Well this is the next chapter. I am so sorry it took so long, but unfortunately my state was one in the direct impact from hurricane Dennis. I'm not too happy with that right now. So I had to pack and unpack and pick up debris. And Oh yeah by the way someone said that Quatre's proposal was from a movie. This is true. It was from ''Runaway Bride''

Disclaimer: I OWN NOTHING OK!

Chapter 9

What if we can't prove it? Will they believe us? Will Relena marry Adray anyway? This was Heero's thought process while walking back from Wing Zero. Of course no one would be able to tell. His mask of indifference hided any worry that he felt.

''Heero!'' some familiar voice called. Looking around he could see Duo running towards him. What was it now? When Duo finally reached him Heero noticed there was a little worry behind his eyes. Now Heero started to worry. What was Duo going to make him do?

Apparently Duo didn't have enough worry. Slinging his arm over Heero's shoulder he started to talk.

'' Well you know how Relena is getting married. So the girls thought that it would be nice if she got the wedding dress in this country. Since we're going to be leaving in about a week for the wedding. And since we're all busy we thought you could take her.''

Heero stared at him like he had gone crazy. Him, take Relena for her wedding dress. Wasn't this supposed to be a royal wedding anyway? What would he know about weddings? Before he even had time to say no Duo had taken off saying a ''thanks'' over his shoulder. Oh boy.

This was not going to be pretty.

XxXxXxXx

He was positive she had gone through every dress in this store. He had given up looking for one for her. Everyone he picked she said she didn't want. What was it she said again? Oh yeah.

''This might be an unwanted wedding and I might hate the groom, but it's still my wedding. And if I have too do this the least I could get is to have everything the way I want it.''

That's what she said after he showed her one dress that he really liked. Too bad that when he walked away he didn't see her give the dress to the clerk and not back on the rack.

So he had been sitting in this chair for at least an hour while she inspected every dress for imperfection. He understood that all women wanted the perfect dress, but why did it take them so long? Oh well at least he had a newspaper to keep him company.

''Ok Heero what do you think?'' Relena's voice brought him out of his musing.

To put it simply she took his breath away. Her simple dress that puffed out slightly below her waist seemed perfect for her. No decoration or designs on it at all. Only a simple white dress. Maybe that's what made it so different.

He managed to make a reply,'' Its fine.'' Turning the newspaper over he wondered why he couldn't read the words.

''You're reading your newspaper upside down. That's got to be better than fine.'' Catching a glance at her face and the huge smile that was on it he just grunted and turned the newspaper around again.

Soon enough though they each heard his cell phone ring. Picking it up he walked out of the store to take the call.

''…''

''Hey Heero are you there?'' Duo. Should have known.

''I answered didn't I.''

''Yeah you did. So I was just calling to see if she found her dress yet. All the girls are just waiting around for her to get back and their getting really impatient. And you know how they get when their impatient.

''I thought they were all busy.''

''Oh yeah…well…I'm going to go bye Heero.''

'I knew it! They set this…''

''What Heero?'' Turning around he say Relena there holding two boxes. Why did she need two? Oh well.

''Nothing, you done?'' he said his cold tone once again. Her eyes seemed to die a little, but they came right back to life and smiled.

''Why of course Heero. Let's just get back to the mansion.''

Watching her walk away from him made him wonder if he could handle it when she walked away from him for a life with Adray.

XxXxXxXx

''Duo what are you doing?'' Quatre asked when he saw Duo watching Adray's room door barely holding in some laughter.

''Be quiet Quatre and come see.'' Compiling with him he sat down and watched.

Soon enough Adray came around the corner with a huge smile on his face and grabbed the door handle to his room. Duo's laughter seemed to be harder to control now, and Quatre's nervousness seemed to grow the farther that Adray opened his door.

Soon enough though once Adray stepped inside a whole bucket full of pink paint spilled all over him and his expensive cloths. With a shout Adray tried to get the paint off but only succeed in pulling a trip wire which sent a whole bucket of chicken feathers to stick to the fresh paint.

Duo hadn't stopped laughing since and started to take enormous amounts of pictures. While Quatre just silently walked away shaking his head. Looking back at Duo he wondered if he should have told him that was Heero's room that he spilled the pink paint all over the floor. And that Adray was just snooping around by changing the map so he could find out more about Heero. Seeing him still laughing his head off Quatre just silently walked away. He would find out soon enough.

XxXxXxXx

Wufei shook his head in disbelief as he watched Heero power walked, almost running, in to the house. Relena was slowly walking behind him with her head slowly in silent laughter.

Scowling he wondered what Yuy would do when he saw his room. Deciding to get out of shooting range he took off.

While walking away he couldn't help but wonder what Relena was laughing about.

XxXxXxXx

Almost running Heero Yuy walked the halls with a sense of forbidding to anyone that came close.

He grimaced when he remembered the accident he had when he walked tried to walk through what he thought an open door way. He was too busy staring at Relena that he didn't notice.

Opening the door he was shocked to silence at what he saw. A huge spill of pink paint was on his floor along with some on his walls. Feathers stuck to the dried paint. He felt the rage built up little by little.

''MAXWELL!''

''I DIDN'T DO IT!''

XxXxXxXx

''Man I can't believe Heero made me do this,'' Duo muttered as he pick up a box of Heero's stuff. Trowa, Wufei, Quatre, and Heero had already left with their loads leaving Duo alone.

After discovering Duo's accident Heero had decided to move rooms. Ironically that room was right next to Relena's.

Feeling the box in his arms weight start to shift to the side he saw the box's belongings start to fall out. But before he could stop it some belongs fell out and some important papers feel behind the dresser.

Moving the dress aside to reach behind it Duo was surprised to find a small box. Feeling his eyes widen as he began to choke on his breath. This was…this was…an engagement ring box. Opening the lid Duo felt his mouth run dry as he stopped breathing and all thoughts stopped in his brain.

Inside this box was the most beautiful ring ever. It even outshined Dorothy's single two-carat diamond ring.

An exquisite two-carat sapphire circled in a carat of diamonds.

Dou felt himself choke when he began to breathe again. This must be for Relena he thought. But one question was still on his mind.

Did some give Heero a raise that he didn't know about?

''Duo,'' a dangerous voice behind him growled. Smiling sheepishly while turning around Duo looked at the form of one angry Heero Yuy. Sensing that he wasn't going to come out ok no matter what he decided to get some answers anyway.

''So Heero is this for Relena?'' Well there was no use for beating around the bush.

Sighing Heero just decided to answer. Duo wouldn't leave him alone until he answered anyway.

''Yes it is.'' Duo raised an eyebrow at that one.

''It is. You're pretty confident she's going to get out of this marriage.''

''If I don't what future do I have to hope for.''

Duo once again sighed and dropped his eyes. This was getting them no where. Just might as well get it over with.

''Did you get a raise and nobody tell me about it?''

Heero smirked at that one. Oh this was going to be good. Taking the box out of Duo hands Heero walked off while saying,'' I got a promotion.''

Duo shook his head in understanding. ''Oh you got a promoti…WHAT.''

Heero walked of with Duo coming up right behind him.

''How did you get a promotion! Come on Heero talk to me. Please!''
