The next morning...
"Are you sure we should be here Duo?" Hilde asked as a man had opened the gates for them.
"Don't worry Hilde." Duo replied. "We talked about it before the mall incident. If we didn't figure out something there, then we'd just have to meet without everybody."
Duo got out of the car and opened the door to let Hilde out. When they got to the door, Duo rang the doorbell.
"This way please Mr. Maxwell." Pagan answered as he led them through the front door. "I'm sure Master Heero we'll be down soon."
Duo and Hilde took a seat on the couch. Five minutes had come and gone before Duo saw Heero slowly come down the stairs. Slowly and cautiously.
"Uuh...Heero?" Duo asked watching Heero continue walking toward them, glancing suspiciously around himself. "Heero, why do you keep looking around?" he asked as Heero took a seat in a chair next to the couch.
"..."
"Heero, you okay?" Duo asked becoming concerned. "You look like you're in enemy territory."
"..."
"Hello Hilde." Relena said from behind the couch.
Hilde turned around. "Oh, hey Relena. How have you been?" Hilde asked smiling at Relena.
"Oh, do we have guests?" Mrs. Dorlain asked as she started walking down from the stairs. "Hello."
Duo looked at Heero. "Heero, is there somewhere we can talk?"
"We're fine here. Talk." Heero replied looking around himself again.
"Uuhh..." Duo responded rubbing his head. "Hilde, why don't you go with the others and talk?"
"Alright." Hilde replied as Duo helped her off the couch.
Relena smiled at her and escorted her through to a back room. "This is always a nice place to talk. Mother, perhaps you should go read that book you wanted to read earlier?"
Mrs. Dorlain laughed. "Trying to get rid of me? Okay, I'll see you later dear." she said as she exited the room.
Hilde smiled at Relena. "So? How have you and Heero been lately?"
Relena tucked some hair behind her ear. "Well..."
"That bad? Oh, come on Relena, it can't be that bad!" Hilde laughed.
Relena didn't laugh with her.
Hilde stopped laughing. "Oh no, I'm sorry! I guess he isn't getting along very well with your family?"
Relena didn't reply.
"Oh, come on Relena!" Hilde laughed. "We're friends, you can tell me!"
Back to the guys...
"What?!" Duo shouted. "You've gotta be kiddin' me?!"
Heero shook his head gravely and started to look around again as the doorbell rang and Pagan answered it. "Wow, that's too bad man."
"What's too bad?" Quatre asked as he and Dorothy stepped into the room.
Duo looked up at Quatre. "Hey, I didn't know you were coming."
"I contacted Heero earlier." Quatre replied.
"Where's Hilde?" Dorothy asked.
"They went in that back room." Duo said pointing to the last room on the right down a long hallway.
"Thank you. Good day, Mr. Winner." Dorothy replied as she started to walk away.
Duo smirked at Quatre. "Just couldn't stand the first name basis, could you?"
Quatre frowned at Duo. "It's a hard habit to break. Besides, what were you two talking about?"
Duo scratched his head. "Hey Heero, feel like starting from the beginning?"
"...Last time." Heero growled.

To the night when Heero and Relena were dropped off with Mrs. Dorlain...
"Keys, keys, keys." Mrs. Dorlain mumbled to herself. "Here they are." she said as she unlocked the door. "Honey, we're home!" she shouted as she stepped into the room.
Relena quickly looked toward the couch and realized the letter was still there. She sighed in relief. 'Thank goodness. Although...now I have to tell him face to face.'
Mrs. Dorlain looked around. "How strange. My husband should have been here to greet us. Oh well. Heero, would you be a dear and please close the door?"
Heero did as he was told, but the moment he touched the knob to close it, a vase on a table next to him shattered into a million pieces! He instinctively ducked behind the couch and looked around.
"Now honey, that's not nice!" He suddenly heard Mrs. Dorlain shout towards the top of the stairs. Cautiously, Heero poked his head out and looked up the stairs. Holding a 9mm. was Mr. Dorlain himself.
Mrs. Dorlian rushed up the stairs. "That is not how we treat our guests." she said calmly taking the gun from Relena's father. "It's alright Heero, he's not armed anymore!" she shouted out.
Heero cautiously came out from behind the couch. He looked over at Relena. She hadn't moved an inch.
Mrs. Dorlain grabbed her husband's hand. "Darling, there's someone you need to meet." she said as she started walking down the stairs with him. Heero continued to eye him suspiciously. "This is the gundam pilot Heero Yuy, and by the way you've just misbehaved I'm sure you know why he's here."
Mr. Dorlain just growled at Heero.
Heero, in return, growled back.
Relena remained silent.
"Oh, isn't that something." Mrs. Dorlain smiled. "You both growl the same way. Maybe that's why Relena likes Heero."
In response to that, Mr. Dorlain growled louder.
Heero then, in return, growled louder also.
Mrs. Dorlain frowned. "This isn't a growling contest. Now, let's go to the kitchen. Dinner was almost done right before I left."
Everyone walked into the kitchen cautiously as Heero and Mr. Dorlain kept glaring at each other.
Mrs. Dorlain walked over to the oven. "Oh good, it's done. Please sit down everyone."
Heero was about to reach for Relena's hand to help her sit down when he was suddenly whacked on the head.
"Honey." Mrs. Dorlain said calmly as she started to put the roast on the table. "Don't whack Heero with a dinner plate, it's very bad manners."
Mr. Dorlain walked over to Relena and helped her sit down. "I can take care of my own daughter." he said as he took his own seat.
Heero just glared at him as he started to sit down. Unfortunately, Mr. Dorlain knocked the chair too far away.
"Honey." Mrs. Dorlain said as she started to put the rolls on the table. "Please don't knock Heero's chair away right before he sits down."
Heero just growled at Mr. Dorlain from the floor while Relena covered her face.
"Please be more polite." Mrs. Dorlain replied as she started to serve everyone. Heero got back up and picked up his chair. He sat back down and looked at the food.
"I hope you like it Heero. It's a family recipe." Mrs. Dorlain said as she began to eat. "Oh wait. I forgot the dessert."
Heero and Mr. Dorlain started growling at each other again.
"Heero, please don't." Relena replied softly.
Heero looked at her for a brief second when he felt something hit his head. He turned around and saw a roll lying on the table. He began to grit his teeth.
"Please." Relena prompted.
Heero glared at Mr. Dorlain. He observed the food that was on his plate. He picked up his spoon to start eating when Mrs. Dorlain came back in with bowls of chocolate ice cream.
She set a bowl in front of everyone and took her seat again. "Please enjoy."
Heero looked at the bowl of ice cream and Mr. Dorlain.
Suddenly, a strange thump was heard from across the room. Everyone turned to look.
"Sweetheart, why did you throw a roll at the wall?" Mrs. Dorlain asked right before she looked at Heero. "Oh dear."
Relena covered her face quickly in embarrassment.
Heero started to growl at Mr. Dorlain again as he felt the cold ice cream trickle down his left cheek.
"Nice hat." Mr. Dorlain replied as he began to eat again.
