Keeping Up Appearances

Part V

By Devon Masterson

AN: I have been hassled for an epilogue or something to
close this so here it is.

Haruka
looked over at Zoe, who was banging on her toy car with a plastic hammer as she
sat in her playpen, and smiled. That was the toddler�s idea of helping mommy
with the car.

It was amazing how much she had grown the past year.
She would be two in six months, but Zoe was not the only person who had been
keeping her busy the past year, her husband was like her second child. He was
the doting father, constantly taking pictures and fawning over her. He was so
sentimental, he even cried when Zoe said her first word, dada. Haruka was a bit
misty and miffed herself at her witnessing her first verbal communication, but
nothing like him. �Between the two of us,
she�ll either be really confused or well adjusted.�

�How�s your car, Zoe-chan?� she asked.

Zoe smiled. �I fix, Mommy!� She continued to bang on
the little yellow Playskool car.

Haruka was proud that Zoe was bright enough to know
that hammer fixed things. She was confident that she would do well in school
when she started to attend.

�I figured you would be out here,� Michi replied as
she swayed slightly side to side.

�I had to replace the intake, there was crack in the
hose, that�s why I haven�t been able to gun it like I used to,� she explained.

�It seemed fine to me,� Michiru commented looking at
the car curiously. Mechanics was never really her cup of tea, but interested
Haruka so she tried to be supportive.

�Without the intake, I can�t get the amount of
performance that I need,� Haruka replied, �The car runs fine.�

�Oh,� she replied rubbing her abdomen. She then
shifted her attention to Zoe happily banging on her toy car. �That is so cute.
I wish I had a camera.� She picked the toddler up and held her. �Hi, Zoe.�

Haruka smirked then unzipped her coveralls and
stepped out of them. �She�s my helper,� she commented proudly. She washed her
hands then walked over to her daughter and best friend. �Won�t be much longer
until your helper shows up.�

�We can�t wait,� Michiru smiled as Haruka took Zoe
into her arms.

�Neither can I, Zoe needs a playmate.�

�Why don�t you and Zoicite have another baby so she
can have a playmate?�

�I�m happy with one,� she laughed, �and you�ll see
what I mean in a couple of weeks.�

Michi blushed. �You�re probably right.�

�I need to change Zoe�s clothes then we can leave to
meet up with the others,� she said walking to the house.

�When does Zoicite come back?�

�He�ll be back tonight,� she answered trying to keep
the excitement out of her voice. She wanted to keep her pining nonchalant it
was her way.

�You miss him very much,� she laughed. �You can�t
hide it from me.�

�I think the time that he spends with Zoe is
important,� she replied side stepping the subject slightly.

�And we�ll leave it at that,� Michi chuckled

*~*~*~*

Haruka
sat in bed looking at a magazine. �Did she tell you all about her day?� she
asked as she felt Zoicite get in bed beside her.

He smiled proudly. �She ate lunch in
a nice place and fixed cars,� he answered. �And how was your day, sweetheart?�

�I landed the account with Tsunami
Enterprises.�

�That�s great,� he replied kissing
her lightly.

Haruka smiled smugly. �I thought you
and I might celebrate your homecoming and my success. It has been two weeks.�

�And you missed me?� he asked
stroking her cheek gently.

�I did notice that you were gone,�
she admitted.

He smirked. She would never change
always evasive. He had to admit he liked the challenge of getting her to open
up to him each time, it made him feel needed. �Well I missed you,� he replied
taking the magazine from her and tossing it to the floor. �It was hell being
away from you for two weeks. All I could think about is you.� He climbed on top
of her and started to kiss the hollows of her neck.

�Tell me about it,� she whispered as
her eyes drifted shut.

�How about I show you what I wanted
to do to you instead?� he breathed in her ear. His hand trailed down to her
most sensitive area. �You have missed me,� he teased seeing her respond to his
ministrations.

