--------------------------------------------------------------------
This is my story, and I'm sticking with it. I've had many things happen to
me in my eighteen years, but trust me; this about tops the cake. I.... well,
I won't tell you just yet. Instead, I will tell you the story of how my life
changed from one single event.
1 year ago
When I was 14, I became Sailor Moon, champion of justice. Ever since then
I've been fighting evil and saving the planet with my four best friends, and
this mysterious, handsome, and not to mention sexy, man in a tuxedo. Ok,
maybe I'm getting a little carried away with myself, but I guess you could
say I had a minor crush on him. I mean come on! What's not to love?!
Every time I'm in trouble, he sweeps down, and saves me with a single blood
red rose. *Romantic sigh* So maybe I'm being a little pathetic, but who
wouldn't want to be saved like that by a sexy man? *Giggle* Anyway, back to
the story. We've been doing this for the past four years. Luckily we
haven't seen any trouble for the past two months, but I can't help but
feel a little disappointed that I don't get to see tuxedo mask (that's
what we call the mysterious guy). Today is April 15, two days before
Rei's birthday. The girls and I are planning a huge surprise party
because it will be her eighteenth birthday. It is going to be a huge
slumber party at her temple with all of her close friends. Actually, it
was Chad's idea. He's the guy that studies at her temple who has a HUGE
crush on Rei. He called me one day and asked it I would help him. Of
course I would! Rei's one of my best friends! So, he and I got together
one day and started planning it out. Since it was such a huge job, I
recruited Makoto, Ami, and Minako (my fellow senshi). We were each in
charge of a job and mine was to invite all the guests. I had to see who
was coming and not coming. I finished the list, but I knew one name was
missing from it. A name that would disappoint Rei if he did not come...
or was not even invited. You see, I love Rei dearly, but I totally loathe
the person whom I'm battling over inviting or not. All we ever do is
fight. What's that? You think you know who it is now? Yup! You guessed
it! Mamoru-baka. The biggest jerk in the universe. What's worse is that
he is totally gorgeous. Nevertheless, I know what I have to do. I have
to invite him. After all, this is for Rei, not me. I don't even know
why they're friends. All they do is practice karate together. *Sigh*
Oh well. It's now or never, I see him coming my way.
"Hey! Mamoru-baka! Come here a sec!" I shout over in his direction. Oh
good! He spotted me. He's coming this way.
"What can I do for the mighty odango today? Need some help studying?"
Of course he has that cocky grin on his face while talking to me. I
don't need one of our little battles of wit right now. I am on a mission.
"Will you just shut up and listen to me for a sec? I'm not sure if you
know this, but on the 17th, it's Rei's birthday. Chad, the girls and I
are planning a party for her."
Mamoru saw where this was going and got a huge grin on his face. "What's
this I hear? Is the Odango Atama going to invite *me* to a party? Why I
would love to come! If not for Rei, then for some time to annoy you."
Ok buster. This means war. Picture little flags of battle going up
around my head.
"Why you stuck up, greasy haired, JERK! Yes, I am inviting you, but only
because I *have* too! Anywhere near you is nowhere I want to be! I don't
care if you are the most handsome man on earth! I don't want to continue
this right now! I have plans to attend to!" And at that little note of
fury I threw at him, I turned my heels and stormed off. OOH! That Mamoru-
baka!!! He gets me so riled up. Sometimes I wish he would just go back
to that hole he crawled out of. I do not even remember a thing I said to
him because I was so hyped up. I hope I wasn't too mean...no matter how
much I dislike him. I don't want to be mean. It's just not my nature.
*Sigh* Oh well, no use thinking about water under the bridge. I have too
much to do.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
April 16
Well, I have everyone on the invite list taken care of except Motoki. I'm
sure he'd like to come. I walked into crown game center (where he worked)
praying that Mamoru-baka would not be there. Ok, so maybe I wouldn't mind
if he was, but I was not in the mood to battle it out with him. I wish we
didn't fight so much. Anyway, I looked around, and he wasn't there. Whew!
I saw Motoki behind the counter cleaning it, and walked up to him with a
beaming smile.
"Hi Motoki! How are you today?" Ah, even though I don't like him, he's fun
to flirt with. Actually, Minako's the one who has the hots for him.
"Hey Usagi! I'm great. What can I get for you?" Motoki smiled back. You
know, he has a dazzling smile. If I weren't so obsessed with someone else,
I'd totally go for him.
"Just a chocolate shake. Thank you. Actually, I'm here for a reason.
Tomorrow is Rei's birthday and we're having a party."
"Is that right? She's 18 this year, right?" Motoki asked over the noise
of the blender.
"Yeppers! I was hoping you'd be able to make it over to her temple at 7pm.
It's a slumber party. Don't worry if you don't want to spend the night,
it'd be great if you could just make an appearance while not in uniform.
Go ahead and bring a friend if you want." Please say yes! Please say yes!
Minako would be ecstatic!
"Hey, could I bring Mamoru? I know you're not too fond of him, but I know
he's friends with Rei."
