Author's side notes:
This is my 1st ever fanfic of Seiya and Usagi. I really like these couple/pairings but have no fear; dear readers, this fanfic do not contain any Mamoru/Tuxedo Kamen/King Endymion bashing. I still like the guy. I apologise if my grammars and vocabs are not that good, it's been a while since I've written any stories/fics, so please bear with me on this. Anyway, please be nice and give reviews if you can.
This is a two-chapter fic but depending on how well receive the fic will be, it may be longer than that..Who knows? Yoroshiku onegaishimasu!! Sore Ja! ()V

PLEASE CALL ME ODANGO by aRiaHime
Everyone was happy and sad; that day at the school's roof top. It was the day when the starlights and their princess; Princess Kakyuu was about to return to the planet of Kinmoku after defeating and releashing Galaxia from Chaos's control. It was also the last time any of the sailor senshi will ever see of the kimoku-ans. Unaware by Tsukino Usagi, it was probably the most regrettable day of her life. If only she knew back then that it was.
2 months later..
"Mamo-chan, are you really sure? I mean are you really really really sure you want to??" Usagi said those words for the 6th time today with eyes wide and sparkling. Usagi peered deeply and lovingly into the eyes of her beloved boyfriend; Chiba Mamoru. Mamoru upon seeing that expression again, can't help but melted with the love for the girl who had captured his heart every time and again and on how unrelenting she has become lately. Sighing and sweat dropped (for the 6th time too), "Yes, Usako. I'm really really really sure of my decision. If you don't mind Usako..can we please just enjoy our date?"
"Oh, okay!" said Usagi with a huge smile and a content look on her face as she clings on affectionately on the arm of her beloved. She was so happy and thrilled when Mamoru told her that he will not leave her and continue his studies in America for the time being so that he can spend more time with his much-loved Usagi…well, at least until she graduates next year. They were having their casual but romantic date at the Zoo today as Mamoru knows how much Usagi loves to be there and he likes the way she get so excited about almost everything there. Especially when she talks about the animals there such as giraffes, panda, squirrels and such; like as if she had never seen them before.
But Mamoru was also starting to grow concern now about Usagi as she has not really paid much attention to him when he asked her what she wanted to play when they had arrived at the arcade late that evening. She was mostly staring off to the direction of the toy vending machine which was located at the corner of the arcade with eyes that seems sad for some reason. This situation always happens whenever he brings her there. Seeing her acting that way every so often makes Mamoru can't help but concerned over her.
"Usako? Are you alright?" he said after seeing Usagi being so unresponsive again. Startled, Usagi just smile sweetly at him and said, "Oh..yes,yes. I'm fine, Mamo-chan. Lets play some games." Though she was not answering him honestly; whatever it was that bothered her, he knew that she was just trying to make him feel at ease.
/Usako…/
"Okay. Where should we start?" was his only reaction after hearing that. Taking his hand in hers, she smiled and instantly regains her usual cheerful self and started playing whatever games in the arcade that she sees except for that vending machine. Although Mamoru wasn't much the gamer-type, he was still glad that he manages to play all the games well for an amateur.
Soon after; almost an hour later to be exact, both was feeling exhausted and decided that it was getting pretty late so they decided just to head home. As always, Mamoru would drive Usagi home. "That was fun Mamo-chan. I love you." Usagi said and reach for her love. "Yes, that was fun. I love you too, Usako." After a moment of sweet kiss and saying goodnight to one another, they both agreed to see each other again the following day.
"Tadaima!" she greets upon reaching and opening her front door. "Okaerinasai, Usagi. Had fun? You do know you're 10 minutes late from the allowable scheduled time?" replied her mother, Ikuko-san as soon as she saw her daughter arrived home. "Yes Mom. We were having so much fun today that we completely forgot about the time. Gomen nasai…" Usagi replied while slightly bowing her head to her mom. She knew she didn't manage to come home on time as promised.
"I forgive you this time, Usagi." while hugging her daughter, "But remember Usagi, you are still a child to me; no matter how old you are now so if you ever come home late for what ever reason, please do give me a message or phone just to ease my mind? Ok, dear?" "Hi, wakarimashita…" Usagi replied smiling back at her mother; she knew that her mother was not really angry with her.
