How to: Brake the silence. By: Aya

Trowa hated new schools almost as much as going shopping. Which that morning he had to do both. 'Why do I need new shoes and stuff. If the shoes he has on are just fine? Well at least he talked Heero and Quatre to come to school too. They'll be here in a day or so.' Trowa walked to his first class. He knew only two people in the whole dame class. Trowa walked over to Duo and sat next to him. Jen was behind Duo and passing him a love note right before the teacher came in. She was a small woman, but size can be deceiving. Trowa took out his notebook and text for the class. He thought he was ready. Then Duo passed a note to him. It was from Jen. He opened it.

'Hey Trow. Don't bother taking that out we'll be leaving in a min. it'll just slow you down. Love Jen.' Trowa looked up at Jen. 'She was looking out for me? Or did she think it would takes me forever to pack and didn't want her boyfriend to look dumb as well?' He nodded then packed the class things away. The teacher said to the class that they were to go to the buses now. Trowa sat next to Duo and Jen on the bus. The teacher had placed him there after Jen had pointed out that, her and Duo were dating and they may need a person between them. He hated the feeling of being stuck. He hated being the referee all the time. He couldn't see how they could be in love. Nether one slept in the same bed for more then one night. Ether Duo had kicked Jen out of the bed or vice versa. He could hear them from his room it's not like he was depth or anything. He thought about moving but then Jen had told him no if some one was moving it would be her, so he didn't say anything about how loud they were. And he was told when she was leaving and not to be alarmed. She made him breakfast every morning. That he thought was odd. Little did he know that Jen wasn't the one who made breakfast. It was there new roommate. Rai.

She was a small girl with kind eyes and tender looking hands. She smiled at him, but had never looked at him. He first thought that he scared her. But now he was starting to think She liked him. But that's what Jen said any way. She was in the other seat. Reading her book. 'She reads a lot for a freshman. Is she a freshman? How old is she? No Trowa look what happened last time you told some one you liked them. they died on you. Thats not good. Shit I think I like her too. Fuck well I can't tell her tha.' "TROWA!!!!!" he snapped out of it. "You've been looking at Rai for a wail now is something wrong?" He looked over to Jen. "No I was daydreaming." Jen looked in shock then narrowed her eyes. "About her?" Trowa's eyes dropped to the floor. Jen smiled then whispered so only Trowa can hear her. "You like her don't you. Ask her out she's too afraid of what you'll say go on I promise not to fight." He looked up at her. "I can't.." Jen was ready to kill him by now he looked like a lovesick puppy dog and now he said he couldn't. "Why the hell not?" Trowa looked up in time to duck out of the way, of Duo fist. "Duo what was that for?" I was aiming for Trow babe not you." Trowa got up and moved to Rai's seat.

Rai looked up at her new partner. She almost jumped when her eyes meet Trowa's. 'Oh god it's him. Look at those eyes. Oh god I wish I was. No I'll do it. I'll ask him out.' She turned to him. "Trowa will you go out with me please." When he just stared at her. She inched away and curled up with her book. 'Rejected. Again.' He took out a peace of paper. He did this a lot when he was asked a difficult question. He would weigh the pros and cons. Then make a dissection. She had seen him do that to Jen once. She had asked him if he wanted to go shopping two weeks ago or right before school and he had chosen to wait, witch pissed Jen off a lot. 'I think she just wanted to go shopping with a guy, and Duo was gone some wear.'

Trowa weigh the pros and cons all the way to the art museum. And most of the way back. He didn't say anything to Rai, but he did lean in to Jen a lot on the bus ride back to school. They all pored out of the bus. Duo ran next to Trowa and started talking to him about some engine type thingy. And Jen stayed back for Rai to get off the bus. "So rai how much do you like Trowa? And don't say 'Oh I don't.' Because I've known you long enough. To know that when the guy you like sits next to you. You're whole dame face turns beat red. So lets put it this way. If you were home alone with, and could do any thing to 'Him'. What would it be?" Rai's face turned the deepest red Jen had ever seen any one's face. "should I take that as 'I'd jump him right now if he'd look my way with a lil' love in his eyes.' Am I right." For an answer Jen got a giggle and her best friends retreating back. "I thought so." She said under her breath. Then yelled. "I'll take that as a yes." Jen shock her head. Then ran to her next class.

