Chapter 1:
In the ladies dressing room, a young woman about the age of 21 with dirty blonde hair and deep, sky blue eyes, opens up her duffel bag and takes out a racer?s body suit and helmet. ?I can do it?like I always could. I got win, no matter what.? She nervously squeezes herself into her hot pink with black and white checkered flag on the back racer?s body suit. She slowly zips up the zipper half way between her breasts and throat. ?Even though I have done this for 3 years, I am still nervous before every time I get ready for another race.? She pauses for a moment, trying to sort out her thoughts, and then she slowly put on her helmet and walked to into the arena.
She looked around he arena for her racecar. She spotted it quickly; it was in the front of the starting line. ?I know they are still looking for me all these years. But still they won?t give up until they find me.? She scanned the arena to see if any suspicious looking men, but found none. She runs to her car and asks the guys who were checking her car, what were the conditions and status.
"Well Reli Craftlian?" The man seems to be distracted by how low her zipper was to her breasts. ?Oh what a pervert.?
"Excuse me I asked what were the status and condition of my racecar here! I didn?t ask you to gaze at my breasts!" she sneered with a disgusted look.
"Oh uh sorry Ms. Craftlian?what your have here is one excellent heck of a car. All the status and conditions are all good." He said nervously, afraid that the woman would kick his ass, cause she has a reputation of kicking peoples? asses when they bother or annoying her.
"Good," she gave him a glare and got into the vehicle. ?Well Reli Craftlian, or should I say Relena Darlian Peacecraft, here I am again, in the front and ready for one heck of a race? she thought. ?All these years, I still can?t remember where I stashed it.?
"All racers please get inside into your vehicles at the starting line, the 80th Annual NASCAR Racing World Wide Race is about to begin in 15 minutes." The loud speaker boomed.
?Well?here I am again?racing away from my past.? Relena smiled, but the smile soon changed to sorrowful frown. She felt herself thinking about her past, everyday she had this same feeling for 10 years. She waited for the announcement of the race to begin. ?I just don?t?like this kind of racing one bit. I just don?t?.. know? why I am stilling racing again and again.?
~
"Yo Heero, are you ready to race?" a young man around the age of 21 with dark violet eyes, a long light brown braid and of course a cheery smile, wearing a dark blue and white racer body suit, and holding a black helmet, who seems to be an American, asked a young man beside him. ?Man he is always has that weird expression all the time.?
"Yeah," answered an annoyed young man around the age of 21, he seems to be a Japanese descendant, with dark, ocean eyes, unruly brown hair, wearing a dark green and black racer body suit, and also holding a black helmet but with one green streak on the front. ?Oh, that stupid baka, he had asked me that question a bazillion times in the last hour!?
"Hey Heero, Duo you have 15 minutes so go ahead get into your cars." Yelled a man with brown eyes, brown hair with long bangs on one side of his head, wearing a blue turtle neck racer body suit and a light blue helmet.
"Thanks Trowa, ain?t you going to race too?" Asked the man with the long braid, which was known as Duo. ?Whoopee! I get to finally race in the big leagues!?
"No, only you, Heero, and Wufei would be racing in the first race." Answered Trowa. "Quatre and I would be racing in the race after you guys."
"Oh okay, why don?t you and Quatre meet me, Heero, and wolf boy at the finish line? Yeah know we would probably win one of the top 5 of this race!" Duo laughed. Heero started to walk to his car, Duo went to keep up with him and Trowa yelled to him, "Okay we will meet ya at the finish line!" Duo just waved, which meant he said okay.
Heero and Duo got into their vehicles, which were also in the front of the starting line. They looked over all the other vehicles and their challengers.
"Hey Heero, good luck!" Duo yelled with thumbs up. ?Oh boy, the race is going to start!?
Heero just simply smirked at Duo and then concentrated on the road ahead of him. ?Man, I got to win,?
"Okay everyone get ready for the race to begin!" The load speaker bombed, "Ready!"
All the racers began to switch their engines on and switches.
"Get set!"
All racers were determined to win.
"Get set????????????GO!
All the racers furiously race to the road and smoothly turned onto the curved wall to the first turn.
?Oh my god?I?m still racing away from my past and fears.? Relena thought. She was on her second lap. She smoothly turned in a very fast speed. She was almost on the edge of the curve where it was between the fence and the edge of the curve.
"WOW people! Look at that! Number 06 almost hit the fence of the curve in great velocity, and it looks to me that, that racer has no problem with that! That was a smooth one! Oh my god, look! She has past cars #02 and #05 already with that smooth turn!" The crowd gone wild when they saw Relena ?s smooth turn.
Wufei quickly reacted when he saw #06 pasted him so quickly. Wufei was furious that a car has already past him! ?That son of a bitch! That was so injustice!?
?Whoever that was, he?s pretty good,? thought Duo as he saw #06 past him. ?Heero better watch out or that guy would past him and try to win the race.?
Soon enough Heero, Duo, Wufei, Relena, and 7 others were on their last lap. Relena switched her gear to 4 and soon enough caught beside Heero. ?Good, this guy is pretty tough,? Relena thought. She tried to go ahead of Heero, but Heero wouldn?t let her. Each time she try to go ahead of him, he races up ahead more until he was a little bit ahead of her, but still at her side.
?I got get ahead of him and win!? Relena screamed in her head. The thought of losing makes her remember what have her father did to her. ?This is his fault! He the one who makes me feel this way! Guilt I tell you, guilt!? She felt tears slide down he cheeks.
"I will always hate you father!" Relena yelled out loud with sorrow.
Heero somehow heard what Relena said and with those words he move his hand. But with that startled movement of his hand, Heero accidentally switched to gear 1. His car slows up with that movement, which gave Relena time to go ahead. Heero switched his gear back to 4 and tried to catch up, but it was too late; Relena crossed the finish line. He next, crossed finish line, and then Duo, Wufei, and this other racer named Scott.
"Everyone here are the top five! First it was #06, then #01, next #02, then #5, and #69! Congratulations to those top 5 in this race and congrats to #06 who finished first!"
~
Heero, Duo, Wufei, Relena, and all the other racers slowed their cars down to a finishing stop. Heero and Duo were the first ones to come out and went to search for Trowa and Quatre, and tried avoiding the reporters and fans. Wufei slowly came out and also tried to avoid the fans and reporters, but that didn?t work, he was too late.
"Mr. Chang sir! How do you feel being one of the top 5 in this race?" asked a reporter.
"Sir! Sir! Can I have your autograph?" yelled a fan.
"I love you Wufei!" yelled a mob of girls.
All kinds of questions buzzed around Wufei?s head. He became arrogated and yelled, "Get away you idiotic people! Go away!" Soon enough reporters and crazy fans chased him around the arena. He pulled out his sword but nobody cared that he had one, they just kept running toward him.
"Go Fuman!" yelled Duo with an ear to ear smile. The Duo turned to Heero and asked, "Hey Heero do you know who is that guy who beat you to the finish line?"
"I do not know who the hell he is, but I want to find out who he is." Heero was tensed that someone had finally beaten him. Even though it is his first time in the NASCAR World Wide Race, but nobody had beaten him in other competitions. His eyes were glued to the racecar #06. He waited and waited for the driver to come out. Then the car door opened but he couldn?t get a glimpsed at the guy since he was crowded with reporters and fans.
"Why don?t you look at that? Poor guy, surrounded by those crazed up peeps." Duo said with his head shaking side to side. ?Fame, uh isn?t that worth it.?
Suddenly the fans and reporters flew away and went to the other racers. ?Why did those people go away from that guy? Is he deformed or something?? Heero thought. All of the sudden Duo asked one of the workers of the arena, "Hey why did those people flew from #06?"
"Man you don?t know Reli? Where are you guys from? Europe? That gal would kick your ass if you mess with that driver! Once that dude or should I say gal kick five reporters? asses man, because they couldn?t stop bothering her!" The worker shook his head and walked away mumbling people these days don?t get the picture that well.
"What is that guy talking about? Did he say gal? Maybe he meant that guy was gay or something!" Duo was very confused. His head was filled with words that say "gals", "dude", and "gay".
"Oh you?re way wrong Duo, #06 is a woman." Quatre said suddenly just popped up to them.
"How do you know #06 is a woman?" Duo asked. ?Why do everyone find out about things before me all the time??
"Well why don?t you looked at her for yourself." Trowa said with a smirk.
"Where? Where is that- whoa look at that hot chick ca roo!" Duo?s eyes popped of their sockets out when he saw Relena coming their way.
"Hey Heero here is that mysterious #06!" Duo nudged Heero in the stomach.
"What!? Who is #0-" Heero was speechless when he saw Relena in front of him. ?Damn look at her sexy body, she looks like a pretty vixen to me. Oh my god who is she? Heero! You?re so stupid! She?s the one who beaten you!?
"You #01?" she asked. Relena scanned Heero head to toe. ?Well what do we have here? This guy is a major hunk!?
"Yeah, who wants to know?" Heero replied sharply.
"Well I wanted to meet the guy who I beaten to the f. line and who messed up big time." Relena smirked when Heero?s mouth twitched.
"Beginners luck." He said flatly.
"Nah ah, I?m no beginner. It was skill #01." Relena?s smirk became to a thin smile.
"My name ain?t #01, it?s Heero, Heero Yuy." Heero wondered where the hell she came from.
"And so my name is Reli Craftlian." Relena said, "Oh and tell your friend there to pick up his jaw off the floor because it can become stuck that way." She meant to Duo since he was staring at her with his mouth open.
"Well buh bye hot stuff." With that comment Heero slightly blushed while she walked away to the locker room.
"That is one cute, sassy, good looking, sexy, oh I can go on! You are one lucky guy Heero!" Duo laughed while Heero gave him a death glare to shut him up.
"Heero, I guess you have an opponent now!" Laughed Quatre. ?I can?t believe of all these years finally someone beaten Heero, but Duo don?t count cause he also jacks up Heero?s car so he could win.? ?Oh oh here comes Wufei with his?uh what happened to his sword? It looks to me he has a wrench with him.? Thought Quatre.
Wufei seemed very frustrated and mad. ?Oh those fucking people wouldn?t leave me alone! Don?t they know when I guy doesn?t want to be bothered? Man I got get that kid who took my damn sword!?
"Hey Wufie!" chirped Duo.
"Shut up you little cockatoo." Seethed Wufei.
"What your problem? Being beaten by a woman?" Duo laughed of thought that Wufei freaked out #06 was a woman.
"What do you mean beaten by a woman?" Wufei asked.
"He means that you have been beaten by Reli Craftlain." Relena smirked. Relena just suddenly showed up in a baby blue tee with the words I Love Racing in gold glitter and frayed jean shorts.
"Who are you?" Wufei snapped. ?Who the hell does she think she is??
"I?m racer #06." She replied.
"Give me proof then Missy!" Wufei splattered.
"Look up there!" Relena said and pointed to the screen up above the benches. The screen showed Relena picture, name, racer #, and status.
"That can not be!" Wufei wanted so bad to bite the woman?s head off.
"So there?s my proof." Relena smiled. ?This guy is fun toying with.?
"No way! You?re a woman! I can?t be beaten by a woman!" Yelled an angry Wufei.
"Hey do want to come eat with us for lunch at the Hard Rock Caf??" asked Duo, eyeing her figure again.
"What are you thinking baka? She?s an enemy!" Wufei screamed at Duo?s face.
"She?s just a woman Wufei, I mean a skilled racer." Murmured Duo.
"Uh sure," Relena slightly reddened. It was the first time she went out to eat with people except her with her father and his friends.
"Okay so meet us there at 2:00 okay?" Duo said with a cheery smile.
"Uh okay," Relena smiled back at Duo. ?Wow, I didn?t think I?d never make any friends or have lunch with.? "Well see yeah," Relena cheered up. She walks to her motorcycle and drove away. The guys watch her ride away to the freeway out of the arena.
"Whoa, I didn?t know she was a biker chick also!" Duo was amazed that Relena could ride a Harley.
"Well she is just another weakling, watch in the next race that she and I are in I will beat the shit out of her!" fumed Wufei.
"Man, and she is pretty good, you better watch Heero, she might beat you again." Trowa added.
"Hn, like I said, she probably had beginners? luck." Heero muttered. Everyone was just quiet for a minute until Duo said, "Well Trowa, Quatre don?t you guys race next?"
"Yeah," answer Quatre and Trowa answered in unison.
"Hey you guys know Reli?" asked a guy in white and yellow racer suit. All the guys switched their gazes to him.
"Why do you wanna know?" Asked Heero, sounding suspicious.
"Well I just saw you guys talking to her, and? well actually she doesn?t talk to anybody and usually if you bother her she?d kick your ass." The guy shrugged. "Oh and I?m the 5th of the top 5 in the same race that I raced with some of yeah. My name is Scott Poldet."
"Oh, well she?s just going out to lunch with us and that?s all unless she wants a fight with us." Duo confessed.
"Oh," Scott smiled wickedly. "Do you guys know her well?"
"No, we just met her." Quatre said eyeing Scott suspiciously.
"Okay, I just be careful around her, she not all she seems to be." He coughed out, still with the wicked smile on his face.
"What do you mean?" Heero questioned him.
"Never mind, just remember what I said." Scott said flatly and walked away from the group.
"What do you mean?! What do you know about Reli that we have to be careful around her cause of it?" Duo yelled after him. ?Who are you? What do you mean?? Duo was sort confused of what Scott said to them.
"Well I got to go to my racecar guys," said Trowa, as he rushed to his racecar.
"Me too, see yeah!" Quatre also rushed to his racecar.
"Heero do get what Scott told us?" asked Duo.
"I have no clue but I?m going to find out." Heero seethed. ?Who are you Reli??
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
Relena parked her Harley in the NASCAR Hotel parking garage and went into the elevator to level R4. She steps out the elevator and walked to her hotel room. She enters her cardkey and opened her door. ?Let?s see here, what should I wear?? She flop opened her suitcase and rumbled into it to find a perfect outfit for the lunch date. Soon enough she throws most of her clothing up in the air since she just can?t find one perfect outfit to wear. ?Should I wear this?? ?Or maybe that.? ?No this.? ?Nah, man! I can?t seem to find the perfect outfit!? She looked, tried on, on, and finally she finally settled with Paris Blues dark denim flared jeans with graffiti words on it and a skimpy white tank top that showed her mid drift. She smeared on some light gold eye shadow, a swept of sugar plum blush, glossed her lips with tender heart lipgloss, and had her hair down with hair sprayed all over it.
