Relena Peacecraft tried not to smile as Milliardo was ranting and raving how her 'Valentine' could be a killer out to get her

True Hearts

Relena Peacecraft tried not to smile as Milliardo was ranting and raving how her 'Valentine' could be a killer out to get her. For the last few days' gifts in her room, office and anywhere else she would normally go have been left for her to find. The gifts, wasn't what bothered the older Peacecraft; it was the fact that this person could get by Relena's guards without any problem. Of course some would say it was his sister complex. Each time she got something, Milliardo would be red in the face. Noin on the other hand was really calm about all of this, maybe even a little bit too calm. It had been two days since she found roses in her room. Two days left till Valentine, and well, Milliardo was pissed.

"How is it possible?" Milliardo asked for the fifth time that day.

Noin walked into the living room, "I don't know, but Relena you have another gift."

Noin gave Relena a white teddybear with a blue bow around its neck. It was carry a small envelope, which was sealed with a sticker heart. Milliardo stared at the teddybear, while Relena opened the letter. Out came a ticket, and a note.

She read it aloud, "Dear Relena, here is a teddybear to keep the one you already have company. The ticket is for the dance club on the 14th. I hope you can make it. I'll pick you up at 7:00 p.m. P.S. Tell your brother he needs to get you better bodyguards. Heero Yuy."

"What? Heero's been sending you all of this?" Milliardo freaked.

"Well, that was sweet of him. I wonder why he had a change of heart…" Noin chuckled.

"I don't believe it, Heero sent all of that to me?" Relena smiled, rereading the note again.

"Believe it."

Hilde had just come back from her duties to find her front door open. She frowned, running in she hoped that nothing was taken. Nothing was missing, instead there was something added. On the table in front of the television was a basket full of heart shape cookies. In the VCR there was a video labeled 'Watch Me'. Hilde chuckled to herself, picking up the basket of cookies and pushing in the tape. On the screen Duo appeared, Hilde looked at the screen, then at the cookies. They looked home baked.

"Hi Hilde! Surprise! Did you guess it was me? Come on, I bet you didn't see that coming a mile away. Hoped you liked everything that's happened so far, I sure have. Anyways in the basket there is a ticket to a dance club on the 14th. I'll pick you up around 7 okay? Hope you like the cookies!"

Hilde stared at the cookies.

"Oh, and one more thing, I didn't bake them. Kara did, she didn't trust me with the oven. Said something about burning down the kitchen."

She laughed, "No kidding, I was getting worried."

"See ya later!"

The screen blanked out, and Hilde smiled, taking a bite into a cookie. At least she knew they were safe to eat.

"Hmm……… Now the only question is, what am I going to wear?" Hilde picked up the phone and punched in a number.

"Hello?"

"Hi, Kara?"

"Hi Hilde, what's up?"

Hilde smiled, "I got Duo's message, and thanks for not letting him make the cookies."

"Hehe, well, I didn't want to school the lose it's kitchen."

"Yea… Hey I need a dress, so I was wondering if you'd like to go shopping with me?" Hilde asked.

"How about I just loan you a dress?"

"You aren't going? I thought you had a Valentine Kara."

"I do, but Quatre just came to me, and I need to get Miroki's dress ready, without her knowing of course."

"Of course, so you're going to be helping Quatre?"

"Why not? My friend is going to get the best surprise of her life. Besides I have a dress that might fit you."

"Good, I'll be over to try it."

Kara sighed as she fell onto her bed. She was tried, she had to help Quatre, and she just finished helping Duo and Hilde. Not to mention help Noin to keep Milliardo from seeking Heero out and pounding him. Not that Milliardo could anyways, but it would save everyone a lot of trouble. Feeling sleepy, Kara decided hell with getting change; she was just going to sleep right then and there.

~Next Morning~

Still a bit sleepy, Kara opened her eyes. First thing she noticed, which was normal, that Jasper was on her chest. That's when she had this sinking feeling that something wasn't right. For starters, she was under the covers.

"Didn't I just fall asleep on the bed? I didn't get under the covers last night," Kara frowned to herself.

Carefully getting up, since Jasper needed time to get off her chest. Kara saw that there was something around her kitty's neck. On a closer look it was a pendent, with a red ribbon. Taking off her kitten, she studied it. It was plain silver, nothing fancy. On the back there was something written in it. Kara was aware from reading it that there was heat creeping up her neck, and second she was being watched.

