Note: Hey everyone! This is my new story! (Don't worry for those who have read myother story, I'm not stopping that one.) Anyways…this was originally supposed to be a one-shot but I decided to make it a short story. Please read and review. O yeah…it takes place after Destiny and everyone gets along! Enjoy…

Disclaimer: I don't own Gundam Seed/Destiny.

Rey Za Barrel, a former top pilot on the Minerva and one who helped ended the war, felt like running out of his house screaming. There was a simple reason for his sudden feeling of desperation. That reason being that his steady girlfriend for about four years, also a former top pilot, Lunamaria Hawke had just informed him that she willingly volunteered them to baby sit.

Oh joy…

Now, there's something you must know about Rey. That something is that he is horrible with children. If you stuck that guy in a preschool, he'd be scared for his life. Let's just say poor Rey hasn't had many experiences dealing with the younger generation due to his focus on military training. Anyways…back to present time…

The war had been over for about 7 years now and Rey had gotten to know those who helped stop it. There was always his old roommate, Shinn, who had married the now mentally stable Stellar in a beautiful, yet small wedding by the ocean two years ago. Their darling daughter, as Luna had said it, was only one years old with her fathers black hair and her mother's magenta eyes. Rey grimaced. This was the first reason for his torture.

Moving on…Kira Yamato and Lacus Clyne had been married for six years now and couldn't be happier. Kira was out of his depression and Lacus was picking up singing again. But being a mother came first for the pink-haired idol. She and Kira had a four year old daughter, and a three year old son. They were also expecting another within the year. At least that saves me from one more child to deal with…at the moment at least…

Finally, there was Athrun Zala and Cagalli Yula Athha- the true fairy tale story. The two had married to keep good relations with Orb and the PLANTs but everyone knew how much the two loved each other. They had married immediately after the war and this helped to build confidence for peace. Rey had never seen Athrun so happy and was genuinely happy for the seemingly perfect couple. The only problem was that they had three kids- two boys who were twins and six years old, along with a five year old daughter. Sure, the kids were cute, but Rey wondered how Athrun and Cagalli could handle them. It must be harder than fighting Auel's Gundam underwater in a Zaku equipped with nothing but an ax…

Rey was shaken out of his thoughts when he felt a small hand rest on his shoulder. He looked up to see Lunamaria staring at him cheerfully.

"Isn't this great! We'll have so much fun tonight! Don't you just love children!" She smiled happily and started humming.

Rey almost snorted. Speak for yourself.

Meyrin walked into the living room where they sat, dressed up to go out for the evening. The whole group, minus an excited Luna and dejected looking Rey, had decided to attend a party held in honor of Cagalli and Athrun's excellent leadership. They had asked Luna and Rey to go along and hire a nanny (which Rey was all up for), but, much to his disbelief, his hyper girlfriend had jumped to the chance of babysitting saying that she "loved to have the little angels over." She had also insisted that they come over to Rey's house since his was more spacious and good for playing games. Rey paled at the thought of this and wanted to cover all his precious things with bubble-wrap. Too bad Meyrin had caught on and being the evil friend that she was, made note to stomp on all the bubbled rendering them useless. Life was just sad…

"I wish you two could come…the party sounds fun." Meyrin said as she put her earrings on.

Luna just smiled at her sister. "It's ok, Mey. I really want to spend time with those adorable kids! I can't wait to see them! I know they love their Auntie Luna and Uncle Rey." She playfully elbowed Rey in the gut. He just sat there stiffly, waiting for his doom to come.

"You ok there Rey? You look a bit pale. Did you accidentally eat some of Cagalli's cooking the other day? I thought I told Athrun to throw that stuff out when she wasn't looking…" Luna said with a concerned look on her face. She felt his forehead to see if it was hot.

Meyrin just laughed. "I think he's ok. He just is scared to be Uncle Rey for the night."

Rey sent a glare at the younger girl who just shrugged it off and smiled sweetly, her pig tails adding to her innocent look.

Rey was about to retort but the doorbell rang and all thoughts of speech flew out of his mind. Oh dear God…they're here…

Luna screamed in delight and practically ran to the door. She threw it open and a wide smile made its way to her face.

"Hi everyone!"