After that, she looked at herself in the mirror. ?Hm, pretty good Relena Darlian Peacecraft.? Then she started thinking about her past? and her father. ?I know father will never ever let me go out with anybody. He wouldn?t even let me go to school. All my life inside the Peacecraft mansion, home schooling, I don?t even have any friends before! I always envy those girls on TV, who had boyfriends, friends, cool clothes, popularity, go to school, and a normal happy life. While wither down in the mansion doing nothing but wishing that my dad was dead or murdered. He deserves to be dead and to hell for what he has done. Even though I had ran away from home 10 years ago, still I know my father and his men are still looking for me all these years. He wants the tape, the proof I need to prove that I?m not guilty, and that his the one who? ah if only I can find it, I hid the tape but I don?t remember where I stashed it. He wants me so I can?t go find the tape and turn him in. But I don?t know what to do now, he has a lot of power, cause of his business company, how can I compete with that without the tape? Well, I don?t think he remembers what I look like, I was 10 when he last saw me. Man I?m tired, what time is it?? She took a glance at her watch and it was 1:30. ?Oh I guess I could take a quick nap, I?ll just sleep here in the comfy cou- z-z-z-z-? Relena just plopped into the couch and was fast asleep.
z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-
2:00
The guys went into the Hard Rock Caf? and scanned everyone to see if Reli was around. But they can?t find Reli anywhere, so they got a table with an extra seat for Reli. They all sat down and asked the waitress to have 6 menus, one for Reli.
"Hey guys, maybe she?s late, yeah know." Said Duo.
"Probably," huffed Wufei.
"Why don?t we order first?" suggested Quatre.
"I guess." Duo shrugged. So all the guys ordered their food and waited for Reli or should I say Relena.
!*!
Relena finally woken up, ?Uh, what time is it?? She glanced at her watch and it read 2:13. ?Ah shit!? Relena slipped on her Hawaiian sandals and ran out to the parking garage to her motorcycle. She starts the engine and races out the garage to the road to Hard Rock Caf?. ?Ah man I can?t believe I?m late!? She drives over the limit and sped between cars and finally got to the restaurant. She parked it quickly and jammed into the restaurant. Everyone heard her race in and was staring at her as if she was a freak of nature. ?Great,? she thought. Her hair was kind of messed up by the wind and speeding.
"Hey Reli! Over here!" Yelled Duo. Relena turned to where he was and straighten up herself and walked to their table.
"Hi! Sorry that I was late." She breathed out, and plopped into her seat between Heero and Duo.
"We already ordered but are food haven?t came out yet so go ahead and order." Trowa explained.
"Okay, uh." She scanned the menu. ?Boy, I don?t even know what to order.?
"Uh waitress!" Relena exclaimed.
"Yes?" Said an Asian waitress with a Chinese accent.
"I?ll have the BLT, and Long Island tea please." Relena chirped and handed the waitress her menu.
"Okay miss," replied the waitress and off she went.
"So guys, uh, who won in the second race?" She asked them.
"Well, I won first, second was Quatre, then this guy Chris Plum, next Jonathan Barter, and lastly Frank Sprit." Trowa replied. "It was also hard to win first cause Quatre has been practicing and is almost better than me now." He laughed.
"Well Trowa, you should practice racing more like me!" laughed Quatre back.
"So Reli, where are you from?" asked Heero with his serious expression. ?Well let see who you really are Reli.?
"Uh, actually from here in around Cincinnati, OH." She lied. ?Oh I?m such a bad liar.?
"Oh, well do you have any parents or relatives who live here with you?" Heero asked. ?Hn??
"No, I don?t have any parents, actually they kicked me out of their home when I was? 16." She lied again. ?I hope I can pull this act off.?
"Oh really, so what hotel are you staying in?" Asked Duo. ?I wonder why Heero wants to know where she lives and if she has parents living with her or not.?
"At the NASCAR Hotel Resort." She said truthfully.
"Oh we?re staying there too!" Duo chirped. "What a coincidence!"
"Actually Duo, mostly all racers stay at the NASCAR Hotel Resort you baka!" Wufei sharply added.
"So guys, where are you from?" Relena asked politely.
"We?re all from Hamilton, OH." Quatre replied with a smile.
"Oh, I guess that?s not that far from here," Relena said, "Uh do you guys have relatives and parents around here?"
"Orphan," Is all Heero could say said.
"Lives in NY." Trowa muttered.
"Lives in Mansfield." Quatre replied.
"China." Wufei snapped.
"Uh how should I say this um? orphan!" Duo stammered.
"Lucky for you guys who are orphans, I wish I was one." Relena muttered under her breath.
"What did you say Reli?" Heero perked. ?Did she say what I thought she said??
"Oh nothing," Relena blushed furiously. ?How could he have heard me??
Suddenly the Asian waitress again appeared with Relena?s and the guy?s food. She sets their plates and drinks in front of them and left.
"Mmmmm," Relena said and took a bite of her BLT.
"Yummy!" Duo yelled in joy and bit a big chunk of his sandwich.
"Hmm, hmm," muffled Quatre with his mouth full of salad.
"?" Trowa was silent (AN: Ah the silent one, don?t yeah think?)
"This is so good!" Duo said. *Slurp* He took a long sip from his drink and then back to his sandwich. *Crunch, Chew, Chew, Burp! *
"Stupid Baka." Wufei snared. "You have no respect Duo."
"Well look at you! Calling women weak! And saying anything that is not your way injustice!" Duo snapped back to Wufei.
"Oh yeah take this!" Wufei scoped up a hand full of mash potatoes, aimed at Duo?s face, and threw that gunk straight at Duo?s face where he targeted it. *thunk* Splat the mash potatoes on Duo?s face. Duo scrunched up his face and was very mad.
"Ark ah?well take a bite out of this!" Duo threw his piece of pie he ordered at Wufei and it landed plopped onto Wufei?s head.
"Ah you little mindless idiot!" Wufei grabbed Trowa?s fries with ketchup and blindly threw it at Duo. But the fries didn?t hit Duo instead hit Relena at the face.
?Great, on my first date out to lunch I get food thrown at my face.? Relena thought.
Everyone was silent, even the customers and waitresses stopped doing what they were doing. Relena just silently took her napkin, wiped her face, and slowly sat up off her seat. She picked up her glass of Long Island tea, walked over to Wufei and tipped the glass over his head and the tea slowly spilled into his head. She placed her glass down in front of Wufei and walked back to her seat and sat back down. "Now were even Wufie." Relena said with a smile. Wufei?s face was all scrunched up and waited for a minute or two and suddenly growled, "Duo you?re going to pay severely! You too, Reli." He then sat back down onto his seat and picked up his sandwich and started to eat his sandwich. Soon enough everyone just went back to what they were doing. The gang stayed there for 15 minutes and soon enough paid their bill and left the restaurant.
"Hey Reli where?s you motorcycle?" he asked.
"It right over here," she led them to her motorcycle.
Duo whistled, "Wow that?s a nice Harley!" Duo exclaimed.
"How long have you had it Reli?" asked Trowa.
"2 years, I used to had a bug but I didn?t like, anyway it?s all broken up so I saved up my money to by this baby!" Relena responded with another sweet smile.
"Hey why don?t you hang out with us Reli at our hotel room! We have the game twister, the movie American Pie and American Pie 2, we can order pizza later on, we can play poker, and we can even play hide-n-go-seek! We have 3 rooms that are connected! So what do you yeah say?" Duo asked Relena.
?Boy this guy seem very hyper all the time.? "Uh, if you guys want me to, I would." Relena replied shyly.
"Could she guys?" Duo asked the guys. ?Please, say yes, please saw yes, please!? These guys never fool around with me and I get lonely, except when Wufei gets annoyed when I bug him and he chases me around the hotel threatening that he would slice my braid with his sword.? Duo made his bottom lip stick out.
"Duo were not girls, so put your bottom lip back." Trowa rolled his eyes.
"Please guys?" Duo whined. ?Please, please,? Those words just keep on popping up in his mind, chanting it over and over.
"Okay," All the guys said and sighed.
"Cool!" Both Duo and Relena jump into joy. They started to skip happily to their vehicles (Relena and Duo), while they guys just follow them.
"Wait a minute, do you guys want to follow me or I follow you?" Relena asked nicely.
"Uh, we?ll follow you," replied Duo.
"?Kay," Relena replied excitedly. ?Wow! I?m finally invited over someone?s place to hang out.
So then the guys followed Relena to the NASCAR Hotel Resort and to the parking lot. They parked their vehicles side by side and got out of the car and motorcycle. They walked to the elevator and pressed H 101-201.
"So Relena, on what floor do you stay in?" Asked Quatre.
"On I 201-301, my room is I 210." Relena replied.
"Oh that?s pretty close to the elevator huh?" Asked a still kind of hyperish Duo.
"I guess, I just don?t really pay attention where my room is close to that?s all." Relena sighed. ?Why would that matter??
*Ding!* dinged the elevator.
"Were here! Were here!" Screamed Duo and as soon the elevator doors open Duo just raced out the door and off to the guys? hotel room.
Everyone else just walked to the rooms calmly. ?Boy I wonder if Duo is like this all the time?? she thought.
"Uh Heero?" Relena called sweetly. Once Heero heard her call his name his swung to her and answered, "Yeah?"
"Uh, is Duo always like this?" she asked.
::sweatdrops:::
"Uh sometimes," Heero laughed. He gave her a smirk and when they got to the door of the hotel room, he kindly opened the door for her. Then he mentally slaps his face, ?What are you thinking Heero! She is the enemy! Well a sexy one but she has beaten you! Also there is something about her that is strange and it looks to me that she?s hiding something.?
Chapter 2:
"So people, what do you want to do now?" asked an excited Duo with ear to ear grin.
Nobody said anything. Just plain old silence, until Relena suggested," How about Truth or Dare?"
A couple of "Yeah!"s, "Alright"s, and "Okay"s answered that they will play truth or dare. They all gathered to a circle and they stated all the rules.
"No yaoi! And there are 3 consequences to chose from if you refuse to do the dare. Okay who wants to go first?" Duo asked. ?Finally! Some real fun!? Duo grinned.
"I?ll go first!" exclaimed Quatre. "Um, Duo! Truth or dare?"
?Hmmm? "Eh, truth!" Duo had his worried expression on his face.
"Okay! Is it true that you sleep in your thong to sleep?" Quatre grinned.
"HEY! HOW DID YOU KNOW! WELL TO TELL YOU THE TRUTH I SOMETIMES DON?T EVEN WEAR ANYTHING TO SLEEP!" Duo screamed. Then he immediately shut up because he remembered that Reli was with them. Her face was red as a tomato!
"Uh its okay Duo! Uh I can handle with that. I?m just shocked that you eh wear a thong to sleep? well lets continue!" Relena said.
"Okay! Who is my victim?" Duo scanned everyone for a victim. He stops a Relena. ?Uh oh!? Relena thought. "Hehe, Reli! Truth or Dare or Double Dare?" Duo had his evil smile plastered on his cheery face.
"Uh Duo there is no Double Dare!" Relena argued.
"Well now there is!" Duo wheezed back.
"Oh okay anyway I pick dare." Relena muttered. ?Please, let the dare be a cinch!?
"Oh yeah I been wanting for this one! I dare you to strip down to your bra and panties!" Duo eyes sparked up.
?Well that?s easy, at least I don?t have to give a guy a lap dance or a kiss. Oh no! I?m wearing a thong today! Damn it!? she thought. ?Why, why, why!?
"Uh, bit I?m wearing thong!" she exclaimed. ?Please give a consequence!?
"Good! Also this dare won?t have any consequences!" Duo crossed his arms.
"But I don?t want to do the dare! Can?t you give me any consequences?" Relena begged.
"Okay you can choose one consequence from these three: 1. Wear a teddie. 2. Let me ride your Harley. And 3. Give us a lap dance." Duo felt proud of himself.
?He?1. No I hate those whore type teddies?2?NO ONE RIDES MY HARLEY!?3?lapdance?HELL NO!?it has to be 2 or 1?? Relena thought real hard to make her decision. Duo in the other hand is very inpatient, the thing is he wants to ride her Harley, also he want a lap dance, but what he really wants is that Reli would make her decision now! He is really fed up with Reli?s slowness and yelled, "Why don?t you make up your mind already?!" He stood up and looked down at Reli.
?Uh, I guess I?ll choose 2.? "Okay Duo I?ll let you ride my Harley." Relena pouted with a frown. Duo jumps up and dances around the room chanting Harley. "Anyway, I pick Heero, truth or dare?" Relena grinned.
"Truth." Heero responded. "I wonder what question she?s going to ask me." Thought Heero.
"Okay, do you have a girlfriend?" she asked. ?Stupid Relena, why can?t you ask him a harder question!? she thought.
"No," Heero said flatly. "Oh and I pick you Reli. Truth or dare?" Heero focused his eyes at Relena.
"Truth" Relena answered. But then she wished she chose dare. ?Man, what if he asks me a question about my past!? Relena began to worry.
?Okay, lets see if you could answer this,? Heero thought. "Do you know who Scott Poldet is?" He asked.
Relena tried to remember if she knew Scott Poldet. ?Scott Poldet, Scott Poldet??
She suddenly remembers who Scott Poldet was! ?Daddy?s friend?s son! But it can?t be! How could he be here? No how could Heero Know Scott Poldet is?? She suddenly got a flash back.
(Flash back)
A 9 year old Relena sitting down at the dining table eating her potatoes, while her father was talking to this man younger than her father. Her father kept pointing at her while he talked with the young man. Then she noticed that there was a young boy about her age sitting next to the man Daddy was talking too. The man leaned over to the boy and whispered something. The boy?s eyes flashed toward Relena. The boy smirked, the man said, "Scott why don?t you go play with Relena?"
