Never Alone

Freyris

A/n: LOL OMG. I really, really should stop publishing new stories when I still have some unfinished ones. I've been pondering if i should go for this or not but I just did. I can't really say how this story would be. I have the tendencies to throw in sudden/random/by the mood events. But I do hope you like this one. I feel like going back to the Drama/Romance + Hurt genre. It's been a while since I last wrote one and yes this might be a multichapter but not by a long shot.

Disclaimer: I do not own GUNDAM SEED/DESTINY, Sunrise, Bandai.

They say a man can't live alone, that no man is an island. However, I think the other way around. it's always going to be just me. I'd be alone. Always on my own. I believed.. I can be just with myself. No ties, no relationship, no nothing. Just me and freedom.

That's what I thought before.

But things do happen. Unexpectedly and...

Actually, I cannot say that I'm alone anymore but I do still feel alone despite...having a child. A son. My most prized possession. Something I wouldn't exchange for.

Before, I used to think that I have to live for myself but now I have to live for this child. Just me and my little bundle of joy. I cannot rely on others, I cannot trust just anyone anymore.

The young blonde caressed the soft rosy cheek of the infant cradled in her arms. His soft pinkish lips pouting and squirming asking his mother to feed him while his little balled fist started thrashing around demanding for food. His soothing coo-ing cries were music to her ear. His cries made her remember she wasn't alone. Not anymore.

She giggled softly and grabbed the warm baby bottle by the bedside and placed it gently on the mouth of the infant and the small child began sucking the milk from the bottle, hungry. She shushed him gently and hummed a lullaby.

"It's just you and me now little tyke" She mumbled as she pressed her lips lightly on his forehead and let a tear shed from her eyes.

This was the last time she would cry. She swore to herself.

7 years later

"For the love of Haumea, Aiden!" The blonde female who was in her late twenties yelled as she opened the door leading to her son's room. She looked around and saw all of his toys scattered everywhere on the floor. "Wake up child!" She said skipping over a toy truck and nearly stepping on the miniature toy soldier.

"Mmhmmm" A soft groan was heard under the sheet of blue covers.

Cagalli Hibiki sighed and sat on the side of the small lump on the bed. "Sweetie, wake up. We still have to get ready!"

The small lump on the bed started giggling under the sheets and continued to hide under, refusing to give in. She felt him shake a little but refused to move an inch from his position hence she was left with no other choice.

Cagalli sighed and rolled her eyes. "Alright, I give up! If you don't want to get up, Fine." She said as she pretended to walk back towards the door and shut it close.

Aiden, Cagalli's son remained quiet for a few seconds and tried to sense his surroundings if the coast was really clear. When he heard nothing he pulled out his cover revealing his midnight colored hair sticking out everywhere and frowned. "Gotcha!"

Cagalli lightly jumped on top of her son and began tickling him on his sides. "Think you can fool me huh?" She giggled.

Little Aiden laughed loudly and tried to stopping his mother from tickling him."S-sorry Mommy" He said in between laughter.

A sudden knock on the door made both mother and child stop with what they were doing to looked up at the door. They found the man of the house standing on the door frame grinning widely at them as if he was ready to point and laugh at them.

Which he did.

"Seriously, I have no doubt that you are mother and child" He approached them, skipping over the toys effortlessly and gave both of them a kiss on the forehead.

Both Cagalli and Aiden had their hair sticking out everywhere and they both had similar grins plastered on their face. "Good morning" She greeted him

"Good morning, Cagalli" He replied back and squat on the floor meeting the young boy on eye level.

"Good morning to you too." He said as he smiled at Aiden. "Make sure to tidy up the room before you leave sport" He reminded him as he ruffled his hair. "or else your mother might go ballistic when she finds out the mess you hid in that cabinet" He pointed at the other door across the room.

It was Aiden's mini storage room in which he stuffs all his things in. The night prior they were playing all sorts of boy's game and thrashed the whole room while Cagalli was at work.

Young Aiden nodded his head and flashed him a toothy grin, except he was missing a tooth. Cagalli giggled and kissed Aiden on the cheeks. "Now, let your Papa get you fixed up while I check some mails and prepare your breakfast"

"What? Cagalli don't burn the kitchen up!"

"Oh shush you! I know how to cook Kira!" The blonde glared at her brother before breaking into a small grinned "I learned a lot from Lacus, she's a great cook and I'm her best student!"

Kira, the man who Aiden calls Papa snorted and shoo-ed her away. "Alright, alright, go play in the kitchen, Master Chef." He laughed and watch Cagalli playfully roll her eyes at him as she disappeared from the hallway. "Now let's get you ready before we all fetch your Mama Lacus at the airport shall we?" He turned to the boy and pulled Aiden out of his bed and helped him fix his bed.

"Yeeey! We're going to the see airplanes" Aiden cried with joy and dashed towards the bathroom.

"Mama, How long will Daddy be in the States? How many days does it take you to arrive there?"

The red haired female knelt down on one knee and brush the long midnight colored locks of the child who looked at her with curious eyes. She was indeed a mini copy of his father, she thought.

"A couple of hours." She said " And your father will be staying there for just about a few weeks or so, Cathleen" She smiled and kissed her tiny forehead. "Before you know it he'll be back home and Daddy will bring you to the amusement park" She said assuring Cathleen "Then we can go out to the beach like you wanted to"

The young child nodded her head and ran towards the wide glass window extending from both ends of the building and over viewing the runway in the airport. "Bye Daddy come back home quickly, okay?" She grinned and waved at the airplane that was preparing to take off.

The older female watched in silence as she observed Cathleen hopped towards her and drag her to view deck outside of the airport.

How was it? I'll try to update the next chapter ASAP. Tell me what you guys think so far. Theories? I'm open to it as well as suggestions. For now everything is still a little fuzzy and confusing but later on as the story progresses everything will be clearer.

Fangirl Declassified MIGHT be update by weekend so watch out for another long chapter ^^ I owe my readers that much.
