Gundam Wing Fan Fiction / Sailor Moon Fan Fiction ❯ To Trust and Love Again ❯ chapter 6 ( Chapter 6 )

Chapter 6

Author's Notes: To make this chapter and the rest of the chapters that follow not so confusing with whose using telepathy to talk here is a key.

`Italics'means a group of people is hearing the same thing.

* Italics *followed by<Italics>means only two people are talking to eachother telepathically. And if you see anything else in Italics it means a person is just thinking to themselves.

Trista walked into the kitchen and smiled faintly at Lita for cooking waffles, eggs, and bacons; and Michelle for stirring a pitcher of grape juice. "Morning."

"Morning, Trista." Hotaru said as she was setting the table, "How's Serenity-hime?"

Trista shook her head and walked up to pour herself a cup of tea, "No improvement."

"I'm sure she'll come around," Mina said as she sat down next to Trista with a glass of grape juice in hand. "So Trista, when does school start?"

"At nine." She smiled at them and pulled out some papers from her sub-space pocket, "Which reminds me, here are your schedules. I made sure that one of you or all of you will be with Serena."

Hotaru took her schedule and had a grin on her face as she looked over her classes, "I finally get to go to high school!"

Mina and Lita both laughed at her while Mina wrapped an arm around Hotaru's shoulders, "The best part is, WE'RE SENIORS!"

"Morning class!" The teacher chuckled as he heard groans fill the classroom and he smiled. "Now come on, Government isn't that bad. Not only do we have a quiz today, but we also have five new students." He motioned for the doorway and four girls walked in along with a "guy." "Please, introduce yourselves."

The new students looked at their new room and at each other. The first one to introduce themselves was a girl with blonde hair pulled back in a blue bow that matched the navy blue and white school uniforms. "Mina Aino."

"Well, Miss Aino pick a seat that's available and welcome to the Sanq Kingdom."

`Well girls where do you think I should sit?'

Lita looked at the room and smiled at a blonde hair young man who looked as if he couldn't keep his eyes off the scout of love, `How about the guy in the middle row, the empty desk behind him.?'

Mina looked to where her friend suggested and smiled. She flipped her hair back and walked towards the blonde and winked at him, "Hi!"

"Hel . . . Hello."

Mina gave him a 100-watt smile and sat behind him, "What's your name?"

The young man turned around and felt his cheeks turn like a cherry as he looked at the new student. "Um . . ."

Mina laughed and gave him another wink, "Well, Um, it's nice to meet you."

"Babe, let me introduce him for you. His name is Quatre Winner."

Mina looked to her left and saw a boy with long chestnut brown hair done in a braid looking at her and back to the boy in front of her, "Quatre, did anyone tell you how cute you look when you blush?"

Quatre let out a groan as he turned back in his seat and buried his face in his arms, How embarrassing.

The next girl to introduce herself had brown hair and emerald eyes. Her hair was pulled up into a ponytail and she wore pink rose earrings. She bowed before the class, "Lita Kino."

"Miss Kino, welcome and please sit in an available seat."

Lita looked at her options, she noticed there was a desk empty on the right side of the young man with the braid. Her emerald eyes noticed a young man with brown bangs covering one of his eyes and his eyes matching the color of hers had empty desks on either side, and finally a young man with black hair pulled back in a low pony tail. He had an empty desk on the left side of him. She winked at Mina as she walked past her and sat in the seat by the young man, "Hi."

The man looked at her and snorted as his coal eyes looked down at a piece of paper, "I do not speak to weak onnas."

Lita frowned at him and turned in her seat with her arms crossed and mumbled to him, "I'll show you weak, jackass."

Wufei raised an eyebrow as he looked at her, "What was that?"

Lita looked at him and smirked, "I thought you didn't speak to weak onnas."

"Hmph."

Three remaining students looked at each other and giggled, `Lita, does he look like your old boyfriend?'

Lita looked at Hotaru and glared, `Hell no!'

Hotaru smiled and stepped up to introduce herself, "Hotaru Tomoe." Shyly she held her books close to her chest as she walked towards the young man with the braid. Her eyes widen as a name escaped her lips, "Shingnami?"