Scott replied, "Sure father, sure." Scott walked over to Relena and introduced himself.
"Hi I?m Scott, Scott Poldet." He said with the same smile on his face.
"I?m, Relena." Relena said timidly. She was afraid of Scott, for somehow his smile reminds her of the smile when her father is with her mom.
"Let?s go to your room okay? I wanna see it." Scott smiled again. He just grabbed her arm and dragged Relena to her room. Somehow he knew where it was. He opened the door to a glamorous, girly type room. He pushed her in and asked her, "Do you know how to play bad guys and victims?"
Relena didn?t know what such a game would concern bad guys and victims, it sounded like a stupid game, a game that was made up. "I don?t know how to play that game." Relena sounded very scared and hoping that Scott would just leave her alone.
"Well I?ll teach you." Scott ran over to her and pinned her down with her body. Relena?s eyes widened. "What are you doing!" she exclaimed but then her mouth was stuffed with a chunk of cloth. Scott whispered, "This is when the bad guy murders his victim." He then stashed out her knife and slowly brings it down to her stomach. Relena?s eyes started to bring out tears and begged Scott to stop. But at that moment, Scott?s father called Scott that they had to go home. Scott quickly slashed Relena?s stomach, leaving a not so deep cut across her stomach. Scott yelled Okay to his father and told Relena if she told anyone about this, he would kill her. He walked out of the room and left.
(End of flash back)
Relena quickly jumped at Heero and pinned him down to the floor. He was surprised of what she did and he couldn?t really get up because she was pressing a lot of her weight onto his legs. Relena sneered, "How do you know Scott Poldet?" Relena was furious, and is urgent to have her answer. "We just met him at the arena, he was one of the top five when you raced him!" Duo exclaimed trying to pull Relena off Heero. "Like what Duo said," Heero coughed out. Relena couldn?t take that as an answer. Heero grabbed her waist and tried to prey her off. ?Could Heero and the others actually are working undercover for my dad? But that can?t be! I just, why? Could they actually pretend to like me and be my friend?? Tears stream down her face, she felt confused. She just can?t bare making new friends that were just using her, and pretending to be her friend. She felt betrayed even though she doesn?t know for sure if Heero and the others are actually working for her fathering or something like that.
Heero doesn?t have a clue of Reli?s actions. He wonders why she is so angry and does she actually know this Scott Poldet? Is he actually her ex boyfriend or something?
Relena?s nails were digging into his skin and her weight on his legs were awfully pain full. Duo and the others are wondering what?s going and why Reli is acting this way. Duo just unconsciously grabbed Reli?s neck and twisted it, not so hard, but enough to knock her out for awhile. Relena slowly let go of Heero and laid down on him. Heero felt relieved that her nails let go his skin. He then looked at Reli and was surprised that she was knocked out.
"What did you do Duo?" Heero growled. Heero scoped Relena onto his lap and look Duo at the eye.
"Heero I just knocked her out! I didn?t kill or anything but that!" Duo sighed, regretting and not regretting of what he had done.
"Heero, do you know why she?um?attacked you?" asked Quatre. "Do you think she?d be okay?"
"I think she will Quatre," Trowa answered. Trowa stared at Heero as Heero carried Reli to his bed and laid her down. Heero laid the comforter onto her body to keep her warm. He looked back at the guys and said, "I?ll look after her, just in case if she wakes up and run away or something. I want to know what she?s hiding and so you guys can do whatever you want to do. Okay?"
"Yes," the guys answered in unison and so then they left Heero with Reli and went to the other two rooms.
Chapter 3:
No, father! You can?t! How could you? Why? Why mom? Why couldn?t you take me away instead?? Relena kept on having flashbacks of her past over and over in her dreams. She started to twist and turn and Heero tried to calm her down by putting a wet cool cloth over her forehead. ?I wonder what she?s dreaming about causes her to react like that.? Heero thought. Once in a while he feeds her some water, even though she isn?t a wake.
Heero gazed at her beautiful face, a face of an angel but hints of a dark and bad side. As she moves, she revealed some of her midriff, which makes Heero pretty uncomfortable. But then he notices that her tank top is stained with some skin-colored liquid. With all his curiosity in his mind, he lifted up her tank top a little and saw that her stomach was covered with that substance. He tries to smear it off her stomach to see what it is hiding. As he smears off the substance her begins to reveal a pink huge scar. He leans very close to her stomach to see the scar, which seems that it had been there for a long time. His face was very close to her stomach as he examines the scar and run his fingers around it.
Suddenly he felt Relena?s thigh raised and slammed onto his neck, pinning his head to her stomach. Her right leg was is up over her shoulder and tries to suffocate Heero but it didn?t work as well as she thought it would. ?Sleeping beast has awaken?? thought Heero.
"What the hell were you doing? Feeling my body while I?m knocked out? You sick minded pervert!" She sneered. She throws a fit as she tries to move her hands but somehow they would budge! ?What did he do to me?? she thought.
"Don?t try moving your arms or hands cause their handcuffed and I am the only one who has the key. So there you wouldn?t run away." Heero said in a calm voice and grabbed Relena?s leg and pulled it down to the bed and stood up gazing at Relena. ?Boy does Reli looked funny when she?s mad.? Heero chuckled at the sight in front of him. "Look here, I was only examining your stomach which covered a hug pink scar with pancake makeup."
"Well it?s not pancake make-up! Its body foundation." Relena quipped. Then she looks at him straight in the eye and asked with a weak voice, "I?I?m?I?m I still uh?um a virgin?"
Heero couldn?t do but chuckled out loud. ?She thinks I raped her? Why would I do that? I mean I would never take an advantage of a woman or raped one! I mean I never did really dated anyone or ever had sex with one. Like her, I still a virgin too!? Heero thought. Relena glared the daggers out of him and yelled, " What the hell is funny? Did you or did not raped me?"
"Look, I didn?t rape you, heck I?m still a virgin myself." He confessed. ?I can?t believe I told her that I was a virgin!? Heero mentally bitched slapped himself.
?Wow! I mean I thought he would already have sex with a bunch or a few women already! I mean he is hottie and a cutie pie but a virgin too? Whoa you don?t meet a guy like that very often.? Relena thought. "So, um?" Relena tried to think of something to say, "WELL AIN?T YOU GOING TO UNHANDCUFF ME!" she yelled.
"Nope, not yet. If I do you probably run away or attack me again." He answered. He walked to the mini kitchen, which was near the front door, and took a bowl of rice with teriyaki meat. He walked back to the bed and placed the bowl on her lap. He waited for Reli to pick up the bowl and eat. But she wouldn?t budge. He looks at her with confusing and asked, " Aren?t you going to eat anything?"
Relena would have slapped him by now but answered, "Baka! My hands are handcuffed remember?" Heero blushed but then quickly grabbed the bowl and spooned out some of the rice out and mumbled, "I knew that," He tries to put the spoon into her mouth but she refuse to open her mouth and turned her head away. ?She is so childish,? he thought. He tries a couple of times more but she kept turning away and refusing to open her mouth. Heero was fed up with this childish behavior and had an idea. He put the end of the spoon into his mouth and took her face with his two hands. Relena glared at his, wondering what his intending to do now. He used his hands to prey open her mouth and bends over. He then moves his mouth to hers and dumped the rice into her mouth from the spoon. He finally removed his hands and watches her munch on the rice with a surprised expression.
?What the hell did he just do? I mean that was a surprising way to feed someone! Oh I?m so dumb! He?s just toying with me! And I haven?t asked him how he knew that bastard Scott.? Relena thought while munching on her rice. All she could think of now is Heero. She begins to feel uneasy that Heero was watching her like a hawk. ?And I ain?t moving anywhere anyway with my hands handcuffed.?
"Do you want more? Or do I have to do that again?" Heero asked with a smirk. Relena?s eye caught that smirk of his as her heart raced on. ?He does have a cute way of smirking.? She thought. Heero spooned another chunk of rice but then Relena got an idea and kicked the bowl out of Heero?s hands and scurried off the bed. ?Got ya!? Relena laughed and raced to the door, but was stopped by Heero, which he grabbed her legs under her.
"Oh no you?re not getting away Reli Craftlain!" He yelled. He tries to drag her back to the bed to tie her feet also but Relena kicked his face. "OW!" Heero growled. Relena tried to crawl away from Heero as fast as she can be Heero jump on top of her. Relena tried to push him off but he?s way to heavy. So they wrestled each other over and over. They started hitting each other, throwing punches, and pulling each other?s hair. Relena finally got on top of him and pulled his hair with her teeth, giving him pain. (A.N.: Remember her hands are handcuffed.) Heero quickly grabbed her hair, also giving her a piece of him mind.
"You better let go Reli or else!" Heero threatened Relena. ?Man does she have to pull so hard with her teeth? Soon enough I?ll be bald cause of her!? Heero grunted in pain.
"No way Heero!" Relena fired back at Heero. ?Let?s see what?s he?s going to do about it.?
"Fine have it your way!" Heero raised one of his hands and tickled Relena?s stomach. ?Got ya! Or is she not ticklish??
"NO! NO! NO! AH-ha-ha-ha STOP?oof-ah-ha ha ha ha ha ha-please-ha ha ha ha stop! Ha ha ha ha ha!" Relena begged with laughter. Heero continued to torture her with his fingers. (A.N.: I know that sounds pretty perverted but put away your dirty thoughts people! Keep them to your selves!)
Then other guys soon heard Relena?s laughter and barged into the room thinking that something is wrong. Instead their worried expressions changed into ear to ear smiles. They just watch the couple torture each other. Heero begins to feel a presence of his friends and stopped tickling Relena. Relena?s laughter died down and she then felt the presence of the others. She tries to stand up but she lost her balance. Luckily Heero caught her before she fell faced down to the floor. Relena?s faced is now flushed of crimson pink. Heero too had a little pink blush on his face too. All the guys can do is just laugh!
"Now that?s a perfect couple in front of us!" Duo laughed. Both Heero and Relena blushed even redder and got off of each other?s arms. Both of them glared at the guys but that didn?t die down the laughter.
"Hey Reli and Heero what have you guys been doing in here?" Quatre laughed out load.
"Nothing! Now can someone takes these handcuffs off of me?" Relena snapped. She getting pretty annoyed now and wants these handcuffs off of her.
"Nope. Not until you answer all me questions," Heero answered. ?Now I could find out more about this Reli Craftlain.?
Relena gulps. ?Uh oh, NOBODY IS SUPPOSED TO KNOW ABOUT MY PAST!? Relena began to worry and hopes that she?d be able to keep her mouth shut.
Chapter 4:
There was silence in the room as Heero drag Relena to a chair and tied her to it. He made sure that he also tied up her feet to the chair. For some reason Relena was cool with that and even she didn?t struggle or try to attack Heero. She just stared blankly at the door, thinking away on what she should tell them about her past or lie about it. But the thing is, Scott kept popping into her mind. Shouldn?t Scott already recognize her at the race? Or did he didn?t know that her new identity is Reli Craftlain? Little does she know, Scott actually now that she is Reli Craftlain and that she is with these guys. Remember Scott did tell the guys that they should be careful around Reli Craftlain. Relena just can?t believe she has been found. The silence in the room was broken by Quatre?s cell phone.
Quatre swiped out his cell phone and answered, ?Hello?? While Quatre talk on his phone Duo wanted to ask Reli something and asked, ?Um how do you know Scott, Reli??
Relena?s eyes glared when she heard his name. ?I know him ever?? she paused. If you look into her eyes you can see a hints of a flame and somehow you could see Scott in her eyes. ?I know him ever since I was 9.? She sighed and wished she never told them that even though it doesn?t make sense why she hates him. Duo just couldn?t have that as an answer. He asked, ?Why do you hate him? Reli you could trust us!? Duo pleaded, he just couldn?t have anyone as a friend who doesn?t trust him.
Relena thought about what Duo asked and answered coldly, ?I can?t trust anyone, but I could not make any acceptations. Sorry Duo, and all you, I just can?t! I don?t think I could trust anyone anymore ever since I was 10!? Relena felt like bursting into tears but she pulled those tears back. She feels she should be tough and strong; like her mother. She just continued, ?Look all you need to know is that I hate Scott and wish he burns to hell. You guys just don?t understand how much it hurts to be betrayed by your own father! It hurts a lot. You would never understand, how to live on the streets at a young age! How to survive in the streets is hard, really hard. It took me years to live a normal life. Earning money is the hardest also, next to finding a home! Watch if you were in my life before, I sure it would be living hell.? The guys were stunned, even Quatre who is still talking on the cell phone. Relena stared at each one of them and stopped at Heero. She stared at him the longest and then took her attention back to the door. Quatre got off the cell phone and announced, ?Guys, we have a race soon, tomorrow at 12 pm for Heero and me. Trowa, you?re race is going to be at 3pm. Wufei and Duo, you?re race will start at 6 pm. You guys, we have to meet our sponsor Mr. Darlain Peacecraft tomorrow morning at 10:30 am. He says_? Quatre was interrupted by Relena who broke two legs of the chair. She head was down and her hands were balled into fists. Everyone stared at her, waiting what she is going to say or do. She weakly whispered, ?I knew it. I knew it!? Her whispers became load and soon enough she was yelling. ?I knew it, you guys are spies, frauds. Pretending to be my friend. You guys will turn me in! I know you will. Heero I thought you and the guys weren?t, I thought you guys wanted to be my friend. My life will always be a misery. All I want is a normal life. Racing is my only way to kept on living. I guess all I really did is run, racing away from my past, over and over. I hope you guys are happy with your reward after you turn me in. But I swear I?ll find my evidence that I could prove I?m not guilty.? Relena lifted her head up and tried to stand up.
?Could you please at least unhand cuff me? Or did my father told you to leave me helpless?? Relena snapped.
?Look, we don?t know what the hell you are talking about! All that gibberish you told us does not concern us! We are trying to help you and become your friends. Even I want to be your friend! So why don?t you trust us and tell us everything in order!? Wufei yelled at Reli.
