Let's spell FINALLY! Here's the next chapter, my little darlings. Sorry for the lateness, my science mark needs to be pulled up. I have a 65! UNBELEIVABLE! Tis a terrible mark. Anyways, enjoy this chapter, eat chocolate and review! A little short, but my time is short. I'm so stressed with school and extracurricular activities, it's untrue. So, enjoy and REVIEW and make my life a wee bit happier.

DISCLAIMER: Sailor moon is not mine but my love for Haruka is. Heehee.

Mamoru took Usagi's hand and squeezed it lightly. He leaned forward and whispered in her ear, his warm breath ticking her sensitive skin.

"You are an excellent dancer." He whispered. Usagi turned to him and gave him a soft smile. She wrapped her arms around his neck as he placed his hands on her hips. They swayed to the music, their bodies pressed close together.

For a moment, Usagi pretended that she was with Haruka, and smiled at the thought. When they were younger and were forced to attend state balls, Haruka would dance with Usagi and tell her terrible jokes about the ambassadors and foreign royals, making her laugh uncontrollably.

She snapped back to reality and saw over Mamoru's shoulder and heard Michiru laughing at something Haruka said. She immediately felt cheerless and jealous, feeling that Haruka has forgotten her and decided to get friendly with Michi. She pulled away from Mamoru, murmured something incoherent, found Mina and Makoto and pulled them away from their conversations.

"Um, Usagi, we were just talking to-" Mina started to complain, but saw the estranged look on the princess' face.

Usagi quietly pulled on Makoto and Mina's elbows to the empty East Hall outside the gym. Usagi looked so uncomfortable and sported a nervous, worried smile. She wringed her hands together and looked away from her friends. Her friends looked at each other and shrugged their shoulders, unsure of the situation.

Usagi covered her face with her hands and took a deep breath, giddy and embarrassed. Makoto and Mina leaned forward to hear.

Michiru was having a great time. She got to dance with all her friends and the love of her life! She was so thrilled; she felt nothing could ruin her magical night. She checked the grandfather clock from the dance floor. It read 10:54pm. Michiru had a great idea. Maybe if I took Haruka outside, maybe we could talk and our relationship will become closer! She grinned to herself, proud of her plan. She took Haruka's hand and gently led him towards the East Hall, where the flowered pavilion lay.

"It's a bit hot in here, let's go outside!" She beamed towards Haruka.

He smiled gently, glad that his date was enjoying himself. Too bad he wasb't enjoying that much. He sighed to himself. He wanted to dance with Usagi, but he couldn't find her.

"Probably that jerk is making out with her." He muttered, and shook his head of the vulgar thought.

As they approached the East Hall from the North Wing, they saw Usagi, Mina and Makoto together. Haruka and Michiru looked at each other and quietly walked closer towards them, but not enough for them to see them.

Mamoru was confused when Usagi just tore apart from their dance and hurried towards her little friends. He was slightly annoyed, seeing that his charms weren't penetrating her as quickly was he thought. He had a feeling that Usagi would be in his total submission if it wasn't for the bastard Haruka. They seemed to have a strong bond. He decided to follow her and find out what's going on.

He followed them and ended up in the East Hall from the West Wing. He dared to lean as far as he could, so he could hear their converstion.

"This feeling I've been having has been tearing my life apart. I need to tell you guys because, well, you're the first ones I grabbed. This feeling is chicking my relantionship with Mamoru, and I think that if I let it out, it wouldn't bother me anymore. Okay, I like Haruka." She said really quickly and softly.

"WHHHAAA--?" They both gasped in unison, as if Usagi said she was pregnant. She uncovered her face and smiled sheepishly. "I thought you'd like to know. I needed to tell someone, it was tearing me apart."

"Then what about the Haru slash Michi thing?" Makoto queried, surprised that Usagi made such an outburst.

"Um, well, to be honest, I'm jealous." Usagi said, helplessly.

"Then how about Mamoru?" Mina frowned, "Do you like him?"

OH! The DRAMA! The DRAMA! Hahaha, I shall leave you here, and wait around a month before I continue to write the next chapter. Loved it? Hated it? LET ME KNOW!

You know you love me. # Hakura Princess and Gothic Halo
