Chapter 5

Relena was greeted with a bunch of happy faces, and a bunch of questions form each one of them. So many questions were asked all at once that Relena felt dizzy for a second. As she stumbled back a step she bumped into Heero who as she looked up at him gave her a reassuring smile.

She then found her strength in that first ever smile that she received from Heero Yuy.

"All right everyone, I know there are many questions I must answer. But how bout we go in order."

Relena then glanced to the person top her left. Hilde stood there looking at her feet almost as if disappointed.

"Hilde, would u like to ask a question," asked Relena as Hilde turned her head up.

"Well, as your best friend I feel like I let you down. I was supposed to keep your secret until you saw fit to let everyone know. And I kind of let the cat out of the bag. I just hope you are not mad at me. Are you?"

"Oh my God, Hilde I could never be mad at you. Like you said we are best friends and I had already known the time had come to let everyone know. Don't worry Hild… we are still besties," replied Relena as she pulled Hilde I for a hug in which they both laughed.

The hug ended and Relena decided it was on to the next. "Duo, what about you any questions?"

"Yeah, how could you tell my wife your secret, and make her keep it from me," asked Duo as he crossed arms and pouted.

Before Relena could reply Hilde stepped in. "Duo I love you, but honestly you have and always will have the biggest mouth in the entire Earth's Sphere Unified Nations." Hilde's statement ended as Duo's jaw dropped and everyone agreed.

"So you all agree with my wife," asked Duo as he hung his head.

Relena walked up to Duo's slouched form and put a hand on his shoulder.

"Don't worry Duo. Yes it might be a small flaw but it is what makes you unique. And I'm sorry if I doubted your ability to keep a secret. I just hope you can forgive me," said Relena as she gave a little pout to Duo.

"Of course I forgive you princess, just don't let it happen again."

"I won't," she then turned her attention to Quatre. "So how bout you Quatre any questions?"

"Yeah, is the baby a girl or boy?" Relena turned to Quatre with a smile.

"It figures that question would come from the most direct of you all. And to be perfectly honest, usually women don't know until the third month. But the doctor said that she is growing unusually fast. Must be her good genes."

"Oh My God, you said she… She's a girl," screamed Hilde.

Hilde then ran over to Relena and gave her hug so hard Relena was almost convinced the baby would pop out of her. "Hilde… can't… breathe"

Relena was then released from Hilde's death grip as Zechs decided to make a statement.

"All right everybody enough questions. Let's let Relena catch up on some rest. She does still have to face every reporter outside of this hospital."

"Yes, I'll resume answering questions later," said Relena.

And with that Relena went back to her room to lay down in the hospital bed.
