his hand. "My name is Max."

Trowa shook the hand.

"It's nice to meet you Max." Trowa said.

Just then the triplets came and nearly tripped Trowa as they ran to Max.

"Daddy, Heero won't let us have any cake!!!" Kelly yelled.

"We want cake!!!" Justin and Jamey screamed.

Trowa saw that Max was the father of the three and needed help.

"The cake is for Duo, you three." Trowa said as he bent down. "You see those candles on the cake?" He said as he pointed to it.

"Yes..." The triplets said.

"Do you know what they are for?" Trowa asked.

The triplets wagged their heads no.

Trowa looked at them as if they were from another planet for a second.

"When those candles are lit up; Duo has to blow them out." Trowa said. "Then we can eat it."

"But when will Duo get here?!" Kelly whined.

"Soon, he'll be here soon." Trowa said.

With that; the triplets went to go play with the kittens.

"Your kids don't know what the candles on the cake are for?" Trowa asked.

"Wife has fire issues." Max said.

Trowa dismissed it and went to look for Wufei; he found Wufei in the backyard.

He went up to him.

"You okay Wufei?" Trowa asked.

"Yeah........." Wufei said. "Just a bit nervous."

"Well, don't be..." Another voice said.

Trowa and Wufei saw Trieze.

"And why shouldn't I be?" Wufei asked.

"Because, Duo will say yes." Trieze said. "Everyone knows it."

"But what if he doesn't?" Wufei asked.

"If he doesn't; keep asking him until you drive him crazy." Trowa said. "Then he'll say yes; or, put you in an insane asylum."

Trieze broke into laughter; Wufei smirked.

"Hey guys we all have to take out places; Duo and Sally are here." Relena said.

Everyone was coming out of the house and running into the yard.

**********

"We're here Duo." Sally said as she pulled up.

"About time..." Duo mumbled.

He and Sally had been out all day. They've been to amusement parks, movies, here, there, everywhere. Duo now was very hungry and very tired. Sally knew that once Duo saw the party; he'd have all the energy to party all night long.

Both of them jumped out of the care and headed for the house.

Duo thought everyone forgot about his birthday; but was happy that he went to so many places.

"Guys, I'm home!" Duo yelled as he opened the door.

No one called back.

"Guys?" Duo called. "Where is everyone?" He said as he went into the living room.

'They totally forgot!!!' Duo's mind wailed.

"Maybe we should check the backyard." Sally said as she headed for the back.

Duo followed with his head hung low.

Once Sally entered the back; she mouthed; 'He's coming'; then rushed into place.

Duo entered the backyard and...
