*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"Well, if you want to we can stay here until you guy gotta go."

"YEAH!!!"

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

 They're so funny, Relena thought, bemused. Heero won the most games and had gotten a HUGE green stuffed dragon. Duo was going nuts. No wait! He was beyond nuts…

"HOW DID YOU WIN??? I PLAYED MORE GAMES!!!!"

"And lost practically all of them." muttered Hilde.

"Are you saying that I can't play?" asked Heero, suppressing a grin (A/N: Wow. He smiles ^_^).

"YES!-I mean-no...um....AHHH!!!!!" They all bursted into laughter.

One by one they all went home. Each of them thanked her with much enthusiasm. She told them they were welcome to come anytime they wanted. Soon only Hilde, Duo, and Heero [banging awawy in the arcade. Duo's desparate! -_-'] were left. She walked them to the gate.

"Did you guys have fun?"

"Heck yeah!"

Heero only nodded. He couldn't do much because he was holding the dragon plushie.

"You guys can always come over again. Maybe you actually win." Relena teased Duo.

"You bet I will. Just you see. I'll kick all your butts.[Hilde snorted and muttered under her breathe as she walked away. Relena caught the words "Kodak moment" and supressed a giggle] I'll be ruler of all video game. I'll-" he was interrupted by another loud voice.

"Hey! It's Relena right?"

They all looked up to see Zeke walking towards them, smiling cheerfully.

"Hi! Guys, this is Zeke. I bumped into him at lunch."

"Literally," Duo muttered. "It's him." he whispered to Heero. But Heero didn't hear. He was busy giving Zeke the death glare.

"Where'd that come from?" Zeke asked, pointing at the dragon. [the dragon that was loosing some stuffing around the middle {where Heero is holding it} poor thing]

"Heero won it from Relena's arcade." Duo answered. "Cool, huh?"

"I'll say. You have an arcade?" he said, turning to Relena.

She blushed. "Yeah. You could come over and see it sometime."

"That'd be great." He smiled cheerfully.

"So...."

"Well, we'd better be going, right Heero?"

Heero did nothing.

"I take that as a yes. See ya!"

Duo dragged Heero away. He was still glaring at Zeke.

"What's wrong with him?" Zeke asked.

Relena shrugged.

Zeke glanced at his watch. "Hey," he said suddenly. "You wanna go out Friday?"

"Huh?!?"

"You know. Go to the movies or out to eat or something. That kind of stuff."

"I know. I was just kinda surprise because you - well - asked so suddenly." Relena's face was getting to the point that would make tomatoes jeleous.

"So?"

"'So' what?"

"Do you want to? Or is that guy that was giving me that look your boyfriend already?"

"Huh?!? Heero's not my boyfriend! He's just a friend." If it was possible, Relena turned a shade redder. "And I guess I'd like to, um, go out with you."

"Great. I'll pick you up at 6:30. Is that alright?"

Relena nodded.

"OK." He glanced at his watch. "Well, I gotta go now. See ya!"

"Yeah. See ya."

Relena walked slowly to her room and plopped onto her bed.

"This is one heck of a week."

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

*~*~Next Day at Lunch~*~*

"NO WAY!!!"

"Yes way." Relena said gloomily.

"Ohmygod! O-MY-GOD!!!!" Half the cafe turned.

"Shut up, Cat! The whole world doesn't have to know!" Dorothy hissed.

Relena tured red again.

"But what are you gonna wear? What about your hair and make-up? Do you have the right shoes?"

"I don't need to dress up. We're only going to the movies."

"Yeah, but it's a date with Zeke Miller! You need to look perfect. I mean..."

Relena leaned over to whisper to Hilde. "Is she always like that?"

Hilde shrugged. "I guess."

"Really? She seemed like a regular person at first."

Hilde laughed. "That's what they all think."

"Do any of the guys know?" asked Dorothy.

"I don't really want them to," Relena looked at the crazed Catherine."but it looks like they'll have no chose."

*~*~Guys Table~*~*

"Guess what happened yesterday!"

"Umm..let's see...you bumped into another pole?" asked Trowa.

"Nope!!"

"Oh, you bumped into a girl then she kicked your ass?"

"NO!!"

The whole table (except Duo) cracked up.

"Humph." He stuck his nose in the air and crossed his arms.

"Then we'll ask Heero." They all turned their backs on Duo and faced Heero.

"No! Wait! I'll tell!"

"OK. What was the girl's name? I'd like to congratulate her on her victory kick."

"Shut up!"

They all laughed again.

"Umm, is it just me or is Catherine going nuts?"

"I'd say you're right. Wonder why." said Quatra.

Trowa shrugged. "Iono,"

"Anyway..." Duo tried to draw some attention to himself. "We were just leaving Relena's house when that Zeke guy came over."

The other guys were silent.

"TELL!!!"

He grinned triumphantly.

"Well..."

*~*~Back to the Girls~*~*

Catherine finally calmed down.

"Hey Relena," she asked."Do you really like Zeke? I mean really like him?"

Relena looked thoughtful. "Well, he seems nice enough. I mean he's good looking and all, but..." She glanced in Heero's direction. "I don't know. I'm kinda scared."

"Yeah," Hilde chirped. "What if he turns out to be a horny toad?"

The other girls sweatdropped.

"Hilde!"

"Hey, it could happen."

"Isn't Friday tomorrow?" asked Dorothy.

"Yes..."

"OMG!!" Once again, they lost Catherine.

"Will you guys all come over tomorrow? To help me get ready?"

"Of course!"

"Duh,"

"We'd have come even if you didn't ask."

"Get ready for what?"

They all looked up. The guys loomed over them.

"Who get ready for what." Duo added.

"Well Re-" Catherine began.

The girls all clamped their hands over her mouth.

"Eavsdropping, eh?" Dorothy tsked them. "You guys are gonna get in trouble someday."

"Like today," Hilde muttered.

"You guys never answered my question." Quatra pointed out.

"Well, um...it's none of your business." Hilde stuttered.

"Don't worry. Catherine will tell me. Then I'll call all of you." Trowa said.

Catherine freed herself from the hands that imprisoned her big mouth.

"I will NOT tell you!!"

"Well, for one thing it's about Relena." Wufei said. "'Cause she's beginning to look like a tomato."

The girls were spared an answer when the bell rang.

"Saved by the bell," Hilde said cheerfully. They fled, leaving some confused guy behind.

"They mentioned Friday night at Relena's," Duo recalled. "So here's the plan....."

They all agreed and went their seperate ways.
