Oh yeah and I like to start from the end of stories and flash back to the beginning. I tell the story through flashbacks basically.

Chapter one: To catch a thief

--------------------------------------Story-----------------------------------

Pretty girl is suffering,
while he confesses everything

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

London 1852

"Relena I pretended to be in love with you so that I might get your fortune when we married." Heero stated coldly.

Relena shook her head. No she could not believe what he was saying. He loved her. He said that he would be with her forever. He had said that he would never lie to her or hurt her.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Pretty soon she'll figure out
what his intentions were about

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Looking into his Prussian blue eyes she saw the truth. She saw the scam that was his 'love'. He had lied to her. He had hurt her. Turning her eyes from his she sealed herself for his satisfied laughter. When she had first met him twelve years ago she had seen his honesty. That day she had seen Heero for what he was. So what was he now? She remembered that day on the streets like yesterday.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And that's what you get for falling again
you can never get him outta your head
And that's what you get for falling again
you can never get him outta your head

Flashback

London 1840

A young boy was stealth fully making his way down a crowded street in the heart of London. Moving carefully between people Heero slipped his hands in and out of pockets. He had never been in this part of the city before, but he was making a killing. These people seemed to dress much better then the people in his neighborhood. Just as he was about to pic-pocket an old man an flash of blonde blinded him for a moment. Stunned he turned to see the source of this light. It was then that he saw 'her'.

Relena was bored with shopping already. Not daring to complain she trudged along after her mother and brother. Relena's eyes started to wander to everything around her. Though she had only been alive for nearly seven years, she knew this place like the back of her hand. Relena decided to have an adventure like in her brother's books. She simply stopped following her mother's flowing skirts and dissipated into the crowd. She started to make her way into the poorer part of the shopping district. The people there still wore nice clothing but the really rich cloth and fine jewels were replaced with semi-precious stones and plain cotton. Spinning in a circle Relena marveled at her surroundings. The sunlight reflected off of her hair making pretty patterns on the sidewalk. She heard a gasp and spun around to face a boy her age with Prussian-blue eyes staring at her.

Both simply stood their marveling at each others pretty features. Finally Relena broke the silence.

"Good day. Could you tell me where to find Simon's Fine Jewelers?" Relena asked as she stared into the boy's beautiful eyes. He blinked as if to clear his thoughts, and then looked around himself. When he finally got his bearings he replied.

"No I don't. Why is you here?"

"Why am I here? That is the proper English term." Relena said primly. "I am lost that is why I am in this part of the city. As you can see I am not accustomed to this side of society. Would you help me find my way back to 'My' side of town?"

Heero scowled at her in annoyance. Relena was sure now that he wouldn't help her now. Turning she tried to figure out just where she was. Heero watched her for a minute before deciding to help her. Taking her small pale hand in his larger tan one he pulled her to the right.

"This way….. What's your name? I'm Heero Shiro Yuy." Heero stated proudly.

"Relena Marie Peacecraft. Thank you for helping me Heero." He liked the way his name sounded when she said it. For once he felt like something other than an orphan.

They walked for about fifteen minutes before they reached the upper-class housing district. They had surprisingly gotten along wonderfully. They had spoken about everything. The two naïve children had learned about a part of life that they had never known before. Relena had learned about the poor and about being an orphan. Heero learned about the upper-class and having family. Both had grown because of this experience. When they reached the street that was her own she turned to thank him.

"Heero, I am most grateful for you bringing me to my home. You could have brought me to Simon's fine Jewelers but you were most kind to bring me directly home." Relena said while curtsying. When she looked back up at him she memorized his features, and committed them to memory. He had long chocolate brown hair that was thick and fell into his Prussian-blue eyes. He was slim yet muscled. She was sure he would grow into a handsome young man.

"That is okay Relena. It was interesting adventure. It was fun talking with you." Heero said while smiling a shy smile.

"I hope we meet again Heero." She smiled a radiant smile. Heero committed her look into memory also. She had long blonde hair with bright blue eyes. They waved to each other and moved in opposite directions. Neither child would forget the other.

Its the way that he makes you feel

"No Heero, I don't believe you. You have an honest heart. I saw it the day we met. I can not believe that you would do this to me." Relena stated with force. She was crying by now.

"Relena I only acted like I loved you to get your money. I do not love you and I never did. And you think you know me? I had an honest heart then? Well I can tell you one thing, little miss princess, I was a pic-pocket back then. I stole for a living. Is that what you call honesty? I am a con man Relena. I lie to people to get my way." Heero calmly stated. He watched Relena cry without emotion. She fell to her knees and sobbed into her skirts.

Looking up after a time, she stared at his calm, cold, and beautiful face. His Prussian-blue eyes showed her nothing. Not a single emotion. Suddenly she knew that she should not have trusted him. He was poor when she had met him, how could he be rich now?