"Actually, that'd be great. I invited him, but kinda forget to tell him
when and where. Besides, I *do* like him, I just wish we didn't fight all
the time. If we didn't, he'd be mine in an instant." Um...oops. Probably
shouldn't have told Motoki that with him being so close to Mamoru-baka and
all. But heck, what do I have to lose? Another fight with Mamoru? Not like
I care...much...ok. I do, but that's not gunna change anything anytime soon.
Who am I kidding? I'm head over heels for him. Man! Do I have a track
record or what!?? A masked hero, and a person who hates me! I pulled out
of my thoughts and looked at Motoki. Hey, why does he have that goofy look
on his face? All twisted around and such into a scary smile. "Um, Motoki?
Is something wrong?" Now I'm puzzled.
"You like Mamoru? I knew it!! I was right all along! So *that's* why you two
fight all the time! It's the sexual tension!" Ok. Now he's scaring me.
He's starting to sound like Makoto on stereoids.
"Um...yah. Always have." I'm thinking it's time to make my exit. "uh...I'd
better get going Motoki. I'll see you tomorrow! Thanks for the shake, here."
I jumped of the stool, threw a fiver on the counter, and walked out the door.
Motoki was too into his own little world to notice me leaving. Whatever!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
April 17 The day of the party
Today is Rei's birthday and everything is all set. The party is in two hours
and I have to get her out of there before the guests arrive. The plan is for
Makoto and I to take her out pretending that that's all we're doing for her
birthday, and then we take her back to the temple for cake and presents. Ami
lied and said she had to go out of town to a medical conference, so she could
stay at the temple and get things ready. Minako lied and said she had to run
to London because of some "mysterious" readings Artemis cooked up so she could
help Ami and Chad at the temple.
Makoto and I decided to take Rei to the racetrack to watch Haruka race, and to
the park afterwards for a quick personal concert from Michiru. Rei seemed
unsuspecting of everything, and quite pissed off that Minako and Ami would miss
her birthday. While she was complaining to Mako and I, we were giving thumbs
up to each other behind her back. The evening was peaceful, and we were on our
way back to the temple so she could open her gifts from us. Not far from the
temple, there were rows and rows of cars. Well, Rei being Rei couldn't just
let it slide that someone was having a party and she wasn't. No, for a whole
two blocks, Mako and I had to listen to her bitch about how she didn't get a
party, and how cars just pollute the earth, and how everyone was too busy for
her birthday. Mako and I just rolled our eyes. What could we say to counter
her? "No Rei! We do love you! In fact, we're going back to the temple so you
can have your surprise b-day party!" Nopers. We had to listen to her moan.
When we reached the temple, there was an eerie quiet surrounding it. The
prayer bells rustled in the wind, but that was all that could be heard. Me,
being afraid of the dark opted to stand behind Makoto and Rei while we ventured
into the unknown. Now, let me tell you, no matter how much you expect to see
20 people jump out of the dark and yell "Surprise!", when it actually happens,
it's terrifying. When it happened, I jumped about two feet in the air and
screamed louder then Makoto and Rei combined. Mission accomplished. The
surprise was successful and Rei was thrilled. Minako and Ami were right out
in front, so Rei ran to give them a hug. Tears misted her eyes, though she
tried to hide it. Wait, or was it tears in my eyes from seeing my friend
happy. Either way, it was a wonderful feeling. Not even Mamoru-baka could
ruin this moment.
Wait! Nope. I was wrong. He could. He and Motoki were in charge of bringing
the cake, so they made their appearance coming out of the kitchen with a huge,
glorious, chocolate cake in hand. It was quite stunning with all the candles
covering it. Well, it wasn't stunning too long. Motoki tripped over the door
ledge coming into the main room and let go of the cake. That threw Mamoru-baka
off balance, and sent him and the cake hurling into...yup. You guessed it.
Me. Wonderful little perfect target, me. Not only did I have cake all over
me; I had Mamoru-baka on top of me as well! I was covered from head to toe, and
what a mess I was.
The crowd was horrified. Not a sound was heard, except a unified "gasp", me,
and Mamoru's groans. Yuck. I didn't say a word. I didn't scream, or cry
surprisingly. I got up and stormed out of the room. I headed straight toward
the shower, stripped off my cloths, and jumped in. I wasn't about to let that
baka ruin my evening. I un-did my "odango's" and let my hair fall past my knees.
I didn't get much cake in my hair, but I did all over the rest of me. My cloths
were totaled. That's ok. I'd just borrow one of Rei's outfits. Everything
would be ok.
Or would it? I heard the door open, and stiffened slightly. Maybe it was just
Rei coming in to check on me. Nope. I'm not that lucky.
"Hurry up Odango! I'm just as messy as you are! And don't use all of the hot
water!" Ok. Now I was pissed. I didn't say a single word to him earlier.
I didn't yell at him for dropping cake all over me. I didn't yell at him for
falling on top of me...not that I minded. But now he has the nerve to march
in the bathroom *while* I am showering and demand that I get out? No. I don't
think so.