"Watched, okay, now I'm freaked out," Kara thought silently turning around.

What she saw, was probably the last person, next to Wufei and Heero she expected to see in her room. Sitting on a chair, next to her desk, with a clear view of her bed was Trowa.

He smirked, "Did you have a good sleep?"

Kara jumped out of bed faster than thought possible, "How long have you been there?"

"Just for an hour, I was here last night, but you were asleep," he answered back.

"One of these days you will give me a heart attack!"

Trowa got up from his seat, "Well, you should pay more attention then."

"I never hear you coming," Kara sighed.

Trowa just smiles.

"Now, why is it, you were watching me sleep for…"

Kara was cut off by some yelling, "Chang Wufei! Give me that teddybear right now!"

"Oh dear…" Kara giggled.

The two of them leave the room to see Sally and Wufei fighting (again). It was a sight to be seen, well, not really, but for those that did know what was going on. This was going to be quite a show.

"Tell me onna, why do you like this teddybear so much?" Wufei asked.

Sally growled, "Because Chang, the guy who gave it to me, is nice, and asks me how I am everyday."

"But he just writes, you don't know who he is."

"Whoever he is, he's nicer than you!"

"Is it just me, or is this fight familiar in anyway?" Kara asked.

Trowa nods, "It's a lot like the fight three days ago."

"So onna, how are you?"

Sally stared, "What?"

Wufei smirked, "I asked how are you."

"I'm fine…"

Wufei handed her back the teddybear, this time with a ticket, and what looked like a decorated comb, "See you at 7 tomorrow Sally."

Sally stared, "That means…"

Wufei walks away, "Bye Sally."

"Wait one damn minute! You gave me all those things? You've been sending me those notes?" Sally asked.

Turning around, Wufei smirks, "Yes I have, did you like them?"

"Yes."

"Good, then I will see you later," and with that he left.

Kara did everything she could not to break down laughing. She could tell that Sally was confused, after all Wufei had been giving all those things.

"Speaking of which, I'll be seeing you around the same time," Trowa said out of the blue.

Kara turned, "I nearly forgot."

"Don't, see you tomorrow," Trowa replied, walking away.

Sally came up to her, "You too?"

Kara held up the pendent, "Yea…"

At lunch later that day, Kara was just sitting, eating with Nick, and Miroki. She noted that Adam was missing, but then again, he rarely popped up anyways.

Nick grinned as he pulled out two tickets, "Looky here, I have two tickets for the dance club tomorrow night. Are any of you girls going?"

"I might go, I'm not sure," Miroki replied.

Kara smiled, "I'm going, which reminds me, Miroki could you do me a favor tomorrow?"

Miroki nodded slowly, "Okay, what is it?"

"At 6 could you come to my room and try a dress on for me?"

"Kara…" Miroki growled.

"Please? Pretty please?" Kara pleaded.

Miroki sighed as Kara gave her the puppy eyes, "Fine, fine, just no thin straps."

"Okay, I promise, no thin straps," Kara eyes were full of laughter.

"Promise?"

"I promise, which reminds me, I have to meet Hilde now," Kara got up and walked away.

Later, Hilde was standing on the dressmaker's stood for Kara. They were talking about the dance, and well, Kara was nervous.

"So what's the problem?" Hilde asked, checking herself out in the mirror.

Kara sighed, "The problem is I'm not sure I want to go to this dance."

"Don't you like your date?"

"I like him, I just don't know if he likes me," Kara pointed out.

"He wouldn't have done all of this if he didn't like you Kara," Hilde pointed that out.

Kara got up, "I bet anything that Miroki set him up to it. He's just doing that because she either a) blackmailed him, or b) he owes her a favor."

"Why don't you ask him?"

"Ask him what?"

Hilde shook her head as she got down, "Ask him if he likes you! Gee, you are dense sometimes."

"Thanks," Kara muttered, "I can't I'm afraid."

"Afraid of?"

"That he'll say no," Kara sighed, "I don't believe this! I swore a long time ago I'd keep my head straight and my feet to the ground and now look at me! Never before have I been so nervous over a boy!"

"Just ask him, if you don't you'll regret it," Hilde said, "And by the way, thanks for the dress."

~Next Day, 6 o'clock evening~

Quatre was pacing nervously as Kara was putting some finishing touches on her latest project.

