Chapter 1
The Letter
Now back to the story about this awful day, before I started blabbing about myself.
This day was a bad one indeed. My cousin has been attending Peacecraft finishing school, an extension of the Peacecraft Academy. Of course Relena Peacecraft was running it. With Relena being there, of course it would attract the one and only Heero there.
My cousin is a first year student at the school. And on this day she received a letter. A letter from America. A letter that would change her life. Forever? I don't even know that. As for the Guardian of Time herself? I don't even think she knows. But this letter was a letter of sadness and betrayal. It was a heartbreaking letter. Honestly, I don't even know how she survived it. But, some how she did.
It was a letter telling my cousin what she feared most. They were breaking up. Her boyfriend, and only true love, Darien, was dumping her. He didn't believe that it could work.
"Serena,
I know we had a wonderful time together all those years, but..."
'But...There had to be a "but" didn't there. I hate "buts".' Serena thought to herself as she continued to read the letter she received.
"...but, we've been away from each other for a long time now. With only letter and phone calls to keep ourselves company. I'd think it'd be better for the both of us to go our sepret ways. Letters and phone calls aren't enough. I want to be with the one I love. Besides, I don't think it could last anyway. Especially, being away from each other for so long. I'd hate to be blunt, but, it's over, Serena, it's over.
Darien"
'I...I can't believe he's breaking up with me!' Serena thought wide eyed. She had to get fresh air, and she had to get it now. With that desperate thought, she ran outdoors to get some fresh air. But, it wasn't helping that much.
It stared out as a nice, butiful, sunny day, but once she got outside, the clouds looked like they were about to take over. Serena made her way over to one of the many benches around a lake, which graced the grounds of the school. Serena just sat there looking at the water. But the water wasn't comforting her any better than she already felt.
The calm water of the lake ended up reminding her of two of her friends. Being water was there specialty. Because of the water, her mind drifted off to her friends, and the conversations they use to have. And how those conversations always lead to boys. That was her problem about the water of the lake. That's why this idea wasn't helping any. The water reminded her of her friends, then reminding her about conversations they'd have, and how they always lead to boys. These conversations about boys always reminded her about Darien. This wasn't working. She needed something else, something to get her mind off things for awhile.
She adverted her gaze from the lake to the sky. It wasn't much of a sky anymore. It was full of clouds now. Clouds that seemed to match her mood. 'Uh-Oh, it looks like it's going to rain.' As that thought went through her head, there was a flash of light, then it started to down pour. For once in her life, she didn't care about the storm. It actually felt soothing to her this time. As if the world was agreeing with her. Even though this world, this planet, this planet Earth, belonged to her ex. Her Ex-boyfriend, Darien. But, it was actually agreeing with her. This soothed her more than anyone else could right now.
But soon her silence was broken; she could hear voices behind her. But the only thing behind her, besides the school, was a tree. Hearing these voices, forgetting all about her problems, she concentrated, trying to listen to what these voices were talking about.