"Listen you baka! Who do you think you are marching in here while I'm showering
and pushing me around! I haven't done anything mean to you, so what have I done
to deserve this? For your information I will use all the hot water I please, and
if you want some of it, you'd better jump in here with me." There. That'll
scare him off. I waited to hear his response, or at least to hear the door shut.
Good. There goes the door.
-Wait- what's that rustling around I hear out there. NO! He isn't! He
wouldn't, he can't be! He wouldn't dare! Oh my god!!! Oh my god!!! He is!
That moron! Sure enough, two seconds later the door slides open and in jumps
Mamoru-baka. Oh my god, he did *not* just jump in the shower with me. No,
he didn't. This is all a dream. I am imaging this. Nothing like this
happens to innocent girls like me. I'll just close my eyes, continue to
lather my hair, and he'll go away. Maybe not.
"Hey! Watch it Odango! You just elbowed me in the chest! And would you mind
moving? You're blocking all the water!" Mamoru said. My eyes snapped open,
and I whipped around to face him. Whoops, bad idea. I'm naked. I turned
back quickly before he could get much of a view. Wait a minute...hold it right
there. We're in a shower. Aren't people supposed to be naked in a shower?
Then that would mean.....
OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Mamoru-baka is in the shower *NAKED* with me!!!!!!!!!
"AAAHHHH!!!!" A hand quickly cupped my mouth to cover my scream.
"Will you shut up!?? What if someone walked in here! Do you know how bad this
would look?!" Well DUH!!! Does he know how had this *does* look? I don't get it,
I thought he hated me, so why is he in the shower with me? Oh, that's it. I've
got it. It's just another way to get to me. To annoy me. Dork. Nevertheless,
...still, I wonder how many girls can claim they've been in the shower with Chiba
Mamoru? A small smile graced my lips...until an elbow pelted me in the back and
sent me lunging forward. I was going down and I was going down hard. I didn't
want to grab onto anything for fear of what I would grab, if you know what I mean.
I closed my eyes tightly expecting the pain...but it never came.
Warm hands grabbed my waist right below my breasts saving me from my fall.
"I'm sorry, are you ok? It's a little hard to lather with *both* of us in here."
Um...hun? Your arms are still around me. Not that I mind or anything....
"Huh? Oh, yah. I know what you mean. Try lathering this." I said motioning to
my hair.
"Geez! I know! How do you do it? Keep such long hair I mean. It's really
beautiful though." "Why don't you ever wear it down?"
Hmm...why don't I wear it down?
"Um...I guess to keep it out of my way. Do you know how hard it is to wear
hair this long down? You have to keep it out of dirt and watch closing doors,
etc. It's just easier this way I guess." Ok, enough of this small talk.
Who small talks in showers anyway? Um...bad question. Now my turn to be daring.
"Hey, why don't you lather my hair, then you step in front of me, and I'll lather
yours. How does that sound? That way we won't injure each other."
"Wow! A good idea coming from you! I'm impressed!" Ouch. That one hurt.
That was the sound of me crushing one of his bare feet. "OUCH! Okay!
Okay! I'm sorry! You're right, that was mean. I'm sorry, I just can't help but
tease you. I don't know why, I don't ever mean it. In fact, I wish I didn't
do it." Hm...being a little open, aren't we?
"Then why do you? It really hurts sometimes, you know? Especially when you
make fun of the way I look. I'm really self-conscious about that." Ooh!
This feels good! Finally letting him know how I feel when he makes fun of me!
Oh yah, and him lathering my hair...but that's a whole other thing...hehehehe
*evil grin*
"You're right. I'm sorry. I promise to try and not tease you any more. Besides,
why would you be worried about how you look? You're beautiful?" How do I respond to that one? I think I'll just let that slide and pray
that he doesn't do anything stupid to ruin it.
"There. You're done. Now it's my turn for you to do my hair. I'll just step
in front of you now."
"Um...how are we supposed to do that? We're both naked, remember?"
"Yah, something like that seemed to flash across my memory." I can just see his
cocky grin, even though I'm not facing him. "Just turn sideways, and slide
past me." Ok, sounds easy enough. Here goes nothing. I close my eyes tightly,
turn, and begging to slide past him, seeing nothing as I go.
Whoops. Here I go again. I accidentally tripped on one of his feet, and
started to fall. Once again, before I fell, he wrapped his arms around me
and saved my from my fall. I could feel my skin burning from a blush. Hey!
It's not everyday my archenemy saves me naked! I could hear him chuckle slightly.
Something tickled my nose. My nose started to itch, so I twitched it. I was
afraid to lift my hand to scratch it for fear I would accidentally hit "something".
I kept my eyes tightly closed because I didn't want to see the look on his face
laughing at me. I can only imaging how stupid I look with my face all scrunched
up, subconsciously trying to itch my nose.
"Here, you've got some suds on your nose. Let me help you." Mamoru
said gently. Funny, that didn't *sound* to insulting. Maybe he actually *is*
trying to be nicer to me. All of a sudden I felt a warmth on my nose. It
sent a fire throughout my body. Wait a minute...that didn't feel like a finger.
