Disclaimer: I don't own Gundam Wing! It's depressing but true!
Only Friends or More?
Chapter Five: The group I refer to consists of: Heero, Hilde, Duo, Relena, Trowa, Quatre, Dorothy, Catherine, Sally, Wufei, Lady Une, Noin, and Milliardo (Zechs).
The reception was extremely casual attire. Everyone wore jeans and t-shirts or tank tops.
Milliardo was happy that Relena had to change out of that thing she called a dress. And to think that her bodyguards let her go out of the mansion dressed like that! "Maybe I should get her new bodyguards…"
"No you won't." Relena said with a smile. "I'm happy to see you again brother."
"I'm happy to see you too, little sister." Milliardo smiled at her. They walked to the gift table together in time to see Hilde and Heero picked Relena's first.
"I hope you guys like it. And I didn't go with Duo to get it." Relena told them with a smirk.
"Then it's a safe gift. Good." Heero winked at Relena.
"What's that supposed to mean!" Duo yelled.
"You seriously don't know?" Quatre asked.
"…no…should I?"
"…You have a history of giving gag gifts Duo." Hilde said.
Duo thought for a second. "…hehehe…I guess I do." He smiled. "Alright, that's enough picking on me for one day guys! Just open Relena's present! I'm dying to know what it is!"
The group laughed as Heero and Hilde opened the gift together. "…Relena!" The shocked couple looked at Relena, who just giggled at them.
"Yes?" she said with an innocent smile.
The couple held up the gift, which happened to be video camera, a pair of royal blue boxers with Gundam Zero on them, a royal blue silky mid thigh length slip, and a pair of handcuffs.
The entire group was speechless.
"Wow! Nice choice Relena!"
"Duo!"
"Sorry Hilde, but I'm surprised I didn't think of that!" Duo grinned causing everyone to laugh.
"I guess that side of you was bound to get out sooner or later."
Everyone stopped laughing and looked at Heero.
"What do you mean?" Noin asked.
Heero grinned. "She has a weird sense of humor but rarely lets it show. I've seen it a few times but it's never been with something this…" Heero chuckled.
"Kinky!" Duo finished Heero's sentence.
"Maxwell! You'll take that back if you want to keep your job!" Milliardo yelled!
"I won't lose my job, Zechs! Relena's my boss, not you!" Duo froze. He gulped and thought to himself 'Am I nuts! I just talked back to Zechs! I'm dead now!'
"Calm down brother."
"But…"
"Duo's right. He'll keep his job even if you say he's fired and you know it."
"…Fine. But you better explain that gift when we go back to the mansion."
Relena, Duo, and Trowa glanced at each other nervously. Milliardo didn't know that Duo and Trowa had moved in. 'Oh boy. He's gonna be even madder when we get home.' They all thought.
The other gifts were opened without any more surprises, much to Duo's dismay.
That night at the mansion: (the gang's all here!)
"They what!" Milliardo's yell echoed though the mansion.
Everyone cringed.
"Now Milliardo, relax. They're her friends and bodyguards. It's perfectly acceptable for them to live with her." Noin tried her best to calm her husband down.
"No it's not!"
"It's already done, Milliardo. They're not moving out." Relena told her brother.
"That's right!" Duo and Trowa said in unison.
"Zechs, there's something I should tell you." Duo was sweating from nervousness.
All eyes were on Duo.
"What is it, Maxwell?"
"…I'm in love with your sister." Duo looked at Relena.
Relena blushed. "I love you too, Duo."
Duo and Relena smiled at each other.
"…" The others were speechless.
Milliardo regained his voice first. "…Well…that's a shocker." He said still slightly shocked.
"I'm so happy for you both!" Noin said.
"It's about time you guys told each other." Trowa smiled.
Wufei chuckled and shoved Duo closer to Relena.
Duo looked at Relena and gave her a kiss on the lips (long enough to make her blush but short enough that Milliardo didn't yell again).
The group cheered.
"I say we have cake and coke and celebrate the new couple!"
"I agree with Sally!" Quatre piped up.
"That's a wonderful idea!" Dorothy ran to the kitchen, dragging Trowa and Midi with her to help her make the cake. Sally followed after them to get the drinks. The others stayed in the living room and talked.
Thirty minutes later, the group heard a crash followed by laughter coming from the kitchen. They turned to look at the door in time to see Dorothy and a still laughing Sally pushing Trowa and Midi (who was giggling also) out of the kitchen. All four of them were covered in flour. Dorothy and Sally disappeared into the kitchen again. Trowa and Midi looked at each other and busted out laughing. The rest of the group laughed too. Trowa and Midi carefully went upstairs to shower (separately!-get your minds out of the gutter people! lol!) while the others laughed harder at their attempts to walk around the house without getting flour everywhere.
Duo laughed so hard he rolled right off the couch causing everyone to laugh harder. "Oh man!"
"That's…too much!" Trowa was doubled over.
Catherine was laughing so hard she was crying.
"It's the…hiccup…ghosts of…hiccup…their egos!" Quatre got the hiccups because he was laughing so hard.
"I wish I had my camera!" Lady Une exclaimed.
"Trowa, Midi, wait!" Relena grabbed her camera from her purse and got a picture of the two covered in flour. The flash caused Midi to be temporarily blind so she missed a step and toppled backwards onto Trowa, who fell on his butt and they slid down the stairs like the they were going backwards down a slide. This caused another round of laughter.
Dorothy and Sally came out of the kitchen to see what was so funny and were shown the picture of Trowa and Midi as the group explained what happened. The two women laughed as they headed back into the kitchen to finish the cake.
Up in a tree with a perfect view of the living room, Heero and Hilde almost fell out of their perch because they were laughing so hard. The couple left soon after for their honeymoon. They just wanted to check on their friends once more before they left on their honeymoon.
After the flour power couple had freshened up, the cake and cokes were served. The group of friends celebrated into the early hours of the morning.
To BGwildRoze: Is it any longer compared to the other chapters? I hope so I tried, but I didn't wanna take to long to update! I know it sucks when a story doesn't update very often. LOL!
There's the fifth chapter! Sorry it took so long to update! I got a little stuck on what to write! Please read and review! Thanks! GW Lu
