Chapter 10

Tenshi rolled her eyes at Duo and looked at her food. "This is what again?" she poked the jell-o that had been handed to her with a spoon.

"It's Jell-O." Usagi stated while Duo laughed at Tenshi.

"That's what I thought it was but it doesn't look like it... I think I'll pass." Tenshi pushed the Jell-O and cookies away and made herself comfortable. She looked around the table at the others. Hotaru was trying to test the Jell-O but having a hard time, Usagi and Duo were lapping into it, Quatra was carefully eating the cookies while refusing to eat the Jell-O, Heero and Wufei were glaring at her, and Trowa was trying to decide what to do with his food.

"So, Tenshi, what brings you here?" Hotaru asked after she decided that she didn't want the Jell-O because it was too hard to feed it to herself. She was slowly eating the cookies though.

"I'm here because I was asked to protect Miss Relena." Tenshi answered.

Heero grunted and Wufei snorted, before saying "You don't seem to be doing a good job of it. Where is she?"

"I could ask you the same thing. That's your job too, isn't it?"

Wufei said nothing to this and Tenshi smirked at him. Quatra looked a little embarrassed by the fact that neither of them had even looked for Relena after History period. Relena had been there but had taken off right after and no one had bothered to even look for her.

The coffee break period ended soon after that and they all headed off to class. Usagi and Hotaru had the same class, which was science, with Duo and Quatra, while the other four had the same one, which was computers. They all went their separate ways, after Quatra asked Trowa to make sure that Heero, Wufei and Tenshi didn't try to kill each other again. Relena was in the class with Heero, Tenshi and the others.

The next period, the group was still split in two, with Usagi, Hotaru, Trowa and Quatra having math, while Tenshi, Heero, Duo, Wufei and Relena had lit. Needless to say Tenshi, Heero and Wufei were not happy with any of these arrangements. Wufei avoided Tenshi and Duo like the plague, while Tenshi sat near Relena and Heero avoided Relena like the plague.

Tenshi spent much of these two periods wondering if protecting Relena was the best cover, and how she was going to protect Hotaru and Usagi if she never had any classes with them. She decided to talk this over with Pluto that night... 'If I can get any damn time to myself...' she thought. She was alone in her dorm room, but it was right next door to Relena and Relena liked to drop by all the time.

Next they had lunch, where the group met up, and Relena decided to sit with them. She eyed Usagi and Hotaru a little before digging into her food. The meal today was some sort of grilled chicken with a salad, chocolate cake and milk. Usagi and Duo were, as usual, digging into it. Hotaru was having trouble feeding herself and was looking quite embarrassed. Heero wasn't paying attention to the others as he slowly ate his meal while taking in every detail of the cafeteria. Quatra was trying to make small talk with Tenshi, who was eyeing her chicken while eating her salad. Trowa offered to help Hotaru, who blushed deep red, and said she wasn't hungry, so it didn't matter.

When Duo was finished his chicken and cake, he whined that salads were boring and he wanted more chicken. He noticed Tenshi slowly eating her salad without touching her chicken. "Why aren't you eating that?" he asked her, pointing to the chicken.

Tenshi gave him a withering look before replying. "I'm a vegetarian."

"Oh... I'll trade you my salad for your chicken!" Duo offered, cobalt eyes pleading with her dark ones.

"Well... Since it's already dead, I guess we can't let it go to waste." She shrugged and handed him her plate of chicken as Duo handed her his salad.

The rest of the day dragged on, seeming to never end. After lunch, they again went their separate ways for their classes. Usagi, Hotaru, Duo and Quatra had computers while Tenshi, Heero, Trowa, Wufei, and Relena had science. The period after that, they were once again together in global studies.

When the final bell rang, the group left for their dorms. Duo and Usagi took off running, leaving the others behind. Trowa offered an arm to Hotaru, who took it gratefully. They walked with the others in one big group.