"Good girl. Now, run along upstairs and go to bed. Good night, dear." satisfied with her reply, she kisses her daughter on her forehead. "Hi. Oyasumi nasai, okasan." Usagi then straight away went upstairs to her bedroom; change her clothes and falls asleep dreaming of her dearly loved Mamo-chan.
The next day…
"USAGI Usagi...!! Will you wake up already?! Do you know what time is it now??" a high pitched voice was heard screaming at Usagi's ear making her jumped from her bed. This was the usual routine that occured everyday in the Tsukino household. Still shacken by the sudden awaking from her beauty sleep though, she searches for the source of that annoying voice. There stood at the top of her bed's headboard was a black cat with a golden crescent moon on its forehead. "Usagi, when will you ever learn to be responsible?" said Luna the cat.
"Luna, that is not the way to treat your master!" bellowed Usagi half sarcastically. "What? Master? You?" Luna growled but not as furiously as she intended to. "Anyway, I am being responsible…well, I'm trying to." Usagi said while frantically struggling to beat the time as it was now 7.45am which was pretty darn late if she can still make it to school on time. Hearing those words from Usagi, Luna just shrugged her tiny shoulders and disappeared out from the window. "I really hope so, princess…Sigh" Luna said to herself.
It was about 7.58am when Usagi finally had arrived at the front gate of the Jyuuban High School. Joining her race to the classroom was none other than Aino Minako, a beautiful girl with long blonde hair who was also one of her best-est friend and fellow senshi. "Ohayo, Usagi! Sure is nice to do some exercise every morning, ain't it?" Minako said half sarcastically to Usagi.
"Whatever, Mina-chan! See ya!" Usagi shouted back at Minako and quickly sprinted towards her 'goal', and leaving her behind with her 'dust'. "Hey! No fair!" shouted Minako when she realised just how far Usagi already was from her. For someone who was always bad at sports, Usagi always runs faster in times like this. Well, who can blame her? Luckily for both of them, the homeroom teacher was late 5 minutes.
As Usagi reaches for her seat, she glances at the empty seats that were previously occupied by three very special students just 2 months before. One seat was in front of Makoto, another was next to Minako and the last was behind her own seat, this seat where once belonged to an annoying, obnoxious, arrogant and yet sweet and charming guy. She smiled sadly just remembering his antics; and distinctive voice calling her nickname, Odango. Remembering that, she finally realised that he never did ever call her by her real name. Sighing low, she turns her attention back to the front of the classroom. Ami, Makoto and Minako had always realised these just look back at each other and sigh as well. Not long after, the homeroom teacher had arrived and was checking and taking the class's attendance.
Enduring through the day of school was always not really that great for Usagi, the only time that she enjoyed herself was during lunchtime with the girls. As usual, everyone had prepared their own Obento especially Makoto as she brought a 3-topped container containing the most delicious of food for them. Teppanyaki, Onigiri, Maki-sushi, Sandwiches and some cakes was amongst the list of foods available today.
"This is delicious, Mako-chan! I really love your obento!" Usagi cried happily with no elegance at all while chewing down the food in front of her. "Usagi-chan, please do not talk while your mouth is full…" Ami's concern voice was heard. "Ha ha ha. That's right, Usagi. Slow down a bit will you? You won't want a stomach-ache later, would you?" Makoto said after seeing Usagi devouring the food with tears of joy in her eyes. "Minako, please tell her too." Ami said while still looking at Usagi anxiously. Frowning to both Ami and Makoto for their remarks, Usagi just continues to gulp the food all down un-gracefully.
"No worries, Ami-chan. You know it is useless to talk to her when she's like that." Minako said trying not to laugh at her friends' desperate attempt to 'educate' Usagi in the fine table manners. "Here Usagi, you can have this piece of strawberry shortcake." Makoto said not long after and handed her a piece that cake.
"Arigatou, Mako-chan..." Usagi said after she had gulped down all the food. But as soon as she saw the cake, her face suddenly saddened somewhat as she recalls back to the day when HE offered him to be her bodyguard and come to her house. It was also the day when Chibi-Chibi came and splattered the cake all over him.
Sighing once again she thought, /Oh..Seiya…/