The young man looked at her with confused eyes, "What did you say?"

"Um nothing." She quickly sat down to his right and kept her eyes glued to the front. I can't believe I just said that. Stupid, stupid, stupid!

The young man smiled and winked at her completely oblivious to the "man" standing at the front of the room giving him death glares, "So Beautiful, wanna go out with me?"

Hotaru looked at him with a raised eyebrow, "Excuse me?"

"I was wondering if you would like to go out with me tonight."

"Not that, what did you call me?"

"Beautiful."

Hotaru smiled at him while silently counting to ten, "My name isn't Beautiful, or Babe, or . . . or-"

He chuckled at her and cut her off with a 100-watt smile, "Or what?" He stuck out his hand and gave her another wink, "Name is Duo Maxwell. I may run and hide, but I don't tell lie. That's me in a nutshell."

Hotaru ignored his hand and looked into his cobalt eyes, "Quite a mouthful for someone who can't even remember a girl's name."

"Well . . . I . . . um . . ."

Hotaru giggled at his speechlessness and gave him a wink, "Do you even know my name?"

Duo scratched the back of his head as he looked into deep purple eyes that knew too much for someone as young as she. "Um, you know I was baffled by your beauty and dazzling voice that I didn't get your name."

Hotaru gave him a smirk. "If I may say so you were baffled by Mina's beauty," her smirk soon faded into a frown and her quiet voice grew cold, "not mine."

The teacher looked at the last students and at the time. "You two just introduce yourselves and find a seat so we can get started."

The "guy" stood up and bowed, "Amara Tenou."

The last girl with wavy sea green hair did a small curtsy, "Michelle Tomoe."

They walked to the back of the classroom; Michelle sat on the left side to a young man with brown hair that covered one of his emerald eyes while Amara sat on his right. *Since when did your last name change to Tomoe?* <Since Trista enrolled us in school.> *Oh really? It looks like we're just going to ask Trista a few things when we get home.* <I'm sure Trista has her reasons. -snickers- I think Mina is ruffling up some feathers don't you?>

They looked to the scout of love and had to hold back their laughter as they watched Mina poke Quatre in the back and watched him turn around, "Yes, Miss Mina?"

Mina looking at him with an angelic smile, "Could please tell me what page we're on?"

"Page 274."

"Thank-you."

"You're welcome."

Five minutes rolled around and Mina pocked him in the back with her pencil, "Quatre?"

Quatre turned around with his face red with anger, "NOW WHAT?!"

"Mr. Winner and Miss Aino is there something that I should be informed about?" The government teacher asked.

Mina glared at Quatre with her arms folded on her desk, "I was just going to ask Quatre if I could have some paper."

Quatre gave her a nod and handed her some paper, "There you go, Miss Mina."

Mina watched Quatre turn back around with an annoyed look and giggled to herself, `Girls, don't you think he's cute when he's mad?'

Lita's chuckle could be heard in their mind link as she spoke in their thoughts, `I never saw a guy such as Quatre get annoyed by you, Mina.'

`Hey . . .' She smiled at Lita and looked down at her paper. She took her pencil and poked him again, "Quatre?"

Quatre turned around while throwing his arms in the air, "WOULD YOU JUST LEAVE ME ALONE!"

Mina looked back at Quatre with anger swimming in her sapphire eyes, "You know WHAT Quatre, you're such a jerk. All I was going to do was say thank-you and all YOU have to do is yell at me. If I didn't know better you're just a stuck up rich boy who doesn't know when a girl is about to give you a compliment if it smacked you upside the head."

Quatre ignored the pencil he held in his hand as it snapped with anger from her words, "I wouldn't have snapped if you would just leave me alone. You're just a spoiled brat that thinks she can get anything she wants if she just flutters her eyelashes a couple of times."

SLAM! All heads turned to look at an annoyed teacher and gulped. "Mr. Winner and Miss Aino are you two finished?" He looked at the clock and back at his two disturbances, "I'll let you two off the hook for today, but tomorrow I hope you two come to class wanting to learn instead of bickering back and forth. Class dismissed."

Quatre looked down at his desk and turned around, "Mi-" He felt a weight fall upon his heart as he saw her leave the classroom with her head cast down towards the floor.

