Day 379: February 14
"'Just one kiss' he said," muttered Rei, her eyes glaring at a document. "'Just one night' he said. 'It'll be fun' he said..." The Senshi of Mars, currently in her princess gown sat at her desk completing the same mundane paperwork. Her dog, Ankle Biter, perked its ears up looking at the door before giving a small little bark and running to the door. The dog had grown twice it's size from fitting in one hand to two hands. It began scratching at the clear, crystal door as a certain General walked through the doors holding a huge vase of Casablanca Lillies.
He gave her a bright smile before setting the flowers on her desk and giving her a chaste kiss on her lips. "How are you today Beautiful?"
Her scowl melted away into a small smile as she placed her hands over her swollen, pregnant stomach. "Ready to give birth to our son," she replied. "He really is kicking my butt."
Jadeite chuckled as he pulled up a chair to sit beside her, "Well, he adds a glow to you."
She smiled as he gave her another heart-racing kiss. He smiled against her lips, "If the baby does not decide to come today," he leaned back looking into the Senshi's amethyst gaze, "Then I have a romantic dinner by candle light reserved for the two of us."
"Ooh. Sounds lovely."
He gave his dashing, handsome smile to her as he kissed the side of her jaw, "And after that, I planned for you a prenatal massage to work out those aches and pains you've been enduring for the past nine months..."
"You spoil me," she teased as he kissed down to her neck.
"And after that... a nice warm-"
Rei hissed with pain as a strong contraction hit her body. Her long nails dug into Jadeite's uniform as it clenched her body for at least a minute. Her breathing became labored as she felt another wave of pain hit her body. She gave a muffled groan before sweat started beading at the side of her forehead. By the time the pain passed, she rubbed her belly. "That was a strong one," she uttered. As he embraced her to try and bring some sort of comfort, she muttered, "Remind me to never let you touch me again."
Jadeite gave a soft chuckle, "Funny you say that as you rest in my arms."
"I MEAN.." she began leaning back into her chair as she stared at the man by her side, "Not touching me in the way that created our son."
The blond pouted, "But I thought you said you liked it when I-"
"Not after these sleepless lights, selective menus my child refuses for me to eat, and the contractions-"
"I'll give you a month tops," teased the General, "before you come pouncing back into my arms."
"Yeah right."
"Wanna bet?"
She gave him a dirty look.
He shrugged, "You are my wife after all." He leaned in to give her another kiss. "I wouldn't be surprised if we had another little one by next Valentine's Day."
Rei paused for a second before looking at her dress seeing the side of it wet. She gently pushed Jadeite away and looked down at the chair she sat in. There was a puddle of fluid.
Her face paled.
It was time.
Rei was lucky. She was in labor for only 5 hours.
By dinner time, she had her and the General's new babe in her arms. The boy looked exactly like his father. He was sleeping in her arms after having nursed. She looked down affectionately at the child. "You, my boy, better not have your father's personality."
Her husband chucked by her side as he kissed her brow. "He will, and he'll have a beautiful, strong woman by his side that will kick his rear to the moon and back if he slips up."
Rei smirked as she relaxed fully in the bed. "Take our son. I'm tired and want to sleep," she muttered, her eyes half closed.
He gave a loving smile as he carefully took their son from her and carried the tiny baby in his arms. He sat beside his wife, the fiery and dangerous Sailor Mars, who deserved a long and restful sleep.
"Happy Valentine's Day," he whispered to her and their son.
