Aino Minako sat next to her best friends in their favorite hangout the Crown Arcade. The four friends were watching their best friend Tsukino Usagi arguing with her archenemies, Chiba Mamoru. "For god's sake would those two just kiss already," Minako groaned as she watched Usagi scream at Mamoru and poke his chest in an accusing matter. "What in the world are you talking about Minako?" Ami Mizuno asked innocently. "It's so obvious! Those two like each other!" Minako exclaimed excitedly. "I wouldn't say that in front of Usagi," Makoto Kino warned her excited friend. "You conceited jerk!" Usagi yelled after Mamoru pointed out her awful grades.
"Beside that it's the silliest idea I ever heard. Those two hated each other with passion," Rei Hino said with a bored tone. "There's a thin line between love and hate," Minako insisted. The three girls stared at Minako. "What?" Minako asked. "You said something that made sense," Makoto pointed out. "Of course I did I always do!" Minako protested. Minako sipped her chocolate milkshake as she watch Mamoru and Usagi go on arguing. Something has to be done about those two, Minako thought to herself. Minako was the the soldier of love she couldn't just ignore that pair because they were simply meant to be. Minako didn't know how she knew it. Minako just knew.
Minako thought it might be because she was the Sailor Senshi of love. It had been bothering her for a while. "We need to make a plan," Minako declared. "A plan? For what, Minako?" Ami asked as she flipped through the thick chemistry book she was reading. "A plan to get Usagi and Mamoru together of course!" Minako exclaimed as if it were completely obvious. "Ehh? Are you crazy? Do you have any idea how furious Usagi would be if she finds out what you are trying to do?" Makoto exclaimed. "It's a stupid idea," Rei agreed. Minako stay silent. Suddenly, Rei's face soften when she saw Minako's depressed face. "Why is this so important to you?" Rei asked. It was unusual to see her blonde friend so defeated over something.
"I never told you this, but just how you can see things in fire I have an special ability too. I can sense when people are in love, when they are meant to be, when they aren't, and even if they are soul mates although that's a little harder to tell. Those two are meant to be. They might even be soul mates!" Minako explained. The three friends stared at their best friend. "Minako… I had no idea," Makoto said. "Well in that case I guess it's up to us to set them up huh?" Rei said warming up to the idea. After all it couldn't be so hard. If Minako was right and those two secretly liked each other all they had to do was to get them to admit it. "Mamoru is the worst! I hate him. I hate him! I absolutely hate him!" Usagi exclaimed letting out the last of her pended up anger.
Would it be so easy to get them to admit their feeling though? "Usagi, you know there's a thin line between love and hate," Minako tried. Usagi's cheek turn bright red and she hissed, "That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard." Rei attempted to try and hide her snicker. Usagi reaction was just so child-like. Mamoru and Usagi reminded Rei of little kids when they like each other they tease each other. Rei wondered why she never noticed it before. Then again Rei never really thought much about the way the argued. "Think about it, Usagi," Rei teased. The five friends chatted and joked for a while. It got late so Usagi decided it was time for her to go home. "Bye, guys," Usagi told her friends as she headed towards her house.
As Usagi walked home she began to think about what Minako said about their being a thin line between love and hate. Usagi thought about the handsome black haired guy who loved to torment her. Minako was right. Usagi did love him, but that wasn't important Mamoru hated her, but when she thought back at Minako's quote it gave her a bit of hope, but it was silly. Usagi was much too clumsy and childish to interest Mamoru. Still she always thought of what it would be like to be in his arms and daydream of his beautiful deep blue eyes looking into hers. In fact she daydream more of him than Tuxedo Kamen. Usagi sighed and continued her way. Meanwhile, the four friends took advantage that their best friend had left to come up with a plan. "Maybe we could sent them secret admirer notes from each other?" Makoto suggested as the girls walked over to Minako's house.
Minako had invited them to sleepover so they could work on their plan. They decide to set it off in motion the next day because it simply couldn't wait any longer according to Minako. "That would be way too confusing though!" Rei pointed out. Makoto frowned. "What about asking Mamoru straight out and setting them up?" Minako asked. "Like Mamoru would ever admit his feelings to us!" Makoto scoffed. By the time the girls reached Minako's house they had thought of not one decent plan. The girls walked in to Minako bedroom and sighed. "This is way harder than I thought!" Minako exclaimed. "Yeah, those two are stubborn! It will take a real miracle to set them up!" Rei said. "Or a scare." Ami said.
"What do you mean, Ami?" Makoto asked. "Well, I think Usagi might would not be as aggressive towards Mamoru if they were put in a scary situation and Mamoru probably would feel bad seeing her cry and would not tease her," Ami explained. "That's brilliant!" Makoto said excitedly. "As expected of a genius!" Minako said happily. "So are we like supposed to push Usagi off a ledge or how will this work?" Rei asked. The grim atmosphere return. "Say didn't the Crown Arcade expand to a two story building?" Minako bought up. "Yeah so?" Rei asked. "Usagi is terrified of getting trapped elevators." Ami realized where Minako was going to. "We lock them together in an elevator!" Makoto exclaimed excited. The four girls began to come up with a plan.
