Hush my love now don't you cry
Everything will be all right
Close your eyes and drift in dreamRest in peaceful sleep
The young woman opened her eyes sleepily. Beautiful pale blue moonlight streamed gracefully through the open window and cast long shadows across the room. Outside crickets and other night creatures played their enchanting natural lullabies quietly, creating a rich tapestry of life. The night was her favourite time of day. It was so still and quiet and time itself seemed to stop and relax. The world forgot its worries and was carried away in a canopy of sleeps. So calm, so quiet. The only noise disturbing the tranquillity was her own breathing…and that of her partner's.
Relena Dorlain Peacecraft Chang shifted her head slightly on the silky pillow to look at the man beside her. His face was mere inches away from hers. His eyes were closed in peaceful slumber and his eyelashes cast long dark shadows onto his cheeks. The long mane of jet hair spun out across his pillow and reached over to her side, gently enticing her to him. His muscular frame was hidden beneath the bed sheet, but one shoulder protruded as he lay on his side. It was rounded but sinewy, and smooth as marble. Its golden brown colour was darkened by the strange glint of the moonlight and made him look like a sculpture frozen and beautiful. Wufei sighed silently in his sleep, this only evident by the deepened rising and falling of his frame. Relena's lips curled into a small shy smile. His hand reached out in sleep and rested upon her pillow; the fingers slender, graceful and mild and oh so familiar.
If there's one thing I hope I've shown you
If there's one thing I hope I've shown you
Hope I've shown you
Just give love to all
Just give love to all
The two years that she had lived with him had been like a dream Relena had never dreamt. All of her life she had had stability, security and above all else, love. Until she had met the marron haired Gundam pilot named Yuy however. She had remained strong ever since, fighting against the oppressors of peace, healing her brother, dealing with Mariamaia, her career and her engagement, she had stayed strong. That was until that stubborn, arrogant and proud enigma of a man had stepped into her life again. The chauvinist, the Gundam Pilot, the Martial artist, the Preventer, the husband, lover and friend. He was everything, he was her all. He made the day bright and the night like this; wondrous and peaceful. He had come and taken all of that worry and pressure away from her. Which isn't to say that they never argued, or things never got on top of them, they often quarrelled, but that was the people that they were. He worried about her too much and she in turn didn't want to burden him. But neither were perfect, and neither professed to be, so it was. A slow and painful road to becoming the people they wanted to be.
Relena gently took his hand in hers. It was warm and firm and strong and soft all at once. It comforted and cajoled her, simply because it belong to him. Even now as she held it against her cheek, she couldn't help but feel her heart flutter at his touch. Small drops of salted water squeezed out from the corners of her eyes. He was so precious and so perfect for her that it made her fearful to let go of him. Smiling gingerly she pulled his hand beneath the covers and against her stomach. His eyelids fluttered slightly. Watching every twitch of his features, Relena lay quietly. He finally opened his eyes tiredly and it took a few moments for them o focus and rest upon his wife's face. He smiled softly, not upset in the least to be awakened in the middle of the night to such a beautiful sight. He let his gaze wander down to the source of heat that warmed his hand.
My love in my arms tight
Everyday you give me light
As I drift off to your world
Rest in peaceful sleep
"It's kicking…" He stated quietly, in a hushed sense of wonder. Relena nodded gently, still intent on her husband's face. His lips parted and let an astonished breath pass between them. It still amazed him to think that he was going to be a father. It amazed him that this golden haired goddess was his forever and she was carrying his child, a tiny bundle inside of her. He leant up on an elbow, making his long black tresses tumble down over his shoulder. Never moving his hand away from its resting place, he frowned down at her.
"Relena, it's kicking…"
He sounded worried and reserved. Relena's faced crinkled slightly as she leant up to be beside him. She placed a hand over his. "Wufei…it's alive…inside of me" He stared down at her swollen stomach, covered only by the thin layer of her slip. Her hand squeezed his reassuringly. The Chinese man took her face and stared at her intently. She was so incredibly beautiful, a sight to be held. His lips gently stroked hers with a fondness that only a husband and wife could share. She opened her eyes slowly, still tasting his exotic flavour that had become so common to her. Wufei stroked her cheek with the side of his thumb, admiring every curve and contour and let his eyes stroll over her pearly skin, tainted blue in the moonlight. Such an ethereal angel, so pure, so innocent and so strong.
Sighing quietly, he laid back down adjusting himself as she placed herself in his arms. Settling down Wufei placed his hand over the small lump on his wife's petite belly. She wriggled into comfort and was content against his powder-soft firm skin. "Good night Relena" He said huskily… to which she corrected "Mrs Chang"
If there's one thing I know you've shown me
If there's one thing I know you've shown me
Know you've shown me
Just give love to all
Let's give love to all
The End
