A Dozen Roses
Now it's not everyday that I wake up in the morning and there is a red rose on my bed. Well lately it has been every morning. But about a week ago this was all very very new to me. Not that I mind. I am a terrible romantic. I live to read romance novels, go to 'chick' flicks and cry over every broken heart. The first rose I recieved I assumed it was Mom and Dad being nice. But the second and third day I asked them about it. They said they had no clue who was giving me roses. It couldn't have been Sammy. He is going through his rebelious stage. So here I am, on my way to school yet again holding a red rose in full bloom.
I can't help but be curious as to who is sending these to me. My friends all tease me over some hot boyfriend I've been hiding. Minako thinks It's some secret admirer. I hope he's gorgeous. With beautifull blue eyes, and silky black hair I can run my fingers through and of course his to die for smile. Rei keeps saying to stop day dreaming, that its probably Melvin. *sigh* I wish...
*BUMP*
*THUD*
*PAPERS FLYING*
"Oh!" I sit on my butt for a moment still surprised before I quickly regain my composure and start appologizing. "I'm so sorry I wasn't looking where I was...going." My words trail off as I see who it is.
Mamoru.
He smiles and helps me to my feet. I gather my things up and notice my rose. It is completely smashed. I look at it sadly. and he smiles at me again. "What are you smiling at?! Are you happy that it's ruined?!" I ask him angrily with unshed tears in my eyes at his cruelness.
"I'm sure there will be more. You've gotten one everyday now for a week. What makes you think they will stop coming?" He asked me and my eyes widened.
"How did you know about that?" I asked still looking at him in disbelief.
"I have my ways." He smiles and continues walking.
I didn't realize how long I was standing there but soon enough I heard the bell ring in the distance. Oh no! Now I'm late again! I run off to class and after a hundred appologies to Haruna-sensei I took my seat and waited for class to begin.
I didn't get detention today since this was the first time in a while I have been late. It was about 5 or 6 months ago that I started to take my work seriously. Come to think of it, that was also around the time I met Mamoru. *grins sheepishly* I geuss I just didn't want to be known as the klutz or meatball head anymore. He has been treating me a lot differently lately. When he first found out about my improvement he was very skepitcal, then he was a bit surprised, respectful, and even proud. When he had to inroduce to me to Motoki's sister (Motoki was busy) he had this proud grin on his face. I beamed at that. I made my Mamo-chan proud!
Mamo-chan?! Where did that come from?! I know we have been friends latley but MAMO-CHAN?! ok maybe that isn't such a bad idea, but what about my mystery guy? I cut off my thoughts as I see the Crown Arcade in front of me. I walk in the doors and took a seat at the counter to wait for Motoki.
"Usagi! How are you doing?" He smiled at me.
"Pretty good. You?" I asked back.
"Great. But I have something that will make your day even more perfect!" He had that mischief grin on his face and I couldn't help but admit it was contagious.
"What?"
"This." He pulled out a red rose and my eyes were impossibly round.
"You. Were you the one thats been giving me the roses? That would explain why Mamoru knew about it." I looked at him for an anwer and he just smiled.
"Can't say Usagi." He leaned closer to me and wispered, "But your gonna faint when you find out." He placed a kiss on my cheek and went to take another persons orders.
I blinked a couple of times. Motoki? He has been the one giving me roses? Lita is gonna flip when she finds out!
"Hey Usagi." Mamoru called from behind me. I looked over to see him sitting in a booth waving for me. I walked over and sat down across from him. He looked a bit mad but quickly replaced it with a wonderful smile. "Whos the rose from?"
I smiled slyly at him. "Shouldn't you know? You knew about the others." He laughed and agreed he knew all too well who they were from.
"Then who?!" I insisted. I know it can't be Motoki. He was talking about some Rika girl a couple of days ago.
Mamoru smiled at me and got up out of the booth. But before I could go after him my friends all piled in.
"Usagi! Hows it going?" Lita asked as she claimed her seat next to Ami and Rei
"Well I was just about to find out who I was getting these roses from but Mamoru just walked off." They looked at me surprised.
"You mean you still don't know? After all this?!" Ami asked.
I looked annoyed. "No! but it seems everyone else does!" I looked at them expecting an answer. None of them looked like they would be talking anytime soon so I gave up with a humf.
"Come on Usagi! Think. Think hard."
"Well for a minute I thought it was Motoki cause he gave me this one and kiss my cheek but then I remember he was talking about a Rika girl a couple of days ago so it can't be him. Besides he's like a brother to me." I didn't want to say I had Mamoru in mind though.
"Since this girl is totally clueless how about we help her out, guys?" Rei asked everyone with a smile. All of them smiled in return as Ami pulled out a peice of paper. There was an address on it. I looked up at them confused but they weren't there anymore. I looked around surprised but they were long gone.
I shrugged my shoulders and got up to leave. I'll just go to this address and hopefully he will be there. But before I exited the arcade I heard Motoki cal to me. "Good luck!" He said and I smiled and answered back a 'thanks' before continuing on my way.
It led to an apartment building. But it didn't have a floor number on it or anything. How was i suppose to... But before I could finish the thought a lady came up to me. She looked at something in her hand and then back at me. She smiled and held out the picture to me. It was a picture of me! I looked back to her. "This is for you, Miss." She said and handed me a rose and told me to read the back of the picture. I thanked her and flipped the picture over. It was taken at the fair about a couple of weeks earlier. I had on a white sundress with pinks flowers on it and ribbons wrapped around my buns. I never knew anyone took a picture of me that day. I looked to the back and read,
'On the tenth floor, you will find
a special secret behind door nine!'
I almost laughed out loud. How often does this happen? Getting flowers, secret messages and led on a treasure hunt! I got to the elevator and pushed the buttong for floor 10. When the door opened to the right floor I saw a rose on the ground with another note. After I read it I had no doubt this was for me.
'Continue on you way, to find love so true
that just happens to be waiting for you'
I walked down the hall and stopped at door nine. There was a rose on the floor in front of the door and I picked it up. How many are there by now? 11? I raised my hand to knock on the door. I didn't have to wait long. The door opened and all I saw was red? There was a rose held in front of my eyes.
"Guess who?" I gasped and grabbed the rose from my veiw. There he stood in front of me, smiling like an idiot and I almost cried. I wrapped my arms around his neck and hugged the life out of him. "Usako?" He wispered.
"Hmm?" I looked up at him and he kissed me. It was so sweet. "Dimond." I sighed his name.
(AN: I'm joking don't kill me!)
Revision:
"Hmm?" I looked up at him and he kissed me. It was so sweet. "Mamo-chan" I sighed as we broke the kiss.
He smiled, "Mamo-chan? huh? I like it." And with that we shared another kiss before closing the door and having the best lemonade ever on the softest couch and in my favorite appartment having a very interesting conversation.
AN~ Sorry about the whole Dimond thing but I just had to put that in there! lol! Kyoki is gonna kill me for that too. Well I did this story on the spur of the moment just because I wanted to write and I had an idea and I think it came out pretty good.
