Prologue

It has been three years, three years since she last saw him.  Three years since they broke up.  She never could have imagined that she would come upon him again after three years.  She would never have thought herself to have such a reaction.

**

Three years ago:

"I don't think we should see each other anymore."

"Is that all you want to say?" He got ready to leave.

"No!  Wait!  I will still love you."

He turned around. "I don't understand."

"I…I…don't understand either.  I'll be moving next week."

"Why the break up?" 

"It is for the best."

"?"

"We don't have enough communication right now.  How do you expect us to communicate when we are hundreds of miles apart?"

"I don't know, but I understand."

"I'm glad you do."

"Goodbye…"

With that he turned and walked away.

"Yes…goodbye."

Relena Peacecraft looked at her new school.  She was a freshman at the University and she was lucky enough to be able to be accepted at this school.  Although, she would miss her friends back at home, she could not pass up this promising opportunity.   Today had been her first day here.  The day passed on without any incident, except for one special event.  It was still fresh in her mind.

The morning went smoothly.  Relena Peacecraft was now headed towards the cafeteria for lunch.  She was indeed very hungry.  I could use for a hot lunch right now.   There were many things that she still needed to get used to, like how professors just came in, lectured, and left without paying the utmost attention to any student.  She was so wrapped up in her thoughts that she didn't see another person coming. 

'Crash'!  They both walked into each other.  The impact caused both of them to fall onto the floor. 

"Sorry."  They both mumbled an embarrassed apology.  He dusted off her books and handed them to her. 

"Thank you…"

His deep Prussian blue eyes captured Relena.  They reminded her of someone…

"…Heero?" she asked, her heart pounding in her chest.

"Relena…" he answered. 

"Long time no see!"   Relena could feel face heat up like she was in the hot sun.

"Hn."

"You're attending this school too?"

He gave a quick nod. 

"New around here?"  He asked.

"Yes."

"Where are you headed?"

"To the cafeteria."

"I'll escort you."

"Thanks, I appreciate it."  In a certain way, she felt relieved…she felt her heart slow down a bit.

Why did I feel like that? She asked herself.  She looked at Heero.  He didn't seem to notice anything.

Then they both walked quietly to the cafeteria, side by side.
