It was 7:30. Heero had always been on prompt and sure enough here he was, on a motorcycle, wearing a tuxedo. This was great; here she was the Queen of the Cinq Kingdom, and honestly the world if she wanted it, going to her 16th birthday party with a Gundam Pilot! The thought of Heero and what they were doing made her go weak in the knees once more.

"Hello Relena." Damn, she was beautiful. She had on a long, black evening gown that accentuated her curves and her breasts- What was he thinking? He knew he'd never get it. "Come on, let's go. Watch your dress; you're justn gonna have to hike it up some."

They reached to ballroom ten minutes later. The other guests were stunned to see Queen Relena get off a motorcyle with some guy. Quatra rushed out to meet them- he didn't want to miss this.

"Hello Relena, Heero, " he said while kissing Relena's hand very quicly; after all, he didn't want to die. "You look lovelier every time I see you. Heero you always clean up so well. Duo Trowa, and Wufei are already here."

"Don't flatter me." Of course they would be here; they worked for Quatra. They weren't going to miss Heero and Relena on a "date"; bets were probably being taken on how far he would get or if tonight was the night.

"Hello, hello my two young lovers. Romeo and Juliet, Tristan and Isolde, etc., etc." yelled a guy with a long braid.

"Hello Duo, everybody. I'll be back; I have to at least talk to the people who are throing me this "party". I am 16, not 50, can't they play good music instead of having a ten-piece orchestra?!"

"So Heero, how's it going?", asked Wufei, a sly smile on his mouth. The question seemed innocent enough but he knew there was more to it.

"Just fine, what's in it for you?"

"$1000."

"Is that the agreed upon amount for everybody?"

"Yes, me and Duo for all the way, Quatra for third base, Trowa for second base."

"I'm not in the habit of making other people rich."

"Everybody's gotta start somewhere," said Trowa.

Relena had come back, so they abruptly shut up. She knew what they had been talking about; it was so obvious, but she didn't say anything. "I want to dance."

They went to the dance floor and proceeded to waltz, since that was what was being played. They danced so gracefully; it looked as if they had been doing it all their lives. The other guests took note of this and left so that they could have the whole dance floor. Everybody was mesmerized; Heero and Relena looked like a king who had just found his queen.

At 10:00 the cake was served. Quatra got up on the mic and said, "Now that cake has been served, let's get this show on the road! Relena, my music is hooked up to the sound system. Which song do you want to hear first?"

She looked at Heero and said, "Ain't Too Proud To Beg."

All the younger guests started to cut loose after this. Tuxedo jackets came off, girls changed into shorter party dresses. Real dancing started, like at a 16th birthday party. The older guests didn't know what to make of it.

Midnight rolled around and Relena thanked everybody for coming. It had been the best birthday party she had ever had. When she had bid everybody good night she found Heero. "Let's go to your place," she whispered in his ear. That smile came across his face and after they had left Duo adn Wufei exclaimed, "Gentlemen, we'll take our $2,000 a piece now."
