Disclaimer: I dun own Sailor nor do I own Gundam wing. This will go for all chapters since I hate repeating myself like a broken record.
A/n: I know this fic seems to support the fact that one should be slender to get people to like you.. well to be honest that's shit too so [plain and simple this is fiction and doesn't lay anywhere near my beliefs in life.
She sighed as she looked up at the buildings of Peacecraft Academy. Why her mother made her come to this school was beyond her, she could go to a regular Jr. High and a regular highschool when she graduated from eighth grade this year. She was constantly tormented and picked on, at this school, for various reasons one being because she was on the heavy side. Hell that was even an understatement. She was fat.. she couldn't even wear the school uniform because they didn't have her size. She always went home and cried because they were so mean to her. The boys would pretend to be interested in her and then embarrass her completely by saying something like 'who could like a cow like you??'
All but one guy at least. He was a complete gentleman with the kindest hear there was and even though it was hurting his reputation by being her friend he never really cared. He was more worried about her self esteem and whether she would hurt herself more then anything. Hell even one of his friends tormented her on a daily basis, when he was aound the populars of course outside of school he was nice to her but in the end she wasn't sure if she could trust his friendship to her because he was playing both sides. She walked in the class and all the stifled laughter began. She lowered her head and sat in her seat. Just then her chair collapsed underneath her and she fell on the floor and blinked.
"I told you her fat ass would break it one day!!" The scream of Duo Maxwell rang through the air. Usagi looked at the chair and realized everything had been unscrewed and set lighly so it would be easy to break.. even the petit form of Releana Peacecraft could easily break the chair. The sound of laughter became a faint buzz to her. They soon began screaming out the name they called her all the time… 'Blimpie'
"Duo.. That was mean!!" His gentle voice came from the doorway of the classroom and the clas quieted. It's usually one thing to mess with the richest boy in the universe but to piss him off was another. He was psychotic when he was furious.
"I was just having a little fun with Blimpie." Duo said earning a hard glare from the usual quiet boy. He walked over to the girl who was not sitting on the floor surrounded by broken pieces of her desk.
"Are you okay??" He asked gently.
"Fine, Quatre." She looked up hime with her crystalline blue eyes shining over with admiration. She sighed gently as the teacher came in and began yelling at the class for torturing her again and that only added to what more torture she would get later. The rest of the day was a blur. She only remembered sitting at lunch picking her food and the bitch of the school walked up to her and sat at the table she sat at alone.
"Why don't you ever listen to my wanings, Usagi.. err Blimpie!!"
"What warnings might those be Mina??"
"Stay the hell away from Quatre. He's mine."
"You can't tell me what to do!!" Usagi looked up at the girl that ha dit bad for her best friend.
"Listen, Everyone knows about your little crush on him, but get it through all that fat to your little brain. You'll never have him. HE on ly hangs around you because he pities you. I mean look at you and look at me I've got looks, popularity, brains and a body. You've got fat!! Catch my drift."
"Yeah I catch your drift you're a stuck up spoiled bitch." Usagi mushed her face into her tray off food and walked away. On her way out of the Cafceteria someone tripped her and the group next to her shok the tables and chairs and stuff as if in an earthquake, missing the sound of material ripping.
"I-Ididn't know we got Earthquakes in space!!!" A dark haired girl, part of Mina's clique, name Rei Hino screeched.
"No!! Wait that's just Usagi." Chad Rei's boyfriend said. Usagi stayed on the ground knowing she had tore her pants when she fell. She finally got up making the group of Populars laugh harder seeing the torn material, Quatre held up his jacket trying to help her out, but the taunting continued.
"You'll need a parachute to cover that tear, Winner!!" Mina said laughing despite the fact her face was covered with food.
"It's okay Quatre.. go back to your friends." Usagi said walking out of the cafeteria. Quatre glared at Mina who stopped her laughing.
"Come on, Quatre.. she's an easy target. You can't tell me you haven't tried to pick on her in secret." Quatre sighed and walked away.
"Smooth Aino." Rei said. "I'm sure he'll fall for you now."
"He will. Once we break Usagi's spirit and she finally leaves him alone."
"Usagi!!" Quatre called after the girl who was leaning against a few lockers wiping her tears away, but only to have more fall.
"Just go away!!" She screamed at him.
"you know I won't go." He said.
"You should. The kids will only make fun of you too!!" She said referring to those who were just making fun of her.
"And if they do??" he said.
"Quatre. You're popular, rich, nice and funny. People will only look at the fact that you're my friend and all of that will be over looked. So just save yourself the trouble and go away!!" She said.
"Usagi.. How long have we been friends??"
"Since the first grade… Seven and a half years."
"Seven an a half years is a long time." He said.
"Yeah and for four and a half years they've tormented me about my weight. Everyday I would think they would grow tired of doing this to me but they never do." She said taking the tissue from her.
"I'll always be here for you.. you and me are best friends forever." He said and the words stung her a bit.
"Forever.." She repeated with tears streaming down her face. He hugged her gently and she let him hold her despite the embarassment of her size.
"Sorry.." The gentle voice of Releana Peacecraft sounded interupting the two. "But Usagi, I have to talk to you." Her voice was gentle and full of worry. "Your parents were just in a car crash and they have been rushed to the hospital." She said. "They say they have a chance at making it but they are slim… If you wish to go see them you can go.."
"No.." Usagi said. "I'll stay. I'm sure things will be fine and.. I could always go right after last period since there are only two more classes." She said.
"If that's what you wish." Releana said as the bell rang.
"Yes." Usagi said. She and Quatre went back into the now empty cafeteria and gathered their stuff and made their way to Music class. That class seemed to be a blur as well as the next class.. the only thing she remembered was when the bell rang signaling the end of the day Releana had approached her again. "Did you receive any updates on my parents??" Usagi said noticing the heartbroken look upon her face.
"Yes, I did." Releana said knowing the news would crush the girl.
*~*~*~*~
A Few weeks later Usagi was on a shuttle crying her eyes out. She could still see her friend at the space port waving good-bye to her still. The thought of leaving him behind tore her heart to even smaller pieces than accepting her parents' death had. She had fallen for him a year ago when he stuck up for her when the other kids tormented her. She looked out the window again and he was still there looking like his whole world was shattered just then.
"I'll be back Quatre. I promise." She thought gently and the shuttle took off taking her to America to live with her race car driving sister and violinist sister-in-law. She kissed the necklac ehe had given her for her birthday not too long ago and vowed to come back to the Cinq Kingdom as a new person.