�Yes, I did,� she admitted as she
kissed his lips hungrily. She moaned as she felt his member replace hand. He
rubbed against the sensitive bud between her legs. It felt so good having him
there, but she knew something that would feel better. She propped up one of her
legs, parting her legs further as an invitation. The unspoken plea was answered
when she felt him slide inside of her, causing her to suck in her breath in
ecstasy.

�You�re a bad bad girl,� he sighed
as he thrusted into her. His hand caressed her firm derri�re as he tried to
fight just grabbing her by the waist and pushing into her wildly. She was
making him want her too much by being so yielding and sexy and he would have
the pleasure of tempting, testing, and trying her the rest of their lives. She
was all his and he was hers. Theirs was a love making had a certain intensity
that allowed the experience to be imprinted on more than just the memory.

�By the goddess,� she called out as
his control and hers finally slipped. She felt him pushing her up against the
headboard and bending her in ways she would not have thought physically
possible, but she was in excellent shape and it was so good. She could feel
herself starting to quiver in pleasure and knew that she was about climax.

Oh how she missed him! She did not know how she
spent so much time away from him when she was pregnant and once she had Zoe.
Now, the idea was laughable to spend that much time from him. The pleasure was
a major incentive for her true, but she actually enjoyed his company and his
dry humor. They gave each other balance and read each other as well as she and
Michiru did. It kept everything from being routine especially sex, no matter
how many times they engaged themselves it was always intense and driven whether
they were some place risqu� or in the privacy of their bedroom. She was happy.
�Oh, shit. Shit. Shit. Shit. Shit!� she screamed out. She arched her back as
the orgasm rippled through her body and radiated outward to her limbs.

�Haru,� he moaned as he moved faster with in her.
Her outburst greatly excited him and surprised sending him over the edge as
well. He gripped her tightly to him as she writhed in her aftermath.

The two fell against each other. �What did you do to
me?� she asked breathing hard. If they kept this up, she would have to start
taking vitamins and running again.

�Nothing yet,� he replied kissing her hungrily. He
wanted more.

*~*~*~*

�I have clothes at home,� Haruka nearly whined as
she was being pulled along by Zoicite. She was not really in the mood today.
She had been feeling a little woozy off and on throughout the day, probably
from dread. She never really liked shopping and would be content to wear
something simple like khakis and a white shirt. The whole thing was tedious
even if he did have excellent taste.

�So this is the example you are going to set for our
daughter?�

Haruka blushed as she looked at Zoe sitting in the
stroller laughing. The little girl found this situation amusing though she did
not know quite what was going on. All she knew was they were going shopping and
that meant if she was on her best behavior she would get a toy. "Be good
girl, Mommy,� she replied handing Haruka the toy she was playing with as if to
reward her.

She smiled. �Why don�t you keep it for,
Mommy?� she suggested giving the toy back to her.

�See,� he teased.

�Oh shut up,� she said in annoyance
as she walked off in the direction of a clothing store. She hated it when he
was right.

Zoicite smiled. �You look so cute
when you�re annoyed with me,� he commented as he caught up with her. �If our
daughter weren�t here, I�d take you now. I�ll just have to wait until we get
home I suppose.� he added lowly.

Haruka raised an eyebrow at that
prospect. She knew he was kinky enough to do something like that. Amazingly
enough she was conservative sexually, but he brought out the whore in her for
some reason. A great many things had passed between them that she would have
never thought about or tried if it were not for him, case in point how they met
and ended up married. �I�m going to hold you to that.�

He winked as they walked into the
store. �Welcome to Le Boutique,� a sales associate greeted as she worked on a
display. �Feel free to look around and let me know if I can be of assistance.�

Haruka shrugged and kept walking.
Zoicite smiled, �Thank you.� He pushed
the stroller as he looked around. He stood beside Haruka as she looked about
somewhat randomly to see if anything caught her eye. �This is Setsuna�s first
fashion show, so you have to wear something fashionable and smart since your
firm is representing her.�

�Yes I know, the look says it all
let your fashion be your umbrella,� she sighed.