Ugh. I must be imagining things. Being in the shower with my secret crush is
not doing good things to my rationale. I hope I don't lose it while running my
fingers through his gorgeous jet-black hair.
I shook my head and opened my eyes. I looked at his strong, sexy back....
This is not good. Quick! Say something before he thinks I'm crazy! "See
Mamoru-baka? Having one of your fingers touch me *won't* turn you to stone!"
I heard him sigh.
"Usa, I never thought that. Besides, that wasn't my...." *sigh again*
"Nevermind." Uh oh, I hope I didn't get him mad, but how could I have done
that? What was he going to say? Why didn't he finish? Darnit! I want to know!
"What Mamo-chan?" Oops, kinda let that one slip out. He started to turn,
but my hands running through his silky, soft, hair prevented it. *Shakes head
again* Snap out of it Usa! Get a grip! But it's so...so...ARGH! "Argh!"
"Huh? Did you say something Usagi?" Oops! Said that aloud.
"Nope! Just your imagination!" Or mine..."Almost done. I just have to finish
washing the soap out of your hair and you'll be all set! There! Done! Now you
can get out of the shower with awful old me." *sad sigh* Darn! Just when I was
starting to enjoy this. I'd better get out of the shower now, or I never will.
I started to open the curtain.
"Usagi, wait!" Mamoru said with almost a desperate tone. "Listen to me for a
sec. Do you think I would have jumped in the shower with you if I thought
you were awful?" I turned to look at him, not even thinking to look below his
face. Where's he going with this? "Do you think I hate you?"
"well? Do you?"
I hang my head. "Yes."
"Oh god Usako, I'm sorry." Woah! *Head pops up like a puppy* Did he just
say what I thought he said? I looked at him wide-eyed with shock written all
over my face.
"What?" I choked out.
"Let me ask you this, a minute ago when you had the suds on your nose , do you really think I used my finger to brush them away?"
Ok! What was I supposed to say to that one? Could my wildest dreams really
be coming true? This is not happening to me. The man I have a huge crush
on is *not* saying he kissed me a few minutes ago.... I broke the intense
look he held on me. Although I couldn't see him looking at me, I felt his
intense gaze burning into my soul. This has to be some sort of cruel joke
from him. Does his think this is funny? Playing with my heart like this?
Tears started to sting my eyes.
"Who do you think you are Chiba Mamoru?! Do you think this is funny playing
with my heart? It hurt before when it was just hollow insults you threw at
me, but this! This goes far beyond any of that! I actually began to think
you could possible like me! But no! This is just another one of your games."
Tears started to fall. "How could I actually have fallen for you?" I said
more to myself then to him. I turned around to get out, but before I could,
his powerful hand grabbed onto my arm and whipped me around to face him.
Water blasted out of the showerhead, so the tears streaming down my face were
hidden.
"Oh Usako! Please don't cry!" damn. He knows. "I never meant to hurt you!
Honest! How could I hurt someone so much that I am in love with?" Hold your
horses buddy, what did you just say? Shock was clearly written across my face.
"Yah, that's right. I'm in love with you. I have been for a long time. When
Motoki told me what you said to him yesterday in the arcade, I wasn't sure if
I believed him or not. I mean, after how cruel I had been to you, how could
you still possibly care for me? But then I thought, why would Motoki lie to me
about something that I feel so passionate? So that's how I knew that you
didn't hate me. That's when I knew I had to change, so that maybe I still had
a chance." Tears poured out of my eyes. God bless that shower water running...
Darnit Mamoru-baka! Now why did you have to go and turn off that water
for? I looked up at him with big blue eyes. He cupped his hands to my faces
rubbing the tears from my eyes. "Now, do you still think I am the most handsome
man alive." Pause.
"Huh? When did I say that?"
"When you invited me to Rei's party, and got all fired up at me. I guess you were
so mad you didn't realize what you were saying." Uh oh, now I remember.
"So? Do you?" He had that cocky grin on his face. My face was burning, so I turned
my head down to avoid his gaze.
WOAH!!! Shouldn't have done that!! Kinda forgot he was naked and facing me....
*sweatdrops* This is the first time I had ever seen any man naked. Hm...Not bad.
Before I embarrassed myself anymore, I tightly closed my eyes. I felt one oh his
hands on my chin tilting it up, and seconds later, soft lips caressed mine. My
body melted into his, as I brought up one of my hands and placed it on his smooth,
hard, wet, er...naked, chest. I opened my mouth more and gave myself freely to
him. What started to be a sweet, chaste kiss ended up being a hot meeting of
the mouths. All of my passion poured into him, and his into me. My body
crushed into him, and he moved one hand to the small of my back, and the other
at the base of my neck, embedded in my mass of long blond hair.
We both lost track of the world around us completely, and time stopped. For us
anyway. What we didn't know is that we were in Rei's bathroom, completely naked
and making out (moving a little beyond innocent), and absent from the party for
what must have been quite some time because after a few minutes, I heard a knock
on the bathroom door.