Duo got the note at lunch and made one for Trowa. Then the lovely couple made up some lame date that they almost forgot about. And left Rai and Trowa to go home alone. 'Grate what am I going to say?' He thought before the turned the key to there shared home. "Trowa?" Her voice was so sweet he had to stop to look down at her. "Ya Rai?" She didn't turn she was afraid of what he would say. "You didn't answer me. I can take it." He smiled slowly then opened the door for her. "Rai wait a min. don't go running to your room. I have your answer I just don't know how to say it. So I'll show you." He closed the door. Turned to her. He lifted her chine up so he could kiss her. There was a spark of heat, and then she gave in to him. He pushed her back till her back was on the wall. He picked her up. Still kissing he stopped in the hall. There rooms were across the hall from each other. Her door was on the right his on the left. "Were do you want me to take you?" It would have sounded innocent to her, if she wasn't so aroused. But what he was asking was not were you want to go, it was were do you want me to take your virginity at? She sighed and pointed to his room. "Yours I want your room to be ours." He smiled as he laid her on his bed. They made sweet slow love that night. Jen and Duo came home, but Rai was in her own world. And now it had Trowa in it too.

The next morning she woke up with out him there. It was Saturday. "Trowa?" She looked at the clock. It was 2:03 a.m. She looked around the room and saw him standing by the window nothing on. He looked a little wet? She walked up to him laid her hand on his back. "Trowa? Is there something wrong?" She looked up at his face. "Ya I had a bad dream that's all. Go back to sleep. I'll be there in a min." She had a stubborn streak that only a few knew about. She turned to the lap and turned it on. "Trowa Barton I'm you're lover now so you can't just hide stuff on me I want to help so tell me what's wrong." Trowa's eyes went wide she looked like a little worrier. Ready for a big war. 'I trust her enough. To tell her but does she love me enough to stay?' "Ok fine sit I'll tell you but you know I love you. Right?" She nodded. "Just as I know I love you as well.' She added. He paced then turned to her. "I was raped a lot as a child. Too many men to count, too many dirty places to remember them all. But I can still feel it. And it has nothing to do with you. I just get them out of the blue. I was hoping they would stop but they never do. They just don't happen every night any more. So if you don't want me any more I understand." She got up went to the bathroom. Came back out. 'she's leaving me here alone.' She came back in to the bedroom, He had seated himself. She walked up to him and sat on his lap. "I love you, Trowa I could never stop. You know that. I under stand you need time to heal but please let that time be with me. Please just don't push me away." Trowa lifted her chine and kissed her lips gently. "Rai I love you and I want a life with you." He stopped, lifted her. He set her back in the chair. He walked over to his dresser dower. "I have kept this because I was found with it around my neck. I think it's from my mother. Rai." She looked up at him. Tease in her eyes. "Will you marry me." She leapt out of the chair and ran to Jen and Duo's room. Jen was sitting in bed reading and Duo was a sleep. "HE.. HE . HE wants to marry me!!!!!!!!!!" Jen looked up at her. "And you thought he would want something else?" Rai stopped thought then shook her head. "good job Rai But can talk about this in the morning?" this coming from a very tired Duo. "Rai I think he's sleepy and so am I. I should have been in bed hours ago. Good night. And good luck.as a wife." Rai's eyes weld with tears. She ran back to Trowa. "YES!!!! I love you." He slipped the ring on her finger and kissed her with all the love in his heart.

This is about one of my best friends. Her name is really Stacy, but my school is having some problems with fan fictions right now so I thought it best if I just called her by her nickname. Oh well I hope you love it. And I hope she likes it too. I kinda got writers block in the middle of the story so it might have gotten a lil choppy. Love always, Aya
