Crybaby Part 5

"Well Seth, this week was truly perfect. Even though I got in trouble with Miss. Noin and Milliardo, it was worth it." They were outside on Relena's balcony gazing at the stars and Seth was holding Relena.

"Yes, Paris is truly the city of love." Seth said.

"Yeah, the lights, the shows, the food." Relena mused.

"The shows were absolutely amazing." Seth said.

"Yeah, especially the can can dancing. I bet you liked that." Relena teased.

"Well who wouldn't like to see a french girl in a short skirt." Seth replied.

"Then, Monsieur, I have la short skirt in la closet." Relena said in a fake French accent (ok, I'm not so great at French. Sue me, k.).

"It was funny when we came back and my brother started yelling at you and then pushed you out the door onto the mud." Relena laughed.

"Yeah, it was funny for you, but not for me. My suit is permanently stained and those were my favorite shoes." Seth replied.

"Oh please, you have about 5 pairs of them in your closet. They ain't that important." Relena told him.

"Yeah, but I was wearing those the day I met you." Seth said as he kissed her on the nose.

"Oh, well how about you wear them tomorrow, and I'll restart all over again. Deal." Relena replied turning around and looking at him.

"Deal." Seth answered kissing her.

"Bye Seth! I love you too. Give me regards to Sharon and lil Emily. Mwah" Relena said into the phone before making a kissy sound then hanging it up.

"Sorry about that Sally, but Seth is off in America visiting his sister who just had a baby." Relena said as she tucked the cell into her purse.

"That's ok Relena, you kind of expect some kind of interruption when you're busy 24/7." Sally replied as she poured tea into her cup.

"Well, anyway back to what we were talking about at the party, do you think that you love Seth? I mean, what about Heero?" Sally asked.

"Yeah, I mean you did love him before didn't you?" asked Dorothy. She, Relena, Sally, and Catherine were all at Relena's mansion having a girl to girl chat. Hilde wasn't there because she was still on her vacation.

"That was over 3 years ago you guys. And anyway, it was just puppy love. I mean, nothing serious." Relena replied as she sat back in her chair.

"Yeah, but you two seemed as if you were meant for each other. Besides, you two looked so cute together." Catherine said.

"Cuter then me and Seth?" asked Relena.

"Ahh, well you two definitely a cute couple, but you and Heero. Well, it would be better to see it then to just picture it." Dorothy said.

"If you guys like Heero so much, why don't you go out with him." Relena said huffily.

"We, my dear, are taken." Catherine reminded her showing up her ring finger, which all the other girls did too.

"Don't even remind me. I think Milliardo wants me to marry already. He wants his 20 year old baby sister married." Relena replied.

"Well, you are the only one without a ring adorning her finger. Which by the way, if you love Seth so much how come he hasn't popped the question yet?" asked Sally.

"Well, we just aren't ready. I mean, it has been only a month and you girls have known your guys for more than a year. I'm just not one of those girls who believe in love at first site. I think that you should get to know the guy before you marry him." Relena said (I totally believe in love at first site though).

"Yeah, but its nice going up to those snobby girls who poked fun at you in high school and show them your giant diamond rings on your hand." Doroty joked.

"Don't remind me of the past, I was the snobby rich girl." Relena said placing her hand on her forehead. All the other girls laughed.

"Heero, have you seen Dorothy around?" Quatre asked Heero. Heero was staying at Quatre's place because his apartment had a bug problem (not even the perfect soldier can get rid of those icky things).

"No." Heero replied.

"Oh, hmm. What's this?

'Went to Relena's to chat. Be back later.

Love you, Dorothy.' " Quatre read out loud.

"Seems she went to Relena's and will be back later." Quatre said.

"I wonder how you could tell?" muttered Heero.

"Hmmm, are you ok Heero. Ever since we came back from the party you seem, well a bit different then usual." Quatre said sitting down next to him on the kitchen table.

"Yes." Heero replied.

"Well, you were fine during the beginning. Then Duo said something about Relena. That's it! You still have feelings for you don't you Heero?" Quatre asked.

"No." Heero replied.

"Yes you do. You're jealous of her and umm, what's her boyfriends name." Quatre said trying to remember.

"Seth." Heero replied.

"See, you know her boyfriend's name." Quatre said.

"No, I just have good memory and is not getting old and forgetting things like you." Heero said as he got up and left.

"I don't like her. Hell, I don't even care about her. Then why the hell am I always thinking of her? Especially since she and her ugh, boyfriend showed up at the party." Heero thought to himself as he opened the door to his room and laid down on the bed.

"Maybe Quatre is right, maybe I do like her. But why only now am I really starting to care? Is it because maybe I'm jealous." Heero thought again.

"I need to sleep." Heero thought once more before he drifted off.

"Hello, could I please have some help here?" a voice Wufei could recognize. He was in the department store waiting for Sally to finish buying things and was walking around.

"Yes Mister, how can I help you?" the sales clerk asked.

"Yes, I am trying to buy an engagement ring." The voice said again. Wufei peaked through the shelf and saw Seth standing there looking at rings.

"It's that boy from the weaklings party. The one that weak girl is going out with." Wufei thought as he continued to spy.

"I see he is going to propose. I bet that girl is going to be so happy. Humph, weaklings." Wufei thought as he watched the man walk away with a 2-diamond karat engagement ring.

"Oh Wufei! Where are you? I'm finished shopping!" he heard Sally yell.

"Woman." Wufei muttered as he walked towards her.

"So Wufei, what did you do?" asked Sally as she handed him 3 bags for him to carry.

"Watching that weakling of that girl buy an engagement ring." Wufei replied.

"What? You saw Seth buy an engagement ring for Relena?" asked Sally as she dropped as he bags with a thud.

"Yes, why do you care?" Wufei asked.

"Oh my God! I have got to tell the girls." Sally said as she picked up the bags and ran to a table. She then set them down and took out her cell phone. Wufei just followed her and grumbled.

"Hello? May I please speak to Miss. Dorothy? Thank you." Sally said waiting impatiently.

"Hello, Dorothy? I got the most exciting news." Sally said.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Arghh! When did she get back? And why the hell is she screaming?" wondered Heero as he got up. He walked towards her office, about to yell at her until something she said caught his attention.

"I can't believe that Seth is going to propose!!!!!! I wonder what Relena will say! Oh my god, I can't believe it. Yeah, yeah, I know what she said when we were hanging out but maybe she was just holding it back. Well, you have to go now. Wufei is pestering you. Poor dear. Ok, I'll tell Catherine the news. Ok, Bye! Talk to you later." Dorothy said as she hung up the phone.

Heero then left walking back to his room.

"She's going to get married? Well, that's if she says. But of course she'll say yes. I mean, he has money and a wealthy business, and he loves her. But why do I care?" Heero thought as he walked back to his room and lay down on the bed.