"Stop pacing Quatre," Kara murmured.

"I can't, I hope I didn't forget anything…"

Kara smiled, "Look, Miroki will be here any second, the roses you ordered are here, you already went around town, and look, her dress is ready. Now you go and get ready yourself, you hear?"

Quatre looked at her, "Are you sure? What if she doesn't come? Or what if she…"

"Look, if I was able to set Miroki up with you the first time, and can do this again, now go."

Quatre nods, and heads out the door. A few minutes later, Miroki comes knocking, Kara looks up and smiles.

"Good you're here, hurry, you better get change," Kara held up something white.

Miroki glared at her friend, for the white thing was a dress. A strapless dress in fact, and Kara could tell she was going to get it big time.

"I thought I told you sleeves! I will not wear that!" Miroki growled.

Kara held up another piece of white clothing, "This is the jacket that goes with it, you wear it over top, and it's long sleeves, happy?"

"Very."

The white dress went down to her ankles, and had a shorter top layer. The jacket was a small one, long sleeve, which was short, no buttons. Kara hummed as she undid Miroki's hair, styling it with the barrette that Miroki got.

"Looky! You look beautiful!" Kara turned Miroki around.

Miroki gasped, "I don't believe this…"

"By the way this is for you."

Kara handed her friend a single white rose. Miroki gingerly took it from her friend, there was a note attached to it, it read: Dear Miroki, tonight is the night. Find me with these clues, so look around the city tonight. The second rose is, in the place you call home."

Miroki stared at Kara, "The guy knows where I originally live?"

"Probably," Kara shrugged before glancing at her watch, "Oh, look at the time, I have to run."

"Wait, I'm still in your dress, and I can't go around town like this!" Miroki pointed at herself.

Kara studied her, "I think you're beautiful, bye."

She ran out the door before Miroki could say anything or do anything at all. Miroki signed as, she too headed out the door and to her house.

At Relena's home, Relena was waiting for Heero, along with Milliardo and Noin. Though personally, Relena figure her brother was just there to give Heero some kind of speech, while Noin was there to make sure Milliardo wouldn't try to kill Heero. At that moment there was a knock on the door. Standing there was Heero; he gave her a small smile, and stepped in, while giving Milliardo a smirk.

"Yuy…"

"Zechs."

"Bring her back home safely."

"Don't worry, I will," Heero smirked again at Milliardo.

Milliardo just glared at Heero.

Relena took his arm, "Come on Heero, let's go."

Heero stared at Relena; she was wearing a light pink dress with flowers decorated at the hem. She looked beautiful to him, and he was amazed. He nodded, hooking his arm around her arm, and then walking out the door. Though he could have sworn that Noin was making sure that Milliardo didn't follow them.

"I'm surprise that it was you," Relena commented out of the blue.

Heero watched her, "It never came to mind?"

"I did, since the guards didn't see anyone, but I didn't think you were the type to do this."

"I'm not."

Relena stared, "Then why?"

"First, two meddling new pilots, and second, they were right," Heero admitted, then said, "Just don't tell them that."

"Kara and Miroki are quite a pair, they mean well…" Relena said thoughtfully.

Meanwhile a slightly angry Miroki had been riding around town, yes riding. It seems there was a car waiting for her outside, though she couldn't see the driver, she was sure he was smiling at this. She went to Kara's home to get the fourth rose. Knocking on the door, it was opened by Sable, "About time! Here you go, the fourth rose."

Miroki took it, "Sable do you know who is doing this?"

"Yep!"

"Will you tell me?" Miroki asked hopefully.

"Nopies."

Miroki stomped her foot, "Why not? Normally you can't keep a secret so what's the problem?"

"Kara told mom that if I told, that she should ground me for a week," Sable explained.

Miroki just groaned.

At Hilde's place, Hilde was waiting for Duo to arrive. Which he did, Hilde smiled as she opened the door. In the doorway was Duo, dressed up, and grinning from ear to ear as he held out a bunch of flowers for her. Stepping in, Duo stared at Hilde, whom was wearing a black dress, with pictures of red roses sewn on.

Duo gave her a mock bow, "The God of Death is here, so let the fun begin!"

Hilde laughed, "Oh? Shouldn't I then be afraid to go out with the God of Death?"

Pulling her close, Duo shook his head, "Nope, because you're the Goddess of Death."

"You are amazing Duo," Hilde murmured.