?I can?t. I know you are lying!? Relena yelled back at Wufei. ?All I want is to be free, unhand cuffed, and back to my room!?
Heero slowly walked up to Relena and slapped her across the face. ?Look, we are trying to help you. If you want me to unhand cuffed you, you have to stay with us. I will go with you to your room to get your stuff. I didn?t mean to hurt you but I just can?t stand you blaming us that we are using you okay??
Relena face was red cause of that slap. She slowly nods her head. Heero takes a key out of his pocket and unhand cuffed her hands. Relena stood up with relief and stared at her hands. Then wiped out a gun pointing it at Heero. Everyone froze.
?Don?t make me use it Heero. I never had killed anyone and never meant to kill anyone but at this day, I?m making an acceptance.? She whispered. Heero was surprised that she has a gun and hopes she would not shot him.
?Reli don?t do this.? He whispered back softly. A couple of minutes pass by, and then Relena turn and shot the door. Everyone got surprised and jumped.
?Get in here right now! Whoever you are!? Relena snapped. Whoever was on the other side of the door, opened the door and stepped inside. It was the one and only Scott Poldet. He smiled at Relena. Relena gripped on the gun tightened. Her eyes pieced right through Scott.
?Reli that glare of yours is pathetic. Or should I say Relena.? Scott walked closer to Relena.
?Don?t move or I?ll shoot Scott. I swear, I?ll kill if you come a step closer.? She snapped.
?Relena, Relena. Poor you, you still remember that scar I gave you? You know you could never kill anyone. You know you still look the same to me. Cute. Beautiful. And yet breathtaking. Those features make me want you. Why are you here now? Racing is not your thing. Yet you are still scared ever since you were 9.? Scott smiled again as Relena?s eyes starts twitching.
?What do you want from her? What has she ever done to you?? Duo yelled at Scott. Scott wiped out his gun and pointed it at Duo.
?Shut up. Or else I?ll kill you. This is between me and her.? Scott said. He moves the gun toward Relena. ?You know why your father is looking for you. Tomorrow, 11am, that is the time you race against me. Your father will be there. If you refuse,? he presses the gun at her neck and moves it down, circling her breast and stops at her heart. ?We?ll kill your little friends and you. Oh ya bring the tape.? Heero?s blood boil when Scott circled his gun around Relena?s breast. Heero walked over to Relena and stood by her side and said, ?You kept your hands off her Scott!?
Scott eyed Heero and said, ?You stay away Jap. You and your little friends don?t know what you are dealing with. I bet Relena wouldn?t want you hurt or any of you either.?
Scott gave one last look at Relena and left. Relena watched him go and slammed her fist to the wall, cracking the wall. She was taking deep breaths and turned to Heero. She stared into his eyes and said, ? I don?t know if you guys are part of this or not but stay out of it. Please let me be and I guess I?ll stay with you guys for the time being.?
Duo walked over to Relena and asked, ? Who are you? Really what is your real name?? Relena backed away a little and answered, ?All you need to know that is my first name is not Reli, yet it is Relena.?
Wufei, Trowa and Quatre walked to them and Trowa asked, ? Do you want to get your stuff from your room right now?? Relena nodded and lead the way.
Chapter 5:
As they walked to the elevator, Relena kept going up way ahead of them as if she is avoiding them. When she reached the elevator, she presses the down button. The door opens; she goes in, without bothering pressing the wait button. Heero immediately signal the guys to hurry and ran into the elevator. Relena wouldn?t even look at them; she just stared down to the floor. She shuffles her feet a little, waiting for her floor.
*Ding* The elevator door opened and Relena was the first to get out. The guys followed her; they turned left and passed 9 doors until they reached the tenth door. Relena reached into her back pocket and took out a cardkey. She slid the card into the slit and the door opened. Her room was a mess. Her clothes were thrown everywhere, bed sheets on the floor; pillows ripped open, drawers drawled out, and everything in her hotel room was tampered with. Relena just stood there looking at her room. ?I know he did this, he was looking for the tape.? Relena thought. She immediately ran to her suitcase and searched for something in a hidden pocket. Duo, Trowa, and Quatre looked around and surveyed the damage of Relena?s things and the hotel?s. Wufei saw something in the restroom that caught his eye and went to it. Heero, with curiosity, seem to be watching Relena, to see what she is looking for. Relena opened a hidden pocket on the bottom of the suitcase and unzipped the pocket. What could be scene inside the pocket were really dangerous weapons. She reached in and pulled out a knife, another knife but a pocketknife, 3 guns, a couple packages of bullets, and a bunch of $100?s. She reached in further and pulled a chain of keys. ?Yes he didn?t go through the hidden pocket! All my weapons, money, and keys are still here!? Relena thought. Heero?s eyes popped out when he saw her guns and knives, including also her money. Heero was about to ask Relena why she has all those weapons, but then Wufei interrupted him.
?Reli I?m mean Relena, come here right now!? Wufei called from the bathroom. As soon as Relena stood up and walked to the bathroom, the others immediately followed her. Once they were in the bathroom, they understood why Wufei called him in. On the mirror, written with Relena?s MAC lipstick in Tender, was a message. It said, ?Hello RDP. Happy with your life, dear? Guess what? It will end soon. I know you have the tape, but if you turn me in, I will surely seek vengeance.
If I go to jail, still Scott and my other men will go after you. You don?t want to hurt me, your father do you? So tomorrow, like what Scott said, race Scott at 11 am. Bring the tape. Also, all your little friends are not in it, so they better kept their nosy noses away from this!
Love,
You know who?
P.S.: This lipstick does not match your complexion.?
Relena was ready to kill her father now! ?How dare he busted into my hotel room and searched through my stuff, leaving a mess, without my permission!? The same feeling came back to her; betrayal, angst, and sorrow.
Relena silently whispered, ?Watch I?ll find away to complete my revenge for my mother, father.?
Heero heard what she said and was wondering who was her father and mother. Heero studied the message more closely. One thing that caught his attention was ?RDP?. He knows ?R? means Relena, but what does ?DP? mean? Heero wanted to ask Relena what it stands for but was smart enough not to ask. Heero wants to know Relena and learn more about her, but he has no idea that he has become attracted to Relena. Relena stared at the mirror, looking at her complexion. She stared at it for a minute and walked out.
Duo, with all his curiosity, followed Relena out the bathroom, and then soon everyone follows also. Duo watched Relena as she packed her stuff and grabbed everything she needed. Duo watched very closely when Relena place her weapons into her hidden pocket. Duo liked Relena?s gun that had her name in graved in it. Duo picked it up carefully not letting Relena see that he has it, he observed. What was in graved in the gun was ?Relena Darlian Peacecraft?. Duo?s eyes popped out of their sockets when he saw her last name. ?She, she, Rel- she is our sponsorship?s daughter!? Duo thought. Quickly, he placed the gun back where it was but he was too late, Relena saw him placed it down.
Relena looked at him, knowing that he know who she is. She grabbed his collar down, facing her face to his and sneered, ?Keep your little shitty mouth closed or else I?ll severely skin you!? Duo nodded willingly, not wanting to feel the pain from Relena. Relena loosened her grip of his collar and pushed him a side. Luckily none of the guys saw this scene.
Relena finished her packing and pulled out 4 $100?s and placed it on the counter of the dresser. Duo looked her weirdly, showing that he wants to know why she left $400 on the dresser. She told him that it was a tip and to pay all the damaged of the room.
Heero walked up to Relena and helped her carry her luggage. Relena watched him surpriseingly that he was actually carrying all her luggage. So anyway the guys followed Heero out of the room and to the elevator.
Chapter 6:
That night, everyone went to sleep, except Heero and Relena. Duo and Trowa slept in the third room (separate beds). Quatre and Wufei slept in the second room (separate beds once again!) But since the first room only had one king sized bed, since Heero slept alone before, now he has to share it with Relena. Relena didn't mind.
"Which side do you want to sleep on?" Heero asked. `Or should I have asked her if she would like to have the bed to herself and I could sleep on the floor? Damn it.'
But Relena just shrugged and took out something out of her luggage and went into the bathroom. Heero wondered what she was doing, but the sound of bristles of a toothbrush told him that she was getting ready for bed. Heero took a deep sigh and took off his shirt and pants, leaving him only in boxers. This was his usually attire for bedtime. Then Heero did some push-ups to strengthen his arms for tomorrow. He kept thinking about Scott and Relena. He wonders what Relena is hiding. Even though she told them a little about her past, but she is still hiding something, he could sense that. Heero was so catch up thinking about Relena that she already came out of the bathroom already. She was wearing short, checkered boxer shorts and a thin white tank top. She was staring at Heero's muscular figure and what else, his butt.
`He really nice ass.' Relena thought. Soon enough Heero sense her presence and looked up. HE almost choked when he saw her sleeping outfit. `Damn her shorts are way short! By the way, nice legs.' Heero thought. But then he pushed his thoughts away. `What I'm I thinking? I'm supposed to think Relena as an enemy, but for some reason I'm attracted to her. Ah shit, I'm not attracted her! I mean she is gorgeous and all but I'm I really attracted to her?'
"Why are you exercising?" she asked. `God I could just watch him forever while he exercises that hot body of his.'
"For tomorrow, when I race." Heero said flatly. Relena took that answer and walked to the bed. Heero couldn't stand not watching her butt move up and down. Relena slipped into the bed and pulled the covers over her. Heero then did some more exercises for 15 minutes and went to bed. Relena could feel that he is now in the bed. She smiled and fell into slumber.
Heero looked up at the ceiling and thought about Relena. Somehow every time when he has a spare moment, he always thinks of her. After a couple of minutes, Heero too, fell asleep.

Relena's dream:
A little blue eye, blonde hair 9 year old out in the garden and was hiding. She quickly hid under a berry bush. Not so far away, was a tall man with dark brown hair and indigo blue eyes, walking toward her. The little girl shut her eyes, hoping the man would go away. But the man continues to come closer, closer, and closer. The girl's heart beat faster by the minute, as he walked toward her hiding place. The man stopped, he paused for a minute, waiting to say something. He called out, "Relena, get over hear! I need you to tell me where Mommy is!"
The little girl, known as Relena, was afraid that her father would yell at her. Her father always yells at her in a hurtful way, yet he only yell at her on weekdays. It was strange, that he usually work during the week days, yet stops by at home and asks her or yells at her, asking where her mother was. Relena wanted her parents to be in peace and love her. But they neglected her, and were never there for her. She stays home everyday alone, except with the servants, cooks, tutors, and other people who managed the house for her father.
Relena managed a weak reply, "She's out. I think with Uncle Dean." She fought back her tears, hoping he wouldn't say any hurtful and insulting comments. But no word came out of her father's mouth. Her father stared up at the sky for a minute, and then walked away. Relena screamed. She yelled, "Don't leave me home alone again Daddy! Why can't you stay home wit me?" She ran to her father and clung to his knee. Her father looks into her eyes and said, "I can't, sorry." He
gently kicked her off of his leg and went off, leaving Relena in tears and agony. Tears of sadness stream down her face and she fell into complete darkness.
End of dream......
~
Relena twisted and turn on the bed, wrapping the blanket in various places on her. Sweat perspires on her angel like face. She accidentally kicked Heero's side, which woke him up. Heero looked down at her, his face full of worry. He tried to calm her down, pinning down her arms and legs with his body. He called out her name, trying to soothe her.
"Relena! "Relena! Relena! Calm down it's just a dream! Listen to me!" Heero whispered into her ear. Relena heard faint calls of her name by a familiar voice. She couldn't really make out the voice that well. She continues to twist and move. Heero whispered her name louder. `Who is that? Whose voice is that? Heero? Is that you?' She thought and finally opened her eyes. Her eyes were swelled up with tears. Heero loosen his grip on her and pulled her to his body, embracing her to a hug. Relena accepted the hug and sat her head on his shoulder, crying. She kept mumbling about her father leaving, coming back, yelling at her, and that he was a major jackass, yet deep inside she still loves him.
"Sniff...I... father... sniff... I hate him... I can't forgive him Heero! Huh sniff... what could I do? I have to race Scott and how am I suppose to get the tape? How could I? I don't know what to do!" Relena said between tears and coughs. Heero raked his fingers through her hair gently and shushed her. Heero pulled her back till she was facing him. "Tell me what is going on, and I'll help you." Heero said gently. Relena wanted to tell him but somehow hold back on telling him anything. She replied with a soft whisper, "I can't. Not now." Heero lean over and kissed her forehead and embraced her once again. Relena calmed down, tears stopped, and she relaxed in Heero's arms. Heero fell back to the bed, pulling her too with him, and pulled the blanket over them. And so once again, they slept in each others arms, actually Relena slept in Heero's arms. And so many events are yet to come tomorrow which awaits them.
Chapter 7:
*Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep Be-* ::Crash::
?Stupid clock?? mumbled a certain someone with a long braid. Duo looked down at the broken alarm clock and muttered something about stupid alarm clocks. He kept his eyes open for a while, then yawned. Duo licked his chapped lips with his eyes drooping. His left eye twitched for a while as he grumpily walks to the bathroom. He flicked the light switch and grabbed his tooth brush, gushed some tooth paste on the bristles. All you could hear from the bath room was teeth being brushed, turn of the water facet, gargling, spitting, and the sound of the toilet flusher. Duo walked out of the bathroom and slipped his feet into comfy, warm bunny slippers. (A.N.: I couldn?t stand not adding that in! Duo just seems so cute in bunny slippers!) He stretched out his arms and then walked to Heero?s She passed by the bed, which Heero is still on, and she asked, ?What time is it Heero??
Heero glanced at the clock and replied, ?8 A.M.,?
Relena opened her suitcase and pulled out a pair of indigo blue jeans, a pink muscle shirt, and a cream colored, strapless bra. Heero just sat on his bed watching. Somehow Relena forgot that Heero was in the room and pulled down her boxers, revealing a white bikini underwear. Heero was surprised that she revealed her underwear to him. ?God does she know that I?m here?? Heero thought. Relena put on her indigo blue jeans, zipped and button it. She then took off her tank top. Oh boy was Heero?s eyes wide open! Heero couldn?t see her breasts, but only her tanned back.

