Usagi ran home because she knew her mama was making lemon cream pie. She was so happy, finally, her first year of high school was over. She walked in and yelled to the top of her lungs "I'm home!" She let her shoes fall off her feet and skipped jollily to the kitchen where her mother was reading the mail. "Oh Welcome back dear. There's mail for you." She said as she laid a tall white envelope on the table. "Hmm?" Usagi mumbled as she already had pie in her mouth. She walked over to the table and opened the envelope to read what was inside of it. It was a letter saying…

Hello Usagi,

I am the head of Atsumi Beach resort. And we'd like to congratulate

you and your five friends for winning an all expense free week trip

to Beach Atsumi. You will be provided with a free cabin that includes

three bunk beds, an extra private room with a queen bed for your

chaperone who must be over eighteen, and two bathrooms. Food and

drink is also provided for free and plenty of activities at the main house.

You also receive free access to Atsumi sports center and private beach.

All of this and more can be yours for a whole week for only twenty

thousand yen. For more information call us at XXX-XXX-XXX4. (cause I can't

give an actual number to a fake resort) Hope to see you there.

Signed, Ito Genpachirou Sempai

"Wow! A beach resort? Mom! Look at this." Usagi and her mother look through the letter and because her mom seen how excited her daughter was she decided to check it out so she called the number. Everything sounded nice, trustworthy, and it wasn't even that expensive. Her mother told her she'd talk about it with papa when he came home. Usagi thanked her mom, kissed her cheek, and ran out to tell her friends about it. She ran to Rei's temple and everyone was already there talking about it with the same letter in their hands.

"But Usagi, one of your parents would need to be the chaperone because our parents are away." Rei said.

"Huh? But I don't even know if my parents will be willing to!?" Usagi complained.

"Then I guess we won't go." She said sticking her nose up in the opposite direction.

"Rei-Chan! That's not fair! I want to go! I want to go so bad!" Usagi whined.

"Now hold on you two, we need a chaperone but it doesn't necessarily have to be Usagi's parents, the letter said it must be someone over eighteen." Ami said.

"Yes but who else do we know that's over eighteen that can go with us?" Rei said.

"Oh yes I see your point." Ami said with her head down.

"Wait! My mom said she'd talk about it tonight with my dad. I can find out the answer tonight and call everyone tonight." Usagi suggested cheerfully.

"Ok, then it's settled. And we all need to pitch in as well." Makoto smiled.

"I'm so excited!" Minako said jumping.

Later that night Usagi went home and walked into the living room where her parents were waiting for her. "Usagi, first I want you to know that papa and I both would love for you and your friends to go on this trip. But papa is busy and so is mama." Her mother said. "B-But you guys!" "I'm sorry Usagi, I wish there was some other way but there isn't." Papa said. Usagi ran out to her room where she cried and called Rei first. "Looks like we can't do it after all." She said sniffling.

"Well don't cry, we can always go to the beach together another time." Rei said.

"But the resort looked so nice in the brosure, I wanted to go so bad!"

"I understand bu-"

"Wait! I know! I'll call you right back." She said quickly hanging up and redialing a new number.

"Hello?" A man's voice answered on the other side of the line.

"Mamo-Chan!" Usagi said all cheerful.

"Hey Usako! What's up?" Mamoru asked. Usagi explained the trip to Mamoru and begged him to come. "I don't know. I have to finish this paper before Monday and I get out fro college on Tuesday."

"That's okay! We can go after. Oh please, please Mamo-Chan!"

"Are your parents okay with this?"

"Uh…they should really get to know and meet you properly. I have an idea! Come over for dinner on Thursday! My mom's making pasta."

"Well, I don't know…"

"Pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee ee!?"

"Approve it with your parents first. I don't want you getting into anymore trouble."

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"I heard you had computer privileges taken away because your grades needed improving."

"Well…yes, but I did raise them before I got out of school."

"I'll go, only if it's okay with your parents."

"Okay, I'll ask them after dinner."

"I'll make sure you do." Mamoru said smiling over the phone. Usagi stuck her tongue out and giggled. The two talked for at least an hour and a half. Their conversations never got boring or dry. He made her giggle a lot as she made him smile a lot. Both of them were just really happy together.

"It's getting late, and you should be going to bed." He said.

"Hmm!" She pouted.

He chuckled. "Goodnight! I love you!"

Her heart felt like it stopped when he said that, she had to take a moment to catch her breath. "I-I love you too. Night!" And they both hung up like that. She gently rested her head on the foot of the bed, smiling as she closed her eyes and fell asleep.