Everyone filed in with their kids exchanging greetings and hugs.

"How are you all!"

"It's too bad you two couldn't come…"

"Say hi to Uncle Rey, Auntie Luna, and Auntie Meyrin…"

"Daddy…I want ice cream!"

"Don't leave me mommy…"

Rey really wanted to make a run for it. It was so loud that he couldn't stand the noise. He actually tried to stand up and dash up the stairs, but Luna's strong grip on his arm held him in place.

"Everyone please sit a bit! You don't have to leave right away."

"We can't thank you enough for this." Lacus said while her daughter, Anna, sat on her lap while hugging her mom around the neck. She was the shy and gentle one of the children, much like her parents. Her pink hair and lavender eyes gave her a good balance of both her parent's looks.

"Yeah…We don't want to bother you." Kira added. His son, Daniel, was trying to reach for the candy dish which Luna had set out earlier, but his father had a firm hold on his hand. It was a lost cause.

"There's no problem. I enjoy watching the little tykes." Luna said cheerfully as she offered everyone coffee and gave each of the kids a piece of candy.

Cagalli gratefully took a cup and smiled at her friend. She then turned to her twins and had a stern, but motherly look on her face.

"You two troublemakers better be good…" Her twins, A.J. and Tommy, just smiled back with innocent faces. Both had short blonde hair and their mother's feisty personality.

"We don't know what you're talking about mommy." A.J. said sweetly.

"A.J's right. Auntie Luna is cool." Tommy added. Rey paled a bit when the twins glanced at him and grinned. "Uncle Rey needs to lighten up though…"

Oh boy…

Athrun shook his head at his two sons but still had a proud look on his face. "You two have calculating minds…do us a favor and don't put it to use tonight. Don't exhaust your aunt and uncle too much." The twins just grinned back.

"Daddy…you'll leave me? Jenny doesn't want daddy and mommy to leave." Athrun smiled down at his little girl and hugged her. "Don't worry. Daddy and mommy will only be gone for the night. You'll see us in the morning."

Rey tensed. They're staying the night! I think I'm going to need some liquor…

Shinn ruffled the blue-haired girl's hair. "You're dad's right, Jenny. We'll all be back before you know it." Jenny nodded with wide eyes at her Uncle Shinn.

Stellar giggled quietly. She rocked baby Remy back and forth in her arms. The baby just made gurgling noises and reached her tiny fingers out to her father who was touching her cheek lovingly.

"Remy is so cute." Meyrin cooed and held a little stuffed teddy bear, which the one year old snatched.

"Remy can't sleep without her teddy. She'll start crying if she doesn't have it." Stellar explained quietly. The others nodded and smiled.

Rey noticed the baby's strong grip. Note to self- Always keep bear within arms length.

Cagalli looked at her watch as gasped. "We better get going. The party starts in half an hour and we still need to drive there."

Athrun stood up and Jenny held to his leg, whimpering. "Don't go." He sighed patiently and patted her head. Cagalli bent down and pried her daughter off, but the girl immediately latched her arms around the blonde woman's neck. Cagalli smiled at her daughter's stubbornness and kissed her cheek. "Stay here Jenny. We'll bring you back some pretty flowers. The violet ones that you love so much…here go to Auntie Luna."

After handing Luna the girl, the others dropped off their children and said their goodbyes.

"Have fun sis! Good luck Rey!" Meyrin shouted out as she exited the house. Rey was about to glare at the girl but Stellar came up to him and deposited baby Remy onto his lap, which he awkwardly held. She was drooling and giggling. You mock me with your cooing and gurgling!

The door finally shut and Luna turned around and beamed at the children, who looked back up at her happily.

"Who's ready to have some fun!"

As the children cheered, Rey wanted to cry…but men don't cry. Let the fun begin…

End of chapter…

Note: Yay! Chapter done! Please review and tell me what you think! It's supposed to be a light-hearted story with humor. Hope you liked the beginning! Poor Rey…but no offense to Rey fans…he seems a bit silly doesn't he? I just thought that if Rey was put into this position he really wouldn't do too well…

Look forward to the next chapter! The kids decide to have some fun with their Uncle Rey while Luna isn't looking…