"Usagi? Are you still in there?" I heard Motoki's voice through the door.
Both Mamoru and I froze, and reluctantly broke from our deep kiss. Hey! How
did his hand get there!?!
"Um, Hello? Is anyone in there?" Motoki repeated again. Mamo-chan and I
panicked.
"Quick! Say something Mamo-chan!" I whispered.
"Me?? He's asking for you!" Mamo-chan whispered back.
"Yah, but Rei has only one shower, and I've been missing too long for it to still
be me in the shower. Besides, where have *you* been??" I shot back.
"No Motoki!" Mamo-chan shouted. "Usako...er...Usagi's not in here! It's just
me." Mamo-chan stuttered. "She left for Rei's room to change when I came in here."
"Ok Mamoru! But be careful where you use your pet name for Usagi. She might hear
you. Oh, and is it alright if I come in and use the toilet? I *really* have to
go." Motoki asked.
"Um..." Mamo-chan paused, looking down in fear at me. "Sure, go ahead." He
responded slowly. Oh god! What was he saying! EEEWWWW!!! Yuck! I don't
need to hear that!!!
"Jeez Mamoru! It's just me! No need to be afraid! After all, it's not as if
we've never done it before. We're all guys in here." Motoki said as he stepped
in the bathroom. Oh my god! This is not happening! I shook with fear. Mamo-chan
wrapped his arms around me tightly, pressing my head against his wet chest firmly.
"are you going to stay in there forever? The water's been off for quite some time
you know." Motoki said as he unzipped his pants. Oh god oh god. I
scrunched my face in Mamo-chan's chest, trying to block out the sound...of...um...
well. You know.
"Um, no, in fact, I was just getting out. You mind handing me that towel?"
Mamo-chan stuttered, searching for a plan.
"Sure, no prob. bud." Mamo-chan reluctantly let go of his grip on me to grab the
towel Motoki was handing him and stepped out. Ooh! Nice butt Mamo-chan!
Wait a minute! I'm in here all alone now! What do I do? Just stay in here crouched
toward the floor? I guess so!
"Are you clothes very dirty?" Motoki asked. What's with the small talk!?!?
Can't you just finish your business and go?!
"Er, no. Not too bad. They're ok to wear again. My head took the brunt of
the fall. Poor Usagi is the one that really got pelted." Mamo-chan said.
Motoki must have finished, because he zipped up his pants, and started walking
towards the door. "Cheer up bud, you'll get your girl, just give her time, and
STOP being such a jerk to her!" And with that said, Motoki gave Mamo-chan a slap
on the back, and walked out. Whew! Glad that's over!
Mamo-chan came back over to the shower and opened the curtain. He took a big
fluffy towel and wrapped my shivering body in it. He lifted me up and out of
the shower and placed me on the counter, next to the sink. "I'm sorry Usako.
I didn't know what else to do. I couldn't just say "No" to him. That would
have made him suspicious. Are you okay?" I just looked at him. I had no clue
what to say or do.
"Um, Mamo-chan? First of all, watch where you use my pet name. After all, you
never know when I might be listening" I said playfully, batting his nose gently
with my finger. "And secondly, do you have any great ideas as of how to get out
of here? We can't both be caught coming out of the bathroom. That would look
*really* bad." Mamo-chan placed his hands on my shoulders and thought for a sec.
You know, he really does have the most beautiful blue eyes I've ever seen. So
clear and deep. Kind of like what Earth looks like from the moon. Both show
hidden depths. Oh brother. I'm getting carried away again. Think Usagi,
think! There has to be some way to get out of here alive.
"I think I may have an idea. Why don't we both jet for Rei's room at the same
time? I'll creep out first, since I'm the only one they think is in the bathroom,
I'll check to see if the coast is clear, and we'll both make a run for it. How
does that sound?" It sounds like your reaching for straws Mamo-chan.
"I don't know Mamo-chan. What if the coast *isn't* clear?" I ask unsurely.
"Then we'll cross that bridge when we come to it. K?" He beamed at me with
a beautiful smile. I had never seen him truly smile until now, and let me
tell you!!!! Who wouldn't melt at the sight of that?? *smile*
"Ok. I'm up for it." Hm...Me in a towel, running through the halls of Rei's
temple wildly with my archenemy. Now there's something you don't see everyday.
Mamo-chan opened the bathroom door slowly and peered out. He stepped out
a little bit and whipped his head around wildly, checking to see if anyone was
there. He stepped out a foot further, still looking around cautiously. He
motioned me to follow, and we tore off down the halls.
Uh oh! Mamo-chan doesn't know where Rei's room is! Shoot! I'd better take the
lead before he leads us out into the main hall where the party is. I ran in
front of him and guided him to her room. When we reached our destination, the
door was open, and a light was on. Oh no! who's in there? I peaked my head around
the corner to see who was in the room. There in the corner stood Rei. Oh great.
Just great. I *really* don't need this right now. I motioned Mamo-chan to hide
himself while I venture in her room trying to get her to leave.
