"People at school are cruel, they know when they face the real world, they’ll be nothing. They’ve committed murder by abusing others’ souls and some people abused have committed suicide or have tried. Others that people have been made outcastes are in a deep state of depression and hatred of themselves. But even though these may be the outcome of being yourself, you should never be someone your not and live with the abuse that will make you a stronger person in the end.

Relena walked down the stairs to the kitchen. She made a disgusted look as she saw her mother kissing John. She coughed a little and they stopped, blushing shyly. Relena rolled her eyes and sat down at the table. Her mother got up and walked over to the toaster.

"What’s for breakfast, mother?" She said in a rude voice, glaring at John who was smirking at her.

"Toast." her mother said and put a plate of burnt toast in front of Relena. Relena pushed the plate away and got up.

"I rather starve." She whispered and picked up her book bag, then walked out the door.

School passed like a leaf, being blown by the soft morning breeze. And suddenly the wind stops and it lands on the ground, still. Like time stops for a moment.

Relena walked down the stairs and a group of boys walked up; she stopped to let them pass, closing her eyes in sympathy of herself. Laughter raged out and screams saying, ‘Do it, Do it.’ Relena opened her eyes at the feeling of a boy’s hand grabbing the neck of her shirt and ripping it slowly from her body, taking her bra with it. Revealing her every step of the way.

There she stood, her arms quickly draped over her exposed chest and tears beamed in her aquarium eyes. Laughter overwhelmed the air and she dropped to her knees. She gasped and shut her eyes, but opened them at the feeling of someone gently holding her. They rested her head on their chest and Relena blinked, looking up. ‘Heero.’ She thought and lay her head back on his chest. He blocked her bare chest from everyone. There was still laughter and she moved so that her golden hair was covering half her face.

"Tell them to stop." she whispered solemnly. "Tell them to stop." She burst out crying and grabbed onto Heero’s shirt. The bell rang and the laughter quieted as the kids ran to their next class. Heero took off his plaid green, button down shirt and draped it over Relena’s skinny shoulders. He still had on an undershirt and didn’t mind giving up his shirt to Relena. Relena buttoned it quietly and sighed when she was fully covered, tears still dripping from her now dull eyes. The shirt was a little too big, but it didn’t really matter. (It’s the thought that counts right.) Heero was already standing up, turned around and was waiting for her to finish getting dressed. Heero turned around at the sound of her standing up.

"Come on, Relena. I’ll take you home." He said his voice softer than usual. Relena nodded and followed Heero down the stairs to the office. When they got in the office, Relena sat on a bench as Heero explained why he had to take Relena home. The woman allowed it and even offered them a ride home, because she felt pity for Relena. Heero asked the woman to stop at his house, so he could get a new shirt, then go back to school. But Relena told the woman, no one was at her house and that she would feel safer if she stayed at Heero’s house with him. The woman allowed it, of course and said she would get some students to collect their missed work for the day.

Heero opened the door and walked in with Relena following behind him. Heero looked around to see any sign of his mother and there wasn’t. Heero led Relena to his mom’s room to let her get some clothes, even though his mom’s clothes were too tight and skimpy, at least they were girl clothes. Besides all Relena needed was a shirt. He left her there to find clothes while he walked up stairs to his room and got a new shirt.

Relena walked around, not even knowing whose room it was, because Heero didn’t say anything. She presumed that it was his sister at the tight fitting clothes. She opened a drawer and calmly looked through it, keeping it in the order it was before. Messy. She finally found a shirt in the back of the closet that looked like it had never been put on. It was a loose fitting shirt that had a cute little teddy bear in the center. She walked out and heard noise upstairs. She followed the noise to Heero’s room, where he was putting on a new shirt and had on his t.v.

"Heero." Relena whispered and Heero turned around, buttoning his new shirt.

"Huh." He murmured quietly and she looked down at the shirt she put on. He nodded and turned around, she walked next to him and placed his shirt on his dresser.

"Thank you." She whispered and Heero glanced at her. She looked down and smiled slightly, "Heero, could you walk me home?" She looked up for the answer. Heero shrugged and whispered in a monotone voice,

"I really don’t know my way around here, I don’t go out much." Relena smiled faded and she turned around.

"Could I call my mom, to pick me up." Heero nodded in response and Relena she walked to the phone in Heero’s room. Her mom said she would be there in a few minutes and she sighed, then hung up. She didn’t give her mom an explanation on why she was there, just that it was too long to discuss on the phone. Relena walked over to his bed and sat down watching t.v then turned it off. She laid down, her golden hair in a pool on the bed. She looked over at Heero and turned back, closing her eyes.

"Heero." She whispered and opened her eyes, slowly. Heero released her hand and she sat up. Heero stared at her in the eye and they sat there a moment. Heero shook his head and stood up.

"Your mom’s here." He replied and Relena got up from his bed.

"Thank you." She whispered and walked downstairs, to her mom that waiting for her.

For those of you reading I'm sorry for taking long. I'll try my best to get the chapters out faster. I had two different ideas to pick from either this one or another one, but I chose the one with more angst. The other idea, I wrote out was Heero's mom gave him a hickey. ??? Don't ask.
