I wrote this one before writing Karma, Short Skirt and Blue Eyes. It is such a good theme!

EDIT: I JUST GOT A NEW BETA! SO, MY CHAPTERS ARE BEING REVISED! THANKS, OUTAI TABIBITO! - March 20, 2013.


7 – Things left unsaid

The Crown Arcade. The best video games in Azabu Juuban are there. It has the best milkshakes, also, and the best burger and coffee. It was a good place to spend an afternoon. Inside, a couple was arguing, like they did every day.

"Baka!"

"No, not really." she thought.

"Odango atama! You know, with that stupid attitude, you are never getting yourself a boyfriend! Who would want to date a chubby, dumb, potty mouth and rude creature like you? Because for sure you are no girl!"

"Ouch, I think I stepped out of line here." he thought.

The girl started crying and left the arcade.

"You are so insensitive and rude! How can you say such things to her? Do you think that because you are my friend, you can get away with it? I'm tired of it! I'm tired of having to comfort her every day after your fights."

"Motoki, I don't know what happens when I talk to her. My intentions are not to insult her, I just..."

"No, you are going to apologize to her. NOW!"

Motoki's look was so scary that Mamoru chose not to say anything and just left. He chased her for some time until he found Usagi sitting on a bench at the park.

"You are so beautiful, my Usako. But I'm afraid that I can't say anything now. I'm afraid I am too late. I teased you for too long. But, if I could, I would love you for all eternity.", the boy thought.

Mamoru sat next to her on the bench. The girl looked to him and started getting up, but he held her wrist.

"Usagi-san..."

"I love you." Mamoru thought, but he didn't have the courage to say.

"I'm sorry. I stepped out of the line and I didn't mean those things. Please, forgive me." he said.

Blue eyes met blue eyes and she felt a shiver down her spine. The boy's eyes were so difficult to read. The boy was so difficult to read. She loved him, and even though the boy hurt her every day with their arguments, she kept coming back for more, because she knew it was the only way to talk to him.

"Mamo-chan, I would forgive everything you did. I love you." the blond girl thought.

"It's okay, Mamoru-san. No problem."

He was way too nervous, and didn't know what to do. The truth is that he didn't know how to deal with people, and with her it was even worse. He looked her in the eyes.

"Please, Usako, truly forgive me. I don't think you're dumb, or chubby. I like your body. You're not rude, you just defend yourself. I get it." the thought crossed his mind.

Mamoru saw her soul there. Usagi was so easy to read. He now knew that she also loved him. She looked again and saw that he also loved her, and in an impulse, Mamoru ran away. He ran because he didn't know what to do anymore. Usagi stayed there, gathering the courage to go down to his apartment and say all the things she saw in his eyes but were left unsaid.