"Hi Rei! How's the party going?" I asked rather non-chillantly.
"There you are Usagi! Where have you been for the past hour? We were all worried
about you! And why are you still in a towel?" An hour? We were in the shower for
an hour?! Gee, time sure flies when you're having fun....
"Um...I took a shower, and I just finished. Do you mind if I borrow one of your
dresses?" Please buy it! Please buy it! I crossed my fingers behind my back.
Mamo-chan reached out from his hiding place behind the curtains to give my waist a
reassuring squeeze. Wasn't quite expecting that one. "Eeek!!" Oops.
"What was that for Usagi?" Rei asked quickly. Um...Think Usagi think!
"I thought I saw a spider. Yah! That's it! A spider!" I stuttered. Brilliant.
Just brilliant.
"Ok Usagi. Whatever. I think you must have been in the shower too long. You
washed your brains out." Brat. I stuck my tongue out at her. She did the same.
Tongue war. Nothing new.
"Well, give me a few minutes to change. I'll be out in a little bit. You'd
better get going or your guests will start to wonder." That sounded good, now
if only she'll buy it!
"Ok, I'll see you in a couple minutes! Try not to ruin any of my cloths!" Rei
smiled. "Just kidding Usagi! By the way, what was it like having Mamoru fall
on top of you?" *sweatdrops* "Oh come on! Quite the "I hate him" act.
We all know you'd love to get him alone in a closet for 10 minutes." If only you
knew Rei dear, If only you knew.
"Yah," I smile back, "That or a nice steamy shower...." Ouch! That hurt Mamo-
chan! He just poked me in the back really hard.
"You go girl!" Rei encouraged! She gave me a thumbs up. "Wish I would have
thought of that one. *giggle* Anyway, I'll go now so you can get changed.
I'll see you in a few minutes!" Rei started to walk out of the room. I backed
up farther so I could cover Mamo-chan in his hiding spot. Whew! Coast clear!
Once Rei was out of site, we both ran into her room.
"Man that was close! I thought we were goner's for sure!" I confessed.
"Yah, I just hope she doesn't run into Motoki...." Mamo-chan added. Ooh.
Forgot about that one. Hm...that could be bad. Oh, what are the chances
of that happening though? We'll be just fine. Before anyone else caught us, I
shut the door behind us.
"Safe. So," *wicked smile* "We're still in towels, and in a room alone,"
*Seductive grin* "You have any ideas?" Ooh! I feel like a hunter, and
Mamo-chan is my prey. I have a feeling he just realized this, because he
started to back away a bit. Your not getting away *that* easy towel boy.
"Um...Usako? Don't you think we should be getting back to the party? We're
probably starting to be missed..." Run Mamo-chan. Run while you still have
a chance. I'm hunting Mamo-chans!! Fun!
"No, we'll be just fine. Trust me." That's it. You're a goner this time.
I start my advance. I'm not sure if that's fear in his eyes or anticipation.
Either way I don't care. I remembered the door and quick ran back to lock it.
I think Mamo-chan finally gave in, because he started advancing toward me
quickly. God! He looks like a hungry animal! He swept me up into his arms
and started carrying me to the bed. Mamo-chan tossed
me onto the bed. Shoot! Lousy towel! Quick! Go for the covers!
"Usako, you are the most beautiful woman I have ever seen. You are so
kind, caring, sweet, loving, and giving. *And* you have a perfect body."
"Your such a wonderful person. I just can't believe I'm
here now, with you right here in front of me." Oh! How sweet! My Mamo-chan's
a romantic! "Do you think you could ever love me...as more then a friend?"
Um...hello? Have you been paying attention to me lately? I guess not.
Boys are stupid.
"Mamo-chan? Have you been paying attention to me at all?" He hopped on to
the bed next to me and wrapped his arms around me. *happy sigh*
"What do you mean?" He responded, with a puzzled look on his face.
"I mean that I always have. It's always been you. Ever since the beginning,
I've dreamed about you being mine, and having you feel the same way about me
as I do you. Don't you get it? I loved you since day one." Mamo-chan was
silent. I didn't quite know what to say after that. In my mind, the ball
was in his court.
"Do you know how long I've waited to hear you say that? How I've dreamed of
this moment?" His eyes shone with unshed tears and pure happiness. Yah, I
think I do know. I've waited just as long. "Some day I'll tell you my
story. About me. I promise. Right now, it's just you and me though.
Together, with no one in our way." How sweet! I decided to
make myself a little more "comfy". I laid my head onto his bare chest and
rested it there. I could feel his stomach rising and falling with each breath
he took. The warmth I felt from his lying next to my was incredible. Like
my soul was on fire. He moved his hand onto my head, playing with my hair
slightly. "I wish we could lay like this forever." He said softly.
From that moment on, time stood still for us. We watched an eternity pass us
by that only we two could see. The outside world continued, but we remained
its one constant. Forever in each other's arms. I glanced up to look at his
face. His eyes were closed, and he had a peaceful look on his face. He had
fallen asleep. He looked even more beautiful right now than I could have ever
imagined.