Zoicite frowned. �I never say that,�
he replied. He was getting a little annoyed by her attitude. He was only trying
to help. �If you don�t need my help, Zoe and I meet you at the car.�

�No,� she said quickly. As much as
she hated to admit it, she was not much in the fashion arena. Setsuna and Michi
always helped her pick out her clothes�when she was not in too stubborn of a
mood that is. �I do� need some assistance.�

�Then I guess I can help you since
you are my wife and I hate to see you go down in flames.�

�I wouldn�t go that far,� she said
lowly.

�I�m teasing you,� he said
good-naturedly. �I�ll make it up to you later.�

�Fine by me,� she replied as she
walked over to a suit. It had a vintage �40s look to it. �I like this.�

�Try it on,� he suggested picking up
one in her size. He signaled the sales girl they met earlier to open a fitting
room. �We�ll be out here,� he said as she went inside.

About
fifteen minutes later, she came out wearing the sexy zoot suit. �Very nice.� The suit had the traditional style long jacket
and baggy pants, but it was designed to be worn without an undershirt and tie.
The jacket was cut so that covered the right areas but showed dangerous
cleavage.

�I think a pocket watch would look
good with this,� she said as she looked in a three-way mirror.

�Glad to know that I�m rubbing off
on you a little,� he whispered in her ear as he undid the braid she had her
hair plaited in. He ran his hands through her blond locks and lifted them into
a makeshift upsweep. �You could do your hair in an upsweep with tendrils coming
down,� he whispered. His voice was husky and his warm breath massaged her neck
as he talked. He kissed her neck lightly. �You could wear the pearl choker and
earrings I bought you for your birthday.�

Her eyes drifted shut as she lets
his words playfully seduce her. She remembered that birthday she got jewelry and
the twenty inch rims she had been eyeing from JC Whitney. By the gods, she
loved that man.

�Have you been helped?� a sales girl
asked politely.

The couple turned around, though
they knew it was not going to go anywhere at the moment they were still annoyed
at her intervention. �We�re going to get this one,� Zoicite answered. He was
eager to get the rest of their items and put Zoe down for nap.

The sales girl looked at them
strangely for a moment. It was then that Haruka recognized the girl as the one
who helped her sometime ago when she and Zoicite first started their
relationship. She looked very confused as she looked from the two of them to
Zoe in the stroller. It was obvious that Zoe was their daughter.

�But I thought�� she began then clamped her mouth
shut. She was not going to try and figure it out

*~*~*~*

�That�s a lovely outfit, Haruka,� Ami complimented.

�Thank you,� she replied as she looked around.
Setsuna�s show had been a tremendous success like they all knew it would be.
She was even able to make some contacts with possible clients who were
impressed with her campaign so far. She would have made more contacts if she
did not feel so bad. About halfway through the fashion show she started to feel
sick again. �Maybe we should have taken
it easier this afternoon.� The two had been going at it pretty regularly,
but that was not something new. �I must
be coming down with what Mina had or something. I hope I don�t give it to Zoe.�

�Are you feeling okay, Haruka?� Ami asked.

�I�m fine Ames,�
she replied. �I think I might be coming down with something. I going to find
Zoicite and we�re going to leave.�

�You�ve also been working hard,� Ami added, �and I
know Zoe is a handful. You probably need sometime off.�

�I�m sure I just need some sleep,� Haruka said,
�I�ve been having some late nights.�

�Oh I see,� Ami chuckled.

�I never would have figured you for a pervert, Ami,�
she smirked. �Later.� She started to wade through the crowd of people looking
for her husband. She finally spotted him talking with Malachite and Michiru.
Zoicite and Michiru seemed to have much more to talk about ever since Michi
gave birth a month ago. They were forever trading cute baby stories and she and
Malachite would sit back and watch them proudly, it was entertaining.

