Chapter 8
"I'm cold." the princess exclaimed sighing as she rubbed her hands together to keep warm.
"I told you we should have ridden in the limo." Lina said sighing as it started to snow. "It's 70degrees out here. We're not quite at the beach yet Relena. "You can be so stubborn sometimes Relena.'
"I already told you. I don't want to ride in the limo because it makes me feel different."
"You are different Relena. You're a princess you're expected to be different than everyone else."
"I don't want to be different!" The girl yelled empasionetly. "I want to fit in! I want to be normal! I want to wake up one day and not have to worry about this war!"
"Relena." Lina said softly putting her arm around Relena's shoulder.
"No one ever said that being a princess would be easy." Relena stated crying.
"I know, but it's your duty." Lina stated trying to get her to snap out of it. 'Relena what's really wrong?'
"Sometimes I just want to give it all up!" Relena yelled crying even harder. "This is why Heero doesn't like me hun? Because I'm a princess!"
"Relena, no one ever said he didn't want you."
"He doesn't okay! The way he looks at me when I was around. His eyes said 'what are you doing here? Don't you know you're not wanted? "Relena sobbed.
"I'll call the limo and we can go home." Lina stated as she reached for her cell phone.
"No!" Relena yelled. "I don't want to go home! I want to stay here!"
"Why Relena? What's the use?"
"I just want to stay her dammit!" Relena snapped rudefully.
"Relena! Princesses don't cuss." Lina said 'this is really eating her up.'
"I don't care anymore about what a princess has to do okay! I just want to be normal don't you hear me!"
"Relena, I hear you. But how is just standing here crying gonna fix anything. Come on we can go home, and the cooks can make you some soup to warm you up."
"How is soup gonna make this better!"
"It used to Relena, whenever you got mad at something you ate."
"Used to is the key word here, Lina. I would just eat and become fat and be shallow about everything. Maybe that's why Heero hates me. Because I'm a shallow little brat."
"You are not a shallow little brat."
"I am to! You're just saying that because I'm a princess and all. You guys all probably laugh at me when I leave the room."
"Relena we do not laugh at you."
"Nice try Lina but I think I know when I'm shallow."
"Shallow people don't know they are shallow."
"Are you calling me shallow!?"
"You called yourself shallow remember?"
"Are you saying now that I'm stupid too!"
"No Relena!" Lina yelled as Relena started walking away.
"Don't follow me." she muttered in a deadly voice. "It's obvious we were never friends to begin with. So don't follow me just because you don't want me to be hurt. You wanted this trip to happen because you knew I would invite you to go along too. You wanted a vacation so bad you were willing to convince me to go one on!"
"Relena! We are to friends! And I don't want to see you hurt because you are my friend. And I didn't want to come here in the first place. I wanted to stay home. I hate traveling you know that!"
"Shut up Lina. Go back to the house. It's obvious you want to."
Lina started crying as Relena started walking off. She wanted to run to her and comfort me but couldn't because Relena didn't want her to. 'We used to be so close Relena. What happened?... I know what happened, Heero happened right Relena. It's his fault right? Don't worry Relena, I'll make his pay for ever making you cry.' she smiled evilly. 'No one ever makes me fight with my friends and gets away with it.'
*Flashback*
"Dou come on!" Quatra yelled following Dou as he left out of the house. "You have been advioding me and Trowa since last night! What's wrong?"
"I think you of all people should know!"
"Listen about what I said last night."
"I don't want to hear it Quatra! What happened last night clearly says for itself." and with that the God of Death walked out of the room.
*End of Flashback*
Quatra sighed as he fell onto his bed. 'This is great!' he stated sarcastically. 'We are now one big gigantic family!' "This is soo bad!"
"What would you like Mr. Jones?" she asked to kindly old gentleman as he sat down in a booth.
"I'd like the special. Thank you very much, Mako. A bowl of Vegetable and Beef soup with as small salad. And a glass of tea."
"What kind of dressing would you like on your salad?" she asked smiling. "We have Ranch, Thousand Islands, Italian, and all of the flavors I mentioned come in Fat Free versions."
"I'd like Thousand Islands."
"Sure. It'll be out in about 15 minutes." she added as she picked up the menu from the table and went to serve the next customer. "Here's your soup." she stated happily as she sat the order infront of the man. "Thank you Mako. And if it isn't any trouble, Can I ask you a question?"
'A question?' Mako asked herself. 'How harmless could that be?' "Sure."
"Can you take your hair down?" Mr. Jones asked smiling.
'Take my hair down? Is this guy nuts?' but she did it anyway.
"You look beautiful with it down." he commented. "Why don't you wear it down all of the time?"
"Health regulations, Mr. Jones."
"That's crazy. In my day people did a lot worse than wear their hair down..." Mako sighed, but kept a smile on her face. "Well I gotta go, Mako. Have a good day. See you tomorrow right?"
"Right." As Mako reached to pick the tray up she noticed a note on it, all it said on the cover was Mako. 'No harm in reading it right?' she questioned herself as she noticed exactly who's righting it was. She unfolded it and read 'Listen we need to talk all right? Met me after work outside the door. Love, Kinal.'
"Great." Mako muttered shaking her head. Sometimes she just didn't understand Kinal. She knew that she met well and all, but still. Sometimes she was just to blonde for her own good. Looks like I gotta tell someone about it. She sighed.
Hilde stared outside her window. 'I'm sorry Dou.' she muttered softly as if her silent apology would somehow reach him. 'I really am.' Sometimes Hilde didn't really know who she was in life. All she really knew was that her and Dou were an item. But was that enough? Was having a relationship with someone she loved enough for her? Sure she loved Dou, there was no question there. But her real question was weither or not Dou and her would work out. Even though they fought a lot she still cared. A lot. She just, just couldn't understand Dou sometimes, and when he forgot things his smile was so cute. And the way he kissed her was so enjoyable. She smiled blissfully. Wait! Was him looking cute and kissing well, enough for a relationship to last? Was that a good long-term investment? Was Dou ready for kids? Did Dou want kids? She sure did. She always wanted a big family. But her and Dou fought too much. Every once and a while was okay but all the time? She shook her head. Ever since this war started everything just got worse. Maybe she and Dou weren't meant to last.
