Here is the prolouge that you didn't have to wait for!! Probably gonna be short!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
It had been almost a week since Trowa's death and Quatre was still in mourning, but today he was a little happier. It was his birthday and all his friends had gathered to join the celebration.
"All right Quatre!" Duo exclaimed patting him on the back, "You're finally seventeen, now you can... can... what can you do at seventeen?"
"You can get into rated R movies." Heero chimed in.
"But what would Quatre do at a rated R movie... ooooh I see!" Duo grinned evily.
"What? Duo what are you- gawd!" Quatre blushed when he realized what Duo was getting at.
Duo smiled, "I'm joking, you wouldn't do something like that!" He grabbed a handful of chips and munched on them.
Quatre rolled his eyes and sat down at the table. He looked around at the people who had came. The remaining pilots, Sally, Hilde, Relena, Dorothy and Catherine who was still wearing black for her brother. He smiled at Catherine who gave a little smile back. Quatre was also wearing black, but his blonde hair made it look like he normally wore black.
"C'mon Quatre, open your presents!" Duo bounced around next to the small pile of presents for Quatre, "I wanna know what you think of mine!" He smiled and clapped his hands excitedly.
"You're pretty high strung for recently losing a friend of yours." Heero muttered next to him.
"I can't help it, plus, I wasn't all that close to Trowa, but I'm still wearing black!" Duo stuttered a little.
"You always wear black!" Heero, Hilde, Relena and Quatre said in unison. Duo grinned and blushed.
After Quatre opened the presents, just little things nothing major, Duo handed him a smaller one that looked like a book. Quatre gently tore open the blue wrapping paper and saw that it was a picture frame, and inside the frame was a cute picture of Quatre hugging Trowa outside in a grassy lawn. Quatre felt fresh tears in his eyes and looked up at Duo who smiled gently.
"Happy Birthday Quatre." He said calmly.
"Duo, this is very out of character for you, I really appreciate it, thanks." He stood up and hugged Duo whose eyes flew wide open and then shoved Quatre away.
"Hey now, don't get all lovey dovey on me, I have a girlfriend you know!" He slid his arm around Hilde's waist and kissed her on the cheek.
Everyone chuckled and then continued on with the party. A few hours later everyone left and Quatre was left alone with Catherine. He looked down at the picture that Duo gave him then looked up at Catherine.
"I don't think I'll ever stop missing him." Quatre said quietly.
"That's good, because that way he still lives on in your heart and you can feel him watching over you with everything you do." Catherine whispered hugging Quatre who hugged back. "Trowa wouldn't want you to forget him, I knew that he loved you as much as anyone could love someone else." She gently kissed Quatre on the cheek and walked out the door, leaving Quatre alone with his thoughts and the picture.
"Trowa, I could never forget you, and I'll never find someone else to replace you." He closed his eyes and hugged the picture to cherish it forever.