Michiru waved to Haruka as she saw her emerge from
the crowd. Haruka smiled politely but Michi could tell that she was clearly
ready to leave. She looked a bit peaked. �Is Haruka alright?�

Zoicite watched as she made her way to them. �She
looked a bit sick when we left but she said she fine. I should take her home.�

�I must look as bad as I
feel from the worried looks on their face,� she replied. Her pulse raced and she could
feel her blood rushing in her ears. She really needed to lie down. She touched
the side of her head as her vision blurred. They had just started to make their
way to her when everything went dark.

�Haruka,� Michi and Zoicite said in unison. She
started to fall forward and he caught her just in time. He took her into his
arms and carried her out before too many noticed and stopped the party.

�Let�s take her to my office,� Ami suggested as
stepped outside of the party. The others joined her as well, except Setsuna,
Rini, and Hortaru. They would end the party and be along shortly. She checked
Haruka�s physical vital signs. �She just passed out. I would like to examine
her.�

A couple of hours later, Ami walked into her lobby
and looked at the expectant and worried eyes on her. �She has the flu,� she
announced. �She had a slight fever so I gave her something for it right away
because of her condition.�

At the word �condition� they all looked at Zoicite
and raised an eyebrow. He was just as surprised as they were. �She�s pregnant?�

Ami smiled and nodded. �So you�re going to have to
take good care of her. She needs to stay in bed for at least a week and here�s
a prescription for her medication,� she said handing him a sheet of paper.

�Can I see her?�

�She�s asleep, but you can sit with her,� she
replied. She was grateful that she was right and it was not anything serious.
She suspected that Haruka was pregnant the moment she saw her. She looked like
she was slightly bloated and had the nauseated look. She looked like that right
before she moved to the States and she was pregnant with Zoe.

�Thank you,� he said as he left the lobby.

*~*~*~*

Haruka opened her eyes and yawned. She felt a
hundred times better and was ready to take on anything. A good night�s sleep
was what she needed. She threw back the covers and quickly got out of bed only
to sit back down. She felt so dizzy and weak all a sudden.

�Mommy,� Zoe called out as she ran into the room
ahead of Zoicite. She climbed on the bed and tackled Haruka. �Miss you.�

�I miss you two, munchkin,� she replied kissing her
on the forehead.

�I�m glad you�re awake,� he replied carrying a tray.
�I brought you something to eat.�

�How did you know I was hungry?�

�I figured you would be after sleeping the whole
week away and if you weren�t I was going to wake you up anyway,� he replied.
�Now eat up.�

�A week!?� she asked.

�Eat first then we talk.�

Normally, she would have argued with him but the
food was too tempting and she was starving. She began to eat what he brought
her. Once she finished, she felt satisfied and revitalized. �So what happened?�
she asked as Zoe lay in her lap. �I remember the party then waking up here.�

�You passed out,� he answered. �Ami did some tests
and found out that you had the flu. You slept most of the week.�

Haruka stretched. �Well now that I feel better. I
should go and start catching up on the work I missed,� she replied running her
hands through Zoe�s hair. The toddler had fallen asleep.

�Not until after your doctor�s appointment,� he
replied.

�I feel fine, I don�t need
to see Ami.�

�With Dr. Akimura,� he added.

�Dr. Akimura, she�s my�� Haruka reached over to the
nightstand and picked up her planner. She looked back a few months and noticed
that last month did not have star on any of the days. This month was nearly
over and it did not have a star on any of the days either. She looked towards Zoicite
and saw the grin on his face.

�I know we did not plan it,� he replied as he lay
back on the bed and pulled her to him so that she could lie
her head on his chest.

�We didn�t the first time either,� she pointed out.

�But we will be fine. I�ll be right here with you
filming the entire thing.�

�You�re going to have me kill you.�

�I�ll seduce you before it gets that far,� he
teased.

�Just like a man to think with his�� her sentence
trailed as she saw their daughter sleeping peacefully, �privates.�

�I�m not the only around here that does that.�

�I�m hormonal,� she explained.

Zoicite smirked at her smugly. �That�s something I
never expected for you to say.�

�You should always expect the unexpected with us.�

�That�s what I like about being married to you,� he
replied kissing her forehead. �It�s never boring.�
