Relena hadn't spent as much time as she should have with the people from her world that were here. She'd spent some time around Heero when she'd first arrived, but had developed somewhat of an independent nature back home that had come with her to this place. It wasn't that any of them made her feel smothered or suffocated in any way, it was that she realized how much she had relied on other people in her youth and was determined not to step back into those shoes.

"So, what'll ya have?" he asked, referring to lunch. Might as well get all that out of the way and then they could sit and talk for a bit.
