Mobile Suit Gundam SEED: Post Chaos

Phase 05.1: Life

It had been two months since the whole girl's night\guy's night ordeal, and things were beginning to settle down around the Yamato household. Kira had finally been convinced by Lacus to tell his parents about his current status in life, and his father and mother were both thrilled. His mother even offered to watch the baby if they needed a vacation. Miriallia and Dearka were getting along wonderfully. She was now two months pregnant, and Dearka couldn't have been happier. Murrue and Mu were getting to be the greatest romance novel ever, and were told to keep it to a minimum around Mir and Lacus.

Life was going smoothly until…

"What the hell do you mean, I did it?" Athrun and Cagalli were arguing. Again. They hadn't been the same since the day he had returned. They were at each other's throats for two hours and then for the next four, they would be in spit-swap city. Then it was back to kill-em-all-and-let-God-sort-em-out. This was really no way to live.

"When I say that," Cagalli snarled, "I mean that you did it! How much more obvious do I have to be you stupid bastard!" Kira was even having a hard time with this. He, least of all, couldn't stand to have his sister and best friend arguing. And Lacus didn't like the idea of them acting like that when the baby was born.

Lacus was now five months in and she showed it. Kira was proud to be father of the baby, but at the moment, he wasn't so proud of his twin. She and Athrun hadn't said a word to each other since their last argument, which ended with Athrun yelling something about how Cagalli was a dirty, and was cheating on him and he then stormed out. He hadn't been seen or heard from since.

Cagalli was now spending all of her time in her room, crying her eyes out. Kira and Lacus had even searched all over the place for him, but they couldn't even get him to return calls on his cell phone. Kira hoped that it was only a matter of time before Athrun returned, but he wasn't so sure. Then, the phone rang.

Kira picked it up first. "Hello. This is Kira. May I ask who is calling?" the voice on the other end sounded relieved. "This is the Brightondale Police. We have someone in custody over here who claims to know you. Says his name is Athrun Zala, or something like that. Can you confirm his story?" Kira's eyes grew big. "Y-Yes," he stammered. "I'll be right over." He hung up the phone, leaned out of his office into the living room and hollered, "Dearka! Get in the car! We're going!"

After a two hour drive, they arrived at the police station. Waiting for them at the front desk was a very scared, very naked Athrun Zala. The man standing beside him stood around 5'8" and was wearing a blue police officer's uniform, complete with handgun. "Sorry, to disturb you," the officer began, "but we found him in an alley like this." Kira tossed a duffle bag towards the blue haired youth. "Here, Athrun," he said, "Put these on." Athrun looked at Kira with an expression that showed that he had been humbled and said, "Thanks, Kira. How is Cagalli doing?"

Kira, sensing that Athrun was not going to run away again in the near nor the distant future, said, "She's locked herself in her room, and is refusing to see anybody except for you." Dearka looked over at Athrun once he was clothed and said, "So, buddy, you ready to go home?" Athrun simply nodded. The trio then walked out of the police station and headed home.

Upon their arrival, Lacus ran out to greet them. "You found him!" Kira got out of the Mercedes, and went to meet his wife's greeting. "Yeah, Lacus," the Freedom's pilot said, "with some legal aide." Lacus wondered as to the meaning of the last response, but she just shrugged it off headed back into the house with her husband and lover.

Athrun slowly approached the door at the end of the hall. As he drew closer, he could hear sobbing coming from the other side. When he reached the door, he knocked. "Who the hell is it now, and what the hell do you want from me?" came the reply. Athrun was shocked at how depressed Cagalli sounded. He had never meant to hurt her like that.

He finally gathered his courage and spoke up. "Cagalli…" but he never got to finish the sentence. The door had been pulled open, and he was dragged inside but his belt buckle. Once inside, athrun was amazed. He had never been inside Cagalli's room before, and he was amazed to see that it was surprisingly like his own. He would have looked around more if it wasn't for the new attachment to his face. He realized that he was being led to the bed, but he didn't care. He was in here with the one person that he loved, and that was good enough for him. He didn't even notice when Cagalli began to undo his belt and… (A.n.\- OMG! OO What is wrong with me! I can't really put this up like this! I might do an M rated redo of this fic, where all parts are together, and it will include extra scenes, but I'm not really sure. N.e.hoo, back to the fic!)

Out in the living room, Kira and Lacus flopped down on the couch. The day had been exhausting, and they were both asleep within minutes.

To Be Continued…

When life gives you lemons, You have to make lemonade. Kira has to face up to the fact that Lacus could miscarry their child, and has to make some difficult decisions. Decisions that could change everybody's lives forever. When they are made, their effects could be felt through the ages. Next on Mobile Suit Gundam SEED: Post Chaos: Life. Make the choice and rise up, Gundam!

A.n.\- well, yeah. This one was real short. But I wrote it on the same day as the other chapters, and it is really kind of nice how it ends. But if you don't like it, then tough. I'm the author here! You can't do anything about it! So, in the immortal words of Stewie on Family Guy: DAMN YOU ALL! So if you don't like this story, then why the hell did you read it this far? Hmm? Just bugger off now and let me write the rest in peace.
