Mobile Suit Gundam SEED:

Post Chaos

Phase 06: Life Pt.2

Kira was a little dumbfounded. Lacus could miscarry at any time. He was so absorbed in thought that he didn't even notice Dearka walk into the living room. So, he was quite believably startled when the blonde Coordinator began to speak.

"Hey, um… Kira?" the blonde said with a look of confusion on his face. Kira, who was now shaken out of his completely derailed train of thought looked over at him to see that the usually certain and calm form of Dearka Elsman was almost distraught and embarrassed.

"Dearka," the brunette began, but was interrupted by a scream coming from the bedroom he shared with Lacus.

The two ran to the room only to see a very sweaty, very pregnant Lacus clutching the bed sheets with both hands. Her eyes, however, were closed so tight, that it seemed as though her skin would break away from her head if they were to shut any more. Kira quickly ran over to the bed, and lifted his wife out of it and began carrying her out to the couch, where he put her down. Instantly, she stopped screaming, and proceeded to finish her nap.

"So…" Dearka's curious side was beginning to show through. "Listen, D. She's been like this for the past two months." Kira looked like he was ready to kill Dearka, until he looked up and saw that Dearka's face had a look of genuine concern etched on it.

Dearka looked back at his friend. "So. It's been seven months already." The brunette Coordinator looked at the ground, and then back up at the blonde. "Yeah. And ever since she told me about…" Kira was trailing off into another topic. And Dearka was aware of what Lacus had told Kira, as she had first told Mir, who had conveyed it to his own ears.

Dearka looked back at Kira and said, "Look, Kira. We don't have to talk about it if you don't want to."

Kira looked at the blonde with a look that expressed how truly thankful he was to have somebody around who understood what it was that he was going through. "Thanks, Dearka," he replied to the tan Coordinator's comment. "I really want to thank you for being there for me to talk to through all of this."

Dearka looked back at Kira with a humbled and embarrassed look on his face. "Geeze, Kira. Never knew that you felt like that. But if it's all the same, you're welcome." His face then brightened. "Look, why don't I watch the house. You and Lacus go on a vacation." He then looked up to see that Lacus was now awake and standing in the doorway, looking at the outside world.

Kira got up from where he was sitting and walked over to his wife. "I guess you heard that last part."

Lacus turned to face him and smiled. "Yes. I did." Kira's face turned grim when he realized that a vacation would no longer be a surprise to the love of his life. "And?" "And," she said as she leaned in towards him, "would be wonderful."

Kira looked down at Lacus, and they shared a fond embrace. "Kira?" the pink hair pop idol looked up at her husband.

"Yes, Lacus? What's wrong?" Kira knew that something was up, and was afraid that maybe Lacus had miscarried. "Kira, do you promise to love me no matter what happens?" She looked up at the brunette with watery eyes. And he looked back, and said, "Yes, Lacus. I promise."

"Oh, will you two just pack and get out of here." They couple looked over at Dearka, who looked as though he was about to puke. "What'sa matter? Can't little Dearka stand to see two Coordinators who love each other?"

Dearka looked towards the voice to see Cagalli, who was wearing a white cut off shirt, with a pair of blue jeans, emerge from her room. Over her shoulder was a jean jacket that was worn with the sleeves much longer than the rest of it. "You know, Cagalli, Dearka hasn't been able to stand seeing people make out since the first day I met him." Athrun was now behind the blonde Natural, and aside from the fact that his hair had become quite log and messy, he looked the same as always.

Cagalli looked back at the Blue haired Coordinator and said on thing: "Tie that back, please." Athrun obligingly reached into his pocket and pulled out a rubber band, and tied back his hair, causing it to look much neater.

Looking around, one could tell that there was a definite air of togetherness in the room. Here they were, five friends, all sharing in one common joke. It was the greatest thing that any of them could have ever hoped for.

"Listen you four," Dearka said with what he thought was his whiniest voice, "I'm gonna count to four, and if I should have to proceed to five, then you're all dead." Athrun looked at Dearka, and a smile slowly crept on to both men's faces. The two jumped into the center of the room and began to wrestle. Kira and Cagalli only became involved when they deemed that Athrun was the definite winner.

After that, Kira went with lacus to find a plane to take them away for a few weeks. They were hoping that this would allow them to take their minds off of work, miscarriages and various other worries that came their way.

From the door, Dearka, Athrun, and Cagalli all watched the pair drive off. In their minds, they were relieved that Kira and Lacus would get few days away from the worries of the world.

Athrun looked at Cagalli, and she looked back at him. The pair then looked at Dearka and began to make out.

"AW! NOT RIGHT! DO YOU TWO HAVE TO… C'MON! STOP! GUUUUUYYYYYYYYS!" Dearka was trying desperately to stop the love, you know how it goes.

To Be Continued…

Preparations are made for major events, but nobody can ever really say what can happen at that particular event. For Kira and Lacus, that event is only two months away. So all their current plans are beginning to revolve around the new arrival that will be home shortly. Next on Mobile Suit Gundam SEED: Post Chaos: Preparations. Rise up and over come the turmoil, Gundam!

A.n.\ - okay. I know that this one took me a lot longer to get out than the other five chapters. I really had to clean up the material. It was getting to be a pain. I also went out and got advice from a teacher at school about how to improve my writing. So, as you can see, I am dedicated to giving a quality fanfic, each and every chapter.

Again, please R&R! Thanx!