"I love you Mamo-chan. More then you'll even know." I breathed to him. I
leaned up and kissed him gently on his lips. He smiled, but didn't awaken.
His breathing slowed, and its steady rhythm lulled me to sleep.
Now, you can imagine how bad this looks. My archenemy and I sleeping in
Rei's bed together *naked*. But trust me! It's completely innocent! We
just fell asleep in each other's arms! Now, one might wonder *why* we were
in each other's arms...but I think the initial shock of seeing us together
like that would be enough. So, with saying that, I can only imagine what
went through Rei's mind when she found us asleep in each other's arms.
"AAAHHH! OH MY GOD!!!"
Thunk.
After Rei's scream, Motoki, Makoto, Minako, and Ami ran in to see what was wrong.
Thunk.
Thunk.
Thunk.
Thunk.
Mamo-chan was the first to wake from Rei's scream. Busted. He tried to wake
me, but let me tell you, waking me is like trying to waking the dead. However,
my Mamo-chan! Let me tell you! He's so creative! Always finding new ways around
things. Therefore, to wake me, he pressed his lips firmly against mine in a
soul-searing kiss...right as the others started to wake up.
Thunk.
Thunk.
Thunk.
Thunk.
Thunk.
"Huh? Mamo-chan? What's going on?" Now I, I was still a bit groggy from my
peaceful little rest on my Mamo-chan's bare chest.
"I think we have company." He said, motioning to the floor. Oh boy. How
are we going to talk our way out of this one?
"Um...any bright ideas?" I asked, looking up at him with my adorable puppy
eyes.
"Nope. You?" I shook my head. Darn.
"Though suppose getting dressed would be on top of my list" I said motioning
to our current "condition". Mamo-chan blushed. I hopped out of bed, wrapped
a towel around me, and headed to Rei's closet. Mamo-chan did the same, only
grabbing his clothing off the floor to put it on. I found a cute little black
dress that Rei doesn't wear very much. (SM Book 12-Rei's dream) I must say,
I look way cuter in this dress then Rei did. I glanced over to see
how Mamo-chan was doing. He was just finishing up. "So what do we do now?"
I asked.
"I say we step over these sleeping beauties and go grab something to eat.
I'm starting to get hungry, and I know that won't be a problem for you."
Mamo-chan kidded. Pretending to be hurt, I walked over to him and lightly
punched him in the stomach. Mamo-chan played along and pretended to be hurt.
I giggled at the funny picture. However, there are more important things to
be done! Such as going to the kitchen so get something to eat! I grabbed
Mamo-chan's hand and stepped over our friends on the way to the kitchen.
When we reached our destination, we found a table overflowing with goodies.
In addition, I saw that Makoto had made another cake. Wow, we must have
been out for a long time for them to have time to make a whole other cake.
I was in snacking heaven. I started advancing toward the cornucopia,
when two powerful hands around my waist held me back.
"Woah Usako! Think before you take. If you haven't noticed, there are 15
other guests aside from ourselves." Mamo-chan warned me. Hm...good point.
I suppose it would be rather rude of me to eat all their food.
"Ok, I'll just eat of *your* plate then!" I said to him, looking up at him
with my most innocent grin I could muster. He sweatdropped.
"What have I gotten myself into?" Mamo-chan asked himself, shaking his head.
He proceeded for the food, with me right behind him. As he walked down the
table, he would point to something, asking if I wanted some. I would just
nod or shake my head. For once, I wasn't being a total pig. Wow, miracles
*do* happen!
When we reached the end of the "buffet" table, his plate wasn't too overflowing.
We went out into the main room of the temple and found ourselves a cozy spot in
the corner. From there, we could watch the other guests, occasionally making
comments to each other about them. About 10 minutes after we sat down to eat,
Rei, Makoto, Minako, Motoki, and Ami came into the room, looking around. Probably
for Mamo-chan and I.
"Don't look now, but our army has arrived and they appear to be looking for us."
Mamo-chan said, leaning into me. While he was there in the position, he stole
a quick kiss from me...of course right as one of the troops spotted us.
"There they are!" we heard from one of them...probably Minako. We both tensed
subconsciously, expecting the worst. When the reached us, we were bombarded
with an assault of questions. Mamo-chan and I just sat there taking it all in.
Neither one of us said a word, though the questions continued.
Finally, Ami seemed to get fed up and started to shout. "Will everyone just
shut up? How do you expect to get an answer like this?" I recoiled a bit
from Ami's temper. Mamo-chan pulled me closer to him. I had never seen Ami
get so riled up before. Ami, hun, it just doesn't suit you to get mad like that.
The whole party silenced from Ami's outburst. All 15 sets of eyes in the room
turned to look at Mamo-chan and I huddled together in the corner. We heard a
few gasps of surprise, and saw a few shocked faces. What?! What is everyone
looking at? It's just me and my archenemy holding each other like there's no
tomorrow! What's wrong with that?
