"Are you both sure about this?" Zechs asked, looking at the two men standing before him.
"Yup. This guy has no real background on his files. I've called up all the places that were listed in the files and none of them have anything on him," Duo said, looking at Zechs.
"What about his connections?" Zechs asked, looking at the other man.
"They've only known him since about the time that he and Relena started dating," Heero said, looking up at Zechs from where he sat.
"I knew that there was something wrong about him, but unfortunately, I've got no more information to lend to you two. The only one that does or will may be Relena and Pagan," Zechs said as Duo and Heero both stood up and walked towards the door.
"Thanks," Heero and Duo both said as they nodded to Zechs and walked out.
"You don't think that this guy could be the one that's sending those letters do you?" Duo asked as they both made their way back to their offices.
"I'm not really sure, Duo. He may seem like the type, but I'll have to get more information from Relena and Pagan," Heero said as he stopped in front of his door with Duo.
"Alright then, but just remember, you've got me and three others here to help you," Duo said, realizing how much a good thing Relena is to Heero.
'I'll have to have a chat with her soon,' Duo thought as he walked down to his office, smirking.
"So, how was your date, Hilde?" Relena asked as she, Hilde, Dorothy and Catherine all sat down at her office.
"I wouldn't really know. Duo said that he had something really important to do and had to cancel," Hilde said, crossing her arms over her chest.
"Have you seen him at all today?" Catherine asked, looking at her.
"No…but its not even noon yet," Hilde said as she smirked at her friends.
"I hope Duo knows what he's gotten himself into," Dorothy said, smiling at the thought.
"Trust me, I'll make sure he knows," Hilde said as they all laughed.
"So, how is your bodyguard, Relena," Catherine asked, looking at her friend.
"Y-Heero seems alright. I think I might have him talking to me a bit more," Relena said as she remembered yesterday.
"Well, if I had to choose, I'd ask him not to," came a voice from the door.
"Sally, what are you doing here?" Dorothy asked, looking up at her.
"I got tired of listening to Wufei talking about 'the injustice of having women working with men' bit," Sally said as she sat down with the rest of the girls.
"Well, at least we know that he's still breathing," Hilde said as she still had her smirk.
"Yeah, for now anyways…so back to the topic with you and Heero," Sally said as she smirked back at Hilde.
"Um…"
"Yeah, you two came in here today seeming a bit different," Hilde said, her smirk widening.
"We just kind of…understand each other a bit more…that's all," Relena said as her secretary's voice came on the intercom.
"Ms. Relena, a Mr. Yuy is on line one and Mr. Lese is on line two."
"Thank you," Relena said as she ignored the look from the girls and walked over to her vid-phone. "Heero?"
"Your brother wants to see you," Heero said as he looked up from his computer to Relena.
"Um…Heero…Chr…I mean, Mr. Lese is on the other line…and I was wondering…"
"I'll be right there," Heero said as he quickly got up and closed his line.
"Do you want us to leave," Dorothy asked, getting up along with the girls.
"Oh…you all don't have to if you don't want to," Relena said as she looked down at the blinking red light that was on line two.
"I've got to get back and help Wufei with the rest of the supplies," Sally said as she smiled at them and left.
"Trowa said he needed me to finish some important files for him before the end of the day," Dorothy said as she followed Sally out.
"I've got to start looking for Duo," Hilde said as she put back on her smirk and left.
"Lady Une wanted me to deliver some papers to Quatre," Catherine said as she grabbed the folder she put down and left.
'I'm glad that they all left, but…' Relena's thinking was stopped as her door opened and closed silently as Heero slowly made his way to her, seeing that she hasn't opened her line yet.
"Now?" Relena asked as she saw him lean against the wall that was behind her, but was out of the vid-phones line of vision.
When Heero nodded, she slowly reached over and pushed the line two button, and Chris' face showed up, agitated that he had to wait for her, but smiled as soon as he saw her.
"Good…"
"What do you want, Mr. Lese?" Relena asked, wondering why he would call her now.
"Relena…"
"Mr. Lese…"
"Very well then…I wanted to ask you out on a date," Chris said, smiling up at her.
"No," Relena said, noticing that he looked different then from what she remembered.
"Why? I've checked your schedule and breaks and I think that…"
"How dare you! You have no right to go over my schedule! How did you get it?!" Relena yelled, glaring at him and remembering how it was before.
"Now, now, dear…I was only…"
'I can't believe that this is happening,' Relena thought as she slowly moved away from the vid-phone, only to have Heero come up from behind her, and come into view.
"The Vice Foreign Minister will not be going anywhere without special clearance from the Preventer's and if she should have that special clearance, I will be attending…since I am her personal bodyguard," Heero said, glaring at the man on the screen.
"Mr. Yuy…how good to see you again," Chris said, glaring back, but making his words come out smoothly as Heero did. "I was just asking…"
"No," Heero said as he closed the line and turned to see Relena, sitting in her chair, starring blankly at the wall in front of her, looking pale and shaking.
"I-I ha-have…s-something…t-to te-tell…y-you…H-Heero," Relena said as she looked up at him.
Heero didn't respond, but leaned against the desk, folded his arms across his chest and looked down at her, waiting for her to tell him.
"…A…after I broke up with, Ch-Mr. Lese, he started yelling things at me that I didn't really understand. I had to call in security to take him out of my office…I'm still thankful that it wasn't during our lunch break…and he started to make out all these kinds of threats to me, but…I didn't think that…"
"Relena…I'm going to have to get all the information I can about him…and I need you to tell me and Pagan as much as you can. We starting to believe that he may be the one that is sending you your threat letters…along with someone else, but we're not sure," Heero said as he looked down at her.
"…"
"Please Relena…we really need for you to do this," Heero said as he kneeled down in front of her, put his hand in hers and lifted her face to look at him with his other hand.
"I just never thought…"
"Don't worry, I'll protect you," Heero said as Relena leaned forwards and wrapped her arms around him, crying on his shoulder.
Heero was shocked at the action that Relena had done and was still doing, but slowly, he wrapped his arms around her while standing up with her. He rubbed his hands up and down her back, trying to calm her down, especially since he wasn't use to the action that much and that is how Relena's brother found them.
"Yuy, what are you doing?" Zechs asked as he stopped and looked at his little sister, crying on the shoulder of her bodyguard, who didn't seem to do so well with contact with other people.
"Zechs, I think we may have a lead to those threats," Heero said, ignoring the question as he continued to try to calm down Relena, who was slowly starting to fall asleep in his arms.
