Chapter 1
"Honey." Relena softly scolded at her son, "You're getting more ice cream on your face than in your mouth."
Kyle simply smiled and continued to eat his ice cream cone as if there were no tomorrow. "Want some ice cweam Mommy?"
"No thank you Kyle. Just eat your ice cream."
Relena held Kyle's hand as they walked happily to the park, Kyle insisted that they went. It was a lovely day. The way every normal "lovely day" looked like sunny skys, birds chirping and a slight summer breeze. Dodging another inline skater Relena guided her son to a sandbox that was also occupied by a little girl with tight brown pigtails
"But Mommy she's a girl!"
"I know she is Kyle. She won't bite your leg off, Sweetie."
"But she has cooties!" Kyle exaggerated.
"Have you been hanging out with Duo's kid, again? She doesn't have cooties. In fact she looks like a sweet little girl." Relena said and left to go sit on a park bench.
With his head hung low Kyle walked over to the sandbox. "Hi, I'm Kyle."
Smiling the girl held out her hand for a handshake. "I'm Hallie Elizabeth Yuy."
"Eww…I'm not going to shake your hand! You have cooties!"
"I do not have cooties. I took a bath today!" Hallie screamed back.
"It sure doesn't smell like it!"
"Look whose talking!" Sniffed Hallie while putting sand in his hair.
"Hallie!!!!" You cootie-faced worm head!"
"AHHHHHH"
Relena immediately put down her romance novel to find her son pulling the poor girl's pigtails while she threw handfuls of sand at him. Their cries could be heard throughout the park, causing her and a man she assumed to the girl's father to sprint towards their children.
"Kyle are you okay?" Relena asked brushing the sand out of his hair.
"I'm okay Mommy but she tried to kill me!" Kyle claimed pointing at Hallie.
"No I wasn't!"
"Yes you were!"
"I was not!"
"You were too!"
"I was not not not!!!"
"I'm really sorry." Relena apologized to the man holding his daughter.
"You should be!" Heero arrogantly smirked. "Try teaching that son of yours manners!"
"I have thought him manners! Mr…. Mr…"
"Yuy. Heero Yuy."
"What are you James Bond?!? And as for your daughter I suggest you teach her not to throw sand at innocent children!"
"Innocent? Hah! Well Ms. Relena Peacecraft you're son could learn a thing or two from my darling Hallie!" Argued Heero reading the nametag Relena had on and must have forgotten to take off.
The two children watched in amusement as their parents bickered louder than they did. By now Hallie and Kyle had forgotten that they were fighting at continued to stare at their parents, who were making a spectacle of themselves.
"Want half my cherry popsicle?" Hallie offered breaking her treat in half.
"Okay!"
"When do you think they'll stop fighting?"
"I don't know." Kyle answered licking his popsicle, "Mommy hasn't screamed at anyone like this since Daddy left."
"Oh. Sorry I threw sand in your hair."
"That's okay. Sorry I pulled on your pigtails. They're very pwetty."
"My Daddy did them for me. Want to push me on the swings."
"Why would I want to do that?"
"I'll give you a lollipop!" Hallie bribed.
"Oh, alright." Kyle agreed as the two walked to the swings.

"I don't see why you should tell me how to raise my child when you're the one working at K-mart!" Heero loudly commented. (No offense to those who work at K-Mart.)
"That happens to be a temporary job. And the pay isn't half-bad! Why don't you mind your own business."
"Excuse me. Could you please stop screaming at eachother? It's scaring my children." A woman unhappily asked pointing to her screeching children.
"Well screw you!" The two screamed in unison causing her to quickly run away.
"I just don't see why she can't mind her own business." Relena shrugged.
"Can't two people argue without people getting in their face?"
"Where were we anyway?"
"I think---"
"WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!" Hallie cheerfully giggled interrupting Heero and Relena.
"Is it my turn yet?" Kyle whined puushing the swing as best he could with a lollipop in his mouth.
"No, I'm getting my lollipops worth of pushes okay."
"That's not fair." Kyle grumbled making incoherent noises.
"Aren't they adorable?" Relena smiled watching the two.
"Whatever you say."
"And what's that supposed to mean?"
"Nothing you'd understand." Heero simply stated.
"So not only are you an arrogant jerk. You also have no idea what you're saying. I don't see how anyone could stand you, let alone understand you."
"Oh really! I'm taking my Hallie home! I didn't realize so many dimwits came to this park!"
"Look whose talking!"
Relena and Heero stormed off to the swings. To their childrens confusion they were picked up by their parent's arms and pryed away from eachother. Realizing that there was nothing else to do Hallie screamed bloody murder and hurled her body in every direction in Heero's arms.
"I don't wanna go!" Hallie cried.
"And you said my son could learn a thing or two from my daughter." Relena sarcastically grinned holding an equally loud and squirming child.
Heero just frowned and walked away. The nerve of that woman! Most women would've winked and come on to him. But this Peacecraft didn't even blush. They simply fought and woke up the entire city. She wasn't an ordinary female. By now Hallie had calmed down a bit and just held his hand while hiccupping.
Relena watched as Hallie and Heero slowly walked away. To think that was this innocent girl's father. Hopefully Hallie was adopted.
"Mommy?" Kyle asked his blue eyes giving her the look that always turned her to jelly. "Can Hallie come over to play? Pleeeeeeeease."
"We'll see sweetie." Relena sighed and brushed some hair out of his face.
"Honey." Relena softly scolded at her son, "You're getting more ice cream on your face than in your mouth."
Kyle simply smiled and continued to eat his ice cream cone as if there were no tomorrow. "Want some ice cweam Mommy?"