Chapter 1:
In the ladies dressing room, a young woman about the age of 21 with dirty blonde hair and deep, sky blue eyes, opens up her duffel bag and takes out a racer?s body suit and helmet. ?I can do it?like I always could. I got win, no matter what.? She nervously squeezes herself into her hot pink with black and white checkered flag on the back racer?s body suit. She slowly zips up the zipper half way between her breasts and throat. ?Even though I have done this for 3 years, I am still nervous before every time I get ready for another race.? She pauses for a moment, trying to sort out her thoughts, and then she slowly put on her helmet and walked to into the arena.
She looked around he arena for her racecar. She spotted it quickly; it was in the front of the starting line. ?I know they are still looking for me all these years. But still they won?t give up until they find me.? She scanned the arena to see if any suspicious looking men, but found none. She runs to her car and asks the guys who were checking her car, what were the conditions and status.
"Well Reli Craftlian?" The man seems to be distracted by how low her zipper was to her breasts. ?Oh what a pervert.?
"Excuse me I asked what were the status and condition of my racecar here! I didn?t ask you to gaze at my breasts!" she sneered with a disgusted look.
"Oh uh sorry Ms. Craftlian?what your have here is one excellent heck of a car. All the status and conditions are all good." He said nervously, afraid that the woman would kick his ass, cause she has a reputation of kicking peoples? asses when they bother or annoying her.
"Good," she gave him a glare and got into the vehicle. ?Well Reli Craftlian, or should I say Relena Darlian Peacecraft, here I am again, in the front and ready for one heck of a race? she thought. ?All these years, I still can?t remember where I stashed it.?
"All racers please get inside into your vehicles at the starting line, the 80th Annual NASCAR Racing World Wide Race is about to begin in 15 minutes." The loud speaker boomed.
?Well?here I am again?racing away from my past.? Relena smiled, but the smile soon changed to sorrowful frown. She felt herself thinking about her past, everyday she had this same feeling for 10 years. She waited for the announcement of the race to begin. ?I just don?t?like this kind of racing one bit. I just don?t?.. know? why I am stilling racing again and again.?
~
"Yo Heero, are you ready to race?" a young man around the age of 21 with dark violet eyes, a long light brown braid and of course a cheery smile, wearing a dark blue and white racer body suit, and holding a black helmet, who seems to be an American, asked a young man beside him. ?Man he is always has that weird expression all the time.?
"Yeah," answered an annoyed young man around the age of 21, he seems to be a Japanese descendant, with dark, ocean eyes, unruly brown hair, wearing a dark green and black racer body suit, and also holding a black helmet but with one green streak on the front. ?Oh, that stupid baka, he had asked me that question a bazillion times in the last hour!?
"Hey Heero, Duo you have 15 minutes so go ahead get into your cars." Yelled a man with brown eyes, brown hair with long bangs on one side of his head, wearing a blue turtle neck racer body suit and a light blue helmet.
"Thanks Trowa, ain?t you going to race too?" Asked the man with the long braid, which was known as Duo. ?Whoopee! I get to finally race in the big leagues!?
"No, only you, Heero, and Wufei would be racing in the first race." Answered Trowa. "Quatre and I would be racing in the race after you guys."
"Oh okay, why don?t you and Quatre meet me, Heero, and wolf boy at the finish line? Yeah know we would probably win one of the top 5 of this race!" Duo laughed. Heero started to walk to his car, Duo went to keep up with him and Trowa yelled to him, "Okay we will meet ya at the finish line!" Duo just waved, which meant he said okay.
Heero and Duo got into their vehicles, which were also in the front of the starting line. They looked over all the other vehicles and their challengers.
"Hey Heero, good luck!" Duo yelled with thumbs up. ?Oh boy, the race is going to start!?
Heero just simply smirked at Duo and then concentrated on the road ahead of him. ?Man, I got to win,?
"Okay everyone get ready for the race to begin!" The load speaker bombed, "Ready!"
All the racers began to switch their engines on and switches.
"Get set!"
All racers were determined to win.
"Get set????????????GO!
All the racers furiously race to the road and smoothly turned onto the curved wall to the first turn.
?Oh my god?I?m still racing away from my past and fears.? Relena thought. She was on her second lap. She smoothly turned in a very fast speed. She was almost on the edge of the curve where it was between the fence and the edge of the curve.
"WOW people! Look at that! Number 06 almost hit the fence of the curve in great velocity, and it looks to me that, that racer has no problem with that! That was a smooth one! Oh my god, look! She has past cars #02 and #05 already with that smooth turn!" The crowd gone wild when they saw Relena ?s smooth turn.
Wufei quickly reacted when he saw #06 pasted him so quickly. Wufei was furious that a car has already past him! ?That son of a bitch! That was so injustice!?
?Whoever that was, he?s pretty good,? thought Duo as he saw #06 past him. ?Heero better watch out or that guy would past him and try to win the race.?
Soon enough Heero, Duo, Wufei, Relena, and 7 others were on their last lap. Relena switched her gear to 4 and soon enough caught beside Heero. ?Good, this guy is pretty tough,? Relena thought. She tried to go ahead of Heero, but Heero wouldn?t let her. Each time she try to go ahead of him, he races up ahead more until he was a little bit ahead of her, but still at her side.
?I got get ahead of him and win!? Relena screamed in her head. The thought of losing makes her remember what have her father did to her. ?This is his fault! He the one who makes me feel this way! Guilt I tell you, guilt!? She felt tears slide down he cheeks.
"I will always hate you father!" Relena yelled out loud with sorrow.
Heero somehow heard what Relena said and with those words he move his hand. But with that startled movement of his hand, Heero accidentally switched to gear 1. His car slows up with that movement, which gave Relena time to go ahead. Heero switched his gear back to 4 and tried to catch up, but it was too late; Relena crossed the finish line. He next, crossed finish line, and then Duo, Wufei, and this other racer named Scott.
"Everyone here are the top five! First it was #06, then #01, next #02, then #5, and #69! Congratulations to those top 5 in this race and congrats to #06 who finished first!"
~
Heero, Duo, Wufei, Relena, and all the other racers slowed their cars down to a finishing stop. Heero and Duo were the first ones to come out and went to search for Trowa and Quatre, and tried avoiding the reporters and fans. Wufei slowly came out and also tried to avoid the fans and reporters, but that didn?t work, he was too late.
"Mr. Chang sir! How do you feel being one of the top 5 in this race?" asked a reporter.
"Sir! Sir! Can I have your autograph?" yelled a fan.
"I love you Wufei!" yelled a mob of girls.
All kinds of questions buzzed around Wufei?s head. He became arrogated and yelled, "Get away you idiotic people! Go away!" Soon enough reporters and crazy fans chased him around the arena. He pulled out his sword but nobody cared that he had one, they just kept running toward him.
"Go Fuman!" yelled Duo with an ear to ear smile. The Duo turned to Heero and asked, "Hey Heero do you know who is that guy who beat you to the finish line?"
"I do not know who the hell he is, but I want to find out who he is." Heero was tensed that someone had finally beaten him. Even though it is his first time in the NASCAR World Wide Race, but nobody had beaten him in other competitions. His eyes were glued to the racecar #06. He waited and waited for the driver to come out. Then the car door opened but he couldn?t get a glimpsed at the guy since he was crowded with reporters and fans.
"Why don?t you look at that? Poor guy, surrounded by those crazed up peeps." Duo said with his head shaking side to side. ?Fame, uh isn?t that worth it.?
Suddenly the fans and reporters flew away and went to the other racers. ?Why did those people go away from that guy? Is he deformed or something?? Heero thought. All of the sudden Duo asked one of the workers of the arena, "Hey why did those people flew from #06?"
"Man you don?t know Reli? Where are you guys from? Europe? That gal would kick your ass if you mess with that driver! Once that dude or should I say gal kick five reporters? asses man, because they couldn?t stop bothering her!" The worker shook his head and walked away mumbling people these days don?t get the picture that well.
"What is that guy talking about? Did he say gal? Maybe he meant that guy was gay or something!" Duo was very confused. His head was filled with words that say "gals", "dude", and "gay".
"Oh you?re way wrong Duo, #06 is a woman." Quatre said suddenly just popped up to them.
"How do you know #06 is a woman?" Duo asked. ?Why do everyone find out about things before me all the time??
"Well why don?t you looked at her for yourself." Trowa said with a smirk.
"Where? Where is that- whoa look at that hot chick ca roo!" Duo?s eyes popped of their sockets out when he saw Relena coming their way.
"Hey Heero here is that mysterious #06!" Duo nudged Heero in the stomach.
"What!? Who is #0-" Heero was speechless when he saw Relena in front of him. ?Damn look at her sexy body, she looks like a pretty vixen to me. Oh my god who is she? Heero! You?re so stupid! She?s the one who beaten you!?
"You #01?" she asked. Relena scanned Heero head to toe. ?Well what do we have here? This guy is a major hunk!?
"Yeah, who wants to know?" Heero replied sharply.
"Well I wanted to meet the guy who I beaten to the f. line and who messed up big time." Relena smirked when Heero?s mouth twitched.
"Beginners luck." He said flatly.
"Nah ah, I?m no beginner. It was skill #01." Relena?s smirk became to a thin smile.
"My name ain?t #01, it?s Heero, Heero Yuy." Heero wondered where the hell she came from.
"And so my name is Reli Craftlian." Relena said, "Oh and tell your friend there to pick up his jaw off the floor because it can become stuck that way." She meant to Duo since he was staring at her with his mouth open.
"Well buh bye hot stuff." With that comment Heero slightly blushed while she walked away to the locker room.
"That is one cute, sassy, good looking, sexy, oh I can go on! You are one lucky guy Heero!" Duo laughed while Heero gave him a death glare to shut him up.
"Heero, I guess you have an opponent now!" Laughed Quatre. ?I can?t believe of all these years finally someone beaten Heero, but Duo don?t count cause he also jacks up Heero?s car so he could win.? ?Oh oh here comes Wufei with his?uh what happened to his sword? It looks to me he has a wrench with him.? Thought Quatre.
Wufei seemed very frustrated and mad. ?Oh those fucking people wouldn?t leave me alone! Don?t they know when I guy doesn?t want to be bothered? Man I got get that kid who took my damn sword!?
"Hey Wufie!" chirped Duo.
"Shut up you little cockatoo." Seethed Wufei.
"What your problem? Being beaten by a woman?" Duo laughed of thought that Wufei freaked out #06 was a woman.
"What do you mean beaten by a woman?" Wufei asked.
"He means that you have been beaten by Reli Craftlain." Relena smirked. Relena just suddenly showed up in a baby blue tee with the words I Love Racing in gold glitter and frayed jean shorts.
"Who are you?" Wufei snapped. ?Who the hell does she think she is??
"I?m racer #06." She replied.
"Give me proof then Missy!" Wufei splattered.
"Look up there!" Relena said and pointed to the screen up above the benches. The screen showed Relena picture, name, racer #, and status.
"That can not be!" Wufei wanted so bad to bite the woman?s head off.
"So there?s my proof." Relena smiled. ?This guy is fun toying with.?
"No way! You?re a woman! I can?t be beaten by a woman!" Yelled an angry Wufei.
"Hey do want to come eat with us for lunch at the Hard Rock Caf??" asked Duo, eyeing her figure again.
"What are you thinking baka? She?s an enemy!" Wufei screamed at Duo?s face.
"She?s just a woman Wufei, I mean a skilled racer." Murmured Duo.
"Uh sure," Relena slightly reddened. It was the first time she went out to eat with people except her with her father and his friends.
"Okay so meet us there at 2:00 okay?" Duo said with a cheery smile.
"Uh okay," Relena smiled back at Duo. ?Wow, I didn?t think I?d never make any friends or have lunch with.? "Well see yeah," Relena cheered up. She walks to her motorcycle and drove away. The guys watch her ride away to the freeway out of the arena.
"Whoa, I didn?t know she was a biker chick also!" Duo was amazed that Relena could ride a Harley.
"Well she is just another weakling, watch in the next race that she and I are in I will beat the shit out of her!" fumed Wufei.
"Man, and she is pretty good, you better watch Heero, she might beat you again." Trowa added.
"Hn, like I said, she probably had beginners? luck." Heero muttered. Everyone was just quiet for a minute until Duo said, "Well Trowa, Quatre don?t you guys race next?"
"Yeah," answer Quatre and Trowa answered in unison.
"Hey you guys know Reli?" asked a guy in white and yellow racer suit. All the guys switched their gazes to him.
"Why do you wanna know?" Asked Heero, sounding suspicious.
"Well I just saw you guys talking to her, and? well actually she doesn?t talk to anybody and usually if you bother her she?d kick your ass." The guy shrugged. "Oh and I?m the 5th of the top 5 in the same race that I raced with some of yeah. My name is Scott Poldet."
"Oh, well she?s just going out to lunch with us and that?s all unless she wants a fight with us." Duo confessed.
"Oh," Scott smiled wickedly. "Do you guys know her well?"
"No, we just met her." Quatre said eyeing Scott suspiciously.
"Okay, I just be careful around her, she not all she seems to be." He coughed out, still with the wicked smile on his face.
"What do you mean?" Heero questioned him.
"Never mind, just remember what I said." Scott said flatly and walked away from the group.
"What do you mean?! What do you know about Reli that we have to be careful around her cause of it?" Duo yelled after him. ?Who are you? What do you mean?? Duo was sort confused of what Scott said to them.
"Well I got to go to my racecar guys," said Trowa, as he rushed to his racecar.
"Me too, see yeah!" Quatre also rushed to his racecar.
"Heero do get what Scott told us?" asked Duo.
"I have no clue but I?m going to find out." Heero seethed. ?Who are you Reli??
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
Relena parked her Harley in the NASCAR Hotel parking garage and went into the elevator to level R4. She steps out the elevator and walked to her hotel room. She enters her cardkey and opened her door. ?Let?s see here, what should I wear?? She flop opened her suitcase and rumbled into it to find a perfect outfit for the lunch date. Soon enough she throws most of her clothing up in the air since she just can?t find one perfect outfit to wear. ?Should I wear this?? ?Or maybe that.? ?No this.? ?Nah, man! I can?t seem to find the perfect outfit!? She looked, tried on, on, and finally she finally settled with Paris Blues dark denim flared jeans with graffiti words on it and a skimpy white tank top that showed her mid drift. She smeared on some light gold eye shadow, a swept of sugar plum blush, glossed her lips with tender heart lipgloss, and had her hair down with hair sprayed all over it.
