Hey all!! It's been awhile since I've updated, but what can I say? There was a combination of school, work, and laziness that prevented me from updating sooner. I just wanted to write a quick thank you to those of you who reviewed my story and to let you know that your opinions meant so much.
I avoided the truth in the last chapter, but now the time has come for the dreaded...

Chapter 2: Hilde
Once Relena decided to join the rest of humanity back on earth, she realized that there was some kind of commotion going on at one of the registration tables. The commotion was caused by a guy with black hair in a pony tail and a girl with blonde hair that was in two big braids, both looked to be of oriental heritage. From all the yelling, Relena kind of got the drift of what the argument was about. It seemed that there was a problem with the boy's schedule and so he had made the decision to take it out on the girl who was helping out behind the tables. As Relena drew closer, the scene didn't improve.
"Woman! I didn't pay a shit load of money to come here and have everything fucked up by some idiot like you!!"
The girl's words came swiftly and venomously, but then grew in volume: "I'm sorry, sir, about the school's mistake. But as I've been telling you for the last five minutes...IT'S NOT MY FAULT, SO STOP BITCHIN' TO ME ABOUT IT!!!"
Crickets could be heard throughout the courtyard; even the guy who started the whole argument was speechless. Then, as if nothing had occurred, he smirked and asked:
"So who do I need to go bitch to?"
The blonde almost fell over at his sudden calmness, but instead she pointed him in the right direction and then he just walked off. Strange, thought Relena. She then finished with registering and after, went off in search of her dorm.
When Relena found her dorm, she saw that her things had been delivered already. There were two small bedrooms of equal stature, so she just decided to choose one and began to unpack her belongings. About an hour later, her roommate arrived.
"Hi! The name's Hilde Schbeiker," the girl stuck out her hand to Relena.
Taking the offered hand, Relena introduced herself: "Hello, I'm Relena Peacecraft; it's nice to meet you."
"Same here."
They both fell into silence for a little while and when their wandering eyes met each other, they both busted out in laughter.
"Come on, I'll help you unpack. I hope you don't mind, but I already chose a room since they're both equal in size."
"Oh no, that's fine." Hilde gave Relena a bright smile.
Relena noticed that Hilde came to about her height and had short black hair that looked practically purple. She could tell that Hilde possessed a strong and free spirit. They spent the next couple of hours unpacking and adjusting their living space.
"So, what was high school like for you?" Hilde asked when she sat down to take a break.
"Boring. I had friends that were friends with me because of how much money my parents had in the bank and it was the same situation with boyfriends, which explains why I've rarely dated anyone. Needless to say, I never went out much. My parents were hardly ever at home and my brother, whom I love with all my heart, got married and moved a state away my sophomore year.
"Wow...sounds great, not too far from my life's story, except for the whole money thing. The greater part of my time in high school was spent working my ass of so I could get into a good school on scholarships, since my family is dirt poor. It's been just my dad and I as far back as I can remember and he barely made enough money for us to live on month to month. I had friends and I let loose every once in awhile, but most of the time it was just me and the books."
After Hilde finished, she and Relena both kind of spaced out for a few minutes thinking about what was just shared between the two of them. Hilde broke the silence first.
"I think we'll get along just fine Relena."
"Me too."
"I'm hungry. Isn't the cafeteria open 'til 8?
Relena let out a small giggle. "That was a quick change of subject, but yeah, I think so."
"Well, when my stomach tells me it's time to eat, I listen to its advice, no questions asked."
Hilde got up and walked toward the door. Relena laughed again and followed her new found friend to the campus cafeteria.
Once they sat down to eat at a table next to a window with a good view, they were approached by a blue-eyed stranger with chocolate brown hair (not the one you're thinking of) that was twisted into a long braid.
"Hello ladies. How are you today?"
"Fine, thank you," answered Relena politely.
"And you little pixie?" He asked Hilde, wiggling his eye brows.
Hilde, startling the stranger and Relena, fell out laughing and continued down onto the floor.
"What? What's so funny?" Asked the confused stranger.
Relena was just as confused and couldn't give him an answer, so she just gave him a nervous smile and shrugged her shoulders. Hilde, still giggling, grabbed onto the table to pull herself up.
"Do you....giggle.....have any idea....giggle.....how fucking corny that was?"
"Hey!! Others have never complained," the boy said.
"Liar."
The braided one just looked at Hilde with shock written all over his face and then he straightened himself.
"...Yeah, you're right," he smiled toothily at Hilde and shrugged.
"So what's your name Prince Charming?" Asked "the pixie."
"Duo Maxwell."
"Hi Duo, I'm Hilde Schbeiker and this is Relena Peacecraft," said Hilde pointing to Relena.
"Are you related to Milliardo Peacecraft?"
"He's my brother."
"Wow!! I'm impressed, it's the sister of one of the world's best fencers. Nice to meet you Relena and you Hilde. Now...enough with all the formality. I saw you two beautiful creatures sittin' over here by yourselves and thought I should come and invite you to sit with me and my friends."
"Well, you know Duo, we're just about done, so maybe if you catch us next time we'll sit with you," said Hilde with a wink. With that said, the girl's took a few more bites and then got up to leave.
"It was really nice to meet you Duo; I hope we'll have classes together."
"Same here princess."
With that, he headed back to his table and Relena and Hilde went to put their trays up. Before Relena exited through the door form whence she came, she glanced back to where Duo had seated himself. She stopped dead in her tracks at what she saw. It was the guy she had bumped into at registration.
Hilde, noticing Relena's sudden absence, went back to see what had caught her friend's attention. She found her staring intently at someone that was seated at Duo's table, although she wasn't quite sure which person it was.
"Earth to Relena!" Hilde waved her hand in front of Relena's face to get her attention.
"Huh?"
"Who ya staring at?"
"That guy sitting next to Duo, do you know him?"
"No, but he's freakin' hot! Nice choice, if I do say so myself. Let's go talk to them."
Hilde started to walk off toward the table where the blue-eyed deity sat with Duo. Relena grabbed her arm and pulled her back before she got any further.
"Are you insane? I don't even know him and besides, we already told Duo we were leaving."
"Alright fine, but next time, we go and sit with them."
"Ok, fine." Relena turned around prepared to leave.
Hilde smiled wickedly "....And, you have to talk to him."
The golden hair beauty visibly flinched and turned around to face Hilde once again.
"Damn."
Hilde smiled triumphantly, then walked off. Relena looked back once more at the table and to her surprise found that the subject of their previous conversation was staring at her. They locked eyes for what felt like hours to Relena, the she blushed and ran off after Hilde.
Next time: Let the learning begin!! Will our Relena have classes with her blue-eyed mystery man or will she be left suffering? Find out in the next chapter!!!!!
Please let me know if there are any mistakes please, I swear I won't get offended. I really don't know when I'll be able to update next, you know with me graduating and all suddenly has an attack of giddiness. Anyways, I swear I'll work on it as much as I can.
Author's desperate plea to reader: Please, please, please read and review my story.....Please? o.o