"Why's that?"

She kissed him lightly, "Because you never cease to surprise me…"

"Good, now we better go," Duo kissed her back.

"What's the hurry?"

"Miroki should be heading this way, and I promised Quatre to give her something," Duo explained.

"Hilde? Are you there? I got this note to be here," a voice from the door came knocking.

Duo opened the door, to find no other than Miroki there. He handed her another white rose.

"Have a good hunt Miroki," Duo grinned.

Hilde giggled, "Nice dress, I'm sure your date will be surprised."

"Isn't there anyone who could tell me?" Miroki growled.

"We could, be we won't," Duo wagged a finger at her, "Besides that would spoil the fun."

"Damn you Maxwell," Miroki growled under her breath.

In the Wing School dorms, Wufei was waiting for Sally with a sour look on his face. Not that anything remotely bad was bugging him. Not that he minded taking Sally out. It was just that… Sally had over the past few days, seen a side of Wufei that some rarely if not never seen. The door opened to reveal Sally, as she walked into the room. Wufei, whom was looking at the ground in deep thought, did a double take at Sally. He recalled that he had never seen Sally in a dress before, never, ever seen her in a dress before. She was wearing a light blue dress, which hugged her waist and hips before flowing down to her ankles. He mentally kicked himself when he realized that he was staring at her. Wufei just prayed it wasn't with his mouth open.

"You're finally ready onna," Wufei stated.

Sally gave him a quick glare, "You still call me that. I have a name you know."

Wufei smirked, "I know."

The two walked out the dorm, with people taking glances at the couple in shock. One, that Wufei of all people was taking someone out, and second that Sally. The person, whom Wufei fought with the most, was going out with him. Some of the bystanders were whispering 'thank god' or 'maybe now some peace and quiet'. The thought of them going out maybe would mean less yelling from the Alpha dorm. Trust me, the fights between Sally and Wufei were legendary, by any means. As they strolled out of the building, some of the pass teachers were muttering, 'finally' under their breaths.

Wufei opened the car door for Sally, "First dinner, then the dance club."

"I'm looking forward to it," Sally replied.

Wufei for one of the few times gave a real smile, "So am I Sally."

Somewhere in a busy part of town, Miroki was getting out of the car for the 12th and hopefully last time. She sighed as she looked around the place. The driver had taken her, on the request of the last note, to a fancy looking restaurant, where all, the note would say: Here is where the last rose is placed, and friends of ours will meet. Not that Miroki had any clue what that meant. There were so many people around, that she barely heard someone coming up to her. She whirled around, about to demand for the last rose, when she stared. Holding the last rose to her was Quatre, smiling at her.

Miroki took the rose from her, still staring, "Quatre?"

Quatre gently kissed her, "I'm glad you made it Miroki."

"It was you all this time?"

"Yes, it was, and you look beautiful," Quatre holds her hand.

Miroki flushed, "You look handsome yourself."

"I wish I had my camera," a voice behind them commented.

They both broke away to see Trowa and Kara there. Kara was wearing a red dress, with thin straps, and silver pendent around her neck. Trowa had his arm around her waist, and the two were smiling at them. The four friends walked into the restaurant, while Miroki whispered to Kara, "I told you I'd get you back."

Kara giggled, "I don't know whether to yell at you or thank you."

"How about thank me," Miroki smiled.

Dinner went on, without a hitch. Everyone was heading to the dance club. There weren't many people that the girls didn't know, since almost everyone from the school was there. Hilde and Duo were laughing their heads off in a corner, probably Duo saying something funny to her. Sally and Wufei were dancing, though Kara had to do a double take, because it looked like Wufei was enjoying himself. Though nothing made the girls take a second glance more than seeing Heero and Relena. Could we say that Heero was smiling, like really smiling! They were shocked, but happy. At the same time Kara took out her red book, and Miroki her black book. Kara crossed out all of the couples, while Miroki crossed out the people that owned her something or that she blackmailed. Then both girls gave each other high-fives getting a strange look from both their dates. They shrugged and giggled before going their separate ways. Everyone was having fun, and talking. While some people were pointing to other couples. It was rumored that Nick had something up his sleeve of the next assembly, that of course if he doesn't get caught. Unfortunately, due to some unfortunate accident the D.J. had to leave early. Leaving anyone who wanted to play music. Some kids who were probably a bit drunk, started playing really loud music, and it didn't help much that they were turning the music way up. Sally and Wufei were the first to leave, since some of those drunken kids were some of the students. Wufei made a mental note to beat the leaving daylights out of them for ruining the whole thing. Then he decided to follow Sally back to her dorm. Heero and Relena were the next to leave; it was around 11 o'clock, and knowing a certain Peacecraft, if Heero didn't bring Relena home. There was going to be hell to pay, and there was only so much Noin could do. Quatre and Miroki left for the school, since Quatre figured it wasn't a good idea that they would be in the dance club, since some of the single males were getting rowdy. Kara and Trowa didn't leave to say the least, they just took a walk outside, but they didn't head for the school, they headed for the park. The last to leave was Duo and Hilde. Hilde figured it would be better if they left, and besides, then she could talk to Duo alone.