After that, she looked at herself in the mirror. ?Hm, pretty good Relena Darlian Peacecraft.? Then she started thinking about her past? and her father. ?I know father will never ever let me go out with anybody. He wouldn?t even let me go to school. All my life inside the Peacecraft mansion, home schooling, I don?t even have any friends before! I always envy those girls on TV, who had boyfriends, friends, cool clothes, popularity, go to school, and a normal happy life. While wither down in the mansion doing nothing but wishing that my dad was dead or murdered. He deserves to be dead and to hell for what he has done. Even though I had ran away from home 10 years ago, still I know my father and his men are still looking for me all these years. He wants the tape, the proof I need to prove that I?m not guilty, and that his the one who? ah if only I can find it, I hid the tape but I don?t remember where I stashed it. He wants me so I can?t go find the tape and turn him in. But I don?t know what to do now, he has a lot of power, cause of his business company, how can I compete with that without the tape? Well, I don?t think he remembers what I look like, I was 10 when he last saw me. Man I?m tired, what time is it?? She took a glance at her watch and it was 1:30. ?Oh I guess I could take a quick nap, I?ll just sleep here in the comfy cou- z-z-z-z-? Relena just plopped into the couch and was fast asleep.
z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-
2:00
The guys went into the Hard Rock Caf? and scanned everyone to see if Reli was around. But they can?t find Reli anywhere, so they got a table with an extra seat for Reli. They all sat down and asked the waitress to have 6 menus, one for Reli.
"Hey guys, maybe she?s late, yeah know." Said Duo.
"Probably," huffed Wufei.
"Why don?t we order first?" suggested Quatre.
"I guess." Duo shrugged. So all the guys ordered their food and waited for Reli or should I say Relena.
!*!
Relena finally woken up, ?Uh, what time is it?? She glanced at her watch and it read 2:13. ?Ah shit!? Relena slipped on her Hawaiian sandals and ran out to the parking garage to her motorcycle. She starts the engine and races out the garage to the road to Hard Rock Caf?. ?Ah man I can?t believe I?m late!? She drives over the limit and sped between cars and finally got to the restaurant. She parked it quickly and jammed into the restaurant. Everyone heard her race in and was staring at her as if she was a freak of nature. ?Great,? she thought. Her hair was kind of messed up by the wind and speeding.
"Hey Reli! Over here!" Yelled Duo. Relena turned to where he was and straighten up herself and walked to their table.
"Hi! Sorry that I was late." She breathed out, and plopped into her seat between Heero and Duo.
"We already ordered but are food haven?t came out yet so go ahead and order." Trowa explained.
"Okay, uh." She scanned the menu. ?Boy, I don?t even know what to order.?
"Uh waitress!" Relena exclaimed.
"Yes?" Said an Asian waitress with a Chinese accent.
"I?ll have the BLT, and Long Island tea please." Relena chirped and handed the waitress her menu.
"Okay miss," replied the waitress and off she went.
"So guys, uh, who won in the second race?" She asked them.
"Well, I won first, second was Quatre, then this guy Chris Plum, next Jonathan Barter, and lastly Frank Sprit." Trowa replied. "It was also hard to win first cause Quatre has been practicing and is almost better than me now." He laughed.
"Well Trowa, you should practice racing more like me!" laughed Quatre back.
"So Reli, where are you from?" asked Heero with his serious expression. ?Well let see who you really are Reli.?
"Uh, actually from here in around Cincinnati, OH." She lied. ?Oh I?m such a bad liar.?
"Oh, well do you have any parents or relatives who live here with you?" Heero asked. ?Hn??
"No, I don?t have any parents, actually they kicked me out of their home when I was? 16." She lied again. ?I hope I can pull this act off.?
"Oh really, so what hotel are you staying in?" Asked Duo. ?I wonder why Heero wants to know where she lives and if she has parents living with her or not.?
"At the NASCAR Hotel Resort." She said truthfully.
"Oh we?re staying there too!" Duo chirped. "What a coincidence!"
"Actually Duo, mostly all racers stay at the NASCAR Hotel Resort you baka!" Wufei sharply added.
"So guys, where are you from?" Relena asked politely.
"We?re all from Hamilton, OH." Quatre replied with a smile.
"Oh, I guess that?s not that far from here," Relena said, "Uh do you guys have relatives and parents around here?"
"Orphan," Is all Heero could say said.
"Lives in NY." Trowa muttered.
"Lives in Mansfield." Quatre replied.
"China." Wufei snapped.
"Uh how should I say this um? orphan!" Duo stammered.
"Lucky for you guys who are orphans, I wish I was one." Relena muttered under her breath.
"What did you say Reli?" Heero perked. ?Did she say what I thought she said??
"Oh nothing," Relena blushed furiously. ?How could he have heard me??
Suddenly the Asian waitress again appeared with Relena?s and the guy?s food. She sets their plates and drinks in front of them and left.
"Mmmmm," Relena said and took a bite of her BLT.
"Yummy!" Duo yelled in joy and bit a big chunk of his sandwich.
"Hmm, hmm," muffled Quatre with his mouth full of salad.
"?" Trowa was silent (AN: Ah the silent one, don?t yeah think?)
"This is so good!" Duo said. *Slurp* He took a long sip from his drink and then back to his sandwich. *Crunch, Chew, Chew, Burp! *
"Stupid Baka." Wufei snared. "You have no respect Duo."
"Well look at you! Calling women weak! And saying anything that is not your way injustice!" Duo snapped back to Wufei.
"Oh yeah take this!" Wufei scoped up a hand full of mash potatoes, aimed at Duo?s face, and threw that gunk straight at Duo?s face where he targeted it. *thunk* Splat the mash potatoes on Duo?s face. Duo scrunched up his face and was very mad.
"Ark ah?well take a bite out of this!" Duo threw his piece of pie he ordered at Wufei and it landed plopped onto Wufei?s head.
"Ah you little mindless idiot!" Wufei grabbed Trowa?s fries with ketchup and blindly threw it at Duo. But the fries didn?t hit Duo instead hit Relena at the face.
?Great, on my first date out to lunch I get food thrown at my face.? Relena thought.
Everyone was silent, even the customers and waitresses stopped doing what they were doing. Relena just silently took her napkin, wiped her face, and slowly sat up off her seat. She picked up her glass of Long Island tea, walked over to Wufei and tipped the glass over his head and the tea slowly spilled into his head. She placed her glass down in front of Wufei and walked back to her seat and sat back down. "Now were even Wufie." Relena said with a smile. Wufei?s face was all scrunched up and waited for a minute or two and suddenly growled, "Duo you?re going to pay severely! You too, Reli." He then sat back down onto his seat and picked up his sandwich and started to eat his sandwich. Soon enough everyone just went back to what they were doing. The gang stayed there for 15 minutes and soon enough paid their bill and left the restaurant.
"Hey Reli where?s you motorcycle?" he asked.
"It right over here," she led them to her motorcycle.
Duo whistled, "Wow that?s a nice Harley!" Duo exclaimed.
"How long have you had it Reli?" asked Trowa.
"2 years, I used to had a bug but I didn?t like, anyway it?s all broken up so I saved up my money to by this baby!" Relena responded with another sweet smile.
"Hey why don?t you hang out with us Reli at our hotel room! We have the game twister, the movie American Pie and American Pie 2, we can order pizza later on, we can play poker, and we can even play hide-n-go-seek! We have 3 rooms that are connected! So what do you yeah say?" Duo asked Relena.
?Boy this guy seem very hyper all the time.? "Uh, if you guys want me to, I would." Relena replied shyly.
"Could she guys?" Duo asked the guys. ?Please, say yes, please saw yes, please!? These guys never fool around with me and I get lonely, except when Wufei gets annoyed when I bug him and he chases me around the hotel threatening that he would slice my braid with his sword.? Duo made his bottom lip stick out.
"Duo were not girls, so put your bottom lip back." Trowa rolled his eyes.
"Please guys?" Duo whined. ?Please, please,? Those words just keep on popping up in his mind, chanting it over and over.
"Okay," All the guys said and sighed.
"Cool!" Both Duo and Relena jump into joy. They started to skip happily to their vehicles (Relena and Duo), while they guys just follow them.
"Wait a minute, do you guys want to follow me or I follow you?" Relena asked nicely.
"Uh, we?ll follow you," replied Duo.
"?Kay," Relena replied excitedly. ?Wow! I?m finally invited over someone?s place to hang out.
So then the guys followed Relena to the NASCAR Hotel Resort and to the parking lot. They parked their vehicles side by side and got out of the car and motorcycle. They walked to the elevator and pressed H 101-201.
"So Relena, on what floor do you stay in?" Asked Quatre.
"On I 201-301, my room is I 210." Relena replied.
"Oh that?s pretty close to the elevator huh?" Asked a still kind of hyperish Duo.
"I guess, I just don?t really pay attention where my room is close to that?s all." Relena sighed. ?Why would that matter??
*Ding!* dinged the elevator.
"Were here! Were here!" Screamed Duo and as soon the elevator doors open Duo just raced out the door and off to the guys? hotel room.
Everyone else just walked to the rooms calmly. ?Boy I wonder if Duo is like this all the time?? she thought.
"Uh Heero?" Relena called sweetly. Once Heero heard her call his name his swung to her and answered, "Yeah?"
"Uh, is Duo always like this?" she asked.
::sweatdrops:::
"Uh sometimes," Heero laughed. He gave her a smirk and when they got to the door of the hotel room, he kindly opened the door for her. Then he mentally slaps his face, ?What are you thinking Heero! She is the enemy! Well a sexy one but she has beaten you! Also there is something about her that is strange and it looks to me that she?s hiding something.?
Chapter 2:
"So people, what do you want to do now?" asked an excited Duo with ear to ear grin.
Nobody said anything. Just plain old silence, until Relena suggested," How about Truth or Dare?"
A couple of "Yeah!"s, "Alright"s, and "Okay"s answered that they will play truth or dare. They all gathered to a circle and they stated all the rules.
"No yaoi! And there are 3 consequences to chose from if you refuse to do the dare. Okay who wants to go first?" Duo asked. ?Finally! Some real fun!? Duo grinned.
"I?ll go first!" exclaimed Quatre. "Um, Duo! Truth or dare?"
?Hmmm? "Eh, truth!" Duo had his worried expression on his face.
"Okay! Is it true that you sleep in your thong to sleep?" Quatre grinned.
"HEY! HOW DID YOU KNOW! WELL TO TELL YOU THE TRUTH I SOMETIMES DON?T EVEN WEAR ANYTHING TO SLEEP!" Duo screamed. Then he immediately shut up because he remembered that Reli was with them. Her face was red as a tomato!
"Uh its okay Duo! Uh I can handle with that. I?m just shocked that you eh wear a thong to sleep? well lets continue!" Relena said.
"Okay! Who is my victim?" Duo scanned everyone for a victim. He stops a Relena. ?Uh oh!? Relena thought. "Hehe, Reli! Truth or Dare or Double Dare?" Duo had his evil smile plastered on his cheery face.
"Uh Duo there is no Double Dare!" Relena argued.
"Well now there is!" Duo wheezed back.
"Oh okay anyway I pick dare." Relena muttered. ?Please, let the dare be a cinch!?
"Oh yeah I been wanting for this one! I dare you to strip down to your bra and panties!" Duo eyes sparked up.
?Well that?s easy, at least I don?t have to give a guy a lap dance or a kiss. Oh no! I?m wearing a thong today! Damn it!? she thought. ?Why, why, why!?
"Uh, bit I?m wearing thong!" she exclaimed. ?Please give a consequence!?
"Good! Also this dare won?t have any consequences!" Duo crossed his arms.
"But I don?t want to do the dare! Can?t you give me any consequences?" Relena begged.
"Okay you can choose one consequence from these three: 1. Wear a teddie. 2. Let me ride your Harley. And 3. Give us a lap dance." Duo felt proud of himself.
?He?1. No I hate those whore type teddies?2?NO ONE RIDES MY HARLEY!?3?lapdance?HELL NO!?it has to be 2 or 1?? Relena thought real hard to make her decision. Duo in the other hand is very inpatient, the thing is he wants to ride her Harley, also he want a lap dance, but what he really wants is that Reli would make her decision now! He is really fed up with Reli?s slowness and yelled, "Why don?t you make up your mind already?!" He stood up and looked down at Reli.
?Uh, I guess I?ll choose 2.? "Okay Duo I?ll let you ride my Harley." Relena pouted with a frown. Duo jumps up and dances around the room chanting Harley. "Anyway, I pick Heero, truth or dare?" Relena grinned.
"Truth." Heero responded. "I wonder what question she?s going to ask me." Thought Heero.
"Okay, do you have a girlfriend?" she asked. ?Stupid Relena, why can?t you ask him a harder question!? she thought.
"No," Heero said flatly. "Oh and I pick you Reli. Truth or dare?" Heero focused his eyes at Relena.
"Truth" Relena answered. But then she wished she chose dare. ?Man, what if he asks me a question about my past!? Relena began to worry.
?Okay, lets see if you could answer this,? Heero thought. "Do you know who Scott Poldet is?" He asked.
Relena tried to remember if she knew Scott Poldet. ?Scott Poldet, Scott Poldet??
She suddenly remembers who Scott Poldet was! ?Daddy?s friend?s son! But it can?t be! How could he be here? No how could Heero Know Scott Poldet is?? She suddenly got a flash back.
(Flash back)
A 9 year old Relena sitting down at the dining table eating her potatoes, while her father was talking to this man younger than her father. Her father kept pointing at her while he talked with the young man. Then she noticed that there was a young boy about her age sitting next to the man Daddy was talking too. The man leaned over to the boy and whispered something. The boy?s eyes flashed toward Relena. The boy smirked, the man said, "Scott why don?t you go play with Relena?"
