It was noon, and Lee just has finished his patrol with Yu.

After he drove her home, he found that there was a message from Julia, on his phone, calling him to pick her up from the hospital.

Lee wondered what she was doing here. The letter just made him open his eyes widely.

"Alright Yu, I'll meet you by Night," Lee said while looking at the letter.

[Pick me up. I am in the northern hospital, 5th floor]

Why would she be there in the first place? He wondered.

"Mm… I will wait for you." Yu kissed Lee on the lips before going back to her apartment.

Lee then drove to the hospital. His driving speed was higher than usual. He wondered why his Julia was there. He hoped it is not something bad. However, when he got there, he found her standing up on her feet, wearing casually and walking.

"Mom. You have scarred me. What's going on?"

Lee asked as he put his hands on her shoulder and looked behind her. He examined her body to see if there is any injury.

Julia chuckled.

I'm pregnant."

"What! But all you do is staying home and playing yourself-- ahem -- watching TV" Lee felt like tearing up a wall to shreds.

"Just kidding. I'm not pregnant" Julia punched his shoulder slightly. "I've heard that your previous boss was in a coma, so I just came here to give him a visit. His daughter is there. As well." She then pointed behind them, to see Fuyumi there. "She talked about you, nicely."

Lee sighed in relief. He then gave her a gaze. "You should've explained that in your message. What did you think I would feel when I read that you are in hospital."

Lee rolled his eyes. "I would've given you the priority though."

"I know." Julia hit his shoulder.

Very soon, Fuyumi came to them.

"Lee."

"Fuyumi."

Lee nodded at her. Fuyumi had a slight blush on her face when she met with his eyes. The last time, when he had healed her dad, she had kissed him in front of his blonde girlfriend.

"This is awkward," Fuyumi said as she looked at the corner.

Julia took few steps back and gave them space while staring at them with her lips twitching.

"It's okay. You've done what you wanted to." Lee said as he put his hand on her shoulder.

She smiled as she lowered her head, and then she noticed Lee's big usual abs are visible, through his usual costume. Those muscles are always attractive.

"I see you still wearing your hero costume."

"Yes."

Lee nodded at her as he squeezed her shoulder gently.

Fuyumi had a slight blush and looked up to him. "Why do you have to be so tall?" If there was anything to happen, she cannot just stand on her toes. She, however, would have to jump if she wants to reach his face.

"What. Is there something you want to say?" Lee bent over until his face was on one level with the buxom white-haired woman.

"Just saying this to get it off my shoulders. It's about what happened the last time." Fuyumi smiled and placed her hand on his shoulder. "I really liked you."

"Me too," Lee admitted with a sigh.

"What! For real?"

"You knew!" Fuyumi opened her eyes widely. She had thought that her glasses had covered where he eyes had been looking.

"Well. They say all perverts wear glasses."

"Ahem!" Fuyumi turned her face. "Well, that's not totally, right."

"I know." Lee teased a bit. The girl is under stress, so Lee figured that he should act as gentle as possible. Probably, the teasing would help her.

Knowing that he is teasing her, Fuyumi stared at his face, with half-closed eyes, like an older sister who wanted to scold her little brother. However, such a glance did not work on Lee.

"Well, you are a pervert and don't wear glasses."

"That's not true."

The two of them then smiled at each other.

"Well, I have to go, Shoto would be home and someone would need to prepare his dinner."

Lee just closed his eye and inserted his tongue. Feeling the ripples inside of her, Fuyumi closed her eyes and enjoyed it. That feeling was heavenly. It was what helped her a few days ago, so she took her time with the kiss, to grasp that feeling. In addition, her guess was right. The kiss is what had helped her.

While feeling good, Fuyumi wondered if this was the feeling that comes from unexplained love. She did not care at this moment if his girlfriend had yelled at her… though she said its okay.

*Muah*

Pulling their lips back, Lee stood up. Fuyumi turned her face and gave her back to him, before slowly walking away.

Julia raised her eyebrows, before blinking twice.

"Say sorry to your girlfriend for me," Fuyumi said.

"Tell them that," Lee replied.

Thinking about his girlfriends, tomorrow he has a private date with Rumi.

"Them?"

As a schoolteacher and someone who take care of her house, mom, and brother, she may get overstressed. However, the kiss helped to relieve some of that stress.

Julia, on the other hand, was having a cup of water. "What did I miss?" she murmured as she saw Lee approaching her.

She then silently followed behind him and entered the car with him.

As lee was driving, she was thinking if she should tell him.

"Lee."

"Yes."

"Did you become a religious person while I was outside of the country?"

She had to know what type of persons he is, what exactly his beliefs are.

"Do I look like Ibara to you?" Lee said as he rolled his eyes.

"Right. You and I are the same," She said.

"I know about you." Lee sighed.

Julia continued as she patted his shoulder.

Taking a deep breath, she waited for some seconds before talking again.

"You have done nothing wrong, biologically. It's all but p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e and instinct. Don't let what some thinks control your ideals. You're free, as long as your thinking is."

Morals were not constant. They change from a person to another. From time to another. Just a few hundred years ago, homos.e.x.u.a.lity was not moralistic. What Lee just did was not wrong in ancient times.

She then looked over the window.

(A/N: her point of view, not mine.)

Julia was the kind of persons who did not believe in absolutely those morals. Absolute does not change. However, Lee seemed like a kind person. Therefore, she had just to guide him, in case someone else tried to tell him what is wrong and what is right.

"What." Lee looked at her, as if not understanding what she is saying, "What are you talking about. I'm a straight person."

"It's about Fuyumi."

"Mom, listen," Lee chuckled. "First, we only kissed. No relationship has started. Second, Fuyumi is not a trap to make a case out of it. She isn't, Right?"

Lee then opened his eyes widely and wondered if she noticed something, she did not notice. Julia usually notices things he cannot. Like where his clothes are. Even if they were in front of Lee, only she can find them.

Julia was an opened minded person – one of the reasons he loves her – and she did not even mind him having a harem. However, seeing her talking like that, made him wonder if she noticed something he did not notice.

'No f.u.c.k.i.n.g way! No… no… no way!' Lee thought.

"Well, since nothing has started it's good. That's for the best anyway. You shouldn't do something behind your girlfriends. It's not too cool"

Julia rolled her eyes. "But, it's your life anyway. No matter what you do, I will be on your side. I want you to know that."

"I get it." Lee focused on the road while thinking, 'Awe…'

"Let's not mention that again. I want to watch TV." Julia decided to forget the topic.

"By the way, mom, come here."

Lee extended his hand and put it on her head.

"What…" Julia narrowed her eyebrows, as she saw him

"Nothing." Lee patted her head and messed with her hair.

"So, you think you've grown up to pat my head." Julia, as she felt him mocking her, bit his hand and sank her teeth there.

"Ouch." Lee took his hand back and waved it. "Why did you bite so hard?" Lee's hand regenerated in no time and the pain vanished.

She adjusted her hair. "You messed with my hair that took an hour to adjust. It's only fair to punish you slightly."

"Geez. I just gave you a super regeneration, and you bit me. You are dangerous, mom" Lee rolled his eyes as Star Platinum parked the car next to their apartment.

"Wait, what?" Julia suddenly looked at his face, stunned. "Repeat that?"

Lee chuckled as he got out of the car. "Which part, the first or second."

"Hey, come back here when I'm talking to you, mister. You're right about the second part, I'm dangerous. And don't ask me to give you a break. What do you mean by the first one." She rolled her eyes and walked after him.

"Let's entre before we talk."