Normally Usagi and Mamoru never went to the second floor of Crown, but if the girls told Usagi to meet them there for sure she go and as for Mamoru they decided to tell Mamoru that Motoki asked if he could get some boxes from the second floor. After that Makoto as Sailor Jupiter would cut the power while they were at the elevator. Ami said she could install mini cameras so they could check on the pair and know when to get them out. At least that was their excuse for it. The four friends drifted to sleep pleased with themselves. The next day Usagi received a bizarre call from Minako that demanded that she met them in the second floor of the Crown Arcade ASAP. Usagi got dressed in a rush, but still made sure to look nice after all she might bump into Mamoru.
The Sailor Senshi were prepared in place. Mamoru was drinking coffee in his usual spot and Usagi was at eyeshot. Rei and Ami were hidden behind a game machine. Minako quickly told Mamoru that Motoki had asked him for a favor and Mamoru got up. Mamoru thought it was rather strange, but didn't think much of it. Usagi was already in the elevator about to close the door when she saw Mamoru and waited. Perfect, Minako thought. The elevator door closed and Minako called Jupiter with her communicator. "Now!" Minako said. Soon enough the power went off in all the Crown. Usagi screamed as a huge Zap was heard from the elevator and it stopped moving. It was her worst fear. It was actually happening. Usagi felt tears flow out of her eyes. Usagi didn't want to cry in front of Mamoru, but she couldn't help it. Usagi was terrified.
Mamoru in the other hand was shock to see such a beautiful creature and the girl who haunted al his dreams crying. His Usako looked beautiful as tears fell across her face. He felt awful thinking that way when she was probably scared to death. The poor thing was shaking like crazy and her face was pale. His felt the sudden urge to hug her, but knew it probably upset her more. After all he was not worthy of her. Usagi was light that bought happiness to everyone around her while he was a bitter man who was always alone and distant from others. Add that to the fact that Usagi hated him for his daily teasing. It's wasn't like he meant any of it she just look so cute when she was angry and it was the only way he knew how to get her attention all of her attention towards him. "Are you alright?" Mamoru finally asked. Usagi was still shaking and didn't respond. He put his hands in her shoulders so she faced him. Usagi was shocked as those deep blue eyes looked down at hers. "Calm down. Breathe Usagi! We'll be out of here soon." Mamoru told her.
Usagi relaxed a little after all she was with the guy she loved plus they aren't insulting each other. Mamoru, her Mamo-chan was actually worried about her. Suddenly, she found herself staring at his lips. It be nice if he kiss me, Usagi thought suddenly. Suddenly, she was nervous for a completely different reason. Mamoru was too close. His presence was too much for her. It clouded her judgment. "Mamoru, thanks," Usagi said gracefully and smiled his way. She smiled. She had never smiled him because of something he did. It was the most wonderful thing in the world. Mamoru would give anything for her to always smile at him like that. Oh, how wonderful would it be if I could make her that happy all the time, Mamoru thought. The elevator suddenly beganto shake and Usagi fell into Mamoru arms.
She began to sob again out of fear. Mamoru couldn'thelp it his heart was going crazy for the girl he was holding. Her small body pressed againsthis felt so warm so good. Better than he ever imagine. Usagi calmed down after a few minutesand her heart began to speed up as she realized she was being embraced by Mamoru.She looked up and saw he had a pained expression. Mamoru was surprised Usagi didn'tscream for him to let go of her, but he knew that he and Usagi would never be. Shewould never love him that way. Suddenly, in a rare moment of weakness emotion overtookhim and tears began falling across his face. Usagi eyes widen at the sight of Mamoru crying.
Don't cry, Usagi thought desperately. He look like a child and Usagi just want to confort him and tell him it be alright. Usagi must have not been thinking straight. She must gone crazy. She didn't know what it was of Mamoru expression, but it gave her courage. She gently put her arms around his neck and pull him closer and kissed him. Mamoru was shock as she felt Usagi's sweet lips on his own. It took him a while to register that Usagi was actually kissing him. Usagi couldn't feel more happy than when she felt his lips kiss hers back eagerly and desperately as if his very life depended on it. They pull away slightly for air and stared into each other's eyes as if in understanding for each other feeling for each other. They kissed again and it felt like they been in love for years.
Suddenly something came out of Usagi pocket. The star locket Usagi always carried began to play. Mamoru stared at it in shock. If she had that if she had that… God, why hadn't he seen it before? "You're Sailor Moon," Mamoru managed. Then the same realized hit her as she looked at those deep eyes and the way her was holding her "Tuexdo Kamen?" she said. "You caught me," Mamoru said. "Mamo-chan, I… I love you," Usagi declared nervously. "I love you too, Usako," Mamoru replied. Out the of the elevator the Usagi's four best friends were gushing proud of their little plan. "Guys, isn't it about time we let them out?" Ami asked. The girls hushed her. After all it looked like they wanted to be there a bit longer.
