"Ami, this sucks! Could you believe it, my own parent is forcing me to dance! And you guys won't join with me!" Usagi whined over the phone, two hours before her square dancing lesson starts. Usagi was hoping that this conversation would make her blue haired friend guilty and join dancing with her.
"Usagi, square dancing isn't that bad. You enjoyed it at school"! Ami pointed out.
"Yes, but that was with friends, now I'll be there all alone!" Usagi wailed.
"I'm sorry Usagi, like the other girls I can't join the class with you. I would if I could." Ami comforted, "You know that I volunteered to help at the animal shelter. Oh darn, I'm late, I'll talk to you later!"
"Ok…see you later," Usagi grumbled as she heard a click, signaling that Ami had hung up.
Usagi couldn't believe it, none of her friends could join the class with her, and each of them had good reasons too. Rei, since she is training to be a priestess can't leave the temple, Makoto already took a cooking class, and Minako is working at a restaurant.
"Oh no, I'm going to be late..…on my first day of class!" Usagi screamed when she saw the time. Class starts at 1pm and it's already 12:15pm, and Usagi wasn't even out of her pajamas yet. Not to mention that it takes 20 minutes to just get to the place. "Why me?!" Usagi wailed as she dashed into the washroom.

"So guys……anyone up for some noodles? I'll make it," Duo said timidly. After all the guys had woken up…or sobered up and saw what they had "signed," they had each tried to kill him. Even Quatre and Trowa, well Quatre threatened to kick him out of the house and Trowa agreed a tad too enthusiastically. Heero and Wufei, not hard to guess what they had tried to kill him with.
"Well..?" Duo asked again.
Heero and Wufei just glared at him, while Quatre and Trowa wondered if they should say yes or just ignore Duo. A minute passed.
"Uh..…guys? Noodles?" Duo tried again, and silence was the only thing that greeted him. Duo cringed at the ominous look that Wufei was throwing at him.
"Jeez, just trying to feed us."
Quatre sighed, as much as he wanted to stay mad at Duo, he can't help but forgive him.
"Yeah sure," Quatre said, and immediately Duo's face light up.
"Hn…"
Trowa gave a curt nod.
"You better NOT burn the noodles, Maxwell," Wufei ordered.
"Sure thing!" Duo replied cheerfully. "Maybe I should have signed us up for cooking classes too!"
Glares.
"Uh……never mind, who needs to learn how to cook?" Duo said, scampering into the kitchen.
Duo chuckled to himself as he began to boil water for the noodles. He knew that the guys would try to kill him, but as tough as they look on the outside, they have a soft heart. Duo laughed as he heard Wufei whine about the lessons. Duo knew that each one of them would go into the lessons with him, since he had blackmailed each one of them into it. Duo grinned as he remembered the individual conversation with each of the guys.

"So Heero, did the drink help with your headache?" Duo asked cheerfully.
Heero remained silent, but was glaring at his friend.
"I saw something really funny yesterday I even taped it, you want to see it?" Duo asked.
"Hn…" Heero said as Duo pressed play and what he saw made his eyes pop out.
"Duo…" Heero whispered dangerously.
"Now, I won't show this to anyone, but you have to promise me that you would go to the lessons." Duo said, a little bit fearful.
"Hn..."
"I'll take that as yes, later!" Duo shouted leaving the room.
~
Heero was scary…Duo thought, but not quite as threatening as Wufei.
~
"Oh Wufei, looked what Duo has," Duo taunted.
"My katana, I was looking for it. Give it back," Wufei ordered.
"On one condition, you have to go to the dancing class," Duo said.
"What?! Never! If you don't give it to me willingly I would beat you up and take it." Wufei bluffed.
"Awww, you won't do that to me would you?" Duo asked.
"Fine, but I'll only go to 3 classes, deal?" Wufei asked.
Duo considered it for a moment, three classes is better than none.
"Deal!"
~
Trowa and Quatre's conversation were almost the same with a little less threats.
"Oh shit! The noodles…Well it's only a little burnt. A bit more salt, and pepper could cover up the taste." Duo mumbled to himself.
"Do we have to go through with this?" Wufei asked, sounding a bit childish.
"Unfortunately yes." Heero said. He would rather go to dancing then allow that boy to expose his secret. Duo had proposed a trade, his secrets would be left a secret if he goes to the lessons. Never one to break his words, Heero has no other choice than to learn how to dance. The three other pilots are in similar situations. Wufei the fool had pretty much gave his katana to Duo in the morning, by throwing it at him and not retrieving it fast enough. Heero wasn't sure what Duo took from Quatre, but he had heard the word "love letters." Trowa's item was a complete secret.
(He had planned this out well, couldn't say that he is a Gundam Pilot for nothing.) Heero thought.
"Food!" Duo shouted.
Everyone went to the kitchen table and looked at their lunch. The appearance was decent enough, but appearances could be deceiving. Quatre, never one to offend a friend tentatively put a forkful of noodles into his mouth. Trowa, Heero and Wufei looked at him to see if it's safe to eat Duo's creations. Quatre swallowed and smile at the others. Thinking that Quatre's smile was a good sign, Trowa, Duo and Wufei each put a forkful into their mouth, and the instant that they tasted the noodles they spat it out, each reaching for their drinks.
"Duo how'd you manage to make the noodles bitter?" Trowa asked.
"Bitter?! Try spicy!" Wufei shouted. He poked around the noodles and uncovered a lot of chopped up jalapeno peppers at the bottom of the bowl.
"Spicy? Bitter? It's only a little salty…well a bit more than a little," Duo said, trying to defend himself.
"Quatre, how could you eat that and smile?" Wufei demanded.
Quatre grinned, "Well you don't expect ME to be the only one to suffer do you?"
Heero just smirked, as he saw his friends yelling at Duo again. Through experience Heero learnt NEVER to trust Duo's cooking. (Maybe he SHOULD take a cooking class,) Heero mused.
"I think we should go to class now!" Duo said, running away with Wufei cursing him.

Usagi can't believe it, the only time that she was on time for a class, the teacher was late! (Oh well at least the people here are my age at.) There are 3 other girls that are around her age and none of them look happy being confined in this dance room. (Guess I'm not the only one forced into this.) Usagi had only talked to one of the girls, her name is Molly and she's a nice person, a little too shy though in Usagi's opinion. There are also two gothic girls and they scare her. Not to mention that they reeked of the smell of weed. There are also a few other girls that looks like they are around 12 yrs old, 4 yrs younger than herself.
(Well the guys aren't too bad) There are only 16 people in this class, 8 guys and 8 girls. There are five guys that looks like they are a year older and they were pretty good looking. (They look so "cool" though…….) The rest of the guys in the class look nice enough, all of them were checking her out and that did not make Usagi happy. Especially when 2 of them that won't stop staring at her, they creep her out. One of them has a buzz cut, and his face reminded her of an ape, and the other guy just look too feminine. (Great, out of all the guys I attract I get an "ape.") Trying to ignore the two guys, she focused her attention to the group of five and her eyes widened in amusement.
(Those two are funny) Usagi thought, while studying them. Two of them were constantly arguing, and each time they finish, the guy with the braid would start another one, as if trying to see how annoying he could be before the Chinese guy would kill him. literally. (Maybe someone in the room would be fun to hang out with after all.) Usagi began to walk toward the group, but stopped when she received two very, very intimidating glares. (Guess I'll talk to Molly.)
"Usagi, square dancing isn't that bad. You enjoyed it at school"! Ami pointed out.
"Yes, but that was with friends, now I'll be there all alone!" Usagi wailed.