Scott replied, "Sure father, sure." Scott walked over to Relena and introduced himself.
"Hi I?m Scott, Scott Poldet." He said with the same smile on his face.
"I?m, Relena." Relena said timidly. She was afraid of Scott, for somehow his smile reminds her of the smile when her father is with her mom.
"Let?s go to your room okay? I wanna see it." Scott smiled again. He just grabbed her arm and dragged Relena to her room. Somehow he knew where it was. He opened the door to a glamorous, girly type room. He pushed her in and asked her, "Do you know how to play bad guys and victims?"
Relena didn?t know what such a game would concern bad guys and victims, it sounded like a stupid game, a game that was made up. "I don?t know how to play that game." Relena sounded very scared and hoping that Scott would just leave her alone.
"Well I?ll teach you." Scott ran over to her and pinned her down with her body. Relena?s eyes widened. "What are you doing!" she exclaimed but then her mouth was stuffed with a chunk of cloth. Scott whispered, "This is when the bad guy murders his victim." He then stashed out her knife and slowly brings it down to her stomach. Relena?s eyes started to bring out tears and begged Scott to stop. But at that moment, Scott?s father called Scott that they had to go home. Scott quickly slashed Relena?s stomach, leaving a not so deep cut across her stomach. Scott yelled Okay to his father and told Relena if she told anyone about this, he would kill her. He walked out of the room and left.
(End of flash back)
Relena quickly jumped at Heero and pinned him down to the floor. He was surprised of what she did and he couldn?t really get up because she was pressing a lot of her weight onto his legs. Relena sneered, "How do you know Scott Poldet?" Relena was furious, and is urgent to have her answer. "We just met him at the arena, he was one of the top five when you raced him!" Duo exclaimed trying to pull Relena off Heero. "Like what Duo said," Heero coughed out. Relena couldn?t take that as an answer. Heero grabbed her waist and tried to prey her off. ?Could Heero and the others actually are working undercover for my dad? But that can?t be! I just, why? Could they actually pretend to like me and be my friend?? Tears stream down her face, she felt confused. She just can?t bare making new friends that were just using her, and pretending to be her friend. She felt betrayed even though she doesn?t know for sure if Heero and the others are actually working for her fathering or something like that.
Heero doesn?t have a clue of Reli?s actions. He wonders why she is so angry and does she actually know this Scott Poldet? Is he actually her ex boyfriend or something?
Relena?s nails were digging into his skin and her weight on his legs were awfully pain full. Duo and the others are wondering what?s going and why Reli is acting this way. Duo just unconsciously grabbed Reli?s neck and twisted it, not so hard, but enough to knock her out for awhile. Relena slowly let go of Heero and laid down on him. Heero felt relieved that her nails let go his skin. He then looked at Reli and was surprised that she was knocked out.
"What did you do Duo?" Heero growled. Heero scoped Relena onto his lap and look Duo at the eye.
"Heero I just knocked her out! I didn?t kill or anything but that!" Duo sighed, regretting and not regretting of what he had done.
"Heero, do you know why she?um?attacked you?" asked Quatre. "Do you think she?d be okay?"
"I think she will Quatre," Trowa answered. Trowa stared at Heero as Heero carried Reli to his bed and laid her down. Heero laid the comforter onto her body to keep her warm. He looked back at the guys and said, "I?ll look after her, just in case if she wakes up and run away or something. I want to know what she?s hiding and so you guys can do whatever you want to do. Okay?"
"Yes," the guys answered in unison and so then they left Heero with Reli and went to the other two rooms.
Chapter 3:
No, father! You can?t! How could you? Why? Why mom? Why couldn?t you take me away instead?? Relena kept on having flashbacks of her past over and over in her dreams. She started to twist and turn and Heero tried to calm her down by putting a wet cool cloth over her forehead. ?I wonder what she?s dreaming about causes her to react like that.? Heero thought. Once in a while he feeds her some water, even though she isn?t a wake.
Heero gazed at her beautiful face, a face of an angel but hints of a dark and bad side. As she moves, she revealed some of her midriff, which makes Heero pretty uncomfortable. But then he notices that her tank top is stained with some skin-colored liquid. With all his curiosity in his mind, he lifted up her tank top a little and saw that her stomach was covered with that substance. He tries to smear it off her stomach to see what it is hiding. As he smears off the substance her begins to reveal a pink huge scar. He leans very close to her stomach to see the scar, which seems that it had been there for a long time. His face was very close to her stomach as he examines the scar and run his fingers around it.
Suddenly he felt Relena?s thigh raised and slammed onto his neck, pinning his head to her stomach. Her right leg was is up over her shoulder and tries to suffocate Heero but it didn?t work as well as she thought it would. ?Sleeping beast has awaken?? thought Heero.
"What the hell were you doing? Feeling my body while I?m knocked out? You sick minded pervert!" She sneered. She throws a fit as she tries to move her hands but somehow they would budge! ?What did he do to me?? she thought.
"Don?t try moving your arms or hands cause their handcuffed and I am the only one who has the key. So there you wouldn?t run away." Heero said in a calm voice and grabbed Relena?s leg and pulled it down to the bed and stood up gazing at Relena. ?Boy does Reli looked funny when she?s mad.? Heero chuckled at the sight in front of him. "Look here, I was only examining your stomach which covered a hug pink scar with pancake makeup."
"Well it?s not pancake make-up! Its body foundation." Relena quipped. Then she looks at him straight in the eye and asked with a weak voice, "I?I?m?I?m I still uh?um a virgin?"
Heero couldn?t do but chuckled out loud. ?She thinks I raped her? Why would I do that? I mean I would never take an advantage of a woman or raped one! I mean I never did really dated anyone or ever had sex with one. Like her, I still a virgin too!? Heero thought. Relena glared the daggers out of him and yelled, " What the hell is funny? Did you or did not raped me?"
"Look, I didn?t rape you, heck I?m still a virgin myself." He confessed. ?I can?t believe I told her that I was a virgin!? Heero mentally bitched slapped himself.
?Wow! I mean I thought he would already have sex with a bunch or a few women already! I mean he is hottie and a cutie pie but a virgin too? Whoa you don?t meet a guy like that very often.? Relena thought. "So, um?" Relena tried to think of something to say, "WELL AIN?T YOU GOING TO UNHANDCUFF ME!" she yelled.
"Nope, not yet. If I do you probably run away or attack me again." He answered. He walked to the mini kitchen, which was near the front door, and took a bowl of rice with teriyaki meat. He walked back to the bed and placed the bowl on her lap. He waited for Reli to pick up the bowl and eat. But she wouldn?t budge. He looks at her with confusing and asked, " Aren?t you going to eat anything?"
Relena would have slapped him by now but answered, "Baka! My hands are handcuffed remember?" Heero blushed but then quickly grabbed the bowl and spooned out some of the rice out and mumbled, "I knew that," He tries to put the spoon into her mouth but she refuse to open her mouth and turned her head away. ?She is so childish,? he thought. He tries a couple of times more but she kept turning away and refusing to open her mouth. Heero was fed up with this childish behavior and had an idea. He put the end of the spoon into his mouth and took her face with his two hands. Relena glared at his, wondering what his intending to do now. He used his hands to prey open her mouth and bends over. He then moves his mouth to hers and dumped the rice into her mouth from the spoon. He finally removed his hands and watches her munch on the rice with a surprised expression.
?What the hell did he just do? I mean that was a surprising way to feed someone! Oh I?m so dumb! He?s just toying with me! And I haven?t asked him how he knew that bastard Scott.? Relena thought while munching on her rice. All she could think of now is Heero. She begins to feel uneasy that Heero was watching her like a hawk. ?And I ain?t moving anywhere anyway with my hands handcuffed.?
"Do you want more? Or do I have to do that again?" Heero asked with a smirk. Relena?s eye caught that smirk of his as her heart raced on. ?He does have a cute way of smirking.? She thought. Heero spooned another chunk of rice but then Relena got an idea and kicked the bowl out of Heero?s hands and scurried off the bed. ?Got ya!? Relena laughed and raced to the door, but was stopped by Heero, which he grabbed her legs under her.
"Oh no you?re not getting away Reli Craftlain!" He yelled. He tries to drag her back to the bed to tie her feet also but Relena kicked his face. "OW!" Heero growled. Relena tried to crawl away from Heero as fast as she can be Heero jump on top of her. Relena tried to push him off but he?s way to heavy. So they wrestled each other over and over. They started hitting each other, throwing punches, and pulling each other?s hair. Relena finally got on top of him and pulled his hair with her teeth, giving him pain. (A.N.: Remember her hands are handcuffed.) Heero quickly grabbed her hair, also giving her a piece of him mind.
"You better let go Reli or else!" Heero threatened Relena. ?Man does she have to pull so hard with her teeth? Soon enough I?ll be bald cause of her!? Heero grunted in pain.
"No way Heero!" Relena fired back at Heero. ?Let?s see what?s he?s going to do about it.?
"Fine have it your way!" Heero raised one of his hands and tickled Relena?s stomach. ?Got ya! Or is she not ticklish??
"NO! NO! NO! AH-ha-ha-ha STOP?oof-ah-ha ha ha ha ha ha-please-ha ha ha ha stop! Ha ha ha ha ha!" Relena begged with laughter. Heero continued to torture her with his fingers. (A.N.: I know that sounds pretty perverted but put away your dirty thoughts people! Keep them to your selves!)
Then other guys soon heard Relena?s laughter and barged into the room thinking that something is wrong. Instead their worried expressions changed into ear to ear smiles. They just watch the couple torture each other. Heero begins to feel a presence of his friends and stopped tickling Relena. Relena?s laughter died down and she then felt the presence of the others. She tries to stand up but she lost her balance. Luckily Heero caught her before she fell faced down to the floor. Relena?s faced is now flushed of crimson pink. Heero too had a little pink blush on his face too. All the guys can do is just laugh!
"Now that?s a perfect couple in front of us!" Duo laughed. Both Heero and Relena blushed even redder and got off of each other?s arms. Both of them glared at the guys but that didn?t die down the laughter.
"Hey Reli and Heero what have you guys been doing in here?" Quatre laughed out load.
"Nothing! Now can someone takes these handcuffs off of me?" Relena snapped. She getting pretty annoyed now and wants these handcuffs off of her.
"Nope. Not until you answer all me questions," Heero answered. ?Now I could find out more about this Reli Craftlain.?
Relena gulps. ?Uh oh, NOBODY IS SUPPOSED TO KNOW ABOUT MY PAST!? Relena began to worry and hopes that she?d be able to keep her mouth shut.
Chapter 4:
There was silence in the room as Heero drag Relena to a chair and tied her to it. He made sure that he also tied up her feet to the chair. For some reason Relena was cool with that and even she didn?t struggle or try to attack Heero. She just stared blankly at the door, thinking away on what she should tell them about her past or lie about it. But the thing is, Scott kept popping into her mind. Shouldn?t Scott already recognize her at the race? Or did he didn?t know that her new identity is Reli Craftlain? Little does she know, Scott actually now that she is Reli Craftlain and that she is with these guys. Remember Scott did tell the guys that they should be careful around Reli Craftlain. Relena just can?t believe she has been found. The silence in the room was broken by Quatre?s cell phone.
Quatre swiped out his cell phone and answered, ?Hello?? While Quatre talk on his phone Duo wanted to ask Reli something and asked, ?Um how do you know Scott, Reli??
Relena?s eyes glared when she heard his name. ?I know him ever?? she paused. If you look into her eyes you can see a hints of a flame and somehow you could see Scott in her eyes. ?I know him ever since I was 9.? She sighed and wished she never told them that even though it doesn?t make sense why she hates him. Duo just couldn?t have that as an answer. He asked, ?Why do you hate him? Reli you could trust us!? Duo pleaded, he just couldn?t have anyone as a friend who doesn?t trust him.
Relena thought about what Duo asked and answered coldly, ?I can?t trust anyone, but I could not make any acceptations. Sorry Duo, and all you, I just can?t! I don?t think I could trust anyone anymore ever since I was 10!? Relena felt like bursting into tears but she pulled those tears back. She feels she should be tough and strong; like her mother. She just continued, ?Look all you need to know is that I hate Scott and wish he burns to hell. You guys just don?t understand how much it hurts to be betrayed by your own father! It hurts a lot. You would never understand, how to live on the streets at a young age! How to survive in the streets is hard, really hard. It took me years to live a normal life. Earning money is the hardest also, next to finding a home! Watch if you were in my life before, I sure it would be living hell.? The guys were stunned, even Quatre who is still talking on the cell phone. Relena stared at each one of them and stopped at Heero. She stared at him the longest and then took her attention back to the door. Quatre got off the cell phone and announced, ?Guys, we have a race soon, tomorrow at 12 pm for Heero and me. Trowa, you?re race is going to be at 3pm. Wufei and Duo, you?re race will start at 6 pm. You guys, we have to meet our sponsor Mr. Darlain Peacecraft tomorrow morning at 10:30 am. He says_? Quatre was interrupted by Relena who broke two legs of the chair. She head was down and her hands were balled into fists. Everyone stared at her, waiting what she is going to say or do. She weakly whispered, ?I knew it. I knew it!? Her whispers became load and soon enough she was yelling. ?I knew it, you guys are spies, frauds. Pretending to be my friend. You guys will turn me in! I know you will. Heero I thought you and the guys weren?t, I thought you guys wanted to be my friend. My life will always be a misery. All I want is a normal life. Racing is my only way to kept on living. I guess all I really did is run, racing away from my past, over and over. I hope you guys are happy with your reward after you turn me in. But I swear I?ll find my evidence that I could prove I?m not guilty.? Relena lifted her head up and tried to stand up.
?Could you please at least unhand cuff me? Or did my father told you to leave me helpless?? Relena snapped.
?Look, we don?t know what the hell you are talking about! All that gibberish you told us does not concern us! We are trying to help you and become your friends. Even I want to be your friend! So why don?t you trust us and tell us everything in order!? Wufei yelled at Reli.