Milliardo was pacing in the living room, when the doorbell rang. He watched, red faced as Heero walked in with Relena.

"Where have you been?" Milliardo asked.

Relena blinked, "At the dance club of course," before he could say thing she added, "And it's normal to stay out late! You worry to much, and stop!"

Milliardo was taken back, "Relena…"

"I know you're worried, but I'm growing up."

Heero stated, "I'll look after her."

"I know, and that's the part I'm not willing to give in to."

Back at the school dorms, Quatre and Miroki were walking the quiet hallways hand and hand Miroki smiled to herself, thinking how perfect tonight was. While Quatre watched her, wondering what she was thinking. As if knowing what as going on in Quatre mind, Miroki commented, "Tonight was just perfect"

"I agree," Quatre said thoughtfully, "But I know how to make this night more perfect."

Miroki stopped walking and turned, Quatre smiled, strange he thought to himself, that a few months ago; he would be blushing redder than ever by now, and probably stumbling over his own words. Now it didn't matter, Miroki was someone he could talk to, someone who he tell everything to. In fact, if push comes to shove, at his sisters failed to do was done without help. Well, almost he amended, there was some help, but otherwise, it was just normal. Without another thought or hesitation, he pulled Miroki into a deep kiss. Miroki was surprised that Quatre was making the first move, but went with it anyways, kissing him right back. As they broke apart, Quatre gave her a warm smile that melted her heart.

"Now, everything is perfect, and I wouldn't have it any other way," Quatre replied. Miroki smiled like crazy, wondering what to say. Quatre noticed the time, "It's getting late."

Miroki shook her head, "Let's stay here for a bit longer."

"Doing what?"

"I don't know, how about just talk," Miroki replied, leaning onto his side in a lazy fashion.

"Okay then, we talk"

In the park, Kara looked up at the sky, it was quiet, no one else was around, and Kara needed to really know a few things.

"Trowa."

Trowa looked at her, "Yes?"

"About this whole Valentine thing, I was wondering. If you have any regrets having Miroki talk to into it?"

"Huh?"

Kara forced a smile, "I'm not that dense Trowa, Miroki had something to do with this, and it was either a favor or blackmail."

Trowa frowned, "You didn't like it tonight?"

"No, I loved it, but I want to know how you feel about this," Kara explained.

Trowa turned to face her, making Kara face him, "Why do you want to know that?"

Kara leaned on him, looking at the ground, "I-I want to know, because… God, I must sound like a total baka right now. I want to know, because really do like you Trowa. Only Miroki has ever known that."

It was quiet, and Kara was thankful it was dark. Since she could have sworn that she was becoming redder than a rotten tomato.

Trowa cupped her chin, making her look right at him, "I don't regret it Kara. Never have regretted this."

"That's all I wanted to know."

Trowa gave her a small smile, and kissed her, "Good, now let's head back, it's almost midnight."

The two headed back to the dorms, arm and arm, and fingers locked together, threading through each other's.

Author's Note: Okay… that's good for me at least. Did anyone get cavities from reading that? Finally done, this one. Okay, so what do you think? Tell me!

Thanks to Female Mewtwo, creator of Miroki Sekkio, and she planned some of this stuff too. Also one more thing, I did! Okay? I finally did that mushy thing between Kara and Trowa so stop bugging me! Of course she's going to want more, knowing her, but I did, so there! Also the last scenes between Miroki and Quatre, and Kara and Trowa was rewritten by Female Mewtwo.

So what next? What about the new Gundams? Anymore mush coming? What's the plan now? Next time, on Wing School!
