Chapter1: A letter and an old friend

Thalia woke up, at 5 am, feeling slightly blue. She ignored it, thinking herself paranoid, and got up to take a shower. She then dressed in a black leotard, blue tights and pulled her auburn hair in a bun. Then grabbed her toe shoes and started stretching in the livingroom of her apartment.

She'd usually stretch and practice ballet every morning for 2 hours before breakfast. Then meet her partner Brad to practice latin dancing for 2 more hours before going out for lunch. After that she'd usually just relax for awhile before cooking dinner for herself and settling herself down to study.

Today however, fate decided to give her a change, hopefully for the best.

Thalia sat reading her mail over a bowl of cheerios when she suddenly dropped her mail and fell off her chair, spilling her breakfast all over the place. She immediately jumped up and re-read the letter quickly before once again dropping it, eyes wide.

It was a letter from her brother. He wanted her to come home, to allow him to help celebrate her upcoming 18th birthday. He wrote of throwing a grand ball in her honor and of how much he hoped she would agree to come.

She immediately sent word to him that she accepted his offer and would be there the next day.

For the rest of the day, Thalia flew about like a madwoman, trying to get everything ready for her trip the next morning.

She tugged nervously on her waist length braid before glancing, for what had to be the millionth time, at her watch as she waited impatiently for her escort to arrive to take her to her brother. She sighed before glancing around, once again, at her surroundings.

The airport was quite busy for 3am. People running about like heedless chickens, hugging their loved ones and locating their baggage. She snickered as a young woman, who looked to be in her 20's, threw herself into a man's loving embrace, causing them both to fall to cold, stone floor.

She was so involved in watching the couple's heartwarming show of affection that she didn't hear someone coming up behind her until she felt a pair of warm arms wrap themselves around her waist.

"Guess who?" A soft masculine voice she knew all too well whispered sexily in her ear, causing her to shiver in delight.

"I didn't know you'd be here." Thalia said softly, not turning to look at the man who held her in his embrace.

"I came to greet you. I'm glad you decided to come Thalia, I've missed you since you joined CDC." He explained. Her heart softened at his words.

"I've missed you too…" She turned in his arms to face him, her green eyes staring into his. "Trowa."