?I can?t. I know you are lying!? Relena yelled back at Wufei. ?All I want is to be free, unhand cuffed, and back to my room!?
Heero slowly walked up to Relena and slapped her across the face. ?Look, we are trying to help you. If you want me to unhand cuffed you, you have to stay with us. I will go with you to your room to get your stuff. I didn?t mean to hurt you but I just can?t stand you blaming us that we are using you okay??
Relena face was red cause of that slap. She slowly nods her head. Heero takes a key out of his pocket and unhand cuffed her hands. Relena stood up with relief and stared at her hands. Then wiped out a gun pointing it at Heero. Everyone froze.
?Don?t make me use it Heero. I never had killed anyone and never meant to kill anyone but at this day, I?m making an acceptance.? She whispered. Heero was surprised that she has a gun and hopes she would not shot him.
?Reli don?t do this.? He whispered back softly. A couple of minutes pass by, and then Relena turn and shot the door. Everyone got surprised and jumped.
?Get in here right now! Whoever you are!? Relena snapped. Whoever was on the other side of the door, opened the door and stepped inside. It was the one and only Scott Poldet. He smiled at Relena. Relena gripped on the gun tightened. Her eyes pieced right through Scott.
?Reli that glare of yours is pathetic. Or should I say Relena.? Scott walked closer to Relena.
?Don?t move or I?ll shoot Scott. I swear, I?ll kill if you come a step closer.? She snapped.
?Relena, Relena. Poor you, you still remember that scar I gave you? You know you could never kill anyone. You know you still look the same to me. Cute. Beautiful. And yet breathtaking. Those features make me want you. Why are you here now? Racing is not your thing. Yet you are still scared ever since you were 9.? Scott smiled again as Relena?s eyes starts twitching.
?What do you want from her? What has she ever done to you?? Duo yelled at Scott. Scott wiped out his gun and pointed it at Duo.
?Shut up. Or else I?ll kill you. This is between me and her.? Scott said. He moves the gun toward Relena. ?You know why your father is looking for you. Tomorrow, 11am, that is the time you race against me. Your father will be there. If you refuse,? he presses the gun at her neck and moves it down, circling her breast and stops at her heart. ?We?ll kill your little friends and you. Oh ya bring the tape.? Heero?s blood boil when Scott circled his gun around Relena?s breast. Heero walked over to Relena and stood by her side and said, ?You kept your hands off her Scott!?
Scott eyed Heero and said, ?You stay away Jap. You and your little friends don?t know what you are dealing with. I bet Relena wouldn?t want you hurt or any of you either.?
Scott gave one last look at Relena and left. Relena watched him go and slammed her fist to the wall, cracking the wall. She was taking deep breaths and turned to Heero. She stared into his eyes and said, ? I don?t know if you guys are part of this or not but stay out of it. Please let me be and I guess I?ll stay with you guys for the time being.?
Duo walked over to Relena and asked, ? Who are you? Really what is your real name?? Relena backed away a little and answered, ?All you need to know that is my first name is not Reli, yet it is Relena.?
Wufei, Trowa and Quatre walked to them and Trowa asked, ? Do you want to get your stuff from your room right now?? Relena nodded and lead the way.
Chapter 5:
As they walked to the elevator, Relena kept going up way ahead of them as if she is avoiding them. When she reached the elevator, she presses the down button. The door opens; she goes in, without bothering pressing the wait button. Heero immediately signal the guys to hurry and ran into the elevator. Relena wouldn?t even look at them; she just stared down to the floor. She shuffles her feet a little, waiting for her floor.
*Ding* The elevator door opened and Relena was the first to get out. The guys followed her; they turned left and passed 9 doors until they reached the tenth door. Relena reached into her back pocket and took out a cardkey. She slid the card into the slit and the door opened. Her room was a mess. Her clothes were thrown everywhere, bed sheets on the floor; pillows ripped open, drawers drawled out, and everything in her hotel room was tampered with. Relena just stood there looking at her room. ?I know he did this, he was looking for the tape.? Relena thought. She immediately ran to her suitcase and searched for something in a hidden pocket. Duo, Trowa, and Quatre looked around and surveyed the damage of Relena?s things and the hotel?s. Wufei saw something in the restroom that caught his eye and went to it. Heero, with curiosity, seem to be watching Relena, to see what she is looking for. Relena opened a hidden pocket on the bottom of the suitcase and unzipped the pocket. What could be scene inside the pocket were really dangerous weapons. She reached in and pulled out a knife, another knife but a pocketknife, 3 guns, a couple packages of bullets, and a bunch of $100?s. She reached in further and pulled a chain of keys. ?Yes he didn?t go through the hidden pocket! All my weapons, money, and keys are still here!? Relena thought. Heero?s eyes popped out when he saw her guns and knives, including also her money. Heero was about to ask Relena why she has all those weapons, but then Wufei interrupted him.
?Reli I?m mean Relena, come here right now!? Wufei called from the bathroom. As soon as Relena stood up and walked to the bathroom, the others immediately followed her. Once they were in the bathroom, they understood why Wufei called him in. On the mirror, written with Relena?s MAC lipstick in Tender, was a message. It said, ?Hello RDP. Happy with your life, dear? Guess what? It will end soon. I know you have the tape, but if you turn me in, I will surely seek vengeance.
If I go to jail, still Scott and my other men will go after you. You don?t want to hurt me, your father do you? So tomorrow, like what Scott said, race Scott at 11 am. Bring the tape. Also, all your little friends are not in it, so they better kept their nosy noses away from this!
Love,
You know who?
P.S.: This lipstick does not match your complexion.?
Relena was ready to kill her father now! ?How dare he busted into my hotel room and searched through my stuff, leaving a mess, without my permission!? The same feeling came back to her; betrayal, angst, and sorrow.
Relena silently whispered, ?Watch I?ll find away to complete my revenge for my mother, father.?
Heero heard what she said and was wondering who was her father and mother. Heero studied the message more closely. One thing that caught his attention was ?RDP?. He knows ?R? means Relena, but what does ?DP? mean? Heero wanted to ask Relena what it stands for but was smart enough not to ask. Heero wants to know Relena and learn more about her, but he has no idea that he has become attracted to Relena. Relena stared at the mirror, looking at her complexion. She stared at it for a minute and walked out.
Duo, with all his curiosity, followed Relena out the bathroom, and then soon everyone follows also. Duo watched Relena as she packed her stuff and grabbed everything she needed. Duo watched very closely when Relena place her weapons into her hidden pocket. Duo liked Relena?s gun that had her name in graved in it. Duo picked it up carefully not letting Relena see that he has it, he observed. What was in graved in the gun was ?Relena Darlian Peacecraft?. Duo?s eyes popped out of their sockets when he saw her last name. ?She, she, Rel- she is our sponsorship?s daughter!? Duo thought. Quickly, he placed the gun back where it was but he was too late, Relena saw him placed it down.
Relena looked at him, knowing that he know who she is. She grabbed his collar down, facing her face to his and sneered, ?Keep your little shitty mouth closed or else I?ll severely skin you!? Duo nodded willingly, not wanting to feel the pain from Relena. Relena loosened her grip of his collar and pushed him a side. Luckily none of the guys saw this scene.
Relena finished her packing and pulled out 4 $100?s and placed it on the counter of the dresser. Duo looked her weirdly, showing that he wants to know why she left $400 on the dresser. She told him that it was a tip and to pay all the damaged of the room.
Heero walked up to Relena and helped her carry her luggage. Relena watched him surpriseingly that he was actually carrying all her luggage. So anyway the guys followed Heero out of the room and to the elevator.
Chapter 6:
That night, everyone went to sleep, except Heero and Relena. Duo and Trowa slept in the third room (separate beds). Quatre and Wufei slept in the second room (separate beds once again!) But since the first room only had one king sized bed, since Heero slept alone before, now he has to share it with Relena. Relena didn't mind.
"Which side do you want to sleep on?" Heero asked. `Or should I have asked her if she would like to have the bed to herself and I could sleep on the floor? Damn it.'
But Relena just shrugged and took out something out of her luggage and went into the bathroom. Heero wondered what she was doing, but the sound of bristles of a toothbrush told him that she was getting ready for bed. Heero took a deep sigh and took off his shirt and pants, leaving him only in boxers. This was his usually attire for bedtime. Then Heero did some push-ups to strengthen his arms for tomorrow. He kept thinking about Scott and Relena. He wonders what Relena is hiding. Even though she told them a little about her past, but she is still hiding something, he could sense that. Heero was so catch up thinking about Relena that she already came out of the bathroom already. She was wearing short, checkered boxer shorts and a thin white tank top. She was staring at Heero's muscular figure and what else, his butt.
`He really nice ass.' Relena thought. Soon enough Heero sense her presence and looked up. HE almost choked when he saw her sleeping outfit. `Damn her shorts are way short! By the way, nice legs.' Heero thought. But then he pushed his thoughts away. `What I'm I thinking? I'm supposed to think Relena as an enemy, but for some reason I'm attracted to her. Ah shit, I'm not attracted her! I mean she is gorgeous and all but I'm I really attracted to her?'
"Why are you exercising?" she asked. `God I could just watch him forever while he exercises that hot body of his.'
"For tomorrow, when I race." Heero said flatly. Relena took that answer and walked to the bed. Heero couldn't stand not watching her butt move up and down. Relena slipped into the bed and pulled the covers over her. Heero then did some more exercises for 15 minutes and went to bed. Relena could feel that he is now in the bed. She smiled and fell into slumber.
Heero looked up at the ceiling and thought about Relena. Somehow every time when he has a spare moment, he always thinks of her. After a couple of minutes, Heero too, fell asleep.

Relena's dream:
A little blue eye, blonde hair 9 year old out in the garden and was hiding. She quickly hid under a berry bush. Not so far away, was a tall man with dark brown hair and indigo blue eyes, walking toward her. The little girl shut her eyes, hoping the man would go away. But the man continues to come closer, closer, and closer. The girl's heart beat faster by the minute, as he walked toward her hiding place. The man stopped, he paused for a minute, waiting to say something. He called out, "Relena, get over hear! I need you to tell me where Mommy is!"
The little girl, known as Relena, was afraid that her father would yell at her. Her father always yells at her in a hurtful way, yet he only yell at her on weekdays. It was strange, that he usually work during the week days, yet stops by at home and asks her or yells at her, asking where her mother was. Relena wanted her parents to be in peace and love her. But they neglected her, and were never there for her. She stays home everyday alone, except with the servants, cooks, tutors, and other people who managed the house for her father.
Relena managed a weak reply, "She's out. I think with Uncle Dean." She fought back her tears, hoping he wouldn't say any hurtful and insulting comments. But no word came out of her father's mouth. Her father stared up at the sky for a minute, and then walked away. Relena screamed. She yelled, "Don't leave me home alone again Daddy! Why can't you stay home wit me?" She ran to her father and clung to his knee. Her father looks into her eyes and said, "I can't, sorry." He
gently kicked her off of his leg and went off, leaving Relena in tears and agony. Tears of sadness stream down her face and she fell into complete darkness.
End of dream......
~
Relena twisted and turn on the bed, wrapping the blanket in various places on her. Sweat perspires on her angel like face. She accidentally kicked Heero's side, which woke him up. Heero looked down at her, his face full of worry. He tried to calm her down, pinning down her arms and legs with his body. He called out her name, trying to soothe her.
"Relena! "Relena! Relena! Calm down it's just a dream! Listen to me!" Heero whispered into her ear. Relena heard faint calls of her name by a familiar voice. She couldn't really make out the voice that well. She continues to twist and move. Heero whispered her name louder. `Who is that? Whose voice is that? Heero? Is that you?' She thought and finally opened her eyes. Her eyes were swelled up with tears. Heero loosen his grip on her and pulled her to his body, embracing her to a hug. Relena accepted the hug and sat her head on his shoulder, crying. She kept mumbling about her father leaving, coming back, yelling at her, and that he was a major jackass, yet deep inside she still loves him.
"Sniff...I... father... sniff... I hate him... I can't forgive him Heero! Huh sniff... what could I do? I have to race Scott and how am I suppose to get the tape? How could I? I don't know what to do!" Relena said between tears and coughs. Heero raked his fingers through her hair gently and shushed her. Heero pulled her back till she was facing him. "Tell me what is going on, and I'll help you." Heero said gently. Relena wanted to tell him but somehow hold back on telling him anything. She replied with a soft whisper, "I can't. Not now." Heero lean over and kissed her forehead and embraced her once again. Relena calmed down, tears stopped, and she relaxed in Heero's arms. Heero fell back to the bed, pulling her too with him, and pulled the blanket over them. And so once again, they slept in each others arms, actually Relena slept in Heero's arms. And so many events are yet to come tomorrow which awaits them.
Chapter 7:
*Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep Be-* ::Crash::
?Stupid clock?? mumbled a certain someone with a long braid. Duo looked down at the broken alarm clock and muttered something about stupid alarm clocks. He kept his eyes open for a while, then yawned. Duo licked his chapped lips with his eyes drooping. His left eye twitched for a while as he grumpily walks to the bathroom. He flicked the light switch and grabbed his tooth brush, gushed some tooth paste on the bristles. All you could hear from the bath room was teeth being brushed, turn of the water facet, gargling, spitting, and the sound of the toilet flusher. Duo walked out of the bathroom and slipped his feet into comfy, warm bunny slippers. (A.N.: I couldn?t stand not adding that in! Duo just seems so cute in bunny slippers!) He stretched out his arms and then walked to Heero?s She passed by the bed, which Heero is still on, and she asked, ?What time is it Heero??
Heero glanced at the clock and replied, ?8 A.M.,?
Relena opened her suitcase and pulled out a pair of indigo blue jeans, a pink muscle shirt, and a cream colored, strapless bra. Heero just sat on his bed watching. Somehow Relena forgot that Heero was in the room and pulled down her boxers, revealing a white bikini underwear. Heero was surprised that she revealed her underwear to him. ?God does she know that I?m here?? Heero thought. Relena put on her indigo blue jeans, zipped and button it. She then took off her tank top. Oh boy was Heero?s eyes wide open! Heero couldn?t see her breasts, but only her tanned back.
