Chapter 8
Relena returned with a scotch on the rocks for Heero and a glass of champagne for herself.
Heero watched her as she lifted the glass to her lips, but with one swift motion the glass was no longer in her possession.
"Hey that's MINE," Relena yelled as she saw Heero holding her flute. He then turned and poured the contents of the glass out.
"What did you do that for," asked Relena in a very pissed off tone.
"Are you serious? You can't drink while pregnant. You might have gotten away with it this long, but now that everyone knows forget about it." Heero's tone was serious.
"Oh my, I completely forgot. I've been trying to pull off not being pregnant for so long, that I've been poisoning my baby. Oh my god I'm a horrible mother," said Relena as she burst into tears.
"What have I done," she asked.
Heero got up and walked over to her side of the table as he held her. He then proceeded to whisper in her ear. "Hey this is new to both of us. It may take some time but don't worry, we will figure this out I promise."
She looked up at him with eyes full of hope. "Do you really think we can make this work?"
Heero then grabbed her hands and got her to stand with him. "I know you can be the best parent ever. To be honest I question myself a little, especially since the only thing I've ever taken care of was my gundam. But we will learn together don't worry Relena we got this."
"You know honestly, I don't know whether you response should make me happy or shocked. Since when did you become so sympathetic," asked Relena.
"Well, Une has Wufei and I in therapy. She says it will help us adapt batter to the world we helped create."
Relena stood there shocked for a moment but finally responded. "Remind me to thank the good Captain. I have to admit, it's definitely working."
"Well in any case, I got you a little something," he said as he pulled something out of his pocket.
"Now it's just a temporary gift till I can get you a nicer one but here," he said as he handed her a small jewelry box.
Relena opened the box to discover a ring with a note that read…
What is a gundam pilot without a gundam?
Nothing without your heart
so team 01 needs to become 2
Will you marry me?
As Relena finished the corny note. Tears started forming from an untold amount of happiness as she screamed "YES, A MILLION TIMES YES"
"Really? Even after Duo's horrible attempt at writing some sappy letter for me?"
Relena laughed she couldn't believe it. Everything seemed so perfect.
