Warnings: Weird? OOC? Hinted shounen-ai. very big grin

Pairings: 12, 4xOC, OCOC

Disclaimers: I don't own the Gundam Wing characters, unfortunately, and I fully intend to return the boys to Bandai or whoever in almost perfect shape. But I do own Sukie Taki. Erishi Wakatsuki owns herself. Annabelle Atalante owns herself also. I co-own Rufus with my best friend. Sukie is based off of myself, Erishi is based off of my best friend, and Annabelle is based off of another one of my friends. Bandai or whoever owns Gundam Wing had no part in this fanfic. No money's being made from this. Seeing that I'm only a meager high school student, I don't think I'd have anything you want anyways. I don't wanna go to court, so please spare me the embarrassment of having to explain to the court that I warned you that didn't I own the characters, and you still sued me anyway. Flames are always welcomed as I could use the laughs.

Author's Note: This is a sequel to The Final Decision. And the G-boys, Sukie, and Erishi are all about 20 years old. Annabelle is 17. This story is about a year after The Final Decision. It's December at the beginning. Oh yeah, and parts of this story, will be extremely silly. Point in case: All of Chapter 7. sweatdrop My best friend kind of co-wrote it with me. She helped me with parts. Rufus was all her idea. If you have any suggestions on where I should have a chapter break, other than where I have one, please feel free to tell me!

Chapter 1

(Normal POV)

Sukie slowly and groggily woke up. When she opened her eyes, she had to shut them quickly because the sunlight hurt them too much. Slowly, she opened her eyes again. This time she was able to. She turned her head and looked over at the love of her life, who was lying right beside her. She smiled at the sight of her platinum-blonde haired lover. She looked at the scar over his right eye. Looking at it, she thought of the day that she had fought him. She had also left OZ that day. She closed her eyes. Sukie still felt very bad about that day. Quatre had told her it would be 'a new beginning'. She certainly hoped so. Her right hand absentmindedly went up to her cheek, where it traced her X-shaped scar. She didn't know why she hadn't gotten it removed through surgery. Maybe it was her rebellious nature showing through, just proving that she wasn't scared of OZ. She opened her eyes again, and Quatre was propped up on his elbow staring at her, a small smile on his face.

"Thinking about that day again?" he asked. She nodded. "You know it's not your fault. There was no way you could have known."

"I know. I just feel so bad about it. I mean, if I had just not let my rage take over, I might have prevented it." She replied.

"No, you couldn't have. There was no way you would've known that it was me you were fighting." He said, and took her hand off of her cheek and held it in his own. "Ok? We can just forget about it, ok?"

"Ok." Sukie replied. All of a sudden, a knock at their bedroom door interrupted any thoughts that they had at that moment.

"Hey, are you two up? Breakfast's ready! I cooked!" The distinct voice of a certain braided American came through the door.

"All right, all right. We're coming!" Quatre called.

"Duo cooked? I better make sure it's edible before I eat it." Sukie said with a laugh. Quatre laughed, and got out of bed and got dressed. Sukie did the same. Then they went down the stairs, arm in arm. When they got down to the kitchen, Heero was poking at his food. It looked like he was trying to make sure it wasn't alive. Sukie giggled behind her hand, and Heero glared at her. He still didn't trust her very well. He thought that she might be still communicating with OZ. Duo motioned to two chairs and put two bowls full of 'food' on the table. Neither Quatre nor Sukie knew what it was. Just as Sukie was starting to prod at her 'food' with her fork, Erishi Wakatsuki sleepily tramped into the kitchen. After Sukie had left OZ, Erishi had followed her. Now Erishi lived with them. She had openly declared that she was now neutral. Heero had said at one point that she was still a soldier for OZ; he had gotten a black eye for it. Nobody questioned her anymore. She grabbed her morning glass of orange juice and looked at the 'food' that Duo had set down in front of her.

"Did you make this?" she asked Duo, pointing at it. He nodded. She pushed it away, and then looked at her orange juice. "Did you make the orange juice?"

"No, it came out of a jug." Duo replied.

"Ok, good." She said, and took a large gulp of it.

"Well good morning to you too Erishi." Sukie said jokingly.

"Good morning." She replied.

Sukie pushed away her bowl, as did Quatre. Sukie stood up, stretched, and yawned. She went into the living room, where Quatre followed her. He came up behind her, put his arms around her waist, and rested his head on her shoulder. Sukie rested her head on his. They stood there in that position for about a minute, and then Sukie pulled away.

"Hey, let's go on a walk, ok?" she said.

"Ok." Quatre replied. They both got their coats, gloves, hats, and scarves and put them on. "Hey guys! We're going on a walk." Quatre called out, and took Sukie's hand. They walked out the door and turned left. Sukie looked at Quatre and smiled. He felt like he had just been washed with the brightest and warmest sunshine. Her smile always cheered him up; even when he was the most depressed. He smiled back at her.
