It was the first day of first grade. All the kids were having fun playing together and laughed happily during recess. But Quatre was different. Unlike the others, he didn't have any friends to play with. Feeling a little sad that he was like that, he got some Lego blocks to play with and distract him. After a few minutes of solitude, a girl with honey brown hair and remarkable blue eyes came over.

"Hey, can I play with you?" she asked. Glad that he had found a playmate he couldn't refuse. They played together and laughed happily as the other children around them. It was one of Quatre's memories that he would never, ever forget.

Years had passed by and they were nearly seventeen years now. When Quatre hit his teens, he started to feel differently toward Relena, though he never showed it. There were lots of times when he felt that not so unusual quick heart beats when she was near. When she wasn't looking, he made it a habit to stare at her face. And he couldn't think of anything else when he did so. But to Quatre, things became different when one day when Relena asked him a question.

"Ok class, I expect all groups to turn in their projects by next week. Dismissed." the social studies teacher said to the class. Quatre got his books and headed to the door. Then Relena came by. "Hello Quatre. Would it be alright if I asked you something?"

Of course, he just couldn't refuse. "Well sure Relena. What's up?" he said giving a cheery smile. "Do you know anything about boys?" she asked nervously. "Well what do you mean?" "I mean like what do to befriend them...?" Quatre was curious as to know why she asking this. Why would she want to know how to befriend a boy if he was already her friend? But before he could ask another question, she gave him the explanation, thinking it was ok since they were close friends. "You know my partner right? That guy from Japan, Heero? Well....." and she went on to explain.

Duo Maxwell was sitting on his couch watching T.V. eating potato chips. He was watching Saturday Night live and he laughed as he saw the funny acts on it. When the show was about to reach it's most comical point, someone knocked on the door. Not really caring about seeing that part, Duo got up and went to open the door. At the doorstep was his friend Quatre.

"Yo Quatre! How's it going?" Duo greeted him cheerfully, but seeing that upset look made him ask: "Hey, what wrong? Is everything ok"

"Yes...everything is fine.."he began. "Listen, I want to talk to you about something" he said talking his eyes off the floor and looking at Duo straight in the face. "Well, sure. What's up?"

They went to the living room and took a seat. Quatre began telling his problem right away.

"There's this girl I've known for awhile...and she's special..and I like her a lot."

"Well, well who's the lucky gal?" Duo inquired smiling. "............I'm sorry but I can't tell you that. But listen, I need your help!" Duo was moved by the boy's somewhat desperate expression on his face. "I think she likes someone else...and well I don't know what to do about it..." he said sadly. "Ok, and how do you know that?" Duo asked him.

"She told me herself!..." came an even sadder reply from his mouth. From the looks of it, Duo thought that he was close to being close on the verge of tears. "Well...do you know anything about this guy she likes?" Again, Quatre looked at him in the face but more forcefully and even sadder this time. "You know Heero don't you?..."

The next day, in science class, Duo took his assigned seat and it was next to The Heero Yuy. Also, in his mind they were friends, to whatever degree it was.

"Hiya Heero!" he greeted him as usual. But Heero did not reply. " Y' know, people are talking about you and a certain girl" he continued to talk after a few moments of silence. "So tell me, who's the lucky gal?" Duo asked. Yesterday, Quatre told him to ask Heero if he had feelings about any girl at all because he was supposedly his friend. Duo decided it was ok to do and agreed to do it .Hearing him ask, Heero turned over and stared at Duo with icy cold eyes. "This wasn't going to get anywhere" he thought so the topic was forever dropped. He thought about what he should tell Quatre.
