A Cinderella Story
Chapter 7
By
Dark Angel

"Welcome to the Winner estate. Master Quatre is waiting for you in the library." The Arabic man welcomed.

"Thank you very much Rashid. We will meet him there." Trowa thanked

I scanned the room, and defiantly could tell that this was the palace of a king. Beautiful hand carved furniture rested against the walls and the carpet we walked on looked hand woven out of silk. Everything had its place and nothing was out of order. The boys will ruin this place once they get here. I thought sadly. They followed another man to two big wooden doors. "Master Quatre is inside." He said then disappeared in the mansion. Dad turned the golden doorknob and swung the door open. The library was gigantic; it had wall-to-wall dark oak bookshelves filled books, scrolls and mini statues. Right in the middle there was a red brick fire place and two big reading chairs to sit in. A little end table filled the space between the chairs. From the top of one of the chairs, was a mop of blonde hair. We all filed in the room, and someone closed the door. No one spoke, then a hand with a silky black sleeve and cuff extended with a book in hand and set it on the table. He stood up. The man looked around my fathers' age. He had aging lines in his face but still had the face of a young man. His blonde hair made his green eyes stand out and he walked around the chairs. All of our dads gave a little bow, so we kids did too.There was a silence for a moment before Mr. Maxwell spoke up. "Nice to see you again. Old friend."

-Pause -

Now, I had suspected that "maybe" our dads knew Mr. Winner from a distant relation or something; that's why we got to come much earlier as guests and not contestants. But 'Old Friend?' How far back did they go? Adults are so lame! They never let you know about the people they know until you've already met them! And my dad(especially) has told me NOTHING...

-Play -

"It's nice to see all of you." Mr. Winner smiled warmly as he shook all the men's hand (even David, Tai and Eric). Suddenly the 'black satin devil' was standing right in front of me.

"Heero, is this your daughter? She's beautiful. She reminds me so much of her mother. How is Relena by the way?" he said in a breath.

"She's fine. Nothing has changed about her since the last time you saw her, except her last name." Dad grumbled in his usual way. The black satin devil bent down and gave me a small hug and a tiny handshake. I backed away slowly next to Eric as Mr. King man talked to his 'old friends'.

"Who is that?" I asked Eric.

"You know who that is. That's Quatre Rebabra Winner. King of this manor."

"I know that part. I mean, who is he in relation to us. He seems to know our fathers."

"I don't know. But I saw a picture of my dad and all of his friends once. Your dad, Tai's dad, David's dad, and my dad were all there. Mr. Winner was there too. I guess they go way back."

On the far wall there was a mirror. I stared into it and just kind of stared at my clothes. Today I am wearing a pink tank top and a pair if blue jean Capri's. There was a knock at the door and someone opened the door. A young yet mature voice called "Dad?" then a tall man of about 16 walked through the door. His Blonde hair and Turquoise eyes let me know immediately that he was Prince Aden. He was wearing a handsome dark red dress shirt with black slacks. I saw his eyes dart toward me for a second before he turned to talk to his father.

"Yes Aden?" Mr. Winner asked

"Do you approve of this shirt for the introduction dinner?" he asked tartly.

"Wear something else. That shirt makes you look evil." He disapproved

"What? Fine." The prince seemed irritated.

"Aden. I would like you to meet my old friends, and their children." Mr. Winner started, changing the subject. "This is Trowa Barton, and his son Eric Barton. This is Chang Wufei and his son Tai. This is Duo Maxwell and his son David. And, this is Heero Yuy and his daughter Cindi." I watched the prince's eyes scan through each person with sarcastic eyes that said 'wow, more people to meet' but when he looked at me the look changed to 'HM,' and an unseen smile formed on his lips.

"Nice to meet all of you. But if you'll excuse me, I will take my leave. My sister and I have pretty big day to get ready for." And with that he left the room.

My breath was completely gone.

Read chapter 8... Ok, what did you think? I finally got to that part!