Rei finally decided to speak up. "Will one of you two mind telling me what
you were doing sleeping on my bed together *naked*?" A few heads nodded in
agreement with her question. Traitors.
"Sleeping?" I responded. Rei frowned.
"Ok then, what were you doing sleeping with him?" Hey! Now that sounds bad!
I was not sleeping with him! Mearly napping!
Mamo-chan saw the look on my face, and finished for me. "We were tired,
and both crashed out on the bed. N O T H I N G happened. It was completely
innocent. Usak..er...Usagi and I simply fell asleep next to each other.
That's it." Sorry Mamo-chan, but the mob just doesn't look satisfied with that
answer.
"Ok smart guy." Motoki added. "Then why were you both naked and on top of
each other?" Motoki shot a grin of satisfaction towards Mamo-chan. Shoot,
how are we supposed to answer that one.
"I believe that's *our* business Motoki." Good one Mamo-chan! Way to avoid
the question! Score one for Mamo-chan!
"So, were you two getting frisky on Rei's bed?" WOAH!! She DID NOT just go
there!
"Minako!! How dare you! How would you like if I told Motoki what you *really*
thought of him?!?" I shot at her. Hm...that was a bit low, but no worse then
what she said about Mamo-chan and I. Motoki's ears perked up when he heard
his name.
"Huh? What does Minako think of me?" Motoki asked innocently.
"Nevermind!" Minako shot at him. Ooh! This is getting good! I see
opportunity to divert attention away from Mamo-chan and I!! Sorry Minako,
this is for your own good.
"No Minako, why *don't* you tell Motoki what you think of him? Don't you
think he'd want to know that you're head-over-heals in love with him?"
Ooh...Minako was shooting me death stares. If looks could kill....
Motoki looked a bit flustered. More so then Minako I think.
"You what? Huh? Is she kidding?" Motoki said, looking straight at Minako.
"I...uh...I...uh..." Minako hung her head in defeat. She was beat red.
"Yes, it's true." Minako whispered a death threat to me. Ouch! That's mean
Minako!
"Well, Motoki, why don't you tell Minako what you really think of her?"
Wha? Mamo-chan? What have you got up your sleeve? "Yah! That's right
Minako! Motoki feels the same about you! He tells me so everytime you
walk in the arcade." Way to go Mamo-chan! Score two for Mamo-chan! Motoki
and Minako were just looking at each other. Both of their faces were beat
red.
"WOAH!! Hold up a sec! How did we get from asking why you and Mamoru
were sleeping together"
"Er...*Napping* together..." sorry Makoto, had to clarify that one.
"*napping* together then to Minako and Matoki? Let's stay focused people!"
Makoto blared. Darn Makoto. I cursed her silently under my breath.
I shot her a dirty look.
"YAH!" Minako and Motoki both shouted at the same time! "Come on! Spill
it!" Minako added. Brat. I'll get you back. Wait...I already did...
shoot!
"Fine!" Mamo-chan yelled. "You wanna know what happened? Here! I'll
tell you what happened! Usako and I finally set our differences aside
and got together! You want to know why were "sleeping" together? Because
we were tired! Why were we naked?! Because we..."
"Mamo-chan!" I shouted before he went too far. As much as I love all our
friends, if we told them the real story of what happened, they'd read into
it and misunderstand what really happened. Can't let that happen! Mamo-chan
quieted down and blushed.
"Sorry hon, guess I got a bit carried away." Mamo-chan said smiling at me. He
leaned over and gave me a peck on the cheek.
"Now! For all you piranha's who want to know what happened between us, you
should be ashamed of yourselves!" I scolded. Ooh! Go me! "That is none
of your buisness! What you *can* know is that Mamo-chan and I are together
now. Any questions? DON'T ASK!" There! Got that out! Moreover, all it
took was exploding at my friends.
All five of them recoiled back in fear, some with shame and astonishment
written on their faces. Well they should feel bad! That was rude! I
suppose they had never before seen me lose my temper. I turned to look
at Mamo-chan with a bright smile on my face. Hey! What is that look for!
He had a look of astonishment on his face as well. Well, I'd change that
real soon! I leaned over and captured his lips on mine in a long sweet kiss.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Present
Well, that's what happened. That's how my life was changed from one single
event. This is my story and I'm sticking to it. I suppose y'all want to
know what happened with Minako and Motoki right? Well, later that night they
went into their *own* corner and started making out. They've been together
ever since.
Mamo-chan and I are still together today and our relationship is stronger than
it's ever been. In fact, I'm moving in to his apartment Friday, but tonight
we're going to Rei's 19th birthday party.
Oh! I forgot to mention! Mamo-chan is Tuxedo Mask! However, that's another story
for another night. Good Night Y'all!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The End
Author's Notes: Well, this is the end of this story. Should I do another part
on how Usagi finds out Mamoru is Tuxedo Mask? Hm...That could be funny too...
*wicked smile* Thank you all who read this, and special thanks to Janet-chan!
The best daughter a mom could ask for! You're the best Janet-chan!