"I didn't know a girl could get you riled up like Mina did, Quatre."

Quatre looked up at Duo and Trowa and looked at the door, "I don't know what came over me."

~~~~***

"Where . . ." said a faint and dry voice.

"Serenity?" Trista said as she sat up in her chair and looked over at a sleeping Serena. Her hopes of seeing her waking up dwindled as she saw her princess fall back into a deep slumber. Trista gently brushed back Serena's bangs and felt her heart sink with a heavy burden. "Please wake up, Serenity."

~~~~***

"Duo, do you and your friends want to join my friends for lunch?"

Duo wrapped his left arm around Hotaru's shoulder as he gave her his famous grin, "Of course we would. Besides," he motioned with his head at a certain blonde, "Quatre needs to apologize to a certain someone."

"Where's Hotaru?" Amara asked as she sat down underneath a maple tree.

"I don't know, I think she should be here soon." Michelle said as she sat next to Amara and began to take out their lunch, "How has the rest of your classes been, everyone?"

Lita sat down with her lunch bag in hand, "Okay, I swear I'm going to be suspended on the first day if I see that chauvinist jackass."

Mina giggled at her and her sapphire eyes noticed a group of young men walking towards them along with their missing colleague, "Well if I were you Lita, I would start counting to a hundred."

"Why?" Amara asked but soon found the answer to her question along with a red flag. "Tell me that braided-baka doesn't have his arm wrapped around Hotaru's shoulders."

Michelle looked up and smiled, "He does."

"I'm going to kill-"

Michelle quickly cutting her threats off, "Now Amara, don't ruin this for Hotaru. This is the first time she's been able to be in the same grade as us and to experience a high school life."

Amara kept her eyes on her enemy and mumbled only for Michelle's ear to hear, "If he touches her anywhere else, he's a dead man."

"Hi!" Hotaru greeted with a grin on her face as she looked at her friends, "Duo and his friends will be joining us, is that okay?"

Lita and Mina both looked up and at her, "No."

Hotaru shook her head remembering what happened in her first class with Mina and Quatre, and also remembering what happened with Lita and a certain Chinese pilot during her second class. "To bad, I already invited them. Duo, these are my friends Amara, my step-sister Michelle, Mina, and Lita."

Quatre bowed, Duo grinned, and the three remaining pilots said nothing. Duo sat down next to Hotaru and pointed out to each of his friends as he called their names. "Ladies, these are my friends Heero Yuy aka The Perfect Soldier, Wufei Chang aka Wu-man, Trowa Barton, and Quatre Winner."

Michelle bowed her head as she said her hellos and her other comrades said nothing. "Duo, how long do we have for lunch?"

Duo looked down at Hotaru and smiled, "An hour long, the best period of the day."

Mina and Lita looked at him and laughed. "Serena would love it here."

Quatre looked at Mina with interest and curiosity rising, "Whose Serena?"

Amara slapped Mina in the head while the other sailor scouts were squirming in their seats. Mina answered his question with venom lacing her cheery voice, "A friend that will be joining us right after she gets over the flu."

Quatre gave her a nod and continued to eat his lunch while stealing a glance from Mina and knew what he needed to do. "Miss Mina about first hour-"

Mina quickly cut him off and was looking directly into his eyes, "I don't want to hear what you have to say, Quatre."

"Fine, then I guess you don't want these."

Mina looked down at his hands to find yellow tulips, "You didn't say anything about flowers."

Quatre felt his cheeks turn red as he handed them to her, "Then will you accept my apology?"

She wrapped her arms around him and gave him a kiss on the cheek, "Thank-you."

"Um . . . you. . . . your . . . welcome."

Everyone else just sat and watched the scene fold before them with their bashful friend and the blonde that could make him turn into a cherry within five seconds. Mina scooted closer to him and gave him her 100-watt smile, "Quatre, are you busy this Friday night?"

Now what did I get myself into? He felt his heart break as he looked at the most pathetic puppy-dogs expression and knew After Colony War four would break out if he declined her there and now. "No."

"Would you like to go and get some ice cream and maybe show me around?"

"Sure."

"Great!" She gave him a bear hug and a kiss on the cheek.
