A/N: I don't own anything :P Anyway, I had this idea stirring in my head for a while, and I needed to write it down XD It'll be a challenge trying to write this story and Five Former Lovers, but hopefully, it'll work out. Reviews would be nice.
Madly in Love
"Could you clean that up, Usagi?" her voice had been polite and formal, but the look on her face was consumed by evil. It hurt to look straight into her eyes. "Yes, Ma'am." Usagi replied with no hesitation and she got down on her knees to clean the mess that Relena Peacecraft had purposely made.
I hated that woman. There was once a time that I enjoyed having her around. She used to be so kind to me. She used to be a nice woman, whom Usagi liked having around. Relena faked a gasp as she spotted me and raised a questioning eyebrow at Usagi. "What is your cat doing here?" her voice was raised in a dangerously high tone. Usagi shifted her attention to me and worriedly whispered for me to leave.
"Luna, please." Usagi pleaded under her breath. I still didn't get it. I didn't cause any trouble. Utterly ridiculous, was what I wanted to say to Miss Peacecraft, but no one could understand what I said. I was a cat after all.
"What's going on here?" Good, I thought. The good man has finally arrived. Relena smiled sweetly at her boyfriend and waved her hand in the air lazily. "Usagi missed a spot and I told her to clean it." She exclaimed in a nice voice.
Tell her off, Duo. I told him. "Relena, Usagi's not just a maid, y'know. She's our friend too." He stated as plain as day and turned to Usagi with a hand held out to her. "C'mon. You know you don't have to work too hard." He said in a gentle voice with a friendly smile. Usagi nodded and smiled wryly in response. "Thank you, Duo." She took his hand as he helped her off the ground.
I saw the look in Duo's eyes as Usagi stood before him. He was still in love with her. No matter how much more beautiful Relena was over Usagi, Duo Maxwell loved her. No one knew about his feelings—except for me, of course. Relena pursed her lips bitterly and turned away. "Shouldn't you be calling him 'master' or 'sir' since he's your boss?" she snapped.
Duo made a sour face as if he had just smelled his armpits after a two hour work-out. "You need to calm your pretty face, babe." He patted her back and smiled at me. "Hee-ey, Luna! I didn't see you there." He got down on one knee to rustle the fur on my head. I purred in gratitude. You're late, I said to him. Any later, and your horrid girlfriend would have had me kicked out!
Relena wrinkled her nose in disgust. "That cat is leaving fur balls everywhere! Why do you let her in the house?" she crossed her arms impatiently. Duo ignored her remark. "You're coming to the party tonight, right?" his eyes widening with excitement. Usagi shrugged. "Heero and I wanted to hang out tonight." She said with an embarrassed expression. Duo's grin faded into a grim line. "Well, ok. I understand." He stated in a forced way. Usagi arched a brow. "How important is this party, exactly?"
Duo shook his head. "Nothing special. You know me; party boy." He waved his hand lazily in the air. Usagi nodded. "Well then, if there's nothing more for me to do for you, I'll see you tomorrow." She bowed respectfully and plucked me from the ground. Holding me in her arms, she waved at Duo then at the bad woman standing beside him with a hateful look in her eyes and she exited Duo's house.
Heero was waiting at Usagi's house. When we got there, he kept to himself—staring at the screen of his laptop for long periods. I looked up at Usagi from her lap and saw how bored and disappointed she looked. I meowed loudly and dashed across the room onto Heero's lap, just behind laptop. I poked my head from behind the screen and raised a paw. Heero grunted and lazily ran his hand over my head a few times. I lashed out at him with a louder, more whiny meow. Your girlfriend is dying of boredom, Mr. Yuy! I shrieked. Heero seemed to understand me because he looked up from his laptop slightly and set it aside to sit next to Usagi on the couch across from him.
"What would you like to do." It wasn't a question. It was more of a friendly demand. Usagi pouted and slumped into Heero's chest. "This," she muttered under her breath and closed her eyes. Heero froze under her presence. From the looks of it, he wasn't used to doing those kinds of things. Feeling slightly jealous, I stalked towards the two and jumped onto Usagi's lap where I curled into a ball and fell asleep.
After what fatlike an hour or so, I awoke to see Heero propped on the couch across from Usagi and I. He was on his laptop again. I stretched out before leaping next to Heero, curious about what he was doing on his laptop.
"Had a nice nap?" he asked me, to which I replied with a yawn. I curled up next to him and peeked over his arm to see what he had been staring at. I hissed, causing Heero to avert his eyes cautiously at me.
What in the world do you think you're doing? I pawed his arm roughly. You're supposed to be spending time with Usagi—and here you are, spying on that bad woman! I think my loud cries of distress prompted Usagi to awaken, because she suddenly appeared in front of Heero with her palms planted firmly on her hips.
"Why is Luna crying? What did you do?" she asked, sternly. Heero shrugged casually. "How should I know? She curled up next to me, then she started clawing at me. Does she have rabies?" I wasn't sure if had been joking or not, but it hurt my feelings. I meowed again. I DO NOT HAVE RABIES!
Usagi gasped and held me in her arms. "Luna's not rabid!" she shrieked in horror. I noticed something weird with Heero this time. He stared at the screen of his laptop sternly. His eyes were narrowed and his lips formed a thin line. Curiosity overwhelmed me, and I pounced next to him again.
"Relena Peacecraft," Duo stated down on one knee. "Will you marry me?"
I finally understood why Heero had been so preoccupied with his stupid laptop. Even though he was with Usagi, he was still madly in love with Relena.
