“I hate your mother,” said Chang Wufei, picking up his son as he screamed indignantly.

“Believe me,” said Relena Dorlain-Noventa as she separated the battling toddlers. “I’m not crazy about her myself.”

Lady Dorlain had been a doting grandmother these last two years. She had decided that Louis’ second birthday should be celebrated by “his little friends.” She unfortunately picked a day Prime Minister Darian Noventa had to address the General Assembly. Relena didn’t say a word about coming alone. Heero showed up to escort her back to the Residence.

After several inquiries as to the sanity of Relena’s mother, the results of what Duo called “the Gundam baby-boom” were invited: Duo and Hilde bringing their twins - Helena Catherine and Lilith. Helena promptly took a dislike to Wufei’s son, so she ran up and clonked him. Louis and Amin Barton-Winner promptly jumped to their friend’s defense. Lilith stood outside the battlezone and screamed. Relena gathered up her son. Hilde grabbed Helena out of the melee while Duo quieted Lilith. Amin stood with his chin out, trying to glare down his uncle Heero. Uncle Heero folded his arms and looked amused.

“Happy Birthday!” called Lady Dorlain cheerily, she brought out the cake flanked by Quatre and Trowa in clown outfits carrying other treats. Trowa wore black, with exagerated pouty red lips and Quatre wore white with a large fluffy collar and a blue tear drop on his cheek. “Goodness, what’s happened?”

“Mother,” groaned Relena. “I said this was a bad idea. . .”

“Oh, nonsense! Let’s have some cake.”

The song was sung and Louis blew out the candles. There was relative calm until the last plate had been set down. Amin regarded his painted fathers with great suspicion. He picked up his cake and threw it at Quatre. Quatre sputtered and sat down. Trowa burst out laughing. Quatre pulled off a chunk of cake and pitched it at his partner. Trowa looked at the splattered chocolate on his costume and did the only logical thing. He grabbed a bowl of popcorn and pitched it at Quatre.

The children shrieked. Duo and Hilde backed away as Wufei started throwing jelly beans. Relena ducked more cake. Heero caught Mrs. Dorlain’s arm and got her out of the way. The toddlers shrieked with delight as the three grown-ups produced a bigger mess than they had.

The three collapsed next to the table, laughing helplessly.

“Relena,” said Lady Dorlain with her lips tight. “I don’t believe we will be doing this again.”

“All right, Mother,” Relena agreed. Lady Dorlain didn’t understand why her daughter began to laugh at that.