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

She's beautiful as usual
with bruises on her ego and
her killer instinct tells her to
be aware of evil men

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Heero turned on a heel leaving stunned servants and a crying crumpled Relena in his wake. He betrayed no emotion as he walked down the street that she lived on. H was so lost in his thoughts he didn't hear foot steps following him.

'It was necessary.' He thought.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And that's what you get for falling again
you can never get him outta your head
And that's what you get for falling again
you can never get him outta your head

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A half an hour later, Relena felt a pair of arms pick her off the floor. Looking up blue eyes clashed with blue eyes. Her brother was here to save her.

"Milliardo, why are you here? I thought you went to dinner with Miss Noin." Relena asked while her brother set her down on the settee. Looking over his grief ridden sister for injury Milliardo replied.

"No, our evening was canceled earlier this evening. Noin was feeling unwell. Now enough talk of me, what happened to get you into this state?" Milliardo asked. She looked teary at her brother.

"Heero broke our engagement not an hour ago. He said that he didn't love me." Relena said with a small sad voice. Her brother's eyebrows furrowed as her tale of earlier that evening came out. After she finished her story her brother hugged Relena tightly.

"I am here sister. I won't let him hurt you ever again." Milliardo promised. Relena sobbed and pushed herself deeper into his arms. What she didn't see was the look of satisfaction in her brother's eyes.

'Mission accomplished.' Milliardo thought.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Its the way that he makes you feel
its the way that he kisses you
its the way that he makes you fall in love, love

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A half an hour earlier.

When Heero felt a hand fall upon his shoulder he spun around. Angry at himself for being caught of guard he fell into a defensive stance. In the lamplight he saw familiar white-blonde hair, Milliardo Peacecraft.

"So did you break all ties with my sister?" Milliardo asked an angry Heero.

"Yes, I did. She cried at my feet in pain. Does that make you happy?" Heero asked with dangerous blue eyes sparkling. Milliardo smirked and patted the young man on the back. Heero pulled away sharply.

"Well done. I had thought that you would have been unable to lie so completely to my sister. She has an amazing ability to see through lies. You do realize that she will never speak to you again if she ever sees you?" at Heero's nod Milliardo continued. "I thoughts so. I have stopped the inquiry on your past criminal acts. The police are no longer after you Heero. Your free to lead a normal life. We as normal a life as a con man lives."

"The police would not have been after me if you hadn't given them information on my past shady business ventures." Heero growled. "I cut all ties with your sister, are you not happy now? I lost the love of my life. She will probably marry anyone you ask her to. She will be a perfect bargaining chip. You can sell her to Treize like you wanted to before I came. You can do whatever you want." Heero said with sorrow in his eyes. Milliardo smiled in triumph. But as he watched Heero stalk away he felt a heavy feeling in his stomach. Guilt.

Pretty girl

Pretty girl is suffering

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

He loved his sister, but his business was going under. He needed her to marry Treize to insure that Treize would invest in his company. He had to hurt her to help the rest of his family. He had to protect Noin and their unborn child. Lucrezia, Millirado's new wife was recently diagnosed as pregnant. It could blow up in his face but Milliardo was willing to risk Relena's wrath to ensure his and her future. Relena could grow to love Treize. When they were married Milliardo's company would get a huge donation from the Treize Corporation. All would work out in the end.

its the way that he makes you cry
its the way that he's in your mind
its the way that he makes you fall in love

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Heero walked into his large house not five blocks away from Relena's house. His butler came up to Heero to take his jacket, but Heero waved him away. Heero needed to be alone. Stepping into his office he was struck with a sense of unease. He had grown up and orphan and a pic-pocket, but look at him now, a lord. He had become a con man to make a fortune and to have a better life. He had lied to people and taken their money through made up business ventures. He had eventually started to honestly make money. When he had the starting capital he had started a merchant trade business. The business had been highly successful. He had decided a year ago that he needed a rich heiress to seal his fortune and place in society. It was then that he had meet Relena again. It was over those next months when he was wooing her that he had fallen in love with her. He had lost his heart and later during their engagement he had nearly lost his fortune also. Milliardo had forced his hand. He had to break the engagement to keep his business. He had to break her heart. He had to break his own heart. He had to shatter their world of love.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Its the way that he makes you feel
its the way that he kisses you
its the way that he makes you fall in love, love

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Some where in a house in upper-class London Treize Kushranada was smiling in satisfaction. He had just received a letter from Milliardo Peacecraft confirming the broken engagement of Relena Peacecraft to Heero Yuy. He had nearly won, and when he did he would have everything he wanted.

TBC.

------------------------------Preview----------------------------------------

"Heero? Is that you?" Relena asked in an excited tone. The tall man in question turned around to face the voice. Time stood still as their eyes met in a clash of Prussian-blue and ocean-blue.

"Relena!" Heero breathed. This was their first meeting in the twelve year since they had first met. This was a work of fate.
