"Heero Yuy..."
Heero looked up from his enormous pile of work. It was only his fourth day on the job and Une had already layered him with paperwork. He took the bundle of letters from the deliveryboy and began to sort through them.
Most were from important contacts but he looked at the last one and saw it postmarked from the Cinq kingdom. He stared at it for the longest time until he heard a voice over his shoulder.
"Are ya gonna open it or what?" Duos head poked over the thin seperator that divided the one room into six small cubicles.
Heero looked up at him. Duo had called Wufei and secured himself a job as soon as he heard that they were out to hire all of the old pilots. God only knew why he would want to start immidiately but that was Duo for you.
Right now the braided baka was grinning at him slyly and spoke up again.
"I bet its a letter begging for your forgivness ne? She never could go long without you." his grin widened and Heero suddenly saw what he was trying to do. Deja Vu crept over him as he recognised that mischievious smirk and manner, the same as it was just after the war...when he had been trying to hook him up with the former Queen.
Not wanting to give Duo the satisfaction of knowing that he was indeed curious about what Relena had to say to him, Heero turned away and angrily threw the letter into a nearby wastebasket, giving Duo a "dont mess with me' glare and returning to work.
_____________________________________________
Duo was shocked to say the least. He would have never done that during the war...whats up with him? He remained frozen to the spot for a moment and realized exactly what it was when he recieved Heeros glare.
'Hes on to me!' he thought wildly 'damn, old approaches aren't gonna work anymore' he turned and sat down at his desk, his chin propped thoughtfully in his hand as he mulled things over.
'Ok, well Relena is obviously trying to get ahold of him as well...' he flipped a few pages in the manual he had been reading, pretending to work as an overseer walked by, 'but now that the letter is in the trash, theres no way his ego will allow him to read it...I guess ill just have to get it out of there.' He wrinkled his nose at the thought, knowing that he would have to climb through the garbage of the whole office to get to the letter. But its not like hed never done it before back on L2 and he'd do anything to make sure Relena and Heero got back together...he just could not leave them alone until they did...
'Until hes happy' he thought sadly, as he started scheming to get to that letter.
___________________________________________________
Heero angrily stormed into his room and involuntarily wondered just how many times his door had been slammed in the past week. He could care less right now though as he realized that his old 'partner' was up to his tricks again.
'Damnit why does he have to get involved!?' he thought to himself 'I can handle this myself without him trying to 'fix' everything!' Over the past few days, Heero had somehow convinced himself that the breakup was probably for his own good, and it no longer bothered him quite as much, but that letter had piqued his curiosity...
Why would Relena be trying to get ahold of him all of a sudden? Was she having second thoughts? Heero felt lifted a bit by the thought though he knew it was probably wasn't valid. He sighed again. he really had become dependant on her during their relationship. He realized this, and though he knew whatever they may have had was over, he couldn't help but feel drawn to her.
'She gave me comfort when no one else would have' he remembered sadly. 'No one else would want someone like me...'

Duo peeked down the dark corrider. Seeing that the coast was clear he tiptoed down a few doors and shoved his key into the lock on the fourth. The door creaked open and once he decided that the coast was clear, he quickly made his way to his target...the dumpster.
Duo was taken aback when he'd heard that the dumpster was kept indoors at Preventers headquarters, but he guessed it didn't surrprise him too much. After all, you could never tell who went through your garbage and there were some pretty informative documents floating around the building.
He smirked and lifted the top but immidiately let it drop again.
'Damn that reaks!' he thought. Not one to be discouraged however, he pinched his nose and opened it again and nearly cried at all of the garbage hed have to dig through. Steeling himself he started first seeing if he could get anywhere with one hand, then two, and finally he hoisted himself into it and began digging frantically.
He passed half eaten sandwiches, napkins, old files, folders, plenty of gum and candy and TONS of paper, but saw no sign of his intended goal. He was just beginning to lose heart when something pink caught his eye. He pushed through the trash quickly and jumped up again, the letter in hi hand. For once he thanked god that Relena was so stuck on pink.
Not even waiting to step out of the dumpster, he took out a small flashlight and ripped open the letter. Inside he found a card. He opened it and read the first two lines and his eyes shot wide open.
'Oh no' he thought, 'Oh no oh no oh no!' getting over the initial shock, he pocketed the card and jumped out of the dumpster, quickly making his way home with haunted eyes...

Quatre looked up from his newspaper as he heard the front door open. 'Finally!' he thought to himself, throwing the paper down and jumping up. He hurried out to the main hallway and stood waiting as Duo pulled his jacket off and hung it on the hook just inside the door.
He was not prepared however, for the intense feeling of hopelessness and anger radiating from the braided mans eyes as he turned to look at him.
"Duo?" All thoughts of repremanding the boy for the worry he had put him through vanished as he took a tentative step towards the upset boy.
Seeming to notice for the first time that he was not by himself in the hallway, Duos eyes focused and one of his usual grins appeared on his face.
"Whats up Quat? Hey sorry bout getting in so late..." he quipped, as if it had all just been some big joke "I just had some business to take care of, thats all...well. see ya tomorrow!" With that he hurried up the stairs, no stopping till he reached the large doors to his room, he threw them open stepped inside and locked them behind him.
Throwing the dirty pink envelope on the bed his put both hands into his hair and gripped tightly as he started to pace nervously.
'How could she do this!' he thought miserably 'Not only does she completely crush him by breaking up with him in the first place, she has to go rub it in his face!'
He threw the envelope a dirty look as he continued his frantic pacing. He tried to deny what he had read. 'No...she cant be serious' he argued 'This has got to be some sick twisted joke. Shes always had the hots for him, its way too obvious...' His pacing slowed as another thought occured to him.
' But if shes serious...then that means...she doesn't have feelings for him anymore!' his heart rose a bit 'maybe id actually have a chance...' he stood still as he angrily pushed those trecherous thoughts away. 'No, theres no way hed be able to feel anything for me, this'll crush him...i just know it'
Suddenly an idea came to him as he threw another glance at the card sitting on the bed. 'Its not over yet' he thought and quickly went about with his planning, unlocking the doors and stepping out to gather supplies, leaving the pink card sitting innocently on his bed declaring to the world around it:
'Ms Relena Darlian-Peacecraft
requests the honor of your presence
at her wedding to Mr. Christophe Reed
on the twelfth of June AC 200.'
