Yes I know short but I cut out the sex scene you want to read it go to to read it.

Chapter Twenty-Three: Yes or No.

Wufei groaned. The giggling wasn't going to stop. He opened a single eye and looked into the giggling faces eyeing him. He had curled himself around Duo and placed his head on the only available spot that wouldn't hurt his love. His right hip. Duo's hand was buried in his loose hair.

"What do you want?" He grouched.

"Time to eat Wufei." Katey said giggling at the sight of the two men. She had only seen children cuddle like these two men were. The older ones like her avoid cuddling. It astonished her that Duo could do so. "If you don't eat soon your stomach will eat you."

Wufei was about to grumble a reply when the stomach close to his head and his own agreed with what Katey said. Loudly!

Duo who was grinning as he listened to the teasing. When his stomach decided to add its comment to the conversation to be joined by Wufei's in perfect harmony he giggled uncontrollably.

Wufei was up out of his position and handing his love a pillow to help him. He looked on in concern as Duo groaned around his giggles. He couldn't help leaning forward and placing a gentle kiss on his loves lips distracting him from his pain.

"But Baba," Sakura pulled on Wufei's shirt sleeve. "Duo-Daddy's injury in on his tummy." She pointed out the fact calmly.

Wufei blinked and looked over at his daughter. "You're right. Do you want to kiss it and make it better or should I?" Wufei asked with a little smile. He watched as his daughter thought of what she wanted to do.

"You do it Baba." She looked up with intense onyx eyes into her father's intense onyx eyes. "You love him soooooo much that it will get better even faster." She scrunched her shoulders happily at having such a good idea.

Duo grinned at the words from his knew munchkin. "Why don't you both kiss it better. That way it will heal even faster because you both put so much love into it." Duo grinned as Sakura nodded happily.

Wufei chuckled and wrapped an arm around his daughter so she wouldn't lean to heavily. They both placed a kiss on the bandage that covered the front of his wound.

"You see!" Duo crowed. "It feels better already." His grin softened to a smile as he looked at his new daughter. She was a gift that he would protect with all his soul. Just as he knew Wufei would as well.

Wufei saw the smile and leaned closer to Duo putting Sakura in kissing distance for his love. He watched as Duo gave his little one a kiss on the forehead. It was as gentle as a butterfly's wings brushing across the skin.

Stomachs rumbled in protest again bringing laughter from the watching audience.

"Feed me!" Duo's and Sakura's voice rang out in the room breaking the scene from the loving one that was going on.

Laughter rang out at the chorus of people wanting food. Tables were set up chairs were dragged into position. Everyone settled down to eat there dinner. For it was time for supper. Giggles, laughter, and chuckles were heard as the group ate there dinner with vigor and delight at the company it was being eaten with.

"Ahem."

The sound of a throat being cleared startled the group of six in the room. They turned to see who wanted their attention.

Iria Connaught stood in the doorway of the hospital room. She had watched as the group interacted and wondered how and who they were. Quatre had told her that Duo had been hurt on a Preventer mission but nothing else. Her sisters and her had finally came to a decision about the project that the young man had proposed and was here to tell them what it was.

She didn't hear her brother and Heero coming up behind her. She had focused her complete attention on the room and the people there in.

Duo looked up and at what Wufei and Howard were looking at with grim faces. His heart fell at the sadness in the eyes of the women standing there. He already knew what the answer was. He nodded as tears began to fill his eyes.

"I'm sorry Mr. Maxwell." Iria murmured. "We just can't do this project at this time. It would take to much time and effort for us to take it on. It's just not possible and won't work." She watched as the long haired man turned from her to bury his face into the pillow he had been holding over his stomach.
